Grab your coffee and settle in—it’s been a whirlwind week in the handheld world, filled with everything from nostalgic rumors to some frustrating hardware news.
The biggest buzz? SEGA might be making a comeback. Rumor has it a company with a history of licensed SEGA hardware is eyeing a new retro handheld, potentially even featuring physical cartridges. If that’s true, the nostalgia levels are about to go off the charts.
On the hardware front, we have some mixed signals:
- The Good: ASUS is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a stunning translucent ROG Xbox Ally X20 edition.
- The Bad: Anbernic fans, take note—there’s growing evidence of hardware downgrades, specifically DDR3 RAM being swapped into newer RG40XXH boards.
- The Software: Big wins for emulation! GameNative has hit its 1.0 pre-release, and a new Linux distro called Armada is emerging to give Android handhelds a more SteamOS-like experience.
Whether you’re hunting for deals on the AliExpress summer sale or waiting for that elusive SEGA hardware, there’s plenty to keep your thumbs busy this week.
