Not much information or even photos available with these things, so I thought I'd share mine.

It plays real gameboy games. Emulation is alright. The sound isn't great, but it's okay.

The main problem is the clock speed, it's too fast. But other than that, it works quite well.

Could you please run a few tests for me?

Not the GBC ones obviously. Only the main ROM in each zip. (Not the singles to start with.) Save the SRAM after each ROM. It contains a log of the test. If you two have different versions of the hardware, and even if you don't, I'd like you both to run the tests. Hi-res images of the insides would be nice too.

I would happily do some tests, but believe it or not, I don't have any working flash carts.

As for pictures of the inside- I may crack it open later. I opened up a GBA clone once and the ribbon cable for the LCD broke after a very careful and gentle removal, and I don't suspect the materials used in this are very high quality.

You can see a picture of the transparent version of the unit at the bottom, which reveals some of the front PCB in all its lo-fi glory.

I like how it comes with a fake copy of Pokémon Gold. Classy.

Probably a really crappy fn translation, though.

It actually came with two boxed pokemon games. Both are in Japanese, so I can't test how well they work too easily.

One cartridge shell is warped. They both say "Nintendo Gameboy" on them which is somewhat uncommon for a pirate. (keyword: somewhat). The two pieces of the shell are different colors, which is neat. The front is a blue-ish purple, and the back is grey, and vice versa on the other one.
