I just hit 10 hours in Earthbound on my Anbernic RG280V. I'm looking forward to trying some more SNES games once I'm finished (Super Mario World, Street Fighter Turbo II, Zelda: Link to the Past, etc.).

Interested to hear what you all are playing? Or, what retro games are on your "to do" list?

I'm playing Zelda Link's Awakening DX. There's a fan made patch that fixes annoying things like those text boxes popping up every time you pick up an acorn, or when you touch a rock without wearing the strength bracelet. And I was able to continue playing the same save file.

I really didn't think the game would be all that good but it's great. The whole island feels very alive and every screen has something special about it. I wouldn't mind the next generation of Zelda being a little bit like this.

On the remote chance you don't already know - definitely check out Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages. They have the same engine but have much cleverer gameplay and dungeons and much deeper stories.
