    I also have the RG35XX-SP, I have come to prefer the custom firmware MuOS which has an image for each Anbernic RGXX handheld. They have decent themes.

    Scrappy is a great MuOS app that gets all the box-art images, all you need is a free ScreenScraper account user/password.

    Depending on the size of your TF (microSD), there are rom sets on archive.org, like Tiny Best Set Go! & Done Set, I just downloaded the RetroAcheivements set from Archive which has a 128gb & 256gb option. RetroAcheivements is a cross-platform account you can get pop-up acheivements for most retro games when Wi-Fi is on.

    The Anbernic devices normally come with the Kioxia TF cards which aren’t as brittle as the no name ones, however the roms that Anbernic are sending pre-installed seem to have the biggest Nintendo games ommited. I just got my 4th Anbernic delivered yesterday. MuOS handles dual TF cards well, it’s common to have TF1 for just the OS & TF2 for the games/saves.

    I predominantly play RomHacks, Super MarioMon (GBA) by Alphard just came out the other day. Pokemon Unbound is great too.

      This is the sort of deep level tinkering I want to do, thanks for the guidance on this. Even though I have some ROMs myself, they’re probably nowhere near as well organised as anything like that on Archive. And I’d like to explore the other OSes as well, because the default is adequate but could easily be better
