RGames Propane Deluxe



The RGames Propane Deluxe is a console released in 12th June 2019 (alongside Ryzen v1.1) as the successor to the RGames Propane, and is a part of the Ryzen Masterpieces. The Ryzen Masterpieces hub (as well as the RGames Propane hubs) were moderated sometime in 2020.

Development
In 2018, chi_chi154_2, feeling impressed with the Ryzen (and a little limited with what the RGames Propane could do), proposed a Ryzen-based console named the Propane Zero (in reference to the Raspberry Pi Zero) to Kowan011. Using a Beta version of the Ryzen as a base, and a body constructed entirely from scratch, development began on the Propane Zero. In the middle of development, Kowan011 decided that the name should be changed to Propane Deluxe (as the Propane Zero wasn't any smaller than the original Propane). However, chi_chi154_2 started to work on a new update for the RGames Propane (which would become 1.1.1), most of the time leaving Kowan011 to develop the Propane Deluxe. This meant that the Propane Deluxe wouldn't be finished in time by the Ryzen Masterpieces launch.

Backwards Compatibility
The Propane Deluxe can play cartridges made for its predecessor, the RGames Propane (And the Propane M). The only exceptions to this are games that require the usage of Propane Modifications, or Promiibo figures.

Ryzen-Derived Features
The Propane Deluxe supports Propane Deluxe Memory Cards, Propane Deluxe Digital Applications, and the ability to read from Tappables. Even the Waterfall menus are designed to look like the Ryzen's. However, it doesn't have all features from the Ryzen, like Custom AI (PAMA returns from the RGames Propane, so they are not needed), and Firmware.
