Yeah, I love we can do that if we want, even though I don’t do it much myself

I used to be stricter with that. Now I consider retro any platform that are 2 generations behind (for the ones still active in the market). So PS3/360 and earlier.

I built one… for modern stuff. I got an IKEA utility cart, added a 27” monitor on top connected to a Steam Deck, Switch, PS5 and sometimes my desktop PC (it doesn’t go on the cart unfortunately).

I love setups like these! I almost never win the tv war at home, so I can have something on the side to play while watching something else with family.

I didn’t play the others to say it for myself. People have said exploration is more organic on the other games of the series.

I liked the gameplay but I disliked the mechanic of having to beat an arbitrary amount of bosses to unlock the next area.

Awesome! My first was Samus Returns on 3DS and I heard it isn’t the best to start with. I’ll try this one!

You can install another distribution on it and make the desktop the default boot option! It’s not how I would use it but it’s a major selling point for me. I’m not stuck with the walled garden, even in the default OS!

It’s a simple game but I’m having lots of fun in short gaming sessions.

That’s the major factor in play here for me to get it

I’m going to listen to the podcast and check it out later!

I loved mine so much!

Hopefully it has better buttons! I have a R36S and it has a nice screen and performance for the price but I dislike the buttons.

This is one I only know the name!

And here’s me replaying some of those and using save states like a mad man

RP5, but shipping is a pain. I can’t wait!

Looks great! I’m waiting for a Retroid to ship, meanwhile I have a R36S.
