If I want a handheld that can do SNES/Genesis/GBA/MAME (up to CPS2) but also has a nice touchscreen for playing ScummVM point n clicks, what's the best bet? Budget up to 100-150

Tiny Timbs posted:tbh I wouldn't really want to deal with all the tiny touch zones with a touchscreen that small anyway. Broken Sword worked decently on the DS with a stylus, though. Perhaps I should get a cheap Android tablet just for ScummVM instead. I used to use a hacked B&N Nook HD but it's hella old now and ScummVM stopped working on it.

Is the 2S likely to be able to do N64/Dreamcast well? I don't own a Retroid device yet but might pull the trigger for this one

Got my 40 quid MM+ from Temu, it only took about a week which is pretty good for something coming from China - usually stuff from Aliexpress takes 2 or 3. I'm impressed with the case I got with it - specifically moulded for the MM+ and seems fairly robust. I've not really done much tinkering with handhelds or custom OS before so don't have a lot of basis for comparison, but Onion seems like a phenomenal piece of work to me. Easy to use, looks great, so many features. The http server is particularly impressive, not having to keep taking the SD card out is a gamechanger.

MarcusSA posted:AliExpress is having a sale right now and if anyone was looking for a set top emulator you really can’t bes this That store won't ship it to the UK either and all the other T8s I can find on AE are much more expensive  . Anyone got any other recommendations for an emulation box around the same price point, or should I just stick with a Pi4?

My Firebat T8 should be here in the next couple of days, woo! Are there any good starter guides for setting one up? I don't have much experience with embedded PCs beyond setting up RetroPie on a Pi 3 once, but am fairly tech-savvy so can probably figure poo poo out. Should I be looking to wipe the stock Windows OS and install Linux? Anything else that needs to be done to get rid of any potential malware etc?

mariooncrack posted:What is your goal with the system? I expect I'll mostly be using it for emulators, especially MAME and N64 and things that don't run quite as well on a Pi
