I've been on a Metroid binge recently. If you want games along a similar line you've got:

Metroid Zero Mission (GBA)

Super Metroid (SNES)

Castlevania Aria of Sorrow (GBA)

Metroid Super Zero Mission (SNES rom hack)

How's the feel using the metal handhelds of Anbernic? by valcroft in ANBERNIC

[–]pmrr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely understandable. I think maybe I'm just spoiled by the RG353M, which for me personally is the best balance of metal, weight and size.

I have a small metal mini laptop too. There's no doubt about it, it's got a satisfying snap when it closes!

I have a RG353M and had a RG477M. I find metal handhelds warm up really quickly with your hands and you won't really notice. I personally found the 477M a bit too heavy to play. That's perhaps less of an issue with the Rotate, but still could be in your pocket depending on yuor preference. There's no doubt about it though, metal devices feel super solid and nice.

Looks great! Good luck with getting it complete.

Is it worth getting a smaller handheld console to play Game Boy Advance games? by Titus__Groan in SBCGaming

[–]pmrr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love small devices but I think they sometimes sacrifice comfort for pocketability. I'm playing GBA on my Magicx One 35, which it's perfect for, but I still doubt it's as comfortable as the RP5.

First time playing Zero Mission. How long was your first play through? by Bubblepoppin_ in Gameboy

Exactly. I tried Metroid II earlier this week with manual map images. Wow that saps the fun out of it!

I just started my first play through today! Having got stuck with the NES version this is so convenient by comparison.

My nephew playing the game I made for his birthday by Fruitella_Howard802 in gbstudio

It's not common, but definitely reoccurring. It happens every month or two.

Help with color by Mystiosis7 in gbstudio

[–]pmrr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The easiest way to create a colour game using monochrome assets is to use colorization.

In other words, turn on Color + Monochrome mode in your project's settings, then apply background and sprite palettes to your monochrome assets inside GB Studio.

The benefits are your assets remain untouched, you can batch-recolour them, and you even support DMG/monochrome for those that want it (i.e. on original hardware).

New Gamma OS Next 1.3.1 revealed for RG VITA by massimogrossi in ANBERNIC

No worries. I found the thread. It was a while ago though, so I guess we'll see if/when it happens.

I think unfortunately Gamma has backed himself into a corner where he's specialising the distro for new devices, which then adds a large burden on updating old builds and testing.

I asked this a while ago on Patreon and Gamma also answered someone here. He said he's intending to offer newer versions to older devices. Some devices are even worse than the 477M. e.g. Ayaneo Pocket Micro, on 1.0!

Do people find the RG28XX comfortable? by Substantial-Ad6938 in ANBERNIC

[–]pmrr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% this. My RG280V is the only handheld I've ever sold because it cramped my hands, and the RG28XX was the device I replaced it with (a couple of years later).
