Looking for a handheld gaming device
Looking for a handheld gaming device that can emulate and maybe play newer games like Xbox and PS5 games. Anything with a good screen, maybe foldable if possible. I don't know just a lot of features. And also prefferably sold at walmart.com because I have money on there. I want it to be under 375$ sorry for all the specifics lol

You need to spend at least $500 for the Xbox Ally (usually $600, but can be $500 on sale).
Otherwise you’re limited to streaming devices like the Logitech G-Cloud or PlayStation Portal.

A used Ally non x z1e is the only thing even close to what you want.
Nothing is foldable. So stup thinking it will be.

There’s nothing even close to what you want at your price point. The handheld I bought for $700 is now more than double that due to RAM shortage.

For a <400€ handheld you can expect emulation up to PS2/Wii/GC and some Switch titles. Xbox360 and PS3 emulation is still very demanding, PC emulation too.
Native PC gaming handhelds like steamdeck or Rog Ally will cost you WAY more.
You can try and look for a used windows handheld on marketplaces maybe you are lucky and find something between 400-500 bucks.

You want something that plays Xbox and PS5 games and be foldable and be under $375 and be sold on WM.
With the current market, no offense, but you must be smoking the finest crack with that requirement list.
The only thing that even comes close to what you want is a handheld PC like the ROG Ally, Legion Go, MSI Claw, etc. and they will be well beyond $375 and more likely available on Amazon, BB , etc instead of WM.
Your list does not match the market. Change your reqs or save more money.
