Yogi's tips #1: Affordable retro handheld which can also play C64 productions

Hi guys,

I want to share this with you.

I'm having so much fun with this.

For the ones that haven't heard of it I recently bought this device:

https://k-tec.uk/product/miyoo-mini-plus-retro-handheld/

It's great to be able to play f.i. C64 games everywhere.

These are the platforms it supports:

I bought it in Holland for 80 euros.

You also have to buy an additional microSD card and put the Onion OS and games on it:

Most of the games of different platforms for it can be downloaded for free from:

Hope some of you can also have a lot of fun with this!

Greets,
Yogi

Very cool, y'all. Maybe once I've caught up with some other things I need to upgrade or replace.

I've read several people complained about AliExpress not delivering or f.i. not refunding.

If you're lucky they will deliver!

No issues here with AliExpress at all. I've had refunds for products as well. I would probably say I've made a few hundred purchases for people and myself over the years without any problems. Not sure who you've been talking to but I would say they just had no clue or 'heard it from a friend'.

Also other options are the wildly popular R36S models or the older SF2000. They have a large following with custom firmware, modification tools, etc. I tend to use Rocknix when possible and for the SF2000 the multi-core firmware.

I've read first on the Dutch version of Trustpilot some people complained about AE.

Found the same on the English version:

Yes I believe you there are enough fine alternatives for MM+ with which I have no experience with.

Although the SF2000 is a little under-powered to do C=64 properly from what I remember. Something to do with sound problems I believe. Maybe that's been fixed. Haven't kept up on it lately.

you need to play around with the VICE settings. I think reSID is acceptable, everything else hogs the processor and sounds awful
