    I have one and, at one point, I had great hopes of getting the successor, the Pyra. Unfortunately, that didn't happen.

  7. Lilbits: Another Raspberry Pi handheld PC, encrypted RCS messaging between iOS and Android, and a foldable Logitech mouse

    If I had a nickel for every time I saw a new handheld computer powered by a Raspberry Pi, I’d have… at least a few nickels. It’s an interesting idea: take a credit card-sized computer and stuff it into a compact device with a battery, touchscreen, and maybe a keyboard and you’ve got a portable Linux PC.

    It’s also… a device that’s not really designed for mobile use. While Raspberry Pi […]

  8. New obsession confession: I have fallen down the rabbit hole of retro handhelds, but luckily I'm cheap so I won't buy every one that I want. Pretty sad to watch a YouTube review and then find the price of the device has gone up 50% or more since last year.

    I love my TrimUI Smart Pro and I have been playing PS1 and PSP games on it, but Game Boy games look a bit silly on a 16:9 screen. So when I found a good deal on a BATLEXP G350 I could not resist. It should arrive within a week.

    Not trying to start a collection (yea right!) but I can justify having two consoles because one is horizontal and one vertical. That still leaves me the loophole of getting one more with a 1:1 screen like the Anbernic RG Cubexx I've had my eye on...

  9. Working on my review of the AYANEO Pocket DS has made me want to go back to dailying the AYN Thor. Really nice little handheld.

  10. Bought another screen and I'm waiting for it to arrive. AAAANNNNDDD It won't fit either. Why do I keep buying these displays with PCBs on the back?! The display itself fits, but the PCB messes everything up.

    Wellp. Another week of mourning having to buy another one. Although I'm having fun with this project, I really need to earn more money. :)

    (Maybe I can separate the display from the board...? I'd need to buy a connector...but they are cheaper... Humm...)

  18. After spending a couple hours playing it’s kinda crazy to me how much better Xenoblade Chronicles 2 looks in handheld with Boost Mode enabled. Screenshots don’t really do it justice but the difference is significant.

    I’ve seen a couple people say that it’s almost like getting a remaster of the game and honestly I don’t think they’re all that far off. It looks *much* better.

    Even Rex was a little surprised.

  19. Rare Nintendo W. I can finally play Xenoblade Chronicles without getting eye cancer. This feature should’ve been there on day one, but I’ll take it. This update might’ve stopped me from selling my Switch 2—I’m dead serious.
