I would generally recommend installing Onion OS on a new micro SD card like a Sandisk. Keep the stock os card as a backup. It seems like Colecovision/Intellivision may take a few steps to get working because I have seen Reddit posts and KZread videos about an updated fix to get it working. Just check some online forums and some videos about it so you know what to expect

if I have a Steam Deck is this worth getting over the RG35XX or at all? And if yes, where from? Are they pocketable?

@batpixel

9 ай бұрын

I think you’d prefer the Miyoo Mini Plus because it’s a little smaller and more pocketable. Not as comfortable as a cell phone in your pocket, but the RG35XX will be a bigger feel in comparison. They are both very very similar, so you will get a good handheld either way. The Miyoo Mini Plus has a smaller version called a Miyoo Mini, although I think it doesn’t perform as well as the Plus, but it’s a lot smaller if you’d like something that’s very comfortable in your pocket. There are good comparison videos of all of these handhelds out there too. And like you said, the Steam Deck can handle any 32 & 64 bit systems like N64/PS1/Dreamcast etc. better and it has joysticks. Try finding it on AliExpress or I have an Amazon link in the description. AliExpress will probably be a little cheaper

For sure. I hope the standards stay high in 2024!

In terms of aesthetic and feel, this is generally still considered to be the best of its kind. And the newer versions of this also come with a CPU that's clocked at 1600 MHz instead of 1200 MHz (which is what my unit runs at). I think some other competitors of this may offer analog sticks, some more performance or both. Ultimately it all comes down on preference. For me this is perfect until a compact handheld comes out that does a great job emulating PS2 and Gamecube (which current compact handhelds like this do fall short off... they can run a lot of their games, but a lot of their libraries still give trouble, so until then I'll just settle for something that can run anything up till about PS1 level well).

@batpixel

Yeah very good points. That’s how I feel about their level of performance now as well. I run the newer consoles on the ROG Ally with Bluetooth controllers or handheld mode. I’m hoping they maintain the high quality of this one if they release a flip version
