The Best Retro Handheld 2024

Editorials
retroportable

I recently purchased this really fun Game Boy refurb called “Pastel Boy” from Vapor95 which is a reseller for Gamerchanger Mods. They took a case from MizuCat (which was limited to 50), some upgrades and voila: you get a new Game Boy. I haven’t received it yet but it got me hankering for more: I realized this wasn’t a Game Boy Color. This was, by all accounts, a wonderful decoration for my house and nifty toy but it wasn’t really useful. I needed something where I could bring my massive library that I have amassed of portable games around with me and the Zelda Game & Watch is really useful, but it only has Zelda. I don’t want just PSP either, I want GBA! Luckily that’s where retro handhelds come in. Steam Deck / ROG Ally These devices are now more aesthetic or price based – $150 or less to…

Dave the Diver Gold & Bei Guide

Guides
image 1

Money talks and in Dave the Diver it might literally walk in this mash-up of every kind of adventure and action mechanic thrown into one. Dave the Diver is so much fun, but you’ll need to do a lot of grinding across everything from a Farmville-esq farm to your own hatchery. To fuel it all you’ll need gold above the surface and Bei below the surface. This guide may contain mild spoilers on later game mechanics. Farming Gold in Dave the Diver Gold is obtained through three methods: sushi sales, quests and selling fish and items. The first is going to be your biggest revenue driver and fund your expeditions the most. The second, questing, is going to help get you to the next quest a bit faster and get you some much needed upgrades. The last is reserved for the lower tier fish and any items that are meant…

Dave the Diver Review: A Comfy Sea Adventure

Reviews
DAVETHEDIVER Lobby

Dave the Diver Developer: MintRocket MSRP: $19.99 – Steam Dave the Diver captivated me within the first few minutes of playing. After dinner I was on my PC exploring the Blue Hole with Dave and loving every second of it. Dave the Diver is an action 2D/3D mash-up that has you exploring the Blue Hole with Dave while running a seaside Sushi resturant. There’s so much more though jammed into this amazing must play game. Dave the Diver is definitely well put together, the pixel art is striking and the game systems are considerate and have been iterated on efficaciously through the game’s early access. We don’t give any sort of numerical or percentile ranking to games, but if anything about Dave catches your eye then I would definitely say it’s worth the full price admission. It does everything it promises and it does it well and my nights with…

Star Trek Online Recurring and Recruitment Events Guide

Guides
bjpredkhkrhjdcmvgdbc

Star Trek Online has events that happen at different intervals. There’s usually an event that’s the major campaign running roughly a full year long. Then there are the events inside of that campaign, each running roughly a month. Then there are seasonal events that occur each year. Finally there are recurring events and recruitment events that you should be on the lookout for. The recurring events usually run a weekend, but some run a week. They provide bonuses to key gameplay mechanics from duty officers to currency. A lot of players hold resources for each of these events because it’s for instance the best time to open a lockbox (to get more mining claims) or when it’s time to upgrade items (saving their Phoenix Box upgrade tokens for the item upgrade weekend). In our guide below we run down the recurring events and what bonuses they provide along with an…

Temu Shopping App Tier List

Guides
temu hero

Temu is designed to be an app to swirl you into a mystical shopping frenzy. There’s so much to pick from and a lot of fatigue when it comes to finding just what Temu is good for. That’s why we’ve put together a list of items, into various tiers, of what’s worthwhile to turn to Temu for and what’s not. Our S Tier is items that are well worth it and likely much less than other retailers (when there is no shipping fees). Meanwhile, lower tiers are items you may not even want to deal with at all on the site. One of the fun things about Temu is that it’s loaded with neat little mini-games like “hat trick” and “fishland” but none of these games actually pay out the reward (the free item) without inviting multiple users to the app. So probably the best advice you’ll get is to…

Legends of Idleon MMO Class Tier List (World 6 Update)

Guides
legendsofidleonclasslist

This guide will help you understand which classes are the best (and worst) in Legends of Idleon, which order to choose for your characters and exactly why. This is something that actually determines how well you’ll do in the entire game and how much you can advance because each of the classes are much more proficient in some resources than others. The Class Tier List So let’s break this down. The warrior should be your first class that you make because it’s going to be focused on mining, the first really important resource for you and it’ll be really good at farming something you’ll want to pour a lot of your resources into for your first character. Warriors do a multi-swing attack in melee, making them a lot more effective at farming actively than Mages and Archers, who attack at range. Idleon is a game of minimizing damage, so melee…

Forspoken Early Game Boss Guide and Tips

Guides
Forspoken Hero SE

Forspoken is a isekai video game that has you in a magical world working to get back home. The start of the game really sets up the rest of the game and is likely the hardest part to get through so we’ve got some tips and tricks for the early part of the game to get you up and started.

There’s a demo available for PC players hesitant to purchase. It’s recommended to try the demo first to see how you like it before buying on PC. Down…

Legends of Idleon – Farming Gems Guide

Guides
idleon gemshop

Gems are a premium currency in Legends of Idleon and are obtained both with real world cash and freely in the game. While the easiest way to obtain gems is to buy them directly and conversely, the cheapest way is through a bundle when offered. Yet that doesn’t mean you can’t get a fair amount for free in the game. Let’s go over the daily stops you’re going to want to hit to farm gems. Below are the reasonable sources to farm gems from and how often they reset. If you have trouble with bosses, make sure you’re using the right class. Every Boss in the Game (Daily) All mini-bosses and bosses in the game drop gems (although you may need to unlock it for that world at the task board). This is the primary method of farming gems. For bosses, you’ll want to use the lowest level (1 key…

MAONO DM30 Condenser RGB Microphone Review

Reviews
maono hero

A stylish condenser microphone that had frequently updated software, full on-mic control for sound, an output jack and can be mounted is something of a rare find in the sub-$100 bracket. The MAONO DM30 (Amazon | Official Site) comes out on top as a microphone that provides not only top tier sound but provides all the various bells and whistles of a much higher end microphone. There’s a lot out there, but a lot of it doesn’t come with many features, is poorly built or just kind of lackluster in the sound department. When we took a look at the DM30 we took an extensive look at what came in the box and you actually get a lot here. You get a standard mount and a USB cable that works as both usb-c and usb-a allowing you to use it with thin laptops and any other computers. The RGB flows…
