Congratulations Russ🎉 You have done a great job with your channel over the last few years and your content in particular is a great enrichment for us handheld fans. In addition your experience contributes greatly to bringing the topic of emulation closer to many beginners and at the same time to taking away the fear that this topic is not only something for professionals. For me as a retro fan your channel is an enrichment. Thanks! 🎉

I'm not surprised that it's hit 200k so fast. That's the sort of thing that happens when you have a hard-working, driven person with incredible audio and video who is simply performing at a level above the rest of the competition. Congrats, Russ!

Turntable suggestions... check out the Rega P1, Pro-Ject Debut or the stuff by U-Turn Audio. I think you'll be happy with either of those! I have owned the P1 and backed the u-turn on Kickstarter. Currently I am running a modified vintage AR table but The new models however will fit your needs and think you'll dig the look of them too. Keep up the great work! Big fan here.

Though I have to say that my steam deck with Batocera (dual boot using your video guide from a few weeks back- thanks for that!) Has meant that the Anbernic has been collecting dust for a few weeks. Here's to 500k subscribers and beyond :-)
