Adorable! What's it called? What's the dongle for?
5
It is very cute indeed! The rg351p does not have bluetooth, so the dongle is for the keyboard.
9
Your set up looks great. The lack of Wi-Fi is the only thing keeping my from getting the rg351p.
6
The RG351M has wifi, fyi.
9
It comes with a wifi dongle, just not built in. Or at least mine did.
1
Mine didn't have a dongle unfortunately.

Love it! I've got this keyboard and this device! I always use the dongle it came with, however, which was prepaired. Does it work with any bluetooth dongle? Didn't even know the RG351 could accept keyboard inputs.
What are the little plastic clips and where can I buy some?
2
The keyboard and its dongle use a proprietary wireless connection incompatible with bluetooth I'm afraid.
The plastic clips are 3d printed. If you have a 3d printer, I've commented the STL file here. Just save the text as an html file and drop that in a browser to get a 'download' link to a zip file.

What process did you use to get PICO-8 onto the Abernic? Are you using an OpenDingux build? I just picked up an RG280V and am curious.
5
I just blindly followed these steps by the retro console guy on arkOS.

RG280V won't run Pico-8. Not natively anyway.
3
I had to try this myself. It's so impractical but I love it.

Late reply but how did you access the code section, whever I press escape it opens a menu to quit, and when I open the game it launches straight into splore. Any help would be appreciated.
1
Hmm.. to be honest I only quickly tested this with one of my own carts, didn't try running splore or games through that way. Might not be able to get to code on splore games?
1
All good, I just reinstalled all Pico 8 files rather than the 3 files recommended in the guide I saw and it's installed the whole application rather than just splore. Thanks for replying though.
1
that looks really neat, how did you get it?
3
It's just two flat holders that I 3d printed by measuring the keyboard and the rg351p.
6
This looks really neat! What are the parts?
3
It's a rg351p with a Rii X1 Mini keyboard, a mini A to C adapter to fit the dongle and two little 3d printed feet to put them together.
5
do the keyboard work well with the anbernic and the DOS emulator too?
3
I haven't tried yet (I don't have a DOS emulator installed). But for scummvm games and halflife the trackpad works well, so I assume DOS also works.
3
You played Half-life with a trackpad?
2
You should cross post this to r/cyberdeck they'll love it.
3
daaaamn really cool how they fit together
2
What's the keyboard. I want one
2
It's the Rii X1 Mini. The key positions and missing keys are a bit awkward, but all are nice and clicky microswitches. The trackpad works well for me too.
3
The keyboard, how is it called?
2
It's an Rii X1 Mini keyboard.
2
Yup, I'd love to try something like this.
1
clever! i love it!

I fucking love this.
