How can Russ even call himself a true retro reviewer?

Stuck between the RG556 and Odin 2. RG556 is appealing because it's almost half the price and has that sexy OLED. Odin 2 is way more powerful and better built.

Is OLED a lot better than the Odin 2 screen? I think it's just going to come down to that for me since I can afford both.

>>10744374
>doesn't test geese's pretzel super
>doesn't land atomic piledriver in a live match

>>10744378
Just wait until the Retroid Pocket 5 X, where they finally get access to Snapdragon chips and those sexy OLED iPhone X screens

>>10744378
The screen and comfort are the two big advantages of the 556 over the Odin imo (aside from price ofc). Even Odin 2 fanboy reddit game uncle said it was more comfortable than the Odin 2.

>>10744378
Ignore the RG556 until there's hard proof cardinal snapping has been fixed.

Can I use a NDS as a mp3 player? What about chinkhelds, any of them has a good mp3 solution while not being unplayable small or fuckhuge?

>>10744396
Chinkhelds tend to have terrible or no isolation, gets interference.

>>10744392
Already confirmed it's a software issue and will guaranteed to be fixed down the line.

>>10744405
>will guaranteed to be fixed down the line
I'd love to believe that considering I ordered one like an idiot, but yeah nah there's no guarantee of anything software getting fixed when it's up to anbernig. The most we have right now is they told an eceleb they're going to have their engineers look into it.

>>10744414
GarlicOS will most certainly come to it.

>>10744419
anon pls

>>10744369
*OP pic is a joke.

>>10744405
>guaranteed to be fixed down the line.
Yeah, tell that to my 353V which was left with broken L2 and R2 support on most android apps and games.

Also the issue seems worse on the early preview units. The latest batch of units sent out seem to have way better range. If Anbernig really can fix it with a software update, I'd consider it superior to the RP4P.

>>10744439
>I'd consider it superior to the RP4P.
You're still using the shitty short Switch stick with poor feedback at the end of the day so no not really.

>>10744441
You act like that matters on 5-7th gen emulation. You're playing super mario 64, not Valorant.

>>10744445
What about game streaming?

>>10744450
People actually do that on these shitty chinkhelds?

>>10744378
Unless the screen really is that important to you, your two choices ought to be the Retroid Pocket 4 Pro or the Odin 2.

>>10744396
Supposedly the RG Nano can be used as an mp3 player but at that price point you may as well just get an actual mp3 player. The RK2023 has surprisingly great sound quality but the battery is meh.

>>10744439
>I'd consider it superior to the RP4P.
Doesn't the RG556 compete with RP4 in terms of capability, not with the Pro? Pro was in like the 4000s or something.

they're called handhelds because you hold them in your hand

>>10744507
But I need more.

>>10744518
...f-foothelds?

>>10744445
Yeah, it matters. Also, N64 had some of the finest analog input, the $200 chinkheld better be able to measure up.

>>10744476
Yeah. And while benchmarks don't tell the whole story, the differences aren't too significant usually.

>>10744525
What are some examples of benchmarks not mattering that much when one of them is twice as much as the other? Not being a cunt about it, I just don't have either device to compare.

Powshittyfags are the delusional segafags of /hhg/
Anbernic fans are the Nintendo fans
RetroidCHADS are the PlayStationCHADS

>>10744476
If you just care about baseline emulation at 1x then it's fundamentally the same thing. If you want to upscale 2x or 3x, then Pro is better yeah.

>>10744532
I'm not implying the 556 will ever measure up to RP4P performance levels, just stating synthetic benchmarks are a rough estimative. Whole lot of factors once you actually run emulators, some favor certain chips, some android builds struggle on load, etc. Again, ridiculous how youtube shills glance over 3 games each system, fill the gaps with these numbers and call it a day. Value the awkward autists who stream for 2 hours just fucking around taking requests, these give you the real picture.

>>10744532
Well I mean when the 556 was first announced people straight up said it would not do PS2/GC. But now that review units have been sent out it's pretty clear it can do most of those libraries with no tweaking at base resolution. Unisoc pairs better with those emulators apprently.

>>10744378
no one knows what you plan on playing with it so your question is pretty pointless

whats the best OS for a Anbernic RG353V?
at the moment i use the base android and os that came on the stock card. I am using a new sd card by sandisk and got my own roms.
i can run n64 and ps1 games. i think i can run Luigis Mansion and Windwaker work via dolphin for me at the moment. i might just leave as is.

>>10744578
>Implying OLED vs LCD looks different depending on the game

>>10744584
?????????????? do you think the processor is the same in them or something???????

why is this so under rated?

>>10744586
What is this non-sequitur?

>>10744582
GammaOS is better in every way.

https://github.com/TheGammaSqueeze/GammaOS-RK3566

>>10744592
It isn't. It launched pricey, it's advertised with systems it can't really do well like N64, DC and PSP, it has an Android tax for a janky build plagued with issues that runs sluggish even if it's better for actually running emulation 90% of the time (as long as you give up Play Services), and finally the 35XX+ obsoleted it on the Linux end even without the sticks. Your post made me check up their official prices again and Brother Zhou is still out of his fucking mind. For comparison, the 405V is going for $138.

>>10744548
Acualreality... Powchaddy is atari. Returd is sega and miyoo is tencent

Honestly, why even keep the x19's chip a secret? It wouldnt suprise anyone if d900, and no way its a snapdragon

>>10744582
By the way, only switch between Linux and Android by ejecting SD1. The stock button combo forces a crash during boot and eventually that corrupts your SD, devs learned that early on.

>>10744620
They're probably embarrassed.

>>10744612
And 353V's sticks are awful. Just get a 2S or any other horizontal at that price.

>>10744559
Okay, makes sense

>>10744592
Analog stick placement

Horizsloppers be like "boy I sure do like seeing my thumbs in front of every game!"

>>10744568
>>10744571
Alright cool, thanks for the insight.

>>10744716
How fucking fat are you thumbs bro?

>>10744728
Have you ever seen a sneedyoo/anbernic fan without fat fingers?

>>10744592
I'd agree with you a year ago when I had one, but after the 2S came out at a lower price with a LOT more power, it's a hard system to justify buying

>>10744887
353V has better ergonomics, RP2S isn't made for adult hands

>>10744907
It has better ergo for dpad centric games, but it's ass for anything with an analog stick. Better off just getting an RG35XX for near half the price if you prefer the GBC form factor

Do you like having all in one or different handhelds for different sets of systems?

>>10744912
If I were less of a poorfag I'd ideally have a small vertislop for all my 2D games, and a beefy horizontal like an Odin 2 for my 3D, but since I am a poorfag I just settle for a Pocket 2S

>>10744378
The rg556 has broken sticks.

>>10744592
The r36s exists.

>>10744913
Yeah for me it would be having a 4:3 handheld and a widescreen handheld with better specs.

Is RP4P micro HDMI or is it USB-C to HDMI? I feel like I remember hearing it was the latter but the site sells a micro HDMI adapter as an addon.

The RG35XX H is all you need.

>>10744507
Based frogposter.

Never mind it shows the micro HDMI port on the RP4P site, I don't know why I thought otherwise.

>be Soul Nomad
>look like a low budget PS1 game
>is as taxing to the 405M as a PS1 game
Feels good, barely even gets warm either. I thought all gen 6 would be borked and melt the screen off.

Explain the unending love for vertislops but the almost unanimous hate for the 405V when it has easily the best ergos of any of that slop.

>>10745262
it's ugly

>>10745120
No, I need perfect Dreamcast emulation at least.

>>10744693
The stick placement didn't bother me as much as I thought it would but yeah, 353V shouldn't cost more than $60 and 2S is still the undisputed value king at $100.

>>10744907
Like fuck it does.

>>10745262
Too wide, too tall, too ugly, design too cheap looking, screen too low res for size, bad start and select placement. Also notice it's the exact same grip since you hate verticals so much.

Has the steam deck fixed its issue with kicking you out of your game if you lose internet connectivity?

Alternatively, is there a phone controller that actually has the DPAD in the correct place?

Is it a good death, or would it be a scam? Other places sell it for 90+ Euros.

>>10745341
good deal*

>>10745341
Aliexpress sellers for flashcarts can generally be trusted. Aliexpress also has eBay-like buyer protections so you're safe if you get chinked.

The EZ Flash Omega kinda sucks, tho. Get a Definitive Edition for safe save files and lower power consumption.

>>10745358
>Aliexpress sellers for flashcarts can generally be trusted. Aliexpress also has eBay-like buyer protections so you're safe if you get chinked.
Ah, good. Happy to hear that.
>Get a Definitive Edition for safe save files and lower power consumption.
Is it really worth the double, or even triple, of price though?

>>10745372
This price doesn't seem too far off.
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005696944889.html
It's up to you how much your save files and battery life is worth.

>i like turtles
>i dont like anal log
>>10744612
is GammaOS really good and esy to use on my Anbernic RG353V?

>>10744625
ty anon

>>10745056
whats the r36s?

>>10745372
buy the definitive edition

>>10745385
>>10745381
Alright then, I'll get it. Just one more question (since the page doesn't seem to say it); is it compatible with the NDS/lite models?

>>10745420
Yes but it won't play NDS games of course.

>>10744507
source?

>>10744507
you just made that up

>>10745385
GammaOS is great, better idle power consumption and power saving mode alone are nuts. Just keep in mind you'll format Android, so take notes of what you had set up.

>>10745497
going to install GammaOS Lite for best performance. my pp is happy.

>>10745436
Thanks for clarifying.
>it won't play NDS games of course.
Naturally. Afterwards I'll get something to play nds games.

>>10745329
Does the deck demand alway online?

>>10745638
Speak English.

>>10744912
I've been eyeing the Trimui Smart purely for SNES and GBC and earlier systems while my Pocket 3+ handles GameCube, N64, and PSP. But I can't justify spending the money.

>>10745638
lol ESL
>>10745652
lol poor

>>10745638
No, you can use it offline, but if you're in Online mode and your connection drops it can do weird stuff

Or at least it did that when I had one previously, considering getting one of the new OLED ones

>>10745440
Fuck outta here soijak.party poster.

>>10745652
Is the TrimUI thst much more convenient? They look about the same size.

>>10745120
>The RG35XX+ is all you need.
FTFY. From personal experience, a 3.5" screen feels a LOT smaller on a horizontal handheld than a vertical one. You tend to more easily notice the parts of the screen where your hands aren't located. With a hori, you notice the height of the screen, which makes it feel smaller. With a verti, you notice the width of the screen, which makes it feel bigger. Also, you tend to hold vertical handhelds closer to your face due to your hand position, which also makes the screen feel bigger.

t. had a Miyoo Mini+ for six months before I "upgraded" to an RP2S, only to realize how much smaller GBA games felt on it compared to the MM+. Now I only touch it for 3D games, due to how superior the sticks are.

>>10744396
Unironically the RG Nano, or if you want to save money go for the RetroMini which I used as a Tetris + MP3 machine for years before switching to the X20 Mini. Afaik you can also use your Nano to store stuff like game saves, sort of like a VMU

I got the RG35XX months ago to test the waters, my last handheld was the original GBA.
Played Super Mario Land, Tetris, Donkey Kong and Pokemon. Anything that requires back buttons is uncomfortable while sitting and unplayable for me while laying on my back, also my hands sit a bit too close, and that comes from someone that finds the GB Pocket comfortable.
I'd say this is only good if you are going to play GB games and RPGs.

>>10745953
Sorry to break it for you but size is not subjective, neither for screen sizes or your dick.

>>10746012
Don't act like you've seen your dick in the last decade, fatty.

>>10746012
Vision is absolutely subjective, otherwise optical illusions wouldn't be a thing. If you hold a screen closer to your face, it absolutely looks bigger, even though the physical size hasn't changed.

>>10746017
>>10746019
>t. dicklets

GG

>>10746052
apologies, wrong thread.

>>10745972
I actually find that to be an interesting alternative for listening to music.

>>10745497
Not the guy asking but I've been wanting to switch my 353m over to gamma for awhile. I actually formatted this thing when I first got it so it's bare bones android no Linux.

>Play games on expensive nice gaming computer
>Feels boring, uncomfortable, stupid
>Play games on shitty handheld sitting on sofa 3 feet away from computer
>Feels fun

Why am I like this

>>10746171
Well, on my case I vastly prefer playing while lying on my bed than sitting in front of my computer

>>10745279
Well seeing as how cfm improved n64 emulation on it I haven't completely given up hope on that yet. Would be neato.

>>10744396
>Can I use a NDS as a mp3 player?
If you're really going to use a gaming handheld for playing music on the go, then a PSP Go is your best bet. It actually has good playback.

>>10744396
Moonshell is soulful as hell if you want a taste of the NDS homebrew scene at its peak, but it's actually pretty terrible from an objective point of view.

What's the deal with the phone holders like the Razor thing and the chinese ones? Anyone had any experience with them?

>>10746293
I have a backbone, its pretty nice, feels well made and it has no discernible latency, headphone port is nice as well. Don't like the Dpad being under the analog stick but it isn't that bad.

If you have a decent phone I would say it + Daijisho its superior to most of the handhelds

>>10746253
I remember using this to replace my dedicated mp3 player with my DSlite. It was surprisingly capable.
Good fuckin times.

>>10746253
I haven't seen that in years, god damn. I remember seeing that every time I'd play Platinum before I could afford it. Good times.
>>10746293
What kind are you referring to? I'm kinda curious as well.

>>10746003
Such is the fate of all vertical handhelds. Sorry you had to learn the hard way.

>>10746430
getting odin wat size sd card is best wanna do wii era and under only ever owned n64 growing up and had 5 games

>>10746451
i don't know

Powkiddy bros... It was our time.

>>10746461
Did you just make that up?

>>10746451
Truly depends on what and how many game/systems are you going to bother to play, I'll say go with a bare minimum of 256gb, 512gb if you are going for switch emulation and 1TB if you are truly going for the one-in-all path

Where's a good place to get a dsi xl that isn't scratched to shit or has a yellowed screen? Its like everyone who's selling a dsi xl has it scratched.

>>10745865

Something like the Gamesir.
I was also looking at the 8bitdo xbox controller clip

>>10744582
JELOS for the Linux side and honestly Android isn't a big enough boost to be worth bothering with on the 353 series devices

>>10746657
please give me the benefits of JELOS. I want to try GammaOS.

Besides GammaOS and ArkOS, who has declared that they've blacklisted Anbernic?

>>10746483
Es real, max shitposted a mockup with this design before. This one just might do gamecube

>>10746897
>Chinamen
>Klingon
More like Romulan

>>10746789
JELOS blacklisted anbernig. Gamma hasn't, he just couldn't get an unbricker going for 556 to start development and quit, he put GammaOS on Arc (though the Arc is just a 353 with different buttons and screen, stock OS is still titled 353M and everything). ArkOS's dev hasn't either, he just stopped adopting devices at all and made up poor excuses about pocketability.

>>10746791
Ffffffffuck, the one time Zhou had me going and it was a shitpost. Who do I have to kidnap and ransom to get a 1:1 chinkheld with a strong chip.

>>10746916
about ArkOS, is it just a one or two-people team behind, or is it slightly larger regarding the actual developers? Who is he head dev guy anyway?

>>10746914
Yes, yes. And the Ferengi Are Jewish & The Maquis Are Latino.

looking for a powerful handheld that can run most games smoothly, I could/might get steam deck if I won't find anything else, but I want versatility, I prefer to pirate and play whatever I want, games from all platforms, pc, ps, switch etc... so that's why I am looking for some chink handheld but if there isn't anything powerful enough I might go with the steam deck, any recommendations? budget around 500$

>>10746902
Ark and jelos are about equal imo

>>10747032
Ayn Odin 2 for basically everything up to and including PS2 and GC.

>>10747003
>maquis
Canon, but not a standalone species.

>>10747032
From least to most expensive, least to most powerful and smallest to largest:
Retroid Pocket 4
Odin 2
Steam Deck

Deck is obviously the only one that can play current PC games, but it sounds like the android version of Dosbox works for at least some PC /vr/. They're all good enough for fifth gen emulation and even the RP4 is decent for PS2 and GCN

>>10747032
Odin 2 has Android battery life but no PC game support. X86 Umpcs are probably what you're after so check the spreadsheet at the top of the thread. GPD have decent devices.

I have a launch switch that's collecting dust. Should I mod it and buy picrel? What's the emulating experience like on switch? Worth noting that I already have a steam deck (original).

>>10747101
i didn't find the nitro dick very comfortable. i kinda had to hold it with my wrists in an odd angle and made my joints on the left hand ache.
try and demo it at a store before committing.

>>10747032
used ayaneo next. gimping the micro sd card slot and only having two usb-c ports means lots of people are willing to get rid of it at reasonable prices.

>>10746565
DO NOT GET THE GAMESIR USB. GET THE GAMESIR GALILEO G8 INSTEAD. The usbc version ia on the left and it means you have to set some emulators in reverse landacape mode. Ita annoying and the usbc dont fit good.

Any Retroid CHADS playing Vita games on the 4 Pro?

I've been debating upgrading from my Retroid 2S to a 4 Pro for the past few days. For anyone here with a 4/4 Pro, are the screen issues actually as bad as people are saying (post OTA) or is it too slight to actually notice in game?

>>10747282
And don't listen to what the evil retroid shills and chadbernic shills have to say about it

>>10747290

>>10747163
Will do. I’ve heard a lot of complaints about the right joystick. I hope the new version is more comfy. I really liked the symmetrical sticks on the wii U and I’m hoping its similar.

can someone recommend a good handheld that doesn't run android? Thanks.

>>10744592
Bad dpad, if I recall. Which is a shame, a miyoo mini plus + sticks seems like a slam dunk

>>10747421
Vita, PSP(with battery mod), n3dsxl, Gpd win

this seals the deal. i really am out.
until a ps3 emulator on android can run sumeragi anyway.

>>10747432
>miyoo midi plus
no thanks

>>10747496
So you don't like the miyoo mini plus, but you want to buy an inferior copycat of it?
....ok. "you do you" bud

>>10747501
>copycat has no analog sticks, is slower internally.

>>10747454
Huh it runs the switch version of Hyrule Warriors fine? No slowdowns?

>>10747294
I'm still playing Vita cards on my Vita. Send help, Dragon's Crown is busting my balls so far.

>>10747510
none so far as of yet. it does hover around 56 -59.9 fps accoding to the overlay, with drops to about 48 when activating your musou and low 40's when loading mid level cutscenes (shader build?) though it's probably just because micro sd is slow. but it's been pretty stable.
i cant get my desktop save to work though, so cant skip to stages with a heavier amount of mooks. ganon's fury was steady 59.9 though

>>10747562
Hm that's neat. I have the 8gb model coming in the mail soon I hope to give it a whirl since I didn't have a switch at the time and I kinda don't want to pay $90 for such an old game at this point.

>>10747421
There are none unfortunately

>>10747454
It's moments like these where the term "underpowered tablet" really hits in regards to the Switch

>>10747565
You could also emulate the 3ds version, I played it and it was decent fun.

>>10747594
Switch is plenty powerful, it outperforms PS3 and Xbox 360 by a large margin. Given that running emulators on that thing is not supposed to be one of the official use cases, games running poorly is 100% devs' fault.

>>10747454
>>10747286
What is it, Anon?

>>10747562
Why even get a Switch at this point?

>>10747620
ayn odin 2

>>10747640
100% compatibility and it's cheaper

>>10747671
cope.

>>10747597
Is the 3ds version the same game but just with shittier graphics?

>>10747441
didnt someone here earlier disliked battery mods and called it hardware gore?

>>10747720
More or less. One of them has more content, you'd have to look it up. The 3ds one has 2d sprite mob enemies instead of 3d models.

>>10747640
It will depends on what games you want to play as some still cant be emulated well. There's also the online component so you can't play Bing Bing wahoo kart or Bing Bing wahoo party with friends.

>>10747676
You cope.

>>10747604
Hey I like the Switch just fine, but it's the most emulatable modern console to the point that even chinkhelds that struggle with PS2 can play Switch games.

/hhg/ is probably the only place in the world that worships powshitty rather than laughing at them like the joke they are

cool baby walked so modern chinkheld companies could run. powkiddy amputated cool baby's legs and then sewed it onto itself.

>>10747738
Because for all of 4chans complaints about snowflakes, no one's likes to feel special and unique like a 4chan poster. You could tell your average anon "fire is hot" and they'd tell you it's cold (then tell you to cope and see the if you call them a dumbass for saying it)

Powkiddy is niche and unpopular, it's begging for 4chan to love it

The Rk2023 is still the best linux budget chinkheld ever made.

>>10747738
Open source and interesting formats, is not so difficult to understand.
Also the rgb30 is great and the best <80$ by far

>>10747738
Keep seething

>>10747798

They make a handful of interesting devices but it's always underpowered shit and most of their catalgue is what the other companies are doing except worse in almost every way

>wanna upgrade my DS ML to a DSi XL from Aliexpress
>found out that the DSi has no auto-load function to go directly into the R4 cartridge on startup
I know it's such a small thing to be bothered about, since it's literally just an extra press of the A button. But it's so weird that Nintendo would remove such a simple QoL feature for no reason.

>>10747823
Just get a N3DSXL or 2DSXL

>>10747826
Those are over twice the price, they scale the DS games all wrong, and 3DS games are all soulless and I have no interest in them aside from maybe Fire Emblem.

>>10747836
Sorry, didn't realize you were an FEfag. That spares me from trying to give you any kind of worthwhile advice.

guys, what IF i got a switch and then, just try and keep up, what if i got a switch and THEN installed android on it. so i can install YUZU AND emulate switch games!

>>10747854
Switch isn't powerful enough to emulate Switch games

>>10747854
You can then try to install others emulators on yuzu and play other systems

>>10747768
Some powkiddy acutally sell well. Definitely not as niche as you think. The x18/s v90 x55 that arcade looking thing and rgb30 were all successful
>>10747813
Actually, gamepark crawled so the dingoo could pick up its scraps as feed so anbernig could do what dingoo were doing with the pandora doing its own thing with miyoo lumping what everyone else did with famiclones but vertislop until that famiclone became an emulator and some kickstater faggot did his own thing for anbernic, miyoo snd gamekiddy could get in on that and finally put on their walking shoes and coolbaby was still in the crib reselling and making famiclones and ridiculous looking devices until they rebranded as powkiddy and powkiddy kinds started retroid with the pocket 1 until retroid said, "fuck were doing this on our own" and they immediately started with running shoes when they stopped working with powkiddy and its at this point you realize powkiddy has running shoes but their shoe laces constantly get untied.

what is the cheapest chinkheld that can emulate snes at full speed? i'm so sick and tired of psp not being able to emulate even PAL roms it full speed. it always takes a dump when there is any transparency effect where you either have to turn frameskip or use speed hacks like simple pallet writes (which makes graphics look bad) or removing transparency altogether (which removes fog effects) to get around it
anyone who defends psp is full of shit. it's garbage hardware by today's standards. it has no benefits as even psp games themselves can be emulated now, not to mention psp library is trash that consists of inferior ps2 ports anyway

Now that I think about it. How come powkiddy and data frog are the only one's with mascot's? Everyone else is just letters.

Fucking powkiddy, its a gamble on what you get.
Got an x70, used and cheap of course.
Its shit, no options, stuttering and picture fucking stretched over 7".
Try system upgrade anyway > insta brick.
What the shit can i do with it now?

rgb30 on the other hand. Best gameboy ever, all hail the omniscale.

>>10747836
shining force mogs fire emblem

>>10747918
True except the last part. Gladiator begins is LUDO and the only shit psp games were ps2 ports because the ps2 was mostly shit. Lmao!>>10747918
>it has no benefits as even psp games themselves can be emulated now
That's every 6th gen system except maybe the xbox
>But dual screen
Phone with bluetooth controller or the ayamemyo, BITCH.
But to answer your question, cheap shit does snes fullspeed with no problem for some time. Vertical? R36s (38 on a good day). Hori? M17 (31 most of the time). Both do snes fullspeed even without cfw, but for the love of fuck, put cfw on the m17.

>>10747927
>bluetooth controller
way too much input lag. it's literally impossible to play any difficulty smw romhacks with how awful it is. it's good 1 second delay on that thing
like i know i just shat all over psp. but if i had a choice between bluetooth controller and psp when it came to smw romhacks i'd choose psp in a heartbeat (lot of romhacks work on it still) because at least it doesnt have input lag, so the damn hack is playable (assuming creator didnt put any transparencies into the romhack)

>>10747937
It can be minimized on controllers with non shit bluetooth, but that's sadly not really a thing for telescopic. I'm pretty sure I saw a tablet with the connector on the side, so you can play ds games that way without minimal lag, but didn't know the name. I just remembered there's the e6 for another cheap handheld, but the dpad looks like death.

>>10747918
>i'm so sick and tired of psp

The steam deck is better at everything the switch does other than play switch games online.

Its a better single player switch than the switch
IMO mod the switch and sell it or gift it to someone else

>>10747919
Because mascots are for cheap knockoff companies that don't have faith in their name alone since their name isn't synonymous with quality so they use a cute little character to appeal to the lower IQ consumers

>>10747918
Almost anything that is popular in these threads will do what you want

RG35xxH or 351PS would be my pick

>>10747937
>>10747948
Just use the plug in controllers like that razer one

Has the RG556 dethroned the Odin 2 yet or are AYNiggers still clinging onto false hope?

>>10748050
He's not entirely wrong, you can do one or the other well or you can compromise on both and make something that isn't too great at either.

It dethrones the RP4 and maybe the RP4P. Odin2 is a different price bracket.

Pocektablilty is lame target in my opion. Who's really surfing a Retroid pocekt 4 in their pockets, with the joy sticks and shoulder buttons sticking out? At that point you already need a bag to carry it, so you should just go with the 556 or Odin 2 and get the benefit of a bigger screen and handles.

>>10748229
Yeah I never understood this. I don't want my handhelds to be xbox hueg like the deck, but I'm not going to stuff a gameboy in my pocket especially when I already have a phone either. Even as a kid I always had a case/bag to carry my GB/GBA in. I feel like it's a modern hipster zoomer thing to be obsessed with "pocket sized" handhelds.

>>10748417
I hope so too. I would've kept it but then some Anon mentioned the Odin 2 and I think it I'll be a good pickup so I never have to worry about buying another handheld again. Price is obviously nowhere near as good, but I figured I'd upgrade from the 556 eventually anyways.

Are those really that expensive? what the fuck

>>10748452
Excellent bait
I put one of these together a few years ago (fat AGB rather than the SP though), I should've just bought an emulation handheld

swapping the screen on an SP is a huge pain in the neck, at least it was for me because im lazy. i did re-shell a couple of em, but it was just a hassle.
agb mods are a cakewalk though.
seriously, just get a ds lite

>Still dealing with all the proprietary stuff you were with the original console, shitty speakers, noisy headphone jack, awful battery life, needing a flash cart/original carts

Cancel the order and just get an emulation handheld or buy the kit and do the mod yourself, doing all the fiddly soldering was the most fun and interesting part of the entire process

Friendly reminder to work on those romsets for the consoles you actually care about

>Yuzu and citra is kill
Well rip looks like we'll have to deal with more expensive handhelds to raw power through switch emu now...

>>10748761
What's going on?

>>10748768
They 100% received a C&D by Nintendo.

>>10748768
“ We have come to the decision that we cannot continue to allow this to occur. Piracy was never our intention, and we believe that piracy of video games and on video game consoles should end. Effective today, we will be pulling our code repositories offline, discontinuing our Patreon accounts and Discord servers,
and, soon, shutting down our websites. We hope our actions will be a small step toward ending piracy of all creators' works.”
Millions of 14 year olds and Indians with 600 series snapdragon chips are crying rn.
On the one hand did they deserve to get fucked and pay 2 million dollars eeehhh. But god damn the “emulation” communities is filled with literal children and on android a good chunk of them are idiots. Every time I see this sorta stuff happen, it is fun to see the crying on Reddit and the YouTube comments section

>>10748776
Tears of the kingdom was the straw that broke the camels back, I think Nintendo got pressured by investors to sue yuzu considering how the letter is worded, if tears of the kingdom wasn’t leaked, yuzu would still be alive.

>>10748779
It's always funny to me how people act offended and spin it like emulation is some great service to humanity by preserving history. Yes it does do that, but let's be honest you don't give a fuck and just want to play TotK for free lol

>>10748768
>>10748776
They were being sued and settled for 2.4 million.
https://twitter.com/InfernoOmni/status/1764715664122519689
Note that nothing yuzu did was illegal, and this sets a dangerous precedent.

>>10748761
>legal
I never emulated because it was legal, I did it because it was free and I'm going to keep doing it.

>>10748793
Based

>>10748790
>nothing yuzu did was illegal
They backtraced Nintendo copyrighted software and pirated it online to millions of criminals and even charged money for it.

I only used yuzu to play indie games and remasters so, yeah I won

>>10748802
>and even charged money for it.
I thought it was free to download?

>>10748768
>we built an emulator and bragged about games running on it before their official launches and we also took money for our work on said emulator B-B-BUT WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN AGAINST PIRACY!
Hopefully the next Nintendo system emulator isn't ran by complete retards.

>>10748802
None of Yuzu's developers pirated anything and reverse-engineering is completely legal.

>>10748804
Patreons got access to new releases before anyone else, two weeks ahead, I believe. That's probably what he meant.

>"buy an Odin 2, Yuzu emulation will only improve over time on Android!"
Holy kek, bullet dodged there. Now it's just another defunct emulator like AetherSX2

>>10748814
It will not improve on PC now either.

>>10748818
The PC build was much farther ahead and ran a lot of games fine. Also Ryujinx exists on PC while it doesn't on Android.

So are PS2, GC, and Wii all still good on base Odin 2 or do they only work well on Pro and Max?

>>10748823
They are all good on even on the odin2 base model, look on YT for tests on each system

>>10748807
Paypigs better post the latest version so someone else can keep developing for it.

>>10748823
The truth is that there's no point getting Odin 2 when you can get a used Steam Deck for the same price or less, unless you live in a 3rd world shithole. If you don't like Valve then use it with Windows or Batocera.

>>10748826
Thanks, I'll check it out. I didn't realize there was more than one and while I usually like getting the best version of whatever device, the Max is hitting Deck's price.

>>10748830
>buying some greasy nerd's sloppy seconds

>>10748832
pretty sure the processor are all the snapdragon 8 gen 2 and the only differences are the amount of RAM and storage, and PS2 and GC emulation probably isnt really that memory intensive

>>10748830
It still has a better screen than the LCDeck, and it's more portable.

>>10748830
Nah I really don't like the fuckhuge size of the Deck, I just want portable Wii/3DS and below with minimal tweaking to get everything running smoothly. I have a PC for PC games anyway.

>>10748804
They have a Patreon and subscribers get builds a month early iirc.

I'm still very happy with my arc-s. Wonderful system.

>>10748848
Looks neat at least

>>10748848
>saturn layout
>cant emulate saturn 100%

it hurts

>>10748841
>>10748842
Steam Deck is just as portable as Odin 2, you realistically need a separate bag to carry either of them. For me, there's two categories of handhelds: pocketable and portable. Pocketable handhelds comfortably fit inside average-sized pants pockets and don't impede the user's movement while carrying them.

>>10748853
It was just a last ditch attempt to get Sega autists on board to consume the leftover RK3566 slop, really.

>>10748860
*Anbernic's leftover RK3566 slop
PowCHADDY bought up the remaining stock of the chip and will make handhelds for it until the heat death of the universe

>>10748848
I know it's not your pic, but is that the color you got? I legit thought I was the only one in here who got transparent black. But yeah it's kino and my primary handheld despite the crappy chip.
>>10748853
T820 ARC soon, trust brother zhou.
>>10748860
kek he absolutely got me. I was 100% positive I would never buy another rk3566 handheld ever again before the unveil.

>>10748870
Oh yeah I went for the transparent black one. Would maybe have paid extra for the dual system one that had real Saturn colors, but decided against it.

>>10748768
I'm mad they settled, they should have been sentenced. These retards not only threatened emulation as a whole with their antics, they even had the nerve to announce a paid online service.

>>10748870

>>10748830
>>10748814
Doesn't Odin 2 already play pretty much every switch game on the Pro model?

>>10748921
That's what the shills will tell you. In reality, a lot of games were still far from perfect because the emu needed more development.

>>10748860
Well, making it look like a Saturn controller convinced me, because then I knew it would have good ergonomics, compared to the Gameboy-likes.

>>10748921
>>10747454 here. just tried the ones i want to play the most so far, and i have shit taste, so...
i was able to transfer my save file for hyrule warriors and, when the field is filled with a gajillion mooks with ravio's C3, framerate starts to go down to like 45-50 but does recover pretty quickly back to 60.
fate/extella link runs at like 23-26 during gameplay with bouts of 30 when there's less things going on, also, graphical glitches. turning NCE off didnt help.
Pirate Warriors loads but all the textures are black but when you start story mode, it crashes.
captain toad works perfectly with some occasional graphical anomalies. just "unlocked" toadette's chapter
groove coaster wai wai party is... well... fucking great. aside from occasional hiccups, everything is in beat and i get to play all the DLCs for freeeeeee

i'll try fire emblem warriors and three houses when i get home from work

kind of sucks that development screeches to a halt, there's definitely potential. but eh, i always have my x86 luggables for portable switch emulation.

>>10748921
>>10748951
As an odin2 owner I consneed by saying that the games that I actually wanted to play plays really well (mostly indies) except for big titles (zeldas and some marios)

I sorta explained my position here.
You can look at youtube comments section and reddit too annoying and up their ass. No you aren't cool because you emulate switch games at 10fps on your 600 series snapdragon phone that chokes playing mobile games.

Citra was still in active development until this. It even got Vulkan support not too long sgo.
And zero-days for an emulator just means it works. No stunt involved.

>>10749228
Kek not quite m8, thought it's definitely tiny for a handheld PC.

>>10749172
That's better, but I can't help associating that shade of transparent blue with bootleg controllers, should have gone for N64 colors or something.

>>10749230
Yeah, Citra's Vulkan is recent because it went fucking abandoned with OpenGL for years despite AMD on Windows being unable to run it acceptably at the time, to the point it was something to weight in building new rigs.

>>10749442

most will run smoothly and even at higher resolutions, but there are some more demanding gc and ps2 games that will run kinda meh, but overall if you're not a resolution autist, you'll be more than satisfied. for some fucking reason though i could never get double dash and mario tennis to run as smooth as they do on youtube videos, but it's most likely just me being retarded

>>10749442
Unless it's some crazy deal like $50 I wouldn't get it over a RG556 or Odin 2.

>>10749469
Ok. Thanks for the recco. The only games I'm concerned with performance wise would be twilight princess and two towers/return of the king.

>>10749469
I forget what it was, Taki or Russ mentioned it in a video, but there's a sound option in Hacks in Dolphin that made games run noticeably better for me on my 405M when I turned it on. I forget the name but somebody might know it otherwise I'll find it later and post it. Like Shadow Reloaded and some parts in Sonic Riders DX were unplayably slow until I turned that option on, Shadow still has massive slowdown but at least it's later in the first level and not right from the start.

>>10749524
I was the anon talking about R36S charging speeds a while back, while not the same, check the cable you're using.
For me, it had to go through the right cable or combination.
USB A adapter and a C to C cable, USB A to C cable direct charged fast at a normal pace.
USB C to C no charge, only would slow charge if C to C through a C to C hub.
USB A to C through an A to A cable extension (that usually fast charges) slow, also slow with the adapter. Cheap A to C cable direct? Slow charge.

For the record, the A to A cables I use are from different brands and fast charge with USB A to Micro/Mini and everything else generally too, but only slow charges when USB C to comes in to play. It could be something jank as fuck like that.

>>10749524
Like the other anon said, some of these chinkhelds are picky about cords. My RK2023 refuses to take any energy out of a laptop charger for example, it has to be a USB-C with USB on the other end.

>>10748875
>I'm mad they settled, they should have been sentenced. These retards not only threatened emulation as a whole with their antics

That would be hella worse though. A settlement stays within the confines of Nintendo and Yuzu, if they got sentenced then it would set a legal precedent that would effect ALL emulation legality

Also there was like a two year gap between Odin and Odin 2 anyways.

I'm waiting for the 'eck 2 to upgrade. OLED 'eck is a massive bump but it's just not worth the cost.

Was this a bad move, /hhg/?

>>10749759
Eh not really, what will you play on it?

>>10749665
>Considering this bitch charged my phone in 30 mins, it should be strong enough for my little buddy
Your phone will be using a certified voltage/amp that your charger is compatible with and conforming to some fast charge standard like QC/PD.
The specs for USB C & fast charging are truly fucked, different standards use different voltages, just because you have a right big bastard of a charger or cable doesn't mean it's the right one for the job.

A common fast charge standard is 18w. I have a tablet that does 22W and caps at 18w on incompatible chargers that don't do the correct voltage, like the switch charger does I think 39W PD but won't fast charge all devices or even output a charge.

A simple 5V/1-2A charger with a USB A to C adapter/cable could end up charging faster than your megabrick deck charger simply because it's capable of operating at the correct voltage or at least 5-10W where it could be gimpled at the 1-2.5W charging rate otherwise.

A bit of everything, but most frequent will likely be PSX, GBA and GCN, with some streaming from my pc here and there

>>10749715
I have 1 O3DSXL and 2 N3DSXL and I still like the original because the difference in its card slot made it easier to get games onto at a good speed.
Also miss my charging cradle that I sold off with my first O3DS too.

>>10749715
>>10749776
I'm thinking about shelling out $700+ for a limited edition new 3ds XL

>>10749783
The zelda or the SNES version?

>>10749649
All of us, VS. them.

Just bought a DSi XL, what am I in for? No plans to hack it; I just want a big backlit screen to play my R4 cart off of. I downloaded the English patched version of Love Plus, only to realize how pathetically tiny the DS screens look when turned sideways, so I'm in need of an upgrade.

>>10749803
A yellowed screen and, if it's anything like mine, the buttons will be near flush with the case when pressed down, which I absolutely fucking hate.
Delicious pixels though.

>>10749792
The Fire Emblem Fates version. I love the white/black contrast. I saw a perfect one on ebay a few weeks ago (dual ips, CIB, immaculate condition with a backup oem backplate) but I hesitated and lost it.

>>10749803
I got two of them, they're good stuff although all screens are doomed to yellow. My BNIB one I only do battery cycling on has started to get the tint of doom already and it's been stored out of use.

They're unbeatable for DS games though thanks to the big ol' pixels. The difference in real estate is more than noticeable a huge jump up from the 3" screens of the standard DS.
No problems with buttons/build quality issues on mine apart from the screens.

>>10749759
I ordered one a few days ago too. Current best system is 405M so this will be able to do the rest of what that one can't as far as what I want even if, god forbid, I have to play the games at their normal resolution.

>>10749803
>what am I in for?
just use the R4 to play the games. I saw some people commenting that they regret hacking their nintendo DSi because they are having problems with compatibility in some games

How long does Ayn's 4X shipping usually take to the US? It's been in Guangdong for days.

>>10748563
Gameboy fuckbois always get the most anal shattered in these threads.
>>10749783
You want... A new 2dsxl instead.

Why are people here so anal about the Analogue? Don’t you want your life to be changed forever?

>>10749892
Life changing events are usually negative innit?

Can someone explain what the best filters, shaders, and handhelds for GBA? I basically only play GBA, and don't understand which options are best. I am playing Golden Sun.

>>10749920
Just try them out yourself. I like sabr, personally.

More PS2 testing of the 556. Seems like so far everything works at least at 1x except Shadows of the Colussus.

>>10749935
how much space do I get getting a odin

>>10749920
dot.glslp; it recreates the LCD grid that old retro handhelds used for their screens. I used it for GBC and GBA

>>10749951
Don't know but it should say on the site.

>>10749773
You could've gotten the 4 or 3+ for $50 cheaper then. 4pro is really only if you do mostly gc/ps2 and the harder to run games.

I have an image in my mind of a tiny device that’s super comfy and plays a huge library of primitive games. On the other hand, the retroid looks sweet and I’d like to toy around with ps2 gen games. Definitely DS stuff, though not sure how demanding they are. I do have a deck already. Any reccs just based on overall feel and experience?

>>10750121
Well there's the Ayaneo Flip DS

>>10750125
Nah seems clunky and expensive. Retroid’s probably the way to go, but I might consider something more rudimentary to catch up on Atari/Sega/GB stuff

best android ps2 emulator for rg353v?

>>10750121
RP4P is the best if you want to toy with PS2 stuff. But having played 3DS on mine it's really not ideal due to the small screen size. You can cope by switching screens or making one of them smaller and on the side, but it's honestly a pain. People will generally tell you to just get an actual DS/3DS if you want to emulate those systems, or a bigger handheld like the Odin2 and Steam Deck with more screen real estate.

>>10750161
RPCS3

>>10750225
Nta but I've had no trouble just switching screens on RP2S & 405M, I don't play many games that actively use both screens though.

>>10750269
It's not a problem for me either, but still a noticeable inconvenience even on games like super Mario world when I want to see how many coins I got. It's not a deal breaker, but I stand by my opinion that original hardware is the way to go for ds games followed by Odin 2 sizing.

>>10750298
*followed by Ayaneo Flip

Which chinkheld was THE emulation device for you until you realized that you needed more?

>>10750512
powtiddy 42069

>>10749814
buy a white one and a black one and shell swap.
Fire Emblem is lame at any rate

>>10750161
353 doesn't run PS2.

>>10750512
Odin lite, thankfully the odin 2 addressed all the issues I had with it

>>10750349
Love yourself

>>10749783
It's crazy that I got a Samus special edition n3dsxl for $50 from refurbished nintendo's website

>>10750512
RP2S. I don't need more until there's a new 4:3 from them, others' d-pads can't measure up and are usually placed in the wrong spot.

>>10749920
When I was younger and still played my real GBA, I preferred to emulate with crisp clean pixels.
Now I sometimes get nostalgic and want the grid and pixel shader/flters, but I think it's probably just bullshit and clean pixels look better.

Heck, I can remember preferring clean pixel when I still played a NES on a CRT, so I don't think the meme-lords have good tastes. Everyone I knew hated CRTs and was excited to get an LCD or plasma TV back in the day. MY family was pretty well off so my parents got one of the first generation 15 inch LCD monitors and I never wanted to go back.

>>10750512
Rp3+
I realized I hated playing stuff like Tony Hawk on it. The screen is just too small even if the form factor is almost perfect.

>>10750512
The OG Switch. Fucking piece of shit couldnt handle PSX emulation. Got and RP3+

Anyone know what piece of shit this is?
Found here https://www.ebay.de/itm/404681408960
Looks like scam, only rendered pictures.
But the render shows a stick and an sd slot, so in theory this could be something like the sf2000

>>10750762
some ps2 games work on the rg353v, many vids on youtube for proof.

I have a RG351P as my main console, mostly playing GBA and am looking for one I can take with me at work. I usually work graveyard shifts so it's rare when something of importance happens. So far, I have the Powkiddy V90 in mind, I like the clamshell and read it runs GBC/GBA with no issues. I don't care about fast forwarding games. Any other suggestions? Budget is 80 euros

>>10751013
Why can't you just bring the 315 to work?
I wouldn't buy another console just to play games that your current console can play.

>>10751013
The v90 is ancient, a lot of money for a bad screen.
You can get a just as good device for half the bucks, sf2000 or gb300
But none of them have the flip screen or the convenient bl5c battery of course

>>10749856
Skill issue, mine works as intended. Would never use a dsi that wasn't hacked to bits. Fuck an r4, my sd card is better in every way

>>10750698
They make good games, and the nes, snes, etc have great exclusive games.

>>10744362
Still waiting for Miyoo Flip news.

>>10751128
take me now, magical chicken nugget.

>>10751053
Fair enough but I'd like a more compact factor and if I forget to charge it, I can swap batteries easily.

>>10751068
Thanks for the recs, much appreciated

>>10751096
disagree

>>10751146
Shit taste

>>10751153
liking nintenslop is shit taste

>>10751096
>>10751096
Problem is their main selling lines, Mario, Pokemon, Zelda is major overhyped crap.

I do like Wario and Kirby tho.

>>10750876
Think that's a sup handheld.
>>10751156
Hating snesslop is worse taste.

when will we get something that can run GC and PS2 for around $100? that retroid 4 thing for 150 is very tempting but surely powkiddy can make something that performs similar for less (but without wifi oh noooo!!)

What's the best device for playing OG GB/GBC games on? Specifically I'm looking for something that somewhat resembles the squareish GB/gbc screens.

>>10751153
Sure thing, nintenyearold

>>10751175
RGB30 has a good square 720p screen. There's a vertical version of it coming up too.

>>10751184
ty, I'll wait for the vertical one then

>>10751163
Their games are safe but well made. You cannot go wrong with them. I think most people just hate the obnoxious fanbase more than anything.

>>10751175
The best probably is the anal log, but it's the most expensive. The RGB30 has a great square screen, but the console itself is horizontal. The miyoo mini plus/rg35xx plus are cheap vertical alternatives.

now that nintendo killed emulation. these threads should be pruned and forgotten about
it's all illegal content now

>>10751182
You cannot escape kektendo. Jxd is dead. No other chinkheld maker makes non nintendo inspired designs.

>>10751187
>anal log
it's sold out and buying one from scalpers is a huge turn off. The RG35XX looks great.

>>10751185
Personally curious how it's gonna feel being top heavy. Still tempted to bite the bullet despite having a RGB30 though.

>>10751187
middling is worth inherently less than outright bad
being "safe" should not be rewarded
