Hi, I was scrolling through eBay and found a lot of these:

and things of the like.

I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but does anyone know if they're legit or not? Do you guys know anything about them? Anything would be appreciated.
Thanks!

The Chinese are very good at making copies. It looks like here they copied the body of a PSVita and it probably has some cheap computer or razberry pi running an emulator with roms inside. By no means are these legit but I bet they will work and probably contain hundreds of illegal roms on them.

I recently watched a documentary about a guy building an iPhone in china, he was able to make a near perfect clone for about $300 dollars by going to Chinese electronic markets, where basically it was a flea market with electronic parts. Very interesting stuff, very interesting electronics culture.

Here's a cool little pic of a Chinese Hard Drive, from the outside it looks like a legit samsung HDD but alas its not lol. Ton's of stuff like this. I remember seeing tons of mall kiosks selling these little gaming consoles that had 100's of Sega and Nintendo games on them. They were quickly shut down once the larger companies heard about this stuff.
