This is a cool idea, the clamshell would make it a lot easier to toss into a bag or something without needing a case but that particular design doesn't feel like it'd be the most comfortable to hold while playing. I think it'll be interesting to see if anyone iterates on this idea at all.

Yeah, I can feel my palms hurting looking at those corners. Still is a cool idea though, growing up with the GBA and DS left me with a nostalgia for clamshell handhelds.

I'm hoping that whatever Valve is doing with the Index, people will get working on Ayn Thor, so I could finally upgrade from my 3DS.

Yes, I've got Slay the Spire 2 working on my Thor with this method.
