So she sends me this clip for something called Retro Snap, I do a little reading up on it and discover that it’s overpriced, cheap hardware, made by a “business” that ghosts you when you need support, takes down negative reviews and even tries to bribe mods to take down critical posts. For starters. So fuck them.

Looking for alternatives, I learn about Anbernic, and as I’m reading up on them I very quickly feel overwhelmed by the huge variety of consoles on the market and vague info on what games you’ll get or how to get the ones you might want (yes I understand why but still).

So you, smart people, can you help a brother out?

    Techdweeb recently recommended the G350 as an all round good starter handheld. He tests a lot of handhelds so I’m inclined to believe him.

    In the end it depends on what you want. What’s your budget? What kind of performance do you want? Does it have to be pocketable?

    Depending on your answer to these questions a controller for your smartphone or a full blown Steam Deck might be what’s best suited for you.

      I know it’s like his bit, but I cannot stand the voice he uses in his videos. Maybe it is his real voice, idk. If it is, I feel for him.
