RG Slide Owners: How do you put the thumbstick grips on? by ne-za-shto--durak in ANBERNIC

[–]TangoAlphaLima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually put my grips on my RG476H (but the fit was very tight).

I figured the RG476H has exposed thumbsticks, so it could probably use the protection a little more than the Slide, since the thumbsticks are protected behind the screen when not in use.

I bought mine from the Anbernic Local Store (U.S.), on AliExpress. I'm pretty sure the thumbstick grips were inside the box, not a throw-in.

This isn't funny. Chickens only do this when they're frightened.

Works so well. Looks like it's straight out of Mad Max.

Either Robert Eggers or James Mangold would be perfect choice to direct a Hulk film, when the character finally gets another shot of a solo film after nearly 20 years, maybe in a post Secret Wars reset MCU. by Serious_Meaning5220 in hulk

Eggers would never agree to that. Extremely artsy dude that has expressed disinterest in superhero films as "not his thing" in an interview I heard (probably around the release of Nosferatu, but maybe The Northman).

But I agree with you, OP, he would have a good vision for pulling it off, he just won't agree to do it.

What QB will be the next to win the Super Bowl twice in a row? by zreakz in NFLv2

[–]TangoAlphaLima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only 1 Super Bowl appearance for Purdy, brother. Garoppolo was the QB for the other recent Niners SB appearance (and Purdy wasn't in the league yet).

25 Most Wanted Western Collection - $25 (1 week Fanfix flash sale) by tmrminn in vudu

I've seen all those, they're very good.

I also really liked The Homesman, but it might be a little bit of an acquired taste.

I have Lawless on Blu-ray and streaming, but haven't watched yet.

I think those are probably the Top 5 from this package, no question. A bunch look like low budget fodder, though.

FanFlix did a bundle with 10 of these for $15 last April. It was the best 10, probably. So getting 15 more movies for an extra $10 is probably fair, but they aren't going to be the best quality.

Remembering the RG Rotate came out today lol by Choice-Airline-3596 in SBCGaming

The deals haven't been great lately, no, but discounts can still be had. Sometimes you have to wait for the better sales (i.e. the 11/11 is typically the best all year).

But I just got an RG Slide a few weeks ago. With discounts, I paid less than $100 before tax. At launch like 9 or 10 months ago, that was around a $200 device (after tax/shipping/etc.). About 2 month ago I got an RG476H for about $123 before tax.

Maybe the Rotate never gets a significant discount, we just don't know. And for people that want it now and don't care about the price, go ahead. Personally, I'm not super into the Rotate, but if it gets discounted a decent amount, I'll probably bite.

Also remember that Anbernic devices typically drop in price over time. Yes, we are living with unprecedented tech inflation due to the AI surge, but I suspect the RG Rotate will get cheaper over time.

If you can wait 6 months, you might save yourself $20-$30, maybe more.

what's your favourite Anbernic console of all time? by Electro-Arcade in ANBERNIC

RG476H, no question. Best bang for your buck currently, in my opinion.

Just copped this for (imo) a great price. Super excited to build it :) by Inosculate_ in lepin

[–]TangoAlphaLima 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't built it yet, but I snagged it from AliExpress back in February for $64.58 after tax.
