ITT we post any interesting/weird/terrible consoles designed to either be a clone of an existing console, or a console with emulation that comes bundled with games.

I'll start off with the Power Games Penguin, this little guy is a Famiclone from China, not a terribly good one either, but I've always enjoyed the fact there's a console out there shaped like a penguin for no apparent reason.

I like Famiclones and I tend to buy them when I see them super cheap. I have three that I really like believe it or not. One is just a Retro Duo but it's nice that it also plays SNES and uses SNES controllers but it's pretty well known. I kind of recently picked up a Power Joy model I'd never seen before that instead of being built into a N64 shaped controller (I have at least 3-4 of those) is built into like a PC flight stick shaped controller. It's pretty neat. Then probably my weirdest one is a King Game Computer 2 which is a keyboard Famiclone. The included game has a typing tutor and actually does mouse control. It's somewhat disappointing that you can't control regular Famicom games with the keyboard and have to use typical 9-pin Famiclone controllers though.

Actually remember owning an original Power Joy, got any pics of the one you found?

I highly recommend the GB Boy Colour. The backlit screen is the shit.

I have a dozen famiclones, but I still haven't been able to get this one. I would really like to have this damn penguin. Or the one shaped like a car.

Game Engine definitely has the best design, though.

Those ones like that with the zapper built in are the model 2 I believe. The one I found is called the "Navigator" and there's one I'd seriously like to pick up (for under $5) called the "Voyager" that's shaped like an OG Game Boy. The screen it comes with doesn't even play the Famicom it just has some brick games built in you can switch it over to but I'd swap it out for a cheap color composite LCD.

Hm. I decided to check ebay and it looks like the Voyager uses GB sized carts so I wouldn't be able to pin convert. I might as well just by an Aliexpress handheld for like $15 brand new and save myself the labor.

the only turn off for me is that ugly "GB Boy Colour" written below the screen.

any decent GBA knock off? preferably with the same form factor as any of the GBA incarnations.
