To be fair, Hardkernel is actually really good about making their products hackable and making what they do open. This model grew out of the original GO, based on ESP32. Look at how they've left GPIO accessible, offered a mini keyboard (no longer visible on the site) to slot into the GO and provided loads of examples and project ideas [1]. That makes sense when you're stretching the limits of very modest hardware. The difference is that the SoC powering the Advanced and this new variant is powerful enough for Linux distributions. So I'd say the spirit is in the right place - they're not just smashing out cheap crap preloaded with copyrighted material. But this is their most "finished" gaming specific product, so they're not much point showing other things it is capable of. Are there really much in the way of legitimate Linux games which can be demonstrated to run on the hardware? [1] https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-go/ https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-go/
