I'm not allowed to talk about this game, but I made a screenshot.
Jokes aside, thank you to @takashioomoto for sending a bunch of ROMs to TeamEurope, not everything could be dumped, but we got this 101 handheld out of it. It's got all kinds of stolen content in it that we haven't seen in other units, I absolutely love it.
I made a video briefly booting each unique game Not everything works yet, so the overall status remains 'NOT WORKING' in MAME, but many are playable. It also has the unmodified versions of the games in that Lexibook Toy Story 3 thing that was added.

You know, one of my biggest concerns is that nobody seems to be actively archiving *current* retro software. Places like itch don't offer old version downloads, you can discover a game and find the only copy available anywhere is already 1.3, and nobody has kept the old versions
and that's if you're lucky enough your game gets noticed. This is made worse by things being put behind '0 price' paywalls, because it further limits the number of people likely to be picking up older versions as things are often not noticed straight away.
I've had other people express this concern to me too, so I'm not alone in worrying about it (and in fact I was alerted to the problem by some people in the Speccy scene expressing grave concerns over the archival of current software) but there doesn't seem a good solution.

Let's talk Dreamgear DGUN2573. We got good dumps from a few units. There are multiple revisions, where at least the menus graphics have changed. The sports games are all 'Panda' themed, but one of the units, presumably an older one, still has 'human' graphics in the menu.
In the case of 'Warrior' the incorrect graphic was used in the older unit (the title screen on this one is corrupt in both, not sure if that's an emulation glitch tho)
More changes to the 'sports game' menu pictures.

Zudu-Go / 2udu-Go. VT based thing with an initial 2-in-1 selection of 'Shudu' or 'Games' which branches out into a 51-in-1 games menu. Not sure who made the unit.
Has all your favourites including Magical Kitchen, Twin Cards, Cute_Fish, and X Ball
Fireman, and Hot_Speed (what's with the underscores?)
