- Upcoming ANBERNIC RG40XX Handheld “Leaks” | Retro Dodoretrododo.com Upcoming ANBERNIC RG40XX Handheld "Leaks"
A new ANBERNIC retro handheld has been teased called the RG40XX, a 4" screened device featuring Linux as an OS and more.
The popular retro handheld manufacturer ANBERNIC is once again in the spotlight with a leaked video showcasing their upcoming device, the RG40XX. This 4:3 ratio handheld is a blend of features from both the RG Cube and the RG556 models, incorporating LED joysticks which have become a favorite among gamers.
Key features highlighted in the leak include:
- Retained DPAD: Unlike the recent RG35XXSP clamshell device, this model retains the much-loved directional pad.
- High gloss buttons & small bezels: These design elements are reminiscent of classic gaming aesthetics.
- Headphone jack at bottom: A convenient feature for users who enjoy gaming with headphones.
- Colour options: The handheld will be available in black, blue, and grey.
Speculations suggest the device runs on the Allwinner H700 chipset, equipped with a Linux OS. While this brings limitations such as ANBERNIC’s less-than-desirable front-end interface, users can easily customize it to their liking. With a 4" screen sporting a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels, it promises optimal performance for retro gaming.
As of now, information regarding pricing, battery life, and release date remains scarce. However, the leaked video indicates that the product is nearing completion. Historically, leaks like these often precede official announcements by a few weeks and pre-order periods about two months later. Expect an unveiling around July.
Considering the leaked specifications and design elements of the ANBERNIC RG40XX handheld, do you think it offers enough value for retro gaming enthusiasts? What features would you like to see improved or added in future models?

- Finally my old saves are backed up!
Ordered back in Feb and just got delivered!
As soon as I saw the PS1 version release a while back, I was eager to get a PS2 version to backup the single 8MB card I've owned since my first PS2. I got all my games pre-owned back then, so sadly none came with extra memory cards 😭
Initially I ran into some issues copying the save files from my old 8MB to this one (using wLE), ended up turning off the "Game ID" MCP setting so all saves get copied to the same VMC instead of dedicated ones for each game.
Apparently this card works on the PS3 too if you hold the front right button while connecting the USB, looking forward to that since I have some PS1 saves trapped in there...
- Final Fantasy Tactics Was Originally An RTS, And Here's What It Almost Looked Like | Time Extensionwww.timeextension.com Final Fantasy Tactics Was Originally An RTS, And Here's What It Almost Looked Like
"Unfortunately this was scrapped"
On the occasion of Final Fantasy Tactics' 27th anniversary, its director Yasumi Matsuno shared images of an early version of the game that deviates significantly from the final product. Initially aiming for a real-time strategy (RTS) style similar to "Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen," the project was unfortunately scrapped and led to the release of the beloved turn-based tactics game we know today.
Matsuno explains, "This is a sample image from early 1996. We had hoped to continue development with the aim of creating an RTS... unfortunately this was scrapped." The images reveal a different art style compared to the final version.
While the original concept didn't come to fruition, it's fascinating for fans to see what could have been. Final Fantasy Tactics, known today as one of PS1's best games and later remade on PSP as "Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions," continues to captivate players.
Was the decision to pivot from an RTS to a turn-based strategy game advantageous for Final Fantasy Tactics, considering the unique gameplay experience it provided compared to its competitors at the time?

Former Oculus designer and founder of ModRetro, Palmer Luckey, is set to release a new retro handheld gaming device later this year, aiming to compete with the Analogue Pocket. This comes as great news for tech enthusiasts, as it adds another option in the FPGA-based market.
Key Information:
- Device: Palmer Luckey's Chromatic
- Release Date: Holiday season
- Price: $199 per unit
- Technology Used: Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) for hardware emulation, offering more accurate game play compared to traditional software emulators
Distinct Features:
- Design Focus: The Chromatic is tailored specifically to showcase Game Boy games as they were originally released.
- Display Technology:
- Maintains Nintendo's original 160x144 resolution on a screen designed to ensure faithful visual representation of Game Boy games.
Comparison with Analogue Pocket:
- Limited Support: Unlike the Analogue Pocket, which supports multiple platforms and offers enhanced functionality, the Chromatic is geared more towards providing an authentic Game Boy gaming experience.
- Display Difference: While the Analogue Pocket features a high-resolution 1600 x 1440 LCD screen for better detail, the Chromatic maintains the original resolution to deliver a classic visual experience.
Additional Touches:
- Hardware - Magnesium alloy shell, PBT buttons, compatibility with original Game Boy link cables.
- Power Supply - Uses three AA batteries or supports a rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack through USB-C, which also supports lag-free video output.
