We're really living through an age of remakes from a good chunk of the larger studios.

I guess they're comparatively low effort and give them more time to cook with actual new titles though, so I can't say I mind too much.

On the bright side though, maybe it'll launch on Sony's cloud streaming platform. It'd be one heck of a sales surge for the Portal if it did.

Definitely one to check out if you're a fan of the series.

So Anbernic's sub-$100 DS handheld is... $99.99... I suppose that adds up lol.

The power isn't really there for me. Doesn't seem like there's enough to really show the benefits of emulation over playing on hardware. Having a glance on eBay, a DSi XL is £50ish (~$65). A much better option with CFW.

We also covered AYANEO's Pocket Air Mini earlier this week. There's a lot of handhelds on the market, but this one seems to be making a bit of a splash for its sub-$100 price point and pretty nice build quality.

Holding out for some dual screen action myself, but there might be something here.

Gosh a Neo Geo Pocket Color game gets a fan translation game after 25 years!

It just felt that bit too dated for my taste, though maybe I should give it another shot.
