RG35XX - This is amazing!
(lemmy.world)
Just got this bad boy yesterday and I'm like a kid at Christmas! 😄 The delight I felt firing up my old love, Desert Strike... Goosebumps! Seriously impressed with this bit of kit, and I'm enjoying exploring the options as much as the many many games! The effort put in by the community with GarlicOS and the ROM packs is simply magnificent.
You can play it directly out of the box, but there are custom OS's out there that run things even better and add more features. You do supply the ROMs, but there are plenty of ROM packs out there too to make your life easier. I honestly recommend looking into RetroGameCorps on Youtube, he has some great content around these types of devices.
If you get the RG35XX specifically, I'd recommend this guide.
Ah ok, I should've figured there'd be custom OS's involved, that's awesome. Thx, I'll check out RetroGameCorps. And thanks for the starter guide link, looks super helpful.
I’m sorry if this goes against some instance/community rule and if so please just tell me - but where does one find reliable ROM packs? I only ever used EmuParadise back in the day (as I still do - but don’t tell anyone!)
