Playing GBA games on the new 3.5 firmware uses between 3.9 and 4.6 watts with screen at half brightness. I’ve never seen battery life like this before, previously it would use at least 6 watts.

I’ve yet to try other systems. Very impressive!

      As OP said… you just go to Desktop mode, open Mozilla/Chrome etc, then just Google “Tony Hawk ps2 download” and you’ll be 3 clicks away from the game:)
