So I got a Miyoo Mini Flip and a long airplane trip ahead. The device plays GB, GBA, SNES, NES, that kind of power. Please give me game recs! If there are ports of games it can play that are worth it, that's great too!!

basically every Pokemon romhack is based on the GBA games - FireRed or Emerald

there's a good process now where you just get the base rom (from vimm or wherever) and then patch the rom file on https://www.hackdex.app/ to turn it into the romhack. i just got into playing some of these on my phone recently and the quality is surprising. notable ones are Unbound, Elite Redux, Odyssey, R.O.W.E, Super Mariomon & Celia's Stupid Romhack

otherwise, GBA classics will definitely take up your time: Advance Wars, Golden Sun 1 & 2, Wario Land, Metroid

    I really really liked Pokemon Odyssey, been thinking of trying other rom hacks. I think I can figure out what Super Mariomon is supposed to be, mind giving the quick elevator pitch for the other ones you mentioned?

    uhhh honestly i've only played Unbound and Elite Redux, but my understanding of mariomon is it's a full map/story/mon conversion where you're mario and you capture mons that are just mario level enemies, with the story goal being to get all 8 'power stars' (badges) from battles across the mushroom kingdom before bowser does.

    like look at this dude lmao
