I was thinking to buy a Retroid Picket 5, but i found out that Retroid doesn't sell battery replacement, and apparently there are not third party batteries on the market. What retro handheld should I get that has reparability as a feature?

(already own a SteamDeck) Edit to add: want to emulate N64, arcade and run some game ports. Also woukd like to run Rocknix with it probably.

I use my phone and a cheap controller that the phone slots in to. Has not failed me yet. Well, that's not true, it's powerful enough to emulate Wii games but the motion controls are hard to replicate without an actual Wii remote. That, and I want for a PS2 emulator, failing that, it's been great.
