I finally joined the retro gaming handheld club!

I have an Anbernic RG556. Does pretty good with PS2 (not perfect, but good enough for funk with most games ive tried), and does fantastic with the older gens of pretty much everything. Ive done some Steam Link stuff, but I dont love it and it can be finnicky with that – but it’s pretty cool to be able to play Borderlands 4 on a device i got for less than $200.

My advice to anybody on the fence is buy the best one you can afford even if you dont think you’ll want to play games that need those specs.

I need to look into it more, but if a Steam Deck can emulate, i might be looking at getting one of those someday and retiring my Anbernic.

Rg556 10/10 for value 7/10 for performance 3/10 for steam linking

Steam does emulation quite well, but new ones aren’t sold anymore, and x86 handheld prices are going through the roof. A popular ones just rose it’s price by almost 50% and is $2000 now.
