I want to stay away from the Site That Shall Not Be Named, so I figured I would check on Lemmy.world for some useful info.

Got an Anbernic RG353V coming in today, and I’m just curious about what I should know getting started with it? I’m trying to temper expectations and have an idea of how to get the best experience possible from it.

    Love my 353v, but I did do some hardware mods to make it even better. I don’t know if you’re comfortable with opening up electronics but I had a great experience upgrading the shoulder buttons and the D pad

    Also, it’s not generally advised to use the SD cards the system comes with as they’re cheap and prone to corruption.

      I already did full backups of both cards and moved the games over to a 200gb Lexar card, along with my own ROM archives. The one thing I have found a consensus on with these systems is that the default cards are garbage.
