Do PSP games look good on a NOVA? That's my only concern with it. Also, can it run Xbox and Wii games well?
How come almost none of the reviewers on YouTube for these handhelds actually talk about the quality of the fucking d-pads?That's just as important as anything else the handheld has to offering, considering that retro gaming is largely played on a fucking d-pad.I want a handheld that actually has a great d-pad so that I can play my precision platformers and do shit like motion inputs on 2D fighting games with full accuracy (and comfort). I don't want any Xbox 360 d-pad tier shit.
>>12908806Russ literally made his entire fame out of testing every d-pad in Contra and Street Fighter so what are you talking about?
Fyi rp5 is on ali for like $120 with the paypal discount and the 32 off coupon
>>12908802>Do PSP games look good on a NOVA?I mean, the screen is big enough to accommodate the black bars, so yeah it looks fine, but surely you own something else than that can emulate psp and is 16:9? >Also, can it run Xbox and Wii games well?dolphin is pretty easy to run so yeah, it'll run wii just fine.xbox on android has had some pretty big strides lately with hakux. I haven't tried it myself yet, but there's a few videos on youtube of people trying out games on the nova with it, and it seems to run most games great, although I don't know if they're using upscaling at all.
>>12908806>How come almost none of the reviewers on YouTube for these handhelds actually talk about the quality of the fucking d-pads?It's like watching a guy review a car, and he never ever drives it. He spends the whole video talking about the interior, and the paint, and the rims, and the seats, and at most he drives it 2 minutes around the block and comes back, then he gives his opinion on all of this random bullshit like we're supposed to care.
>>12908815I'm aware of Retro Game Corps, but I also want second and third opinions from other big channels on d-pads. I didn't want to just rely on one person's analysis. Sadly, that one person is the only person who actually does serious analysis of these d-pads.>>12908874I have a hunch that a lot of actual gaming hardware reviewers don't actually play videogames. For them, it's just an easy career option. All you do is repeat the same format of other older estabished review channels and never really rock the boat with controversial takes that criticize the companies in any meaningful way. As long as you do that, companies will keep sending you review copies of hardware and you can get easy sponsorships.
>>12908780Do I pull the trigger for the Anbernig DDS 12GB model? Is the bag/case worth it for $10 more?
>>12908953Yes bro thats a steal of a deal enjoy
>>12908953the case is not worth it desu I never use mine
the ultimate flippy doodad. can't wait for the V3!
>>12909000Retard
Performan'!
Any not-too-expensive Chinese handheld that can run Steam and play lighter (graphically speaking) 2D games? I'm talking about games that look like pic related, not shit like Crysis or Cyberpunk.And by "not too expensive", I'm talking like 100 dollars or less.
>>12909232closest you're gonna get is an rp5 for about $130 with the paypal discount?
>>12909232post hand
DID THE ALIEXPRESS PAYPAL COUPON GO AWAY?
Honestly? With GBAdhoc, GBA emulation on PSP feels as good as on any other device. Might just switch to my PSP Go as my daily driver for now, since it’s the 2nd most portable thing I own right behind my MM Flip, and that doesn’t run PSP and it’s kinda cramped to play on
>>12909325yup and I was about to get something but I guess not anymore
>>12908953fuck me why don't I see the same discounts on my end?
>>12909325>>12909342I thought it was a daily limit but now reading the fine print closer, it also says until 20k rewards are redeemed and they may have reached that already with how word was spreading about it. Thankfully I managed to snag an RG DDS for $225 while it was going.
>>12909356It's too early for the max limit to have been reached. It's most likely the daily limit was maxed else they wouldn't keep advertising it.
>>12909325>>12909342>>12909356>>12909370It only went live yesterday retards. Just wait for 00:00 UTC for the reset and make your purchase then.
>>12909356You didn't want the 12gb model?
has AI done any significant improvements to saturn emulation?
>>12909394AI !?REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
>>12909383Nah, I don't really need more than 8gb for what I want to do on it.
>>12909394Yes. Look at the yabasanshiro-pirry.>>12908710I'll order mine now. I think it looks good enough for me. Is there any numbers about the latency to compare? Is there any sound cracking?
>>12909429Nigtard, see >>12909379
Just curious, what brand of micro SD cards do you all use? Does it not matter the brand or do you gravitate towards specific brands like Sandisk or Samsung?
My endgame!
>>12909327australian-kun, the aspect ratio is wrong...
>>12909437>Doesnt matterGo ahead and buy some mystery meat chinkshit sd cards and report back lmfao
>>12909430Fucking dumb autistic retard. I don't care about paypal. I'm not getting the RG DDS.
>>12909457Gigantic triplenigger quadrofaggot it's a sitewide AliExpress promo. Read niggerfaggot read!
>>12909437I only use Sandisk A1. AFAIK for highly demanding games like PS2 and beyond, the Samsung EVO A2 UHS-I is the best.
>>12909467Anything sandicks or scamsung A2 is good. Ignore the rest.
>>12909462I don't care. Does it hurt you that much if I don't use paypal?
>>12909475>I DON'T LIKE SAVING MONEYHAHAHAHAHAHAHA the retard is (You)
>>12909437adata has never failed me.all my adata cards i have bought through the years are still working.
>>12909483Yes, that's exactly this. I'm not a poorfag like you, I don't care. I'm actually buying batches of RG DS Plus so you can't have it. It's all mine. LOL
>>12909497>I'm not a poorfag like you>posts in the chinkshitheld poorfag generalOk champ
>>12909440poor box :(
>>12909504I'm selling this cheap shit nigga I don't care.
>>12909523K, and? Nobody will buy your scalped up e-waste. Enjoy infinity chinkshit DS clones.
>>12909394Yes unironically There's a bunch of plebbit posts with the fucking r36s of all things running Saturn games at full speed
>>12909531My business is going great. But an anonymous faggot who doesn't know shit about me knows better. How are you so sure? Proofs or you are just a bitter sperg faggot.
>>12909541I know you're a humongous retard since you should be trying to scalp at the lowest cost so you can maximize your gains. You're just a big fat nigger retard.
>>12909549And you are poor. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>12909550I'm really not poor but whatever you say niggerfaggot. You're confirmed the dumbest le businessfag ITT LMFAOOOOOOO.
>>12909440Simply Fantastic MMMC (SF3100)The best console to play EVERYTHING from PS2 backwards and some light 3D Switch games, most 2D Switch games, Ports etc... Dont Be A Simp!Be Simply Fantastic! ™Simply FantasticBorn For Game ®
>>12909437Kingston are excellent quality for the cheaper price. I got some cheap Patriot cards once from the USA, and they were as shit and died as fast as the no-brand "stock" cards. Also ADATA (purchased directly from their official stores, these are falsified a lot) is VERY cheap while still being lower in the Chip Lottery without being Binned nor Scrapped. They last me as good as Kingston and Sandisk etc. The only real difference is transfer times if you are using A2. A cheap but legit A2 card can be as fast or faster than Elite A1 cards. And last as long in our case scenario. We are not rewriting them a lot, mostly reading them, they should last a lot, even the underdogs.
>Aliexpress sale seems meh>look at the US prices>they're a good 1/3rd less than the UK pricesGod dammit.
>>12909570China tends to absorb Tarifs and Taxes. They are like the non-Satanic version of Western Dynamic Pricing geared at squeezing you per your user profile.China, instead, seems to adapt to target countries' levy policies. In Mexico when Trump literally forced Mexico to add Tarifs to China (to act as a block etc etc, while pressuring us with "Narco Terrorism" and Invasions a la Venezuela), AliExpress added discounts directly proportional to the recently added tarifs. So we ended up paying the same we would have paid without tariffs. For me this is a fair discount, a courtesy, for them to pay shipping and tariffs. Like a business partner paying for dinner over which a deal was made. Very Honourable. How is UK in that regard? I gather the EU has absurd tariffs, but I do not know about discounts there?Maybe these courtesies are a way to balance the Purchase Power Parity of Developing Countries instead?
>>12909582No tarrifs on Electric cars so Chinese electric cars are incredibly cheap. You can get an decent electric car in the UK with for £22K inc. tax ($28k-ish). For consumers anything over £135 gets hit by duty + vat + bullshity handling fee that works out to be about a 25% surcharge. I think one of the reasons these are all expensive in the UK is Anbernic and Retroid both use the UK warehouse so these fees get baked in (with a little added on top) if you order from China they'll take the customs and VAT off and you roll the dice on if it'll get stopped and charged or not.
>>12908802Yes, I was suspicious at first and kept the RP3+ just for PSP, but it's not needed, the Nova is enough.
If all I want to do is play games up to Wii U era, is there any actual reason to get the Thor over the Duo?
>>12909904You always want to aim higher than your actual goal.
>>12909904It's so you can comfortably ignore any issues that might come up due to a lack of power, particularly if you're the type of person who likes internal upscaling or shaders.
Friendship has ended with gamehub lite, now hakux is my best friend Should have let me play Thief 3 you bastard bitch fucking
>>12909979kek
>Paypal discount is limitedI'm just going to gamble and order a RG DDS now. I doubt it's going lower on 11/11 anyways. Pray for me brehs.
>>12910074Nigger just fucking wait an hour, it will reset at 00:00 UTC.
>>12909979I've been hearing some serious 'that guy' claims on that one, like T618 running stuff at 60fps.
>>12910079Read nigga read.
>>12910074Thanks for beta testing
>>12910080I actually wrote a blogpost about hakux before deleting it and posting that instead. On RP4P it's surprisingly less intensive than Nether and I think even Dolphin in that the device heats up less and drains less battery. There's some graphical glitches like some level geometry flickering in Fable, the screen completely borking when you air dash in Gunvalkyrie, and I haven't played Halo yet because it crashes if you don't have an earlier version of the app. Otogi and Thief 3 have had no problems so far though, so it's a case by case basis like usual. I would not be surprised if T618 could run at least a few games, I was playing FF10 and KH and Soul Nomad on my old 405M.
That shill video where the RG Rotate's screws loosened and scratched the casing has officially cured my need for the device, now I can go back to pining after slightly less frivolous toys
Anyone got anything to say about RG Cube XX? Seems good enough and XXes are usually reliable from what I can tell. Friend wants to get into vidya, figured I'd get him something cheap with decent ergos since he has big hands.
>>129101211:1 isn't great for getting someone into games, but the tallness adds a lot to comfort and it's the best feeling XX by far with lovely membrane based shoulder buttons.
>>12910121it's good but for a general use all purpose device perhaps it's best to go for something with a screen with a less specialized aspect ratio
>>12910121ayaneo pocket air mini is similar in size/price but with better aspect ratio
>>12910190>>12910194>>12910242Thanks. I'm mainly into it for comfort but I think 1:1 is also fine since it's a 1:1-size-fits-all. Also I don't really care if it slightly bothers him, he will have to get over it since I'm only doing this months or a year or so after he told me I ought to get him into vidya but he's spent most of his life looking down on video games and only recently feels like he's missing out due to how popular games are. He tried games out at like the arcade or something decades ago and ragequit and losing hurt his baby girl feefees so he adopted an attitude against games ever since and he's not my friend he's my dad so this has added some extra vitriol toward his sudden change of heart. I originally got him a used VR headset as an in-joke to myself because he originally stated he could only get into vidya if it was VR (narcissist) and I knew the novelty of the gimmick would eventually wear off since it would not provide a true in-depth gaming experience like real games would. Now it's a few years later and I will graciously allow him the privilege of getting into video games for real this time.
>>12910261the aspect ratio issue can be lessened by getting a black CubeXX so it minimises the black bars for non 1:1 systems. Are you going to curate the games for him? If so I'd recommend sticking to the top 20 for each platform so he doesn't get overwhelmed
>>12910261>but I think 1:1 is also fine since it's a 1:1-size-fits-all.Yeah, but that's the thing, it doesn't. 1:1 is more of a tinkerer's AR, better fitting PAR SNES and GB/GG. Maybe consider the PAM if it's actually close in price like the other anon says, he might have a difficult time with 3.5" 4:3. The caveat is you'd have to actually set it up for him, being android.
>>12910261>1:1 size fits all
>>12910280>>12910306Tinkering is half the fun so yeah I'll be doing all the setup and picking the easiest games to get into, plus I'll help explain the games and write up how each console's controls translate to the device's buttons. Sorry, that was all a given in my head.
>>12909429I'd like to add that GammaOS also updated their builds and they're currently better than BananaOS so if latency is your goal then that's the way to go. Sound cracking hasn't been a thing I've come across on either Gamma or Banana unless it's something exceptionally taxing like 2x 3D + threaded 3D + shaders + run ahead (If on Gamma). Normal play should not have this.
I'mma be honest, I kinda miss the "performative gaming" meme, but time moves on.
>>12910408It stopped being a meme years before the spammer found this general
>>12909232RG35xx probably runs the lighter shit.But there isn't a Zexion port yet.https://portmaster.games/games.html
>>12909471I've had fake SanDisk cards before. I hear PNY and Kingston are okay. We really need to make a community spreadsheet/infografic on all the available brands. From availability to the risk of fakes. I also hear the Verbatim cards aren't bad.

Two questions about muOS:How do you disable the L2+R2+Start/Select hotkeys? I pressed them earlier thinking one of them would be the screenshot button (I couldn't remember what it was) and lost some game progress because of it, so I want to turn them off.How do you disable the "Do you like playing this game?" text that appears when you fast forward when using Pickles, because I just think it's dumb as fuck.
Don't forget to sign up to rakuten for 25% cash back and sign up under a referral for +$50 when you buy something that's equal or greater than $50.
>>12910782>the "Do you like playing this game?" text that appears when you fast forwardHoly kek
>>1291079625% for AliExpress. Without the referral it's 35% but the 25%+$50 is a better deal if you're buying a DDS for example.
How the fuck do you even play games for longer than like 15 minutes on something as tiny as a Trimui Brick or the Anbernic vertical handhelds optimized for playing GBA games? It's literally smaller than my Toshiba portable external hard drive.
Isn't the screen on the Anbernig SP bigger than the original screen on the Nintendo SP?
>>12910804Play? You are meant to tinker for hours with them.
>>12910804I've had to tell many an anon this but the crotch is actually a major distraction while gaming. What you need to do is pull your face away from the other guy's crotch so his penis isn't in your mouth anymore, after that you shouldn't experience any issues while playing.

I got some bullshit for my phone. Should I grind Battletoads on the D-pad one
poopy poop pants :(
>>12910804You primarily play lower-input games like RPGs or TCGs. I tried doing some SNES games on my TrimUI Brick Hammer and I was getting cramps trying to hit X and Y regularly but A and B are perfectly fine. I've cleared Monster Rancher GB and Pokemon Red - Spongebob Edition on it with several hours into Bistro Recipe as well. I think a game like Shantae would be fine, same with Zelda, but anything more than that would be cramp city.
>>12910846Speaking of phones, there are now two and a half telescopic controllers with the dpad on the bottom. Half because that new gamesir isn't out yet.

>>12911103Is that what the folks of Megaton used to say?
These handhelds have skyrocketed in value practically overnight thanks to HakuX suddenly making most of the best Xbox Classic games run 100 percent smoothly. Seriously though, how the fuck did this even happen? You can't say it's just AI helping everything since AI has been with us for years, and yet Xemu has basically been stagnant as an Xbox emulator for the past few years. And even if it was AI responsible for making these strides, then this just begs the question of why AI hasn't been able to make the same strides for Xemu?Anyway, all of this is to say that I'm getting a Retroid Pocket Nova. It's gonna be my go-to device for playing Xbox Classic and PS2 games now.
>>12911427Atari won't listen. They discontinue and use the generic stuff to tarnish their legacy. And much like the hamstrung Chameleon, the Gamestation go was sabotaged too. At $180 if they put a Snapdragon 865 in their Gamestation Go and shaped it like this it would be 100× better and competitive with it's price bracket.
>>12911427With xbox and ps3 emulation finally progressing thanks to Claude and sbcggots obsessed with making android their mini steam decks this is no longer true.
>>12911491>You can't say it's just AI helping everything since AI has been with us for yearsIt's literally AI specifically Claude that's the reason we have all this recently. Switch 2 emulation is already here with mario kart world at 60 fps.
>>12911534So what's the deal with Xemu? Why can't AI fix that?
>>12911537You'd have to ask the developer.

>>12910782>How do you disable the "Do you like playing this game?" text that appears when you fast forward when using Pickles..FUCK xDDDDD, I am not updating from Jacaranda, then. Decided. LEL.For me MuOS was finished since Goose, to be honest.
>>12910814ThisMine play great, pictured. Admittedly my RG280V is becoming harder to play for longer than one hour if I am tired, because I start to lose focus of the tiny fonts. That is the smallest I will go tho, 2.8 inch.But any 3.5 - 3.4 inch device is fine. I am 39yo, and need no glasses though. Disregard I dont choke on cock.

>>12911002False and gay
>>12911483Isn't the duo weaker than the rp5?
>>12911601Driver updates pushed it to roughly the same level.
>>12911601In terms of raw performance, it should be slightly better than the 865. It just lacked driver support at launch. Now it seems to be pushing about the same with the new ones released for it.
>>12911618synthetic benchmarks are crap at determining emulator performance. the cache and memory bandwidth are crap and that's more impactful
>>12911601On paper yes, but it all comes down to driver support.
Does the Duo need more than the latest driver? Anything more like the DDS seems like overkill for its screens.
>>12911073 >>12911169i love 4chan.
>>12911601Either way a disappointment.
Apparently the T820 just got new GPU drivers that change it from "barely any PS2" to "complete PS2 library"
>>12912093I'm really fucking tired of the ai spam in the retro gaming space
>>12912107Yeah, there has to be some kind of a catch to these magic bullet patches/updates. I refuse to believe it's that simple, that you can just throw AI at something and somehow it'll make that thing do things it could never do prior to AI.
It's come down to just these two for me in my twice yearly splurge /vr/ purchase. The question I ask you all: is 4:3 overrated for handhelds? Should I go with 1:1 in order to explore the OG gameboy library and things like Pico 8? As I feel like I might find more novel experiences there these days.
Can I get a dual screen handheled with 2 sticks all the buttons a touch screen and TOUCHPADS?
>>12912557I think the CubeXX is great, but if you're comparing it to a 4:3 it's not what you're looking for. Can't comment on the Miniloong, but the 120hz screen sounds neat. Pico8 blows.
>>12912563On the back maybe. But I usually made those concepts on X86 handhelds due to the need for a clamshell Steamdeck.
>>12912557It really just comes down to personal preference in this case. >>12912563Yeah right here *kills you*
>>12912567>I think the CubeXX is great,your reasoning?
I hate the pink buttons. Why must they put the pink buttons on these?
>>12912584Taller handhelds are more comfortable.Rubber membrane on PCB shoulder buttons which should be the standard instead of that horrible feeling microswitch crap.While not having the greatest colors, the screen is far from anbernic's worst, especially compared to most XXs.I happen to like integer scale GB, which has just the right space for bezels to look good while still leaving the game big enough.Happens to be great at PAR SNES with minimal cropping, and does the exact same 3x integer GBA as 34xx/SP.Okay speakers, marked as the 35xxH's if you need reference.D-pad is a less floating, bit harder to press version of a Sega's, which may sound like a horror story like the 360's but isn't.I can list the downsides too if you're interested.>>12912593Because it's the GB color.
>>12912593SNES nostalgia or something
>>12912563here you go brew
>>12912610The gameboy color isn't barbie pink like the XX Cube has.
Did you guize notice there is a new Super Smash Bros. Melee native port for Portmaster?xDDDDRunning great on H700 Anbernics, I thought only Super Smash Bros. 64 was gonna be ported this silky.

>was about to bite the bullet with my first handheld (Retroid Pocket 6)>suddenly, someone actually made a desktop version of HakuX emulator that's apparently better than Xemu, thus making any need for a handheld that can fluidly emulate Xbox obsolete for meEmulation has been evolving at lightspeed this past month or so.

>>12912885In my research in trying to figure out what to buy, it genuinely is strange to see people actually collecting these handhelds like Pokemon.I have no intention of ever doing that. I want to treat a handheld the same way I treat an actual gaming console like a PS4 or Xbox 360. I want one handheld that can last me a full console generation (so the next 5-6 years at least). In this case, I simply want the device to last that long, because a Retroid Pocket 6 isn't exactly cheap (shipping it to my country [Indonesia] adds on a whole lot of extra fees like customs, excise and VAT).Also, just to add to my previous post: I'm especially curious to get a device that can emulate Switch 2, because I sure as hell won't buy a Switch 2 just to play Metroid Ravenous.
>>12912898Everybody starts out like thatYou buy one. You get it. You enjoy it. Then you start noticing minor little issues that kind of annoy you.Maybe the speakers are a little quiet. Maybe the dpad could be better. Maybe the form factor engineered with Chinese hands in mind makes your hands cramp up after 20 minutes.Then a new handheld is announced and there's some BIG hype around it. The specs look so good. Could the Anbernic ZX58999 be the Ayn Frigga killer we've been sorely waiting for?Before you know it you've placed a preorder. Repeat four months later.
>>12912093BasedMaybe the t618 can get some love too
>>12912908Even if I do end up falling victim to that mindvirus, it's not like I have the money to feed that addiction. It took me a few months of not eating out and just pinching pennies to even save up enough spare dosh for the RP6. I think I hope I'm safe.
the only endgame is original hardware
>>12912872Off-/vr/ but the sheer amount of ports on the 3DS due to all this has surprised me, especially when it comes to stuff like Pokemon or Zelda. Even SM64DS native ports to the thing that are now the definitive way to play those versions, it's incredible.On topic just seeing how BananaOS churns out updates like every three days that enormously improve DS emulation on the RG DS is astounding to me. We went from a month ago MelonDS being the only thing anyone could realistically use to play DS games at all to now having these piss weak devices essentially have native touch and input latency, 2x internal upscaling, no frame drops, and incredible UI capabilities. Like, the dude just added some sort of program that hooks into DS Pokemon games when you launch them that actively tells you the % chance to catch stuff, what's on the route, EVs, IVs, etc on top of having a native PKSM built into the thing.Obviously there's caution to be had with these vibecoded OSes and ports, but when there's actual coders behind it who are able to "tame the beast" so to speak the sheer amount of output is astounding.
>>12912941It depends...for some consoles like N64, PS2 and Saturn there's nothing like playing on real hardware on a shitty CRT even with their limitations. But for the Game Boy family, Dreamcast, PSP, its frankly better to play on a decent chinkheld. Even on 3DS the screens weren't great for the time and they only get worse with age, the main advantages are not dealing with shader comp, infinitely less input lag and not needing active cooling.
>>12912951n64 and saturn play perfectly on fpgathe original screens are best, it's like saying emulating snes on a hd tv with 20x upscaling looks better than crt. it doesnt.
>>12912557The miniloong has 120hz and proper usb c charging, go with that
>>12912956Nah, 3DS games definitely look better upscaled and on any other panel. There's games that look like ass no matter what like the Warriors games and Xenoblade Chronicles, but there's also other games with more detail that were clearly meant for resolutions besides 240p.
>>12912968the edgecases of there being a few 3ds games that subjectively look better isnt worth the latency, the lack of 3d, the price, and the unreliability of chinkhelds
>>12912631Fuck, I should have chosen 34xxsp instead of RGSP...
Speaking of the Cube XX and 1:1 screens in general, I wonder how many of these recomps actually support arbitrary resolutions? If they support widescreen it should be easy enough to support "narrow screen". Maybe I'll test a couple of them.
>>12912908I think it's more that people just want to consoom and think that buying retro game handhelds and chasing their childhoods will make them happy again (it won't). Look at all the redditors who clowned on the RGDS for being underpowered, but are now buying up the pocket duo because it's the latest offering from Retroid. Consoomerism never ends.
I bought a 34xx and I haven't bought anything else.
>>12912908Straight up, I cannot afford to buy one of these things more than once a year unless we're talking the sub-$40 models. And I think that's probably true for the vast majority of buyers. The collectors are a small, but vocal minority.
>>12912981And I think that I barely play Ports, and would love the perfect silver clone of my High School Hand Held... Both have their own thing going on.
>>12912898I wish I was able to feel the same way, I almost did but I keep getting chinked.
>>12913049The hobby used to be a lot more affordable like 3 years ago before Trump did his thing unfortunately. I genuinely do not understand how people buy every new AYN/Retroid devices these days. You hit +$1000 pretty quickly and the only cope is>It's still cheaper than other hobbies like low fuel motor sports xDD
Should I?
>>12913049The handhelds which have become outdated go for pennies on ebay.
>>12912981You don't need taunts or an instant smashing stick.
>>12913049There's nothing wrong with that.
>>12913092Buy 2 in case one breaks
How much would a used retroon g2 be realistically worth?
>>12913090You could have boughted an RP5 for $120 a few days ago
>>12913213I'd buy that for a dollar
>>12913039Never seen one that wasn't 16:9, probably because that's the only aspect ratio hack available to be pulled from most emulators, though the gaycube ones I've seen don't give a shit about Dolphin's dynamic widescreen hack either.
>>12913049Do you even need more than 1? Again anything rp5 and above plays literally every retro console and a good amount of PC games
Getting files for the newer port master ports that use mac versions games is really annoying Namely mina can't find that shit to save my life kek
>>12913225>and a good amount of PC gamesThat's simply not true. Anyway, is it only my screen protector that gets lifted by the grip? It's driving me nuts and I swear the old one didn't do that.>>12913226Look up portmaster groups on telegram.
This PayPal discount is not triggering in AliExpress
>>12913228>That's simply not trueYou simply haven't been keeping up
>>12913238Nta, I was surprised to see pseud running on my RP4P in GHL
>>12913225How many hours can you get out of this game before you need to recharge?

I saw the new xbox emu updates, what's a device that will run it well but that isn't an ambernic? I used one of those once and their menus/build quality was not to my liking.
Anyone own the mangami air x and do you run rocknix on it? I'm getting one for Christmas and I'm gonna also buy a screen protector, a carrying case, and maybe a console protector as well. I want to play quake and doom mods and was wondering if Arcane Dimensions or Alkaline can run on it without much fuss.
>>12913326Also I was thinking of buying my kids something that can run gba, Nintendo, and snes/genesis games. Something cheap though in case they break their shit
>>12913306Well, anbernig won't run Xbox well for starters because mediakek and their snapdragons are weak other than DDS. You should look up what each chip does and pick your flavor of Ayn or Retroid, but perhaps it's better to splurge on the 8 Elite (or Dragonwing Q8 as they call it now) to try future proofing, I dunno.
So what issues will you predict that the anbernig DDS will have?
>>12909437i buy kodak cards off chinksites because their quality is good, price isnt expensive and they're too niche to get fakes so i know im getting a genuine sd card. You really dont need anything better for most chinkhelds

>>12913395>i buy kodak cards off chinksites because their quality is goodMy 64 GB Kodak SD card just went bust out of the blue.Not recognized in any OS, totally dead.
>>12913223Looking to buy one, not sell. It's roughly similar to an RP5 in performance, right?
>>12908780Looking to buy my first HH to emulate PS2 and older. I've seen many RetroGameCorps videos and the guy is always modding his shit, but I don't have the time to learn it, DESU. How do those Chinese emulators work right out of the box? Is there one you're recommend in particular? I'm partial to verticals, but can do horizontal if that'd be better.
>>12913491It's practically twice as powerful.I'm selling mine with all accessories for 300 bucks + inflation and shipping. (Third world duh) Search on eBay.Or better yet, buy an RP6
>>12913332T618's runs Xbox better than the duo lite and classic>>12913709>Ps2 and olderYou want a t820 device at the very least. The 406v is a vertical, but I reccomneded the h or 476. The slide might be very cheap, but don't fall for the slider meme. Listen to your heart.
Got my Mangmi Air X a while backGood>cheap as fuck, Mangmi ships quick >streams whatever I want well enough (VNs/JRPGs)>lightweight, comfortable form factor>screen looks great for a non-OLED>good for PSP games >not a glass frontBad>utterly dogshit dpad holy shit>gets hot easily, underclocking the GPU does help a bit>performance isn't good for anything 16:9 but PSP and streaming low performance stuff. that's expected thoughOverall decent buy for what it is. I'd probably want to invest into a larger non-glass front handheld. Maybe the Steam Deck 2 whenever that fucking comes out. Thanks for reading my blog.
>>12912557RG cube is pretty neat but I wouldn't buy the xx, I would get the OG, its more capable, the xx is a downgrade.
>>12913092I wouldn't bother buying a non 128 gig unit.
Is the retroid 5 good enough for ps2 games? I can't decide what's reasonable, the 5 is on sale and I don't care about anything more than ps2.
>>12912628Burgundy on beige is a classic vintage computer coulor scheme.
>>12913329SF2000 my guy
>>12913709What the other anon said or a Retroid Pocket 5 or 6. You WILL have to do setup (setup is not "modding"). Just google it like "how setup nethersx2 on retroid 5" and usually something will come up, plus RGC and others make guides for some of this stuff.
>>12914028You can expect to run the majority of PS2 games at 2x or 3x res. It's the sweet spot for PS2/GCN.
>>12914028My Flip 2 (RP5 edition) did a decent amount of PS2, no Nightshade though. Honestly it varies from game to game, even a RG405 could do a handful of PS2 and GC games. Look up "retroid 5 playing ps2" on YT and see what it looks like.
>>12913995XX fixed the dpad placement.
>>12913709Setup is braindead easy as fuck but if you're already making excuses that you don't have time, don't bother with an Android handheld.
I'm looking for a handheld that mainly plays GBA and has a screen with the exact same 3:2 aspect ratio.But I don't want those tiny-ass Anbernic RGSP screens that people recommend for GBA emulation handhelds. I want a much bigger screen that looks good. Again, 3:2, so no black bars please.
>>12914216Biggest 3:2 handheld is apparently this thing at 4.88 inches but it looks like a meme to me. Then there's also the Ayaneo Pocket Ace which is really overkill and expensive just for GBA, and the KTR2 which I know nothing about. Everything else is around the same size as the RGSP.
>>12914223IIRC that one even takes GBA cartridges
>>12914216https://retrocatalog.com/retro-handhelds?filters=%7B%22aspectRatio%22%3A%223%3A2%22%7Dhttps://handhelds.wiki/Category:3:2not sure how big you can go with 3:2 but maybe the powkiddy (RIP) V10
>>12914223>d-pad isn't great on the GameMT EX8 according to RGCDamn. And it's expensive too.Oh well. Thanks for the response. I guess I'll just stick with an RG34XX or SP.
>>12914028It's decent, but at retail prices it's not really worth it anymore, only with these paypal coupons driving it down to $130 or something.
>>12913961I've been considering one to mod and play PSP.What's the problem with the dpad?
>>12914407Definitely something that could be a dedicated PSP alternative.>What's the problem with the dpad?It's really sniff and uncomfortable. Also the material doesn't feel tactile enough to my liking because of the smooth texture. Some people mentioned the dpad is something you can get used to but I'm already partial to the dpad on Retroid devices/PS Vita.
>>12913709>but I don't have the time to learn it, DESUThis is not the hobby for you. You WILL learn it or you'll get significantly worse performance, stick with stock OSes that run like absolute trash, run outdated drivers if on Android, use outdated emulators that come bundled in with their installers, etc. These are devices you tinker with for a few hours to get it how you like it and then don't have to deal with it again, but you DO have to tinker with them.The Retroid Pocket Nova is what you want if you want PS2 backwards. 8GB is all you need, 12GB is only if you're planning on using some heavy shaders or playing PC games (Which, why would you? It's a 4:3 device, next to nothing will be designed for it.)
What's typically the release schedule for new products from companies?I want to get a Retroid Pocket 6 since all the reviews of it are glowing and say it's the best value handheld.It came out in October 2025 though. And the Retroid Pocket 5 came out in September 2024, according to Google.Is this yearly release schedule how it's always been?What are the odds that Retroid might come out with a Retroid Pocket 7 like in the next few months that costs the same as a Retroid Pocket 6 and makes it obsolete?
>>12914585Retroid released two DS devices recently.This is all we're going to get for a while due to hardware parts constraints.
>>12914590Thank you. So I guess they're holding off on the RP7 until maybe the second half of 2027.
>>12914585 >What are the odds that Retroid might come out with a Retroid Pocket 7 like in the next few monthsHigh, out by Q1 2027 probably (with preorders behind schedule). However, there are rumors of a Classic 2 so that might come first.>that costs the same as a Retroid Pocket 6Zero. You basically don't need more power anyway, only tangible upgrade the 7 could have for most would be a native landscape 120hz panel and dropping the glass front, and these sure as fuck are not happening. Realistically, at most, they might move to that matte glass of the O3P. Plus there's a good chance they try to slip in some goofball chip instead of the 8 Elite to save costs, which will hinder both driver support and Linux. Just get what you want now, the memory crisis won't end.
>>12914585Even if a new one is on the way, you don't want to be an early adopter. Let reddit beta test for us as per usual.
>>12914273You mean the NEW V10?!
>>12914585>obsoleteIf you actually play games, it literally doesn't matter as long as you know your use case. You're not going to want to play PC games on a small screen like what Retroid offers. You can wait for RP7 and see a price drop at some point for the RP6 later on.
>>12914628I don't hate the Halloween colors
>>12914632>If you actually play gamesjoin the retrohandheld d*Scord and search 'tinker'youll see over 4000 results of people saying they loooove to tinkerino. these people buy dozens of devices just to do the same install setup ad nauseam
>>12914646Glass house. Discord isn't the only retro community not playing games, in fact just yesterday I spent about 22 hours not playing a single game.
Which of these handhelds would you say is the king of the external video mode?
>>12914649why, I dont understand this fascination with changing settings and installing software. its more fun just playing games instead of opening menus every 5 seconds to toggle something
>>12914291Just keep in mind that if you get the RG34XX you need to do the tape mod on the d-pad contacts or it'll constantly hit diagonal inputs. It's genuinely one of the worst d-pads I've ever used out of the box.
and its not really tinkering if you arent making actual changes to the software you are just changing settings in emulators and installing frontends its expected results. I hate the word tinker its codeword for moron time waster
>>12914646You sick fuck
>>12914291>>12914663Don't listen to this basketball american. The dpads are fine.
The initial setup is fun, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. But then you're done and you actually play some games, right? Very nice pokemon title screen shot, btw
I've found that the only games I actually want to play are quick pick up and play games from the GB/GBC era and for that the XX devices are perfect.Really not interested in doing 8 hour JRPGs for zero payoff.
>>12914662Yeah and for some it's more fun to garden and cook than to play video games, are you just now realizing different people have different interests?
>>12914668>moron time wasterLike vidya? Man you gotta watch where you place those high velocity bricks in that glass house of yours.

It's just a different hobby around the same things we like. >you are being needlessly reductive saying playing video game is the same as looking at an fps counterI would equate sportsfags more to fps counter or loading bar watching.

>>12914814why would you do that to a poor Nicahahuan
I boughted. I guess this will be my end game since I already have an Odin 2 that runs every emulation system, but DS/3DS doesn't feel right on it. Normally I would wait, but with AYN/Retroid just constantly price hiking every month I figured things will never get cheaper unless Dems completely shutdown AI (they won't).
>>12914856Tell us how it plays once you get it
>>12914910Apparently it ships on Feb 1 2027 so if I'm still here I'll post some thoughts.

Well, I ended up spending money than I intended to but I figure a T820 will be able to play the games I want to play (5th generation and earlier) at real 100% instead of "100%". I don't own any other handhelds and haven't for around 20 years since I sold my Nomad.

Why did Powkiddy get out of the midrange-high end segment? Is it just Aya, Anbernic and Retroid now that are the only meaningful makers?

Just ordered the retroid pocket 6.This is my first handheld. Should i bother installing a custom os or is stock with turnip drivers good enough?
>>12915406maybe install a frontend but otherwise stick with android
>>12915406Get Daijisho then download the emu apps (retroarch, dolphin, hakux, nethersx2, azahar, eden, melonds) from their respective online sources and not the versions on google play.
>>12914663Sorry for the late reply, but what about the RGSP? Is the d-pad on that better? I really don't want to have to open up my handheld to tinker with the insides.
>>12915406return it and get a ds lite
>>12913332the RG-55G1 was featured in a video about hakux and seemed to do fine. I just don't know if I trust ambernic.
>>12915428RG SP is fine and an improvement over both the 35-SP and 34-SP. People in particular point out how much better its d-pad is actually, and you don't have to deal with the 3D printed spacers because they addressed that properly with the 35-SP revision and then the 34-SP. The d-pad problem is just on the RG34XX and I'm pretty sure I didn't get a lemon because many people bring up how awful it is.
>>12915448Thank you. I'm gonna get the 34SP. I just hope that the hinges don't give way. The reason why I honestly wanted the 34XX was because it didn't have a clamshell design that could wear and tear with time.
>>12915448>>12915468Oh shit. As I was about to put the RGSP in my shopping cart, I noticed that there actually is two of these:1. The RG34SP (without analog sticks) and 1GB of RAM2. The RG34XXSP (with analog sticks) and 2GB of RAMFor some reason, #1 is a bit more expensive than #2 on my online stores. #2 is still better, right, even with the useless analog sticks?
>>12915406Lineage is a noob trap and inferior in every way to stock, you can run Rocknix (Linux) from the SD card if you want, just need to flash the multi boot thing which is simple.>>12915436You don't want fine, you want more than fine for an early in development emulator that will undoubtedly demand more as it irons out the quirks. Anbernic build quality and QC is not great, you'd expect a jump on mid to high-end but it's basically the same across the board. I'd aim at 8Gen2 devices for both performance and more mature drivers, going budget for Xbox sounds very stupid to me.>>12915448I own two, they both have the same dodgy diagonals.
>>1291547534xxSP got downgraded to 1GB several months ago, if it's cheaper than the RGSP it's definitely not the 2GB SKU. RGSP is more expensive because it's more recent, but it's also better as they fixed the oversaturation on the panel from the 34xxSP.
>>12915476I should add, depending on what you're aiming at the SD865 might suffice too, if you manage to grab one of those daily paypal coupons on ali for amerifats the RP5 is going for like $120 or something, that got very mature drivers as well (in fact it recently pulled ahead of the 8Gen2 on ubizelda, don't expect that to stick though).
>>12915475>The RG34SP (without analog sticks) and 1GB of RAMThat's the RG SP, not the RG34SP. There's three models from Anbernic:>RG35XX-SPThis is the big model with a 4:3 screen and no sticks. It's chunky, has loud buttons, and has its d-pad and buttons eventually pierce the dome contacts underneath unless you 3D print some washers and put them onto the membrane contact to raise it up a bit so it doesn't pierce anymore. V2 models were made to fix the loud clicky buttons and the d-pad dome piercing but not the buttons so you still need to put the washers onto the button membranes. Some stores also still only had the V1 models so the only way to guarantee the fixes was to buy the newer colors (Transparent white and I think transparent blue?).>RG34XX-SPThis is the smaller model with a 3:2 screen and two sticks. It has the fixed buttons and quieter buttons, can't remember if it got the better d-pad than the 35-SP yet. It initially shipped with 2 GB of RAM but they downgraded it a couple months prior to the RG SP's release to 1 GB.>RG SPThis is the model that's pretty much 1:1 the original SP size with a 3:2 screen and no sticks. It has the fixed and quieter buttons in addition to a much better d-pad.Unless you plan on playing some heavier Portmaster games the 2 GB 34-SP is pointless, the RG SP is the best choice to go for.
Seems like the Anbernic T820s are the only real option for budget Ps2 in the UK as Retroid are expensive for some reason. Which model has the best controls?
>>12914964It's where the cool kidz fuck.
>>12914918lel
>>12913872>>12914057Thanks, Anons. I will look into those two.>>12914564>>12914150Yeah, you're right. If it's easy and surely won't have to do it again, sure, I guess it's worth it to learn how to do it. Didn't mean to disrespect your hobby, by asking for the frictionless option, by the way. I know what that looked like.Will also look into the Nova.Thanks, guys.
>>12915482>it's also better as they fixed the oversaturation on the panel from the 34xxSP.I love how vivid the panel is, my favorite screen in any handheld, specially with thick filters or shaders that darken the screen a bit
>>12915517If you want budget PS2 it might be the 406H in terms of controls, but the 476H has a leagues better panel that's also larger with the downside being that it has a glass front.
>>12915517Yeah, Retroid are too expensive here. As if Britain is a small backwater market for China.
>>12915754>>12915517What do you guys mean Retroid is more expensive? Isn't it the same price for everyone if you buy from their webpage?
Give me one (1) reason not to just buy repro cartridges for the GBA>just buy a flash cartNo, doesn't feel the same. Simple as. Plus there are only like a dozen GBA games worth playing and a good flash cart is like $100.>b-b-but some collectard might buy it one day for 10x the price and get scammedDon't care, not my problem.>b-but the battery might die!Has literally never happened to me
>>12915803Repros have worse quality plastic and labels, it's very easy to see in-person.
>>12915803>a good flash cart is like $100.A superchis is like $20 which is less than a decent quality repro.
>>12915507What a bizzare, counterintuitive naming convention. Imagine going from 35 to 34 for your next model instead of the othe way around. Anyway, thanks. The RG SP is what I'm gonna get.
>>12915880The numbers in Anbernic devices are for the screen size.
The chinks at Funnyplaying got the color wrong for my order. A few years ago I got a GBC shell and they also got the color wrong on that, so I guess they have some colorblind motherfuckers working the warehouse or something.Anyway, now I'm waiting for Bloom to release because there's seemingly no firmware available for this shit.>>12915803they're absolute garbage quality. they also don't have batteries, but they will sometimes conk out and lose your save or corrupt out of nowhere. the cases and labels are garbage. get a decent single game flashcart and a flasher and you avoid all these problems.
It's so funny watching someone review Ayn and Retroid products without being aware that they're the same company. The amount of times they point out similarities without connecting the dots.
Odin 3 Portal review coming on Monday
>>12916068Made for picking the soap.
>>12915803>repro cartridgesi'm not gay and poor so i buy original
Just got my RG SP in so I can see what it's like after they had the law passed on the MicroSD cards since both this and my RG DS Plus explicitly said "NO GAMES" on the order. They still include the e-waste off-brand cards but they're completely empty, it's literally just the operating system and nothing else. Android ones might not even come with one. The available usable space was 2 GB while the OS partition was 14 GB. This is also what I had hoped the RG35XX-SP could have been, this is so much better than I was expecting.>>12915803>Quality on the plastic is worse and more brittle.>Stickers are literally off someone's printer at their home and sometimes not even the correct sticker.>Because they use cheap chips your saves will at some point get corrupted which makes Pokemon repros and romhacks completely unplayable due to that risk.>They don't put anti-piracy patches and just put them as-is on the cartridges leading to the trigger hitting an the game becoming unplayable. Since some of those checks are towards the end of the game this is also a very big issue.Years ago a relative of mine got a repro SMB3 GBA cartridge unknowingly because they got it from Amazon and it literally triggered an anti-piracy check so the first stage was unbeatable.>and a good flash cart is like $100.The EZ-Flash Omega Definitive Edition is $75. There is no reason to bother with repro cartridges, they literally exist to scam idiots out of their money.

welp, looks like anbernic direct uses gofo for shipping now, they didn't last yearcan't wait to receive my empty boxes of stolen handhelds, thanks max!
>>12916529I think most shippers from Asia use them now. Play-Asia does for all its orders unless you play ludicrous amounts for Fedex, my last few AliExpress orders have used it, my RG SP used it and it arrived just fine, etc. Maybe it's just for $200+ devices that it's an issue?
>>12916529Only if you live by areas filled with apes like Chicago. Gofo is fine in the New York Area.
>>12916581Two reasons. Gofo is pretty much just speed x and speed x was notoriously shit in Jew York until someone from here contacted the cfo. 2. The spics that delivery for gofo have chinkhelds and chinkslothes that get overly boughted
>>12916574>Maybe it's just for $200+ devices that it's an issue?maybe, i'll be finding out in a day or two

>>12908815I don't trust his take on d-pads at all. He said the Miyoo Mini had a fine d-pad and the one I got was shit. I even fell for the benefit of the doubt, "you got a faulty unit" cope and got a second and it was identical. Same for a family member's system. Russ's setup guides are good but he's honestly a paid shill. I get that his livelihood is tied to it so I guess you can't expect otherwise but yeah never falling for that again.
>>12917116Fucking hell that color, looks like 10 years of wear, dead-skin and dry cum right out of the box, Max is a fool for not repeating the DS Plus metallic blue. And now that I'm paying closer attention, those bezels don't fit the design at all.Also, lmao at trying to market sloppa on the video, can't they hire some gweilo to help them navigate the western market? Retroid is better served in that regard even though Chris is a complete fucking moron.
>>12917124he's not just a shill but he's a retard
>>12917132I actually don't mind the slop button since I can see myself using it for VNs and shit. In fact redditors were circlejerking themselves over using a lower screen for translation to play their weeb games on the Thor so this just seems like the usual double standard hate on anbernic to me.But yeah the colour is ass and now that I look more closely the device seems huge. I wonder if it will be heavy and uncomfortable. The thor is kind of on the opposite end by being light but way too cramped to the point every reddit that posts photos of it has a grip on lmaooo
Someone asked this in a previous thread, recompa is probably the best repository of AI sloppa ports, has android versions too
>>12917132Its not even just the color, the plastics look horrid. It looks like someone at Anbernic literally painted it over with house paint, there's just a cheapness look to it despite the specs it has. Can't believe the Duo Lite might end up being the better budget 3DS option once GammaOS comes out.
>>12917135Nah he is a shill. He never seriously criticizes any handheld that pays him and has backpedaled on his opinions when convenient like how when retroid/ayn were going full on autism with the glass fronts he was praising it saying it makes the devices look premium and feels good, but now that retroid is moving back away from that he admitted he never really liked the glass.
>>12917108aislopped videos aren't proof of shit
>>12917237The comedic timing of the O3P having all the youtube shills walk back on the obvious is great.
>>12917124honestly, just take the exact opposite of what tussel or pederastdweeb says about dpads ever, they are always categorically diametrically wrong on them no matter what because they are retards who don't actually play videogames, but really the root issue is that dpads should have been eliminated for just a 2nd set of 4 individual face buttons on the left side over 30 years ago now
>>12917257yeah sure the switch has a real great "dpad" retard
>>12917132Only antiAItroons reeee at the sight of AI. Normal people see it as a tool like the translation feature would be amazing for untranslated ROMs which I personally would benefit immensely from. Also the only color worth its weight in salt is the white with the skittle buttons. The screens leave something to be desired but I'm sure they're fine. Everything else is spot on for what I'm looking for in a 3DS clone.

Is the Anbernic Arc-D still overall the best for Sega Genesis and SNES emulation?
>>12916974Wait for their redesign. The thing currently has problems. And not just in the design but the implementation of their spinner and the sensitivity of their trackball. As well as a few firmware issues. I personally think a device of that price could do more, both in terms of power, but also the lack of certain controls may hamstring it's potential for emulation. >>12911497
>>12917776The original paddle for the 2600 was terrible so seems apt.
I still hate touch screens after decades of them intruding on my life pretending to be more intuitive. They are not. A controller/mouse disappears in my hand and I am controlling the computer with my mind. This has never been true with touching the screen.

>>1291791390% of them are entirely useless. They take the thing out of the box, make some surface level "initial impressions", do a boilerplate summary of the emulation performance, and never touch the thing again. Few of them put in any more than a few minutes of off-camera gameplay. If you want a good review look far down the list for random people not running a "handheld channel" who put up their personal review.
>>12916793That was there since the t820 devices.>>12916812They don't use it that much. They use it more for cheats and guides. Unless it's super rot wars.
>>12917827I feel the same way. I also feel that way about touchpads on laptops. I always feel like I'm being gaslit when using them, because there are always instances where I am certain that I'm "clicked" on something but the touchpad/touchscreen thinks I didn't.

RE4 and NFSU2 now running on 3266 devices. the entire AI industry has been developed so I can play PC games on my $20 handheld
Noob question, sorry if it's retarded, but should I only replace the secondary SD card of my handheld (the one where I put all of my games) or should I also replace the primary SD card (the one that contains the operating system)? If so, I don't really need anything beyond like a 32GB Sandisk for the primary SD card, right? After all, it's just going to house the operating system. I'm not putting anything else there. 32GB should be enough, right?
>>12918387yeah 32GB would be fine, even a 16GB if you have one
>proudly declaring yourself to be a redditroon is someone else "squirming"absolutely mindbroken redditroon
>>12918390Thank you.
>>12918387General advice is to use your own SD cards for both/either one since you can never really count on a consistently good quality from these chinese companies. You can put the games on your OS card if you want but it makes it more annoying if you ever plan to install updates so a second card for games is recommended.
>puts another buzzword in the filterjarThank you!
>>12918372It's honestly impressive how quickly things are developing. Xbox emulation of course is probably the biggest recent breakthrough (after pretty much being stagnant for the past decade), but I'd argue that improvements in PS2 emulation have also been pretty damn awesome for handhelds. Russ' original review of the RG476H for a year ago warned against using the device for PS2 emulation. Then, just a few days ago, he released a new video showing how advancements in PS2 emulation software have made the same device way better at emulating the game's consoles.I wouldn't be surprised if we get God of War 2 able to run at like 2-3 times native resolution on that thing before the end of 2027.
>>12918407>>12918424>2x reddit spacing>RTHKWAB
Which game have you been playing the most on your handheld?For me it's pic related.
>>12918436finished Metroid: Zero Mission on my V90S. unsure on whether to go AM2R next or Fusion
>>12918387General rule of thumb is to replace both. You can just use your own for SD2 since it has the bulk of the important stuff, but once the e-waste SD1 starts failing it takes down all your OS settings with it. Up to you if you want to risk that since if you mess with the configs and shaders enough for that to be important to you just swap both out. The SD1 will fail at some point in the future or it will gain weird issues due to how cheaply it was made like games running worse, emulators not working properly, missing files, and so on and then the OS just breaks anyway.
My 8yo nephew convinced his mom to get him a handheld and the Anbernic RG40XX H is on the way, is this a terrible idea? Which OS or theme is the most kid-proof? GarlicOS looked easy enough
>>12918562>is this a terrible idea?It's gonna break fairly quickly just because of the build quality if he starts dropping it which, being an 8 year old, he will. You also have to be really careful that your aunt doesn't have USB-C to C cables or chargers lying around the house because that could lead to a house fire due to these cheaper devices not having proper charge mitigation.>Which OS or theme is the most kid-proof?Anything EmulationStation-based because it literally has a Kid Mode toggle that prevents them from touching anything. Knulli would be your best bet since he's not gonna care about shaders or anything like that and not keeping up with the latest RetroArch cores. In general any OS is going to be fine because it's like two clicks to get to any game and they can just follow the pictures, plus most themes on ES at least have multiple layouts to make it easier for a kid to just pick something through visuals alone. Go with any ES OS like Knulli or Rocknix if you want a kid mode.
>>12918581Thanks, I will go with something ES-based. I grabbed a silicone case and a screen protector in a fail attempt to toughen it up and have plenty of spyware usb power supplies from my own journeys with mainland "deals". All in with hard case and a couple sketchy sd cards freeshipped from alibay was $80, couldn't get the cheapest listing to ship to me so it was $61 for the unit, she was gonna spend $90 on an R36S from Facebook ads kek
>>12918692Anbernic devices (and I think most of these things actually, don't think my TrimUI devices did) come with a screen protector by default, you just have to apply it yourself. I think in general the big issues with these things is the buttons stop working after a drop or the screen literally falls out so fair warning.
>>12918562As far as cheap starter handhelds go it isn't that bad desu. Load it up with Pokémon ROMs and romhacks and that kid wont know better.

>>12919237New slop Mali drivers that take PS2 emulation (on T820 at least) from "low intensity games are playable with glitches and that's about it" to "almost everything full speed at 2x resolution and near zero glitches". Think they've seen a similar level boost on GC too
>>12918285>not linux
>>12919285which SoCs are these for, everything that uses a a Mali GPU?
>>12918436Finished parasite eve 1 and now I'm on 2.
>>12919182that's the joke, slowpoke
>>12919345not linux.
>>12919247Melee runs at 60 but drops frames during shader comp, I'm assuming it smooths out after >>12919285I guess the sloppa ports would need to have those built in then

i got my nigs unstolen from gofo, though the package and boxes did receive a razorknife slash that was taped over on the package, which was really sus, as was the fact it spent 2 days longer at the chicago facility than the entire rest of the shipping process combinedi definitely won't ever be ordering any expensive chinkhelds ever until they stop using gofo, nig didn't offer any shipping options at all, so it's not like i could have opted for a reputable handler

>>12918924BananaOS is VASTLY superior in the RGDS+, 1GB is a miracle in GammaOS but not enough to make it truly fluid. BananaLinux is incredibly well made, feels fast like butter on a hot pan, even with an A1 card.
>>12918949Bone white is the Anbernic color that may become more nostalgic as the years go by. Personally, I like the blue. Blue will hold better resale value, if you look at ebay listings the solid black or dark blue handhelds go for more money.
>>12919182You can, considering most pk "shilling" is ironic.
>>12919770HOW DARE YOU.
>>12919748GammaOS is running Azahar on the RGDS+ while BananaOS retards are just asking Claude to slop stupid youtube players for them instead of optimizing the DS and 3DS emulators.
new thread?

>>12918924>>12919819>GammaOSGamma dev just overclocks the fuck out of machine every time. There's no secret "gamma coding magic" or something like that.
>>12919678This has been going for months now??? I guess people who live by Apecago are not allowed to own any chinkhelds.
>>12919678First nig I hear this happen to. Grim.As for my nova taken by a future engineer after being handed to gofo, I finally got a refund minus the shipping fee. More worryingly however, retroid offered to send a replacement with no coverage if delivery failed again. Went and re-ordered from aliexpress with the paypal discount, that was my first and last time buying directly from them.

swear to god magicx is retarded, who the hell wants sticks on a brick sized vertical? they could have at least done one low profile stick in the center I guess that could be useful for one handed turn based games or something
