Anbernic’s first 2026 devices, the #RGVita and #RGVitaPro, have been announced. I’ve always liked Vita-inspired handhelds, but I probably won’t pick one up since I already have the Thor Pro, Odin 3 Pro, and RG477M. Curious to see Anbernic’s pricing and who these are really aimed at. Thoughts?

I'm at the airport waiting for my flight, but I'm still working on the Odin 3 vs AYN Thor pc games video.
I'm about half way done with it so hopefully I'll be able to publish it soon.

I’ve been so impressed with the #AYNThor lately that it’s actually interfered with my video making schedule!
But now I’m working on an #Azahar setup guide on the Thor for #3DSemulation. Let me know if there is anything specific you’d like me to cover.

I was on the fence about buying Destiny 2 Renegades as my new year holidays game, but god damn it @skillup.bsky.social is just too good at convincing me to try new games I haven't tried before so I decided to go with Arc Raiders instead.

Trying Steam on the #RG477M with #GameHubLite. Celeste and Stardew were smooth, Octopath II felt fine on High CPU, Hades needed the Performance preset, Silksong was excellent. Megabonk dipped, Hades 2 would not run. I put the settings in a free write‑up if you need a starting point. Video out soon!

Got a modded #3DS? You can play that whole library on Android with better performance and keep your saves. I cover CXI/CIA dumps (GodMode9), save backups (Checkpoint), imports to Azahar, and a quicker bulk method using threeSD on PC. Tested on #RG477M, solid on #AYNThor and #PocketDS.

The only thing left is for Valve to nail the pricing. Everything they’ve shown looks exciting, but the real game changer is the price. If they subsidise it like the Steam Deck, I think the competition, especially Microsoft, will struggle to keep up.

Cancelled my AYANEO Pocket DS pre-order.
Too many trade-offs, and confirmed light bleed was the final push.
AYANEO handled it well though — honest and fast with the refund.
