Recently bought a R36S and very impressed for the £21 I paid. Can confirm as per above changing OS is very straight forward and painless. My 4 hour flight felt about an hour I was that engrossed!

£21? Where. Cheapest I can see is Aliexpress at £33 inc.
Tempting for Saturn but my RG35XX H can do basic Saturn.

I'd get a PS Vita.. Vita games on a decent sized screen AND Retroarch etc... Just enough oomph but not for Gamecube

There seems to be so many of these now but I’m lost as to which one to consider

I’d be wanting to look at gba/tbf games, of course if it can do psp as well that be a bonus

I'm eyeing up the anbernic rg556 at the moment. I have a really small Gameboy like anbernic but I just don't get on with the controls.

I've also been looking at using a steamdeck or something like a legion go bust the price I'm not sure I can justify cuerently

I eneded up ordering the 556. Should be here next week. I know I'm getting old when I say this, but I think I want / need the bigger screen too...
