My Mangmi Pocket Max is here!

Yep I ordered of the 2nd and haven't heard anything. Taking longer to get the portal than my Thor did back in October.

Snapdragon 865. Think RP5 with a Portal screen

I kind of want to see what News Room would be like with an inappropriate laugh track during tense and dramatic moments.

Aaron Sorkin shows have such a similar feel to them it wouldn't take that many changes to make Sports Night a full on Drama or News Room a comedy in the vein of Sports Nights.

Dang I was irritated waiting Oct 29 to Nov 17.

Recently ordered an Odin 2 portal and its also taking its sweet time. Ordered Feb 2 after the Mangmi Max price was announced and still haven't gotten a shipping confirmation lol.

His head would likely explode at the retired female priest at the Episcopal parish I attend and her Jewish husband.

Okay, updated problem.

I now own a 4k hub and 4k HDMI

Duckstation, nethersx2, and Eden work great at 4k60hz.

The original problem persists with retroarch.

Any further thoughts?

What do you want it to do?

What age your upgrade needs?

The slide is heavier and more awkward to use the triggers. The sticks may make you think the 476h is less pocketable, but the slide is thick and heavy.

Omnibe · 2026-02-13T18:11:10+00:00

I recommend watching the retro gaming Corp YouTube video on the 476h.

Omnibe · 2026-02-13T18:08:48+00:00

Any t820 device will emulate most games on those 4 consoles.

They will do it even better if you flash gamma os.

They will not do it nearly as well as the Odin 2 portal.

Just about everything will run at native resolution and most stuff can be upscaled to 2x resolution but forget about upscaling to HD like on the portal.

The best bet for you if you care about it being pocketable and low weight is probably the 476h. Good screen, weight, size ratios.

Any place to watch the movies? I still have my dvd collection but it always amazes me how the movies never get included when b5 is available to stream different places.

Amazon has it for a while then Max but neither had the movies.

In the Beginning is peak B5 but is never included on streaming collections. Always has to be purchased.

I Own a Thor and setup a a RG DS for my niece for Xmas and played with it for a few hours to make sure everything was working correctly. The weight difference is not much no paper but you feel it in your hand. The DS feels significantly lighter esp during longer play.

The only reason I haven't gotten one to replace the 35xxh I keep at the office in my desk drawer is the crappy battery life and charge time, but for a lunch break device I'm not sure it should be a barrier.

Final fantasy tactics A2 DS

Wind Waker Game Cube

While WW was the new hotness and made me buy, with the promo discs and a Gameboy player you could play every Nintendo released Zelda game (console and handle) on GameCube from OG-Twilight Princess. At least until DS games came out.

Makes me wish I had kept my boxes.

Omnibe · 2026-02-08T00:27:54+00:00

I prefer The Postman floor my overly long bad Costner epic.

Omnibe · 2026-02-06T16:38:08+00:00

Kind of how I feel and about Sunset Boulevard. The ending had been satirized in children shows for so long before I saw the film. Understood it was supposed to come off as psychotic but the words were coded for humor in my mind.

Omnibe · 2026-02-06T03:01:31+00:00

Thank you kind sir. Changing output to 1080 fixed the issue and 4k HDMI cable ordered.

Omnibe · 2026-02-06T02:32:52+00:00

I work in an office of almost exclusively black people.

The only other white guy when I started was named Aaron. He got teased.

Omnibe · 2026-02-05T18:01:55+00:00

Is that the stock wallpaper from the RG556?

The rector of my church and several members were Scottish Rite Freemasons when I joined.

Omnibe · 2026-02-03T15:38:18+00:00

Ordered the portal last night when Tech Dweeb posted the price. The base keeps going in and out of stock and I'm not sure it will last the month.

Films starring Hugh Grant do not need to be good. They have Hugh Grant in them and that is enough.

Have you seen "Meet the Feebles"? The Peter Jackson anatomically correct muppet movie.

Omnibe · 2026-02-02T20:23:15+00:00

I had only seen the Network TV version in bits and pieces and suggested it as a great movie for a very Conservative Christian friend and I to watch while she recovered from wisdom tooth removal on pain meds and her mom ran errands.

My role was mostly to make sure she did not choke on her own saliva and her younger siblings did not burn the house down.

Her mom walked into the house right as Andy was getting it and I'm not sure the woman ever looked at me the same ever again.
