According to the details, this is much more than just a retro game console that can slip into the small pocket inside your pocket that you don't really use for anything. This is also a took for hackers to create on an open source dev platform and for game creators to enter into a content for a €1,000 prize for the most innovative game added to their system. There's still time to donate and get in on one of the many versions they have, which will eventually start shipping out on May 15th, according to their page.
