I don't understand the appeal of clamshells
I don't understand the appeal of GameBoy-like bricks
>>12207984>>12207976>>12207918are there any other options other than the thor that i should consider? i havent been in this thread since around the beginning of this year so im kind of out of the loop, my friend out of the blue asked me about chinkhelds and now im here again
I don't understand the appeal of dual screens other than for DS/3DS
>>12208006Social media brainrot or maps.
Far stronger than the 3/DS and with many more games to play, duh.
>>12208006You can use a guide while playing
>>12202460>>>Ross on RG DS is up.>>>Fellow anbernin-enriched, I don't feel so good.>>12202942>>Can't believe the Thor won so easily>>12202953>They are not even in the same league retard.I can't believe the almost 2 years old TrimUI Smart Pro won so easily...
>>12208006Wii U
>>12208006Porn addicts
>>12208005For a dual screen chinkheld? The thor is really the only one worth considering. IMO emulating DS and 3DS is still very rough and prone to latency even with this form factor, anything that requires any sort of timing will feel off or be borderline unplayable, and the lack of resistive touch makes stylus games feel wrong. Don't buy for the sake of playing DS and 3DS, treat it as a bonus feature.That said the thor made me realize that the reason I want a handheld at all is to have a dedicated machine that I don't need to fuck around with, and can just have at the ready to pick up and play whenever. Android-based handhelds need too much tinkering, and with it having a second screen the urge to tinker with that to get the most out of it is massive.I don't see the point of high-performance handhelds.
DS and 3DS are the only systems where using original hardware feels better than emulating them
Can't relate. I never perceived a difference between playing NDS games on my DSi or emulating them on my PC with Desmume or MelonDS.I will never understand that sort of weird puritan view.
>>12208058Depends how much they rely on touch controlsPlaying something like Trauma Center with a mouse feels weird
>>12208058Pc's and ios don't have android tier input delay. Not a problem for turn based stuff but ds rpg's acutally suck dick while it has better strategy games. For 3ds, its the other way around
>>12208053I'd argue the same about Wii, honestly. Too many games rely heavily on the pointing and wagglan, and setting the original controller up on an emulator is always a nightmare.>>12208058Drawn to Life, Cooking mama, Pokemon ranger, hell even animal crossing feels weird on DS without the touch screen. And that's just a few childhood games off the top of my head I'd want to play again.Maybe I'm weird but I've tried emulating DS many many times since I got into emulation in the late 00s, and I'd always end up disappointed.
>>12208069I got a Wiimote with a Dolphin bar and had no issue with emulating most games on my PCThe emulator also recognised my controller easily
watching jewy crash out live in his youtube comments rn kek
>>12208117Who?

Even techdweeb's starting to look like he can benchpress you.>>12208190He's the same retard as all the rest. The only good one's are ai-eta prime and taki udon. Aka, the man who saved retroid.
>>12207981nice threadI was looking at Retroid Pocket G2, RP6 and maybe an AYN Thor, which would you guys get? I like the Thor because of the dual screen and that you can watch stuff if you want on one of the screens. It fits my daily life more so than the others. I was also looking at the ANBERNIC RG 477M, love the screen on that. My absolute max is $400 and was looking at the thor ultra variation, does the extra memory help beyond 16?

>>12208179Joey is literally a fat retard.
>>12208252he is so unlikeableand he's hawking those trash handheld stands (literally made from trash)
Honestly the RG477M is the only one that actually knows what it wants to be. Everything else is either gimmick stacked on gimmick or priced like a bad joke. If you're just trying to play retro stuff, make the screen square, big, the handheld small, and stop overthinking it.
>>12208117Filming yourself holding Chinese IEDs and complaining about the left analog stick placement is a very stressful job.
Is the Ayn Thor worth it for DS emulation? I've read about the latency but wanted to know some first hand accounts since I'm prejudiced against youtubers.
>>12208279Russ >>>>>>>>>> shit > jewy just for this reason alone. He doesn’t go full retard as often and will remind you to grab a snack and drink in many of his vids.>>12208290IIRC he moved on from reviewing chinkhelds to basically starting up his own company. They don’t make chinkhelds but they do put out MiSTer clones and drop in OLED panels for the Switch Lite.
>>12208368input lag is a meme depending on what type of game you want to play
>>12208152>that random 4channel.org remark>moral grandstanding with blueskACK>now thisYou just know that weasel got a higher score than all of us combined. Bet it's him posting his shit here too.

Is there anywhere other than here and Reddit where chinkhelds are discussed? This thread always feels disorganized when you're looking for something specific, and Reddit is Reddit.
>>12208132no
>oh sweet the 'eck is on sale>its just the dogshit LCD version no one wants>my portal has a way better screen than the OLED 'ecksigh...
like i know valve doesnt want to ever make a deck 2 until they 2x performance but why can't they upgrade the oled screen to not be utter low res dogshit at 90hz when the portal has a 1920x1080 AMOLED display at 120hzif the chinks can get it for their lithium battery bombs why can't valve
>>12208517small company pls understand
>>12208506there's the Retro Handhelds and Retro Game Handhelds discords, which usually have channels for specific handhelds. They can be a bit quiet though
>>12208517They can source the screens from whoever the fuck themselves since they're chinks in chinaland. Lower companies are the exception as it seems they cant even get cheap oleds sourced from dogshitp phones or tablets.
>>12208517Valve is fairly justified in using a lower resolution panel considering the specs used in the Deck. It's running an RDNA2 APU; it was never going to run UE5 games with gaytracing even with upscaling + frame gen, and in terms of playable performance with AAA games that came out around its launch it typically maxes out at a bit over 720p. Not to mention that a higher resolution would justify the need for more juice, and given that plenty of people try play modern PC games on mobile APUs it would just result in situations of retards going>HURR WHY DOES THE DECK HAVE A BAD BATTERY LIFE IN THIS MODERN AAA GAME AT FULL WATTAGE? WHY AM I GETTING BAD PERFORMANCE IN MY MODERN SLOP GAMES, I'M ONLY TRYING TO RUN IT ON THIS MOBILE APU AT A FULL 1080P RESOLUTION
>>12208589i guess but the oled steam deck is already like 200$ more than the LCD one so there's no reason for Valve to be using dogshit oled panels when random chink shit can package a whole handheld with a much better AMOLED screen for the same 200$ they marked up the oled deck
>ordered 5 days ago>feels like Ive been waiting 2 weeks already>still hasnt shippedjust fucking kill me
>>12208152average millennial male, their biggest fear is being seen as a homophobe or racist. why was someone searching tranny or nigger in an emulation project discord anyway? seems like some tranny was so desperate to cause trouble after he realized it was an old friend groupchay discord

>>12208152I knew there was a reason why I like this guy but it was all sixth sense at first
>>1220863235xx sp android edition and reviving the pap line. The 503 sorta counts but not really.
>>12208595I guess Valve just doesn't feel like there's a rush because they still offer the best value PC handheld, especially considering the current state of Xbox. Maybe they'd feel a need to compete in the Android/ARM handheld scene, but if the Steam Frame is any indication they're doing their own thing.
Why the fuck does Ayaneo still use indiegogo and its phased bullshit?They literally have their own store to do preorders
>>12208756probably has something to do with money but I can't tell you how
Why does 4chan feel more pozzed than Twitter nowadays? People are throwing away the best Android frontend ever made just for some tranny virtue signaling; 2012 4chan would’ve NEVER done something that cringe.

>>12209016Not being able to "get over" someone's voice, in the sense of finding a specific voice persistently bothersome or overwhelming, could be related toauditory sensory sensitivities which are very common in autistic individuals
>>12209016I think he unironically has a voice like that but plays it up for the character and videos

>>12208279I know he's a giant shill, but he's pleasant to watch and still somewhat competent in his reviews. Meanwhile his competitors behave like they're axe wound away from a complete troon out. If I watched these losers rather than the snackman then I'd never get into handhelds because I'd be embarassed to have a hobby like that.
https://x.com/TheGammaSqueeze/status/1994705714833441181Screen fuckery is fixed in GammaOS. Now the question is if they will manage to fix the audio crackling issues. Even if they release it this year I'm still not buying the RG DS at full price. Fuck Anbernig
>>12209115Phawx is fine all things considered, but he was better before companies started sending him review units. Wicked shits on everything while also praising everything, so I dont know where he fits.

>>12209125>Fuck AnbernigTheir "whoops fix it for us" schtick was excusable for a year or two, but got old real quick.They're a big name in the space, and there's absolutely no reason they can't ship a single device without some glaring issue that the 'community' needs to fix for them.
>>12207981Dunno if this is the right place to discuss, but how do you guys feel about mods to original hardware? Looking into the parts available today for the GBA and GBA SP it seems like just about any replacement part you can think of has some sort of drawback or is lower quality than the original. I'm big on preserving the original feel and ergonomics and all that shit and think I'd probably be better off doing a proper paint job on an original handheld than rep[lacing shells and just accept that all the screen """upgrades""" on the market also kind of suck in their own ways.
>>12209474Also they are still going for the whole "let's put paid emus and roms in our shit" despite all the times their yt shills have said it's a no-no. There are so many dumb stuff they do and people continuously tell them to stop but they continue.Maybe Anbernig do need to be humbled hard
>>12209125At least now it’ll be a more attractive device when it goes on sale for $60. But it’s still frustrating how hard Anbernic dropped the ball, I don’t remember many of their recent devices outside of the RG557 at launch having these crippling issues.
>>12209497New parts = not retro

>>12208589>Valve is fairly justified in using a lower resolution panel considering the specs used in the Deck.Nah they could easily make a better panel and still have it be the same price. $600 for such outdated hardware is grossly overpriced. As you said though it's because they know they can get away with it. Same reason why the LCD has only ever been on 20% discount when the Rog Ally and Legion Go have both been at 50%.

>>12209983
Got the RP Mini V2 and after 2+ months of use I'm very happy with it. Gorgeous screen that runs from the top to bottom of the device without bezels, great aspect ratio for pre-widescreen games, enough power to run most PS2 and GCN at 2x (you may have to fiddle with settings), clicky Vita-style D-pad, clacky face buttons, solid D-stick.My only complaints are that the D-sticks are too low and system and make using them painful over time, and the speakers are really shrill.
A little bit offtopic but some people here might be able to help me out.I'm thinking about to buy an android box to use on a TV as an emulation box. Mostly for ps1 games, maybe a little snes. Good idea or nah?
>>12209957ES-DE. It takes some time to set up, but once you do it's easy to port to new devices. The simpler front-ends aren't worth bothering with. Either spend the time with ES-DE for a polished appearance, or just use the regular Android interface and launch the emulator you need.Also, ES-DE is easy to get for free if you don't want to pay
I figured out what was causing few second long lag bursts when using Moonlight/SteamLink on my computer's mobile hotspot. It was that stupid wifi "autoconfig" service that looks for new wifi networks in the background every now and then. Disabling that made shit butter smooth. You just need to enable it if you ever need to connect your computer to another wifi than which it is currently using. My actual home router is dog shit, so streaming through it is impossible, but as long as I'm in the same or adjacent room as my computer, this mobile hotspot thing works well.
>>12210015I used this and it didn't even take long, looks very nice too.
>>12210008>the speakers are really shrillDownload the James DSP soundfix. There’s a profile for the RP Mini. Completely fixes it

people like Joey always make you think “is it even worth interacting with this person or are they just gonna flip over dumb shit” and it becomes the latter usually
Completely serious question. Is there anywhere to freely talk about this hobby, or is everywhere heavily moderated?This board is more heavily moderated than most of 4chan (over 10% of the thread has been deleted so far). And Reddit bans you for saying anything outside the agenda on topics like iiSU.

>>12210124I don't own a single anbernig device. I just think it's silly to single them out when every manufacturer has glaring issues. Retroid, the darling of the community, is unironically just as bad and it wasn't until the RP5 that they kinda got their shit together.
>>12210187retroid being shit doesn't mean you can't point out that anbernic is shit

I hope Ayaneo starts selling their products on their website sooner or later. I can wait since I know I'm going to get my Pocket Air and I've never had shipping issues with anything I bought from them, but it sounds like they're having issues with Indiegogo now or something.
>>12210208sure dude
>>12210014>I'm thinking about to buy an android box to use on a TV as an emulation boxI did that a few years ago with a cheap android box - the chip wasn't strong enough for good PS1 emulation, but everything else was fine. Weirdly enough I hated it because the Android TV OS wasn't good for streaming videos

>>12210434It is way better to curate your collection picking games one by one using a proper catalogue with previews, cover, description, and even comments, such as CDRomance.com Otherwise, google "Tiny Set Archive", the Tiny Sets are good and there are "upgrades" to add more games according to your space. >>12210438It is EXCELLENT, my favourite CFW.OnionOS is equally as good, both are superb, but personally I like MuOS a bit more. >>12210460(S)imply (F)antastic.

>>12211146I mean, can you blame them?2009 4chan was wild, very harsh, but also hilarious, unique, full of creativity, bursting with ingenuity. Now it feels like a mishmash of Twitter and Reddit. The "Cancel Culture" obsession destroyed the internet, political correctness became the real fascism while they hail "Hitler" at you for having an opinion.
>>12211156the site was already cancer by 2009. a lot fucking better than now for sure, but far removed from the real golden era.
>>12211156yeah, but I never thought it would get so bad I'd be nostalgic for the start of the decline
>>12211165I've been told. I was invited by a friend at the very end of 2008, and never left. I understand it started in 2006 but I have seen 2004 as well, I can only imagine how much better it was before all the newfags arrived (me included), it was very Spammy when I got here, but there were A LOT of jewels in the cesspool. Now you seem to get Jewel Shaped Microplastics at best. Like we are left to digest the goop from Reddit, like AI is, forced to be trained on Reddit etiquette, and neurosis. I mean.. the games we played in 2008 are already retro, no? I guess it warrant the nostalgia anyway. The first time we tried that RE4 and that 3D Metroid, it was quite a leap. I guess that is why that infamous launcher was going for the Wii Aesthetic, it is about to be welcomed as retro anytime now, I guess. (please do not shoot me)

>>12210956Based
>>12211041DS games look blurry as shit on 3ds unless you enable pixel perfect mode (select+start when launching a DS game), and on a non-XL model that means they'll look extremely tiny.
I bought a dsi xl bros
>>12211404I love my 35XXSP, the screen is great, except that it's not pixel perfect for GBA games, which made me go crazy once I started noticing the unbalanced pixels.I still use it for portmaster titles, and GB/GBC, and any 4:3 console or arcade machine, but I ended up buying a 34XX for GBA specifically. The 34XX has the exact same amount of pixels in the height, but more in the width, so 4:3 games look great on it as well.The 34XXSP is a bit of a bastard child of the two, but feels off, and the joysticks are a gimmick.
SHOULD I BUY A FUCKING FPGBC OR A GBC
>>12211434WHICH Fpgbc?!
>>12211436the gbc kit they make
>>12211412I recently got myself a pink AGS-101 (the backlit GBA SP), from a seller who didn't know this was a rare model. Was thinking of upgrading my childhood GBA SP with it, but in hindsight I quite like the pretty pink.
>>12211438If input delay is similar to the og console, fuckin get et m8! Load up those two harty potter's rpg's! They're not bad!!
>>12210956Vita. Then it's perfect.
>>12211440very nice, I'll always have a soft spot for the SP as it was my very first handheld I ever had, I hope it serves you well anon
>>12211453I use a vita 3fs and laptop myself. I wanted a deck, but I heard powkiddy was doing an n100 handheld so I waited for that. They pussied out at the last second
>>12211424Thanks for the info. I was either gonna get the RG35XXSP or the RG35XX Pro so either the clamshell on the SP or the sticks on the Pro. They got the same CPU and GPU which is cool. And they're about the same price.But the store only has the black and white Pro so I was leaning towards the SP to get a cooler color. Glad to hear that having sticks is a meme. I'll go for the SP!

what does muos do better than knulli
>>12211567I hear the menu is much more polished and the OS as a whole faster, but personally I'm really big on emulationstation and I think knulli has the better documentation / source build support. MuOS is clobbered together by grabbing binaries from who knows where, but with knulli I can more easily contribute new libretro cores and shit that it doesn't support out of the box.
Is there any "best of" romset for fantasy consoles? Stuff like the PICO-8 and the TIC-80. I want to explore their catalogue a little, seeing as their style of game seems to be a good fit for short sessions.

what duel screen handheld should i buy?
>>12211545That isn’t even a metal Anbernic problem, I had that problem even with my RG40XXV. Whatever adhesives Anbernic uses straight up sucks.
>>12211567Boot times at the cost of some basic frontend functionality.Freeform rom folder structure.Button combos for safe reboot and shutdown, particularly useful when the thing decides to hang up during wifi setup to prevent corruption.Color temperature and universal screenshots.RA settings independent from the frontend's (though it now defaults to tard mode, disallowing overrides until you turn it off).Hotkeys for RA are in line with every other OS and not nonsense.Change established things around every other release for no good reason.Make certain cores optional downloads, while rocking bloat like discord integration(???).Split port files and port shell scripts between two different paths.Take 2 to 3 updates per release to become stable.Assault you with reddit quips during the first boot, then waste your time with paypiggy wall of shame which used to be skippable.On paper it should have been much better, but it's led by some australian assburger known to ignore issues on a whim.
>>122118593ds
can any of these play boktai or warioware twisted without using hacked roms
>>12211156you just came here from gamefaqs like a month ago, the fuck do you know?
I bought a Brick and installed NextUI, and it has completely replaced all of my non-Android handhelds.It sounds obvious, but I've come to realize two features are far more important than everything else in a pocket handheld:>Instant sleep resumeMeaning 1 second, not 15.>Simple OSNo app updates or messing with settings. Boot and launch games.MuOS on Anbernics was my favorite before, but I don't think I can ever go back.
I made this for myself I think some of you here would like it and I am not sure how I am supposed to put it out there:https://github.com/TidiaTDA/artbooknextwaifued
Anyone got any good Knulli Boot screens or know where to find them?
Its like I want a handheld, but I just know from prior experience that few months down the road I get sick of it and end up selling it. I always usually get 1:1 or more what I paid for it, but I wanna get it this time but without breaking the bank. Something that's $200 or below, maybe even $100 range. I was looking at R36T, it looks gimmicky and its cheap and not something I would resell anyways because of the price.
Does anyone know the Retroid shipping time to EU? I was thinking of getting a Retroid Pocket G2 and I was wondering if there's a chance it arrives before christmas.
>>12212073Same. I hated most sub-$100 Linux handhelds because the cfws were always buggy and not actually that good but the Brick + NextUI has made me love it more than even Android.
>>12212108Nice, thanks for sharing.
Is a Retroid G2 powerful enough to run most PS2 games and older with a decent CRT filter on, or should I wait for the Retroid Pocket 6? They look to be the same price. Does it come with emulators set up already? Are there game packs out there, like those shitty consoles I see on ads that supposedly include 10k+ games and nice menus to select a platform + game?
>>12212393>Is a Retroid G2 powerful enough to run most PS2 games and older with a decent CRT filter on, or should I wait for the Retroid Pocket 6? They look to be the same price.Even the RP5 is capable of that. I'd wait for the 6 for the better screen and back buttons, but the G2 is plenty for PS2 and down if you want to buy something today. >. Does it come with emulators set up already?First time setup prompts you to download some popular emulators, but you can just grab them from the app store or sideload them. It's android so it's pretty customizable.
>>12212393>powerful enough to run most PS2 games and older with a decent CRT filterEven the Pocket 5 can do this, especially anything below PS2.>Does it come with emulators set up already?No. Think Android phone or tablet where you need to install the apps you want yourself. It's a blank slate.>Are there game packs out thereThere are ROM packs. Tiny Best Set is a good example you can look up.>nice menus to select a platform + game?You want to look into what's called a "frontend." Daijishou and Beacon are easier to set up. ES-DE is another with more features but more setup complexity. You combine a frontend with ROMs (games) and emulator apps (such as RetroArch or DuckStation) for the full experience. If this sounds intimidating, skip the frontend and start with RetroArch and a few ROMs, and follow a setup guide video while you do it. Add the frontend after you manage to get a game running.
>>12212471Anyone know how well the current lineup of Retroids handle N64 emulation? Does it run Mupen64plus on Retroarch with ParaLLel plugin well? What about with shaders too?
>>12211859Thor
>>12212645N64 emulation is sadly still N64 emulation
>>12212014Some of the midrange ones have gyros, I think there's a filter on https://retrocatalog.com/ for them. Can confirm Warioware twisted works fine with the RG505 gyros.For boktai can't you set the light sensors to L3/R3?
>>12212671Probably because all 40 games that are worth playing are already playable through other means.
>>12212393G2 is for retards. Give it a few months to see if the RP6 isn't a dud. >>12212645Apparently no phone can handle ParaLLEl well due to lacking proper Vulkan extensions. I've found Dimensity 8300 Ultra (Anbernic's high end pick) to be really bad at it and while Mali's basically the worst case scenario for GPU compatibility, I take Adreno isn't much better off from the lack of reports and footage on Snapdragons.
>>12212073>>12212305We need Valve to hurry up and release a public version of Steam OS on ARM to free us from this Android hell. I hate Android so fucking much it's unreal. I'll buy literally whatever chinkheld has the chip Steam OS will support.
>>12210591ps3 Xmb is fucking awful and i hate navigating settings using thatEven Wii U got got a better UI, and it's literally just an iphone UI
>>12208315Odin 2He made multiple videos about it, inlcuding talking about how much he loves it>>12209115He made a video telling people not to get AYANEO Pocket DMG cheaper variants because the plastic is actually different than the premium version, something AYANEO themeselves never disclosed with him, but also not get the premium variants because it's overkillhttps://youtu.be/v-3DP9UC-CYSo i fail to see how he's a shill
>>12212889>Odin 2Would be perfect if not for the awful screen.
What are the odds of Retroid or another brand releasing an improved detachable screen? I like the concept but their first iteration seems clunky.
>>12210853You don't even need a computer to set up Retroid. I've been using USB C flash drive like pic related to transfer files by downloading them on my phone, then plug the flashdrive to my phone and transfer my files there, and then plug it to my Retroid and transfer my files to itBut you're better off getting a micro SD card if you're gonna play 5th gen stuff and beyond since they take up so much space, and also so you can have easy access to your game data and use it on multiple devices
>>12212920why wouldn't you just download the files on the retroid? it runs android too
>>12212920Just use localsend, what the fuck.

WHY IS ANDROID EMULATION STILL SHITTIER THAN PC AND LINUX WHEN MOST OF THE WORLD USES IT
>>12213082Because it's younger. Pc and Linux were emulating before android was a thing, but android emulators are bready gud. Considering they're free and devs put years of their lives into them for us to enjoy them, id say you're being a spoiled little brat about it. You could always make one yourself
>>12212801Aside from official ports and PC ports, what other means are there? AFAIK OG Paper Mario is N64 only and the official NSO+ emulatior is still shaky
>>12213082Android is a piece of shit unreliable everchanging OS with equally bad hardware and drivers and all serious devs are driven insane trying to get real software to run on it.
>>12213082Because Android truly sucks. I'm posting this from my Samsung Galaxy. If it didn't have newpipe and ad blocking, I wouldn't use it. I had one Android handheld and didn't like it. The RG505.
>>12212898the odin 2 portal

Is the base model good enough or should I go for the Pro model? I'm not sure what would be my emulation limit with 8gb of ram

>>12213206Bwo, your Powkiddy?
>>12213226My 35xxsp is still fine
>>12213232that's nice
>>12213226Flip is Retroid...
>>12212889He's mostly a retroid/ayn shill. He never has anything bad to say about them and even when he does he downplays it a lot like saying how the input lag on the Thor for 3DS isn't bad (it's very bad). When pressed he just excuses it by saying it doesn't affect him much.
>>12213253shit you right
>>12211273how much??
>>12213045Neo Geo isn't about playing games, it's about paying absurd money for shelf display items.
playing sly racoon on my odin 2 portal, anyone else playing games
>>12213258Yet he overreacted like RGDS was useless, when the lag was eco-mode to begin with. He is obviously bribed one way or another, amenities if he is a cheap whore (freebies such a one free device of each colour of each model), or an actual check if he is an actual influence mercenary.
Can't decide if I want to get the 40XXH or wait for the TSP S
Give it to me straight is Ayn and Retroid the same company? Same office, employees and everything? You can still be separate companies with a parent company and I know about Moorechip but I want to know the truth.
>>12213424I mean, according to Neocons both companies are literally Xi Jinping with different shirts. Are they the same segment of the market?Maybe they are under the same parent going for different segments, but being under the same parent and competing for the same segment... I mean.. it is interesting, very antimonopolic and great for consumers benefiting from the innovation that comes with true competition, let alone competitive pricing. Who knows what secret incentives they have, like the need of moving obsolete or surplus components fast, that might factor into their overall benefit, and that fall out of our knowledge to properly judge their operations and motivations-objectives.
>>12213429Doesn't it feels great to be in a hobbyist the mercy of shady Chinese companies shipping illegal ROMs and responding to unknown incentives like getting cheap shipments of whatever parts they can scrounge up
>>12213445Oy Vey!! We must tariff them 1999.99%!!!In the name of Free Market! They are Le Shady.
Good Linux CFW > Android > Shitty Linux CFW.Android is like the baseline of what every OS should be aiming for, if you can't make your cfw better than Android at least, then don't even bother.
>>12211434neither, just get a $30 android chinkheld if all you want to play is GBC.
Any devices I should fomo into because of ram and memory prices?64gb SD cards are like $15 on aliexpress now, they were $3 a few weeks ago lol
>>12211494there is no universe where those joysticks are comfortable to use.
>>12212014only way youre playing boktai without a hacked rom is with the original cartridge. for twisted anything with gyro will work great.

>>12210589>hard "R" logoanbernig is truly based beyond belief
>>12213613Now that you mention it, I never understood why the logo is an R, but I never noticed it actually has a "G" inside, not a "C". Is Anbernig not a slur, but a local joke? **benis**

>>12213224i'd get the based model personally, i don't see any reason to get the pro model beyond different colors
>>12213535Then just get an original Gameboy Color and swap in an IPS screen or something and use it with a flash cart.
>>12213224Do you want to emulate switch/ps3?If no, 8gb is fine. If yes, the extra ram will help but the experience will still be limited for some games.

>>12213718don't care waiting for the portal
>>12213658that vid made me lose NNN
>>12213716The idea of an ARM device emulating PS3 and Switch is still mind blowing to me.
>>12213804The ps3 may have the overdesigned cell, but its still '06 technology, and moore's law died over a decade after that. The Switch is literally a ARM chip that came from the same cpu family as the nvidia shield.
>>12213718don't care waiting for the mini
>>12213718>retroids are literally chinese bombs devised to kill americans in their own homes>odins letting you directly bypass the battery when plugged in to retain battery life and reduce heatayn just cant stop winning
>>12214007least retarded retrayn buyer
>>12214071retroid and ayn are owned by the same company but operate separately like how everything in America is owned by 2 or 3 companiesIt's like Retroid is Burger King and AYN is Popeyes
>>12214094according to them
>>12214096im sure the dogshit retroid bombs are made in the same factory as the superior odin devices that's why there's so many reports of Odins blowing up and falling apart
>>12214108LMAOOOOOOOOOOOleast retarded retrayn shill
>console war fagging over chinese e-waste suppliersI cant even fathom this level of mental illness
>>12214114post a picture of a odin exploding when plugged into a generic phone charger please
>>12214116I will just laugh at the thor exploding instead
Should I get a Mangmi Air X? 89.99 seems like a steal for the device.
>>12214249yeah if you wanna play lots of psp
>>12214115it's actually a new low for the internet
So what's the smallest comfortable device? I travel a lot and wouldn't mind a small companion device for gaming. I wouldn't need anything more than PS1, after that I'd probably just use my computer.
so how long before the mini v2 and rp4p disappear from the slopdroid site
>>12214391i think the magic x 28 is pretty comfy but if that's too small I'd say just any cheaper anbernic like the cubexx or rg35xxh if you want something smaller
>>12214119post a picture
>>12214551post ass
It's uphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEmThOmbWEo
>>12213224>>12213658Why would you get the base model when all the other versions use the Snapdragon 2?
>Your parcel has been assigned to a delivery driver13 days still no pocket flip but soon
>>12214816I guess that anon just wants to save money and only plans on using it for nothing more than 3DS emulation.
Picked up a GPD Win 5 and it's actually kinda crazy that games can run like this on a handheld.>>12214818is that the one with the faulty hinge? seems like all chink handhelds have a hinge issue that Nintendo solved over 20 years ago
>>12214551show bobs and vagene
>>12214835some colors did at release but they fixed it and no issues so far. hope it doesn't happen again but worse case they've replaced all defective units
>RG 476H $150is this the best price/perf for 4:3 strictly PS1 and N64 emulation?
>>12208069dolphin bar makes it pretty plug and play
>>12215076Nyar.
anyone have experience using the retroid dock for multiplayer? Is it mostly plug and play so long as you have the controllers or do you have to do a lot of reconfiguring?
>>12215090I do.
>>12208764I sure as fuck haven't given up on it, if they show some decent progress I'll definitely donate. For now I'm just using the skin on es-de though since that's about as smooth as you're doing to get
IT'S OUT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEmThOmbWEo
>>12209957ES-DE with iisu skin>>12210052getting everything going with the scraper and making sure the emulators are hooked up can be a pain, much more seamless if you're starting out with it rather than migrating to it though
I can't believe the Thor hinge hysteria was really just Aya Neo shills all along
>>12215091does it work out of the box fairly well or do you have to reconfigure for multiple controllers? I assume dolphin takes a bit of fucking around
>>12215114:^3
>>12215091>>12215120What do people get out of being a dipshit like this? Is it just a way of telling the person to research elsewhere?
>>12215076No, but you sure won't find another screen better for 4:3 for now.
>>12213082Because devs develop on pc, and it's a fucking chore to port shit to android afterwards.It's literally easier to port emulators to console homebrew.
>>12208090>>12215083I'll be honest I never knew that they made specific peripherals for PC like that. Thanks for the rec.
>>12215109the retroid hinge took 6 months. see you in 20 weeks
>>12214606>>12214838>still no pictureguess it doesn't happen then
>>12215105Eh these things are all the same nowadays.
>>12215230>Eh these things are all the same nowadays.we did it reddit!
>>12215231I don't know what that has to do with reddit. Is that something they wanted?
>>12215236it's a bot, don't reply to it
>>12215236yes, look at how kino the rp6 was supposed to be
>>12215135You can also just use 2 candles
>>12215271that's the sort of setup that really fucking sucks.
I bought RP6
>>12215271You can, and is a good option for an emergency, but it can get messy having fire and hot wax near electronics. But yeah, for a short gaming session with unexpected visits, unable to order a cheap antenna; then a couple of those tiny round candles that heat aroma diffusers are a good option, just dont place them too close to the screen, nor on top of it, if they fall it will be a mess on the screen.
>>12215296you don't need to use chatgpt to comment on everything, bro
>>12215160>6 monthsThat's the rule of thumb for all these pos chinkhelds. GPD hinges have the same lifespan. Unfortunately we don't have Nintendo-level quality assurance with handheld hinges anymore.
>>12215271Everyone knows this and everyone would rather not if they don't have to.
>>12215160And the Aya Neo hinges?
>>12215271the thing that makes the dolphin bar good is that it actually helps parse data from the wiimotes for your emulator
>>12215340Wait I thought you meant a passive USB Wiimote IR Bar. Whats is a Dolphin bar then?
>>12215348More expensive.
>>12215348dolphin bar has the lights built in but it also synchs to the bluetooth of the wiimotes and passes it through to the emulator, can help a lot with some devices that have a hard time synching to wiimotes
>>12215383Oh ok ok, it turns the bluetooth data into USB delivered data... makes sense specially for computers with weaker cards, or laptops with the infamous mediatek wireless cards that disconnect a lot.
I bought a retroid pocket g2. those chinks better ship it fast
receiving a R36S soon, is portmaster easy to use if you have no wifi on it? Can I copy games from my Steam folders and GOG's into the device? I do have an old USB 2.4GHz dongle from a decade ago and an adapterI want to play Deus Ex on it and other games from that era such as HL games and the old Hitman trilogy would be nice
someone explain to me why the rg ds screen desync is an issue if I'm not going to play anything that requires it
>>12215603>getting a duel screen handheld to not use the duel screen?
>>12215618To be fair an awful lot of DS and 3DS games used the bottom screen for mostly static shit like menus where it won't make a very noticeable difference
>>12215603imagine willingly letting yourself get chinked
>>12215648> Imagine willingly making your battery last longer.Imagine disabling Eco-Mode in power settings.
>>12215594>is portmaster easy to use if you have no wifi on it?you'll need to rely on whatever the stock SD card has (ha!) or use the dongle. The games will have install instructions in portmaster on what files to copy and where
>>12215542>>12214818
>>12215698>A UniUni driver has delivered your package. Please check your front door or mail room (if applicable).
>>12214816you're thinking of the lite model which has the sd865. the base, pro, and max versions all have the 8gen2 cpus.
>>12215594Should have grabbed a r36xx instead, they were under $15 during the sales.
>>12215716
>>12215167post bussy
>>12215723>nov2025
>>12215732there is no charging indicator
>>12212471>>12212473>>12212848Thanks a lot, friends.
i forgot how slow HDDs are
>>12215670Alright, thanks. PC games will be optional>>12215721Maybe for Americans, got my R36S for $38 CAD including shipping
As an 'eck haver I'm not sure if I'll ever get a chinaheld
>>12215849>tyoed on his made in china phone sitting in his made in china chair
Weird post
>>12215853Phone & Chair are both vietnam thoughbeit
>>12215870i kneel
>>12215849I've gone for chinahelds just because I prefer an actual handheld over console-lite stuff you need a backpack for like the switch or steam deck. I just can't register them as 'handhelds' mentally when they don't fit in your hand
>text guide last updated 6 months ago requires watching the video guide created 11 months ago even though there's a video guide update 2 months ago
>>12215853yes
>have every rom for every system on pc because tism and 24tb hdds>need to curate list for handheldfucking kill me
dreamcast>crazy taxi>jet set radio>power stone>sonic adventure>spawn in the demon's handany other must haves?
>>12216203shenmue 1 & 2 (make sure to get the PAL versions of both so you can transfer your save data from 1 to 2)
>>12215337That requires someone buying an Ayaneo clamshell to find out.
>>12216201if you have a 1/2tb microsd you should be able to store basically every good/interesting game on every console it can handle, besides maybe some switch stuff
>>12216201>>12216201Start all over, using CDRomance.com, only for the games you truly want to play. Dont treat it like you must set it up for the rest of your life at once, just imagine it is an actual console, and go window shop games in lots of 5 to CDRomance, everyday, watch MetalJesusRocks videos or other guys talking about hidden gems or best games per console, to help you decide what to get each day, that way you can even curate the cover art one by one, slowly, choosing which is best (usually japanese art) from https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com (they have many many different covers, cartrdiges, and boxes to choose from).
>>12216201Don't let setup and file management turn into the hobby, unless that's what you want.>If it's a simple pocket device like a Brick or XX:Load a very small list of things you actually want to play. I mean small, 20 titles per system max, ideally less. Games you can name off the top of your head that you want to play right now.>If it's a powerful device like an OdinGet a 2TB microSD card and load full ROM sets for the lightweight stuff. You can curate Switch and PlayStation ROMs with the space you have left.And if either of those scenarios is still too much to figure out, get the base Tiny Best Set for now and figure the rest out later. I can say from experience that it's a much better use of time to start with a few games and curate as you go, than to waste days and weeks setting up systems you will never play.
>>12216203it has the best version of mr driller, plus Twinkle Star Sprites and Radirgy if you like shmups (although you'll need the tl for the latter)
>>12216216vimm's has a slightly more complete library than CDR, might be worth it to browse there and look up any unfamiliar names
>>12216236You should be on private trackers anyways, using ROM sites is deprecated behaviour.
>>12216203>jet set radioyou know if the US or Euro version is better? I know there are some soundtrack changes
>>12216205added>>12216212512gb, trying to keep it to 10 per console to minimize decision paralysis but a couple console have 15-20>>12216216i was playing a ton of retro rereleases on steam and got into phone emulation but hated it so picked up a handheld. while waiting for it to ship i went through and grabbed every pre-ps2 rom and dumped them on my NAS. got es-de setup on my pc but only copied over the game i was currently playing so now that the handheld arrived i'm doing what you suggested and only picking games i want to play (skipped gamegear entirely so far)>>12216225it's a pocket flip 2 and i have a 512gb, 10-20 per console is what i'm going for>>12216243i have both jet set radio (eu/jp) and jet grind radio (us) and it looks like the us version has some extra content but yeah there were some soundtrack changes. i'll have to see which is the definitive version before i hope in
>>12216236Both complement each other, indeed.I like CDRomance because they have covers, previews and comment section, where sometimes important issues are addressed such as in ROMHacks and ROMFanTranslations in which you might want to know if there is a bug, or soft lock, etc...But yeah, VIMM is pretty solid as well.
>>12216247try to stick with what you're immediately interested and add more later, getting more games going is pretty seamless anyways. Also use CHDroid to combine multiple disc files (.bin and .cue) it compresses them and makes them easier to work with
>>12216252CDR also has a much broader variety of pre-patched translations (and undubs if you're into that), I just mention vimms because I've been shopping around again recently and noticed how many gaps they fill in
gb>Castlevania II>Darkwing Duck>Donkey Kong Land 1-3>Final Fantasy Legend 1-3>Kirby's Dream Land 1-2 + Pinball>Link's Awakening>Pokemon Yellow>Super Mario Land 1-2>Tetris>Wario Land 1-2lots of gb nostalgia>>12216254i didn't know you could do that, i'll check it out and cdromance
>>12216270I only found out about it since getting es-de to display games in that format correctly is near-impossible otherwise
>>12216203Resident Evil Code VeronicaGrandia II
>>12216260100%
new thread>>12216280
>>12216275i was told to play code veronica on GC because of widescreen hacks, is there a reason to play on dreamcast? also im currently playing the FF remasters on steam and loving the series, is the grandia series worth it or should i pick and choose games?
