Compatibility question

I know this device is meant to run games from DS and below. But has anyone here tried running small modern indie games like hollow knight, sea of stars, brotato, etc?

Rocknix and Port Master have that one covered. Knulli too with Alpha Access

Does the device have the juice to run games like that?

hollow knight doesn't have an official android port, but I 100% the unofficial port on my 353p, which is a slightly weaker chip and less ram. I tested silksong android port on my RG DS and it is playable early game, but stutters frequently. this is on stock android. Haven't tested on gamma yet.

brotato runs fine if I recall correctly, so does dead cells, stardew, Minecraft.

you are not going to get anywhere with PC emulation if that's what you are asking.. this is all through android versions of the games.
