Does anyone here do their gaming on an SBC or hardware emulation machine? I’m considering trying to start an instance for these machines and am curious if there’s much desire

I do a lot of emulation and gaming currently on three portable devices:

  • Powkiddy X55 - 8, 16, and 32 bit, plus various ports like Doom, Duke Nukem, Fallout, TMNT: Shredder's Revenge, others.
  • 2DS XL - NDS and 3DS. Some GBA and 8/16 bit, but the Powkiddy took over a lot of that.
  • Samsung Tab S7 FE tablet - Dreamcast, PS2, Gamecube, and native Android games and ports.

I'm surprised how much mileage I get out of these devices, and how little I turn on my gaming PC these days.
