Why not here? Hand held consoles are pieces of tech too.

I own a PS Vita first gen with 3.60.

I guess, but it is also gaming related.

I don't
cuz not a fgt

First Gameboy
Gameboy Advance SP with backlit screen
Nintendo DS
Nintendo 3DS XL
PSP
PS Vita

WHAT? that doesnt make any sense

My last console was the SNES, I'm not a child anymore

Yes, I see that there are 2 different boards dedicated to games but here the discussion is gonna be aimed at what hand held console you own or regarding it's working status.

this
it´s the absolute best for both psp and psv games
and a bunch of emulators of course

Well alright user.
Since you are so kind, I'll gladly join your thread.
Currently use PS Vita V1

>tfw no GPD Win
>tfw no GPD Pocket

The problem is these are specifically built for gaming, which we already have multiple boards for discussing, and a simple "what console do you own" is 100% /v/ material.
Now, if you want to talk about doing cool shit with them other than gaming, then you're in the right place. Some of them have decently active hacking communities, go with that for instance.

Let me add that by "hacking" I don't mean pirating shit, i mean going ham with them. Chipmodding, installing random obscure OS's, you name it.

Both /v/ and /g/ is too stupid for this discussion

Forgot the GPD XD

3.60 PSV with microsd

JXD S5800
This is my phone. It emulates up to N64 and plays Android games, including ones with only touchscreen controls by a custom touch simulator driver.

Don't buy one though it's shit for multiple reasons, the biggest being that it is too big. I'm going to be doing a review on it in /csg/ next week.

I have a first run 3ds...what kind of mods are available that won't brick the damn thing?

boot9strap very cool shit, you should take a look

I shall thank you. I've always thought these things has more potential than was being utilized by being a mere game console. Would love to squeeze some functionality out of the thing somehow.

Then again I also thought that about the original DS and psp.

>PS Vita finally has permanent CFW as of today.
>PS Vita finally has micro SD expandability that fits snugly into the game card slot.
>PS Vita can emulate everything that the PSP could but better.
>The scene is exploding with homebrew and optimizations of emulators.

Where were you when the PS Vita became the ultimate handheld device for retro + modern gaming needs?

>retro
yes
>modern
Maybe if the only games you're interested in are un-translated gook Visual Novels

>mods send a thread without a fanbase to Veeky Forums
next time just don't include the word "general"

What is the best handheld for PS1 emulation? GPD XD or GPD Win?
