He's clearly trolling. There's no way anyone with a functioning brain would say H700 is fully capable of n64. Maybe the lightweight games work, but a lot of the popular games require speed hacks and frame skips to be playable.

Thing is i bought it to carry it around and use it.
Most of my handhelds are taken care properly, all of them in their little bags, always afraid of scratches etc...
My mind always acts like you do in these threads: looking for what's wrong, finding any excuse to sabotage my happiness with sour remarks.
At least with a used ds i can be free and if i scratch it more then so be it.

you kind of have to pick your poison with the ds line. you're going to be making concessions either way. lite screens are small on paper but in real life they look great. only problem is gba games are a little saturated because they're meant to be played with a transflective screen and natural light

dsi plays dsi games and you can softmod it so you dont need to fuck around with flashcards which is nice. i heard playing gba games through gbarunner can have some audio latency issues but they run 99% fine. but i'm a stickler so for me it's the phat or lite

Call me a heretic, but if I was designing it I would delete the six button design, go to a four button face design, and use the shoulders for more buttons.
>but fighting games
Anyone who actually plays fighting games at the very high level on a pad doesn't use a six button on the face controller. They use the four face buttons plus the four shoulder buttons at the same time. Which is actually closer to how a person uses an arcade stick with their fingers spread out across the buttons. Using just your thumb to do combos is very difficult.

I see...I'm also a stickler and playing gba on a ds feels so off.
Anyway nowadays gbarunner3 is compatible with 95% of gba games if i ever feel like playing them there.
Lite is cool, is just i always felt rhe screens a bit small.
Fat is heavy but the retro look is nice.

*REMINDER
Every audiovisual experience is by norm 50% visual and 50% sound.
If you play your games with low volume you're missing 50% of the experience and then you hop in threads like this and say that metroid prime and ape escape are shit.
And you're right because you DIDN'T PLAY THE GAME.
You only played 50% with low volume, like a bitch.

>>12850882
free if you mod it. i dont think you can mod the oled for free though, idk havent checked in a long time
>>
>>12850846
Well, there are expensive handhelds that can do that with even better looking graphics, but we're talking in the $1000 or more price range.
>>
>>12850882
Capcom games go on sale for $10, also Dragon's Dogma. No more heroes as well. Subnautica too and dying light i picked it up for $8 or so i think. Also $10 for both portal games irc. So it's just bayonetta which i bought the doenload code for like $15 from someone but otherwise i think is full price, smtvv for $20 on discount and skyrim i think it goes for $25.
Best you can do nowadays is get a MIG card, I've seen them for $60.
But i still think getting a second hand oled for $150 and putting $100 more for like 8 or so games on discount is worth it.
Heck i payed $350 for mine when it launched and I've seen people reselling it brand new for $200, 2 years ago.
>>
>>12850886
Mexico ain't the US nor white, bozo

$150 is not realistic for a used OLED Switch.
More like $180 at the very lowest getting a good deal + shipping on ebay.
Then you're still stuck with Switch joycons that don't even have a real d-pad.
>>
>>12850897
Odin 2 will run it nicely. But yeah you can't detach the controllers.
Plus emulation becomes a drag at some point. Retro emulation is fine because is fast and easy though
>>
>>12850918
Yeah i agree $180 is more realistic. Because on ebay everything is leiced in already. Fb marketplace etc you will find nice oleds for 150 for sure. But yeah think 170-200 for a nice looking one plus one game.
I've seen lots. And saying you're stuck with no dpad when no switch gam use it is just retarded cuh...unless you're going to play virtual console and you want a dpad but that's a different subject
>>
>>12850890
Nah, you're wrong. And so are a lot of other people who think just having some kind of sound is "good enough". This is especially true in the handheld market.

Do any chinese handhelds have buttons similar to the vita? I have nerve damage in my fingertips and am physically unable to play with sharp, jagged, overly-stiff, or gummy buttons. The vita works great for me though. Love that thing. If I can add to it with a handheld for more modern emulation that would be real neat.

its like you are using a chink handheld.
Except it feels good in your hand, your games just work at full speed always, and the UI is much better, the screen is good
apart from that its basically the same tho

vita would have been so much better if it had slider sticks.

Only worth it for the DS and 3DS. Chinese handhelds just have too much delay with the touchpad/stylus for any games that actually use the stylus. Maybe worth it for Gameboy Color if you don't mod the screen.

>>12851184
The Retroid Pocket 6/Nova is pretty close to the vita. Same style d-pad but Retroid's face buttons aren't as clicky as the Vita's. Probably the best replacement for the Vita you can get. I look at mine as a modern Vita.

Or at least I didn't use to, these days I'm starting to get more conscious about it and get the games in form of game collections, if they're available.

I don't. It's one thing if game companies either pull a Konami or Gung-ho and try to rerelease their old games like Suikoden, Lunar or Grandia in some fashion, even Lufia is getting a rerelease of the SNES games soon. But when the company hasn't or it's in some sort of legal limbo, it just isn't worth paying an arm and a leg for those prices, especially for a game like Summon Night Swordcraft Story. It's even worse for old PS1-PS2 horror games.

The original GBA had an even smaller display. I'm not sure how all systems look like on the 34xx, but the screen on the 40xx-h is large enough for all PS1, N64 and SNES games and it's even big enough for a lot of PSP games (the ones it can run anyway).

Most of the 16bit era was designed for shitty 14" TVs with a RF connection. Very few games has small sharp text. even the 32bit era was mostly fine with the standard QVGA resolution limiting how small you could make things.

It's only the DC/PS2/GC era where it becomes an issue as TV sizes were bumped up and more games were higher res.
>>
>>12852146
For 16 bit games it's not an issue. PSX games are maybe too small but I don't have an issue with it. It's not powerful enough to run systems which truly need a larger screen.
>>

What device and emu are you using? That game should play fine on everything.

I've personally always used Drastic for YGO games on Android and it always worked just fine.

But if you're looking for a handheld to play YGO games specifically then almost anything will be able to do so. The DS games don't use the touch screen at all (all UI elements are mapped to buttons) and the PSP games are surprisingly lightweight, so you can even play them on H700 Anbernics like RG-40XX H/V.
>>
>>12852320
Also, forgot to write but the GBA SP 101 model is the graphite one.
>>
>>12852321
Honestly I'm really liking the touch controls for Troubadour. Being able to quickly tap different parts of the field feels gud and helps with not having to angle my thumbs into awkward positions on my phone. I'll give Drastic a look. For a handheld I'd mostly be playing up to DS/PSP/PS2. There is Project X Zone that I want to continue but that shouldn't be too intensive if I can run it on my phone with barely any issues.

>only problem is gba games are a little saturated because they're meant to be played with a transflective screen and natural light
The main reason GBA games look oversaturated isn't the light, but because the original GBA screen has a non-standard colour space. The GBA micro has a backlight, and the colours look correct since the colour space is nearly identical to the OG screen. The DSPhat is closer to the original GBA screen, which is also why early DS titles look a bit oversaturated on DS lite/DSi.
