Miyoo Mini Plus Handheld Game Console 3.5-inch 640*480 IPS Screen 3000mAh Miyoo-Mini+ with Portable Case Transparent Purple

Great for all ages, especially those wanting to relive our 90s/early 2000s childhoods
I gifted this to my 9 year old for his birthday yesterday and he was immediately obsessed. Out of the box, it has a plethora of games ready to play, but there are a couple of things that I recommend doing right away.Update the memory card with a higher quality, name brand one, like Sandisk or Samsung. You can get one for $10-$15 depending on the size. The one it comes with has plenty of storage, but it has no brand listed and who’s to say how great the quality is or how long the life is, so better to be safe than sorry.Follow a YouTube tutorial to install the operating system Onion (if it doesn’t come with it already, like mine did). It opens up a whole new library of games for different consoles that are compatible with this device, and installing it is a lot easier than it sounds. Onion even has a desktop installer that simplifies everything tenfold, and will even format the memory card for you all in one without any extra steps.Learning how to install new games is essential as well, but again, a lot easier than it sounds. There is a megathread on Reddit that has most everything you need in one place. Just download, drag, and drop into the memory card’s Rom folder for the specific console type (gameboy, PS, etc.). You don’t even need to extract each individual zip file. With Onion, you can also utilize a program called Scraper by pressing Y in the games list to find the box art for every game installed on the device, if there’s not one already, so the picture will pop up instead of just the highlighted name of the game on the list. So far, I am finding that certain PlayStation files will not work, so you need to find the ones that will (unsure of the name off the top of my head, but will update if I come back to this post). If nothing else, the stock card already has an extensive list of games to choose from.So far, I’m fairly impressed and as a kid, I would’ve freaked out if I had all of my gameboy and console games in one device. Miyoo is a reputable brand as far as these devices go, and I appreciate the kit that this device comes with as it has all the necessities I look for in a new device in one (screen protector and case), that not a lot of other listings are offering at this price.

A Great Device if you have a modicum of tech savvy
With the Onion OS version, everything works out of the box, however, if you want to add your own ROMs (as I’m sure you will) it’s not 100% a frictionless and intuitive experience. I had to look up how to do it.For future purchasers here’s how to do it: (note: I intuited all these steps except for the last one) 1) take out microSD from bottom of device 2) put microSD in usb microSD reader and plug that into computer (included though I purchased my own) 3) find the roms file within your microSD and drag and drop the roms to the appropriate console subfolder (ex: the NES folder, say) 4) safely eject usb reader and put sd card back in console (so far this is relatively simple for most even non tech savvy folk as long as you understand folders and the way they’re structured) 5) (this is what I had to look up ) navigate to your emulators page (press the Games option on main menu) on your miyoo, press select button and press refresh ROMs.There you go, now roms should show up. One last tip: to add an emulator that doesn’t come with the console (the Nintendo ones for example) navigate to right on main menu and press a on apps option. Select “Package Manager” and turn on the emulators you want.If you could do both of those things, you’ll be fine, but it just takes a tiny bit of doing. After that, the system is fantastic and I’m especially impressed by the vibrant screen.

Worth the cost of playing the classics
It’s a great little console that will let you play a ton of retro’s. I like how easy it is to just turn on and start playing. For anyone looking to play the old games (Atari, arcade, etc), this is a good low cost way to achieve that.

Not as Advertised!!!! You have to put a different Operating system on it to get all the games
This device doesn’t come with the amount of games it they claim it has, you have to wipe the drive and put a different operating system called onion on it. THIS Device is NOT PULL OUT OF BOX AND PLAY READY!!! you have to be technically minded to set this device up!!! And instructions on Youtube are hard to follow!!!

Muy Buena Consola tiene un montón de Juegos Retro y de Excelente Calidad. Además trae Funda Protectora lo que es muy bueno.

Se siente bien construído y los juegos “de prueba” incluídos están de 10! Me encantó y mas por que te la opción de incluir mas juegos mediante una memoria. Sin duda volvería a comprarlo

Lo compré para mi novia porque ama los juegos de Nintendo; lástima que NO trae ningún juego de Nintendo, esos los tienen que descargar, y es un rollo. Pero los juegos que tiene son buenos, y funcionan, la mayoría; de los que hemos probado, la Sirenita NO funciona bien, pero es cuestión de cambiarle el Sistema operativo, y descargar emuladores, y tunearla, para sacarle provecho al 100%
