Pi0cket TinyPi Pro is a gaming handheld launched in 2019. Powered by ARM1176JZF-S (1-core, 1.0 GHz), 512 MB RAM. Features a 1.3" IPS display (240 x 240). 400 mAh battery. Runs RetroPie (Linux).
Inside there is a single-core ARM1176JZF-S processor at 1.0 GHz, a Broadcom VideoCore IV GPU at 250 MHz and 512 MB of DDR RAM. This setup runs Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance and Super Nintendo games very well, and the platform list also covers the Nintendo Entertainment System and Sega Genesis / Mega Drive. PlayStation and Nintendo 64 are listed too, but the device struggles with 3D games, mainly from PS1, so treat those as experiments.
The 1.3-inch IPS screen has a 240 x 240 resolution, a square 1:1 aspect ratio and a density of around 261 ppi. The image is sharp, but the panel is very small, in line with the ultra-compact nature of the device.
Controls are minimalist: a cross D-pad placed in the lower half, four face buttons, no analog stick and no shoulder buttons. Power and menu share the same button, while volume and brightness are adjusted from the menu. There is no rumble, and audio comes from a single bottom-facing mono speaker.
The battery is rated at 400 mAh and charges over Micro USB. The console offers WiFi 3, Micro HDMI video output for connecting to a TV, and MiniSD card storage.
The operating system is Linux, with RetroPie support, a popular emulation front-end. Being based on the Raspberry Pi Zero/W platform, the console lends itself well to tinkering and customization.
Ideal for: DIY and Raspberry Pi enthusiasts who want a tiny pocket console for 2D classics on Game Boy, GBA and SNES, and who don't mind assembling it themselves.
