Do laptops count
>>12105348GPD maybe, I don't know
>>12105348when I think of chink handheld I think of snapdragon arm. if it has that then sure
>>12105145I ordered mine late august and it just shipped - I'm guessing they're doing it by preorder date, stay strong, and prep your game library/microSD card
>>12105358When I think chinkheld, I think 3566 with nigux. I need more, but don't know what I want.
>>12105406SD865 would be the next logical step up, then 8Gen2 after that. Preferably a device with Linux support since those have drivers these days.
>>12105406odin 2 supports rocknix and android ontop of mesa drivers. i think thats good enough for most people.
>>12105346does Stock OS actually suck on Anbernics or is it just a loud minority of picky autists kind of thing
>>12105517Sometimes they do. Sometimes they're fine. Sometimes they ship them with the same firmware on review units. Sometimes already updated.
>>12105517Linux? Yes, frontend is shitty and doesn't let you pick cores, sloppy all around. And even if it didn't suck, portmaster refuses to troubleshoot it so no reason to keep it.Android? Yes, very feature poor compared to Ayn/Retroid's, tends to launch with issues that sometimes get patched.
>>12105598>doesn't let you pick coresYes it does>>12105598>portmaster refuses to troubleshootPortmaster discord os anal retentive in general to even cfw's sometimes. Not the users, the devs.>Ayn/RetroonThey're literally not too different. Magic x and gpd are the best with android builds and only powkiddy's are subpar these days if you don't count the newer sjgam handhelds having super locked down android.
I think I regret getting the Thor in black. It was a hard decision between black and rainbow, but seeing rainbow now on images it looks soooo good...
>>12105638>Yes it doesNo, it doesn't. It just offers you shitty ass several years old standalones that run wrong as the default, no control over launching games on the RA menu.>They're literally not too different.As if. Anbernic will never have a virtual mouse for starters, no setup wizard, no OdinTools. The D8300 launched with broken CPU scaling and, IIRC, fan control.
>>12105661The black is the best because the black borders around games melt into the handheld. Only Russ says black sucks because he's a homo about smudges like you can't just wipe it down with a cloth for 10 seconds.
>>12105713The stuff about the borders is true but I really, really like the rainbow look... Oh well I will survive it
>>12105703>It just uses [Purposely spreading misinformation]Your days are numbered, chris. Retroon and lbgtyn have better shills
>>12105719OkWhat ifThey make the top screen blackAnd have the bottom be white/rainbow?
>>12105759I mean, that's how it is
Is we getting a new rg arc
What is the cheapest widescreen chinkheld that plays up to PS Vita?The new Mangmi looked good until I saw couple of videos where its chipset (SD 662) struggled hard on Vita games
I believe handheld gaming has its place.
>>12105885Vita emulation sucks on everything.If you want to play Vita games, get a Vita.
>>12105885a ps vita is the best device for vita.no other device has all the functions as none has the rear touch panel.and yes, the vita counts as a chinkheld because it's made in china.
>>12105967I literally do not know a single game that uses the rear touch panel
What games should I play on my Thor?
>>12105990PS1 games for L2 and R2
>>12106019>rear touch panel for L2 and R2That sounds like a miserable experience.
Do only the black thors have creaky hinges?
>>12106115Yes for purely economic reasons
>>12106042Better than playing PS1 games on PSP
>>12106212PSP adds more soul to the experience than Vita does.
>>12105885Just buy a Vita before they get expensive. Right now they cost fuck all if you're not an autismo about scratches.
>>12105661Me but with the RP2S
>>12105936ips, oled, miniled yada yada... where is my e-ink-like display chinkhelds a la playdate?
>>12106312what's the point, rpgs and visual novels?anything else will look awful
SHOULD I BUY THE FUCKING MANGMI
Is there like a way to play Scholl days and summer days on Android? I don't know If is there a english versión for PSP? Or ps2?
>>12106594Winlator or Gamehublite, maybe? Search them on RGT to see if there was a patch released or just google it.
>>12106594I dont want to learn japanse PLEASE guys
Is the RP5 good enough to run 2D Windows games like VNs and hentai games. Asking for a friend.
>>12106626I was playing Joiplay RPGM h-games on RP4P so I would imagine yes
>>12106239Ngage was the true souvlful ps1 handheld.>>12106626Yes. If those hentai games use rpgmaker, you can use joiplay. Visual novels should be child's play.
>>12106545WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU LOOKING TO PLAY?
>>12106636EVERYTHING UP TO PSPMAINLY PSP IN FACT
>>12105990little big planet and tearaway make extensive use of it.other games use it too but it's optional.
>>12106679THEN YEAH NIGGA. THE NEW AYANEO IS CHEAPER AND MOAR POWERFUL, BUT FOUR:THREE! THERE'S ALSO THE POWKUNNY X28 WITH COINS AND COUPONS WHICH WOULD BE A KINO PSP EXPERIENCE BUT IT'S UP TO YOU!!!
>>12106703>T618Nta but meh. I'd go for more power just for the sake of it.
>>12106679NTA but in that case you genuinely can't find a better alternative to the Mangmi at its pricetag outside of purchasing an actual PSP.
>>12106703>THE NEW AYANEO IS CHEAPERwait what?
>>12106726Ayaneo cookedLook it up
>>12106703>Ayaneo>CheaperNever thought I'd see those two words together.
>>12106726>>12106749Not just cheap, but decently capable too. /ourguy/ did a video on ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0FAZ1jI410
>>12106708THE MANGMI IS WEAKER THAN THE 618. WEAKER THAN THE T610 EVEN. ALL THREE ARE GOOD SNOO SNOO BUYS BUT IT'S UP TO YOU FOR SCREEN QUALITY COMFORT AND CONTROLS. AND POWKIDDY'S ACUTALLY ISN'T WORST FOR ONCE!
>>12106729>>12106756looks amazing but the screen seems like it would kinda suck for psp games sadly
>>12106679I'd advise against the X28 unless it's extremely cheap (<$100), too many issues.
>>12106763>THE MANGMI IS WEAKER THAN THE 618.Really? Embarrassing.
>>12106763>>12106787Meh, seems good enough if someone just wants a cheap PSP chinkheld.
>>12106756Damn, that ghosting looks rough.>>12106787I'm not keeping track of the M90T, but worth mentioning X28 is the slowest T618 in the market because powkiddy got extra cheap with the RAM.
Fuck, what colour Pocket Air Mini should I get?!Why couldn't Retro Power use the same white colour as Retro White?!
Best Android/Linux handheld with a microswitched stick like the Neo Geo Pocket?
>>12106763>4:3If that shit can't play PS2 and Gamecube then what's the point? All other 4:3 devices around that price can play everything up to PS1 just fine. The Air X is at least good for PSP.
>>12106837N64, Dreamcast, and Saturn. I love my 40XXH but it's not an ideal machine for those to say the least.
>>12106837>If that shit can't play PS2 and Gamecube then what's the point?Big screen with good scaling.>All other 4:3 devices around that price can play everything up to PS1 just fine. But not Dreamcast, N64 and all those arcade games that just choke and die. Or Amiga.>>12106824Write them a nice email requesting Retro White Power.
>>12106787NOT IN A WAY THAT MATTERS MIND YOU>>12106818THE SLOWER RAM LITERALLY DOESN'T EFFECT ANYTHING UNLESS YOU PLAY PS2 AND GC ON A T618. CPU TUNER UNLOCKS THE PROPER PERFORMANCE FOR THOSE, BUT IT'S A BAD IDEA. PEOPLE HAVE KILLED OR CUT HOLES FOR EXTRA AIRFLOW IN THEIR RP3+ FOR THOSE SYSTEMS.
But for real, when can we expect near-flawless PS2 emulation on a device at the price point of the Pocket Air Mini?Which SoC can meet that price threshold?
>>12106915You could be getting that right now, the emulator itself is the biggest issue.
>>12106915honestly at the rate we're moving, probably 3 years
>>12106915That would require mass demand from other industries so Max and co. can buy them on the cheap, and that will take a while. Guessing 5 years.
>>12106915Near flawless PS2 emulation just won't happen on a handheld, even Drakengard 1 and Shadow the Hedgehog have issues on the D8300 or even the Snapdragon G3X Gen 2 used in the Ayaneo EVO. We may get to a point 2-3 years from now where PS2 at 2x native res becomes common place on budget handhelds, but the quality of the emulator used is the major limiting factor.
>>12107047>Shadow PS2Christ almighty, play Reloaded Widescreen on GC for your health you beautiful retard
>>12107047I can't imagine seeing how technology has progressed over the last 20 years and then being retarded enough to think "near flawless PS2 emulation just won't happen on a handheld".
>>12105661me but with the sfc RP5 (i want white or black)
>>12107051because the ps2 emulator has been dogshit forever.
newfag hereWhy shouldn't I just get 1 strong handheld that can play everything?Is there a reason to get a weaker companion handheld?
>>12107230I have a Retroid Pocket Flip 2 and I got a RG35XXSP purely for nostalgia reasons.
>>12107230The optimal combo is to get a Deck + small beater linux handheld that you can throw in your pocket or a sling
Once you own a big powerful one that plays everything you'd think man I wish I had a small one I can put in my pocket then you think wow a clamshell would be nice and then you think maybe I should try a vertical handheld and then a new handheld is announced where it has dual screens and you think I should get one to play DS games. That's how this hobby goes.
>>12107230you should, i got a portal and have had no urge to get anything else.
>>12105713This. Especially on my mini v2, some systems look great using the full 8;7 but others not as much so you never see what little black border there is with the preferred aspect, even gba games which leave A LOT of black space.
>>12107230Not only can you do that, it's the logical standard and should be the starting point people think of unless they're on a tight budget. The reason some of us stray and get more than one can be for a couple of reasons. Often the powerful system is a big tablet device like a Steamdeck or Odin 2 Portal, and they think "boy it would be nice to have something small I can just stuff in my pocket and take everywhere, even if it can't play all my games. Or another reason, as is the case with me, is that I have an RP4 Pro which can of course easily handle older games and is still relatively portable. But I still prefer playing those older games on my 40XXH because the 4:3 screen, Nintendo-style dpad, and digital triggers make it feel like a better, more well-suited experience for me than on my RP4. Stuff like that. But people should only think about getting one general purpose device to begin with, and they'll know after a while whether they have a use case for one or more supplementary systems.
>>12106607I loved this art style
>>12105836Looks good
yall gonna get the mangmi or pocket air mini?
>>12107230Because sometimes it’s way cooler for pull out a cheaper beater handheld and play with that for while
>>12107243>maybe I should try a vertical handheldI am hereMy thoughts on the 40xxv are that the ergonomics are definitely annoying. They gave the right side a nice rounded corner but the left is sharp for no good reason except fuck you
>>12107304>no good reasonDumb zoomer, what are you even doing on a retro videogame board
>>12107314I bought the one with a big 4 inch IPS screen not to find 100% authenticity.
>>12107317Stfu, my man just owned your zoomer ass sit down
>>12107314>>12107335>Leh vertslop goodThe gayboi always felt like shit for gay fuckbois. The chadga nomad, gamegear, and lynx all felt kino. Gayboi was good because of its library, russ
>>12106626>Is the RP5 good enough to run 2D Windows games like VNs and hentai games. Asking for a friend. Playing Vitamin Quest on my RG505 via JoiPlay, so definitely yes (RP5 mogs RG505 in performance).
>>12107317May not need 100% authenticity but obviously they're going to take some design cues as a tribute to its biggest inspiration, including having that very round right corner and the only-slightly-rounded-but-still-not-at-all-sharp left corner.
Are there any real life pictures of the Retro Power colorway for the Pocket AIR Mini?
>On its way>Oct 17>Confirmed>Sep 14Nice>>12105369Yeah for real. Did other USbros have to pay tariffs for theirs? What's the current %?
>>12107230For me it's about finding shortcomings and intentional design flaws on expensive ones inexcusable (especially with their tendency to get obsoleted in roughly one year), while a chink here and there on a $60 weak shitbox that is actually unique and won't get smoked in months (eg CubeXX, 34xx), doesn't bother me as much. Does that make sense? They're also not significantly compact or pocket friendly at all to be worth considering.
>>12107424Apparently Ayaneo had a showing at TGS this year where they showed off the Famicom Red and Retro Power colors. I still went with the red and white one, especially since you can swap stick caps from the tobacco yellow color they went with, but I think it at least doesn't look that bad in real life photos and videos like it does in the marketing.https://x.com/simeis512/status/1972121485780418744https://x.com/watch_akiba/status/1972167752392843312
>>12107527>especially since you can swap stick caps from the tobacco yellow color they went withSwap out as in different stick caps are included?Or I'd need to get third party stick caps?
>>12107458I think it's still 100%, but Trump just said today he's going to drop them after he meets with Xi. Guess he couldn't get a big pump and dump this time.
>>12107516>intentional design flaws on expensive ones inexcusableMoral dilemma for me is wanting Thor but hating that dpad/L analog position on every Ayn device
>>12107234>>12107230yeah I have a flip2 and a rg35xx plus which I never really touch. The flip 2 is probably my perfect device (except for emulation which needs a few more years of development). The color scheme and launcher (beacon) is perfect, NDS and 3DS are fine played with one bigger screen and one smaller screen on the flip2's display.I guess the other guy that said the steam deck + small linux handheld is right. A large device for emulating at home/in bed and then a small one for travel is optimal.
flip 2’s control placement is still all wrong imo
>>12107639Yet it's more comfortable than the Thor.
>>12107639It looks like it but it feels fine
>>12107557You can probably just swap the stick caps out with third party caps, as this seems to be the case with Ayaneo's current devices. I assumed that naturally other cap colors would be included as this happened with the original Pocket Air and how people weren't terribly happy with the cream colored caps included, so Ayaneo included red and black colored caps with the device. Unfortunately it just doesn't seem like other stick colors are an option, at least from what chinese users showed off in the 1:42 mark.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cedMEuviXWoFor some reason Arthur Zhang loves the "weathered" look that comes with the cream color caps.
>>12107639I prefer it now
The temptation...
>>12107735me too bro...
What are the logistics of using winlator or gamehublite to run PCSX2 for better PS2 gameplay than NetherSX2?
>>12107764
>>12107051It has nothing to do with technology. The technology is already there. Android PS2 emulation is simply shit, and will remain so until someone new dons the schizoid crown and starts real development on it again.

>>12107929Mogs the Thor I fear>>12107953Mogs the 34xx I fear
>>12107953Why did it take them so long just to do what people wanted? A miyoo mini except clamshell. Nobody asked for analogs for the Miyoo Flip.
>>12107948it's okay we can all have our hand held eventually
In awe at the size of this lad
>>12107953>The 750x560 resolution... does clean 2x and 3x integer scaling for stuff like Gameboy, NES, Super Nintendo, and Genesis. So the pixels stay sharp without blurry interpolation artifacts, or big gutters around the screen.TechDweeb straight-out fucking lying to glaze Miyoo once again. At that resolution you get more letterboxing/pillarboxing with 224p/240p games at 2X integer and 160x144 games at 3X integer than you would on a 640x480 display. Only advantage is you can bump GBA from 2X to 3X without cutting off the sides, but that's it. The only way to avoid a black border on that screen is to use interpolation.Also>It's got the same guts as the Miyoo MiniWe knew this would be the case, but still, instant fuck right off there. The fact that Miyoo is STILL selling devices with the worst chipsets on the market this many years in is mind-boggling. All these reviewers always whinge about Anbernic pumping out a zillion H700 devices, but at least that chipset is worth a shit and does the bare minimum you'd expect one of these things to be able to do at the price range these all sell for. SSD202D can't even use the most basic-ass shaders, run any decent operating systems, or handle standard resolution PS1. And I don't know if it was hilarious or depressing when they chose a different chipset for the A30 and it was barely any different in terms of it limitations. What was even the point? In fact, what's the point of Miyoo when I can buy literally anything else and get a better experience?>>12107980>Why did it take them so long just to do what people wantedIt's going to take them even longer because they still haven't got there. All I want is a Miyoo handheld that isn't fucking trash. I hope Anbernic uses their endless supply of RG28XX screens and H700 chips to announce both a 28XX-V and a 28XX-SP and just humiliate these pricks. I say that knowing full well that Miyoo is just going to pay more Youtube shills to keep blowing smoke up their ass, but god damn
>>12107969its painful to see the competency crisis affect even bait
>>12107929Speakers sound really rough. Stuttering on some 3DS JRPG is bad, but expected. >>12108051I did not know this was just a Mini with a hinge, what's the point? Anbernic can just steal their shit again but with a h700 whereas the 3356 at least gave them an edge.
>>12108048Gross
>>12108048>all that empty space>single speakerevery fucking time.
>>12107929>Anbernic RG DS>Mangmi Air X>Ayaneo Pocket Air MiniThe holy trinity of the poorfag chinkhelds
>>12107929Controls look terrible. The d-pad and buttons are too high up. Just fucking copy the original layout if you're making a gimmick device aimed at fans of a specific console, you retarded bugs. They ruined the Vita clone too by giving it an Xbox stick layout for no fucking reason.
>>12108461what are you talking about? this layout is better for larger hands anyways
>>12108461Anbernic girl has really small hands, the controls will be perfect for normal sized people.
>>12108461>Just fucking copy the original layout if you're making a gimmick device aimed at fans of a specific console, you retarded bugs.Don't, fix the start and select up to modern standards.
>>12108532>fix the start and select up to modern standardsmodern standards is not having select and start at all.
>>12108547I don't care what they call them, it's start and select.
>>12108051We absolutely do need an RG280V+ It is their best mini design, in my humble opinion. If the RG280V had a bit more power and compatibility for MuOS, it would be fire.
>>12106115What do you mean by creaky? I don't hear or feel anything on mine
>>12108637>he can't hear the creak
>>12108461At least with the RG557 it makes sense to give it the Xbox layout because the chipset used is powerful enough to warrant it. It should still be fine, but like with the Thor or Ayaneo DS it's just a compromise of needing to include two sticks. onto a clamshell. At the very least it still is ideal for DS games, along with retro games in general.

>>12105346I just got an Rg35xxSP. It's been a great accompaniment to my shits and lying in bed waiting for my body to decide to go to sleep so far. Going to get a replacement SD card, perhaps try the tape mod and maybe put Knulli or MuOS on it. Makes me nostalgic for the GBA I never had, plus the cream version I got reminds me of a fucking tricorder.
>>12109025This is a great device. Once I'd got Knulli on it, it was just about perfect for me. Plays all the retro games I want up to PS1 and feels great to carry around.
Price drop due to orange man removing tariffs?
>>12108889There's supposed to be a Linux model coming fairly soon after this one so hopefully that one's way better in terms of input lag and performance. The fact it runs 3DS games at all gives me hope for Melon DS and Melon DS DS and being able to go past 1x scaling.
Thor bros... what are we going to do now...
>>12108981>oh no, he thinks differently, he must be wrongthe rg280v design is nothing special, the rg300x isn't all that different either, but at least the buttons are at an angle. no other chinkheld i've seen has them aligned like that and it works great for NES and GB.
>>12109121wait for the thing to arrive
>>12109010>Heshush
Are any of those dual screen memehelds out already?Has anybody here tried one?How do they feel with a stylus? Anything like the actual DS/3DS or is it shittier?
>>12109146>How do they feel with a stylus? Anything like the actual DS/3DS or is it shittier?They've got the wrong screen tech, they'll never feel as good.
>>12109146>How do they feel with a stylus?They all use screens like you'd have on your phone so you can test that right now with your own if you want. You need to get a specific stylus meant for capacitive screens and it does feel different than how it does on the DS and 3DS from my experience with having to use one for my dad's phone occasionally when he insists I use it because it's easier.Essentially, it feels more like you're "gliding" on the screen and it's more slippery. I don't know how to explain it. It's not really pen-like but more like a gliding feeling instead. It's entirely usable but it's a different feeling to a DS and 3DS and will feel "off".
Should I get a case with my PAM?How's the quality of Ayaneo's cases?
>>12109146>Are any of those dual screen memehelds out already?Quite a few. If you're talking about the Thor then it started shipping already and some people close to China already got it.>Has anybody here tried one?No lmao>How do they feel with a stylus? Anything like the actual DS/3DS or is it shittier?The modern phone screens are all capacitative while the DS screens were resistive. That basically means modern screens are better and more accurate with fingers, but will always be worse with a stylus. I haven't watched it, but Russ put out a video testing a bunch of professional and chink stylus' on the Thor screen and he basically said none of them are as good as playing on original hardware. It's just the trade-off you have to live with for better screens.
>>12109146Dual screen is a meme, people will learn to hate it not long from now, as well as the systems that necessitated them

>>12109178revved
>>12108889would it be that much more expensive to just have resistive screens and pack it with a plastic stylus?
Man I really want something with dual analogs to replace my perfectly functional miyoomini+RG40XX H or R350?When is pocket air mini shipping?
Why couldn’t they make the Thor 3D? That’s at least neglecting 25% of what the 3DS was
>>1210919135XXH
>>12107940The video previews are completely pointless and add almost nothing but I love them
>>12109146I dont think they make resistive touch screens anymore
>>12109195No one used 3D on the 3DS,you had to be super gay to play it that way.
>>12109228I did>>>/r/3ds
>>12109195Its an esoteric technology that tons of people didn't use because it hammered the 3ds's battery life.
>>12109195most probably it would inflate the price even more.on top of a 3d screen they would also need to upgrade the SoC to be able to render stereoscopic 3d.
>>12109189>>12109223I'm sure they do, but not en masse and that means, yes, it would be much more expensive.
Thinking of getting Mangchink Air X as my first emulator handheld, focusing on PSP games.But honestly speaking, are these things just consoomer novelties compared to just buying a controller and emulating on an old phone?
>>12109279phone controllers tend to suck ass unfortunately.
>>12109280Online reviews say the gamesaar ones are good albeit expensive...
>>1210919140XXH, it's the PS1-and-below champion.
>>12109283Those ones are kinda big, aren't they? If it fits in your pocket wtv, but the form factor always kinda sucks.
>>12109291>>12109283>>12109280>>12109279phone controllers always feel awkward because the device is so wide. Just get a Chinese handheld. It might be fine if you've got an old phone that you don't use. It's still janky though
>>12109228wrong>>12109264wronglarping faggots
>>12109228I used it.
>>12109314>Just get a Chinese handheld.Which one? Odin 3/Portal and RP5 are wider than most phones now.
>>12109369I've got the flip2 and I fucking love it, everything is perfect about it (except possible future hinge issues which worry me but I've it had it 5-6 months now and no issues). Play it 100x more than any anbernic or powkiddy device I owned. It's very compact, can fit in your pocket, slightly bigger than the rg35xx
>>12109379I had to buy a grip for mine for it to be comfy but its nice now.
>>12109279nope there are good devices these days much better than controller + phone. A lot of what you read online is just nitpicking when 99% of normal people will be happy with just playing a game on an anbernic or retroid
>>12109279>just buying a controller and emulating on an old phone?here's your retro experience bro
>>12109449this is just everyone who uses a 16:9 handheld
Is RG34XXSP a good idea if I want something small almost exclusively for fucking around with portmaster? I have no idea if horizontal form factor is better or if the screen being 3:2 is a problem.
I hate TechDweeb so much why does this nigger have to do this faggot loser whine bit every video "when i was younger i was shy and a loser and had anxiety problems im just a quirky nerd uwu"It's like hes trying to appeal to retarded women but hes reviewing chink handhelds
>>12109547All of that gay shit, being a quirky little twink with skeleton arms peeking out of far too long sleeves, his babytalk finding a way into every sentence he forms, this fag is nigh unwatchable. He can shove his 'diddly-doo's' up his nasally congested ass.
>>12109580>>12109547his DS DE theme is dogshit as well
I really really hate preordering shit, especially chinkshit, but the Pocket Air Mini looks so tempting.How much does the shipping usually cost? I've never bought anything from Ayaneo or used Indiegogo.
2gb or 3gb for the Air Mini?
>>121096243gb would be better for gc/ps2
>>12109379I don't like having to buy grips for my handhelds.
>>12109520Portmaster is great on it, the GTAs work perfectly at least, and the N64 decomps too. Haven't tried much else yet though
>>12109547because it's funny and it makes his videos more interesting than another boring white guy with beard.
>>12109279You're phone can totally do psp without problems and telescopic controllers can be a good test run to see if an android handheld is for you.>>12109280It's not the days of Ipega anymore. Even razor controllers don't suck even if they're overpriced memes.
>>12109654I'm still surprised that the Mini is even capable of playing some GC/PS2 games at 2X res all, I thought for sure that even with 3gb of RAM that the apps would either crash or it'd just run terribly.
>>12109494only with the dpad in the wrong spot, and stuck with android, and probably bluetooth so stuck with latency, and controller itself as expensive if not more than a beater chinkheld
>>12109797Only most here with widescreen chinkhelds rock android. With just as much latency because it's still android. And telescopic controllers are only more expensive than the android handhelds where you can't tell are android. (Sjgam's later stuff)
>>12109864>With just as much latency because it's still android.2015 is not retro, bro>And telescopic controllers are only more expensive than the android handhelds where you can't tell are android.why are you only comparing to android handhelds? If someone wants to play links awakening I'm recommending the RGCubeXX, not the Odin 2
>>12109914>Not retroWhat does that have to do with anything? The average retroid and odin owner post about their handhelds more.>Why are you only comparing to androidThe same reason I wouldnt compare an android handheld to a linux one. I also missed the part where you said beater handheld, but decent tele controllers still are more expenesive these days anymore.
>>12109970>What does that have to do with anything?It was a joke about the opinion being old, android lag these days caused by either bluetooth or unoptimized emulators>I also missed the part where you said beater handheld, but decent tele controllers still are more expenesive these days anymore.fair
>>12110005>The jokeI get it. i meant arent but it seems you knew that. Easysmx and gamesir make good stuff. Bsp is aimed at the streaming and at least 7th gen and up crowd, so their dpads are still below powkiddy tier.
Almost bought a ModRetro today. I didn’t, but I almost did.Did I fuck up?
>>12110021those things are limited, once they go out of production i doubt they're coming back. If you love the gameboy color, it might be your last chance to get a premium one.
>>12107929Thor sisters....
I haven't been following the news lately, but it seems like magicx is being cucked left and right.
>>12109797>o-only withno, every 4:3/8:7/10:9 game looks like this on every 16:9 screenstop the cope
>>12110114They just announce and then release their products too late. The One35 probably would've dominated the budget sector if it weren't for the fact that Ayaneo is beating them to the punch with the Pocket Air Mini. All the One35 has going for it now is that its more pocketable, probably will be cheaper with the early bird launch, and has a screen basically tailored for GBA and not much else.
I got an rg arc s in the mail. What's a good OS to put on it instead of stock? What are my options?
>>12110114zero 28 is still the best micro sized handheld
Is the Trimui Brick still the best vertical handheld in its class?
>>12110275best vertical is the retroid classic but if you mean small verticals prolly yes
>>12110283Yeah, I was talking small.
>>12109614Just do it, I'm going to order the mongomi myself, it's late in the year and both you and me deserve a new chinkheld to celebrate another year without dying.
fuck i was waiting all year for the mangmi but now ayaneo made the pocket mini and i don't know what to get, the value is just too crazy good
>>12109195It didn't work and no one used it after the mandatory tech demo on first boot, hence n2DS XL and how it's the best model. Anyone diagreeing is just shitposting.
ambernic ds will be their best selling consoletrust the plan
>>12109679Are they stretched or do they support the aspect ratio? Is the device comfortable enough to play for extended time?
>>12110314The new 2dsxl has a worse hinge... People only like it because the top half looks like a phone and it went on sale for 99 once. (Where does the time go)>>12110326Beleive in zhou...
is RP5 still the best if i am only interested in up to PS2 and an OLED screen is non-negotiable?
I think the anbernig ds should have had a 16:9 top screen so it could also play 3ds and psp, I wouldn't mind the black bars for ds and others you dont even think about it during gameplay and it wouldve made the device perfect for everyday carry. hopefully they release another device mimicing the 3ds but with the same price
>>12110341yeah, the rp6 is coming out soon tho and might have better ergos and not be glass front slop, but i probs not
>>12110343we don't even know if it can play psp thoughever
>>12110341Odin 2 Portal is much better for high end emulation, the battery is bigger and the stick is on top and it has an oled screen and nicer buttons. Get a grip if you're getting one
>>12110352if it can play ds and 3ds in the video i think it should be able to play a lot of psp
i always thought it was slept ambernic but it turns out to be anbernic. I feel dumb.
>>12110363they don't even know either
>>12110343there will be a non dual screen version. Source: My hope.>>12110352t620 can do psp no problem.
>>12110330>Are they stretched or do they support the aspect ratio? Look fine to me - both the 2d and 3d games I've played>Is the device comfortable enough to play for extended time?It depends on if the game uses L2 and R2. For the N64 ports (Ocarina in particular) getting to and using those for Z targeting is a PITA. So its not the most comfortable experience
Thor guys, is it worth getting it with EU taxes? If yes, Pro or Max? Should I just wait for a revision?
>>12110330Games mentioned scale fine, but there's a rare port here and there with poor resolution control which will stretch or be stuck on 16:9. Some, like AM2R, will require manual patching from you to support 3:2 because I'm too lazy to learn babby level scripting and submit a new one to Portmaster.
>>12109279>are these things just consoomer novelties compared to just buying a controller and emulating on an old phone?Yes. Even shit like >>12109449 is fine if you actually care about just playing video games.
>>12109662>having toSkill issue
>>12110359>and 3dsPeople aren't really falling for this, are they? Even higher end systems struggle with some 3DS,at best the nig can do like 3 actual titles and the rest will be indie shit.
>>12110519To this day there are people who insist T618 is a GC/PS2 level chip, you best believe the tourists arriving for 3/DS clones will keep the disinfo from youtubers alive.
>>12110503>>12110409Okay, thanks. Anything else is shit apart from shoulder buttons?
>>12110519>>12110526t620 can do most 3ds games 1x no problem, no need to be so angry. ive see a k56 in person play pokemon x full speed although the k56 has a lot more ram than the anbernic ds will probably have
>>12110598The mono-speaker isn't that great IMO but it's "fine" for what it is. Speaker quality is lacking on pretty much every handheld that is sub-100 bucks though so it's not really a unique problem for it to have, thankfully it supports both Bluetooth and wire headphones so you can just not use it and never notice it anyway
>>12110470Where do you live? I've seen people on their discord saying shipping with 4px will almost guarantee you that you won't have to pay any tariffs or duties and shit.On the other hand they said with DHL Express you most likely will have to pay, but I didn't have to pay anything extra on shipping to Germany.I may have been lucky tho so keep that in mind.Now for whether you want Pro or Max, I got Max but it's probably overkill. I just got it so I won't have to worry about storage ever
>WARNING FUCK ITS OVER WE LOSTEDTHORBROS THIS IS NOT A JOKEapparently there is a bug that can happen when changing the wallpaper that, and I shit you not, bricks the deviceDO NOT CHANGE THE WALLPAPER FOR NOW
>>12110805ThoRETARDS...what the FUCK is not!Retroid doing? Are they TRYING to lose to AnberNIGGER???
>>12110343>3ds and pspbuy something elsea purpose-made device doesn't need to do everything
>want to play Nintendo DS games>do I buy a $30 DS Lite from Ebay and a $5 flash cart>or a $250 chinkheld with 250ms of input latency
>>12110805>While the software was shit, the x18s somehow shipped with zero issuesIs there a genius at that strange facade company or just a case of a broken clock being right twice a day?
Wait, I just realized something. Does Android have any mapping software worth shit? At least something that won't hog performance from emulators. >>12110646Heard that one before.
>>12110876I would just gladly use my own 3ds, if I could find someone to open it up and clean it thoroughly
>>12110885They have the thing where you can map buttons to points on the screen if that's what you mean.
>>12110894No, as in map drawing for dungeon crawlers.
>>12110897Don't know, you could probably Google it
>>12110876>buy a $30 DS Lite from Ebay>'used' condition>run black light over it>was 'used' as a fleshlight
>>12110979if any of the holes on a ds are big enough for you, you're better off keeping it to yourself
>>12105346My rg35xxsp hinge is cracked.. I mean it makes opening it up less clicky so I kind of like it. But what does the future of this thing have in store for me? Will the screen straight up collapse?
>>12111052It's over
>>12110805I couldn't find any conversations on the Retro Handheld discord, but apparently this is a problem that some people swear is plaguing Android? Jesus fuck. The lack of Q&A that went into the Thor is still shocking though.
>>12109797iPhone has had retroarch for a while now
>>12111128Never heard of that, sounds like bullshit. Especially since these are running a few versions late, something this critical would be common knowledge by now.
>>12109547Felt weird hearing him mention he's in his 40s and acting like that

>>12111530word filter got another newfag
Thor bros...
>>12109449so?the only bad thing about this is that connecting the phone to a controller, be it via USB direct connection or BT, is that the moment the connection is made, the Phone will lose battery quickly. at least with BT you dont damage the charger port.truth is that getting dedicated handhelds, specially the big boys like the retroids is way too hard and or expensive. if only, a BIT less hard than trying to get a 'Dick. but still hard. its way more quicker, easier and cheaper to get a used phone and a controller.
>Ayaneo is the new budget king
>>12111610>that "dpad"OH NONO NO BROOS
Who the fuck popularized the """premium""" all-glass surfaces meme?
>>12111530Wanting a grip means you knew the ergos would be shit. Finding a clamcell rectangle comfortable means you have tuss tier hands. Both are soi. The chad option is living with the shit ergos or get a clamcel designed for MEN>>12111610For the love of fuck, get an x5 lite. Or at least something with a dpad and bigger sticks.>>12111651Pretty sure it was ayaneo, but I think they realized it was retarded dropped it.
>>12111651sony
How over is it?In all seriousness though, I already had a hunch these products weren't designed with non-normies in mind, so I came in with the expectation that something was going to falter sooner rather than later. I was in the middle of getting all S-ranks on Megaman Zero. I beat Battletoads. Was 100%ing DKC and DKC2 in 1 and 2 hours respectively, getting all Oxide times in CTR, and beating the dev times in Crash 3. It appears I am too exalted for products aimed at the casual pokemon masses. Great buttons though, and the shoulder buttons especially I found to be exceptional. So yeah, if you take gaming a bit more seriously than the next guy, can't say I would recommend these things.
>>12111674>device made for playing games>breaks if you play games on ithell of a pitch
>>12111661great gamenot sure how viable getting a nsp in 2025 is though
>>12111687Just make zgp clone it so max rushes to make his clone out of spite.
>>12111674Considering the location couldn't you just use that plastic cement that "melts" the plastic together to have it regain the structural rigidity in that location without harming the mechanism?
what are the chances anbernig makes a 2DS XL knock-off next?
Clamshells basically need to be all metal. Chinks lack quality control to pull off something delicate, they need retard proof materials
I just want to run PSP, what is cheap one?
>>12106210kek
>>12111725It shouldn't need to be fixed in the first place.
>>12111995>what are the chances anbernig releases something that uses a chip more powerful than H700?I'm thinking...not very high
>>12111610Yeah if you're dirt poor then a phone controller like in your pic is fine. Even better is to just imagine the games, its free!
>>12112095>He says, while that phone probably costz more than his 3326 chinkheld>He says while that nigga clearly plays games instead coomsooming more than a t820. [You literally don't need more until something better than winlator and hello gamesirhub comes out]

>>12112393At least the Mangmi and Ayaneo Mini seem fairly well tested and should be competent enough for up to PSP 2X gaming. The Anbernic DS should be good but I still have some doubts on how cool it will run and how long the hinge will last.

Bought a 2000 model Vita, did I fuck up? I know the 1000 model has an OLED screen, but I seen a bunch of people say it's an early OLED screen that is really prone to burn-in, and that you can just tweak the color settings on a modded 2000 to mimic a lot of the saturation. I'm not sure if this is cope or not.
>>12113902>the future is novwhile not technically wrong for now, whoever designed that font should be shot
>>12113926a vita is a vita. stop sweatin and start playin, playa'

>>12113902Glass front be gone
>>12113926>but I seen a bunch of people say it's an early OLED screen that is really prone to burn-inYou will not have burn-in unless you specific play one single game and only that game for hundreds of hours straight from power on to power off. I have like 100+ hours into Freedom Wars and Muramasa and my screen is completely fine. The only thing the OLED panels were bad for was when it went black you'd see the splotches, but it didn't affect anything and was easily ignored because it only happened when it went full on black.

>>12113926>did I fuck up?only slightly.the only real reason to recommend a vita oled is not because of the screen, but because with the 3g model you can install an internal sd card (psvsd) and leave the game slot free for physical games.this is a non-issue if you don't plan on using carts anyway. but most vita owners have a sizable collection.the vita oled also has magnetic sticks while the slim has regular carbon sticks, but they don't seem to fail as bad or quick as switch sticks.the screen on the slim is great. sony lcd screens are usually great.
>>12114352>DMGthat form factor is shit if only because they never add stereo speakers when there is plenty of space.
>>12114338retroid pocket classic is the endgame for that form factor
I ended up ordering https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808985227334.html>>12114381Advance seems kind of annoying with being wide and I'm weary of any hinges on SP likes>>12114397>$129.99 so expensive
fuck why did I buy the black pro thor bros, it's literally the slowest to ship fucking kill me
>>12113854>Not sure if I like the 2 screens when IU want to play something which only needs oneProbably the RP Flip 2 then
>>12114352You have a few options:>BATLEXP G350 (~$35)The cheapest option, it's an Anbernic device in all but name and has the same Anbernic build quality as a result. That's not a cope either, they've been caught selling these with Anbernic-branded stuff in the boxes. They're basically just using old parts and the RK3326 instead of the H700, and cutting costs like removing WiFi. (https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256809335931032.html)>Anbernic RG35XX Plus (~$45)I'd recommend this if you don't want to have sticks that you might not use on your vertical 'held. Has some features that the BATLEXP G350 doesn't have like WiFi, Bluetooth, and video out. (https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808817558916.html)>Anbernic RG35XX Pro (~$60)Basically the BATLEXP G350, but with the features that were cut out of it that the RG35XX Plus retains. I don't really think they're worth paying $25 more, but maybe you really need RetroAchievements or want to connect it to a TV sometimes. (https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806079176931.html)>Anbernic RG40XX (~$55)Same specs as the other XX devices, but it has a larger screen (4 inch vs 3.5 inch), and it has only one analog stick instead of two. (https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256807631454337.html)Everything mentioned here will run everything up to PS1. There are also some non-Anbernic verticals that you might also want to check, like the TrimUI Brick that is often $60 and under. Also, AliExpress often has a bunch of coupons that you can use to save like $5-$10 off your order. Google "crownpuff deals" and they should all be in a spreadsheet along with the best listings for most handhelds. Also, you might want to buy your own microSD card to use for these since most of these will come with shitty generic cards that have shitty ROM sets and are prone to failure, though some come with branded Kioxia cards which are decent after you format them.
>>12114415lol that isnt even the battleXP, you screwed up it's really garbage and spending a little more gets you so much better stuff
>>12114415>Advance seems kind of annoying with being wide and I'm weary of any hinges on SP likestrue and true.as i said, the only issue is the mono speaker.that's why the only vertical i can recommend is the brick. but it isn't exactly DMG sized.
retroid pocket 6
>>12114446not wide enough.
>>12114374Yeah, I didn't have a PS Vita when it was out so I didn't plan on playing physical games on it and the few PSP games I still have aren't compatible anyways. I did hear about the Hall effect sticks on the 1000 and was honestly more concerned about that than the screen, but I'm glad to hear the 2000 sticks aren't Switch-tier bad. Appreciate the rundown.
>>12114446That looks like shit.
>>12113902I feel like they've been releasing new models too fast ever since after the 4
>>12114415>Advance seems kind of annoying with being widePeople really come in here and have no idea about ergonomics
>>12114446...it looks exactly like the Retroid Pocket 5.
>>12114521DESU I would too since redditors buy every new product from me. Retroid/ayn are like the apple cult at this point.
Don't tell them, I want to see how long this goes.
>pocket air mini shipping cost is around $30>makes import fees even higher>total cost would be around $150I could buy an RP mini for like $50 more...
>>12114547There are people who already believe the 28XX SP is actually happening just because someone said it would be a good idea to compete with the Miyoo Mini Flip, it'll be a while.
>>12114541>Retroid/ayn are like the apple cult at this pointBut Retroid and Ayn are actually good and not overpriced?
>>12114641I just placed an order of 400 euros (+ taxes) for something which will play 3ds and ds games with a fuckhuge input lag and won't even be able to deliver a good wiiu experience in most cases, it's definitely overpriced.Speaking of, Thorbros, is the PS3 emu good on it? Would I be able to play Demon's souls?
>>12114654Wii U emulation is a lot to ask.In many ways it was more powerful than PS3 and 360, and it is more powerful than the Switch.
>>12114654>fuckhuge input lagHow is this Ayn's fault and not Android emulators
>>12114664Ayn could have had a resistive screen for starters,
>>12114667Yeah, a 1080p OLED 120hz resistive screen. Everyone's making those.
>>12114446>>12114450
>>12114697resistive screen is just a layer on top of the actual display, you can make everything resistive if you want
>>12114661>and it is more powerful than the SwitchYou legitimately have no idea what you're talking about.
>>12114664It's Ayn's fault for releasing it in android instead of linux
>>12114705Wait, for real? WTF are all these chinks doing then?
>>12113902Does this mean they will drop the price of the RP5 soon?
>>12114717They can't even manufacture a hinge that doesn't explode. The only reason the screens in chinkhelds are so good is because they were all originally made for professionally-made devices from real companies.
>>12114726they already dropped the price a few weeks ago
>>12114590After Anbernig went full retard copying Miyoo Flip with 34XXSP, I think a 28XXSP is actually pretty likely
>>12114709>linux>dual screen setupyeah let me just access the terminal to troubleshoot all the time
>>12114446I don’t know what the fuck they can do outside of sticking a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 into it, and I still don’t think they’ll go that far out of fear of stepping on stepping on the toes of the AYN brand since Retroid is supposed to be about “value”. It’s also fucking weird that Moorechip is now obsessed with glass panels everywhere, even Ayaneo has toned it down on some of their recent devices.
>>12109106>There's supposed to be a Linux model coming fairly soon after this oneWhere the fuck did you hear that?
>>12114446fake AI garbage meme
>>12114821It will run Apple instead of Android this time
