Speaking of which, I’d love to have a version of r/SBCgaming in here. The incoming RK3588 devices will be incredible.

Both the RG35XX and the Miyoo mini are amazing devices for the price range, I greatly recomend watiching retro games corp video on them, basically they can run up to PS1 flawless and supports saves and save states, it’s the kinda of handheld you keep on yourself all the time to play when you’re bored or on a queue, not very comfortable for long play sessions. The RG os built like a tank and has real time clock for Pokémon games with a worse d pad, Miyoo don’t has the clock but has wifi for net play, OTA updates, better screen and dpad but tends to have some build quality issues.

Pretty sure it’s the RG35XX? Right?

In order to do that you’ll need to first change your /CFW/skin/settings.json to have "text-alignment": "left" and "text-margin": 300 to shift your games list to the right. Next you’ll want to use a tool like Skraper to generate your images so it is transparency on the right where your games list is and put what you want to display on the left. You can use the image mixes provided from ebzero on Github or the 2 image mix with only the gameplay screenshot and box art that I’ve modified below and place the xml into the Mixes subdirectory of Skraper:

<ImageComposition xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="https://www.skraper.net/ImageComposition.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

          </Children>
        </Fallback>
      </Fallback>
    </Item>
    <Item Type="Box2DFront">

    </Item>
  </Drawings>
</ImageComposition>

When you’ve decided what you want to use, find the Media Type option under the Media tab in Skraper and choose User Provided Mix and then you can select the custom xml file you want to use when running Skraper.

Just because it’s Chinese doesn’t mean it’s no good. I have several of Anbernic’s devices and they’re wonderful.

Despite the literal mountains of shit that has come out of China, they are capable of making some nice things.

The RG35XX hit the right spot of having “good enough” hardware at a low price. It’s been a smash success.

If you look at something like the RG353M, it costs more than twice as much as the RG35XX, is a little faster, but its design feels ultra premium like something Samsung or even Apple would make. It’s compact, metal, and has quite a bit of heft.

Half the shit you own was made in China lol
