/vr/ - Retro Games

Playing through PSO Infinity for the first time and Emilia is now my favourite character in the franchise. It actually hurts knowing Sega speedran this franchise into the ground with PSO2/NGS.

It's done.

>>10837167
Any idea what you will play first?

>>10837191
play?

>>10837145
that's a big 'ole yikesarino from me dog

>>10837145
Finally, I can play Game Boy games on the go!

>>10837151
Not a big fan of how RAs and FOs get the shaft in the entirety of PSU compared to HUs

>>10837151
PSU was an awesome game that was ruined by the XBox playerbase.

>>10837191
I'll probably play a game called "change a billion settings, setup 40 different emulators, download 300 roms, customize a good theme for a decent frontend". It's probably going to take a while to complete it but I'm sure it's going to be fun.

But seriously, there's a bunch of stuff I'd like to play on handheld.
I have yet to try Metroid Dread, pretty sure it runs on this thing. I'm also curious about the Super Metroid GBA Edition hack.
Dragon's Crown is another game I always wanted to try.
I want to give Snatcher and Policenauts a shot, not sure how/what version but I guess I'll find a way to make them run.
Then I'd like to play a heavily modded version of vanilla Doom, again not sure how but I wonder how much shit is it possible to add/change on Android.

>>10837247
I think Delta Touch is a decently customizable source port if you don't want to pay for the Bethesda version, but you'll still need to pay for it IIRC unless you want to pirate it

was so excited I posted in old whoops

got my rg35xxh today, less than 2 weeks from aliexpress to aus (pretty good). feels so premium compared to my powshitty v90 lol. I loved the v90 for what it is. finna flash batocera and add some roms :)

btw do I need m3u files or soemthing for 2 disc ps1 games? I see them in the tiny best set roms but I just built my own ps1 romset

>>10837227
Kinda evens out considering how broken they were in PSO.

>>10837247
>Modded doom
It runs well on the old gpd xd+ so it should run better on your odin.

>>10837550
I wonder if it can run a monstrosity of this caliber.

scraping box art and video takes for fucking ever. is it worth it bros

>>10837145
I, too, like to bring my multi-thousand dollar easily stolen/damaged cartridges out into public when a simple ROM on a sdcard would suffice

>>10837632
same

>>10837632
Pokemon games aren't all that expensive if you're just buying a cart. At most that setup would cost him like 200-300 bucks, not thousands.

>>10837625
You mean with Emulation Station?

>>10837632
>multi-thousand dollar cartridges
nigga that's pokemon red, I got it for 2$ on ebay like 10 years ago

whoa, didn't realize that was a pokemon exclusive handheld

>>10837632
> thousands of dollars worth of collectibles
you're not wrong
however I don't think most users are bringing their entire collection with them
while traveling/playing at work etc
when i posted about >>10837604
I was only doing one hunt at a time
playing one cartridge at a time
the irony = the pocket put in 8 hours of grinding at work over 13 days on my breaks/lunches & was on the dock charging... my broken ass ds lite with a floppy/loose hinge nabbed the shiny today

Are you being retarded on purpose?

>tfw bought chrono trigger for $3 dollars used back in '97

>>10837632
>pokemon on a rom/sd
emulators are great for fun
but if you want to transfer up to later titles you could run into issues
nothing that pkhex cant solve but im
just sayin
even on windows emulators incorrect pid are generated often & will fail banks hackchecks if left unmodified

i do all my hunts on cart only

The ergonomics are so good

HOW DO U DO FELLOW KIDZ??

>>10837718
nice, my Transboy is almost complete~

why are there two threads

>>10837770
Because 4chan is cool platform but its users are retarded and (mostly) homosexuals

What do I buy if I have no budget? Just want portability (even though I'll only be in bed, on the couch or on the toilet etc) and quiet mode (soft buttons and dpad - don't want to wake up my girl) looking to play retro (console arcade and windows 98) as well as stream gamepass (I have it til 2028)
If the ultimate device is 2 or 3 just name them. I'll grab them as I can. Thanks

>>10837660
yeah. through screen scraper. i did like 100 games and it does look sick with the screensaver and in general but man it's taking forever.

>>10837807
Yeah the service is slow but you're best off not downloading shit you don't need.
Even downloading manuals is slow, KISS

What happened to the last OP, why was it deleted?

>>10837809
yep but it was still taking forever lol I'll just stick with box art + video + description. love the video for screensaver but I'll probably never use it. can you at least scrape from a PC and put it on the card? would much prefer that

>>10837812
Jannies deleted it for some reason, no idea what rule it broke. This was the entire thread

>>10837819
keep your shilling to your containment thread
this entire thread belongs on /g/
I'm honestly surprised they even allow it at all

>>10837823
I'm confused, what's even being shilled?

>>10837818
You can indeed use a scraper on PC and either copy it over or write it directly.

>>10837807
Seems like a pain in the ass compared to Daijisho.

If I understood correctly, ES-DE requires me to
>make a patreon account

>download the app
>create a billion folders on my SD
>move all all my games to their new folders
>bind each and every emulator to their new game folders
>bind each platform to its emulator? hell I hope it does this by itself at least
>let it scrape assets for hours even
>look for workarounds to make it your default launcher and use non-games app

I honestly don't think a video preview and a fancier interface is worth the effort, the alternative looks nice already.
Hell most EmulationStation themes don't even look that good.

>>10837840
also forgot
>make an account on the french scraping site it uses

>oh yes, much cope

>>10837869
This may have been a valid argument like, five years ago, but the truth of the matter is that your average new, decently made handheld (not the rs36 game console shit some people here shill) will probably be more solid than your average Gameboy, GBA, DS, or psp that's been used for over twenty years.

If I go and buy myself a Retroid, I know that it's gonna be a new device, that I'll have a warranty and customer service, that I'll most likely be getting exactly what I expect based on reviews. If I go on eBay and get a DS, it's a gamble. Maybe one of the shoulders feels weird, maybe some of the clickiness on the buttons are gone, maybe the hinge is weak.

At the end of the day, as unfortunate as it is, original hardware is becoming a less and less reliable way to play old handheld games, and it's an overall good thing that new devices are being made that can take their places

>>10837908
nigga both of your screens fit into my (touch) screen

>>10837925
You can buy three r36s for the price of a cheap used ds lite and still get a better experience out of it for 90% of ds games you don't need the touch screen anyway. And excluding ds which isn't even retro, every other console is more enjoyable there than in a ds. Let alone portmaster or streaming.

Is not just the materials or the screen or the additional buttons. The software is simply unparalleled to anything the DS can offer.
And this is the bare minimum you can get nowadays.

The anti chinkhelds are so out of touch is incredible. We don't care about your nostalgia googles. It's been 20 fucking years.

>>10837926
>going up 300+ buckarooskis
>side by side when top and bottom is the intended experience
you tried so hard, but in the end it didn't even matter...

>>10837954
Where's my 2 screen DS clone, Zhang????

>>10837973
to be honest, most games in the DS library don't really use both screens, one of them almost always ends up feeling more like an afterthought and you barely look at it/interact with it.
So it's pretty nice that you can resize them accordingly, make the main screen bigger and increase internal resolution it the game has 3D assets.

On the other hand, there are games where you indeed use both screens and you never touch the buttons as they're entirely played through the touchpad; for such games you can always use the device vertically if you can't stand having both screens side by side.

>>10838017
that RP4 looks super neat

>>10838025
that's the Odin 1

Speaking of tate mode, anyone try the flipgrip for Switch?

modded switch on andriod certainly can run NDS
>>10838031

same, I pulled the trigger on the blue one the other day.

>>10837671
User issue. Stop using emulators from 2004 and these things don't happen.

>>10837954
Wait, I read that R36S is shit.
Is it only the analog lever that are shit?
Please explain
I'm happy with my RG35XX but I'm again pseudo-elitism. It's all cheap china stuff, and we are all outcasts from society, we can help each other out

>>10837285
>as the 3x scale should be showing in their info 1536x1344 for 854p.
I love and respect the in-depth post, lad, but I just want to clarify my first pic was actually at 1.75x res. I made it kind of confusing with the wording, but I was trying to say that 3x res is when it starts to look okay to me, but my RG 556 can't handle that much upscale when I'm also using the 60fps patch. So ultimately I settled on 1.75x upscale actually playing on 1.5x now, second area was starting to give me a lot of dips

>>10837145
I did this when I had a supaboy because I had one of the first run of units that wiped the save files of actual SNES cartridges, but it didn't wipe the save files of games played on the Super Game Boy. I honestly don't even remember what happened to the piece of shit, and I never bought a single product from Hyperkin again.

slow closing shifts at work will now be based

>>10833952 here. Retroid got back to me and are sending me a replacement screen.

fucking hell brother zhou please just give me an rg arc with a stronger chip already

i have pokemon gold cartridge battery is dead but works from last time i checked. what's the realistic value? sticker is good condition.

>>10838343
actually, sticker is kind of beat up.

Good evening lads
Hope you’re having a wonderful day.

I’ve got this conundrum where I have a ps4 pro, Mac with openemu, vita, DSi, n3ds, n2dsxl, genesis mini, snes mini, wii
(Used to have a steam deck which I got rid of)

but i cannot stand playing games that were not “meant” for their original hardware, pr lor related hardware
I can only play psp games on vita, nes games on my snes mini, etc
One issue that I have, is that my tism blocks me from fully enjoying my GBA games on my DS systems because of the black screen below - and I haven’t seen anything related to a fix for that

What’s a reliable system I can get for GBA games only?
I’ve been looking at the new Anbernic 35XX Plus, especially because of the advertised 8 hour battery life, but the 4:3 screen is of concern to me. 3:2 screen would be preferable to avoid black borders.
Any way to mitigate that? Maybe it’s not that noticeable when actually playing?

While I’m here, how do I mitigate this kind of tism when it comes to the n64? I’d love to avoid paying for 2 Wii classic controllers or 2 GameCube controllers.
I feel like I just have to bite the bullet and install retro arch on my ps4

I’d also get a ps classic for ps games if it wasn’t for the controllers that it comes with.

Cheers lads

>>10838343
Nothing.

>>10838360
PS….!!!!
I would love it if the screen of said hypothetical 3:2 machine was as large as the 35XX plus
Don’t actually enjoy holding a screen 5cm from my face to see anything

>>10838360
huh?

>>10838383
I reread my own post several times, and then showed it to my friend
It’s perfectly understandable, there’s no need to be like that

>>10838360
>>10838380
>What’s a reliable system I can get for GBA games only?
It's my time to shill the TrimUI Smart Pro! With an almost 5" 16:9 screen like the vita GBA will be between 3.9 > 4.4" scaled without too much wasted space. Good ergonomics, a beeg enough battery. Big enough but not too big, think of it as something akin to playing DS games on a DSi XL vs a standard DS/DSL
>3:2 screen would be preferable to avoid black borders.
However same as the other letterboxing anons who have crippling autism about letterboxing, you'll always have to compromise.
Best bet will be searching the device lists to see if a 3:2 screen exists and then going for that.

Your mental block on systems on systems is on you though.
I've been using a PC at home to emulate for years and so long as the content is scaled appropriately had no issues with which controller or logo is around me.

>>10838441
>>10838360
Also since I still have the tab open and didn't want to refer to my excel sheet. Have this from Inman's site to demonstrate the scaling.
If you need an idea of the size, scale it so that it would meet the same dimensions on screen or via prinout and slap it on top of a GBA or something.

>>10838360
>the 4:3 screen is of concern to me. 3:2 screen would be preferable to avoid black borders.
You can use bezels to fill up that little space, it's not that bad

>>10838378
guess i'll just throw it away then

>>10838167
>Wait, I read that R36S is shit.
>Is it only the analog lever that are shit?
People complain about the dpad but that can be kinda fixed if you don't mind opening, otherwise just the CPU is 3326. Back buttons are a bit stiff/loud but again mods. If you're going from 3.5 to 3.5" vertislop at a similar level though, you should get it to fuel your need to consooom.

On other things, I finally managed to run the port of sonic mania on the MM+ I was missing some files

>>10838456
Good.

>>10838450
Is the power LED bleeding through the screen?

>>10838484
Nope, it's part of the bezel itself, here is a screenshot directly from the MM+ to have a better view of it

>>10838167
The R36S is low budget and the lowest quality people are willing to deal with. Its issues with the d-pad are no greater than the issues with the RG35XX d-pad, same fix, and while doing it the minor issue with the X and A buttons or the Y and B buttons being connected can be simply fixed by cutting the curved link between them. These are both extremely minor however, the only real issue with the build are the shoulder buttons. All four shoulder buttons are awful, the worst in the industry. They WORK, but they're so stiff and uncomfortable.

Emulation-wise it's better than the RG35XX in every way and can emulate more systems the RG35XX can't even touch, like PSP, DreamCast, and N64. Even the Pi port of Super Mario 64 can't run on the RG35XX, but you can play the original Super Mario 64 rom on the N64 emulator with the R36S.

>>10838490
And here is another one without any bezel or overlay

>>10838495
>black borders
aaaahhhh my life threatening autism
spoiler that shit man

>>10837781
98 can be a tall order, look into PS2 able chinkhelds.

>>10838464
Same as Portmaster, yeah? Try this for Mania Plus. You'll need to source a Plus Data.rdsk file.

https://files.catbox.moe/9k2zhw.zip

I too thought I preferred bezels once. Then I realized that each time the screen went black during a map transition or whatever, the content would go black, but the bezels would just stay there, sticking out like a sore thumb. So then you’d have the black physical bezel, followed by the colored digital bezel, followed by the black in-game screen. I now prefer bezels off, if only because the WHOLE screen turns black each time the game does, which is more times than you think.

>>10838490
Why? Not a single Game Boy had a power LED there, and it wouldn't have bled through the opaque bezel either.

>>10838530
>Same as Portmaster, yeah?
Doesn't seems like it, putting those files in broke the thing and yes, I'm using a sonic mania plus Data.rdsk

>>10838569
Idk, I didn't make it I'm just using it, if you know about another bezels would be nice if you shared them

>>10838569
It’s meant specifically for the transparent black Miyoo Mini, where there is a green power LED up top where, if that bezel was physical, it would’ve shone through.

>>10838576
oh
ew

They called me a madman...

>>10838540
This is why you should only use mostly black bezels.

I check in on this thread every few months now ever since I got my Galileo G8.

2 gamesir x2 bluetooths for the LG LTE premier pro I use. (Up to snes basically)

1 Galileo G8 with my LG stylo 5.

The X2 controller has lasted me 3 years so far and still works great.
Got the G8 around christmas and I always compare it to the sturdiness of an xbox conroller. Love it and gonna buy another.

I probably burned through 150$ on what couldn't be returned in my trial and error with other controllers. Hindsight being 20/20 but that's how it is with niche products.

About 1/4th of the way though persona 1. Love the game but to me it's biggest downfall is a lack of quality fusions that can be made. You're tied down to a very few choices per character but with the complexity of he fusion system you think thwy would have put more reward into it for the effort.
Also started up golden sun for gba some time ago and it's pretty cool; I get the hype now.

Somewhere down the road I will need something stronger than my current devices if I want to play gc/ps2 mobile at which point if I were to go with a handheld; I think it'd be the rp4 with 8gb ram. Alteratively; perhaps I'll get lucky and find a solid flagship phone for cheap.

>>10838085
>buys another one for 30 bucks in 10 years while your screen is enveloped by piss yellow
okay?

>>10838682
what's the name of that bezel?

>>10838712
It's the one that comes in the Miyoo Mini bezel pack, just google it and you should easily find a download. Good for any 640x480 device like the 2S.

Retroid Pocket 2SS with 4:3 display and Dimensity D900 when?

>>10838674
kek

>>10838726
Only worth it if they could get a hold of the bigger 4:3 screens Anbernig has

>>10838316
I wouldn't mind shitty micro handhelds if they at least had a 1:1 screen for game boy. I'm not going to play snes on this thing.

>>10838738
Eh, I feel like the opinions about 3.5" displays being too small are overblown. Most of retro games are designed so that text can be read even on a small 14" CRT from about 2 meters away. Viewing a 3.5" display from 0.5m away is pretty similar.

I am still in the middle of researching but i'm highly considering the Odin 2. I don't plan to play any console past sixth gen but i also already have a Galaxy Tab 9 ultra which seems to have the same processor as the Odin 2. I'd prefer something more handheld because my tablet is massive so is the Odin 2 going to be my best bet? Also how difficult is it to use the wireless features on a handheld so i can trade pokemon with some friends in older games?

>>10838540
I don't even know how to turn on bezels.

>>10838493
>Even the Pi port of Super Mario 64 can't run on the RG35XX

What's the point of Retroid Pocket 4 Pro? It's $265 USD after shipping and taxes here in Europe, and that's getting very close to the used 64GB Steam Deck territory. In my mind smaller devices should also be cheaper than bigger devices because they need less materials to manufacture and use cheaper ARM chips. It doesn't make sense to pay this much for something that totally locks me out of PC games and some systems where only x86 emulators exist like Xbox, Xbox 360, PS3 and WiiU just because I can put it inside my pocket.

>>10838874
>It's $265 USD after shipping and taxes here in Europe
skill issue. First thing I would do is not live in yurp, and second thing I'd do is get the RP4 instead of the RP4P. wala, $165 USD shipped, $100 less than what you're paying for a Pro.

>>10838839

No reason to even take those carts with you and risk them getting lost when you can hack the DSi and play games from the SD card.

>>10837167
I bought the first one on a whim a few weeks ago while it was on sale. Emulation wise is a great device so I'm sure odin 2 is absolutely killer. But can I say, I do not think I'm going t be enjoying play certain games on this thing. Ergonomics r a shit with this thing

>>10839109
the ergos absolutely fucked my shit up and is a big part of why I sold it. They honestly would've been better off just making it a generic round rectangle.

>>10839036
No

>>10838839
>that giant top screen and itsy bitsy bottom screen
fucking lol

>>10838774
If that's how you feel the why the fuck do you need a stronger device? You ain't going to see shit on anything PS2 and up and everything on the market can already play shit older than that.

>>10839139
ngl But because most DS and 3DS games use the bottom screen for menus/buttons, having a larger screen just means more travel distance to tap things. I find the bottom screens on official XL models to even be too big.

>finally get microsd to set up r36s that came with no cards
>ark os download from both mirrors just doesn't want to happen

what do?

>>10837145
Bit of a dumb question, but: is it possible to play pokemmo on one of the wifi enabled emulator handhelds? If so, do any of the vertical ones work for those purposes? How is the experience?

>>10839187
I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't work. Know there's an android build, would be surprised if it wasn't on Linux too

>>10839192
What do you think would be the best device for it?

>>10837869
I like the DS but he's retarded for thinking it's any good at playing anything other than DS and GBA games (and maybe GB/GBC), the screen resolution is too small to fit NES games and SNES is almost entirely unplayable.

>>10839187
>>10839197
For anybody that has tried it, what would be the ideal device for this?

>>10839261
I just put a grip on my phone and play it that way. I don't suppose it really matters honestly. Just need a dpad and you know the usual buttons

>>10838360
>I feel like I just have to bite the bullet and install retro arch on my ps4
It's kinda of shitty honestly, limited cores and most of the good shaders just doesn't work

>>10839265
I really need to swap to Android.

>>10839070
oh so thats how you hack a DSi, people said r4 didnt work so I assumed it was just unhackable.

I wish they would just make one of these chink things that is a copy paste of the DS but just with bigger screens and 720p instead of 240p. Like a 5 or 6 inch screen for top and bottom.

>>10838839
I really wanted this to be good, but man they just fucked up the bottom screen

do powkiddy or game consol(i)e (r36s maker) have better build quality?

>>10839316
find how to drive two screens in android (like say, output the top screen with hdmi out and the bottom screen on the handheld in a retroid) and I'll do the rest

>>10839316
DS is 192p

>>10838979
you could afford a trip to japan but not get more handhelds?

>>10839350
BF paid for most of it and I used amex points for the rest :3. also a steam deck OLED is still 680 cad for a luxury and I'm not coping with an odin 2 or old LCD steamdeck.

>>10839036
I think that's just in ALBW, it's dim on both devices

>>10839036
i think its part of the game

>>10839192
Fairly certain Pokemmo is not on Portmaster, so Android.

>>10838243
Anbernig will save them. Ezpz

>>10839354
You're a faggot?

>>10839450
isn't everyone who collects handhelds?

>>10839456
No just the poketards and vertisloppers.

>>10839109
>>10839126
Yeah I'm already planning to 3D print this piece of plastic.

Neat

Add one button and this would be the perfect size and build quality for a little GB/GBC/NES/GameGear device. Far better than shit like the GKD Pixel or RG Nano.

>>10838839
I really hope that one day it will be possible for Ayaneo to release an Android version of this. x86 handhelds just do not have the battery life to bring something like this on the go.

garlicos update when?

>>10839532
Size comparison. Just give it a screen, second button, microSD card slot, and USB-C charge slot and it's perfection.

>>10839349
fucking nintendo man lol. wasnt the psp around 480p or something?

>>10839556
My dude, this thread already provides the resources you need to check yourself. The PSP has 128p.

>>10839349
>>10839556
The DS is 107p.

>>10839556
yeah and the DS outsold it by quite a bit, the vita even more so, software library and price (psp $250 vs DS $150) matter way more to success and it shows.

>>10838726
>4:3 display

>>10839575
That isn't what that means.

>>10839575
>>10839637

>>10839637
That is literally what that means. 480x640, 720x1280, and 1080x1920 being called "480p, 720p, and 1080p" was stupid and wrong. It's also why most people say "HD and Full HD" rather than "720p and 1080p" now.

>>10839653
>The fuckers didn't make it 1280x2000 so that FHD height would be the perfect size for HD's width, letting you stack or rotate multiple form-fitting monitors
I have a 1080p and 720p monitor side by side, and when going to the smaller one I have to do it at a certain height or my cursor gets stuck in the corner of the 1080p screen, it's so annoying

would you guys believe this isn't even the dumbest conversation i've seen today

>>10839661
They wanted to make it 1920 specifically in reference to women's suffrage

>>10839653
Being wrong wouldn't be so embarrassing if you didn't insist on doubling down.

>>10839653
The 'p' in 480p, 720p and 1080p signifies for progressive scan, you retard. As opposed to 'i' in 480i, 576i, 1080i to denote 'interlaced'.

I’m trying to remember the name of a console. It was called something like “dbk Dragon”, had a yellow shell and shape like this but more rectangular edges.
Anyone know?

Super Metroid GBA edition isn't very good. It's an interesting proof of concept, but the game is really empty because everywhere there wasn't a good zero mission equivalent mechanic the hacker just put nothing in its place. Super Zero Mission is way better.

Does anybody know of any grippy protective cases for the RG35xx+? The only one I could find is on Etsy, and I'm not paying $35 (plus tip) for one.

>>10840108
i still don't understand why none of these companies have done a six button handheld with sticks and two shoulders now that they're powerful enough to actually run N64 and Saturn comfortably. it's like they don't want my fucking money or something.

>>10840130
And he just keeps racking patreonbucks without any updates?

>>10840078
Changing the height doesn't solve the issue I'm describing, at fucking all.

>>10840219
The second stick are the c buttons, dingus.

>>10840240
no, idiot. 6 buttons AND a second stick, so you don't have to have two different devices for N64/Genesis/Saturn and everything else with 4 face buttons and a second stick

>>10840242
The... N64, Genesis, and Saturn did not have second sticks, anon...

>>10840263
are you actually fucking retarded or are you trolling

>>10840219
It doesn't make sense either since a control scheme like that would also be perfect for fighters, and the only other handheld I can think of that comes close is that one Anbernic one (that can't even run Saturn games well IIRC).

>>10840161
Imagine if the screen was larger, flexible and twice the height. It would wrap around the front when closed, but would open- stiffen up, and rotate 90° when operating.

So long as you only scrape what you need it shouldn't take too long. I prefer to do it on PC and leave it for an hour or two. If I had to wait for a handheld to do it I'd die before it scraped the last famicom game and went to gameboy.
>>10840425
>>3ds in good condition goes for rp4 pro prices
Neat. I had 4 of them at one point, a JP 3DS, JP N3DS XL, an NA 3DS XL and an EU N3DS XL. Got rid of the first gen JP 3DS a while back, with the eshop closed might be worth unloading that second N3DS XL finally.

>retro handheld market is highly competitive
>manufacturers constantly outdoing each other making progressively more powerful, functional, and user-friendly devices while maintaining competitive price points
>literally capitalism at its best
>from China
How did this world get so upside down?

>>10840498
Unironically?
Capitalism's best friend, corporatism, shareholders, bloat & IP.
"The big three" (I'm going to include MS here) don't release frequent devices and stick to 2-3 devices within a generation because it's deemed to create confusion within users and dilute the brand.
Then there's the concept of having R&D and QA (LOL) focus on just one or two devices they can keep things focused and reduce the risks of their platforms being cracked open and subsequently reduce costs. Fewer revisions means they can produce in bulk, set up lucrative contracts with partners to source parts and squeeze every penny out.
The switch, PSP and DS have all had issues with piracy but also with original and refresh devices hosting unique hardware issues and to shareholders that risk and a bad product showing through or damaging the brand isn't deemed to be worth it.

Anbernic and powkiddy etc can release a couple of handhelds a year if they want because they don't need to support a platform where you buy games or worry if sleep mode is broken or there's charging & battery issues.
The smaller size benefits them because they aren't subject to corporate bloat. If a bad model releases and the next one mogs the competition it will in time be forgotten. If something catastrophically bad were to tank their rep they can rebrand to patch it over.
The worst thing they could have happen is someone copies their devices but that's expected and the sales lifespan of them is so short that it doesn't matter if someone rips off their device so long as they fill different niches.

how come when I scrape on rg35xx it puts photos/videos into 2 folders
>images
>videos
and then defines what it is in the file eg xx__marquee or whatever

but when I scrape from pc (skraper) it puts them in different folders? how do I get the same structure or whatever the fuck. doing my head in

My battery & charging issues continue with the RGB30 on jelos. Anyone experienced similar or use arkos?
>First arrived at 0% but turned on
>charged to 100

So I've read that fixes it but I want to avoid the battery discharging again, is this an issue with jelos specifically.
It's charging past 87% for now and I'll pull it at 99 or so but these battery issues are killing an otherwise great experience.

>>10840425
I got mine pre-modded for non-Pro prices, so wherever you’re looking, it’s probably not in the right place

>>10840425
I don't know if this is still the case, but I got a Japanese New XL for 120 just a couple years ago, and since you're gonna be modding it you can just install english firmware. Though I don't know what the current JP market's like

>>10840571
Just ask some LLM to make a program for you that organizes them however you want.

>>10840498
Because the US hasn't been true capitalism for years now. Capitalism implies competition, and equal rules across the board. Meanwhile, the US has everything owned by like, ten companies who are basically immune to the law because a $10mil fine means nothing to a company that makes that much every minute.

Decent android phone + Bluetooth grips makes all these handhelds pointless and unimpressive...

Right but I Carry my phone everywhere so I don't have to carry phone + handheld...that's too much. I can put my phone in pocket and play turn based games that don't need fast inputs anywhere. And keep my grips in a bag or whatever.

>Aspect ratio
>Background processes
Irrelevant and a decent phone won't be slowed down by emus unless it's Switch or ps3 type shit

>Planned obsolescence
Buzzwords. You'll have a decent phone all the time unless you're homeless or something, buying some grips is no big deal and superior to carrying a child's handheld with you

And it plays other systems wonderfully
So, if you can get it for $15 or less, it's a must-buy

>>10840846
Gamesir g8 alnost. Kishi 2 would've been god tier if it didnt use switch sticks, had a better dpad and designed the usb connector differnetly.

Anyone have any favorite toilet games? The kinda game where you're like, "Gonna be a good few minutes, may as well entertain myself"?

>>10840858
Not just for the toilet but anytime. Still probably one of the best games on Game Boy

>>10840856
My phone replaced taking my handhelds into the bathroom with me a long time ago, but I would genuinely play Pokemon Blue on my golden Nintendo Power GameBoy Pocket sitting on the toilet far longer than I needed to.
I think I had Game & Watch Collection 3 for the GBC in the bathroom too, grinding to unlock everything.

>>10840846
Gamesir G8 was pretty good, I only got rid of it because I wanted to take a break from videogames for a while

The glowing LEDs you can't turn off and have to just tape over were my only complaint

>>10840798

Very happy with my Ipega Red Knight, I just wish the charge port was USB-C and not micro USB, means I need to carry a second cable just to charge it.

>>10840901
There's no phone it can't hold but god damn are those face buttons TINY.

>>10840901
That controller's old as shit and ipega only produces units with leftover parts. There's the nodsuup that looks like it was made by the m1 guys with type-c but it's still not known how to switch to xinput and the dpad looks like death.

>>10840340
in 5 years or so
there will be even more chinkhelbs to choose from

there will be even less compromises
esp as flagship ips high refresh rate panels become spare parts

>>10840919
Why would you recommend an inferior phone grip when he already has the superior one in that design?

>>10840938
I wasnt recommending it. I mentioned it because its the only new controller in that design and its only plus isn't really a plus becuase everyone has a microusb cord even if they dont want to.

>>10840207
Dang, I should print those and sell them, that dude didn't even print it well, look at the droop on the top of the case, that's just lazy

According to Videocardz there’s a rumor that RDNA3+ graphics will be used on their iGPUs for the next 3 years. It’s obviously just a rumor, but it probably means that any “next gen” performance uplifts like the gap from Ayaneo’s Vega-base handhelds to the ‘Eck’s RDNA2 graphics probably won’t be happening any time soon.

>>10841312
It has scanlines and LCD grid effect options, but its yes/no, no deep customisation, which is the whole point

>>10840432
thank you for pointing me towards the updater tool, this is super straightforward and the filters look great! i think maybe the way my SD card is set up is messing with my GB games (maybe the folder was set to read only?), but running them with the GBC core works like a dream

>>10841854
They can't because there's a lot of people that don't want Android, they want these linux custom firmwares. But they're constantly getting cockblocked by either the Chinese companies that make these devices or the devs' autism themselves.

>>10841879
Linux has no future on low end, they need to let go. There will never be another RG35XX or Miyoo Mini, this massive gathering of dev effort and breakthroughs, the closest we'll ever get is the janky dysfunctional shithouse that is the RK3566. Chinkhelds need to just work from factory.

My issue is that I'm probably buying a house soon and know I'll want to buy a decent tv, so I could spend the deck money on that and just get something cheap and comfy now

But I really want the deck too....

What's the most powerful vertical micro handheld? I need the ability to play GBA at 2x speed, at the very least. The Miyoo Mini v4 has been pretty comfortable for me so far, it's just the chip's way too slow.

>>10841791
MinUI works on my machine

>>10842062
RG405V

>>10842095
it is many things but it is not micro kek

>>10842101
You're shit out of luck then, next step would be H700 and RK3566, neither on Mini sized handhelds. Might as well wait for the flop and the clambernig.

>>10842095
By "micro", I meant "I can play the whole thing with one hand while driving"

>>10842062
>vertical micro handheld
gkd pixel? there aren't many options

>>10840995
Shit I didn't even notice that until you pointed it out. Yours looks super clean in comparison. I wouldn't want one with the handles or grips personally, because I like the tiny form factor, just something simple to protect against drops when I let my kids play with it.

>>10842115
What's with you fuckers that want to play while driving? people with this little attention span should not be allowed to drive

How can I tell which OS my RG35xx+ is running on?

Look at the traffic in front of you with both hands on the wheel, alert and aware to the road situation

If you don't like traffic move somewhere else and stop avatar fagging its just sad

>>10842201
>he can't drive with only one hand on the wheel
Skill issue. I drive with my Miyoo Mini in one hand, and a hotdog and soda in the other hand. If I need to turn, I take my Miyoo hand and grip the wheel with my pinky and ring fingers, all the while my thumb is still selecting my Pokemon's next attack.

Get on my level, DEXlet bitch

nta but my H's dpad kinda sucks (stiff & had to mod away the false diagonals) which i guess is common for anbernic

from what I heard they don't support usb c to usb c cables or anything usb-pd if that's what you're using
have you tried the shitty included one with a low wattage charger?

>>10842236
I had this exact problem. Your charger is too good. I was using a steam deck charger on mine and it would be 1% every 3-4 hours. Plugged an old shitty usb c into my fucking alarm clock and it charges from 0-full in like 3 hours.

Does this general discuss DYI repairs?

>>10842243
>have you tried the shitty included one with a low wattage charger?
I tried the included cable on my laptop but i don't have a low wattage charger, i might get one just to see if it works

>Plugged an old shitty usb c into my fucking alarm clock and it charges from 0-full in like 3 hours.
Lmao i don't have an alarm clock but i see if there's something similar around the house

Fucking SCORED
This isn't even everything I got

>>10842345
Nice. I want the tetris nuggie.

>chink manufacturers constantly outdoing each other making progressively more powerful, functional, and user-friendly devices while maintaining competitive price points
>$50usd devices don't charge if the usb cable is too good
lmao

>>10842383
You really don't have a spare USB-A to USB-C cable? They literally include one in the box.

>>10842272
we did back when old handhelds cost less than new ones. I assume you're repairing an original retro console? fortunately there are screen replacements for everything now, so dead screens are no longer unfixable. it will cost you as much as a new chink handheld though.

>>10842258
lmao that's the problem? sometimes it would work if I turned it on/off and unplugged it a few times.

>>10842272
Not really. Mostly people post updates on their mods/repairs if they feel like it but this isn't the place to be asking for advice or any shit. Like I posted this pic of a ValueVillage PSP-1000 I bought for like $10/15 with a cracked screen but just so happened to still have my original PSP's screen from twenty years ago. Also some dude modded his og GBA to have a Rayquaza theme.

>>10837679
Based

I'm always down to talk about retro handhelds and modding

>>10842383
and they won't turn a $50 device into a $51 device because at that point it would no longer be competitive or some shit

>>10842154
It's a step up in quality from the usual avatarfagging 2bh

You get to blame the USB standard fragmentation in this case.
Here's where you can point to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB#Power and its subpage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_hardware#Power
These devices have a simple implementation. There's multiple seethe articles and videos crying about this overall and not just in the chink handheld community. We're talking more than cables, we're talking wholesale chargers not being compatible. It's a problem on both ends.
I have a tablet that supports 18W and 22w~ charging modes but because it's a substandard (HSC) I can only use specific chargers if I want to suck more than 18W out. Even Apple are guilty of it.

Really chink devices are no different but you can fool them with a simple USB A to C adapter like, well anything. The standard is absolutely fucked. Nevermind what >>10842392 says buy yourself a pack of like 5 or 10 USB A (M) to USB C (F) adapters and live the dream.

>>10842392
>>10842490
No, shill-sama.
A defective $50 device isn't the consumer's fault, that's completely on the company side.

>>10837679
Saved for the next time this fucking faggot reposts his Anal log pocket pics for the Nth time, there hasn't been a meme this good since "Hello, cancelled."

>>10842539
DROP IT ON A CHILD, FUCK IT!

>>10842516
>defective
If it charges over dumb A to C it categorically isn't defective.
Blame the fragmentation of standards first.
Blame yourself for not learning about the fragmentation of standards, cables and owning the correct hardware.

I get where you're coming from, you can see it in my seethe and contempt for standards.
A USB device should accept any combination of voltage & current that's supplied to it like a regular battery. Fuck 9V/3A for 18W give me 2.869V/6.272A support. Fuck safety.

It depends entirely on the customer's expectations and the allowed scope of the product/project. If the scope of the project only allows for a defective product, and the customer still purchases the product, the customer is at fault for being a mindless consumer and not waiting for reliable reviews of the product before knee-jerk purchasing it in the fear of missing out on the next big popular fad.

>>10842559
This. You will always, always, ALWAYS get what you paid for. It's up to you to realize what you're actually buying.

The only way anything about this photo could be any more sad is if you don't live in your apartment alone. Like, there's somebody else suffering co-existing with you in this shit shed. Whether it be your mother, a roommate, or significant other... holy fucking fucking shit.

Thank you for being every degree a stereotypical Analog Pocket purchaser, you hilariously pathetic piece of affirming shit.

>heh.... everyone made fun of me for buying an analog pocket...
>little did they know just how pathetic of a life form I truly could be...
>today i will show them
And then anon showed us just how inbred pathetic his entire existence actually is.
He spends all day in his apartment twiddling guitars playing shitty music no one will ever hear and grinding Pokemon on his Analog Pocket. This is his life. This is what he's been so smug about here for the past year.

I didn't know this entire thread was antisocial rejects.
>>10842640
Your room is fine anon.

>>10842602
basically, it's your fault for expecting a quality product

I legitimately want this thread to be the thread where Analog Pocket anon realizes how hopelessly sad his life is and confesses to us he's going to kill himself, and then peace for many /hhg/ without him as he lurks feverishly waiting for anyone to feel sad or confess remorse but ultimately no one will because he'll be forgotten the second he fucking stops posting and reminding us of his obnoxiously pointless existence.

Does the analogue pocket also run off SD cards, or is it only hardware? Genuinely asking.

>>10842672
>This reminds me of fucking 2000s SomethingAwful Goons putting black garbage bags up over their windows to block out the sunlight, holy fucking shit.
NTA but I have my whole house except my bathroom light sealed with suitable draught covers on the doors. Trash bags are shit tier for covering as are sheets. Tin foil and reflective foil are good for a first point covering, followed by something solid like light wood shutters/ custom foam cutouts (again with foil).

That said, I'm almost completely nocturnal and it was done with a secondary purpose. At the time I was using my kitchen as a darkroom but wanted to open up to using larger areas for printing and required more room for throw distance and prints. Winter wasn't so bad but summer time printing was an issue, having most of the house allowed heat to circulate better too which was a nice bonus.
It required more than this lazy effort since I also had to tape over LEDs and have good workplace practices to ensure there was no light bleed.
There is absolutely no way, ever to cover your windows like this and not look like a schizo or a drug dealer to the layman.

>>10842704
Anon I get that he's a fucking poketard faggot but you seriously need to take your meds or something.

The cope. You were literally throwing a tantrum last thread for avatar fagging you pathetic piece of shit. And to think back in September through March I was actually defending you as being one of the only okay Analog Pocket owners, turns out you're a Reddit consoomer fagalord who can't go five minutes without discussing the shit you consoom because you need outside justification for your mindless, retarded consumption.
Literally look at yourself. This is the bedroom of a 17 year old living with his single mother. You are grossly incapable of financing properly as an adult and spend all of your money on consooming shit you do nothing productive with. Fuck you for convincing me you weren't a total fucking loser faggot.

Sorry bro, you're just pathetically daydreaming and roleplaying now.

why are small boards such shitholes? even /v/ isn't like this, same as /n/ it's full of prolific schizos who won't shut the fuck up about their bug bear. get a life, both the anal log avatar fag, the seething pokemon hater and everyone who is obsessed about analogue pocket.

Now that i know that $50-60 chinkhelds are prone to fail in one way or another. What is the minimum i should spend for a RELIABLE device that is not going to die in a year or less.

>>10842720
This is your life.
Taking photos of your collection and insisting you're not a retard for buying an Analog Pocket.
Meanwhile you work a graveyard shift "yet also print vinyl as an independent recording label" while living in a corner bedroom apartment cramped with the shit you consume and do nothing with.

Seriously, keep outing yourself further, this is great.

It's not the handheld, it's the microSD cards. Learn to fucking ditch the stock cards these handhelds come with and buy a proper branded one. The R36S for $50 is stupid reliable despite its shitty shoulder buttons as long you, as is the norm with ALL OF THESE DEVICES, replace the stock SDcard that comes with it.

you heard it bros, the 2DS is retro
