the Twilight Princess android port is working perfectly on the RG505
Angled asymmetric buttons still winning.

>>12561979the price of that is insane atm, I could get a 406h or 556 for cheaper
Recommend a good metal handheld
>>12562060where are you looking? Anbernic store is: RG406H - $150RG556 - $170RG505 - $110
>>12562060you can also get a RP4P for $150 right now
>>12562092aliexpress, european prices the 505 is 160+on anbernic's website is cheaper but not by a lot because of taxes + shipping
>>12561990broken diamond buttons are a poor idea thoughbeit
>>12562109Is this the consensus here though or just you?
>>12562114I don't know if you have a blind spot, but the bits in red are fucked
>>12562107that's a bit nuts, I love my RG505 but it definitely isn't worth more than the others
>>12562135*further if you do have a blind spot due to a neurological condition or something I'll shut up about it
Miyoo Flip v2.1 supremacy >perfect fixed hinge>adjust cpu from "performance" to "on demand" so it doesn't draw 1.4Ghz to play games so you can play gba for 6 hours for example. Ask chatgpt.>perfect screen size so you can put your shiny sp logo unlike 34xxspNow wait for the seethers and copers crying about this post.
>>12562157You autism is showing heavily, and since I don't need your whining. I'm not going to rise to it.If you're having trouble understanding it's simple. A spoiled nin-cum-shit wouldn't fucking get the FACT that the buttons, however unconventionally shaped. Are NOT in fact unusable. They are by design tactile and indexable while fitting in the shell. If your situation doesn't lend itself to comprehending this. Then you are the one who is fucked.Maybe you're grieving over the dead parents that clearly didn't love you. Or at least had no time for your moronic behaviour. Whatever the case, I have some sympathy. But you WILL not have your way in this one way conversation. I just won't humour you. The buttons work. They feel fine. And the design is working exactly as intended. Your retarded for thinking otherwise. And I won't waste any more time talking to you.
>>12562164Did they at least fix how washed out the screen is yet? If the hinge meme has been deboonked on the newer batches, the only thing holding me back is how much I prefer the saturation on my 34XXSP.
>>12562170you could have saved time and gotten sympathy by saying you were retarded
It emulates psp and ps1 so well <3
>>12562107I assume RG-505 is just not produced/sold anymore so you're mostly getting it from 3rd party resellers in EU? The 405M costs 105€ and normally there isn't a 50% price difference for the same chipset.
>>12562286it's the official store on aliexpress but yea probably because there's no more stock coming after it's gone
>>12562164can you show us your miyoo flip instead of reusing images from the internet posted by others?
>>12561706I was trying upper and lower case just to see if that was an issue. I have the OG disc so I'll grab the file off of that. Also, I'll upgrade to a bigger card. Is 64GB too much? I have an option between an HP or a Sandisk and was going to go with the Sandisk. I could use an 8GB card if 64GB is too much. I'll probably get to it today. Thanks for your helo and knowledge, Diablo on a handheld would be so much fun. Although I've found that as irritating and annoying it can be sometimes, it's the thrill of the chase, of getting a game to work that I enjoy the most. Even more than actually playing the game lol. Right now I'm trying to get this IRC client to cooperate but I'll get back on diablo.
>>12562409No, size starts becoming a problem at 256GB IIRC.
>>12562225The Vita is one of the sexiest handhelds ever made and I’m realizing that a 5.5 inch screen is kind of the perfect sweet spot. I don’t need my 'handhelds' to be cartoonishly huge.
Is it pointless buying a Miyoo Flip or rg35xxsp if I have a Miyoo Mini + and Thor?Kinda just like how the rg35xxsp looks in the clear case colours desu. Doesnt seem enough reason to buy one though.
>>12562504it's pointless, yes
>>12562504Its your money nigga
>>12562484which chinkhelds have the same screen size?
>>12562504Unless you plan on replacing the MM+ with either of those, yes it would be pointless.
>>12562691Retroid Pocket 5/6 is probably the most similar to the Vita.
>>12562832>what is Anbernic RG Vita Pro
Handhelds peak here
>>12560037Miyoo Mini Plus-sized version of RG40XXV but comes with a hall effect stick instead and 4GB of RAM instead of 1GB. I don't care if it the battery is mediocre or they need to make it thick in the rear, as long as it is Miyoo Mini Plus-sized. Give me a tiny vertical handheld that can do 3D comfortably, AnbernicBasically a vertical handheld that is an ultra compact but also somewhat powerful enough for running high-end fifth-gen systems fairly well.
>>12563000Essentially a Game Console My Mini, but premium
>>12562484The Vita screen is 5 inches, not 5.5.
>>12561531It's kinda ugly, but exactly what you're looking for.>>12562484Same the Odin 2 mini has shit tier batteries that bloat quickly. Ayn could've used different batteries, but their response was to cancel it.
Don't believe his lies, mini sissies.
Rate my retroid
>>12563143bing/wahoo
>>12562484Wrong
>>12563191Why does this exist? Too much screen wtf I guess JNCOs are coming back but sheesh
>>12563143Pedo/10
What's the cheapest handheld that can properly handle SNES expansion chip games?>read the spreadsheetI tried. It's a mess.
>>12563198>3D display to play perfect 3DS/Virtual Boy/3D 2010 era movies>Large size to play AAA Steam with native 3D ports.>Legion/Deck dual track pad and separating mouse controllers >AI converts retro games and unsupported games to 3D.>Docks into a keyboard to become a laptop for 3D photoshop Its an everything machine.
Unironically, for me it's the Powkiddy V10. Installed a simple menu theme, use basic games list view, and just play games on it. It's better then why Anbernic device I've ever used, and I think I like it more than the miyoo mini plus. Thank you for reading my blog.
>>12560037Behold, the fixed version!>put speakers in front instead of back. as a side-effect it makes the display 4:3>while it is open, the 4:3 display makes perfect sense considering the content you can play (PSP, PS1, N64). while it is closed, the 3:4 display is much better for Android navigation than 1:1. it's a win-win.>make it 15% bigger in both dimensions to get some extra space and keep the display roughly the same (3.5in)>extra space allows you to: add a PSP-style analog stick, add a 3.5mm jack, have a bigger battery>make a more expensive model that supports SIM cards to finally sell it to the couple of hundred autismos who keep screaming "why are rotate and slide not phones!?"This is my job application to Anbernic.
>>12563243
>>12563123This shit looks ugly AND uncomfortable, usually it's only one or the other.
>>12563243>ePSXe
>>12563243everything but portable
Does anyone talk about dragonbox anymore or is that just retarded
>>12563252That looks and sounds like shit.
>>12563252Animate it.
>>12563353Dyel
>>12563386function > formAlso, of course it looks like shit, that's 1 minute of paint.exe work. The speaker grills look like ass because I copied them from the gray 34xxsp. Throw it at an AI if you want it to look better.
>>12563406I’m sorry, let me rephrase that. Your ideas for this handheld fucking suck.
>>12561979has someone with a GPDXD+ tried that yet? if not, im planning to check it out later today.
>>12563249what cfw are you using on it?
>>12563420Those changes would actually sell the Rotate instead of it being DOA.
>>12563405what the fuck
>>12563243>>12563405All you need is a relatively small 4:3 screen. Why do they keep making them bigger oh my god. Please stopIt's just a TV with half an xbox controller plugged into each side. We've almost gone full circle into just making PCs
just when you think performative posting can't get any worse
Azahar needs an LCD shader or something. Pixelart in JRPGs looks way too sharp on the Thor screen.
gonna sound retarded but does using a core like mgba over gpsp effect battery life on XX devices? my shit gets kinda hot with mgba
>>12564027Yes, mgba is more taxing.
>>12563143>runs fantasy lifeKinda jelly not gonna lie.
>>12564027If I remember right gpSP vs. mGBA is like DeSmuME vs. Melon DS. So you're getting less accuracy but a better chance to emulate stuff vs accuracy but it being more taxing.
Damn bros I really want this new Anbernic rotate thing.
>>12564086It would be cool for mp3 player enthusiasts if it had a fucking headphone jack.
>>12564091No, you actually want your own USB-C dongle for actual good quality instead.
Dusk isn't working on the MagicXZero 28, I was curious
>>12564118I'm curious about this port, but I literally just finished replaying TP on dolphin a week ago, so it's too much of a pain in the ass to set up and not play it.
>>12564126set up for it is surprisingly easy, but yeah it is a 'play every few years' kind of game
>>12563987why do you need handhelds in Japan, don't the tourist areas have literal huge arcades like everywhere
got a retarded questioni want to get a stylus for my o2p so i can play some 3ds gamesdoes any stylus work?
>>12564250Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure any capacitive stylus would work fine.
>>12564270yeah ok i ordered one of those with the round rubber tipwas kind of confused since there was active pens aswell but i found a video from one of the emulation niggas and it didnt seem to matter also whats fucked up is that nintendo made a stylus for the switch but only ever released it in japan
>>12563405Is this real? It makes my setup look portable.
>>12562105I love my retroid pocket 4. I just wish it had grips on the back to hold on to like the rp5. No glass front is nice tho. Nearly a perfect handheld.It also needs some way to capture controller rumble signals and pass them on to the phone rumble motor, but thats minor.
The Mangmi Air X is nearly perfect form factor wise, but boy did they drop the ball on specs.
>>12564423Everyone is trailing behind Retroid pretty much. Also they are the only ones who have seemed to figure out how to fix cardinal snapping without having to spend time putting a new OS on your device>>12564086Get the clamshell first if you haven't already. Retro doodads always have issues in the first batches that get fixed later down the line. Word is that some Rotates are becoming slightly misaligned
>>12564431I hate how they put back paddles on the the RP6. Back paddles as a concept need to die. I dont want buttons on the handle of the controller. I dont want to be pressing buttons just trying to hold on to the thing.
>>12562504>rg35xxsp197g>miyoo flip165g>miyoo mini106gyou will 100% feel the difference
>>12563252>put speakers where the bezels for the screens go, presumably with some kind of wire to connect it to the board>stick an analog stick where the battery presumably isi'm starting to think that none of you understand how chinkhelds workl
>>12564464no shit, we start with "What would I like?" instead of "What can we do with this warehouse full of old phone screens and rockchips?"
>>12564115>coping this hardNobody actually cares about perfect quality when listening to music. People who even know what a DAC is let alone use one are a minority among chronic audio listeners.
Honestly even though I like the Ayn Thor I still find myself gravitating towards my DSi XL more. That bottom screen on the Thor is just way too cucked.
i have a new brick hammer and i wanted to use the function keys and the side switch for macros and other functions am i only allowed to rebind them on the stockOS? i cant find an option to use them on knulli
>>12564118Really cool that decompilation projects have reached gamecube games. Hope there's more advancements in the area and we end up with native ports of loads of ps2 games too.
>>12564714>Ayn ThorCan that run daggerfall unity or do I have to wait to see that on a handheld?
>>12562164>twin sticks on a gba sp shell
>>12564795>nooo it needs to be an EXACT clone!
>>12564502MP3 player enthusiasts care, retard.>>12564431I don't think I'm getting any. Looks like a neat device that I'll just never use. I have a DSi LL after all. These handhelds are such bait. There's hundreds of them and they all look cool.
>>12564813>MP3 player enthusiasts careNo they don't. You can get a better MP3 player the size of a cigarette.
>>12564817Yes they do.
>>12564795And it LOOKS AWESOME YOU FAGGOT BOOMER GET WITH THE TIMES
>>12564456Stop being fat.
True, true.
>>12565126what makes anbernic nintendo?

So I've never had a OLED device before. How it important is that gay little OLED pixel protector swipe thing? If I turn it off is game ui going to fry into the screen?
>>12565183Not unless you keep it on the same static content at all times 24/7.
magic x two dream pro will be the endgame

Anyone else hate playing anything past 5th gen on these things? I keep buying powerful ones thinking I'll play some PS2 games but I just end up back on my laptop hooked up to my big TV instead or just playing on my laptop screen. I think anything less than an eight inch 4:3 screen is too small for the latter day retro systems. as a result I have sold my RP6 and am just left with a Retroid Classic and a RG34XXSP and that seems like all I'd ever need
>>12565251No? I'm having tons of fun playing PS2 on my 4-inch 4:3 screen and I could probably even go a little smaller without being bothered by it>RP6RP6 is not 4:3, it is 16:9, which is widescreen and garbage for PS2 games, which are natively 4:3. You seem to be confused
>>12565291Why do spergs seethe so hard about letterboxing, it's not that deep lolAlso serious games are not meant for handhelds that's why I prefer even psx games on my monitor much less ps2
>>12565291>>12565291I just find that past the 5th gen the worlds created are more detailed and immersive that they deserve to be on a bigger screen as opposed to the SNES or NeoGeo where everything is clear and bright That you dont miss much playing on a tiny screen. Probably just a mental thing for me but every time I tried to play Wind Waker or whatever on my 477M which I also sold I thought what the hell am even doing and switch to my laptop which I also travel with.
>>12565126Retroid is the Playstation (best performance and quality, no issues like red ring of death)Anbernic is the Xbox (very reminiscent ergonomics in several of their devices).MagicX is actually turning out to be the third of the big three. They are Nintendo. Every device they release is a fucking banger and serves another niche the other two companies are too headstrong to produce. It seems that whoever is making decisions at their company actually plays games or at least reads comments and knows exactly what to do and what not to do when making a new handheld. I am very impressed by them. They even have a device for playing DS games specifically (the Zero 40).AYN IS just Retroid, they are both owned by Moorechip, and the Odin is just their premium alternative to the RP6, and AYN's whole purpose is to be more premium. They aren't competitors, but complements. Miyoo is Sega. They make one amazing product, the Mini (Genesis), but can't evolve or think of anything else to do to separate themselves, so they become forgotten.Ayaneo is Apple lmao. At least it feels that way to pretty much everyone.
>>12565251The fuck am I reading here? Gen 6 consoles were basically 480p machines. They look great on 4-6 inch displays. It's only gen 7 and later that start being bad, but I personally don't care about anything gen 7 and later aside from the handhelds.
>>12565312Because it's not letterboxing, it's pillarboxing. There are several reasons it is stupid. But the main one is that it reminds you you could have just gotten a smaller and more nimble device that doesn't have dead black space on the sides if you didn't sperg out and buy something that can run modern consoles AND retro platforms just because you were too ADHD to choose one or the other.Here's how they look compared.
>>12565321You might want to get a more expensive device that has higher pixel density. That can help tremendously
>>12565346It doesn’t matter.
>>12565251nah I feel you on that anything past dreamcast just feels lame on a handheld. Getting the omni device feels like a lost cause for these devices, better to get something pocketable which plays a few select platforms really well
>>12565360It does matter, and excessive pillarboxing is distracting and drives me insane. The meta has pretty much always been the same: one super powerful device for modern widescreen content, and a small, squarish 4:3 or 1:1 device for older games. You will notice pretty much every youtuber has subconsciously adopted this setup for their EDC, and there is a valid reason for it. Trying to shoehorn games onto screens they aren't built for feels awful to play. There's no way around it unless Anbernic starts smoking the good stuff this year and makes a device with an extendable screen.
>>12565346I will admit that Gamecube games looked good on the 477M but the loud shoulder buttons and the whistling fan were too distracting, and PS2 I got tired of dealing with the fractured mess of PCSX2 Android development, would rather just use a laptop and use the real deal
