Does anyone here do their gaming on an SBC or hardware emulation machine? I’m considering trying to start an instance for these machines and am curious if there’s much desire

I’m really into these machines, particularly Anbernic and Retroid. I’m already in the linked group and on the Retro Handhelds Discord. Hoping to see content here!

I have an OrangePi Zero 2 setup as a console under my TV. The zero 3 just came out and it $15. Does all 16 bit consoles, can run Linux or android (android works better for emulator)

Anyways I’ll join if you make a !SBCgaming or something like that.

So there’s this one which isn’t super active but I’ve been trying to drop shit in it every now and then

I have to admit every time I see one I really get the urge to buy one. But personally I prefer buying older systems and putting emulators on them. The PSP is a classic for instance.

There's also one on this instance https://lemmy.world/c/sbcgaming

Maybe you were searching for the whole term? Maybe search was local vs all? Who knows community searches can be wonky.
