That looks smaller than a Game Boy Micro. Retro gaming for ants.

A dump of the firmware (easy with an RP2040) should provode some hints as to what it's running.

I have one of these, and I was able to poke around with picotool.
Here is the output of picotool info -a:

I was also able to dump the firmware. I believe it is likely to be a fork of Pico-GB by YouMakeTech on github, although I'm not positive. I have not been able to find the codebase for this specific firmware yet.
