How the heck do people play on such tiny screens? (self.sbcgaming)

I’ve got a Powkiddy X55 and I’m really enjoying it, but for some games I find even its 5.5” screen to be fairly small for the task, particularly when looking at games from the 32-bit era and up.

How on earth are people actually managing to play these games on 3.5” and 2.8” displays? I feel like it would be really cramped for screen real estate or you’d basically be holding the device in front of your nose just to play it.

I’ve got an RG35XX and I don’t think I hold it any closer to my eyeballs than I do my mobile phone.
