This may be a little bit too much to ask, but here I go:
Is the battery reading accurate? For the life of me I cannot get an accurate reading on Open Dingux. Also, is there any way to modify the brightness of the screen?
The battery support isn't calibrated, so it might show the battery is half-empty when it is in fact full.

You can modify the brightness if you log in via ssh/telnet, but there is no GUI for it at the moment. This is asked quite often, so I think it would be useful to add brightness control to the menu.

So I tested a few more games


Astro Boy runs fine
Gunstar Super Heroes runs fine
super Mario Advance 2 runs fine
Sonic Advance 2 runs fine, change the bios option! (Posting Edit)

and

Miss Pacman does not work (after third introscreen nothing happens)
bubble bobble does not work (screen black)
NES Super Mario Bros does not run (black screen)

Sonic Advance 2 does not run (black messed up introscreen)
That's a bit surprising to hear considering reGBA can run that game on the RS-97 & GCW0.
That game though does require that you change the "Boot from" setting to "GBA Bios".

Btw while i'm here, there were some games like Kingdom Hearts in GPSP 0.9.1 where you could bypass the FMV intro by loading/saving after it crashes during the intro. Such a feat doesn't work with reGBA though.
Perhaps that's something worth looking into ?

That was it! Now it runs fine!

I'm ready to buy as price is very attractive.

Is GBA emulation on this device good enough so I can finally retire/sell my GBA SP?

Emulation is sufficiently good (think gpSP/PSP era GBA emulation), but the device is not intended to be a replacement for your GBA SP. It's simply a conveniently small device you can use while traveling.

Yeah thanks Surkow, I'll hang onto my SP but I missed out on a GBA micro, so the retromini looks like the next best thing

Buy it, but it does not play all GBA games. But it is worth the money!

Will there ever be a way to use cheats on this? Maybe GBAATM would work?

Looks like R-Type III locks the handheld up when going ingame. The RS-90 is flashed with the latest fw. Is the opk from the fist post the latest build available?
