Good stuff, og Gameboy was my first handheld I have a lot of fond memories of those games like Zelda, WrestleMania, Castlevania, etc

These days I'm less on mobile gaming I have batocera running on a raspberry pi 4 in one of those small acrylic cases and a small fan

I spent months tweaking a retropie image and basically learning all the Linux config file issues and arcane knowledge to adapt retropie's outdated Emulationstation fork.

... And then I built the next system with Batocera and wow, night and day. Save state UX and configs that work right out of the box, clean interface theme options, customization galore without needing a keyboard. I just wish Ruckage's SNES Classic theme worked on it.
