/vr/ - Retro Games

Got my rg28xx in the mail yesterday, decided to get one on a whim because it reminded me of emulation consoles from about 15 years ago that I enjoyed a lot.

Been playing it for a few hours, pretty impressed with the performance overall, plays some dreamcast stuff, pretty overkill because I will probably just use it for GBC and GBA, bit of SNES AND Mega Drive.

Some cons though:
>let's you add filters to RetroArch, but performance suffers badly if you do
>speaker is shite, crackles during transitions in and out of games
>even my smallish hands cramp up using it for longer than 45 mins
>L and R placement is absolutely awful, needing to be pressed by the middle section of your fingers
Though you can just remap L2 and R2 to be L and R. Without analogues, you likely won't be doing much that calls for both sets.

It does what I wanted for about what I wanted to spend though, so pretty impressed overall.
