My handheld journey started with a green Game Boy Color, and I have been in love with retro handhelds ever since. Years later I built a Raspberry Pi Game Boy Zero, and the handheld scene has kept impressing me from then on.

This site exists to help you pick the right handheld for the games you want to play, set it up, and find what is worth buying this week.

How this site works

Where the facts on this site come from

I decide what Pocket Retro Gamer covers and the rules every page follows, and every post is built from the sources it cites.

Specs and prices come from the maker's or the store's own listing, with the date they were checked. Hands-on impressions are credited to the outlets and creators who did the testing. Unless a post says otherwise, I have not tested the device myself.

If you spot a wrong price, spec or claim, tell me through the contact page and it will be corrected and dated on the page.
