Of course, we love our retro handhelds around here, but usually that means hopping to a different device if you want to play something a bit more strenuous. Or, you could grab yourself a nifty x86 handheld and play practically all of your favorite retro games, and a lot of the newer stuff too.

Playing your favorite games on retro handhelds can only go so far, and there are times when you’d rather enjoy games on a bigger screen.

        Any idea how to buy multiple at those prices on AliExpress? The price changes once you add multiple items to the cart.
        I wanted to get gifts for the family.

    I managed to find a coupon code for 15% off the gamesir g8+ bringing it to 68 from the manufacturer. I’ll see if I can find it again.

      RG35XX SP is my favorite clamshell this year so far! Depends on what kind of performance you’re wanting though. You could go as big as the AYANEO DS, but you’re talking nearly $1k.

    Gogamegeek “mystery box” deal was on here in November… the real mystery is if they will actually ever send anything or respond to emails!
    Totally understand RH does not have anything to do with GGG, but maybe they will pay attention if the community hears about it.
    Thank you for all you do RH rules!!

      The X-mas mystery box for x-mas holidays was great, I got my device within 2 weeks, I also reached out to them and they replied within 1 day.

      I got the device I wished for (rg35xxsp) in the color I hoped for and paid €45.
      Lucky and happy
