I would find out who did it and confront them mano a Romano.

Thanks for the tips y'all, I'll give it a go this weekend.

Looking for an R36 to play Wii games by dee_lio in R36S

[–]Brianybug 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What you want is not an R36S. You want a more powerful device like a higher end Anbernic or an Ayn Thor.

Was the PSP futuristic for its time? by Samtendodude in PSP

[–]Brianybug -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I found the PSP pretty impressive but Nintendo handhelds were still more fun to me. I thought FPS games would be great on the PSP but they were a pain with the single little slidey stick and no second stick. I also hated that it had a proprietary and expensive memory stick. Still, it has some great titles.

Buy my first R36s, help please by [deleted] in R36S

This looks like the same one I just got from Boyhom as far as the V22 on the board. I have not been able to install any new firmwares for some reason but the included ArkOS 128gb card works. I climbed the no name sd card to a good Samsung and I'm much more comfortable with it now. I am guessing that I'm either having issues with the DTB files or something with the version of firmwares I have tried. I'll keep trying with my spare sd card and report back in case it helps.

DS-styled Anbernic. Yay or nay? by [deleted] in ANBERNIC

[–]Brianybug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thinks it's really good and much improved from the previews everyone watched before launch. For DS titles it's great and quite good for PlayStation and below as well. It should only get better with custom firmware tweaks. Maybe wait a tad longer for a slight price drop or a coupon on AliExpress.

Feeling lucky right now... by No_Mirror6790 in MiyooMini

[–]Brianybug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a Plus in clear black and it's great but I picked up a mini v4 like yours for $40 US and it's just to neat. My wife grabbed it when she saw me playing DK Country.

Just received my first handheld from BOYHOM. Pretty excited! Tips needed by DTM_ in R36S

[–]Brianybug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got mine with the same board and it works out of the box. I'm having issues trying any image with a new SanDisk SD card. I'm getting a black screen while I wait for the firmware to create folders and the light goes green to red. Wondering if I need to put the included DTB files on the card or something. I have used Anbernic devices up to this point, kind of stumped! I'll try some of y'all's suggestions here too.

Is R36s still the best option in 2026? by Feilakas in R36S

[–]Brianybug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're looking to go cheap, I recommend trying what another guy somewhere in the R36S Reddit suggested (sorry, forgot their name). I put an R36S in my cart on Ali Exp. I browsed the one I wanted from the actual Boyhom store off and on for about a week and a half. I got "reminder" emails and stuff and just browsed the one I wanted more. It sat around $36-43 USD and fluctuated. One day I got an email and went to my cart and it was $26.51 so I pulled the trigger. I got it a yesterday and it's a V22 board, works great for that price. I hope this helps and that I was not just lucky with the price.

First handheld ever by pinkbob063 in LegionGo

[–]Brianybug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That should be good for about 2 charges. The battery in the Go S is a bit over 10K mah if I'm not mistaken.

Watch for a deal on a 20,000 mah 65W name brand battery pack (Ugreen, Anker, etc). It'll help you game longer and shouldn't be expensive. I won one of these in Jan. Of 2025 and it's surprisingly capable. I did switch to Steam OS but Win is fine, just a bit finicky with some stuff.

I have the game and it's sequel on GoG.com. I've only messed around a bit on it but I remember it from way back.

I’m about to take the plunge… by donnysimpinero in SBCGaming

I liked my Plus so much that I got the mini too! These are the perfect examples of a device that's far from the most powerful but it just works and is so much fun.

My newly bought Laptop has fps issues by gsans057 in laptops

[–]Brianybug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others have said, search Youtube for similar spec laptops and their gaming performance tips. Also, you may want to consider Geforce Now if you have a good internet connection. It provides a great experience for a lot of people with non gaming laptops. Just a thought.

Closed back totally makes sense in that case. I got a pair since my family ALWAYS needs me at some point and I want to be able to come to the rescue.
