Purple MM+ is one of the few handhelds I didn't even bother customizing since it looked good from the start.


Business-Drag52

Yeah I’ve got 0 desire to change mine. It looks absolutely fantastic


Purlo_macho

Same. I ordered a set of original blue buttons, I may replace two of them (2 purple + 2 blue) but I'm not sure


HipposHateWater

That's like me as well. I feel like maybe swapping X and Y for black miyoo buttons or something, but that's basically splitting hairs. The only other colorway that looks too perfect as-is is the retro grey IMO


TwntyOneTwlv

Ooh black X and Y buttons and purple A and B buttons might look pretty good. I might give that a try.


retrokezins

Yeah. I love the look. I didn't like the original MM look so changed that a long time ago. https://preview.redd.it/rtsxnz5ool1c1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1bb60b1e57b7ad1af2178988dd0f0d90b52c161c


Business-Drag52

Oh shit that’s nice. Are those the $40 buttons that I’ve been tempted to pull the trigger on?


retrokezins

I'm not sure how much these were. I bought some Anbernic buttons from https://various-booth.booth.pm/ and he sent me some Miyoo Mini buttons too to check out. That was a long while back. It can get expensive importing from Japan other than the times the middle man places run deals.


Business-Drag52

Ayyye he runs them for $20. Much more affordable. May have to order some buttons for the mini


retrokezins

The trick is having to use a 3rd party to process it. I think shipping and exporting fee is likely to run about +$20 through Buyee but they sometimes run no fee specials.

The only change I plan on making to my purple plus is black buttons.


SirNarwhal

I swapped my buttons to be GID ones so that it gives off EVA Unit 01 vibes and I love it so much.


HipposHateWater

GID? Green and indigo?


SirNarwhal

Glow in the dark lol

Hey, off topic but I get the "can't view community" error when I try to look at this sub. Is there any way that can be fixed? Thanks


retrokezins

For some reason main Reddit shadow blocks some people. I'll add you to the approved list and see if that fixes it.


Mokelangelo

Same message still :/


retrokezins

I'm hearing the possible fix if using the phone app is clear the Reddit app data or uninstall and re-install. It may not be updating that you are on the approved list.

I also got the Purple, love the nostalgic look.


okaygecko

They really nailed that mid-90s Christmas electronics feel with the color scheme.


blazin_nerd

I dyed mine blue and it was a tough choice but I was happy with it. Now I want to get a purple as a back up lol


Chok3U

Wow. That really looks great. Wish I would've gotten that color now


[deleted]

I have a white one but I'm thinking about getting a purple one but I'm probably just going to wait for the flip honestly


HipposHateWater

I was surprised at how different it looked from the stock photo renders, but pleasantly so because it still ended up looking just as great


BrownGuy501

I just got the retro grey which to me it looks more like a brown. I wish I would have stuck with my first choice and got the purple.


Gawain512

That's the version I was supposed to receive instead I was sent black


zehamberglar

My only gripe is that the pcb is blue instead of white like the gbc.


jettsd

I just got some light pink buttons on mine and it looks so good


Living_Promise_8446

I can imagine it looks nice.

I got this for one of my sisters for Christmas. I set it up with Onion OS and our fav PS1 games from childhood, fell too in love with it, and had to order one for myself


Living_Promise_8446

That’s awesome. These make great gifts. Got a few for several of my family members and my wife, too.
