Has anyone tried running the RG34XXSP muOS build on the RG SP? Did you run into any issues, or does it work perfectly?
>>12816470PWM has nothing to do with "muh tired eyes" but the pupils contracting from 60 to 100 times per minute while looking at the screen.Good oleds use dc dimming and your eyes are safe from constantly getting flashed.For some reason there will always be a faggot who has never done any research and the same way he/she defends corporate companies and specific groups they will also defend all the oled screens they bought no matter if they have pwm or dc dimming.Retardation truly is bliss. Pizza and monster drinks everyday is definitely an enlightening combination of the wise kind.
>>12816967looks like issues
now that cdromance is going full AI, i reported spike to nintendo lol
>>12817057What do you mean, what happened
>>12817057>i reportedChild and woman behavior
Now that the dust has settled... is the Nova all that it's cracked up to be?
>>12817151Not as cracked up as your MOM
>>12817151it's fine but it was hyped up for no real reason
>>12817151I really like mine.The size is great for the power.
>>12817151That's pointless compared to the Duo. The bottom half of the Duo is literally a Nova.
>>12817186Yeah, with a 10th of the power. Kek.
>>12817186the appeal of the nova is the lack of bloat. duo is peak bloat
>>12817192Almost all the powerful stuff is 16:9 tho. I know there are patches and hacks but that defeats the purpose of the Nova which is all about native aspect ratio.
>>12817151Needs the thumbsticks pushed into the screen, so you're controlling it through the screen.
>>12817186Without the ergonomic Batma™ curves.
>>12815398Talk me out of getting the 6 button Classic bros. It’s real tempting
>Dweeb has bigger hands than RussHoly shit lol
>>12817318Endgame anon here, as much as I love six buttons, they're gonna be uncomfortable on a vertical handheld.Some of these designers really fuck the consumer when they shit out a design. And I don't think Retroid is always an exception. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3MKHlRco9IYou pay twice they say..
>>12817327Tech Dweeb works out man.
>>12817327Do you think his hands were enough to please the navy guys when he was serving, or was he bottoming only?
>>12817328>posting videos of vaporwave "handhelds"
>>12817342Yeah, they still cost money though.
>>12817339Like chimney sweeps, he's smol and can get up into tight places. Probably was cleaning the rail gun barrel duty.
>>12817151>didn't get ruined by non-playing tech illiterate retards demanding a weaker chip>didn't get ruined by semites demanding glass front>didn't get ruined by imbeciles demanding stick top>grip is even thicker than previous modelsMy only regrets are poor color options and the lack of 256GB storage, it's perfect otherwise.
>>12817057Wow you are sooo cool!!!
>>12817354Just needs a little flap on the top to shield the bottom screen from light, damage and priying eyes.
>>12817254Where can I buy this? It's perfect for dragon quest 1.
>>12817361Don't be silly, the perfect handheld doesn't exist..
>>12817339He was taking it in both holes + both hands
I'm not gay but I often think about the ways the sailors used Russ's petite body.
>>12817394Poor little guy, should've learned him the ropes tho.
>>12817397Literally. I hear those gay furry types get up to all kinds of kinky shit.
>>12817151The Duo's chip should've gone into this, and the 8 gen 2 into the Duo
>>12817486>and the 8 gen 2 into the Duoat that point it's juts a Thor with negligible differencesmoorechip will not cannibalize its own sales
>>12817023So is the RP Nova safe from this issue above 40% brightness?
>>12817354>>didn't get ruined by non-playing tech illiterate retards demanding a weaker chipWait..people do this? Why?
>>12817397Imagine him with his soft voice moaning softly as his colleagues get their way with him.I bet he thinks each stint will earn him some extra bucks for his chinkheld toys.
>>12817509Every single shitcord during reveal (and I assume reddit, wouldn't know, I only put up with the former septic tank because of news getting posted) had a barrage of posts going something like:>BRO WHO NEEDS THIS CHIP [CRYING EMOJI] the office.gif>SD865 RUNS AAAAAALL PS2 RUSS TOLD ME>IF THEY PUT A 865 ON THIS CUSTOM MADE EXCLUSIVE 4:3 120HZ SCREEN RETROID WILL ONLY CHARGE $130 DESPITE THE RP5 RETAILING FOR $200>TRUST ME BRO>DID I MENTION THE G1GEN2 IS SURPRISINGLY CAPABLE? THAT WILL MAKE THE NOVA $100 DESPITE THE RP CLASSIC GOING FOR $150>THIS IS DUUUUMB BRO 8GEN2 IS ONLY FOR SWITCH
>>12817520Actually he is paid in handheldsA sub $60 budget flip device will get you a handjob, the Handheld HandyAnd a $280 SD 8 device will let you cream his hole, it's the Snapdragon Special
After trying Armada, I never want to use Android on a handheld again. Too bad it's still too buggy to main.
>>12817547Do you think Russ is hadoukenable, or at least passes the contra test?
>>12817543I remember when Russ told me the RP3+ played ALL PS2, then said it was correct as long as the versions were PAL, then I found out his concept of fully playable PS2 is iffy and finally I remembered how he hyped the RG350 as being able of running SM64 without problems.
>>12817486And the RP Classic's chip should have gone into the Duo Lite.
>>12817057ugly fat cross dresser
>>12817254Your designs are so fucking stupid.Nobody would want to play this garbage

the chad ds plus vs. virgin duo
>>12817617Nta but "slop" is a term for generation of ai.This was done deliberately and with intentional design. I remember anon draw ing it, so I'm not sure it applies.
>>12817586i dont think any device can really run ALL PS2 onward. but i dont think the SD 860 onward is that shitty.... i have a smartphone i use exclusively for games with a 860... i need to justify it since theres no way in hell im getting a superhandheld any time soon, if fucking ever!
I can't seem to figure out how to get that early purchase $10 discount for the RG DS Plus on aliexpress, their storepage says there should be a discount but there isn't, the pricer is way higher on there..
>>12817579He can barely pass an aids test..
>>12817394What snacks and drinks do they have on board ships?
>>12817798Mostly yummy gamer fuel.

>>12817873Oh that sucks hopefully an ali listing will pop up with it or it goes on sale later
>>12817874its only about a 12 euro difference so not the end of the world, but kinda lame they advertise discounts there and then give none..

>>12817954....the carpal tunnel award for bottom dpad....
>>12817495they shouldve announced a new thor with the 8 elite in it on top of this
>>12817787wrong, it was generated with ai, all of them have been, you're beyond retarded since you can't see the obvious ai-hallucinated artefacting
>>12817954Thor seems great until you actually use it
>>12817958He served in the navy. What have you done for your country?
>>12818053He served in the navy... cooking for the real soldiers
>>12817543the 865 can play ps2 just fine
>>12817984they won't announce a new thor until sales die down its too soon, they might announce an odin 3 portal though
dual screen handheld but the top screen detaches from the hinge (the top screen ribbon cable would work through exposed contacts) so it can be used as a nova or a thor when
>>12817792steamd3ck can
>>12817057I did that two weeks ago Dumbass gonna learn for kicking me out of his moderator team and letting banned members continue accessing his patched rom collection.:^)
>>12818125Nintendo has a patent for this except the detatched screen can function independantly as a second console
>>12818127Those are laughably heug and I wouldn't consider it portable in the slightest. Cool tech? Sure. People should be ridiculed for buying it though.
>>12818125>more points of failure please.
>>12818175But what if magnets?
>>12818058...On opposite day.
>>12818113Chinkheld companies don't announce upgrades when sales slow. In ayn's case, it's when snapdragon has a new chip they want to shill.>>12818152This but retroon

>>12818269Again, works in my hands but if you're having issues you have options.
I am so torn between the Duo Lite and the Flip 2 now, fuck.

Wanna buy my dad a birthday present.What's the cheapest handheld that can play up to PS2?
>>12818280Get the Retroid Pocket 5 or SD865 Retroid Flip 2. They're currently on clearance sale.
>>12818297Yeah, either of these two are the bare minimum. Especially because the RP4P's screen is just too damn small for PS2 even with widescreen hacks.
retro bros how do I setup the light gun for games like duck hunt using an analog stick to control the aiming or gyro if thats possible using retroarch. when I load the game i switch the controls to "zapper" but nothing happens, am I missing something
I looked it up seems like retroarch doesn't really do the lightgun thing out of the box
Why does Russ always do 2 reviews for every handheld? If the second one is supposed to be a review to talk about how it holds up after long term use, shouldn't he wait at least a month to make them instead of one week?
>>12818340his community is full of good goys who will grab a snack and drink to watch every video why wouldn't he release as much slop as possible
Watching Russ (Retro Game Corps) review of the Anbernic RG DS Plus and he doesn't seem to understand what the term upscaling means. He thinks it only applies to internal upscaling of 3d elements in games.But every DS game is upscaled to fit this screen, it's just doing a basic integer upscale.
>>12816938So I can get a phone with snapdragon 8 elite (poco f8 pro) cheaper than I can get a retroid 6, but I see dedicated emu handhelds of this caliber all have a fan, so I guess playing on a phone without any kind of fan would just make it thermal throttle in 10 minutes, am I right? Man
>>12818353he's not technically wrong for using the word. emulators have just made everyone a bit retarded with expectations when using that word. an emulator that outputs native res and the display integer scales the rest to fit the screen is upscaling the content.An emulator that is set to multiply the render resolution to fit 1080p is not technically upscaling, its boosting the render resolution of the console. We use the word interchangably, and it can trick people into thinking something more impressive is happening
>>12818340The first impressions are so a video's out by the time preorders start.
>>12818446The nuance of it is there's a target output resolution (1024x768x2 in the case of RGDS Plus playing DS games), and the emulator is configured to scale either a 256x192 or 512x384 native (canvas) resolution to the display resolution.The rendered video output gets upscaled as you say, but in the same way that it does on a desktop if you resize a window or enter full screen. Upscaling has become colloquial for increasing the image definition and/or fidelity, whether that's through rendering a larger than original image via native rendering, or a post-processing method like shaders or AI methods.Also just briefly reminded of Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask on GameCube.Although it's just N64 emulation, those games do render at 2x native to match the GameCube's VGA output resolution.
>>12818485>1024x768x2 in the case of RGDS PlusHoly fucking shit, the RGDS Plus has three dimensional pixels? Chinks really outdid themselves this time.
>>12818541that's the power of max zhou
Thanks to the anon that recommended dArkos. My 353m is running a million times better now. It's also surprising that it can even handle games with weird clock related issues like Pokémon rom hacks tend to have. Tomorrow I'm gonna give Legacy of Goku 2 a go and see if it gets past that infamous flying thing.
>>12817543holy shit these people seem obnoxious
New to this, suggestions between the Nova, Pocket 6, and Odin 2? Something for psp and switch shit
>>12818586>PSP>Switch16:9, don't get a nova
>>12818274Flip 2 is non pwm which is good, has clicky triggers which is not so good and most important lf all the screen is at a weird angle every single flip 2 user is coping with right now.The lite i don't know but with stick centric games your thumb gona look like the muhfuggin trex
>>12817954Vita won
>>12818683Actually flip 2 uses pwm under 40% brightness according to some users. Keknig
>>12818690grim
>>12818403There are cooler attachments but they don't work as well since chinkhelds fans are cooling the chip directly while pushing out the hot air. There are also Gayming phones with fans if that's your thing.>TheottleHigh end emulation like x86 switch or the best looking android games? Yes. 6th gen stuff and under? No.

Better buy - TrimUI Brick for $80 or Retroid Classic for $100? Literally want a machine for Pokemon and arcade (maybe the occasional Crash Bandicoot or Crazy Taxi run)
>>12819373If you're going to play Crazy Taxi then you need to go for the Classic because the Brick can't run Dreamcast.

Reposting since my post was the very last comment of the last thread...Hey, I need some solid recommendations for what I want ideally, I've hit a wall in choice paralysis. I want the most ergonomic chinkheld for long sessions, and I want to throw any ps2/gc/wii games at it without the need to endlessly tinker with emulator settings for performance. I'm fine with tinkering for performance, but if every single ps2 game needs advanced tweaking for an OK performance, that just won't do.Preferably I'd like the dpad on top, but maybe the Ayn odin 2 portal or anything similiar can convince me otherwise. I already have a switch, 2ds, psp, DS (all of them hacked) but for anything ps1 and below, I play with my anbernic rg35sp.I've had my eyes on a retroid pocket 5 but I just don't know concerning ps2 performance... Plus I'd need thumbsticks and a grip from ali to make it bareable for long sessions but that's not an issue. I welcome anything pricier for a good reason, but I won't pay more than 450US$. Please halp a lurker out!
>>12819982RP5 will require a bit of tinkering in demanding PS2/GC games. Most games will run full speed at 2x out of the box.Odin 2/RP6 have enough performance headroom that you basically don't have to worry about it.

Things like the iPhone were still a few years away, so it's hard to convey how cool it was at the time to have a pocket internet device.
ANBERNIC RG DS PLUS no retroachivemetns for DS?
Can someone who has a handheld please test this for me before I buy one for myself.Open Neo Turf Masters in RetroArch, then load the shader "image-adjustment" (it should be available in the misc section as both a glsl shader and a slang shader).Then start then game and get to one of the screens with the swing meter. You should be able to open the shader parameters and zoom in on the swing meter in the lower right corner by adjusting the zoom setting and the x and y modifier. This should let you blow up the swing meter to take up the full screen.Then go into the input settings of retroarch and set the hotkey to enable or disable shaders to a button on the handheld. You should now be able to switch between normal view, and magnified view of the swing meter by pressing the hotkey. I think this could help with playing this classic game on small screens.
>>12820647I just tried it and it worked. A bit fiddly but it does work.
>>12820647As if'n ya had any doubts
idk why they insist on making ds chinkhelds so fucking big 5in top screen or maybe 5.5in without the huge bezels of the retroid pocket duo would be nice.
>>12820725The RGDS had 4 inch screens and RGDS Plus 4.3 and they're still huge as fuck.

>>12819982Speaking of tweaking for PS2 games, anyone here got any tips for Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance? I'm running it on my RG477M through ARMSX2 and it chugs like a motherfucker most of the time. Doesn't seem to have anything to do with graphics as I can swing from 3x resolution to half resolution without making a lick of difference, ditto for every other graphics option I've tried, including frameskip. In fact the only thing that's helped so far is turning on GPU palette conversion, which helps in places that always have a steady framerate drop like the ice caves. Other than that it'll sometimes randomly run smoothly for a little bit until I encounter two or three enemies and then it's right back to chugville. It seems to start when there are more objects on screen, which makes sense, except that it tends to not clear up afterward, even in towns it'll still run slow.I did try running the GC version in Dolphin as well, but that also ran poorly. I'm in far enough into the PS2 version that I'm trying to stick with it regardless.
>>12820296Only russkies will get this
>>12817505pls reply
RG DS Plus has 60Hz screens. This means you will have quite shit input latency in DS emulators, as they don't support runahead, and the chip isn't powerful enough for that even if they did.
>>12820807Look it up yourself retard
Reminder all clamshell chinkhelds are a scam gimmick being astroturfed by youtube shills>only purpose is to emulate DS games>uses laggy dogshit capactive touchscreens instead of resistive touchscreens the ds use>active stylus cause even more lag>retroarch and watermelonDS are both janky dogshit>3ds emulation barely fucking works in generalSeriously when will there be a device that can properly emulate TWEWY and Elite beat agents?>B-BUT YOU CAN BROSE LE YOUTUBE AND PLAY NES AND PS2 GAMES!!so can a million other fucking without being uncharged for a useless feature that doesnt work correctly
>>12820056This sucks. I'm on the verge of getting it because if those muhfuggin clicky triggers but if on top of that i can get a lotery pwm screen then fugg it.Might play Zelda later dunno.I can barely stand the stamina circle on this game always invading the otherwise simplistic design and ui of the game.

>>12820828Why don't dualscreen chinkhelds use pens like in the samsung ultras, the s-pen?Or just styluses from 2-in-1 convertible laptops? Are these really such highbrow technology that they can't be replicated in a chinkheld?

The Lite performance is absolute shite https://youtu.be/jfUHlSoZZ0c?si=wDe01SbJIJWStem6
>>12821191no way...
>>12821194I know you're being sarcastic but it had audio crackling even in a regular DS game. It's ewaste
>>12821191>even 2x psp resolution is unplayableyeah that's pretty bad
>>12820997Bump. I thought this was the edgy reddit of handhelders?
I tried using a "phone controller" for moonlight and it felt like shit.What's the best dedicated handheld Moonlight client that's less than $300? I need Start and Select buttons that aren't at the bottom and HE/TMR sticks would be nice, same for mechanical buttons, but I can live with neither as long as the rest of the device is good (low latency, nice screen, comfortable in the hand)
Another L for Retroid. They've made nothing good since 4 Pro
>>12821191>372gr >lite
>>12821005It's a micro without the charm
literally all they have to do is make a handheld with the form factor of a 3ds with included built in stylus but actually put in enough processing powerhow hard can it be? its kind of sad that the best / most thought out DS device is still a lower powered Anbernic oneIt feels more like they just wanted to make a cheaper thor aimed at zoomers that need to constantly have two things playing at once even on a retro handheld instead of a device that plays dual screen games comfortably
RP5 is the point of diminishing returns for this shit
nova keeps winning
My handheld console allows me to change the control settings, but doing so is a hassle. Do you know of any games that show me which buttons I'm pressing? Ideally, I'm looking for games with a control setting menu. Specifically, I'm looking for these types of games for the following consoles: NES, Game Boy, and Genesis.I searched Romhacking.net to see if anyone had created a homebrew game like this, but I only found two.https://www.romhacking.net/homebrew/136/https://www.romhacking.net/homebrew/126/

>>12821338needing to buy an ugly 15 dollar grip attachment to fix ergonomics and to be able to have a stylus attached / stored on the console is a hacky afterthought and not good handheld console design desu it's simply an inferior product if your main usecase is buying it for DS / 3DS imopersonally i'd want something that doesn't need a grip attached to it at all times, i want to be able to just toss something in a bag without things sticking out or the whole device becoming too bulky
>>12821349That's what I use on my rk3288 gpd xd. What the FUCK did retroid do?
>>12821191Yep, Anbernic won
>>12821279But enough about (you).
>>12820997I got a Flip 2 at release. The best way I can describe it is: my favorite handheld that I never use. I'm going to sell mine now that my Nova is in.I never had issues with the screen angle. Ergonomics are also surprisingly good for just about everything. The only time the layout feels off is when I play a modern PC game that requires my right hand move between the stick and buttons a lot.The problem, at least for me, is that it's a goldilocks handheld: jack of all trades, master of none. For anything modern, I'd rather use my Portal. For anything retro, I'd rather use my small handheld (now the Nova). The one thing it's really good at is travel, since it's a clamshell sized to cover everything. But I don't travel enough to need a dedicated handheld for that.>>12821147They banned me for not liking Pokemon Lazarus.

It's not over yet there's still the regular RP Duo
>>12821387Is there a long shipping delay for these like there is for the Thor
>>12821398If performance is the only problem with the Lite then the regular is shaping up to be good.
>>12821253The issue is that "enough processing power" is fucking expensive and not that easy to fit into 3DS-shaped chinkheld. On top of that emulation of 3DS is not really in perfect state, yet.Even Thor has it's issues and that costs an arm, a leg and a left kidney.You want top tier guts in a tiny, 2-screen format with absolutely no issues with heat or battery and on top of that you want perfectly optimized OS and emulator and all of this obviously below 250$You'll have easier time to get yourself a crocodile on a golden chain or unicorn.... or a busty anime wolf girl.
>>12821191Retroid is so fucking stupid, they had the RP Classic chip right there.
>>12821191>lag with 2X in God of War PSPThat's really fucking bad, why buy this over the RP Flip 2 with the D1100 at the same price?
>>12821374Kinda? Their handheld is obviously weaker but they are honest about it and focused on improving everything else.Obviously the comparison is kinda pointless because RG DS Plus is "just" a handheld focused on DS emulation. But because Anbernic focused on that instead of targeting the generalist dual screen pipe dream, they achieved their goal.
>>12821440DS games? That's the whole point.
>>12821652The best handheld for playing DS games remains a DS.All of these dual screen handhelds should either be powerful enough to run them with plenty of handhelds, or at least run other consoles too. Otherwise there's no point getting one over a DS.
>>12821659*With plenty of enhancements
>>12821434China is controlling all the fresh water sources of the world...but water is free hahaha.They're so stupid...
>>12821659You're technically not wrong but I find all DS models outside of the original hard to go back to either due to being too small or having a tiny dpad (DSi XL)
they're always using a grip to make it comfortable, not a good signhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROV0Tlv9jnU
I boughted a TrimUI Smartpro S and it's arriving in the mail today or the next few days. What OS should I put on it? I liked MinUI on my Model S so I'm inclined towards NextUI but Knulli also looks interesting.
>>12821762Knulli is great
>>12821762Anything but Knulli
are there any vids showing the clear plastic models of the duo yet? hard to gauge what they'll actually look like from the renders, although it's probably safe to assume the texture and opacity will be the same as the nova
>>12821440the chip should be able to 2x the majority of psp games. I think being able to play the 2000s handheld generation on one device in a ds form factor is pretty good. Obviously if you want 3ds you have to go for the more expensive model with oled screens. They probably could have given the device more power but I guess they want to keep it cheap and segment it from the regular duo and thor.
I can get it on chongxpress with discount for 190€.Yes or nah? Should i wait for Nig friday?
>>12821378Ok

VITABROSKIIIIIIISSSSSSS
Does anyone know how to force DS games into a rotated view?The Android builds of MelonDS dont have an option for it, and no one seems to be talking about it.
>>12820678Thank you. It works just like my tests in retroarch. You can further refine it by turning off OSD messages, which will remove the shader messages at the bottom of the screen. You can also map the shader display to a button-hold instead of needing to press it twice. I haven't figured out a way to be able to toggle through different shaders in order to be able to zoom in on different areas of the screen.
>>12821907every single port of any game in history was made with AI, it sucks. you should feel ashamed of having installed that on your vita. your parents should disown you... kill yourself.did i got it right, you fucking bastards? i really despise how much hate static recomp projects are getting, even those who didnt use AI are getting shat on, for christ sake!

Thoughts on the Konkr Pocket Fit?
Reminder:This is the handheld they cannot make.Yes, sticks a little higher, a bit softer edges so it's comfy to hold for hours but bretty much dis:>4:3, 720p good ips. (No you do don't need more)>5000mah battery>no clicky shit>snapdragon >discrete home, start and select buttons at the bottom, like ot has always been done>speakers on top screen, fuckoff>$167 buckos
>>12822001I want that but without the hinge. And not a flat vertical either. a rigid case with the screen at the perfect angle for play.
>>12822001>retroid flip mini but make it shitfag
>>12821960>i really despise how much hate static recomp projects are gettingThere are two huge problems right now.First, the absolute flood of vibe coded releases. Recomps, front ends, ports, and more, all vibe coded. It's hard to find quality amongst the noise.Second, the dishonesty about development. Everyone pretends they're a team of developers, "We'll be releasing soon!", when in reality it's Claude and one guy guessing at prompts. This gives the impression these are real projects, when in reality they're often buggy messes with a "dev" that doesn't know how to fix anything. Armada is a great example: it destructively overheated handhelds by "accidentally" removing thermal limits.
>>12821960Good morning, indian transvestite.
>>12821940>>12821962Several DS games are meant to be rotated like a book, like in the top image.I can't find a way to force this layout in the Android version of MelonDS, so side-by-side layouts on a landscape device only ever look like the bottom image.
>>12822005>It's hard to find quality amongst the noise.You haven't even tried these ports. You are a luddite.> Armada is a great example: it destructively overheated handhelds by "accidentally" removing thermal limits.Nonsensical FUD.
>>12822016>I can't find a way to force this layout in the Android version of MelonDSUse RetroArch.
>>12822001it needs broken diamond buttons
>>12822016MelonDS -> Settings -> Input -> Layouts -> + button top right -> Menu -> Properties -> Layout Orientation
>>12822025Tried both Portrait and Landscape. No effect.I get the impression this is somehow relying on device rotation, which is a real killer for dedicated handhelds.
>>12822053Never tried it myself cause I have a Thor, just knew that the setting was there on MelonDS.Did you try Drastic? I'm pretty sure that can do it, it has landscape and portrait layouts.
>>12822065I haven't. I'm sure it does it too, just thought I might be missing something on Melon.

>>12822180And an ayy lmao to you, young martian.
>>12822174the small n3ds is pretty comfy I never used the xls so idk about those
Not retro but I expect a Dark Souls decomp to come out pretty soon due to the game's sheer popularity, and that will then be ported to arm64. And then all these little chinkhelds will be playing Dark Souls, which will lead to a big revival of the game's popularity. Possibly affecting the handheld market in broad influence.
>>12822239dark souls is already on a handheld though
>>12822239You can already emulate Dark Souls perfectly via both Switch and PC emulation on most chinkhelds with a snapdragon chip. I'd be more interested in a Demon's Souls decomp but idk if people have figured out how to decomp PS3 games yet.
The fuck is this shit? Why have a 1:1 screen on a device which plays physical gba carts?
Make sure you have a pocket-able device when you go out, even if you don't plan on it. You never know when your car will break down miles from civilization while your phone is almost dead. Anyways, the NGPC port of Pac Man is a great port and very good for handhelds with small displays. I think I was playing it for about three hours on a 2 inch screen.
>>12822302The EDCpill is the final pill of the retro handheld hobby. You start out thinking you want a benchmaxxed snapdragon chinkheld and then you realize that the device you actually play 90% of the time when you're outside is the $50 H700 shitter.
>>12822317Only ambernig understands this
Man, i love my RG SP + MuOS Andromeda so much. I feel like I'm using a $100+ device, muos improved a lot since I used it back in 2024.
>>12822359How is 4:3 content on it?
>>12822302I had to wait on a train while driving home yesterday.busted out the rg sp and continued playing a fire emblem romhack.
>>12822398rg sp is for Gameboy Advance only.playing anything else on it is gay.
>>12821762I like NextUI because I'm allergic to the Retroarch interface.
Small EDC 'held that's still comfy to play on? Is it genuinely the MM+?
>>12822398For now I only play GBA games, so in theory it should look bad vs 4:3 handheld
>>12822465I cant imagine the Miyoo Mini+ still being a good EDC in terms of comfort, unless you want to treat it as a Pokemon Crystal machine. For me a horizontal like the MagicX One35 is still the sweet spot for retro games, especially since it's about the size of a smartphone while not being terribly bulky in terms of thickness either. Also helps that the sleep feature barely drains any battery life.
>>12822539>a horizontal like the MagicX One35 is still the sweet spotThis, except the Ayaneo Pocket Micro Classic. Overpriced and hard to find, but it's the best pocket-sized handheld I've ever used.
>>12822001>speakers in a place covered by your handsHere's the fixed version.

I buy the gourmet expensive stuff because when I drink it, I want to taste it. But you know what's on my mind right now? It ain't the coffee in my kitchen, it's the dead nigger in my garage.
>>12822616Why not six face buttons? All that wasted potential space should be used for adding more USPs. I'd give a little consideration to ergos too a small, asymmetrical curve added to the sides would probably do wonders.
>>12822793>Why not six face buttonsBecause I'm not an arcade fag. Shoulder buttons are superior to additional face buttons.

Today marks one month of trading emails with Rosa (actually some Xin Long Ping) from retronigger’s shipping support.She says the second batch of 8GB black Novas is almost ready (for realsies this time).Getting chink fatigue. This shit has never happened with anberniggers, retrofucks still need to learn about logistics.
>>12823326I got my July 20 something 12GB Black shipped the other day, so maybe.
>>12822670Yeah, it's about having the best experience for a system with 200 good games, instead of having a comprimised experience for every system (which you never fucking play because you're a brown poser)
>>12816938>Handheld General I don't get this dumbass fad. Why not just get a hacked Vita/Switch/WiiU?

>>12823415Because they all come with their own limitations and thanks to collectooooooooooooooors cost an arm, leg and left kidney. They are also 10+ devices not build to last for decades, so chances are that they will be either damaged or close to just dying due to for example NAND write/read limitations.Meanwhile modern chinkhelds are completely open architectures running Linux and/or Android, offer variety of form factors and price ranges and are made from relatively new components.It's not really a fad but a natural niche that was created by Nintendo leaving the handheld market and instead creating massive, retarded tablet that everyone and your mom copied. People want their tiny, cute gaming devices and mobile phones are fucking gay for this purpose. Naturally someone looked at that and the pile of various existing components and was like "we can just do this!".Honestly, I find it kinda amusing how supposedly communist China had this revelation that fits more to what one could expect from free markets.
>>1282360610+ yo devices*Hurr durr I was painting walls entire day and I'm bit high on fumes...Still, the point stands - someone wanted shit and someone was willing to make that shit and here we are. Praise the Xi Ping-Pooh and commercial freedom of CCCP./s
>>12823415I hope you actually believe this stupid hearsay bullshit and end up buying one of those for emulation. I really do.
>>12823415So you want to buy an overpriced, weaker than even the cheapest modern retro handhelds and rapidly deteriorating e-waste, fuck around to hack it, install some very bad and not updated for years emulators and then cope and fool yourself about how it's a superior experience and the fucked-up aspect ratio with no proper scaling options, fucked-up sound and shitty controls are just adding to the charm.I mean, you do you and you're a free man, but personally I'll stick to my Anbernic RG40XX H.
>>12822258>>12822259$50 chinkhelds have a different audience. >You can already emulate Dark Souls perfectly via both Switch and PC emulation on most chinkhelds with a snapdragon chip."perfectly" is a stretch, and those are $200 and up handhelds.

Any of ya'll just watch television on your handhelds? It's kind of funny how growing up I always wanted a portable television, and now that I have the ability to watch videos on a phone anywhere I want I hardly ever do it.
Another FPGA-held arriveshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIoOehM2wYI&t=5m43s
>>12823714Theoretically, the 4:3 OLED on a Retroid Pocket Nova combined with a HD transfer of an older tv show like Star Trek: TOS should look fantastic. Like it would probably be the best you've ever seen the show look, given small screens add virtual contrast and sharpness.

>>12824010a 3ds
>>12824046They specified third party anon>>12824010RGDS Plus is looking like the winner for DS games at the moment, as a purpose-built Linux device specially for DS games.The stock firmware seems to need improving, but the GammaOS guy is working on improving the original RGDS and is working with Anbernic on the RGDS Plus.
>>12824010The Duo Lite struggles. The Thor Lite just about cuts it. The regular Duo is more powerful than the Thor Lite, so it should be fine. The Thor Base, Pro, Max have way more than enough performance.

I find it unforgivable that the RG DS Plus lasts almost as long when it's turned on as it does when it's charging. What a wasted opportunity.
>>12823415People who make more than $20 an hour are willing to spend a day's paycheck on something better.
>>12823415I sold all my consoles and I'm all in on pc emulation + chinkhelds. it's objectively a better experience. yeah sure you could emulate on a vita which caps out at ps1/psp or you could get a retroid pocket 5 (weaker than the rp6 but closer to vita size) and play everything up to ps2 with upscaling and shaders plus some switch games plus light weight pc games.official hardware has been deprecated and china wonned bigly.

>>12823527the shitta is not pocketable and has only 1 game which is easily playable by chinkhelds using portmaster of the pc port of it, so
>>12824507It's rather rather trivial to watch an actual OTA network television broadcast on a chinkheld. They even make devices specifically for picking up OTA broadcasts and then viewing them on your phone, which will work perfectly well with any android based handheld.
>>12824516stfu bitch I love(d) my vita
>>12824507Lynch was talking about films here, not television. However, it was still a retarded take because there are certain kinds of films that play better on a small screen, and watching a movie on your phone will have about the same visual field of view as watching a film on a 19" television from across the living room. Which is how people watched movies at home for decades.
>>12824517>lagdroidnot a chinkheld, that's a faggot phone with buttons tacked on
>>12824517>>12824529>the joke going over your heads this hardwew lads
>>12824485Did you miss the pic for context, anon? Here it is again. It's obviously I meant live OTA television
>>12824535but a faggot phone with buttons tacked on IS a chinkheld!
>>12824542>meant live OTA televisionWhich still has many old shows being shown on it going back decades and decades. For instance, I enjoy watching Becker on the Rewind channel in my local market. I occasionally enjoy an episode of The Love Boat, Fantasy Island, Wings, In The Heat Of The Night, Martin, various cartoons on MeTV toons, westerns on Grit channel...well, it just goes on. Then there are the new episodes of game shows like The Price is Right, Let's Make a Deal, Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy, and Hollywood Squares that I watch from time to time. And the local news. And programs I like such as WOW Superstars, the Olympics, SNL...There's plenty to watch on OTA television other than modern cop and medical shows and reality slop.
>>12824549Some more shows I get on OTA televisionXena: Warrior PrincessStargate and Stargate: AtlantisSlidersSupernaturalThe Outer LimitsEmergency!GunsmokeC.H.I.P.S.You can get all this stuff on basically any kind of device via IPTV. Including any handheld running android or linux. Plus thousands of other feeds. You can watch live channels from all over the world. You could watch NHK World TV's live feed on a handheld if you wanted to.

Ayn I am growing impatient, you will start producing more Thors now or else. Time is running out Ayn. Enough of this.
>>12824561Update: It's worse than I thoughtApparently nobody else has one of these because although the NextUI pak store has tons of paks for the Brick, there basically aren't any for the Smartpro S. There's no DC emulator available at all.
>>12824613>he still doesn't know
Who is the RG Rotate for?
>>12824902180° niggas
>>12824902Someone who wants a small Android handheld. It's smaller than the RG SP while also having a larger screen than the Zero 28, for example.
I have spent over $800 on chinkhelds but after fucking around with the newest one for an hour I always just go back to my DSi XL and my new 3DS XL including for emulation. Don't even ask me about my retrotink 4k. I should be just put down.
>>12824916>but after fucking around with the newest one for an hour What do you mean by this? Have you never fine tuned a handheld? You just play with the pre-installed emulators and roms?
>>12824917I should have said, fucking around with it for an hour (by playing each game for 5 minutes) after spending 6 hours on perfecting my setup for it and then shelving it forever.
>>12824919>spending 6 hours on perfecting my setup for itand what do you mean by that?
Might pick up the new 'nig ds on 11/11, just found out it has a built in stylus
Unironically wish I had an hhg buddy to try local net play with
>>12820678Smart
>>12824923Trying different OSes and different latency settings to get the highest performance and lowest latency possible on it
>>12823716Nice, hope we get more and more of these so prices on fpga shit can dropI still want an fpgbc but $100 for something that isn't even 1:1 (timing issues never got fixed) is bullshit.It's closed off too so only the chinks can fix it but they won't/cant
>>12824916this but much more than $800...the void in my soul is just too deep to fill with plastic, but like a fool i keep shoveling them in
>>12824939I think they can't fix it, it's limited to the weird timing because of its components, and components that support proper timing would be much more expensive.
>>12824931If you've done that then going back to the DSi and 3DS for emulation makes no sense, as both of those would be inferior choices.
>>12824946Pretty sure that's all contained in the actual fpga, it's just poorly implemented.They should just port the mister core
>>12824948Obviously not for DS and 3DS games. Not for GBA either, agb_firm on 3DS is completely native, and GBARunner3 is almost native, at least it has zero input lag, and 3 is much more compatible than 2, basically all my preferred games work perfectly on it. There is also no perceptible latency in gameyob on DSi.I don't emulate desktop consoles on handhelds because the screens are fucking tiny compared to a TV.
>>12824951>The 59.73 Hz vs. 60 Hz Mismatch>An original Game Boy Color runs its CPU at 4.194304 MHz (8.388608 MHz in double-speed mode). Because video scanlines are generated in lockstep with the master clock (154 lines × 456 cycles per frame), original hardware outputs video at exactly 59.7275 Hz. The FPGBC, however, uses a modern, off-the-shelf IPS screen designed strictly for standard 60.00 Hz timings. >Direct-Drive Video vs. Frame Buffering>To bridge the gap between 59.73 Hz and 60 Hz, a system must choose one of two paths:>Frame Buffering: Store complete frames in external RAM and drop/duplicate frames or use variable refresh to match 60 Hz. This eliminates speed differences, but it introduces 1–2 frames of input latency and requires a more expensive FPGA and memory subsystem.>Direct Drive (Scanline Sync): Feed pixels directly from the simulated Game Boy PPU (Picture Processing Unit) straight to the display panel ribbon with zero frame buffer latency.>FunnyPlaying chose direct drive to keep latency near zero and production costs low. Because the IPS panel will flicker or lose sync if pushed outside its accepted refresh envelope, the FPGA core is forced to run slightly faster (~0.46% to 1%) to keep the core in lockstep with the screen.
>>12824952>agb_firm on 3DS is completely native, and GBARunner3 is almost native,What do you mean by "native"?
>>12824954The fuck is your problem? 3DS has all the hardware onboard to run GBA games literally natively. DSi has the CPU and the GPU but doesn't have the SPU. So with GBARunner everything is native except the sound which is emulated.If you don't understand what native execution means, fuck off and do a Google search.
>>12821459giwtwm
>>12824957>almost native>almost a womanmore like 3DSeethe
>>12821191Does that mean I didn't fuck up when I got a Thor? People were saying that the Duo will be a better cheaper Thor.
>>12824961My wife having a penis is an extra, not a drawback.
>>12824957>3DS has all the hardware onboard to run GBA games literally natively.via SOAC, yes.
>>12824963no arguments about leaving the seat up, smart!
>>12824969Nice try, but I'm not going to soak my 3DS, I know it's not waterproof.
Talk me out of trading my Thor in for a Duo just to have equal sized DS screens and lightening up the weight in my pocket by 30g.
>>12824971Not that anon but i sit to pee so i can get some free time to play on my chinkheld on the boss' dime
>>12824989really no reasons not to unless you play lots of switch or pc gamesdo you?
>>12824989Why would you trade in something for something that costs half as much? Are you retarded? Oh right, this is /hhg/
>>12824991No, not really. I've just tried a couple of indie games on Gamenative.>>12824992Obviously I don't mean literally trade in, retard. I'd probably actually make a profit since I could sell the Thor for more than what the Duo costs.
>>12824993>Obviously I don't mean literally trade in, retard. I'd probably actually make a profit since I could sell the Thor for more than what the Duo costs.Then do it. I personally would really miss the additional emulation capability. If I wanted something to just play DS games, I'd buy a good quality DSi XL. Just ask direct questions from the seller about screen yellowing or vignetting. If he lied, send it back.
>>12824535>Describes a chinkheld perfectly Nigga, the dingoo was literally a fucking phone. Whatever phone it based on still had its original software for phone games. That's why it was successful even in chinkland even before dingux.

>>12824453since this thread is on /VR/ I assumed it would be about original hardware.Instead I find its about chinese ewasteYou would be more at home in the chink shit general thread
>>12825086Guess you cock-sucking, unbearable nigger what people use this "chinese ewaste" for?You're either a retard or just another indian trying to stir shit, which makes you a double retard.Besides, all of that "original hardware" you jerk off to was produced in China, too.

>>12825084You seem to think 3ds, DS, and GBA are the only pieces of original hardware that matter, which makes you silly, and I don't argue with silly people.
>>12825112it is pretty silly to assume i am that silly.I have multiple handhelds for multiple systems
>>12825118>I have multiple handhelds for multiple systemsWhich you said you don't use and always go back to your DSi and 3DS.
>>12825123What strawman are you talking about?I mostly use my vita or switchThe vita to me is the peak of handhelds, the best one ever made and probably will ever be made
>>12825123i dont even have a DSi btw you are confusing me with someone else lolThe DSi sucks, screens too big looks and feels not greatMy brother had one as a kid while i had a ds lite
>>12825129>i dont even have a DSi You have intruded on a private conversation between myself and anon.
>>12825108>Which is why I dont get why they dont just make actual 1:1 replicas instead of shit that looks "similliar" but feels completely different.tl;dr - Components that are either propietary, most of it not produced anymore and firmware that is locked down and closed source architectures and legal hell.On top of that - "3DS literally has GBA and DS components inside" means jack shit when you still display it all on screen with completely different specs and there's no scaling/filter options besides fullscreen and 1:1, both of which look like shit and piss. Emulation beats the living crap out of such poor implementation of "literally having the components of old consoles inside" by sheer amount of options. Why settle for 10+ years old poor imitation of running game on original hardware when I can just use modern handheld with modern emulation and all the perks coming out of it?
>>12825123I am that anon. Again, I don't emulate home consoles on tiny handheld screens. For that I have my retrotink and a modded Wii with composite output for 8-bit and 16-bit and N64, plus original hardware for PS1/2, GC, DC.
>>12825142On a DSi a 1:1 GBA screen looks great. On the 3DS, GBA scaling is tolerable, or you can use 1:1 with a border, that latter one results in a screen exactly the size of an original GBA (on the XL model)
>>12825096>What people use ewaste for...Android and 7th gen and up emulation. Even in this thread. People don't acutally discuss retro gaymes.>>12825102>Esl missed the part how the dingoo is a literal phoneYup. He be squrtin anal liquid.>>12825142>Coomlectorcuck.

>>12825174>Magic x, Trimui, and Miyoo out of nowhere
>>12825142Again, I asked for you to recommend a modern chinkheld so I can properly judge it>advantages of modern emulationsuch as? The vita for example can natively play vita and psp, and thats a big library allready, ontop of that emulates GBA/SNES/Mega drive etc flawlessly. And the Vita has Absolute S tier buttons, an OLED screen and hall effect sticks Can any chinese knockoff match the feel and specs of that? I dont give a single fuck if it has a more modern soc, it doesnt matter if it feels bad to play on

>>12825205Chrono Trigger on my New 3DS XL (Just beat Dalton, the lamest boss fight in the game so far) and started Final Fantasy X on my Retroid Pocket 5, never beat it as a kid cause I only played it by borrowing a friend's copy for a week.
I got the KONKR POCKET ADVANCE. Best display I've seen for GBA bar none. Russ was coping when he said you would not notice 4X integer scale and unlike the H700 devices it has the power to use lcdv2 shader and runahead
I bought a pocket ace but it has the worst screen bleed ever in the bottom right corner, also realized that the screen is only really good for gba worst 600 dollars I ever spent

any recommendations for a chinkheld targeted towards gay twinks?
>>12825310NTA but I wish eBay didn't have the "Simple" Delivery bullshit which puts the onus of the transaction completely on the seller or the Buyer Protection Fee™ which I have to calculate the cut of or the odd number puts off buyers from private seller listings.

What handheld console should you buy if you're White, Slavic, or Indian respectively?
>>12824613My strongest clamshells would kill you, traveler. You can't handle my strongest handhelds. You'd better go to a seller that sells weaker handhelds. I can't give you my strongest handhelds because my strongest handhelds are only for the strongest beings and you are of the weakest. You don't know what you ask, traveler. My strongest clamshell will kill a dragon, let alone a man. You need a seller that sells weaker handhelds, because my handhelds are too strong.You can't handle my strongest handhelds! No one can! My strongest handhelds aren't fit for a beast let alone a man.
>>12825365My primary concerns are that it's small, ideally it's shaped like a Gameboy Micro, and has good battery life. I'm partial to Apotris (which I think needs Portmaster) but even being able to play Worlds for the GBA is enough

>>12825384WHICH retroid pocket HRRM?
>>12825246I would have bought an Ace if the Nova had been announced just a few weeks later. Sounds like bad luck on the backlight bleed, but 3:2 is the ideal screen ratio to cover everything. It's the jack-of-all-trades ratio where 16:9 is pretty good, but 4:3 is also pretty good. Every other ratio ends up with one size that doesn't fit well at all. The Ace screen in particular is also a great resolution for PC content since it's 1080 tall.Also, I'm not sure why Ayaneo keep shooting themselves in the foot when it comes to actually making their handhelds. The only Ayaneo I have I spent weeks hunting down on the used market.
>>12825384>And the only console that can pixel perfectly do psp thats not a psp is also the vita.A 1080p panel is almost perfect. Just crop two pixels at the top and bottom.
>>12825401>lose part of the game screen>"it's perfect"
>>12825378Anbernic RG28XX? It's very tiny, maybe even bit too tiny depending on your hands.
>>12825403It's less than a percent of the screen. It's fine.
>>12825401The vita can blank half the lines and get native resolution and soft little scanlinesIts better then real hardware1080p screen doesnt even look close even with software filters
>>12825378>>12825404Miyoo a30 is pretty similiar size-wise.

>>12825408you just know its dogshit when it has some 3d game pasted onto the screen lol
The more I am reading this thread the more I am convinced I need another spare vita>>12825404Take this for example.This is gonna have a mushy dpad, dogshit screen and buttons and you wont use it for more then 15 minutes ever.The only advantage if you can call it that to something like that is being able to throw it in your pocket without worrying about it breaking

Your parents are sad and genuinely believe that abortion would be a better option than having son like you.
>>12825418nta but I don't like the way the Vita's buttons and dpad feel, and the back touchpad is a bad gimmick too desuThe only good things about the Vita are that it looks nice and it worked as a way to show me who the cool black kids were growing up (all my white friends had GBAs and most of the black kids at my school were into sports)
