Does /v/ into chinese handhelds?
I never understood these when you can get a bluetooth controller/holder to run the same emulators on your phone
>>745962874>get a call>lose all progress
>>745962473I've tried repeatedly to get into chinkhelds but what I actually want is not available yet (a $100 PS2/Gamecube capable console that fits in my pocket)
>>745963653Rp5 is on sale a lot now$150 is the new $100 sadly
Too many of these fucking things have an obsession with making them as small as possible. I want a "GameBoy XL" that keeps the form factor of the original but doesn't have buttons for the baby hands that assembled it in the sweatshops.

>>745962926>get a callNo one ever calls me, anyway, most of these games simply pause when you leave them on standby.
>>745964098The RGXX line is a step in the right direction, but the screens and buttons could still be bigger. And as much as I love the GBA, I like my handhelds to be vertical.
>>745963784that's no handheld
imagine willingly plugging a chinkheld into your computer
>>745962473Playing on your TV isn't enough, you have to play shitty ass games wherever you go? Get a new hobby.
For me, it's the RG SP
>>745963653the retroid pocket nova just released, but it won't be $100 for a while; wishlist it
>>745962473no, I still have all my actual handhelds.
They're cheap, easy to mod, yeah. I like them.
>>745965343>$239
>>745962473No, I don't compensate for cheaping out on my phone by spending the same amount, or more, it would have cost to get one of these.
>>745962926What shitty phone emulators are you using? Retroarch merely pauses when you leave the app running in the background
I love mine.
>>745962874Most BT controllers fucking suck and you're sipping off the battery of your main communications device, it is in general a bad idea to use your phone over a dedicated handheld unless you can only bring the one deviceWhy would I buy a ~$35-$75 phone controller when I could buy a dedicated fucking handheld with a built in controller for that price and I get the added benefit of it not drawing off my phone's battery or having to put up with a wireless connection for something that's already clamped to my phone anyways
>>745962473They all look so fucking cheap.
>>745963653Look into portablized wiis unironically, or a flagship android phone
>at home>have perfectly good PC, consoles, etc>out of the house>have limited space in my pockets for a second wholeass deviceAnyway I just got this and am playing DS and PS1 games. Shit's super slim and it's easier to just jump into games on a device that I know can already play all the shit
