The $49 Thumby Color looks like a miniature version of the Nintendo Game Boy Advance, but unlike other retro handhelds on the market, it’s not powerful enough to play classic GBA games.

How small can you shrink the Nintendo Game Boy Advance? That’s a question TinyCircuits is answering with the Thumby Color, a GBA clone measuring just two inches in size that still manages to fit a directional pad, shoulder buttons, a rumble motor, a 16-bit color screen, and the ability to link two of them together with a USB-C cable for multiplayer gaming. Unlike the myriad Game Boy and GBA clones released by companies like Anbernic, the Thumby Color is not an emulator.

It will also come with all the monochromatic games that shipped with the original Thumby back in 2021, which was the company’s ultra-tiny clone of the original Game Boy. The Thumby Color isn’t a handheld you’re going to want to play for hours on end, but it is one you can potentially sneak into any setting where you want a distraction — without trying to hide more conspicuous handhelds like the Steam Deck.
