I came across a post from Pixel Cherry Ninja on X of a new flashcart made by David Brito, who has turned this thought into a reality. David has a big history of modding retro consoles, having adapted N64s to be powered by USB-C, working with HDMI mods, and creating better controller solutions. He even made a built-in display for the Xbox 360 which is incredibly cool!

    I was just thinking that. It’s a cool idea but unfortunately it looks very much like what it is - a flash cart with a screen on it. Eink would’ve been a much better choice. Scaling rather than cropping the label, make the cart white so the unused eink display blends in a little better… could’ve been awesome instead of merely cool.
