I received mine a few months ago and haven't been able to put it down since! Gorgeous device, abhorrent support and communication, lol.

If you're a fellow Pocket Enjoyer, please, share what you've been playing recently.

I keep being tempted to pick one up but I'm not a huge fan of old handheld games. Even growing up I was always like "I wish these were more like the PC or console versions." My first system was a GBC so maybe a bit before my time. Happily playing PC games on a steam deck these days though. My childhood dream is real now! lol

But it's not just handheld games. My analogue pocket has the entire SNES, NES, Mega Drive and Pc Engine libraries, plus Amiga. Loads of MiSTer cores have been ported.

Playing SNES on the pocket is amazing. And it's better on the pocket than any other device I've ever used.

Those were all before my time, so I don't really have any "favorites" I would want to play.

Before your time? Wait what

Fuck me, I'm getting old.
