Retro Handhelds Community

Discord is the beating heart of Retro Handhelds. It’s a central meeting place where enthusiasts can relax, trade tips, discuss their latest gaming passion, and get help with their newest device. Our server is designed to be a welcoming and inviting place, with staff of friendly moderators from around the world helping to keep things running smoothly.

RH Game of the Month

Join Retro Handhelds every month as we tackle a suite of retro games. This book club-style event highlights titles from Pre-’96, ‘96-’00, and the post-2000 modern era. Join our Discord to participate with others and earn points towards RH merch!

RH discord and around the web

In addition to the general community hub channels, the RH Discord also offers several device-specific categories. Have you taken a hard pass on the Retroid Pocket 5, but want to know everything there is about Anbernic’s RG Cube? No problem! Just subscribe to the channels that interest you. Or if you’re the daring type, go ahead and enable every category! Enjoy the firehose of portable gaming goodness.

Are you working on a custom firmware for a retro handheld? Our developer channels can help give your team a central place to discuss new ideas and features. When you’re ready to launch, our user-base is always full of eager testers to help kick the tires on your latest beta code. Along with our discord link, you can also find our youtube, facebook group, x account, and instagram below!

Retro Handhelds on Reddit

In addition to running a centralized Discord server, Retro Handhelds also manages several handheld related subreddits. These communities offer a slower and more asynchronous place to chat, and are limited to the devices you care about the most.
