3DS is retro now. I am finally a boomer.

[–] rezz@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It’s in quotes in the title. And the second is a hardware emulator. They’re all for emulation.

[–] Scrof@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

Retro as in retro gaming I assume. It's good for emulation and you can comfortably play DS games on it too.

[–] dojan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I think it’s more that it’s an excellent emulation device.

[–] Zeus@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

put it this way, it's the new nintendo 3ds. it can't ever be retro; it's the new version

[–] idusces@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I have a lot of questions.

Number one, how dare you?

[–] idusces@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Number two, what is that gameboy build? Looks slick as hell.

[–] runningman@lemmy.one 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

I'm pretty sure it's an Anbernic RG35XX

[–] TheTeaMonster@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yup, it's the RG35XX.

[–] idusces@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

$55? Pretty acceptable to me. I'm in love with that bezeless screen

[–] resketreke@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

That's either a Miyoo Mini Plus or an Anbernic RG5XX. And if I'm not mistaken, it's the latter.

[–] _I_@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Sure, retro - if you're 12 😃

In terms of their aesthetic, at least. Nuphy Air60 and the retro version of the Xtrfy M8 Wireless.

[–] CaptainAlchemy@lemmy.one 2 points 2 years ago

Slick AF, I love it!

[–] Vub@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

The 3DS was a beauty. Also the thumb stick had the best feel to it.

[–] Noodlez@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

The 3DS is such an amazing emulation device. I love it.

[–] NocturnalNebula@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What are the two on the left?

[–] TheTeaMonster@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The two gaming systems? They're a "New" 3DS and an Anbernic RG35XX.

[–] Beardliest@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How do you like the Anbernic? What made you choose that over the Miyoo Mini Plus? if you don’t mind me asking.

[–] TheTeaMonster@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I really enjoy it. I chose it over the Miyoo Mini Plus because, from my research, it has a better-quality display. The extra chin under the face buttons also adds to the comfort in hand over time, and I can confirm that it’s very comfortable. Additionally, I was able to find it for a cheaper price, which was just the icing on the cake.

[–] NocturnalNebula@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thanks! Can’t believe I didn’t recognize the 3ds….. 🤦‍♂️ How do you like the Anbernic RG35XX??

[–] TheTeaMonster@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I love it. Its build quality is fantastic and it's very comfortable. And using GarlicOS makes it perfect.

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

You like your Abernic? I’m thinking about getting an RG353V

[–] TheTeaMonster@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Oh yeah I love it. Very, very impressed with how great the build quality is for a device this price.

Yeah, it's nice. I've had it 2 years now. It's sturdy, hasn't broken yet. I'm not feeling the need to upgrade yet. If I was buying new, I'd get something newer. I was considering a GPD Win Mini, but $1000 is a lot and GPD has so many QA issues,

[–] dodgypast@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I've got GC, Wii and WiiU covered by a soft modded WiiU.

PSP and Vita with a modded Vita.

And a modded New 3DSXL for all the portable nintendo platforms.

Everything else I do on my PC.

Thanks, looks pretty cool. Maybe in the 75 form factor for me.

[–] awderon@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Typing this on the air75, love this keyboard. Switched recently to the black shine through keycaps, I like the look even better than the creme keycaps.

[–] awderon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] Haldum96@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thanks! This looks awesome, like something out of the first Alien film.

[–] awderon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

You might also like the look of the Keychron K3. Which will probably be my next one, if or when I get tired of the air75.

[–] Captain_Jimmy_T_Kirk@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What happened to the 2nd screen on the 3DS?!

[–] TheTeaMonster@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Somehow the reflection of my ceiling matched the color of the pad underneath perfectly.
