NEW BLOG PAGE AND RIP RP4+
FEBUARY 3RD, 2025
Long time no see; I'm at work updating the site with a new visual style. It's slow going though, and there is still plenty of it that I want to change. But oh well here it is! There's a quite a bit to cover since my last post that's now lost to the ages. Except I won’t cover any of that, too tired. The
super sad news is that my lovely Retroid Pocket 4+ is
fucking dead. I pluged it into a charger for about 5~ mins and when I picked it up it flashed off and refused to turn on. I did all the troubleshooting, even manually disconnecting and connecting the battery but alas it was no use.
It's incredibly sad, especially since I was right in the middle of enjoying a game. I really loved that little device and I'm gutted that it (and the money I spent on it) is dead and gone. The silver lining here is that my husband (btw I got married in November) ordered me a Steam Deck as a birthday present. It's a different beast than the RP4+ but I am very excited. When my poor RP4 up and died I said I wouldn't be buying an Android gaming device again but maybe I said that too soon. I think having one would be a good compliment to the Steam Deck, I just really love the convenience of being able to throw the thing in my purse. Maybe sometime in the future, I'll pick up an Odin, or whatever the RP6 turns out to be (I know everyone is creaming themselves over the RP5 but I despise the glass front it has). But that for another time when I actually have money (hopefully).
RIP RP4+ it was fun playing Silent Hill at work with you
