The next Ayaneo mini PC looks like an NES, but it actually has more in common with a handheld

Another adorable Ayaneo mini PC is inbound, and while the first model looked like an old Apple 2 computer, this one pays homage to the NES. However, this new rig features a 4-inch touchscreen on the front and an AMD Ryzen APU that’s on par with some gaming handhelds out there, not to mention it’s got some serious cooling going on within. Simply put, while it’ll run Mega Man 2, I’ll probably end up playing the latest Steam games at 1080p on this thing.

Better known for its entries into the best gaming handheld race like the Ayaneo 2S, the portable PC maker first announced plans for a mini PC lineup last year. In fact, we’re already testing the retro-themed Mini PC AM01 for review, and it’s stacking up to be an exceptional mini rig that caters to running classics with low specs. Now that the dust has somewhat settled with that first release, the portable gaming pioneers are ready to launch the next one, and rather than providing much of the same, the NES-inspired model pulls big moves in the specs and price department.
