You want to know what I see? A mindless consumer with no drive or vision outside of just owning things he believes that others covet, even if that means owning hilariously overpriced devices which nobody else wants and expressively so. I see someone who just buys things and hopes some of those things become popular and hard to find, simply so he can say he owns one, not because he actually enjoys using one but merely enjoys owning one. Like this infamous Rosalina Amiibo dude.
"HAHA, I OWN THE ANALOG POCKET AND YOU DO NOT."
"Yah we don't own it by choice, we don't fucking want it."
"NOOO, YOU WANT IT, YOU WANT IT SO BAD, COPE AND SEETHE THAT YOU DON'T HAVE ONE BUT I DO, PLEASE IT MAKES ME FEEL VALUED."
Literally anybody here could afford and buy an Analog Pocket if they wanted to. The key is none of us fucking do because it's not a good product. And now you're stuck trying to justify your purchase of it without admitting what a knee-jerk consoomer you are. If you genuinely enjoyed playing videos games on it, you would be using your spare time to play video games on it, not obsessively shitpost and schizopost on 4chan about owning it.

Imagine buying something because you think owning it will make you popular.
And then literally everybody laughs at you for owning it.
And then you gotta triple and quadruple down on your purchase because it was a large financial and emotional investment for you.
And yet you never actually fucking use or enjoy the thing even regardless of other peoples' opinions of it and you for owning it.

If you are a vertislop enjoyer like me who likes prefers the Game Boy form factor it's no biggie.

Remember display size is diagonal, so for 4:3 games, a 4" 4:3 display will give you almost the same as a 5" 16:9 display, just without the added width (the 16:9 came out to 6.2" in height, literally just one tenth taller)

I forced myself to be ambi with M&KB for aiming and it's not just a case of switching left/right click. Your brain has to deal with the total reversal of actions, UI & UX can also play a bit of a role when you look at the way menus are aligned.
A common way to align a mouse is to place it on the outside and drag inwards toward a keyboard but the arrow is reversed and it can fuck with you and so some people use flipped cursors.

I don't recommend people learn to be fully ambidextrous with a computer. It's interesting to see the challenges of your brain clashing with these design problems but it's utterly pointless for 99.99999999% of the population.

I adore the idea of micro/nano handhelds so god damn much, but there are too many details with the GBAmicro that just makes it unappealing to me specifically. The glossy DSlite/DSi plastic, the screen being so teensy, the Start and Select button placement, and the one time I did actually hold and play one it felt like a more slippery version of the basic bitch US NES controller. Meanwhile, shit like the Miyoo Mini is near perfect, just being vertical makes holding it in two hands too cramped while a horizontal version would be perfect.
But to be entirely honest I have tenfold more interest in the RG28XX than the Miyoo Mini horizontal that's (eventually) coming out. The Hori Miyoo Mini's entire shell looks like ass, what the absolute fuck is with those raised edges on the entire front of the shell?

“Retro” means “old”. If the DS is considered an “old” console, which to most people right now, it is, and to people 1000 years from now, it definitely will be, then the DS is retro. That’s my opinion, and neither you, nor the mods, have the power nor the charisma needed to change that.

>/hhg/ truly is just discussing modern emulation handhelds specifically.
Which makes very little sense really

You can discuss brand new, high tech devices (which is already a huge stretch, it's as far from the concept of "retro" as it gets really), as long as you pretend their one and only purpose is emulating 20-30 years old consoles.

I mean I get how we got here, those chinese handhelds arguably started as low tech novelties for retro enthusiasts but the market is now flooded with state of the art laptops in handheld form, and there's a growing overlap between Steam Deck clones and top tier emulation handhelds that are more and more capable of running non-retro games such as PSVita, Wii and even Switch stuff. Then there's the fact lots of them are Android-based, and the obvious zoomer interest in smartphones is leading a growing number of publishers to bring non-retro games on mobile, which makes those "retro" handhelds more than capable of running modern games such as Fortnite, Genshin Impact, Call of Duty and so on.
So you can discuss what's basically top tier, ultra modern smartphone hardware as long as it has a bunch of physical buttons attached, and you're required to pretend they were only conceived to play games that are older than half the people on this website despite the increasingly noticeable retro-modern hybrid nature of such devices.

Honestly having strictly separated "modern" and "retro" boards was a dumb idea anyways for exactly this reason, because not only can no one even really agree what "retro" is (I've seen anons literally argue that age doesn't matter, and that Gamecube/PS2 will never count as retro even in 50 years), but because video games themselves don't really work in that matter.

So many aspects of gaming cross the arbitrary "consoles no later than 2001, games no later than 2007" barrier. Modern ports/re-releases of old games with significant changes, game series that span several years (I'm allowed to talk about Yakuza 1 and 2, but not 3 onwards) or were released on older and newer platforms at the same time (Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Blue and Red came out the exact same day, but only Red is /vr/ compliant). It also leads to scenarios where some of the allowed games are significantly older than not allowed games (God of War II (2007) is retro enough for /vr/ but New Super Mario Bros (2004) is not)

It would have made more sense to have one board for everything that's current-gen and another board for everything that's not instead of trying to just make up arbitrary lines for "so retro" oldfags

Yeah it really makes very little sense when you think about it.
I don't even consider PS2 as retro, how long until PS3 is considered retro as well? What about PS4? Consoles seem to have an increasingly longer lifespan, hell the PS3 lasted 11 years, PS4 is 10 years old and it's still being produced. Imagine considering "retro" a console that's just 1-2 generations behind.
Then again, the PS5 is barely 3 years old and it's already entering "the latter stage of its life cycle" according to Sony, so who knows.

To be fair, for a long time we did, and we didn't even question it. N64 games were considered retro in the Wii's lifetime, PS1 was considered retro in PS3's lifetime.

Honestly I think the main thing preventing people from accepting that Gamecube/PS2 is retro is the fact that it'd mean admitting that we're getting old and the games we loved in our youths are no longer mainstream, because if you can accept that 12 years is a long enough time for PS1 games to go retro, then you have to accept that 23 years is long enough for PS2 to go retro

I don't personally mind letterboxing that much or even "wasted space" as people call it, a screen at the right res would allow the handheld design a little more room to breathe not to worry, they'd still fuck up the other ergos.
TSP & RGB30 are serving well enough, a 6" 16:9 and a potential luxury 5" 1:1 device would be a very, very nice compromise for me not having 4-6" 4:3 screens.

I couldn't find any of these settings, but changing the core to mednafen seemingly made it all better. In the first test I got like 70 points instead of 40.

The only issue is that A is mapped to "turbo A" by default and X is regular A. Not the end of the world but I'd prefer it the other way around (or not having turbo buttons at all).

Is there any documentation on all this stuff? I couldn't find a way to enter any special menus with mednafen like with the retroarch cores. I guess the next step would be opening up each file in the ArkOS github hoping there would be comments somewhere about this stuff. I feel like I'm at a loss

Granted there's already people that consider 7th gen retro but like you said:

I think the moment I realised retro to some people means "the things I grew up with" was when I first started seeing the wave of FF XIII defence posts and appreciation from people that grew up with them. For context, if you were 8 years old when FFXIII launched you would now be 22 years of age.

It's the same concept of anaglyph 3D, where your eye/eyes are blocked from seeing certain colours. With a blue circuit board and transparent purple plastic, the blue circuit board cancels the "blue" in the transparent purple, making it appear far more red/pink than it's actually supposed to be.

It is not a dumb idea. In fact, you are here instead of on /v/. If that distiction was stupid, you wouldn't even be browsing this place. This is a slower board, it made sense having a specific board for threads that would sage in a matter of minutes on /v/. Of course retro is a problematic term because is no different than old, but specifically on this board it used to be equals to a concrete span of time, not just "old". If I want to discuss the medieval, talking about the bronze age won't satisfy me just because they are both old.

I hate that fucking comic. Making an equivalence between a medieval/early modern peasant and a person with an iPhone criticizing Apple in current times is absolutely idiotic. That peasant probably can't legally leave the village he was born in, which is owned by his landlord, which in turn means that he cannot choose who he works for without risking punishment, which was sometimes death. Of course, the enforcement of this varied wildly between countries and times and peasants often did move around even when legally forbidden from doing so. Still, a person owning an iPhone in current times has INFINITELY more freedom. They could just not buy an iPhone and not support the company whose actions they consider reprehensive. They could buy another phone instead. They don't have to leave any of the convenience of modern-day society to do so. If they only started disliking Apple AFTER they made the purchase, nothing stops them from selling that iPhone and buying something else. More used iPhones on the market means that fewer people will buy new ones and new ones have to compete with used ones more price-wise, so it also hurts Apple's interests. Apple devices keep their value on the used market pretty well, so that person probably wouldn't even lose much money in the process. They could probably buy a decent new phone for amount of money they get from selling their used iPhone.

Dunno, stuff like Retroid and Odin gets constantly cited and discussed here.
Even then, what's the correct place to talk about slightly better handhelds?

Consider how shit is going to change. We went from stuff that barely emulated PSP to devices that are running Switch games in the span of 3 years or something.
Either the market splits between strictly retro 40$ devices and 200+$ shit that plays everything up to 7th gen and above, or your average handheld is going to get more and more powerful no matter what, to the point they can't possibly considered retro- oriented anymore.

That depends. I guess there are two main kinds of traveling gaymers:
some people just want to play during flights/bus trips/train/boat whatever, then use their handheld at the hotel or whatever.
Other people want to bring that shit in their pockets and use it on the beach, during picnics and so on.

Two different sizes are required but it still can't be too big as space management is still essential during trips.

Technically the PS3 super slim, a battery backpack and a small 20" TV balanced on top in your left arm with a split controller on the back (toasty) for the dpad and the right hand free for face buttons is a handheld and plays retro games.

It's close. The AMOLED doesn't seem like it shows up in the pics very well. I think it's slightly better, definitely better in person, but not monumentally so. I think it does get brighter on max brightness. If you were modding an original I'd take the AMOLED kit every time though because it has touch screen controls, vs the weird touch points you get with certain screen kits. The FPGBC has some QoL improvements that help even the score though.

I'm very glad the purple handheld has an actual 3.0" screen and not just 2.4" or whatever, seems like a negligible difference but you really do notice it especially when playing in the dark. So far I've only played Dr. Mario and Adventure Island II on it but it rocks

I say pick up a RP4P and just sell it when the 5 comes out so you can cover most of the cost, that's what I did with my 2S (after testing the 4P for a bit to make sure it was a good replacement).

It's all about artistic intention, games of that era like Jet Set Radio, Yanya Caballista, Auto Modellista looked great.
They could still make it "dark" with better thought out lighting and texture work/better cel shading implementation.

Lg stylo 5 with Galileo G8 controller = perfection.
Used for PS1 up to PSP.

LGPremiere pro lte with two Gamesir X2 bluetooth controllers. Used for SNES and down.

The Galileo G8 is everything I wantedin a telescope controller and the X2 bluetooth has lasted me 2 years no with no wear and tear.

Playing Persona 1 psps lately; love the game but my one critique is that the fusion system doesn't reward you much. There's only a small handful of good fusions for the characters.

Started up GoldenSun for GBA recently. Can see why it was loved.

Most handhelds from wherever run android OS anyways so after debloat or root; it's essentially a handheld. Seperate older phones for gaming. (Recycling and repurposing tech is cool)

Most money I burned was on trial and error with conrollers.like 150$.

Good: anything by gamesir except for the X2 USB-C, that shit sucks.

Bad:
Backbone-/flimsy POS
Razer Kishi - they killed their updates and the controls just stopped working one day. Read online and found I wasn't the only one.

I'd recommend even a cheap bluetooth wraparound over something like the backbone.

I think someday I might buy a handheld; if I did it'd probably be the RP4 or one of them aluminum/metal shell anbernik products. Or maybe something small like a miyoo; but that urge has never overpowered me. My gaming handheld needs have been meet and I'm satisfied enough that I hardly post on here anymore.

I bought the kit two weeksish ago and assembled it earlier in the week. Got the v1.11 variant of the board. The worst part of assembling the kit is simply having to thread the screws on the shell itself because they don't come prethreaded. Honestly took me like 20 minutes of just screwing them in as hard as I could and then backing them out and the middle-right screw is acting up on me by being firm but not coming out now.
>I just don't know what the user experience is actually like when it comes to playing games on it.
When turning it on it functions exactly like any other legit GBC. With the newer firmwares they made their own OC boot logo so you need to get the modified one from
https://github.com/makhowastaken/GWGBC_FW/tree/main/HWv1_1
The volume slider is now this rocker thing you can push in to get to the OSD menu. It is much MUCH worse for turning sound down and you can't get it as low as the original GBC at all. It's always at like middle level on a real GBC even if you're one tick away from being mute.
If you play a GB or GBC game on the GBC core the graphics sometimes break. This is not handled automatically by the FPGBC yourself and you need to open up the OSD to tick "GBC fix" which fixes it. I think they said they're working to make this automatic.
The CPU speed is ever so slightly higher than a real GBC when you get it in the sweet spot which is like 3-4 ticks lower than max (It defaults to this on 1.08). I believe they're also working to fix this.
Real cartridges all seem to work based on the ones I own with no issues at all outside of the GBC fix thing.

Flashcarts are a mess in terms of compatibility.
Everdrives are officially supported now and work like they do on a real GBC. This should mean the clones on AliExpress (The Game Boy GB Pro+/Game Color ones) work as well.
EZ Flash JR requires the 1.5e patch (You need to Google it) and like 70% of games don't work. Some work by setting the CPU speed lower but crash when you put them back.

Ran out of room, but I should add I also have the speaker issue even at 1.08. Even if you have the thing at the lowest volume you will hear noise coming out of the speaker. Sometimes it stops, sometimes it doesn't. It's almost imperceivable unless the room is completely dead silent or you have the speakers up to your ears and I've never heard it at all when other noise is happening in any way.

I also don't know if it's the buttons I got or I'm remembering my years of growing up with the GBC wrong, but diagonals, especially down-right and up-right seem to get noticed way more than down-left and up-left. Left is properly rigid while right is ever so slightly dipped. Maybe the silicone contacts aren't on as great?

how taxing are crt filters on devices like rg35xxh? shittier ones like zfast? i cannot play with a little bit of crt action.

No.
Speaker has a plug
Battery has a plug
Screen adheres to the shell then plugs in
Board and shell screws together

The only thing you should know is that it doesn't have IR function. It looks like there's spots on the board where you could solder IR LEDs but the spot isn't populated.

Also this anon listed a bunch of caveats that are true.
I use an official Everdrive on mine.
Only difference is I don't seem to have the speaker issue post firmware update so it sounds like YMMV

I will note support was pretty good and it sounded like if they couldn't get it fixed they'd replace the board.

Even despite this I still think it's worth the price if you're looking for such a thing.
