I got my kids a Switch for the holidays, but today my young one pulled out my Miyoo Mini. It was pretty awesome just being able to pop a few games on for them to check out. My older beat Super Mario Bros. World 1-1. My younger played a round of SF2 Turbo as Bison. My older defeated a Pidgey in LeafGreen. My younger tried unsuccessfully to do the first level of Sonic and Knuckles as Sonic. My younger said he wants to use it tomorrow instead of the Switch šŸ˜³ ---

New Miyoo mini plus is out and first round of preorder units have sold out quick but the next rounds will be coming soon and hopefully keep coming sooner since they wouldnā€™t suffer from them struggling to source that small lcd thatā€™s no longer made anymore. Lots of great reviews and links on where to get it on YouTube. Im sold on it and kinda wanna get it while I can before grabbing a Retriod pocket 3 plus. ---

From what I remember in the three or four main reviews on YouTube yes the fragile drop screen breaking issue some had has apparently been addressed better with the mini plus. ---

Highly recommended using JELOS for OS. For anything youā€™d need to know about it check out the timestamps in this Retro Game Corps review. They also have ArkOS for an alternative CFW comes down to preferences and your own use case really.
