Retroid Pocket Mini received an update for Android 13.
I was hoping this update would enable pure black mode (which looks awesome on the borderless display of the black model). But it turns out that feature was added in Android 14 😢
I really wish retro handhelds were supported by FOSS Android distros like LineageOS.
Still, I'm quite happy with the update. This time I decided to try Molla launcher (https://github.com/sinusinu/Molla) and ES-DE 🙂

Modded my RP Mini with PlayStation buttons.
I used buttons for the Odin 2 Mini from SakuraRetroModding on Etsy. They fit without any modifications, except that the original buttons are glued to the membrane. Thankfully, it's easy to unglue them by cutting through the glue with nails.
The new buttons are quieter, have a lower profile, and feel similar to an Xbox controller overall. I'm really happy with the mod!

Mastered Super Mario Bros Mini!
It's a port of the original Super Mario Bros from the NES to the Game Boy Color. The physics feel very nice, and I like how the sprites are adapted.
The port also extends the game. After the 8 original worlds, Quest B adds 8 more with new enemies, mechanics, and even bosses!
I had so much fun playing it.Also, the game is FOSS: https://github.com/Mico27/SuperMarioBrosMini

Bought a Retroid Pocket Mini. I just wanted a pocketable device.
Originally, I wanted to order the white color but ended up choosing the black one because it makes the bezels and pillar boxes blend into the case. It also looks like a small SteamDeck 😅
I'm wondering how my game will perform on it. It has gamepad support, although I still need to implement cursor movement with a stick
When I'm not programming, I'm playing GTA III on it and earning RetroAchievements 😃
