Just got this bad boy yesterday and I'm like a kid at Christmas! πŸ˜„ The delight I felt firing up my old love, Desert Strike... Goosebumps! Seriously impressed with this bit of kit, and I'm enjoying exploring the options as much as the many many games! The effort put in by the community with GarlicOS and the ROM packs is simply magnificent.

Congrats! What’s the name of the hardware?

Pretty sure it’s the RG35XX? Right?

Seems pretty cheap, and the top seller I see in Google is temu which just gives me sus vibes

It’s a well-known device/brand in the retro gaming community. You can also buy it direct from anbernic

That's great to hear, it looks really nice, so I was expecting Β£200 not Β£50!

Get it from Amazon if you are going to buy one. Anbernic is in China so their customer support on a $70-80 device is barebones to non existent.
