Had to get the red brick as soon this idea of an akira themed Brick popped into my head. A purple Evangelion themed one would be so sick too!

Running bricktube on it! Can watch the whole movie!

Finally decided on a show that I’d enjoy carrying around everywhere: Courage the Cowardly Dog (1999) which originally aired on Cartoon Network.

The folding shape of the SP really works for casual viewing too!

I've never tried eating out by myself. I've never tried Korean Fried Chicken. I've never tried soccer games or rom hacks of soccer games. When there's something that you haven't done and you feel the urge, do yourself a favor and do it. It might be your next favorite thing. ❤️

This is so nice, snagged a 12gb/256gb for 225 OTD, (262 shipped aliexpress, and 15% cash back from top cash back $38) = 225 in the end, I really wanted a handheld for ps1/gb/gba/gbc/ps2. I want to play a dozen jrpg like legend of dragoon, final fantasies, and pokemon. I think I really made the right choice. It hasn't turned fan on at all, and I did remove the mesh though and updated it.

What emulator program s should I be using? I deleted everything off the device except duck station and retro arch. I did order a grip case, this feels ok in hand, not bad at all. but it is heavy and a case will help with that if I have something to hold onto. I really debated between nova and this, and I know the nova has OLED etc, but this screen is fricken nice, and it's large. not sure if id want a smaller screen now, if anything maybe a 5 inch 4:3 one day hopefully someone comes out with.

I am very happy to be an rg477m after my first hour of set up and use. even the speakers sound great to me. the nova would have been 300 dollars, for 12gb and 128gb memory.

Here is a kind of part two to my previous videos. I wanted to post a quick video of my little gaming set up in action. I took a cheapo Dell Chromebook 3100. I am playing my Anbernic RG40XX H on the Chromebook using an HDMI Cable, going into an HDTV HDMI Video Capture Card. And to round things out, I am using a cheap PS3 style game controller. So now my Anbernic RG40XX H is acting like a stand along game console.

A little more explanation. The reason I am playing my Anbernic device through my Chromebook is because, yes, my Chromebook can do emulation. And I do plat emulated games using RetroArch Version 1.22.2. But, at the end of the day. The roms simply play smoother on the Anbernic device. The Chromebook does have a more robust CPU than the Anbernic, but the Chromebook's CPU is being shared for many other tasks in the background. So there can sometime be some lag.

Also, you may ask why I don't use a TV. Well I don't have one. I was recently released from federal prison and am still getting on my feet. So, I am using a Chromebook that was gifted to me, and everything else I have to make this set up work was pretty cheap.

Just wanted to share my set up in action guys. Thanks for all the kind words of encouragement on my last post. You guys rock.

Currently getting back into Phantasy Star II, both the main game (with improvement patch) and the translated text adventures.

I like the cast of characters and the world building here. It's just a shame that they didn't emphasize character interactions/development and the storytelling that much in-game, unlike how Phantasy Star IV got it right.

What's changed:

Significant FPS boost (increased from 6 FPS to 13–16 FPS)

Code optimized for the Data Frog SF3000

Lightweight game ISOs now load! However, loading complex ** **games like God of War will cause a crash.

Une vraie pépite de hack rom. Il semble y avoir un post game donc l’ai-je vraiment fini ?

Once I made the Brick Pro review and added u/Next_UI I just kept filming, because I became obsessed. This is a wonderful custom firmware with community support that'll surprise you

Device: Miyoo Mini Plus

Not sure if this goes against community guidelines, but climbing on the meme bandwagon + Thor appreciation post

So, Armada OS just released! This is pretty much everything I've wanted out of these handhelds since I first got my RP4+! It's basically just Steam OS for ARM based systems, and it seems like a good portion of games run really well after only being available for a few weeks. So, I want a device that can run it! (Ignore the fact that I already have it running via an unofficial fork on my RP Flip 2, I think he's a bit underpowered for this job. He'll be getting sold soon 😅)

So, the choice is between the Retroid Pocket 6 12GB and the Ayn Odin 3 8GB. It's a real face-off! One has the better RAM, one has the better CPU. I prefer the smaller size and smaller price of the Retroid, but the more powerful CPU on the Odin is calling to me.

I already have an ROG Ally X, so I don't want to spend too much on a secondary device. I don't think I could justify spending the used Z1E cost for a system getting half the performance. The primary point of this device will be for taking it on the go in situations that the Ally is too big for (most situations). I understand going in that I'm absolutely not getting the same performance.

What do you all think?

Hope you all are having a good day, don't forget to carve out a little time for yourself. Im playing the unofficial pc port of gears 2 on my rog ally z1e

I got this crazy set up to work. I know that many people will question why I'm choosing to even have an entry level Dell Chromebook 3100 in this set up at all. The easy answer: I'm broke and I don't own a tv. I was recently released from federal prison and am getting on my feet.

That being said, I wanted to share my set up with you. I truly didn't think I would be able to get this to work. But check it out. I am using my Anbernic RG40XX H like a regular game console. I bought a HDTV HDMI Video Capture card. My chromebook does not have any HDMI inputs, so I had to use the capture card. I also had to get a HDMI to Mini HDMI cable that runs from my Anbernic console to the capture card. I also have a knock off wired game console going into the type c input of my anbernic.

Once I have everything connected, I then had to go onto a website called NERDZAP. I had to use this site to see and hear the images coming from my Anbernic. And it works.

I actually had some guys tell me this couldn't be done on another post, but i made it happen with the help of Chat GPT4. And my computer looks like hospital patient with all these wires and cords coming out of it. I dont really know how to upload videos on here, but if I can figure out how, I'll gladly post one. But these are pictures of my set up.

I was also able to just go and get the RetroArch emulator on my computer, and that is what I did for quite awhile. But I already have thousand of games on my console, including the completely full 128gb micro sd card that has tons of Sega Dreamcast, PS1, PSP and Segat Saturn games on it. Not to mention the NES, SNES, GB, GBC, GBA, N64, and yes, Virtual Boy games I went and downloaded myself. Also, my Anbernic seems to run most of these roms better than my chromebook does. Granted, the Chromebook has a more robust CPU, but the CPU isn't completely dedicated to gaming. So playing games in this ridiculous way seems to work. And it will do until I can finally upgrade my system and get a decent TV.

Anyways. I just wanted to share this with you. I'm quite excited because there was some trial and error that went into making this work. Today, I got it working. And it all came down to the website I ended up using to get both Video and Sound to work. For a few days, I could only get the video to work. Then I decided to stop asking Google AI. Went and asked Chat GPT and that AI got my stuff working on the first try.

Side note. Google AI has absolutely no problems giving you false information and straight up lie to you. Plus, it loves giving me outdated information. For some reason it thinks that I am using some ancient version of ChromeOS. I can't tell you how many times it sent me to a location on my chromebook, what I'm trying to find not being there, then tell me how there were lots of changes in the latest updates to ChromeOS. Like, really? Why not just tell me the latest info on the latest OS?

Well, I'm off to play so Conker's Bad Fur Day, for old time sake. Peace!

Odroid Go Advance in Turquoise colour really does look beautiful both in indoor and outdoor lighting. Anyway i have been playing Dyna brothers 2 on the japanese language and have been wondering if it ever got translated in english.

Greetings folks,
Just looking for some opinions/recommends for getting a retro handheld for my mum, who was an avid Game Boy fan back in the day. She still has her two original Game Boys, but the battery life and screen brightness make them a bit hard for her to play now.

I was looking at getting her a retro handheld and loading all her favourites onto it, and so far I think the Anbernic RG40XXV is the likely candidate, running Knulli. But are there any other bigger screen/chunky formfactor handhelds folks would recommend, as well as any other custom OS/themes that are easy to navigate/picture based and minimal, ideally with boot shortcuts to make navigating things easy?

Thank you in advance!

Hey everyone, looking for some guidance before I buy.

I'm looking for a handheld where PS2 and Dreamcast run without any problems — full speed, no weird slowdown or compatibility headaches. I don't need PS3 or anything above that, so I'd rather not overspend on power I won't use.

I did some digging on my own and landed on the Retroid Pocket 6 and Odin 2 Portal as candidates (but I don't want to anchor too hard on just those two). Any recommendations between these two?

I'm not trying to build out a massive multi-console library, this is mostly about PS2 and Dreamcast specifically. Budget is flexible-ish, roughly in the $150–300 range, but happy to hear about outliers on either side if they're worth it.

Thanks! 😁

Hi, i just got my console, and i want to buy a screen protector for it, the problem is that all of the protectors i've seen are too glossy, and i hate glossy screens, i was thinking of maybe buying a generoc matte screen protector for it, but i don't know if that's a good idea.

Recently I've been wanting to pick up a handheld but one that looks and feels close to the Gameboy/Gameboy Color. I'm not looking for a million systems to emulate I'm just fine with something that can run just up to gba would be perfect anything else would be considered a bonus. The Handhelds I've looked into are the TrimUI Brick as well as the Miyoo Mini Plus even considered the RG34XX.

Would any of these be a good fit for someone like me with big hands? Also if you have any recommendations would be awesome.

Just an unboxing video. Nothing super special.
