Is there a place that collects info on all these sorts of projects and allows you to compare specs and software? I bought a Retroid 2 on a whim but I'm wondering if it's the best out there.



Obscure Handhelds does a good job: https://obscurehandhelds.com/


Thank you. Ive been looking for a site like this.


This is my go-to resource for retro handhelds: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1irg60f9qsZOkhp0cwOU7...


In addition to the sources others have mentioned, https://retrogamecorps.com/ and his YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/RetroGameCorps are pretty great, especially the in-depth guides.

https://www.youtube.com/c/ETAPRIME and https://www.youtube.com/c/ThePhawx are also good YouTube channels, although they tend to stick to higher end systems.

Finally, https://www.reddit.com/r/SBCGaming/ has a pretty active community. There are also a couple of good discord servers that I could track down if you're interested.


I don't know of a site, but Taki Udon on YouTube follows them very closely.

Retro Dodo does as well.

"The best" is very subjective unfortunately. And the answer will change based on what you're looking for.

IE I've searched for "the best" and ended up with an android phone in a telescopic controller before getting a Steam Deck.
