  • Retro games should be played on original hardware! But everyone says the Miyoo Mini is an even better way to play everything up to PS1. I bought into the hype and purchased a Miyoo Mini Plus, so is it actually fun? And who exactly is it fun for? Let's ask our guest expert!

    I run into the same choice paralysis issue with these things. I have to go into it with one specific game in mind otherwise I just get overwhelmed with the options.

  • @judsonanderson9007
    @judsonanderson9007 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    The best way I avoid the game decision issue is to only have a few games per system loaded on at a single time. That way I'm focused on finishing one of them before I remove that game from the memory card and load a new one onto it.

    • @yourcoolunclemarisa
      @yourcoolunclemarisa  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Absolutely. I'm glad we left it as is though for this one, how else would we have found Pinball of the Dead?

    Haha great and fun review you two! I know I was bugging you to try it out months ago Uncle, and I’m glad you finally did the video 😂
    While the Tiny Best Set of games is nicely curated, I often recommend folks load up only a handful of games per system, when it comes to emulating, because like you said - you end up just scrolling through all the games, overwhelmed, resulting in turning off the system! I do 100% with DS games, though. I don’t care if it’s the Miyoo mini or the Steam Deck… DS games belong on a DS. Period!

    • @yourcoolunclemarisa
      @yourcoolunclemarisa  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I'm glad I did! I think culling it is absolutely not a bad idea as it stands, but it at least provided some weird little games for this video.

      omg, how did I forget the abominable brick. My favorites are the DSi and the New 3DS. I would say DS Lite if I didn't have a GBA and they didn't have so many yellow screens.

It was a blast to see your video in my sub list...i try to not be on TH-cam as much those days since I've started another new daily job where they expact me to be a boss for a cuple of programmers (I'm like..

    Obsessed with y’all 💞 PS For Christmas I gave Miyoo Mini Pluses with OnionOS to all my cousins who are non-gamers and they really liked it! But I’m more like you, uncle, because for Christmas I got myself an AGS-001 and I do prefer that for the simplicity and crunchy nostalgic screen 😁

    • @yourcoolunclemarisa
      @yourcoolunclemarisa  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That is such an awesome gift! I think I will be getting my girlfriend one of her own too. More crunch for us >:)

    I think my favorite Final Fantasy was part one for GBA. I really loved Final Fantasy Tactics for Playstation as well. I got all thirteen stones. I think I remember Cloud in there as well but it's been a while.

    This one was cute. I liked the dynamic between you two and between the Miyuu Mini and your partner ^-^
    In the beginning you mentioned being overwhelmed, and I can't relate more. I have my og mini, and I love the smaller size, but... so many games... I end up using my analogue pocket or Game Boy lol

    • @yourcoolunclemarisa
      @yourcoolunclemarisa  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I am so tempted to go for the OG mini for cute factor but I know I wouldn't use it. I get choice paralysis between my retro consoles as it stands as well :'U

    You should make a second sd card with some select games you want to focus on, itll help you with the overwhleming library anxiety and get to playing :)

    If I had a dime for every time a non-gamer friend or co-worker ooed and awed when they see my RP2 and then ask me where they can get one cuz they want to play sonic or old final fantasy or something, knowing they don't have the desire or familiarity with emulation to set it up. Maybe I'll reccommend this to them.

      That is so cool! I love that videogames are a part of everyone's history, even if they don't claim to play them. My mom vehemently hated videogames but she was obsessed with her Brick Game console nonetheless haha

    I find it very funny that you covered your girlfriend with the miyoo mini until the reveal. I also have an issue where I really like staring at my emulation device rather than playing them.

    If you do do a Video about my Easter Egg make sure you have an official Cartridge then use the Epilogue GB Operator to mess with it officially so there is no question it's just a backup. Then when you are finished with everything in the Video have the M.I.B's knock at the door and say they want to ask you a few questions. It's cheaper than my original idea of S.W.A.T coming in.🤣🤣🤣

    Go read my comments that You Tube banned for some cool information that was Deleted. I personally thought it was innocent enough. I know you have no control over what goes out but take a look for yourself because you should have at least control of looking at what was banned in the USA. It was more for you anyways. I hope this message doesn't self destruct like everything else I wrote. I will give you a hint. It's my own personal Easter Egg. I couldn't have done it without Natsume though putting it in the code though so thank them too.
