Just bought an RG35XX, which would be best for me, garlicos or batocera? (kbin.social)
I mostly want to play consoles that I know garlic will run, minus the DS. Only DS games I want to run are Pokemon, so the lack of inputs isn't an issue....

6-button Controller Appreciation Thread (kbin.social)
Just a thread for anyone else out there who prefers the layout of a 6-button controller to the more dominant ABXY layout. What I wouldn't give for a dual stick, dual trigger gamepad that also had six face buttons.

Anyone know any games similar to the Spyro GBA ones? Isometric collectathons? I need more like this. (kbin.social)
I wrote an article about the 3 games and just how good they are. Imo, they're extremely underrated. I really wanna play more games similar to it but I can't find much in the way of isometric collectathons(?) at all. Looking for any suggestions. Apologies if this isn't the right spot. GBA is retro right?...
