Retro Handhelds General Thread

There's gotta be some gems! And, of course, there's fan translations for quite a few games!

No console is bad because of a better console existing! The Wonderswan has it's charm in it's own way like pretty much any other console!
 
My Ayn Thor got here today. It's pretty neat. I will say dpad centric games that use the L/R buttons a lot are not comfortable to play at all.

But I will stick around with the device a while and then if I find that aspect a deal breaker I'll sell the thing to someone else. I do still have the Odin 2 Mini after all.

What do you plan to play with it? I'm curious to know if I can connnect an HDMI cable and have both screens on the TV.

Well I started a run of Sonic Rush on it, since I have a decent amount of nostalgia for that game.

As for the second part, I'm unsure. I've never actually done video out with any of these devices.

This rainbow model of the Ayn Thor reminds me of the new 3ds ll super famicom edition from japan. Very unique for an android dual screen handheld! If it had cameras on it, then it would be truly be the definitive version of the 3ds/dsi like it was brought to the modern day.
 
I'm very tempted by that Miyoo Mini Flip that's just come out. I may have more powerful devices but I'm a sucker for the clamshell form factor and it looks so much better without the garish sticks.
 
Thank you but, with all respect, I was asking something really different. We get that GBA was better in every single way.

Not that I'm expecting many people here to actually own it considering it was exclusive Japan, sadly. But it always affascinated me, especially for Klonoa, Digimon and the Final Fantasy I-II remakes.
wonderswan is actually dope as hell, play the chocobo raising game

Thats exactly why I still love my RG 35xx SP.
But the Miyoo Mini Flip is just a bit too small for me. The 3.5 inch screen on the SP is about the very smallest I can comfortably play and I honestly wish there was a 40xxSP.

I recently bought an RG35XXSP and am enjoying it. As it seems that we are all alpha and beta testers for these devices, my rule with a lot of them is that I really want to wait at least a year for the kinks to be ironed out, and for 3rd party OSs to be more stably developed before pulling rhe trigger.

I've got an RG35XX SP but I never really stuck with it. I think it started with trying Knulli twice and having tons of issues with it not picking up games for some reason, then I ended up just continuing to use my TrimUI Smart Pro while the RG35XX SP sat and gathered dust.

Maybe I'll try doing it as a daily carry and see how I like it, I don't know.

What version did you get? lite, base, pro? I was looking into this exact color way and they dont have it in lite and base (unless it normally doesn't come in that)

Ayn only does its additional not black color options in Pro or higher. I got a Thor Pro because I didn't want a downgrade in RAM from my previous Odin 2 Mini Pro.
