@weebdeluxe I recently bought the portable RG35XX and I have been rocking Emerald 🤩

I totally get what you're saying in the post, specially about portability.

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!

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

I never had time or headspace to tinker with my but it came with some preloaded games. I played a few, just to get the feel of it. I didn't own many consoles when I was young, so many old games are new to me. I found Fire Emblem 4 there and started playing it. It works fine, better than my Awakening clunky Samsung S22 edition lol. Ah, and rumors say will be remastered. I'll definitely get that. I'm sure they will do something with Awakening too.

@helligbird Oh, gotcha. Mine came with just one SD card. I ended up making two separate folders for some systems, one with my favorites and one with hundreds of games I will probably never play but can always explore if I want to…

I wrote up how I did that here: https://rasterweb.net/raster/2023/08/14/more-folders-for-more-games/

Here's my collection!

The purple Game Boy Color was my first ever game system, followed by the purple and then the blue SP. The original DMG needs some repairs and replacement parts, it was a garage sale pickup years ago.

I use the a lot nowadays, but I still try to make time for the . The mini handhelds can be a nice change of pace as well! Do you still like old school handhelds? Let me know!

@rootcompute not a single ? sorry, just teasing you a bit! 😃
wonderful collection, so nice to see new and old side-by-side.

Another PICO-8 update for running on the Anbernic RG35XX.

I had a game (Yarn) that worked fine, then eventually would not run, gave the "No carts found" error... But this time I found a fix.

I pulled the SD card and deleted the file found at Saves/CurrentProfile/saves/fake-08/cdata/yarn.p8d.txt and that fixed it.

So I guess sometimes the saved data becomes corrupt and deleting it fixes things.

Huzzah! A script works. I have a script that can run on the Anbernic RG35XX to delete a bad save file from a PICO-8 game.

It's not idea, it's got the name hardcoded, but it does work.

So I can write shell scripts for this thing? I have ideas...

Wait, wait... I should be able to check the directory then get the most recently modified file and just delete it.

So once a game's save file goes corrupt just delete it immediately.

Sounds like I've got a project for this weekend...

As I’ve been playing all these old games on the RG35XX I’m learning what kind of games I like. Games where I have to fight? No thanks. Games where I have to run around and find things and avoid obstacles? Much better. (Sort of like real life I guess!) I look forward to learning more about myself on this journey.

If just a week ago you had said:

"Hey Pete, you're gonna play a game called ”Grimace's Birthday” on a handheld console next week!"

I would have assumed you were completely drunk or just making shit up.

But I installed it on the Anbernic RG53XX I got a few days ago and played it today. Wild!

I've recently been enjoying the Amiga version of Lemmings on my retro handheld. It's surprising how many solutions to the levels I still remember after so many years!

Playing without a mouse is a bit tricky, but I've set the analog stick to move the mouse quickly, and then the d-pad moves it in smaller increments for fine adjustments. I also mapped some buttons to the keyboard controls for quickly switching between skills.

As someone that grew up with the MS-DOS version, it's interesting to hear how the music was supposed to sound!

(May not be any real performance improvements but I'll try it out anyway.)
