Got a Miyoo Mini+ a few days ago and I'm absolutely in love with this thing 😄

It's a pure nostalgia machine.
Has all the games I used to play as a kid on it and you don't even have to swap around cartridges anymore :awesome:

Received a Miyoo Mini Plus for my birthday a few weeks ago and I've been tuning it to perfection since then.

The fact is that I spend more time faffing about with these kinds of emulation devices than I do playing them.

I installed the preferred OS, OnionOS, refined the list of games to my Best Of, tuned my favourites list and am now scraping artwork for the selection menu.

There's still a bit more to do until it's in optimal running order but it's been fun and distracting getting it this far.

It's clear to me now that owning just a single is not realistic. It's more sensible to own ALL of them.

But how do you seamlessly move between them, keeping your saves and states?

Enter "Syncthing": https://syncthing.net/

Syncthing is available just about everywhere and keeps folders in sync between devices. I've just spent a few days getting this configured on my devices and it works (mostly) great!

Read on for some tips...

If you had to choose one game console to use for the rest of your life, which one would it be?

For me it would be the .

@jcrabapple some emulation thingy like my , does that count?

if not, then old PC games?

if that's out too, then probably SNES or N64. N64 becomes better through emulation, but SNES has better games.

I may have a type, and that type might be transparent smoke toys.

Not your typical use of the , but I spent so much time playing LMA Manager 2002 when I was younger.

I remember a single save took up all 15 blocks on a PS1 memory card. 😂

isn't going to replace as my most favorite game ever.

much too slow story - enemies don't feel dangerous, story sounds okay but develops too slow

I don't even feel like like the different combat is nearly the worst problem - would have expected that (love tripple-tech, hate real time combat like zelda)

This little device is utterly brilliant. That's Sonic 2 finished! 👊

davetansley, to retroid

My first hours with the Pocket 2S reminded me how easy setting up a was... Starting from scratch, having to install standalone emulators, doing far more config than any sane human should have to do...

But I finally got there, and ended up withwhat seems like a really nice device. Comfortable to hold, really excellent sticks and triggers, it runs everything up to and really well, and even a few games.

Now to actually play something...

I got a Miyoo Mini+ and I’m looking for game recommendations:

  • PICO-8
  • TIC-80
  • Homebrew NES, SNES, GB, GBC and/or GBA games (including GB Studio)
  • Worthwhile romhacks
  • Anything else??

Just discovered my can play and games. This is life-changing.

I've learned to lower my expectations with the Anbernic RG35XX when it comes to playing PICO-8 and TIC-80 games. Lots of them are fine, but some either run super-slow, or get errors when they run.

The ones that do work definitely work well, so I just need to focus on those.

(To be fair I didn't even know about PICO-8 or TIC-80 when I got it, so those are all just bonus games.)

@krystman @rasterweb @a_cup_of_sugar on the and supports both and . You can enable them using the Package Manager app.

Similar to on the , OnionOS uses the fake08 retroarch core for PICO-8. Whilst it is unofficial, and will not have perfect compatibility, it's my preferred way to run PICO-8 because it's Open Source.
