Hey, Josh from PartTimeCAD here, thanks for the shoutout and reviewing some of my stuff! The retro handheld community is great and it's such a blast seeing what everyone comes up with, between custom firmware and mods and accessories.
Very sweet and considerate of you to carry those stickers . I might never accost you myself but it's nice to know that it'll be pleasant for anyone who does. 😊
As someone whose fingers are too long to comfortably sit on the R1 and L1 buttons, I remap the R2 and L2 to also be R1 and L1. The better buttons for the RG35XX makes hitting the R2 and L2 much easier and less uncomfortable. For anyone that does this I HIGHLY recommend them, they made this already amazing device even better for me.
I got the clickiess back into the modded L2 and R2 buttons on my miyoo mini by adding a bit of tape under them so that they fit more snug. Took a while to get it right but they feel great now.
Your channel is so awesome and has done so much to teach me all the cool stuff I want to learn about the world of emulators. Thanks for being so helpful!
I absolutely love that clip shield for the RP3+ and printed a couple of them myself. There is a decent file out there for a grip that you can download and print, I'll happily come back with the link after I get home!
Love your Channel Bob but I never watched your emulator videos since I didn't know what it was I got my self a samsung s23 and emulated some games mario sunshine mario party and love it now I can relate with emulators LOL
Loved this! Always curious about different ways to customize my gear and have often times found searching for fun ( even just cosmetic ) changes can be very tiresome in the swaths of junk that is also out there.
You aren’t joking about the transparent purple plastic being fragile… my rg35xx grew a crack across the front of the shell. All I did was unbox it and plug it in to charge 😂
I got the Sakura holographic analogue logo, and the carbon fiber camo front decal, plus the carbon fiber camo cartridge slot decal. I also got the bottom cover decal from Sakura, and the 3D printed cartridge cover I think also from Sakura. All of them are excellent.
I got my 3d printer 2 months ago and my Miyoo Mini Plus 1 week ago. Needless to say I've been printing stuff for it 😅. PartTimeCAD case is my favorite so far.
I've had my prusa mini+ for 2 years now! Ran almost 24/7 with minimal issues. Enclosed it and it runs nylons with ease now. Great content and video dude!
Is it me or has he only been talking about handheld emulators this year? He may talk other things but it's usually handheld emulators videos back to back. This is just something I've notice.
Hmm, I actually got to know his channel specifically because of handheld emulators - didn't know he ever made videos about something else. I'd be totally okay if his channel was completely about handheld emulators, he truly excels at it.
Of his 14 videos this year, only 4 have been about handheld emulators; this video, the Miyoo Mini PLUS video, the RG35XX video, and the Retroid Pocket video. The others have been about modding a DS, making a Steam Deck home arcade, Joy-Con Drift, DualSense VS Elite Controllers, NSO, the Razer Edge (which can be used for emulation but is more a Steam Deck competitor), PSVR 2, GameCube Joy-Cons, games he's excited about, and the 3DS eShop.
@@godminnette2 my mistake. I forgot to add for this year and previous. I kinda started to pick up his trends of handheld emulators at around the end of last year.
Hey, this is the second video of yours I watch, first was top retro handhelds of '23. i liked the straight forward way you ranked them, have none, been a couple of weeks listening to specialized tubers and on the search for a good one. Kudos for your very clear pronunciation. I only missed a bit some captions for the gear in the other video, u know, to pause and go check them in the market places. I like the style of your videos and you had me at the gameboy color flipped and the decal with your name that your mom made you put there...Man for such a nice touch of a scene, the good memory I infered it gives you, hell that it gives me, here´s a new subscriber. Cheers.
Great video!! I picked up a grip and the L and R buttons for the Miyoo mini I think they work great since i do try to play some street fighter games. 👍👍
Another interesting mod I think could be mentioned are people using rit dyemore to dye their miyoo mini shells. A bottle is relatively cheap (under $10) but the trade-off is more labor on your part. Maybe a potential future project for you? 😉
"If somebody accosts me on the street I can give them a sticker" that imagery is hilarious to me 😂 you're just walking down the street enjoying the day and a fan sees you and gets excited and says hi and you just scream in terror and start pelting them with stickers
For the Miyoo Mini Plus I ordered the Magnetron case. I didn't want a case that added much bulk, I didn't want for it to have space for anything other than the system itself. But it might take 1-2 more weeks before I get it. From what I've seen it seems to be the case that adds the least amount of bulk while still fully covering/enclosing the system. Just mentioned it in case anyone else wants kind of a minimalist case for it (and yes there's some soft material inside as well so the screen won't get scratched up). Also I have the black colour of the Plus and I love it. Not sure how anyone could hate it. Looks slick.
I have a kitted out RG35XX with the exact same 3D printed triggers just like yours. I actually like those triggers a lot and haven't hadn't any issues with them. Found myself a nice 3D printed front cover similar to yours on Etsy as well. I usually keep my 35XX on me in my satchel and I just noticed today that one of the clips broke because I probably bumped into something and didn't have a back cover on. Thankfully it was relatively easy to fix with some super glue 😅
the grip case is out for the plus now too. there was a v1 and v2 for the mini..one for the og triggers, one for the better buttons triggers. theres a few other plus cases out now too. its a shame about the break, because the rg35xx trigger ones are great. the 353V ones are the best imo.
Would be super interested to see what dock customizations there are for these devices. I would absolutely love to have a pocketable handheld that I can also play on my monitor with a 8bitdo controller.
Рік тому+2
The Miyoo Minis best mod is the speaker upgrade. Cheap and easy!
The Analogue pocket doesnt seem to be designed too well. The games stick out way too far, the back scuffs with carts and the usb port gets scratched if you use the dock. Even if youre very careful.
Huge added benefit of word “bug” is it’s a very easy early word for babies. I bet it’s one of the first 50 words most English-speaking babies learn to say “properly”
Great idea on the slim cover for the miyoo mini! I have the case that came with my rg35xx but its a thick boi and while it does a great job of protecting the rg when not in use it won't fit in my jeans pocket so I havent really been able to bring it with me much.
Great vid, Bob. Odd question but have you heard of anywhere that's still selling the gba cartridge extender so you can play boktai on the analogue pocket?
Ordered a White Miyoo Mini Plus from KeepRetro using your link, Hope I haven't been Scammed :D I've been sat in bed for the past few days going insane wishing I could play Mega Drive, Snes, Nes, GBA, GBC ect ect games on an all in one device, And after lots of research it came down to Miyoo Mini Plus or the RG35XX Although the RG35XX looks very nice / very clean where the ports line up with the shell, Everyone raves about how easy the Miyoo Mini Plus is. I briefly looked at the RG505 and the AYN Odin but they were much too far out of what I'd be happy to spend for a bed side emulator I may as well buy a Steam Deck so I can play my Steam Games as well as have emulators. So I settled for the Miyoo Mini Plus, I'm excited for it to arrive, I just got sick of playing brain dead crap on my android phone that aren't even proper games, I want to play proper real video games that people worked hard on ! Not money making shill crap.
I got the rg35xx better buttons and i thought i surely have smaller hands i wont break the back button holder notch, but i did. I thought i was better than Bob but i wasnt at least not in this. Glad he got them on without breaking them. Be very careful rg35xx owners.
Great stuff! Always been interested with 3D printed accessories but just worried about microscratches where it comes in contact with the device (given it is still hard plastic).
Ths was very interestting as I both own a 3d printer as wel as having just ordered an Anbernic 353V (the 35xx was out of stck everywhere I looked). Quick question though, just for the retro thing of it all. Do you think it would be possible to sideload Winamp onto it? not really for any practical reason except I think it would be cool with the atomic purple gameboy style and then running winamp to play music :D
I have added the "better" back buttons to my RG35XX, but they are actually terrible, at least for me. Because of the differently shaped buttins, the fingers have to press more downwards than towards the user, compared to the original button. And as there's nothing preventing the handheld from slipping downwards between for fingers when you press down, it simply does do so. There's no comfortable stance to push against this, besides angling the small fingers inwards and have them lay on the lower edge of the RG35XX, but that's very bothersome and annoying to do. Maybe adding some grip tape to the sides of the RG will help, so I will try this next ..
Thank you so much for shining a spotlight on our modding community! ☺️🙏
I’ve purchased your products before well before the video and I love each one of them. Thank you for doing what you do.
@@introdevious thank you so much 😃🥰
Just purchased the RG Gameboy stickers from your store, love the design and can't wait for it to arrive!
Just completed my THIRD order from your shop. You're the real deal, friend!!!
Looking forward to the battery door inserts for my Miyoo Mini from the April 1st shipment. ❤
Hey, Josh from PartTimeCAD here, thanks for the shoutout and reviewing some of my stuff! The retro handheld community is great and it's such a blast seeing what everyone comes up with, between custom firmware and mods and accessories.
I actually bought the Clipshield and now I have to wait two weeks, but I am sure it is worth the wait. Thanks!
Very sweet and considerate of you to carry those stickers . I might never accost you myself but it's nice to know that it'll be pleasant for anyone who does. 😊
waiting for this video to drop ever since your first miyoo mini video. you finally did it!!
As someone whose fingers are too long to comfortably sit on the R1 and L1 buttons, I remap the R2 and L2 to also be R1 and L1. The better buttons for the RG35XX makes hitting the R2 and L2 much easier and less uncomfortable. For anyone that does this I HIGHLY recommend them, they made this already amazing device even better for me.
Every time I searched for something about the analogue pocket, your videos came up, thank you for all your work!
I use that Waterfield case as well. I always insert my pocket upside down, much easier to pull out from the bottom.
Im on a role! All the wolf den handheld greatness, Now I want a 3d printer lol awesome video!
I’ve been Modding all my devices thanks to Bob.
I got the clickiess back into the modded L2 and R2 buttons on my miyoo mini by adding a bit of tape under them so that they fit more snug. Took a while to get it right but they feel great now.
This is the most bob ross episode lol you’re the bob ross of custom handhelds 🪦🪦🪦
They both look sick as hell dude
Your channel is so awesome and has done so much to teach me all the cool stuff I want to learn about the world of emulators. Thanks for being so helpful!
❤ thanks "BOBBY" u actually kept my interest kindofa miricle

PartTimeCAD makes fantastic stuff. I have the Miyoo Mini gripcase which is great, and the Clipshield for the RP3+. Great video!
Loved this! Always curious about different ways to customize my gear and have often times found searching for fun ( even just cosmetic ) changes can be very tiresome in the swaths of junk that is also out there.
I adore the innovation and creativity with these!
You aren’t joking about the transparent purple plastic being fragile… my rg35xx grew a crack across the front of the shell. All I did was unbox it and plug it in to charge 😂
Love the modding station you've got now. Absolutely awesome
Perfect timing I just purchased a miyoo mini + and am expecting it in about a week 👍
Thanks for doing this *by device* for easy reference for those of us looking to implement these great ideas!
Thanks to you, there’s about to be a ton of new stuff for the plus
I got the Sakura holographic analogue logo, and the carbon fiber camo front decal, plus the carbon fiber camo cartridge slot decal. I also got the bottom cover decal from Sakura, and the 3D printed cartridge cover I think also from Sakura. All of them are excellent.
I've got the official anbernic case for the 35xx and it's great. The fit is perfect.
I love that Game Boy sticker set for the Miyoo! That's awesome! Hitting my nostalgia nerve hard 💚💙
I got my 3d printer 2 months ago and my Miyoo Mini Plus 1 week ago. Needless to say I've been printing stuff for it 😅. PartTimeCAD case is my favorite so far.
Not me with my Leapster GS and a little silicon grip as the “accessory”:
I've had my prusa mini+ for 2 years now! Ran almost 24/7 with minimal issues. Enclosed it and it runs nylons with ease now. Great content and video dude!

I'm glad to see you're having fun with your 3D printer! Can't wait so see what you do next ;D
the word/s "clipshield" changed my life. My retroid pocket 2+ is about to be a lot more portable without me carrying it like a faberge egg.

Thanks for the shout-out once again 👍
Am I a 3D Printing nerd for noticing the warping on the parts? Try cleaning the print surface, adjusting Live Z and/or cooling of the parts.
Great video!! I picked up a grip and the L and R buttons for the Miyoo mini I think they work great since i do try to play some street fighter games. 👍👍
Love this style of video
New Zelda trailer. And Bob is like "emulators! 🙌"
Oh man I know! I was hoping him to be the casual "gamer" UA-camr that reacts to a trailer with an overly impressed face in the corner for a thumbnail.
Bwahaha he's a Mario boy! I wasn't expecting him to say anything, honestly xD True Bob vibes.
Another interesting mod I think could be mentioned are people using rit dyemore to dye their miyoo mini shells. A bottle is relatively cheap (under $10) but the trade-off is more labor on your part. Maybe a potential future project for you? 😉
I bought a portable WD hard drive case for my RG35 XX and it fits perfectly. Cost me less than $10 at Best Buy
I got the RP3+ grips. They are awesome. No more handcramps.
"If somebody accosts me on the street I can give them a sticker" that imagery is hilarious to me 😂 you're just walking down the street enjoying the day and a fan sees you and gets excited and says hi and you just scream in terror and start pelting them with stickers

I'm a sucker for accessories. I'll definitely hunt down some for the Analogue Pocket
Great Stuff, as always!
that rp3 case is actually genius
You have a beautiful day as well Bob 😁
LOVE THE MOD VIDEOS!!!
0:23 "mAkInG yOUR aNAlOguE pOCkeT" cracked me up good sir
noticed everyone is trying to mod their 3ds after your video but i mean then again it's perfect timing since the eShop closed
Best video in years
The Analogue pocket doesnt seem to be designed too well. The games stick out way too far, the back scuffs with carts and the usb port gets scratched if you use the dock. Even if youre very careful.

I love this so much, seriously
The rg35xx looks like a fun device to emulate on
Good Video! But people should just keep their factory foil on the pocket st the cartridge slot :D
The same guy who made the Miyoo Mini Gripcase also made a grip case for the Miyoo Mini +.
This is dope! I wonder if they have stuff for Anbernic devices, specifically for the RG351V
Really interesting! I liked the new shoulder buttons a lot. Would you be able to do content like this about the steam deck?
Great idea on the slim cover for the miyoo mini! I have the case that came with my rg35xx but its a thick boi and while it does a great job of protecting the rg when not in use it won't fit in my jeans pocket so I havent really been able to bring it with me much.
Was hoping for more for the mini plus, since I have that one. Fun video though
16:10 Bro , I have to break it to you : this is a purse 🤣
Surprised nothing w the ayn odin - that community seems to really enjoy showing off mods and customizations. Maybe in the future?
Surprised bob has never mentioned the RG353M.
Great vid, Bob. Odd question but have you heard of anywhere that's still selling the gba cartridge extender so you can play boktai on the analogue pocket?
I'm over here with the plastic film still on my analog pocket and store it in the box it came in.

Great video!
Have u checked out the 405m? Has hall effect sensors, metal body, 480p 4:3 display, and runs on android.
That's it, from now on you'll always be known as Bobby 👶
“I bobby mom” 😂 bobby lee.
I'm here for the 8 - 1 struggles
If you're in the UK, you might want to check out Retro Evo, he's a friend of mine and makes amazing skins for many of these retro handhelds.
I'm pretty sure I suggested using the foam for the rg35xx inside of that case a couple of months ago and you said you didn't have it anymore XD
The biggest issue with the Miyoo Mini that will show in a couple of years is the lack of spare batteries
There are all kinds of custom batteries in China. Aliexpress is the way to go.
I got the rg35xx better buttons and i thought i surely have smaller hands i wont break the back button holder notch, but i did. I thought i was better than Bob but i wasnt at least not in this. Glad he got them on without breaking them. Be very careful rg35xx owners.
Great stuff! Always been interested with 3D printed accessories but just worried about microscratches where it comes in contact with the device (given it is still hard plastic).
I cant believe the buttons for 35XX are $25! That's got to be a 1000% markup on costs minimum lol.
Nice
Nice video!
Is that Wii U menu music at the beginning
17 bucks is a lot for 2 stickers
Bob, did you know that you can use a case for a deck of cards on the miyoo mini?
My childhood gameboy color was stolen by a kid who used to cry every 9/11 because it was his birthday and nobody cared. I hope he still cries.
love yah Bob
Oh hey Bob!

miyoo mini having a square grip kinda makes it a long miyoo mini plus

Anyone know if there's a metal replacement body/shell for the Miyoo Mini?
