Game console L35 Review: TrimUAin’t
https://retrohandhelds.gg/game-console-l35-review/
Let’s be real: if you’re shopping for a $30 handheld, you’re not buying luxury—you’re buying hope. And the Game Console L35? It’s the handheld equivalent of a “luxury” cereal box with raisins stuck to the bottom.
It looks nice. Feels decent. Sounds fine. The buttons? Passable. The speakers? Surprisingly not terrible. But then… the D-pad. Oh, sweet summer child. This thing doesn’t just suck—it inhabits the void where a good D-pad should be. It’s like pressing a R3 button with your thumb… but for everything. Mega Man? Forget it. Mario? Good luck not accidentally jumping into a pit every 3 seconds. Someone at WDSZKMYF (yes, that’s the brand) signed off on this. We may never recover.
Screen? Basic R36 panel. Software? Outdated EmuElec. No Wi-Fi, no video out, just vibes and regret. It’s not even a good TrimUI Brick clone—it’s what happens when you copy the shape but forget to copy the soul.
If you want a budget gem, grab an R36XX. It’s cheaper, better built, and doesn’t weaponize your D-pad against your sanity. The L35? Pretty to look at on your shelf. Terrible to play. Stick it in a drawer, take a photo, and call it art. 🎮❄️
