Here's the office game's Linux build running 50fps on the Pocket Nova + ArmadaOS. This game and its awkward keyboard-first controls isn't the best fit for the handheld, but the 320x240 resolution is just perfect for the Nova's 4:3 screen.

Awesome, I'll be testing many of my games on ArmadaOS!

Thank you for allowing projects like this to appear :)

Just got my Pocket Nova in the mail. I'll write a blog post about this later, as I get ArmadaOS installed, and get to know this thing better. The size feels just right for my small hands, though the ergonomics are quite rough. The display also needed a better calibration profile.

couldn't get FF9's Memoria Mod to run in Winlator on my RP Nova. the vanilla game runs, but not the modified version.

does in ArmadaOS tho. Linux stays winning.

nah, fuck android. installing armadaOS

My desire to upgrade my AYN Odin 2 with ArmadaOS is failing.

Sí, antes tenías 2 formas, o meterle ArmadaOS, que implica tener otro sistema operativo en la microsd y es un coñazo, o tirar de programas de terceros, como Gamenative o similares para lanzar juegos. Si consiguen hacerlo funcionar así, será mucho más sencillo, y sin salirte de tu Android.

Absolutely loving ArmadaOS, FEX, and how we have tiny little pocketable steam decks these days :) Valve making SteamOS Open Source was a huge boon for gaming.

Got #Aniimo working on the #RetroidPocket6 with #ArmadaOS and -dx11 command flag. A whole week before the official Aniimo #Android release.

22ish fps, but come on, how cool is this?

I’ve got a Rocknix install on my Odin’s SD card. I might take a look at ArmadaOS as well. :3

trying out ArmadaOS on my ayn thor just running off microSD for now and god damn even just testing Persona 3 Reload performance is such a massive improvement compared to gamenative, wild. running at 720p in the school it's like, 30 frames at *worst* w/tons of faceless students, otherwise 40~50

If I had the money for it, I’d totally drop the money on a Ayn Odin 3 and install Armada (Steam OS) on it! The fact you can get a machine about 80% as powerful as a Steam Deck with the size of a PS Vita is astounding!

ArmadaOS looks interesting...

Pues tenemos actualización de ArmadaOS! Hasta un 50% menos de consumo en reposo en SM8550/SM8650/SM8750 y controles más rápidos en RP6 y Odin 3.

Además, estrena Armada Tools para actualizar el sistema o reparar Steam sin perder juegos ni partidas 😁

i use ArmadaOS instead of Android :3
basically think of it like SteamOS but for Emulation handhelds! (it works on the Ayn Odin 2 aswell iirc)
The reason for the Steam controller is no gyro.. *yet*

ArmadaOS on the ayn Thor, but this second OS is all running off a micro SD card w 128gb of storage on an AMD device meant for android

I will need to get the OS partitioned on the internal memory somehow, the experience is going to be hamstringed by SD card bitrates til then

This is so exciting for me specifically.
(Summary is that you can now install SteamOS on Android devices so I could feasibly buy a Vita-shaped handheld and play most PC games on it that aren't too demanding)
Yeah these are just Mini Steam Decks now…
Thank you Logitech for sponsoring and checkout the #SUPERSTRIKE and everybody say THANK YOU LOGITECH #GiftedbyLogitechG https://www.logitechg.com/en-us/shop/p/pro-x2-superstrike-mouse Steam is now fully functional on ARM, which means we get a pretty sweet port for Android handhelds. We're using ArmadaOS. It's insanely easy to install and turns your tiny little Android into a tiny little Steam Deck, and lord knows that could be tinier... 🛍Support the channel!

C'est déjà plus ou moins en train d'arriver cette année entre GameNative sous Android

Et depuis quelques semaines Steam complet embarqué dans Rocknix

Y'a aussi le projet ArmadaOS...

Comme je l'ai déjà prédit et répété :

2027 sera l'année des mini SteamDeck sous Arm.

C'est évident. De + en +.

Man, running ArmadaOS on my AYN Thor makes me wish Nintendo would make another clamshell, even if it was one screen. That form factor was just so useful, not that I dislike the switch’s

Aniimo on the Retroid Pocket 6 a week before the Android release! #ArmadaOS #SteamOS #Aniimo

Love you open source community!

This absolutely seems like noteworthy hardware, but as is usually the case with Valve is the software is even more interesting. By funding FEX Valve has enabled any Snapdragon handheld to play x86 games on ARM both through GameNative and SteamOS distros like ArmadaOS. And it works quite well!
