I'd never heard of OpenBoR until I got my first Anbernic but now it seems like everything supports it. Are there any OpenBoR projects generally considered to be must-haves, or is it a Zelda Classic kind of thing where it's basically just a novelty that occasionally manages to produce a few inspired moments amid a sea of overly limited and amateurish design?
The latter, but there are some gems. The most popular and well-made games generally merge whole series together into big megagames, like Streets of Rage and Golden Ax. There's also a badass Double Dragon game that adds a bunch of pro wrestlers, and grappling. You can throw dudes around as Andre the Giant

Is the anbernic arc saturn controller thing more powerful than the retroid 2s?

Pretty sure it's not quite as powerful. Real pity, cause if it could more competently handle the Saturn it'd be a must buy.

If they do an upgrade they can model it on the Saturn analogue controller. Make it the size of a plate and put enormous triggers and that weird ball/stick on it.

The RG-ARC is basically the same internals as the RG353 series of devices so definitely not

Ugh this would be my dream, especially if they used the screen from the RGB30. Just a big dumb rectangle with the same layout as the analog controller on either side.

Ayaneo have a dual screen device coming out (they even called it the “Flip DS”) but it’ll probably cost a fortune.

I think it's just easier / cheaper to buy an actual DS/3DS and put CFW on it at this point to play that stuff.

pricing on 3DS is still pretty variable. I've seen them go for $150 all the way up to $450. So Ayaneo might have a market in a year or so.

The Saturn was actually a flop because they couldn't charge for analog stick drift repairs. Single-handedly put Sega out of business.

Anbernic just announced a horizontal version of the RG35XX Plus, the RG35XX H, seems to basically just be them sticking the guts of that into the RG351P case

How does it compare to other older RG350 variants?

Being able to hook up to the TV and connect to 3, 4 bt controllers is nice. Is this new? Can the RG ARC do this?

odd that the regular gets android 11 and the pro gets android 13, when going by wikipedia the D900 launched slightly more recently than the D1100
