The New Leaf Journal ☛ Troubleshooting AmberELEC Install on Anbernic RG351V
The console’s form-factor recalls the design of a classic Game Boy, but has six additional buttons (two extra face buttons and four shoulder buttons) compared to its inspiration. It also has a joystick, although my initial impression leads me to conclude this would not be the ideal device for “3D” gaming. Its design evinces that it is intended to play retro games. While I do not recall selecting for color, I appreciate the translucent shell, which is similar to the Game Boy Pocket I received back in 1997.
Below, I will tell you the story of how and why I purchased the Anbernic RG351V and my adventure trying to install alternative firmware in the form of the free and open source AmberELEC on it. Do note that this article is only about the installation of AmberELEC and is not a review of the device, something I do not have time to undertake at the moment.
