  • Always appreciate your reviews. Don’t know if I missed it in your article or not, but does the top screen function like the Retroid dual screen add-on? Where you can pick what screen to launch apps on by long-pressing the icon?

    I wish they had gone with recessed sticks like that on the Nova, it would make it so much more pocketable. It’s about PS Vita sized, that fits easily in my pocket. The R36S has recessed JoyCon style sticks, and I Iove that thing. I am not putting the Nova in my pocket with those sticks, so I put the bump back on it, and got a TPU shell for it with even bigger bumps. Might as well make it comfy if it’s not portable.

    1. Half would be 19.5.

    So, second year of college. I would be surprised about my salary vs what that’s worth in today’s economy. I would have been ecstatic with this back then. Would have thought I was living the dream. Inflation is a bitch.

    Also, I probably would be shocked at how cool retro handhelds are now. I just got a Retroid Pocket Nova, and it can play every console I’ve ever had (I stopped console gaming at the PS2). And, it can run some Windows games. At 19, I was rocking a Windows Mobile 6 PDA, with a 624 MHz processor.
