Have you ever held a switch? Its long, flat and the controllers suck. Awful dpad and bad sticks.

Its almost comical, for a small stick the 3ds stick is better than any joycon stick.

And also, internal storage being only 32 GB, and cart games being downloaded in full to the system.

The switch is a mess. At least the games emulate well.

That’s not even going into the online ransom shit.

And the dock sucks too. Would it have killed Nintendo to add like 2 more USB ports and an Ethernet port.

And not related but powera can eat shit

    • Hell yes!! I would love that. I’m definitely looking for something lofi - like even playing SNES games would probably be overkill. Bonus points if it can play contemporary retro games, like for PICO-8

      • OK, so yih looking for something that can do SNES well, that would be low power, unless you wanna have newer systems,

        So I need answers for these 4 questions

        What shape you want?

        What budget?

        How much power do you want!

        What os do you want?

        For SNES the cheaper end will work

          1. Smaller the better, not wide like a Switch or Stream Deck.

          2. Under 200 CAD, but flexible for the right device

          3. Limited 3D but no more. Like FX chip level

          4. Linux? Hopefully I understood the question

          Thanks for taking this time!

          • OK, I have some ideas.

            For all of SNES and some other stuff as a bonus the ambernic rg35xxh seems like it’d be a good fit. Tho it is horizontal. About 80-90 USD I think

            The rg35xx is similar but vertical with no sticks

            For something that’s like 40 USD ish there’s the powkiddy v90.

            Tho for 200 cad that’s like mid range tier. But most powerful ones are landscape.

            A good yt channel is retro game corps.

            My personal machine is the retroid pocket 4 pro. An android handheld that is very powerful, can emulate up to some switch
