If it isn't broken then they shouldn't be trying to improve it. That definitely doesn't look comfortable at all.

Hmm. I was just thinking about this.

I can either spend $80 on this clunky monstrosity with useless shoulder buttons, and still have to buy all the games I want

OR

I can buy a used Gameboy Advanced (or SP or Micro) and a good flashcart for approximately the same price.

The latter is legally questionable, but it will be on a familiar style and have all the games I want. And it's not like Nintendo will be losing money as i will be rebuying the games on my Wii U or Switch as that come available. And if I get a banged up Micro I can stick it on my car keychain.

Holy shit, why did nobody tell me about the Revo k101? It's the size of a Gameboy Micro and has link cable support. Granted it's Mini-USB and not micro-USB, and costs a little bit more now.
