I just hit 10 hours in Earthbound on my Anbernic RG280V. I'm looking forward to trying some more SNES games once I'm finished (Super Mario World, Street Fighter Turbo II, Zelda: Link to the Past, etc.).

Interested to hear what you all are playing? Or, what retro games are on your "to do" list?

I dusted off my childhood n64 and trying to do a 100% speed run of ocarina of time. It's been a while since I've played it, I think the last time I did a playthrough was when it was re-released for the 3ds.

I already had to start my save over after discovering there's a glitch, after you get the saw it is impossible to get one of the stick capacity upgrades.

I've been streaming it locally to some friends on discord, it's been a good time.

Have you looked into the port? I played it in my Steam Deck earlier this year. It's phenomenal.

Playing at 60fps with right stock camera controls makes it feel like a new game.

I have seen it, it looks good and I plan on playing it eventually, but there's something about that nostalia of playing with the n64 controller... Plus the lag spikes when there's too many elements on screen, classic.

I really want to play the port but I do most of my retro gaming on the go using my retroid pocket 3. Instead I've been playing OOT using the redux patch, which does add quite a few QOL improvements, just no camera control unfortunately.
