Hyperkin SupaBoy SFC is a gaming handheld launched in 2018. Features a 4.3" LCD display (480 x 272). 2500 mAh battery.

The Hyperkin SupaBoy SFC is a handheld launched in 2018 with one clear purpose: playing original Super Nintendo and Super Famicom cartridges wherever you are. Instead of software emulation on a generic processor, it relies on a SNES-on-a-chip architecture that recreates the classic console's hardware.

The 4.3-inch LCD screen, with a 480 x 272 resolution, gives 16-bit games a generous viewing area. The resolution is modest by today's standards, but it suits the retro character of the SNES library. Audio comes through dual stereo speakers, and a 3.5mm jack is available for headphones when you want to play quietly.

Measuring 189 x 88 x 38 mm and weighing 280 g, the SupaBoy SFC is a substantial device, thicker than most modern handhelds, which gives it a solid feel in the hands. The controls include 4 face buttons in the spirit of the classic controller.

The 2500 mAh battery delivers around 5 hours of play, and recharging is handled through a Micro USB port. The console can also double as a living-room system: composite AV output connects it to a TV, while two controller ports allow two-player sessions on the big screen.

The SupaBoy SFC is built around physical cartridges via its SNES/SFC cartridge slot, so there is no ROM library or operating system to set up. Insert a cartridge, power on and play, a straightforward approach for collectors who want to enjoy their original games.

Ideal for: collectors of Super Nintendo and Super Famicom cartridges who want to play their original titles on the go as well as on a TV with a friend, without emulation or complicated setup.
