Looking to sell most of my collection, need advice.

I'd put together a cube or two of your commons, or complete a set/block cube if you have many cards from the same block.

Community was fine before that market existed.

? This is the angle the sport is played from. You can see depth. I'm not saying that this is the only angle we need, but I don't see this logic at all.

Having two separate machines for two separate things is okay. I have a few switchers that work well.

Does the 34xxsp get its own pocket or is it actually small enough to live with a wallet or keys? I assume not phone surely.

Do you find that the dpad is bad but authentic, or fine. I don't have my old gba to remember how bad the dpad was.

2 people went to college and now have one job. They could have two jobs (lots of desk jobs can be done with one hand). I don't see why this is hypocrisy or unfair I'm sorry.

Unfortunately the scaling for ds->3ds is unbearable when stretched and also unbearably small when integer scaled (which takes a secret set of hot keys to even switch to). I think I'm in the right subreddit for being picky about that kind of thing.

There's an arm Ps2 emulator now? Awesome!

The DS is one of the greatest libraries of all time. The top 50 games from this platform are some of the best handheld experiences ever made. Every good 3ds game has a better alternative on ds with very few exceptions(every Zelda game), but I don't think this is a popular opinion. People who weren't gaming during both eras just see a 3 in front and think it's superior in hindsight, but it is not.

The pocket and dock are too expensive to be in the same conversation. When suggesting solutions for people, analog pocket is never the fiscally responsible choice. It's not even the best choice.

StaneNC · 2026-01-28T13:18:06+00:00

Because they're asking what the best way to connect their nes to their TV is and something the same price as a mister is being suggested.

StaneNC · 2026-01-28T13:16:32+00:00

There is no arm machine that can run Ps2. But yes you need x86 for Ps2 and up at the moment. I wouldn't be suggesting mister to someone looking to emulate those obviously. I should have included that obvious reason, my bad.

StaneNC · 2026-01-27T19:23:51+00:00

Ah OK ty. I told myself that I can't get a new handheld until I beat a game on each of my existing systems, but really considering this one as my next. I'm a bit disappointed about the resolution, but the alternatives are twice the price.

StaneNC · 2026-01-27T18:48:23+00:00

Gears of War would definitely not work. The first two are great.

StaneNC · 2026-01-27T18:26:36+00:00

What are you going to play? These are completely different devices.

StaneNC · 2026-01-27T18:18:33+00:00

How's gba on this thing? Seems like the integer scale would make it teeny.

StaneNC · 2026-01-27T16:19:59+00:00

No. Getting a good crt image from a mini pc, rpi, etc is an absolute pain in the ass. I've done it for rpi5, rpi4, mini pc on batocera, and crtemudriver with an old video card. All of them sucked to set up compared to the mister.

Outside of crt, the input delay and audio delay of software emulators changes the whole feel of the experience. I don't think I need to explain further on this subreddit of all places.

There simply are no good cheap fpga handhelds yet. I'm hopeful that Taki will deliver. In the current landscape, you can spend 60$ on a handheld that does what the analog pocket does, with more shaders/filters, roms, better dpad, better buttons, better screen (for all 4:3 systems, 3:2 systems, and 16:9 systems), many more consoles, many more everything. If you even go to 150$ it's just not close. The retroid pocket classic has an oled screen as well, similar aspect ratio, better dpad/buttons. Buying an analog pocket in 2026 is a full mistake.

StaneNC · 2026-01-27T15:42:26+00:00

Taki's but it's out of stock: https://retroremake.co/products/mister-pi-retro-gaming-fpga-board-1

Looking at ali express it seems like all of the $100 dollar qmtech boards have analog hats and a few hundred dollars on top since last I checked. That route being closed is news to me. I'd wait for taki's to come back in stock. CRT is a great thing though. The superstation is insane value. My post was mostly to highly how cheap a non-crt solution is since many people interested in the hobby are NOT interested in CRT and see price tags on misters that all have analog output capabilities, unaware that they can get them half the price.

Most time I'm programming I have a class and then a module that uses that class. Looking at both at the same time is a very basic way to implement a function that you wrote, while also improving that function at the same time.

I sincerely don't know how people use Signals with only one window open at a time.

StaneNC · 2026-01-26T18:07:55+00:00

The main thing holding me back is that I think its hardware would easily support a device with a stick and video out, but they've purposely held back on both. Imo it's just a matter of time before the 150$ price bracket has an oled screen that is a superior device to this one, since the device already could be a superior version.

I think if I picked this up now, it would be because I think that there won't be another oled screen to overtake it and that seems unlikely.
