  I love a good handheld but am struggling to wrap my brain around when this device would be desirable to use or have around. I can’t think of a time I wouldn’t prefer something the size of an r36s especially with it’s far larger library of games.

    Its for people who like simple games (theres over 400+ now) and “game and watch” kind of setup. I like putting it in my wallet and bringing it out when I get bored. It gets something like 8-9 hours of battery life. So much that I forget to charge it for weeks on end.

    You can also tinker like crazy. I got a couple of games and apps that work with it. Its all C++ but as long as it runs on an Arduino it can most likely run on the device.

    I have a miyoo mini plus. And it doesn’t scratch the itch that the arduboy has with simple/tinker games. Both are made for different reasons.

    Hope that answers your question!

  Man I crazy or is the aspect ratio on that screen a little weird

    No you’re right - it’s 2:1, which is an unusual aspect ratio. But it looks like it’s intended to run games designed specifically for it rather than emulating other systems, so I guess it’s less a drawback and more a neat quirk.
