Mario 64 Is 30, Metroid Is 40, and I Need to Lie Down

👉2026 is the most absurd anniversary year in gaming history. Zelda, Metroid, Castlevania, and Dragon Quest all turn 40. Pokemon, Resident Evil, Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Crash Bandicoot, Tomb Raider, and Quake all turn 30. Twilight Princess, Okami, and Final Fantasy XII all turn 20. So I sat down and did the math on which retro handhelds you'd actually want to play through all of it on, and I came back with three picks: a $40 budget on-ramp, the obvious $300 answer, and a quasi-endgame device that gets you ready for whatever turns 20 next year. 📺 RELATED VIDEOS - Odin 3: https://youtu.be/XknTUdLpwHc - 477M: https://youtu.be/ouOUSR8Ai0A - R36T: https://youtu.be/fkFVXQ3zz_g 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 🛒Featured items from this video: 🛍️477M: https://rh-go.link/Anbernic-RG477M 🛍️Amazon 477M: https://rh-go.link/Anbernic-RG477M_Amzn 🛍️R36S: https://rh-go.link/R36S_AE 🛍️Odin 3: https://rh-go.link/AYN-Odin-3 🛍️476H: https://rh-go.link/RG476H 🛍️477V: https://rh-go.link/Anbernic-RG477V 💵 Save with our hand-picked gaming & handheld deals: https://handheld.deals 🔎Browse our curated weekly deals: https://rh-go.link/DILLS ✨Became a Member or Patron👇 🌐All Our Links: https://rh-go.link 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 🎵 Music by Jim Gray (https://ourghosts.bandcamp.com) and SoundStripe 🎞️Production & Editing by SonyWWDD30 (and Gary for Zu's vids...sometimes) ⚠️ Disclaimer This description contains affiliate links.
