This USB HDMI Capture Card has been showing up all over the place lately, but is it any good?
No. No it's not.

A local favorite, it's Bauman's Loganberry Cider (Gervais, OR). It starts good, and just gets better as you get further into the glass. 6.0% ABV

I'm a handheld gaming nut. I love gaming machines that can fit in your pocket, so the concept of carrying every Game Boy game ever with me is enticing. Can it be done for $8? Well, I picked one up from WISH.com and another from eBay.
