Happy to help! Since it's a gift, you might be happy to hear that on the FPGBC you can pick her favorite color combination for the shell, buttons and even the color of the circuit board (for the clear shells).

Went to check the credits for Diablo 4 and they don't have a progress bar. I don't think I could make it through it.

I think so! At 40 minutes it's so long that I don't think anyone but the team members or their families would willingly sit through that.
At that point it should let people know how long it will take or at least have a progress bar or something.

The good thing is, the tech keeps advancing and whenever you want to get back into it you'll have a lot more to choose from, at hopefully more accessible prices. :)

That narrows it down quite a bit, basically to:
- Analogue Pocket (left): Very premium device. Impressive hardware but expensive and often runs out.
- FPGBC (right): The same format as a Game Boy Color but with a backlit screen and a rechargeable battery. You can buy it pre-assembled. Cheaper.

It's an incredible device but I would only recommend it to someone who is VERY commited, likes tinkering, wants to be able to play their own carts and has plenty of money to spare.

It can be intimidating because there are so many options. My suggestion is to define which console(s) you want to be able to emulate, have a general idea of your budget and your preferred format (vertical, horizontal, clamshell, etc).

But it depends what you want it for. If you're OK with emulation, retro handhelds have evolved a lot over the last years and there are accessible ones with a very similar format.

After a long search I ended up finding one in good shape and a decent price at a local second hand website.

It makes sense that it would be global. Sneezes are often associated with sickness, so the response is "Wish you health!" in the local language.

It's widespread.
I've heard it in Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Germany. Generally the expression either means "Health!" or is something catholic/religious. In Portugal it's mostly "santinho", which means "little saint".
