But those Zimaboards doesn't have a screen, battery and controls and are not powerful enough to play Expedition 33 on Steam. If they do, then can you provide a link; I couldn't find one. As for the performance I found this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcxIwglW_x0 which shows Counter Strike playing very choppy.
They don't, but having one to hold in my hand, I can tell you that they are the same thickness as a gameboy but half as wide. Plenty of room for a battery and screen if you were to repack one into something as big as the original gameboy.
And are they powerful enough to play at the same level of Steam Deck, such as Expedition 33? It even has a trackpad. It's easy to say "oh they could have done this", but nobody else did other than this guy. With another battery, stronger CPU and such you have less room for active cooling in it.
