So I got a Miyoo Mini Flip and a long airplane trip ahead. The device plays GB, GBA, SNES, NES, that kind of power. Please give me game recs! If there are ports of games it can play that are worth it, that's great too!!

You should download the GBA Balatro homebrew. It’s seriously addictive: https://github.com/GBALATRO/balatro-gba

Also tactical RPGs are great, like Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, Advance Wars 1+2, and any of the Fire Emblem GBA games (look for translated roms).

I also especially like old Lucas arts (and similar) adventure games on SCUMMVM.

I haven’t tried it but also there’s apparently a Plex port for Onion OS out there, so if you have a plex server or know someone who shares, you can download stuff to your Miyoo Mini Flip and watch it.

Final Fantasy Tactics and Advance Wars are awesome games, played them both. I'll consider fire emblem.

I know NY brother's hooked to Balatro, I didn't know there was a GBA port lmao that's so cool, I'm 100% getting that!

I've been playing the balatro homebrew! It is addictive, I just don't think they have any in-game descriptions of the jokers so I have to look them up to figure out which one I'm buying, and they don't even have the joker name to give you a hint, you need to work out the icon...

I thought they recently updated to include some short descriptions, no?

Edit: yeah just check again and they introduced in v0.2.1 in addition to a lot of other stuff. I need to update the rom.

Oh nice! Will have to do the same.
