  Having a "Best handheld of the year" video from you is always a year end's highlight!

  SteamDeck OLED coming out of nowhere was truly an amazing surprise!<br><br>What a great way to end 2023, looking forward to what surprises 2024 holds for all of us!

  I bought a retroid pocket 3+ based on your videos and I couldn’t be happier. It took a minute to get it set up (again thanks for the guide) but once I got it where I wanted it was the perfect console for me. I take it everywhere I go and it keeps me company on airplanes and in hotels when I travel. Thank you so much and keep up the good work

  My dream handheld is pretty much just a new take on the DS/3DS. I’d love for someone to try out the twin-screen setup someday

  Last year’s wrap up is what led to me jumping into the retro handheld space and getting a Miyoo Mini. But I’ve continued watching these videos and so I also got a RP3+ and Miyoo Mini Plus. Now I’m in the process of setting up my Odin 2 and I’ve been setting up Mini Pluses for a bunch of my coworkers and family. 😂 Russ, thank you for the hard work that you put into all of your high quality videos.

  I purchased a Miyoo Mini Plus for my bday earlier this year (paid a bit higher as I ordered on Amazon though) and it&apos;s excellent. I have other retro handhelds (modded 3DS XL and PS Vita) but I&apos;m really impressed with the Miyoo and how small it is and how many games it plays. I second your recommendation of that device at that price point, and it was because of videos like yours that I bought one. thank you.

  Miyoo mini plus dipped my toes in the retro handhelds. Loved it so much, I got all 4 colors. I&apos;ve curated my own sd card and had a blast doing it. Gifting two of them to my kids for Christmas. Currently looking for an horizontal handheld upgrade to level up. Trimui smart pro was looking good, but the performance and negative reviews made me look away. I hope it gets better in 2024. Cant wait for new handhelds that come out next year. <br><br>After turning 40, I really enjoy these retro handhelds. My XBOX series S is just collecting dust. Thank you.
