There's tremendous value with the 360/PS3 area. Since resolution hit 720/1080p.....I think a lot of games are going to be much easier for the typical person to pick up and start playing.....even though the graphics might not be up to snuff with current systems. I have probably around 20 or more PS3 games that I never played.....but picked up for dirt cheap at gamestop over the years. Eventually I'll try them out.

It’s hard to hold a candle to the value of older systems but my PS3 got years of legit love and adoration. The Uncharted and COD games were so god drat good for the time.

hell yeah. grabbing whichever of these releases first between the miyoo and the anbernic unless we get some kind of important difference in specs other than sticks/no sticks.

Looks like it's the same thickness as an og SP, the screen half is just thinner

The Anbernic one probably has a faster cpu like the 28xx.

Sorrowful be the heart
I spent way too much time figuring out how to get Streets of Rage Remake to run on Onion OS on my Miyoo Mini (most of this time was spent trying to figure out how to create a new save file in the Onion OS port of the game that's floating around that comes with everything unlocked) and now my hands hurt from playing a tiny beat 'em up. Is the Mini + significantly more comfortable and/or worth buying at this point? I'm guessing a future Onion port to the a30 is theoretically possible but that looks pretty tiny too.

Honestly, I didn't find it much better. You could try getting a grip off of amazon/etsy/ebay/whatever for it as that does tend to help. For a gripless device, I find the RGB30 much more comfortable to use for extended periods of time (I haven't had the charging issues others have mentioned).

I've successfully run SoR Remake on my RGB30, but I haven't worked out how to make it display the proper aspect ratio. Everything is stretched to 1:1 :psypop:

There's a file that in defiance of god is in the "mods" folder in the game files called system.txt that has some options for display settings, you could try changing it to "auto" or "desktop" and see what it spits out. In my experience though it will probably do something hosed up instead of what you want it to do.

Honestly if the hinges are good and there’s decent sleep/wake I will too. My 2DSXL rules so hard for that alone, adding the capability to my entire retro library would be so good.

I’ve successfully installed like 30 games on it; a mix of ps1, Sega cd, tgcd, and saturn. No issues, halts, freeze ups etc. so I think all of the issues I had with it were janky firmware.

4 different SP colors

(I really dislike Anbernic use the 35XX on all their low end devices, should be RG354SP, anyway I will just call it Anbernic SP)

This big TLDR on this is that it plays up to PS1, maybe some PSP/DC, 5ghz wifi, multiple Bluetooth connections and HDMI out.

Hope this guy has small hands and the thing isn’t as big as it looks.

Hell yeah, confirmation that it would have Wi-Fi is really all that I was waiting on (because I like retro achievements to encourage me to stick with a game instead of just dabbling for half an hour with everything).

I am holding out for a burnt orange version, or somebody offers an aftermarket case for it. Or somebody figure out how to fit this in a SP shell.

Grab one from Amazon with a reputable name; Samsung or like a Sandisk. I grabbed a Samsung EVO Select from Amazon and haven't had any issues, currently on sale too!
