    I have a lot of questions.

    Number one, how dare you?

        I’m pretty sure it’s an Anbernic RG35XX

          Yup, it’s the RG35XX.

          $55? Pretty acceptable to me. I’m in love with that bezeless screen

        That’s either a Miyoo Mini Plus or an Anbernic RG5XX. And if I’m not mistaken, it’s the latter.

    3DS is retro now. I am finally a boomer.

      Retro as in retro gaming I assume. It’s good for emulation and you can comfortably play DS games on it too.

      I mean, it’s a pretty solid 8 and 16 bit emulation device and can natively play GBA and NDS games. What’s not to like?

      It’s in quotes in the title. And the second is a hardware emulator. They’re all for emulation.

      I think it’s more that it’s an excellent emulation device.

    The 3DS was a beauty. Also the thumb stick had the best feel to it.

      In terms of their aesthetic, at least. Nuphy Air60 and the retro version of the Xtrfy M8 Wireless.

    I’ve got GC, Wii and WiiU covered by a soft modded WiiU.

    PSP and Vita with a modded Vita.

    And a modded New 3DSXL for all the portable nintendo platforms.

    Everything else I do on my PC.

      Oh yeah I love it. Very, very impressed with how great the build quality is for a device this price.

          Yeah, it’s nice. I’ve had it 2 years now. It’s sturdy, hasn’t broken yet. I’m not feeling the need to upgrade yet. If I was buying new, I’d get something newer. I was considering a GPD Win Mini, but $1000 is a lot and GPD has so many QA issues,

      The two gaming systems? They’re a “New” 3DS and an Anbernic RG35XX.

        How do you like the Anbernic? What made you choose that over the Miyoo Mini Plus? if you don’t mind me asking.

          I really enjoy it. I chose it over the Miyoo Mini Plus because, from my research, it has a better-quality display. The extra chin under the face buttons also adds to the comfort in hand over time, and I can confirm that it’s very comfortable. Additionally, I was able to find it for a cheaper price, which was just the icing on the cake.

        Thanks! Can’t believe I didn’t recognize the 3ds…… 🤦‍♂️ How do you like the Anbernic RG35XX??

          I love it. Its build quality is fantastic and it’s very comfortable. And using GarlicOS makes it perfect.
