Well, the most likely explanation is unfortunately there's a customer base for it.

The symbolism doesn't have near the stigma in Asia as it does in Western countries is also a likely explanation. I still remember being flabbergasted at the MST3K episode of the Invasion of the Neptune Men (Japanese sci-fi movie from the late 60s), that had a brief scene of a space ship crashing into what was in essence a Hitler building. A building with a giant multi-story portrait of Hitler.

It's a famiclone/nes on a chip so nope. It's just like those crappy TV GAME CONTROLLER 500-in-1 PLUG N PLAY with games built in that you saw all over the place a decade ago.

And they're still all over AliExpress, all of the cheapest GAMES BUILT IN stuff are famiclones/nes on a chips because they produced a billion of those chips so they have nothing better to do but just stick them in things.

Is that a loving trackball controller?

these loving dimensions are cracking me up man

Would probably be fun to mess around with for a project, but still; lol.

That actually could be useful for the marquee on my arcade cabinet. Looks like almost the perfect size to fit up there.
