>retroid has revealed 0 (ZERO) new handhelds this year>anbernig has revealed 20 or soretroidbros this isn't fair...
>>11026597They've realistically done all they could by now. They're not going for cheap low end devices an they're not going for more expensive high end devices.What else could they possibly do in the mid-range?
>>11026597Flip 2 never everIt’s all up to PowCHADDY and their bizarre luck in making decent hinges
>>11026597Retroid has always been like this. Their main releases have 2 year gaps and inbetween they release an iteration like the flip. They don't spam handhelds like Anbernig or Powkiddy.
>>11026508this guy is washed up

got my first handheld, it's a TSP, what CFW should i get? heard tomato "os" comes with a new version of ppsspp that gives some games a huge performance boost
>>11026687I heard Tomato OS is a bit outdated by now. I think the best option right now is stock but with extra enhancements like the better DS/PSP and portmaster additions. Crossmix seems like it's going to be pretty good too but it's still early and not perfected yet.
>>11026687>got my first handheld, it's a TSP,got another one, boys
>>11026698Yes, the shilling is out of control.
>>11026603The first vertical with a high quality d-pad.
>>11026708Doesn't fit the retroid image. Widescreen for android. Anbernic already makes high quality d-pads.
>>11026708>verticalSpoken like someone who just collects handhelds. You probably unironically use the word "tinker"
>>11026714>Doesn't fit the retroid imageTheir first handheld was a vertical
>>11026714>Doesn't fit the retroid image.The retroid image is making quality chinkhelds that just work 9 out of 10 times.>Anbernic already makes high quality d-pads.You made one, Max. One.>>11026719I don't follow the schizo logic, explain.

>>11026782Anon that's just the pocket flip
>>11026775I don't mind people's weird filters, I think they usually don't look great, but they are certainly better than stretchfags.
>>11026805My grandfather's funeral was last year and I didn't play any.
>>11026808Didn't realize my 2S was a clamshell and could play most PS2 and GC games, I really haven't been taking advantage of its full features apparently.
Sold my RP2S todays and bought a phone to use with my Xbox Series controller instead.

Phonechads run this mother
>>11026540His face is always in videos.
>>11026974the controller is at least useful, but you'll soon realize that phone clip gaming is a meme. You're better off gaming on a tv and completing the gymastics routine you started to avoid tv gaming in the first place.

You think they'll be a better SP clone by Christmas? Like a rg35xxsp+ from ambernig or a competitor? Shopping for a friend and if I buy now I worry he'd be disappointed by a better option when I give it to him.
>>11027176They'll release the RG35XXSP 2024 with worse internals and less color choices
>>11027176Powkiddy's making the v180. Max might make an improved sp where the chip is in a different spot.
>>11027176Miyoo flip is supposed to come out in the next few months, it has an RK3566 so therell be all the CFW out of the box.It has analogs though.I'm willing to bet Game Console is going to make a shitty R36 Flip at this rate
>>11027187Why is it called the V180?Because you see it and then turn 180 degrees and walk away
>>11027176https://youtu.be/OXAvQ1weRdw?si=GvEjn6nJmvMmSVBQAdd to that list the RP Flip 2
Fellas, enough. Hanheld and phone gam in harmony.
>>11027197>Add to that list the RP Flip 2Literally not happening, the flip was a financial failure. They also couldn't make good hinges.
>>11027206Retroid actually learns from their mistakes bro, I'll hold my hopes
>>11027197I hope Miyoo makes the Flip at least 1.25'' wider so that the Analogs won't be too jumbled nearby each other.
>>11027176Not looking like it, maybe Miyoo. Chinkhelds tend to suffer hardware revisions along the way though, for better or for worse, so by then the SP might be a different thing.Personally, I'd gift a pre-configured Android to someone I cared about, ARM Linux is too high maintenance.>>11027195Fuck off election year bots.

Pocket 2 Flip when?
>>11026786>Analog nubsthe pocket its NOT for noobs how dare u
>>11027201>peace and love maaaaanu might wanna turn off the tv kekthe mindrot is real >>11027258everything was now raycis>>11026775>lookinGUD.gif
>>11027201Phonefags are disgusting Neanderthals who probably don't even emulate games, because if they did they wouldn't be recommending mobile phones over dedicated gaming devices like the swine that they are!
>>11027223Bro, even if they did do that look at how low on the device those things are. There is no way to make comfortable-to-use sticks on an SP-style clamshell.
what OS do I use for the SP? Because they all seem to have their own pros and cons
>>11027726I'm using the modded stock OS but the moment knulli supports the lid sensor I'm going to use it right away
>>11027619>why would i use a literal better device thats better in every single way that i already own?!??shill
>>11027578No one mentioned your nub of a clitty, gay.
>>11026805Ether way the wifi will suck.
>>11027619>dedicated gaming deviceszhang, most of these devices are e-waste and barely function to the point they need cfw to work properly
>>11027726muOS waiting roomThe anbernic OS isn't even that bad if you have the standard competency of a /vr/ autist but its still too shitty to gift to somebody
>>11028069>devices with removable battery, replaceable screens, buttons, speakers, etc you can buy online and custom firmware developed by a community are e-wastepoodroid/iOSlop devices aren't e-waste because uhhhhhh..... STOP ASKING QUESTIONS CHUDZ-ZHANG, YOU'RE CHIWANESE!!!!
>>11027784Is not better.Flagship phones get really hot and the battery dies fast when you try to play even the most basic games on them.They're also more expensive and I'm not using my main phone for falling because I need it for other shit that I'm constantly doing (unlike you troons I have a job)
>>11026489Can someone with an RG53XXSP tell me if it can handle basic psp games like project diva?
Miyoo Mini Plus or Anbernic RG35XX Plus (or H)? Both are more or less the same price on aliexpress.
>>1102840935xxplus feels better than the miyoo because it's a little longer. I like the shoulder buttons better too
>>11028106they're e-waste too, but why create more of if when you need a phone anyway>removable battery, replaceable screens, buttons, speakers, etc you can buy onlinealso true about phones
>>11028428its all the same crap what are you even arguing about
>>11028409I think the only downside of the RG35XX+ is the lack of good firmware for now.
>>11028315>i have a jobfound the pocket poster
how do i login to retroachivements in ppsspp standalone on a linux chinkheld? there's no on screen keyboard
>>11028409Onion OS is god tier and carries the Miyoo MiniRG35XX feels better in your hands but lacks the similar firmware optionsIf you want a device that you can pull out that's retard proof get the Miyoo mini. If you wanna tinker a bit and fix the various small stuff that ambernic does not touch to make the handheld better, get that instead.
ordered another R36S
>>11028430a phone is something that you practically need to own if you want to function in a modern society, a chinkheld is not.it's cheaper to just buy a controller attachment for your phone, it wastes less resources as well. there's no reason to duplicate the functions of the SoC, display, speakers, etc. inside the controller, making it a chinkheld.
>>11028589>a phone is something that you practically need to own if you want to function in a modern societygood pointnow what if there was a way for me to play games in an emulator without draining the battery of my phone? maybe some kind of dedicated device?
>>11028596>maybe some kind of dedicated device?Sounds like a waste of money.
>>11028639so which one is it? are phones essential to function in a modern society or is $50 to not have to worry about draining your phone battery a waste of money?
>>11028642I don't see how those contradict each other, zhang. You don't have to waste an extra 50$ on a shitty “dedicated device” that can only play up to gba games, you can charge your phone and if you are that worried about your battery there are portable batteries for less than $50.
>>11028654>you can charge your phonei can charge my phone when i'm outside without a dedicated device like a powerbank (or a handheld, either using it to charge my phone or saving my phone's battery by playing on it)? where do you live where that's possible?>You don't have to waste an extra 50$ on a shitty “dedicated device” that can only play up to gba games$50 devices do up to psp and light dreamcast games with a battery that lasts 6/8 hours depending on screen brightness and the game you're playing>there are portable batteries for less than $50already addressed
>>11028589>"anon you spent 5hrs in front of your computer, that's bad for you">not even that much time passes and now every normalfag is glued to a screen 24/7 and basically can't function in society without itI feel so vindicated. Not having a phone is bliss.
>>11028563Looks like it's $20 with coins and a $1 coupon from the summer shake event. Too bad I don't need another lol
why, in the year 1800+224, does retroarch not have an option to show your battery percentage on top of the game as an overlay?
>6/18/2024 11:21:52 AM - Object is on delivery routeIT'S FUCKING HAPPENING /VR/OS
>>11028596you just want a powerbank in that case>but muh battery still wears out!use the money from the difference in the price of the chinkheld and the powerbank to pay someone to replace it a few years down the line or do you by yourselfa "dedicated gaming device" that runs the same games your phone can run just as well is a pointless and wasteful product category.
>>11028828>batterylets, when will they learn?this is why
>>11028943>laughs in Odin 2 Must really suck having to think about the battery. Been playing Chrono Trigger at work for the last 3 hours and it seems I'm only down to 92%
>>11028679>$50 devices do up to psp and light dreamcast games with a battery that lasts 6/8 hours depending on screen brightness and the game you're playingwith input devices so awful that there is no point playing. R36s is about the only handheld that matches your description and its face buttons form one continuous piece joined underneath loloh and it's a vertislop with sticks below haha
>>11028949>Vertislop>Rockshit>No real sleepHe meant the shartui dumbo which is 50 atm and it doesnt have that problem. Its still shartui AND its rounded
>order rg c*be 10 days ago>still hasn't left chinathis is gay. tbqh this is probably what I deserve for buying that piece of shit tho.
>>11028981Max legit only made it out of spite because he hates the zpg guy.
>>11028981At least you probably got it on sale, it and the RG556 are already discounted.
>>11028880what's comin in today anon
my 8 year old niece said she didn't have a problem with the rg35xxsp's buttons being hard to press
>>11028998Ok?
>Ok?
>>11029006I think he's trying to say his niece might be tougher than russ.
>>11028998I'm never going to get over how he brought in a scale to weigh button pressure just because of this
>>11028978the controls on that one are almost as bad, tiny sticks with tiny travel that can't click, stacked shoulder buttons with too little space in-between, shitty d-padit's impossible to build an entire handheld with good input devices and sell it for $50 when decent controllers cost that much on their own
>>11029047The sticks dont click bcuz it can't play shit that needs em except ape escape. The travel still sucks dick though. Inline is a memeThe dpad is legit good. Not any worse than the x2'sMagicx will be under 50 and use the same hall sticks from the bsp controllers all with a good dpad. Problem is, it's rockchip.
>>11029079Meant to say recessed is a meme.
>>11029047>tiny sticks with tiny travel that can't clickokay but sticks on everything below a t310 don't matter anyways. regardless they're still usable even if they suck and the shitch sticks with click are barely any better>stacked shoulder buttons with too little space in-betweenstill better than inline vertislop shoulder buttons and the curved top make then comfy to use>shitty d-padit's good wtf are you talking about. completely annihilates the d-pad on the r36s, as do the face buttons.
>>11029047Even the TSP's tiny stacked triggers are better than inline just for the fact that it gives the L and R room to fucking breathe and lets you rest your whole finger comfortably on them. And the triggers themselves aren't even that bad despite being tiny, only the first batch had the shitty feeling ones. They feel decent now.
>>11029047great to see your mental illness has progressedlooking forward to what you come with next
Smart pro owners, is unbound fullspeed using the in-game medium sound quality?

>>11029263>according to theaccording to the package tracker*
>>11026489I got a Famicom clone handheld from my GF and it's fun, the battery life's not good at all and the cable to connect it to the TV doesn't work, but it has a 2nd controller that, thankfully, works well, and as someone who grew up with a Famicom, a clone console to be more exact, booting this up to see that it has "400 in 1" that are just a few of the same ROMs repeated... warmed my heart.She told me she was upset because she found a video on TikTok for a better handheld after she had already bought this one, it was a Miyoo Mini Plus video, I told her it was fine, and it really is.I mean, being able to load up ROMs is nice, but I do that on my smartphone already, with a good telescopic controller, but this? It's something my setup can't replicate... a comfortable nostalgia.
>>11026489I'm so autistic that I can't make my mind up on what my first retro portable should be, and I've already missed some of the better prices during this AliExpress sale. I'm mostly just looking at the devices below $60, the choices are overwhelming. I love the DMG Game Boy aesthetic of the Miyoo Mini Plus and RG35XX Plus, and I am primarily interested in GB-GBA emulation for these kind of devices. The Miyoo looks too damn small, but apparently has the best software. The RG35XX Plus looks more comfortable and with better performance, but the software isn't as good. RG35XXH and TSP have analog sticks if I did decide to dabble with N64/Dreamcast and even PC streaming, but I do prefer the vertical shape of the Miyoo/RG35 Plus.So this is how people fall down the rabbit hole of owning like 20 of these fucking things? Fuck me, I can't even decide on one.
>>11029372If you're deadset on vertical but might dabble in DC and streaming, 405v is the only real option imo. People were saying you can get one for sub-$100 in the aliexpress sale atm.
>>11029372I hear/read good things about the R36s if you'd like a vertical shape, but I don't own one so I'm not really in a position where I can confirm if it can do what you need it to do or if it's Chinese slop, more than the other ones at the very least.It does look sleek though.
>>11029372>I am primarily interested in GB-GBA emulation for these kind of devicesIt's a little out of budget but for a few dollars more you can get a RGB20SX, see >>11026543or a RG35XXSP which is superb for GBA and of course it can do GB games as well
>>11029405R36S is shit except for the screen. The thing is, it's $20 for an RK3326 with analogs which is amazing. It has all the great CFW from when the handheld revolution started with the ORDROID-GO Advance.
>>11029405that form function really sucks.
>>11029372>N64Will be bad on all cheap devices>StreamingUnlikely to do well on cheap devices>MM+I'd stay away just because of how weak it is. Maybe if it was $25 or something just for the aesthetic.If you want a cheap vertislop just for GB/GBC/GBA, the RG35XX Plus is probably one of the better ones even if the CFW selection isn't great right now.
>>11029372get the R36Sit's cheap enough to risk scams/factory defects/not liking itbest case you're fine with it, worst case you use it as a basis of comparison to determine your next informed, totally final purchase

has the trimui software gotten better yet? on sale for 50 bucks
>>11029483This looks like it would be a fantastic machine that forces you to play Pokémon Crystal

>>11029571GBA was fine on Cross 1.0.0 but the newest update fucked something up.
>>11029483WAOW so pocketable!!!!
>>11028880>>11029263it's heregonna dump all my roms into the chinkcard, test tomatoOS/portmaster on the tsp and see if the sf2000 works well as a game stick on my tvif i get the v90 tomorrow i'll coom my pants, o can't wait to play pokemon on it, i hate carrying my 3ds's outside, specially the XL since it fits really tight in most of my pants
I got an RP4P, not lying when i say it's probably one of the best handhelds i've ever used
>>11029372I'm in the exact position you're in. I'm waiting until ambershit fixes the SP and gets better colors. That's really endgame imo.
>>11029372get the R36S (vertical) or the TSP (horizontal) for your first 'held, trust me brah
>>11029589Cizia is looking into the GBA issue in 1.1.0
>>11029754update: the sf2000 does not work as a game stick on my tv, idk what's wrong but it doesn't work when i plug the av cable inmaybe it'll work with the multicore cfw instead, who knows
holy fuck i forgot how slow sd cards arei hope this chink card (its actually sandisk but you know) doesnt die on me, transfering these files again would be a nightmare
are you plugging the chinkheld in and transferring through that? i get stable 100mbps transfers on my sd card using a card reader.
>>11030010no im using a cheap micro sd -> usb adapter i got on alithis shit is probably bottle necking my card idk
>>11030012 (me)oh now im getting good speeds, weirdi think it was slow before because i was transfering a bunch of small files so it was going slower because of that
>>11029764What are you, me? I got mine yesterday. I spent most of my time setting it up. Today I started playing games on it and was surprised how well it'd been so far. I didn't expect great results with Switch, but it's been good so far at simple things like Advance Wars and indies. I'm going to try Super Mario Rpg tonight
>>11029764What about the R2D2
I tried out PS1 eboots on my PSP, and is it just me, or do these run way smoother here than they do on my Anbernig? I know PSP is running it natively and not emulating it, and that native games run more efficiently than emulation, but I thought that the 35XX+ chip had enough raw power to overcome it. The scaling looks good too; I thought full-screen would look like ass due to the lack of integer scaling, but the filter they use to smooth it out is subtle enough that the text is still legible. And they even have fully mappable inputs and the game manuals! If it weren’t for the complete lack of storage, I’d play all my PS1 games on this thing instead.
>I thought that the 35XX+ chip had enough raw power to overcome itan i9 14900ks with 256gb of ram, a pcie gen 5 nvme drive and 4090 doesn't do perfect ps1 emulation
>>11030175How on earth can something be playable on a $30 device, but not perfect on a $3000 device?
>>11030161I had the same feeling playing games on my Vita vs my emulation handhelds. No idea what that's about.
>>11030161>I know PSP is running it natively and not emulating it, and that native games run more efficiently than emulationSounds like you answered your own question
Most comfortable device for a 9hr flight?
>>11030306Odin 2 is one of the only devices that will probably actually last you that whole flight.
>>11030306r36s
>>11030308Nah a KTR1 also has pretty mental battery life. RP4P and RG556 can also get 15 hours on PS1 going off Phawx' videos. I know from personal experience the RP3+ and X28 can also clear 10 hours on less demanding stuff.
yall niggas have choice paralysis if there was only one handheld in the world you would be happliy playing warios woods rn and would have never even heard the words microswitch or light bleed
>>11030290But even my Steam Deck doesn’t run the game that good, and that thing can play semi-modern AAA games. That has to be like, what, a 10% efficiency rate in terms of performance? How can it be that bad when everyone claims that PS1 is one of the more established emulation scenes?
>>11030324i am not a nigger how dare you. but yes this is why I aim for as few handhelds as possible.
>>11030328>handheldsYou can't have 1? You need multiple?
>>11030324Stop having standards guys, you're scaring poor Zhou.
>>11030327steam deck can run like 4 ps1 games simultaneously and all of them would be pixel perfect with flawless frame pacing, it's either comfy placebo or you're attracted to the bad screen, both of which are totally valid
>>11028939Then why are you in this thread? Do you think you'll change any of our minds with your condescending paragraphs? Do you go to libraries and bitch that they could just use an ebook or a go-kart track and say they could just drive a car? Everything is "waste" when you look at it from a certain angle. 4chan is a waste since its mostly made up of dorks like you complaining about stuff people like.
>>11030161PS1 on PSP is emulation actually. Also, from memory it has some compatibility issues and I remember a lot of visual bugs even playing a game like FF7, granted this was before PSP EOL so there were still updates coming.
I know nothings great yet but what OS is everybody using on the rg35xx plus right now?
>>11030387The CPU side is actually running it natively, the GPU side is emulated.
Assalamu alaikum, does anyone know of a green handheld? I know anal log profit and retard pumpkin s have green versions, but do you know of any others? Need something to match my frog collection.
>>11030392I mean they're different CPUs so saying that the CPU runs everything natively is just incorrect, there is still some sort of an emulation layer that handles the difference
Miyoo A30 shills on suicide watch
>>11030409It's not but I can't be assed to explain right now.
>>1103041210 secs in google> Does it mean PS1 code run natively? No, not really. Code analyzer is needed to hijack execution of things that can't be done natively. That include cycle counting, hardware registers handling, memory remapping, GTE emulation, DMA emulation, MDEC emulation, I/O accesses. Beside that anything that happen outside of r3000 need to be emulated too, like GPU, SPU, etc. Literally as I said. Common sense prevails.
>>11030413NTA, but that’s still more accurate than running it on a chinkheld in Duckstation, right?
>>11030390Tried stock mod, it's okay but mediocre, then muOS and while I could feel some performance gains it's still raw and has this annoying behavior of wiping my wifi credentials to prevent a bug. Tempted to go Knulli for ES-DE even at a performance and boot time toll.>>11030406>>11030410Are there even any? They were basically giving A30s away last sale and all we heard about it was one guy frustrated he couldn't get a 28xx as cheap.Also, no way that isn't a scam, enjoy your brick game.t.smug 0 feedback Shop1103436512 Store SP owner
>>11030416Sony can emulate their shit better than random dudes on the internet? Probably.
>>11030416Nah, POPS is garbage.
>>11030416Probably. Official emulators are generally more accurate than 3rd party ones. But to say that everything runs perfectly and there are no compatibility issues is just plain incorrect, going by both my personal experience and common sense.
>>11030409this is an oversimplification, but the psp has a r4000-based cpu that also runs r3000-based code natively, and the ps1 cpu is r3000-based.
I like my V90, but god damn, it really sucks for almost everything that it can actually do, especially with the screen tearing. Not to mention that horrific speaker, famiclones have better speakers than this thing does.

>>11030434Honestly, the SF-2000 does literally everything the V90 does, better, in a far better form-factor, for significantly less money. Even as a GBA SP slut like myself, the SF-2000 mogs the V90 all day every day any day.

>>11030161>I know PSP is running it natively and not emulating itpops is emulator, you dumb shit. only fat ps2 had real ps1 components in it. all other sony consoles had emulators in them
>>11030675>only fat ps2 had real ps1 components in itAnd the original fat PS3 did not?
>>11030726No, that was pure software emulation from the beginning. PS3 is fast enough for it. As a matter of fact, the last few revisions of PS2 Slim (starting sometime after SCPH-70000, can't remember which exact one it was) don't have the PS1 CPU inside either. I think those came out after Fat PS3 though.

I feel bad for all the stores that bought so many A30s. I wouldn't even buy it for $20.Fucked screen, slow and ancient chip, 2 hour battery life, faceplate falls off. Miyoo went real scummy to get rid of old parts.

>>11026489>avoid the RG NanoI bought that lil nigga and put it in a key fob zip case and hooked it to my keys, now I'm playing vidya more often. It's all GBC, Game Gear and NGPC turn based games because of screen size and general lack of dexterity on that system but this lil nigga has actually brought me out of my little depression and I have the motivation to play games again, no matter how small. Very limited use case, I agree, but it's very well built.
retroarch shows my battery percentage in the top right of the menu, but why can't i have it display that percentage over a game through an overlay?i can't be the only one who wants this feature
I think every youtube reviewer should post their glove size
>>11031595Doesn't the trimui have a led battery indicator?
>>11031675you can configure it to show battery status on the analog led, but then you'd have to have the led oni'd rather have it shown on top of the game, specially since most games on this device will have either black bars or an overlay like picrel
>>11031675Yes, it has an add on that makes the LEDs flash red when you're on low battery. It's really convenient.
>>11031515>ktr1 That one absolutely has a fan, you can see the exhaust grille on the renders. Looking for a purely fanless design.

What device balances pocket-ability and ergonomics? I thought it would be the SP but it's way too fat to fit in my pockets with all of my other stuff. The mini devices cramp my hands but fit in my pockets fine.
>>11029506Not by much honestly, and the custom firmware scene is in shambles. I think it missed its chance to make an impression.
>>11029372The vertical shape is “pocketable” but not very ergonomic and I doubt you will go out with a handheld. Hate to be that shill but the trimui smart pro is your best choice when it comes to cheap and sensible handhelds, specially for gba. And now you say you won’t but eventually you’ll dive into psp and ds and other stuff and you will miss not having a better screen for them.
This thing is a piece of crap, I charged it once and it was fine and then after the second time it doesn’t turn on, literally had it 1 day wtf

>>11032074bury it before it catches fire
>>11031716It doesn't have a fan, it just has a passive cooling vent like the RP3.
Is there a handheld emulator that actually feels good to use and play on a level similar to like a PS Vita? The Retroid Pocket is horrid.
>>11032076>>11032079Is this common? Only other Chinese handheld I’ve got is the miyoo and that one seems way better built
Which one of these is best for something like last blade 2 or capcom vs snk? Portability and excellent dpad
>>11032074werks on my machine. I use amazon exactly for this reason because within 30 days you will easily notice the chinese shortcuts and flaws come to light.
>>11032074Does it charge at all? Does it turn on plugged in without the battery? If not for both, you MIGHT need to flash the stock fw on an sd card. The 35xx series can't charge if the os sd card is corrupted or isn't there.
>>11032084That round thing looks like a mini-fan to me.
>>11032117Nil originally had plans to sell a fan for overclocking but it never happened.
>>11032030rg35xxh
>>11032112The og sd card is still there, the charge light comes on when plugged in but it won’t turn on no matter how long it stays plugged in. Not sure how I’d flash it when it won’t turn on at all
>>11032074I have been using mine daily and the only issue so far I had is that for some reason after have it fully charged , it displayed 0% of battery with the red led on to which I just let it play CRT overnight to fully discharge it, I charged it again on the next morning and it worked fine again displaying the correct battery percent
>>11032170Plug the card with the os into an adapter. If it's fine on your pc, insert the card again and press the reset button and then the power button.
>>11032261nothing seems to happen, I checked the sd on my pc and it looks fine. when i put it back in the sp and press reset and power nothing happens. Tried pressing them and tried pressing and holding for several seconds and nothing
>>11032356Can you take the battery out? If you get the charging light, nothing should be wrong with the os itself.
>>11032363I get the charging light for like 10 ish seconds when i first plug it in, and then it goes out
>>11032369Only option is to disconnect the battery, remove os sd card which I think is in the top slot, reconnect it, put sd card back in, while plugged in (Try connecting the official wire to a laptop or something instead), reset button and power. This shit happens with alot of the 35xx devices for some reason. They're called anbernig for a reason.

>>11032030The anbershit SP is still smaller than my wallet
Having trouble deciding between a rg35xx + or sp. I set up a plus for someone and it felt really comfortable and solid. Hows the sp feel?
>>11032074dumb fucker probably used some usb c or fast charging bullshit
>>11030161I just received my RG35XX+, and I see it comes with 'threaded video' enabled which makes video not look as smooth as it should, and disabling it make things worse. It's probably an optimization problem, tomorrow I'll update to the stock mod, and see if things are any better.
>>11032751My SP has the same cpu and it can disable threaded video fine. The only issue is that you cannot use the framerate speedup which is a similiar issue I had on the 351p. Not sure if its just a linux thing at this point
>>11032078He also might be a vampire.
>>11032729The SP is really comfortable, you can actually use the shoulder buttons on a proper way
>>11032773>My SP has the same cpu and it can disable threaded video fine.Disabling it doesn't make the video any smoother for me, plus, it makes the audio stutter a bit.

>>11032872Oh you asked about dpads, I don't know how the rg35xx+ feels but the SP dpad is clicky and loud, very responsive tho

>>11032783This may or may not be related to an issue where some retroarch cores using the allwinner SoC need a shader enabled to prevent wierd framepacing
>>11032992Isn't that the cube? the one that plays gamecube?

How's the Retroid Pocket 2S? Price seems decent for the specs at first glance. Primarily interested in playing dedicated handheld stuff. Though, as I understand, PSP games are best played on a 544p display (for the 2x scaling).
>>11033187>I can't play retro games without retroachievements anymore.You could never play retro games to begin with and are a self-admitted zoomer who didn't play his first video game until after 2005 due to your age. You need the little notifications to encourage you to enjoy the media you're choosing to consume. Even in 2005 it was well-known that achievements literally only existed as a means for publishers to gauge what content customers are consuming so that sequels can waste less resources on content people don't play, ie; single player campaigns in Call of Duty titles. You're now admitting that you cannot "enjoy" playing video games unless you're getting the simulation of being part of that corporate process. Holy fuck. What is a person supposed to say to you when you're self-admittingly like this? Even suggesting a break won't remedy how fucking retarded you are.
>>11033285Fun fact: All those video games that had achievements for starting the game that idiots meme'd on twenty years ago were literally there just to see how many copies of a game that were purchased were actually being played. I think Bamco did it first with Soul Calibur 4.
>There are ZERO achievements for difficult self-imposed challenges or restrictions that players wouldn't otherwise doThis seems like an untapped market
>>11030161Sauce on game? I think you just unearthed a caved memory from me
>>11033296How the fuck would you "market" it?Anyone wanting to do a self-imposed challenge would have to already to the challenge in order to make it an achievement. Anyone wanting to do another person's self-imposed challenge would already be doing it without the fucking ding at the end notifying them that they did it as they'd already be invested enough into the challenge to know whether they did it or not.What are you even talking about? What are you even asking for? Holy fucking shit, you attention-deficit zoomers are so fucking stupid.
>>11033285>>11033304Touch grass. Go outside. I suggest you take that break you mentioned. Have a breather.
>>11030324>yallKindly leave, negro
>>11033290This, most people nowadays completely forget that cheevos were initially designed for data mining (see how many people reach certain parts of the game), and, in many cases are still used like that.
>>11033304>How the fuck would you "market" it?By doing it, since apparently nobody has done it outside of gauging interest as you claimed, and it would be a fun extra and draw attention to the game since it would be unique.>Anyone wanting to do a self-imposed challenge would have to already to the challenge in order to make it an achievement.Yes, developers typically make sure what they're asking of players is possible.>another person's self-imposed challengeIn this case, and what I was referring to, would be a challenge imposed by the game makers.By "self imposed," I meant that you'd have to go out of your way to do it yourself as it's not required, and doing it doesn't change anything except for having the achievement.>What are you even talking about?Achievements for video games.>What are you even asking for?I wasn't asking for anything.>Game developers have NEVER made any achievements to give a mark of distinction showing that one has completed a difficult challenge.>Achievements are ONLY for checking what parts of the game players play.
>>11033271Really good, but while it has enough juice for all PSP and a great d-pad and sticks, obviously playing it 4:3 won't be a great time.>>11033296It's not about the challenge or spreading the game's culture, just mindlessly filling out lists, getting snarky reddit titled jpegs and amounting "score".>>11033196I mean, it is a game for babies, sequence breaking and rolling Mew glitch is as much of a challenge as you can make it.
>>11033302NTA but Future Cop L.A.P.D for PS1. Awesome game.
Remember that weird Sugar Cube handheld? They have a working production unit with an actual D-pad now. You have to skip to around the 5:35 and the 8-8:07 mark to see how the rotation works for enlarging whats on screen. Seems to be novel, if a very expensive handheld. Hard to see many people flocking to this when the Powkiddy RGB30 and 20SX are cheaper options with their own 1:1 screens. This just seems tailored to those who want expensive vertislops like the Ayaneo DMGhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-O70KGEdnIM
https://he.aliexpress.com/item/1005006693012472.htmlSo apparently this is slightly better than the R36S.Should I get one? I already have a R36S but is cheap now.
>>11033385It has touch screen, but I don’t see the point of the rotation.
>>11033429It is more powerful (but not by far) and maybe the buttons feel better. I don’t think it’s worth the upgrade.
>>11033429what ancient language is that?

>>11033518Few months.
>>11033325>Really good, but while it has enough juice for all PSP and a great d-pad and sticks, obviously playing it 4:3 won't be a great time. Thanks for the confirmation. Seems like the only device with relatively decent specs and a 544p display is that ambernig 505, which got panned by retrododo for having meh build quality and dodgy ergos.
>>11033519It’s only got a couple months life left in it then. Cherish the remaining time you have with it.
>>11033545I am waiting for a refresh of that and if the refresh is shit I will bite the bullet and buy an Odin mini 2. I am waiting for a refresh because it has been out a while not because of reviews.
>>11033031Weird. Can it be any shader?
is it normal for the TSP to do a loud pop (it's probably the speakers turning back on, idk) when you turn it on from sleep mode?it doesn't bother me but i want to confirm this is normal and not me getting lottery'd
No mention of the 3326 anywhere so hard to tell if this is acutally by gameconsole or another sdizzer situation, but it seems to be a clone of the rg350.
>>11033712>rg350 clone with fixed dpad placementwtf based?
>>11033296That’s not true.
>>11032642i'd like to interject for a moment what you're referring to as the h700 family is in fact the rg35xx/h700 or as i'd like to call it buyer's remorse plus butthurt
>>11033613yep, it could be any shader but there has to be one
Most shaders look like shit on the RG35XX+, I'll gonna copy the overlays from OnionOS, and use them instead.

>>11034175Yes anon, Aliexpress is doing a science experiment on you. And you failed! Which is pretty amazing because this experiment didn't even have a win/fail state to it...

>>11034320update us about your lamp when it gets there
Hey guys, I'm new to the whole thing and I just installed knulli, but I can't seem to connect my handheld to my pc. I checked my router settings since some googling said being on wpa3 would cause the issue, but it looks like I'm on wpa2 (and that my router doesn't even have a setting for 3.) What obvious thing am I missing? Under network settings it says connected but I'm pretty sure it's not actually connected since trying to connect to retroachievements gives me an error 419.
>>11034219brother, windows key + s can auto scan a snip with a name like that.

>>11034423>>11034434No one is buying this tsp shill. Go to reddit.
>>11026489One thing that's been enjoyable for me, at least as someone who uses their old smartphone as a handheld, has been the "bigblur.glslp" shader in RetroArch. I'm sure 16:9 handhelds aren't as bad with this... but the negative space that a 19.5:9 display has when running 4:3 content is insane, I think having wide telescopic controllers also add to this, 25cm wide device, 10cm of actual screen.I know many might dislike this sort of look, but I see it often when vertical videos are "converted" to horizontal, and I've always liked the effect on those, I wish it had more settings, but it's great.P.S. Sonic Chaos is decent... if you go for 100%, because I did a run where my only concern was getting to the end, it was so easy and shallow... good for starters I guess, but still, go for 100%.
>>11034619it's time to buy a 4:3 'held
>>11034623I mean, that works, and perhaps it'd be ideal... I get why most people prefer that, but my current setup works and let's me play what I want to play fine enough for now, so I don't see myself in the near future spending anything on a handheld unless something here breaks, time will tell.I'd probably get a R36s since it's cheaper than most other options, or something else that's as cheap... but horizontal, as it's more comfortable.
>psp has no gam-..
>>11034704>PCSG00771 Dead Or Alive Xtreme 3 VenusIngame +Vita bros?
I'm using muOS on the H and playing super mario world I feel a insane input lag, am I crazy here
>>11034712Super Mario World already has 2 frames of native input lag, add another 3~4 of emulation + screen, and it should feel pretty laggy. Disable v-sync, enable preemptive frames (2), and it should feel better.
>>11034721There's this "run-ahead" option as well, should I enable both or just preemptive
I love this form factor. PS2 games on the go... Convince me not to get it anons.
>>11034728just enable preemptivealso use automatic frame delay, disable video threading, enable hard gpu
The game shows up on the DREAMCAST menu but when I press to open it doesn't, this is the rom. The fuck is wrong with this?
>>11034728Both do basically the same thing, but preemptive frames doesn't impact performance as much, enable just 'preemptive frames', then in 'number of preemptive frames' set it to 2.
>>11034762>>11034767Alright cheers

Stay on 4kek.>>11034619Good to see you're still enjoying your controller at least. You're lucky yours was made in a time when the cheap one's didnt just copy the switch' s pads.
>>11034790Indeed, this one's great, especially thanks to the PlayStation styled D-Pad and symmetrical analog stick layout, also they're much bigger than those Switch styled ones you see on most controllers, I think it's still available, it's a MOCUTE-060, it has its issues, but for the price it's worth it I suppose.
>>11034354I'm not familiar with Knulli but if it works similar to accessing a file share, it could be windows firewall settings that's preventing the connection. Ensure the appropriate ports for the app are open via windows firewall, google for a more in-depth guide to do this.
>>11034738literally can't even be a consideration due to the wrong dpad placementam i against the standard odin 2 as well then? no, i understand having the stick on top for stronger chinkheldsbut if you're gonna use the vita design — inexcusable

is there any chinkheld with an OLED display but with the size of a R36S?

Was gonna buy a trimui smart pro seeings how theyre on sale for super cheap....but then I remembered I've been using my lg stylo 5 for 3 years no with no issues bouncing between a gamesir x2 bluetooth and a Galileo G8. Comfy as fuck. Just works. Plays everything I nedit too. When I wanna upgrade; I'll grab a cheap older flagship and either debloat/custom rom it. And be good to go.
>>11034423which do you like better?
Anyones SP hinge die yet?
>>11035607It's only been a month. Ideally Anbernic designed them to last at least 90 days.
Finally got around to swapping my backplate. Really like how it turned out.
>>11035621Just noticed the cat hair. This is the culprit .
>>11035348Nice. You got it on the sale?
Finally got that sp you guys have been talking about, but something's wrong with it, the microsd slot is really big and it doesn't even have usb-c.But in all seriousness I always wanted an sp, so this is one thing checked off my bucket list. It's in great condition too.
>>11035751sp sucka, good job wasting your money.
>>11035718it was on sale but not from aliexpress.i feel like im compensating for something when using it. it's fucking massive.
>>11033560>I am waiting for a refresh because it has been out a while not because of reviews. Fair, the 505 has been out for nearly two years at this point.

I'm getting a hankering for playing the Castlevania Soma Saga so are there any devices that handle DS games' touch screen controls or should I just look into replacing my N3DS's battery?
>>11035781lol awful
I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to emuhelds. I see that a lot of them advertise SD cards with pre-loaded games. Am I correct to presume that, if no SD card option is selected, buyers would have to source the roms/isos/whatever themselves? Would the pre-loaded roms have patches/hacks?
>>11035872The bundled SD cards are almost all cheap garbage that will randomly fail on you after a few read/write cycles. The pre-loaded stuff is usually junk, and sourcing roms takes you about 5 minutes these days, you can find a million rom packs of varying quality if you don't want to sort through a fullset.
>>11035872a lot of the linux based ones (most of them) have the os + software in the sd card and wont boot without it. usually "no sd card" would mean no extra ones included, but comes with the boot card. if it advertises 500000 games, then it'll have it on the included card, and yes, a lot has romhacks and shit included.
>>11026489so for those who have the TrimUI Smart Pro, how would you personally rate it's ability to handle Saturn, Dreamcast, N64, and PSP emulation, either with stock firmware(though I've heard you can tweak some things with stock to get some additional performance) or with whatever CFW is available for it
>>11035851405M, Retroid 2S, and Retroid 4P have touch screens. Those are the only ones I can speak on since I own them. There might also be hacks on CDR to bypass the touch shit, I know at least 1 DS Cv game does.
>>11035338I've enjoyed muOS on the SP so far
>>11035032>muOS on 35SP>assume OS just knows what emulator to use even if different rom types are in the same folder>move all 3 Capcom arcade libraries to one folder>emulator is applied per folderHow was I supposed to know?

I guess I'll get something else or wait for anbernic to do another wave where the issues are addressed? not sure if thats something they do
>>11036253The cube's lightbleed was fixed pretty quickly, but too many people bought the sp, so zhou might not care.

Finally beat Devastator (Mega CD) on my RG Arc. Really cool game, but god DAMN that last boss was a cunt. There's also no checkpoints in the entire level for some reason. So when you inevitably die on any of his phase, you have to re-spend 10 minutes or w/e fighting the two bosses right before him that take forever to kill hoping you don't take any real damage.>>11036810I love my Deck, but it's already too damn big for my tastes. The Legion is just absurd.
>>11036614Grab the $2 & $4 coupons from the event for items over $19 and $29Search R36S and add it to your cartGo to the discount finder (coins area) and search R36S and _click_ on a few of themGo to super discount finder (earn more coins) and see if there's any good deals on the R36SNo good super discounts? Go back to the discount finder, find the best deal for an R36S that isn't from a scam store, and order it.33.57 handheld with a 18% coin discount is 33.57 * (1 - .18) = 27.53. Or something like that.
Alright lads.I'm considering getting the RGB30 for GB/GBC. Tell me why I should or shouldn't pull the trigger, I've been jonesing for a 1:1 handheld.

>>11037250Pull, the screen is superp for it.Speakers also deliver.I specifically bought it just for these two systems and i am not dissapointed.Downside is the blocky form, it may become uncomfortable after time.I need to try a Grip at some point.
>>11037250systems rgb30 is good at (1:1 par, integer scale, integer scale override): gb/gbc, pc engine, snes, nes, neo geo pocket/color, 3:4 shmups, some arcade games, gamegear, master system, atari but haven't triedsystems that are straight 4:3: genesis, ps1, n64, saturn, most arcade games, 6th gennot all games are passable with 1:1 par, integer scale, integer scale override but many/most are
>>11037267Excellent. The form factor does seem a little weird but I know a few people with 3D printers to remedy that if it's too bad.>>11037269Doing the lord's work. GB/GBC is my main focus but knowing SNES is going to also be served well is a nice plus.
>>11037269Also x68000, it's actually a perfect 1:1 aspect ratio in PAR.>b-but I don't know what to playYou can start with Cho Ren Sha, Zugya, Castlevania, and then explore more from there if you liked them. The library is actually pretty great. Wonderswan is also a good use case imo because of the vertical switching. Master System is actually 4:3 in PAR, tho.
>>11037250I like it, but I don't feel comfortable recommending it at all.
