i am back with my findings

the Anbernic RG35XX is a really cool device that can run nes, snes, ps1, gameboy, etc pretty well. clocking in at only $55 USD

i am currently most interested in the Retroid Pocket Flip. it's more expensive at $164 USD but i really like the clam shell design. it supports more systems and has some really cool features like being able to run android apps (netflix, etc)

very interesting. how do you load these things with all the games? just usb into your pc and then transfer all the roms?

that is my understanding but i'd have to look into it a little further to make sure it's that simple. i also need to procure a good source of roms. i will return with new information at an undetermined date.

i used to have all the roms for all the systems at one point just ... because

it seems like emulation starts to struggle when you reach the ps2/gamecube era but some games run well apparently

[User]

i have only done up to ps2, when i moved to myanmar in 2016 i had controllers and a ps2 emu and used to play fighting games when people came over

[User]

hmm i guess that is the origin of the chili cheese fries

[Z's bouncy tits]

MAME is pretty darn good.

played through xmen arcade and TMNT arcade with my buddy last weekend, was awesome

[jawn galliano]

my roommate had the xmen one like 10 years ago after it was re-released on uhh ps3 i think? i didn't feel like it really held up at all, very one-dimensional. was fun to play in the arcade as a kid but did not enjoy it one bit as an adult

[deckard]

didnt know it was re-released, the game is ok but the music is first class

[Z's bouncy tits]

Need some mame games for the Anbernic.
