So far, um... I'm playing a 90's fantasy anime and it's wholesome as shit.

One of the better JRPGs ever done.

Follow up Lunar 1+2 with Suikoden 1+2, then Golden Sun 1+2.

(Optional) Phantasy Star 1-4.

After that, you really don't need to play any other JRPG.

Lunar is up there with FF 4 and 6 and Chrono. Likely best 4 retro rpgs that exist.

And Earthbound.

@GhiLA Possibly death when playing while driving.

I can't answer your question, but I have the RG35XX H arriving in a week, and you may have just inspired the first game to play when I get it. 😊

I actually owned Lunar 1 and 2 back in the day but never got around to playing them.

I like Lunar 1 but I never got into Lunar 2.

I lost my Miyoo Mini in Greece and want to buy another.

It's noticeably better than the 35XXsp I got to replace it.

How so? Most of what I've read has drawn the opposite conclusion🤷‍♂️

[–] Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 1 points 15 minutes ago

The buttons on the Miyoo are much better. There are videos on disassembling the SP and putting tape over the buttons to try and fix them.

GarlicOS is much better on the Miyoo compared to SP stock or Muos. It's a super quick save/power off/boot/restore so when you hit power you are back in your game but because it's a real power off instead of sleep, you always have power. (Which is why I stopped using my Restroid.)

The SP can do save/restore but it's slower. The power button is particularly weird. You press power, wait two seconds, light comes on, then it boots.

The only thing the SP has going for it is the form factor.

According to the device reviews, lots of potential problems.

I have seen nothing but people raving about the Miyoo Mini +. Its cheap enough that if you happen to get a dud its no huge loss.

[–] moonburster@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I got it 4 times and all were of good quality on release

[–] minnix@lemux.minnix.dev 5 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Miyoo Mini +

My mistake, I thought it was this one

[–] SilentStorms@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

That one isn’t bad either, but that price is way too high. A lot of the problems people have with these consoles is using the cheapo SD card that comes with it.

I have the Anbernic RG35XX and so far it has been an amazing device which I never regretted buying. You can get it for around €50 from Ali. The one linked seems to be a knock-off because I don't see any Anbernic branding.

[–] GhiLA@sh.itjust.works 12 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 44 minutes ago)

It was $40 secondhand and has a DSlite battery inside it.

I call it my Shitboy. It's the device I take to work because I don't care about it that much, but he's a dependable little guy.

and MM+ is generally a great device. My battery just died... everything else works.

The Miyoo Mini Plus? It plays great and I haven't had a single issue
