+My biggest pass time outside of computing is retro game emulation. Most commonly in the form of dedicated emulation handhelds but also diving into console modding and Linux gaming.

+## Handheld Emulators
+
+P### owkiddy V90
+
+![Powkiddy V90](./V90.jpg)
+
+A clamshell device with a custom firmware that provides a basic but functional UI. 
+It's limited chipset only really allows for emulating upto the 16 bit era with a few Playstation 1 games just about playable. 
+The screen leaves a lot to be desired by modern standards but when I first got this handheld I absolutely loved it. 
+It's low price and clamshell design make it a great device to throw in a bag without much thought or worry. 
+The buttons are great and it made a great first handheld. 
+Powkiddy is believed to be working on a V2 which I am very excited to see. 
+
+
+### Miyoo Mini +
+
+![Miyoo Mini Plus](./MiyooMiniPlus.jpg)
+
+This is an absolutely amazing device that I still regularly play today. 
+The screen is a bright 480p display, the controls are soft but precise and while small it's surprisingly comfortable to hold (ignoring use of the triggers). 
+The real brilliance behind this device is the open source Onion OS. 
+Adding features such as game switcher, auto save and loading states, custom themes and even a custom boot logo, alongside a £50 price tag makes the Miyoo Mini + a very easy recommendation. 
+
+### Retroid Pocket 3+
+
+![Retroid Pocket 3+](./Retroid3.jpg)
+
+This is the console that convinced me to start spending a bit of money on these devices. 
+At £120 and promising the ability to emulate GameCube and PlayStation 2 I was sold. 
+At the time of buying this device I was very impressed with the 720p display and the ability to play the sixth generation consoles (with a lot of tweaks and hacks) but sadly it hasn't aged that well as there are now much better options. 
+The one way that is handheld has improved is the software. 
+As my first android device I wasn't a big fan of the need to occasionally use the touchscreen for system navigation and the need for a frontend app to tie all the emulators together neatly. 
+The options for frontend apps was very limited back then but now that ES-DE has launched on android it's a much nicer experience. 
+
+### Anbernic RG35XXSP
+
+![RG35XXSP](./RG35XXSP.jpg)
+
+A direct clone of the Gameboy advance SP, but with the power to emulate upto Dreamcast and Nintendo 64.
+This is unfortunately the only handheld I have ever sold.
+This is an incredibly popular device so I am certainly in the minority but I just couldn't get over the clicky buttons, early software and poor build quality.
+
+
+### Miyoo Mini V4
+
+![Miyoo Mini V4](./Miyoo Mini V4.jpg)
+
+The Miyoo mini is the first handheld I really wanted but due to pricing, high demand and stock shortages it took me a long time to get hold of it.
+It really does not disappoint. Technically its a worse version of the Miyoo mini +. 
+Its smaller and lacks WIFI but that small, super pocketable size gives it a huge amount of charm.
+If you are looking for something that can play upto Playstation 1 games, and you can take anywhere in your pocket then this is the device to get.
+
+## Console Modding
+
+### Gameboy
+![Gameboy Before](./Gameboy Before.jpg)
+
+I purchased this original Gameboy from Facebook Marketplace. 
+Like a lot of old plastic grey electronics it has horrible yellowing, so I tool this opportunity to clean it up.
+The Gameboy was stripped down, rubber and plastic components washed and yhe main board was cleaned.
+The shell was coated in Hydrogen Peroxide and left outside on a sunny day. 
+
+![Gameboy After](./Gameboy After.jpg)
+
+
+The console was then reassembled and a new screen lens applied to have it looking good as new.
+As much as I appreciate an original Gameboy, its not really something I would want to play in the modern day.
+The four AA batteries to power it, the contrast wheel and the fact that my nostalgia really starts at Gameboy color, means its more of a show piece for me.
