Hyperkin is once again resurrecting its SupaBoy SNES handheld, but it’s apparently just a “cosmetic refresh”

GamesRadar+ · 3 hours ago

Hyperkin is bringing back its SupaBoy handheld, a portable device designed to play original Super Nintendo (SNES) cartridges, marking another revival of the long-running product line. However, reports indicate the new version amounts to little more than a "cosmetic refresh" rather than a substantial hardware upgrade, meaning existing fans of the handheld may not find much new to justify a fresh purchase.

The SupaBoy has been reissued by Hyperkin multiple times over the years as a way for retro gaming fans to play their original SNES cartridges on the go. Beyond the description of this latest edition as a cosmetic update, further technical specifics, pricing and release details were not confirmed in the available report.

  • Hyperkin is relaunching its SupaBoy SNES handheld console again.
  • The new version is reportedly just a cosmetic refresh.
  • No major hardware changes appear to be included this time.
