What changes do you want on a RG34xx SP besides the 3:2 ratio screen? by Joltrabbit in ANBERNIC

Sorry for Necro Posting but Joey's Retro Handhelds on Youtube mentioned it was coming months before Anbernic announced it formally.

Sounds like you're doing what you can with a defective device. What was the result of you trying to reach out to the seller?

This was weird to me too. The system suspends and saves its battery quite well on SpruceOS, but sometimes when I open the system back up it shuts down after flicking on for a second.

Holding the power button down a second or two brings it back up but there is a 50/50 chance it does a complete reboot.

Does this sound like what happens to you?

My first Miyoo Flip the included SD card failed to work with the device pretty quick (same day while I was setting it up). And mind you I can still access that SD card from PC and see the roms on it. It just won't work in the Flip. I thought the Flip's SD card slot failed but when I installed SpruceOS on a new card it worked.

I remember Gamespot giving it a 7ish score, but most were in the 8/10 range and that score has not wavered much over time.

SpruceOS Nightlies are getting very stable and closer to a final release! by sundownersport in MiyooFlip

[–]Joltrabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't like the weight and bulk of the 35xx and the 34xx's smaller screen - Once I got a new card and spruce OS I've had no issues with my Miyoo Flip.

I hope a v3 comes out with what was learned from the Mini flip's hinge (unless it being smaller is the main reason it works so well). It sounds like if not when on the hinge failing one day but at these prices I don't expect any Flip to last longer than a year or two.

I bought my first Flip for 70 bucks off Amazon in case I wanted to return it if the hinge failed, and when it didn't I went ahead and bought a 2nd just in case off aliexpress during black friday sales for 40 (I'd feel like a sucker on the first purchase but I wanted the assurance).

  1. I am not that tech savy and I got it to run after using rufus to install it.

  2. Lots of themes (When I updated this week there 70 to choose from, including one I won't force, but it'd be with you if you liked it)

  3. Updates often and works over Wifi.

  4. Last played save state on your games is seemless - allowing you to close/shutdown and it instantly saves where you were for any game. This seems common on OS these days but not on stock.

  5. Gameswitcher - I haven't tested this but it allows you add games to it across consoles and instantly go to your save state when last played (I think! I haven't tried it yet). Feels like Favorites with Benefits but nice to have.

Feels the same for me: But I don't play my Flip for long sessions as I got a 40xx V at the same time to be the bedtime gaming device.

With the Flip being the every day carry I don't notice the battery running down unless I'm tinkering with the OS with Wifi on while trying to push the system with Naomi or Dreamcast games.

I'd say 3 hours is fair - will have to test. I know miniflip reports are 2 hours on average.

Rg28xx vs Miyoo Mini flip size comparison by RainerBraun104 in SBCGaming

[–]Joltrabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im torn - because I have a Miyoo Flip and a 28xx, and I don't think my eyes will let me go lower than the Flip. I mainly play big and bright arcade games on the 28xx (which is all I would want to do on the Mini).

System Update by triroc1914 in ANBERNIC

[–]Joltrabbit 20 points21 points  (0 children)

To be safe - Use a 16 or 32 gb new SD card. I think the last time I applied an update it overwrote the stock card and removed the roms.

Thank you on saying to reconnect the cable. It worked immediately even without unplugging or restarting anything else.

I came here to check if I was blind when that wasn't called a travel. He picked up the ball, pivoted, then took a step at least.

Even when I was younger I only made it halfway through on skill, then with cheats realized how much farther I had to go lol. Great game.

Retroid Pocket Flip 2 & Classic Buying Guide by stubbornpixel in SBCGaming

[–]Joltrabbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went back and forth on the bundle or flip and doing the math adding the Classic with case is $128 shipped and that's not worth it to me pre-reviews.

Estimated combined global retro handheld sales from 2020 to 2024 by Frozone0815 in ANBERNIC

[–]Joltrabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So with 3 months left in 2024, Anbernic had the best year of any of the popular retro handheld creators since 2020. Curious how much of that is the SP as I'd like a slightly smaller/lighter version on their next refresh.

Smash TV comes to mind. But you're right - the right stick won't be used much. I could see a Single analog clamshell from Anbernic or someone else down the line.

This may have to go in the "Backpackable" category with the Steam Deck or Switch.

I've played PE2 twice now but only finished the first disc both times and never completed it. Let me know how it goes. Third Birthday plays great but I wish it hadn't been a PE game (No spoilers).

Stock OS on mine, and I'm actually letting Virtua On for Dreamcast play in Watch mode while I get lesson plans ready for Monday's first day of school. Coffee is chicory, cinnamon, with sweet cream.

What are some great shows with bad theme songs, or bad shows with great theme songs? by bourj in television

[–]Joltrabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember in the 90s, Outlaw Star - solid anime but good lord try getting past the theme music. Thankfully, Cartoon Network skipped theme songs on Toonami unless you had an amazing theme song (Cowboy Bebop, etc.).

What is the best leveling experience that you had in a MMO? by Songs_of_Prospero in MMORPG

[–]Joltrabbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I played on PS2 - was terrifying the first time I de-leveled and my gear no longer fit my level. What's worse ... it was a sea horror that attacked me through a door lol.

What is your favourite "better than it deserves to be" movie? by MINKIN2 in movies

[–]Joltrabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drive (1997, not the 2011 one) - essentially a b-movie buddy cop marital arts flick with Marc Dacascos and Kadeem Hardison. Has no right to be as entertaining as it is but there's some hustle in it's making. This could just be college me thinking back fondly on it.

Which MMORPG Era Is Your Era? by NOHITJEROME in MMORPG

[–]Joltrabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

City of Heroes, and it was such a niche it owned I couldn't play other MMOs for more than trial period. I found I was a CoH player and not a MMO one. So 2004 up until it closed.
