I had one of these, though it was branded and blue, but the case was the same. Worked pretty decently until I plugged the wrong AC adapter in and all the magic pixies escaped. The interface was crap though and could only be navigated by the tact switches on the side and I could never get it to fit an older, rounder CRT TV very well.

Something like this might be a bit more elegant:

Now that's a truly interesting retro setup. Thanks for sharing. Which resolution are you using from the XD hdmi options?

in GPD XD
HDMI: 720p
in emulators/games: Video: full Screen (16:9) Although later on the CRT TV appears in 4: 3 format

The converter does rescaling HD at low resolution
