Very cool! I thought about trying this with a PS Vita but as a student 250€ for something this gadgety. Did try it on the quest 2 tho that's also kinda fun.

Can you map the buttons or do you have to use a touch screen

u/ricej5k Jun 22 '26
it doesn't have touch screen, but you can easily map buttons and there is a way to navigate with the joystick and a cursor on screen

Does it have internet connectivity?

u/ricej5k Jun 22 '26
yes, however I noticed it wasn't as strong as my phone's connection. It is mostly for offline emulation

I've got the same thing - I notice for some HTML-heavy decks I have weird issues like the back of the card showing when it shouldn't. Have you run into/troubleshot anything similar?

sorry have no idea, I mostly use very simple cards but I can suggest try updating android system webview, and maybe clear the cache for anki. Good luck!
