So, some of the games I try fail to work. The result is it saying there is no lua to load and gives a gray screen, just wondering if this is a core or ROM issue. The game in question is Trial of the sorceror.

Device in question is a stock ambernic sp in case that changes anything

So, I'll start. I have 3 devices that I'd say are tied for best

First, my n3ds xl. Beautiful handheld, clamshell, just a nice piece of hardware. If the cstick didn't suck itd be the sole winner. My 3ds has served me very well

I also like my rp4 pro, just a great all round emulation machine. And a functional second analog stick, its almost like analog sticks are meant to be sticks and not pencil top erasers

I also like my ambernic sp, got it recently. Looks cool. And clamshell so yippee

As for the worst, I have a few:

Mandatory jab at the switch. Not awful but cmon, the controls suck

The leapster explorer. Shitty dpad. Insane power consumption, it s afun gimmick, jut kinda useless.

Then I had this little system from lexibook, the "compact cyber arcade" or something. Was silver and white, appeared to be 16 bit. Really shit controls. Buttons weren't even labeled. It also just randomly died after about a decade, but I can't fault it for that I guess.

I also hate tiger handhelds with a passion. Like ignoring the awful game, the controls just SUCK I didn't even pay for the one I do have and I still feel scammed

So, I'm trying to add more games to my sp and am wondering how boxart works. Is it the same as retroarch?

So, I want to add my own games to my sp running stock firmware and want to know if its possible to automate boxsrt scraping, o have had luck with the android build of retroarch getting boxart, does the Linux build do this too?

So, I downloaded some carts and want to play them, however I need to convert the PNG files to a .p8 file.

How do I do this?

So, I'm going to install minui to my sp but the readme says that it needs to be installed "over a fresh copy of stock" what does that mean? Where do I find the stock image?

So, I'm getting a 35xxsp shipped, should be coming in a few weeks, I got an extra card to replace the stock one. Is cfw worth it? Is ambwrnic stock any good? I'd like your advice

Niche question but I need some help. Here is likely the wrong place but idk where else.

I want to buy an ambernic handheld, specifically the sp but I cannot purchase directly because of insane shipping costs. Anyone know any Europe based resellers? Would aliexpress be an option for better prices? I need advice

Edit: ordered it from aliexpress. 76 euros.

I want to buy an ambernic 35xxsp but the official website does not have the colour I want, if I got the color I wanted I'd have to pay way too much in shipping. I reside in the EU. What vendors are good?

So, box art wasn't a problem with vimm ROMs but I've had to migrate to myrient.

I use retroarch on android. How do I get boxart?

The github went down and I don't have it. Anyone can link a copy?

Does anyone have mirrors for the android version of sudachi?
