Retron 5 (aka 4)
SnesGuy:
Your pic is pretty ugly, this Black version isn't so bad though. Yea I've heard some bad things about hyperkin, but I've also heard bad about retro bit and I like my RDP and RD.
As much as I love original hard ware, I just don't have room to have half of what I want hooked up. (barely have room for the retro duo and Saturn thats there). I have a pretty decent genesis collection. never touch it because its a pain in the ass to dig out my genesis. (and the lcd in my nomad is acting up)
Also, was never a fan of GC. Would annoy me to hook it up just for the GB player.
If it does half of what its advertised as doing I'll buy two.
Guess I'll be the guinea pig, and if its good I'll sell you my spare xP
I just hope they don't go with that as the final controller design >_>

I know most everyone on the cover project has their systems proudly displayed. I myself keep my consoles stored away and primarily use 3rd party consoles for retro gaming. I've never had an issue with the 3rd party consoles thus far. So, I'm really excited about this.

Meh, I do not have much of a use for this, interesting GB support, but I got 2 GBPs and a SGB,.
The thing is fairly ugly though, kinda looks like a weird hat or something. I do not like how lumpy it is, and does everything have to be piano black nowadays?

The RDP? As in the Retro Duo Portable? Ugh, I hate that thing! It smells like a black magic marker, and stinks up the carts you plug in as well. And even if you can ignore that, it's super finicky! Most of the time games won't load without multiple attempts. And after all that, the battery is pretty underwhelming.
I could rant more, and I have (on Amazon), but I digress. These multiplat consoles are nice for people who don't think they can get their hands on the real consoles. But I'm not impressed.
