Ok, it’s time for some retro gaming.

I saw once a GBA that had a cartridge with an USB-C port to put games inside without even having to disconnect it from the console.
Anyone knows if there's somewhere they sell that?

@Nawer_Rapter have you considered a Linux or Android handheld? The ones made by and are pretty easy to use and come with a ton of games, including GBA. I have an with that works great!

Right. Found some time and finished Donkey Kong Country on the and . The 55th and definitely final game finish of the year.

I think next year I’ll do DKC 2 and 3 as I’ve never played them.

My amazing girlfriend got me a #retro hand held for Christmas. So far been having a blast just getting it customized and applying some hardware mods (better back buttons, fix for a known D-Pad isssue, custom O.S. Etc)

Love my so much. Made this charging display stand for it. The one for the is on the printer now, with better settings. Will swap the cable out for a white one with the white plastic, and a black one for the black plastic.

A video of the charging dock in action a white dock sits on a wooden table. The camera pans over the top of the dock to reveal a USB-C plug inside the dock and a cable running out the back of the dock. A retro, game boy looking console is placed in to the dock with a satisfying clunk, and then starts to charge.

Different times, when videogames said “Please try again!”.

Ordered an ANBERNIC RG35XX Plus Game Console, which was recently released. Ironically I already have the original on its way, but of course they announce an improved version while mine is taking its time to arrive 🤦

For retro gaming on the move, looks to be a fun device which I look forward to exploring.

Never get sick of the game Super Mario World, could beat it with my eyes closed now. First game finished on my and the 48th game I’ve finished this year.

So I might be catching the bug.

I picked up a recently, and have been having fun getting that one working too. It is really pocketable and great for some of the lower end 8 bit systems.

My was the closest I got to game consoles until I bought my Xbox 360. Never owned any of the handhelds over the years. I'm realizing how much I missed out. And the fun part now is that I can have all those AND the Commodore games I remember.

The Ambernic is the direct competition, and I chose the Miyoo in part because of the Wi-Fi and the Net Play. I will miss the HDMI, but I've also decided that this one really is for the portable small screen experience.

So far so good!

Anyone from the community who can advise me?
I'm thinking of getting a console, but can't decide — or ?

According to the videos, the RG35XX is a nicer size, has better (warmer) display colors, and (probably) has better build quality. But the Miyoo has Wi-Fi (does it have any real use?) and runs games on it. But it's more expensive (and I couldn't find any official store).

And now I just don't know what to choose. 😅

Quick question for anyone who might know:
Is there a music player for the MinUI firmware on the Anbernic rg35xx?

Been sitting here since the 7th obsessively refreshing the tracking for my #Anbernic #RG35XX. It landed in Illinois on the 7th. Then nothing since then, just says “delivered to our shipping partner, USPS awaiting receipt of item”

Then out of nowhere… bam, late today it arrived at a USPS facility in Minneapolis!

#GameDad

Been putting off buying the SD cards and HDMI cable until it moved out of Illinois, but I didn’t think it would jump to Minnesota without passing through Chicago first.

Got really jealous when @hbons shared his gaming extravaganza. So even the old man is learning how to make a game.

My should be arriving tomorrow.
I have an SD card prepared with garlicOS and a bunch of games from my existing retroarch install , so setting up the card was quite easy.

I read it ships with a screen protector. are people using those, or just keep the screen as shipped?

Just did a search on whether anyone’s gotten Apple II disk images to run on an and found only my own lonely Reddit thread. Anyone? Anyone?

Who else is rocking an handheld console? I've got GarlicOS on mine and I love having access to so many different platforms on tap. And then I thought I can stream it more...

8pm BST at https://twitch.tv/NAG_Graham - every version of Rainbow Islands that I can find that's supported by the device is going to be played (hopefully). , , , , even the with everything in between. JOIN US.

I wish there was a way to see all the games that were done in PICO-8 so I knew which I could run on my RG35XX.
