With major new announcements of super high end handhelds appearing left and right, there's a lot of "Do I need the expensive one, or can I get away with the cheaper one without really noticing the difference?". Since the price can vary SUBSTANTIALLY between the low and high ram and storage models, I thought this was worth discussing.

Most of the conversation focuses on ram. I think that's appropriate - "can I run X?" is much more interesting than "can I run X conveniently?", particularly when you're trying to scrape the bottom of the SKU barrel.

I want to focus in this discussion on storage. There are two dimensions along which it varies in these high end units - technology and capacity

Which games that are available on Vita and elsewhere are best on Vita?

Playing Vita games on powerful computers with Vita emulators doesn't count.

Exclusives don't count. Only games that you could play on other systems, potentially emulated ones.

In light of Yuzu and Citra no longer being emulators where we should anticipate development, how does this change the high end landscape (think, the difference between an RP3+ / 4 / 4Pro / Odin2)?

Are there any differences between these models going forward, aside from PS2 and Gamecube performance?

One really exciting area in this hobby is high end Android handhelds. I’m thinking most recently of the Odin 2, RP4 (pro and not), RG556. There’s extensive review coverage of their differences, but something that’s much less clear to me is precisely how that translates to what systems / games they can play. Obviously, as software improves, this is a moving target, but at any given point in time, we should be able to have clarity there.

This stands in stark contrast to the lower end handhelds, where there’s much more clarity and explicit discussion of which systems and games work, work only with compromises / fiddling with settings, and which don’t work.

I’d be really grateful for people

I discovered handheld emulators recently, and I've got a small fleet of them. I think they're all great, and that the one I like the least for a given system, as long as it has the power to really play it, gives me a pretty similar experience to the one I like the most. I don't like clutter, and I'd like to get rid of all but one or two of them.

How do we do that? Is there a forum / board where I can post my used systems and you can buy them? Do we list them on broad markets like eBay? Local things like Facebook Marketplace?

Where do *you* look to buy second-hand systems? Where do you go to sell yours when you're done?

(I recognize from the content of this subreddit that it's po

I’ve seen a lot of stickers with outlines of Magneto’s helmet (from the X-Men) on cars. They’re usually accompanied by conservative political stickers. What’s the message that these stickers are intended to send?

I’m not much of a color scheme picker. Looking at a color scheme for an upcoming male child. I’d like to come to the table with something other than “baby blue” (I like classics, but there’s a limit). Looking for other color scheme ideas with a slightly masculine energy. Links to images that’ll communicate the idea will help a bunch too.

I'm carless, and I'd like to change that pretty fast. I'm leaning towards a Subaru Impreza wagon. They'll have 2023 ones out in the fall. Right now, I can pay new prices for 2019 models with 10-30K miles.

I'm wondering if there's some smart way to pay around $10K for something that'll likely still be worth $8-10K as a trade-in once the new Imprezas come in (whether that's August or December). Is that a good or bad idea? And what cars (make / model / year / miles) would you recommend I target? (I think 5000 miles is more likely than 10000 for the half year I'd plan to own this car)

Thoughts? Is this a money-losing plan / should I just accept the reality of the market and pay inflated rates

So, the car market appears to be strange. Three year old leased vehicles seem to be the placeholder for new cars, and go for the same prices.

I'm interested in opinions about what cars I may not have considered that I should, and what, of the things I'm considering, will be the least-regrettable choice.

I'm looking for something compact to midsize. I like low to the ground more than raised. I like a wagon / SUV / Hatchback back more than a sedan trunk. I appreciate some power, but I rarely go over the speed limit. I appreciate a nice interior. I'm a big handling snob. I'm from a cold place and favor AWD, but it's not essential. I have a kid, and may have more during my ownership of this
