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 think they've got a number of drawbacks, so that's why. IIRC they have a low refresh rate, and they're pretty pricy. For this application, where it's a small screen and you only need the one, and you'll only refresh it rarely, it makes sense though.
