I skimmed the reviews and I don't get the audience for these things. Sleep mode not working and crappy emulation for anything beyond like PS1 (PSP and N64 seems terrible). Just doesn't seem interesting to me when there are handheld emulators that can run all this stuff great.

Usually third party software comes along to fix some problems. Garlic/Onion and another one that clones the Analogue Pocket UI. And the hardware is sometimes around $60.

Gonna wait on this despite all the positive reviews- just get the feeling there's going to be hinge issues popping up or problems with the thermals based on the design.

Not really RLM but RLM-adjacent.

When you first get that riddle, it's the most anxiety inducing shit in the world.  But if you do find it...

In that moment, you'll be euphoric. Not because of any phony Sphinx's blessing. But because, you're enlightened by your intelligence.

It's also super easy to get on NG+, because like you said, just take a screenshot on the map where you pick up your first seeker token

Took me about 3 hours, but found it.  I thought too hard about it and was indecisive... SHould've stuck with the guide numerically and would've asaved half the time, but oh well... Got it.   Did look up the rest of the riddles, and glad I did.  I haven't done any archer build, so I may go ahead and start it, since it was highly recommended for the last part... 

However, I decided to take a break from the riddles (still have like 3 left) and go back to the other side quests.  I still haven't found Magic Archer or Warfarer yet, so going to prioritize those before tackling the rest of the riddles.

With Assassins Creed yall freaking out about a nothing burger.

The main character is obviously the Shinobi waifu doing the stealth, the "warrior" class in these modern AC games is just the Funky Kong easy mode for players who can't stealth.

Here comes Aya with more emulator handhelds.  That GBA Micro one looks slick.

I keep going back and forth on buying one of those lower end handhelds. This GBA SP is appealing. As was the Sega Saturn pad with a screen one. But I have the Steam Deck for bigger emulation. And if you spend a little more the Android handhelds seem more versatile.

Speaking of, Ayn Odin Mini sure looks familiar
