Should I get one of those gameboy color refurbished handhelds off Etsy with the IPS screens?

They seem kinda pricy but I don't know how valuable those screens are.

Does winlator work well on odin 2? Is it the best option for visual novels? I want to play visual novels on it like witch of the holy night and I'd imagine VNs are easy to run since they're just still images, right?

I think I'm gonna do it

MOAR

>>10854497
it's funny how faggots complain every thread

>>10854584
I have a yellow Famiclone too.
I also bought an SF2000
Now I am puzzled at why would anyone buy more than one Famiclone.... they are really shit

>>10854591
It's for the people who want the autistic $20k wall of handhelds they'll never use, but only have a budget of $300 to do it

>>10854589
That image isn't even on-topic, numbnuts.

>>10854598
Yeah, the fuck is he thinking? It's not a retro handheld at all, we shouldn't talk about that here! We're only here for older, lower power consoles, like the Steam Deck, Odin 2, and Retroid Pocket 4S!

>>10854591
You might like the GB300. It's the same style as a Famiclone but has the guts of the SF2000. Plus you get TG-16 out of the box

>>10854595
Basically yeah. I like the form factor but those Anbernics can get kind of pricey

>>10854571
I wonder what will happen first, stable garlicos 2.0 or any of those.

Is there any way to track when handhelds are on sale or when the websites that sell them are offering good coupons? I hate how often I go on aliexpress and the tiktok store just to check

>>10854562
>but I don't know how valuable those screens are.
Why not just get the ITA screens that look better instead? You're going for a modded system anyway.

this thread is so silly

should I get an sf2000 for someone that just wants to play nes and snes?

What's the matter with steve?

>>10854603
It doesn't even fucking exist yet. Threads with those pics at least show retro games running on them, instead of some faggy fanmade mock-up with a non-existent game on display.

>>10854671
there seems to be a sale every month on aliexpress, you haven't been checking for long
in fact, there's one right now

>>10854860
What's not the matter with Steve!?
Nah. I appreciate he's passionate and he seems to have done good things in other fields but when it comes to the TSP he's better off left ignored unless you're looking to pick apart his modifications for cores.

Overall he increases visibility of the TSP as a capable device so I can't hate on him too much.

I was going to wait until I got the miyoo mini flip to replay the saga but fuck it, those fuckers keep delaying it

A duel screen handheld that can also emulate PS Vita and switch needs to happen. It would be a handheld that can emulate all handhelds

is there any single site/gallery/etc out there where i can look at concept art for 4th/5th gen handhelds?

>>10855367

The Retroid 4 Pro is almost perfect. I'll wait for the 5 with OLED

is stock firmware in the 2s good enough?
do people usually install something else for better game performance?

>>10855257
The fuck are those filters? GBA did NOT look like that.

>>10855718
He should give us something for scale on that picture, because PS2 and Dreamcast handhelds like that are closer in size to Steam Deck than to Vita. Also pretty poorly made most of the time. One reviewer I watched said that his particular unit was well made because there was no got glue inside haha. Yeah, because we should except hot glue in a $400 product. I'll just stick with my Retroid Pocket 2S.

What's the cheapest Saturn/Dreamcast machine? I was going to buy a nice looking PSP but then realized one of those things like the retroid can probably play that in widescreen as well as the SS/DC library.

>>10855921
Lol don't expose yourself too quickly. The low, low pixel count on the GBC/GBA absolutely made it so that the pixels themselves were chunky and easily viewable. Back then, we held consoles like the GBC/OG GBA right next to our faces thanks to the low visibility of the screens, so the pixels were even more noticable. I'd say this >>10855257 is pretty accurate all things considered - given the screen is being blown up so large.

>>10855919
It's just Android. It doesn't matter what flavor it is (unless the build is severely broken, which isn't the case here), all emulators work the same.

>>10855919
There is only the stock firmware. It's great, possibly the best for the chinkheld market given Ayn can't shake those extra frames of lag over everyone else.

And it's not "just Android", it has neat little features like virtual mouse and most importantly is completely functional. Contrary to popular belief, it's VERY easy to fuck up Android, see Anbernic's and Powkiddy's releases.

>>10855980
There is no cheap Saturn machine. $100 for Dreamcast on RP2S.

I emulated Super Mario 64DS on my phone, using the touchscreen as an analogue stick, and it worked quite well.

>>10854580
It's the best Famiclone.

>>10856224
AI Unicorn was such a fucking embarrassment that GDK is reconsidering their relationship with ZPG entirely. And ZPG doesn't make it any better with their fucking retarded latest offerings either.

Reminder that these sticks are perfectly fine and to stop complaining.

>>10856242
The bubble looks so fucking sexy, shame about the chip and screen.

>>10856246
And the d-pad. It's the same disc on a stick on a disc that the A1 Unicorn uses, which is one of the main things that raped the entire thing into being such an industry-wide joke.

3DS has a great library, we can't talk about it here because le retro board but it's good, and you get the DS library too, and GBA with a bit of a blurry upscale.

>>10856542
>3DS has a great library
does it?
legit asking
just bought one for emulating retro games

>>10856569
for 3DS titles the library is mid
for ds support (assuming you have a model that looks good playing ds)
it becomes STACKED
>nes, snes, sega genesis, gb, gbc, gba, etc
plus the 3D classics\remasters with added content

the 3ds is the most hardcore nintendo system of all time
it took what the wii had going for it and made it portable
>>10856540
t. seethes every thread the second a pocket is mentioned

>>10856569
like 4 ace attorney games, a few good monster hunters (especially on n3ds), super mario 3D land, rhythm heaven megamix, OOT remake, warioware gold, SMT 4, few good FE games, steamworld heist, kirby triple deluxe, DKC returns, samus returns, kid icarus uprising, zelda ALBW. not to mention the entire DS library

wish I didn't buy this rg35xx h. its not really that comfy. batocera takes forever to load. the added performance (compared to my only other device - v90) is cool but meh who wants to play ps1 on 3.5 inch screen.

>>10856224
He's using promo shots from fucking five months ago and the final product looks no where near the quality the promo renders were, "olivers" is a paid shill.

>>10856224
>four literally whos all saying "The AI Unicorn is a gamer changer... literally!"
wow
so organic
much natural
no astro-turfing

>>10856662
I'm not trying to be a dick, but I really have no idea why anyone bought the 35xx H when the RK2023 (super comfy, better controls/screen/audio, 98% as pocketable and can be found for cheaper) and Trimui Smart Pro (looks comfy, nice big screen that gives 4" of 4:3 space, probably better controls, similar price to rk2023) exist. Similar stories for the RP2S, RG ARC, RGB30, and RGB10 Max 3, THO admittedly those all cost a bit more.

>>10856704
Only the first three said that, the fourth just expressed interest.
I left the GKD discord but the ZPG subchannel probably had some promotion or asked people to promote it this morning to boost interest/sales. Pathetic.

Fuck, now I want Apollo Crocodile Mario. Shit is lit. I'm drooling at these 3 lights. Or at least I need this Puyo-puyo/columns/tetris rules Brick Game... Or Sonic Adventure LCD game. Fuck.

>>10856717
it's way more expensive for me. and the rg35xxh looks better. but yeah it probably its comfier but it is a powshitty device. I was looking for advice on a rk2023 not long ago and no one seemed to have one here.

>>10855718
>no sticks

>>10855921
It's one of the LCD shaders that breaks if not integer scaled, very grim.

So what is its purpose besides just a personal project? And even then...
This might have been cool like fifteen years ago.

what's the best way to play gameboy games?
SP with backlight or modded gba?

>>10856792
SP if you like the form factor. GBA otherwise, but honestly GBA is very easily emulated, scales well on larger screens etc.

>>10854431

>>10856792
Depends on what form factor you want, but any official hardware that plays GBA carts will do. Most recommended being GBA SP, original GBA with screen mod, and the phat og Nintendo DS. GBAmicro IF you can afford it and play with that fucking screen and teensy form factor. You can use real GBA carts or a flash cart.
Otherwise, a Miyoo Mini Plus or RG35XX-family model for emulating.

>>10856662
>buttocera
there's at least half your problem

Fuck no it isn't, Kotaku. Fuck you.

Finally bothered to get one of these things. Ordered a Miyoo Mini Plus today for 47 Euro. Says Estimated delivery date: May 8. Never used Ali Express before so dunno if that is actually reliable.

>>10856943
it's not, it can be a week before that or 2 weeks after that at the worst.

>>10856945
Ah ok. Well i'm not in any big rush to get it so its ok. I just got the email now saying its shipped. I ordered it about 8 hours ago.

Is this the best setup guide? https://youtu.be/dCODWqdehWE

>>10856968
Well yes but you just need to install onionOS into your micro sd card and then just download this

>>10856806
>>10856879
thanks
I already have an sp with the backlight but was kinda considering getting a modded advance just because they seem comfy
not sure if it's worth it though over just another horizontal chinese handheld

>RG 35XX Plus recommended
>not the RG35XX H
why

>>10857329
Better Dpad.

>>10857332
Not him, but what's wrong with it?
Shittier plastic/build quality? Or the actual responsiveness/accuracy of its input

>>10857329
>>10857339
Both the shape of the standard modern Anbernic d-pad is shit the circuit board's design leaves it to give false diagonals unless you open the unit up and place electrical tape across the switches. Swapping the d-pad out for an Etsy one is more popular than swapping the face buttons for whatever colour people want to match their handheld.
They finally made a great d-pad with the RG35XX Plus but being the assholes that they are, did not include it with the new RG35XX or the RG35XX-H.

>>10857360
Ah shit, so it's with the board itself as well. Wasn't aware of this, thanks.

>>10857360

Would getting a 2DS to use as handheld retrogame device?

>>10857208

>>10857221
No, it is some schizo who forgot to take his meds.

>>10857481
You'll be able to comfortably play 3DS, DS, NES, GB, and GBA on it (though for GBA you'll be using VC injection). If you're spending $70 on a retro emulation handheld you'd be better off with an RG35XX off amazon. Here's a good listing, even comes with a case:

https://www.amazon.com/RG35XX-Handheld-GarlicOS-Portable-Transparent/dp/B0CB1673MV

It'll play pretty much every 2D console flawlessley, and most PS1 games too. Just remember that the stock SD cards are always shit, so you should get your own card and flash a new OS on it (garlicOS is recommended)

>>10857508
>though for GBA you'll be using VC injection
Which is bad?
I thought it was better since it give more accurate emulation.
>RG35XX
How's the screen on those?

>>10857516
What retro systems do you want to play? My recommendation is the trimui smart pro, around the same price with better ergonomics and more power.

>>10857481
You may settle for a mediocre product, yes. It fits you better after all.

>>10857552
Are the triggers as bad as people say?

>>10857516
>Which is bad?
>I thought it was better since it give more accurate emulation.
Not even emulation, 3DS plays GBA natively. Only reason it sucks is because you have to go into a program to make an installable VC game for every GBA rom

>>10857552
GBA mostly JRPG.
But since I'm there I thought DS as well, though some don't thonk of those as "Retro"

>>10857573
They were improved 4 months ago.
>>10857589
Then I think the smart pro is for you.

>>10857552
>>10857624
how well can it run n64 and dreamcast
psp too

>>10857639
Hit or miss. It can run MHFU perfectly however, and they are still improving vulkan, plus batocera is on its way.

>>10857639
Well, I use PSP to get both PSP and PS1

>>10857573
>Are the triggers as bad as people say?
The other anon says they were improved and I got mine around 2~ months ago and they're fine desu. Perfectly serviceable.

>>10857639
I don't play the first 2 kusoge systems but PSP is alright, on par with and better than Vita.
Vulkan is a bit broken here or there but can improve and is overall more efficient.
Some games you'll be able to play 1:1 in 720p, some in 1x or 2x like you would on the vita.
Going through Tactics Ogre at the moment and blasted through Disgaea 2's main story already.

>>10857707

>Clickbait video game blog has a clickbait title
It's 2014 again and I'm so le shocked.

>>10855718
I don't know why people in this thread are ragging on this. Like yeah, it's objectively not as handy as most emulation handhelds, but getting the original that compact and neatly put together's cool as hell, and I never wanna become so bitter and jaded that I can't admit it's pretty sweet

>>10857761
It's just one person greentexting "no sticks" and another person saying it would have been cool fifteen years ago. You just might already be the bitter individual you fret becoming if comments like that are enough to bring you to your knees like this, bro.

>>10856863

This theme is excellent, but I heard Pegasus is an absolute pain in the ass to setup.
Are there any alternative frontends that look roughly like this while being easier to manage?
I'm specifically talking about having my screen fully dedicated to a single rom (with its own wallpaper and maybe logo or cover) rather than appearing in a list or gallery.
The only one that comes close is ES-DE but I don't like most of the themes and it's arguably even more annoying to setup.

If there's no way, can I manually manage Pegasus from my device?
I don't have a million roms so I'd be ok with manually adding them to the frontend, select the emulator for each one of them, add pictures from my gallery and so on.
But I'd rather avoid using dedicated sites/software to compile dozens of metadata files on my PC, then install other third party software to scrape shit from a site that requires an account and hope everything works out in the end.

>>10856534
>T. First rpg was kinomon.
>>10857585
He doesnt even need to inject for gba. Just use open agb firm or whatever it was called.

>>10857481
I wouldn't listen to the nay-sayers, the 2ds is very nice, and unlike the recommendations they gave you, it (obviously) will play all 3ds games and ds games without any glitches (and with the two screens oriented the way they should be to enjoy the developers original intent)

A 2ds and a PS vita will get you access to pretty much every handheld game pre switch (and all them will be running on real hardware) as well as every console game pre-ps1-inclusive.

If I didn't already buy a RGB30, my 3DS and PS Vita would be all I need.

https://youtu.be/I-323uYZxR8?si=VZL6cTLAAuXogB6U

>>10858096
>the 2ds is very nice
sure if you just ignore the dogshit controls, screens, emulation, and speaker. yes, speaker, not speakers. they couldn't even be assed to center the one and only shit speaker, either. I'll at least give it credit for being an ergonomic step up from the 3dass.

>>10858113
See what I mean? Why would you listen to this fag that unironically thinks playing DS games on a device without a touch screen is anywhere close to playing on real hardware?

>>10858113
>says speaker but not screen
The 2DS literally only has one big touch screen, they just put a plastic divider and protector over the top one so you can't touch it. I'm serious.

>>10858118
>look it up
>IT'S TRUE

>>10858113
>>10858118
It doesn't matter what the screens were like, the resolution is too low to make a difference. The games are fun and it's fun playing them on a 2ds

>>10858125
And it's even more fun playing them on literally any other device than a 2DS. Besides maybe this piece of shit.

>>10858129
No one believes it's more fun to play DS games on a device without a touch screen.

>>10858118
>>10858121
Amazing

>>10858153
That has a touch screen.

>>10857836

>>10858121
The hotdog even has an overlay to match, cute.

>>10858153
Most real games on the DS don't use the touchscreen.

>>10858096
Would you suggest I expend more and the get the more expensive 3dsXL?
Also would R4 card be needed or I gan do most stuff through SD card?
>>10858113
There's audio jack right?
>>10858115
No homo
>>10858118
And?

>>10858289
Running DS games from the SD card on 2ds is very good now, you'll probably be fine without a R4

Personally, I don't like the 3D, but a 2dsxl wouldn't be a bad choice

>>10858885

>>10858893
Not with that retarded illuminated logo on the back you're not, what a fucktard of a design choice.

>>10858879
Miyoo wants to do the a30 asap and no matter what. The flip isnt that important to them. Plus it's rockchip so they need to port features from their os first.
>>10858939
It's not like you're gonna see it, but powkiddy did theirs better.

>>10859027
I hate a lot about the V90's actual design. The GBA SP is already as cramped as one can get before it becomes pointless to even play, and the V90 just crams all buttons even closer together and has that stupid wide double speaker hole grill where the actual holes are under exactly where your palms will rest. The one thing they did right was just copying the SP's hinge instead of trying to make some unique design for it.

>>10859046
I was acutally talking about the x18. Powkiddy didn't make the v90, a noname company did. Which is funny when you think about it

Are any of the chink handhelds any good in quality? I can't imagine them being any good long term like proper Nintendo ones.

Asking because I'm pondering whether to get one of those for general emulation, or just getting a really good bluetooth controller for my PC/phone.

>>10859175
Try a phone with controller first. If you like that, you might like the android chinkhelds as they don't have emmc failure these days anymore.
>Proper nintendo one's
Believe it or not, powkiddy acutally does better hinges.

>>10859175
At least in the short term I've had better luck with chinkhelds than nintendo's stuff.

>>10858367
I'd pay twice that for a Steam bi-fold clamshell.

>>10858391
>>10858493
WTF how?

>>10859401
NOW THAT IS TEXTURE WARPING!

>>10859242
>>10859245

I haven't had a handheld since the DSi. Did they drop the ball in quality with the 3DS and switch?

>>10859406
fixed point calculations... SOVL

>>10859401
In drastic video settings, external display mode = correct aspect ratio. I'm also using USB c, don't know if that plays into it

>>10859409
Not really, but the x18 uses a laptop style hinge which is always better. Switch joycons using buttons instead of a dpad must be ass, though.

>>10859416
Someone check if this shit works over HDMI, probably not.

>>10859416
>>10859427
Yeah, if this shit works with HDMI then I'm buying one.

>>10859409
Nah the 3DS build quality was alright on the XL and the New 3DS & XL.
First gen 3ds was a bit similar to the DS lite or the first DS where it served more as a proof of concept for something better.
The DSi & XL are kinda just in a class of their own with the smol N3DS build wise, if you exclude the screen issues.

>>10859427
>>10859437
Same person who posted the animal crossing pic here, and sadly it doesn't seem to work

>>10859446
Shame. Oh well, USB C to HDMI cables must be cheap, right? Wonder if 2S can do this too.

>>10859450
I got my adapter for under $10 on amazon, it's a lot cheaper to just get a little dongle adapter like pic related and use a normal HDMI for the rest of the length

>>10859446

>>10859450
>Wonder if 2S can do this too
I assume any device with usb c video out capabilities can do it. I THINK the 2S is capable of that but not sure. Can anyone here confirm?

Why am I getting a "FBNeo Error Romset is Unknown" when trying to play Capcom System 1 Games on my RGB30 JelOS? I've tried putting the zip file roms in every folder that might have worked, Arcade, MAME, cps1, cps2, cps3. Nothing works.

>>10859467
Tried with my Deck's dock, unless I missed a step to enable USB-C video it doesn't seem to work. Can anyone else chime in?

>>10859527
You need specific romsets for each version of FBNeo or Mame.

>>10859527
Oh yeah, and if I recall correctly CPS and Arcade folders default to FBNeo, so boot it and check the version of the RA core, then look up its romset. You can also just pick whatever emulator you want for the folder, but it seems FBNeo is the most performant. I think last time I had arcades running before either ArkOS or JELOS saw fit to format my SD2 for no fucking reason, I was on FBNEO 1.0.0.3 Best Set.

>>10858129
>That abomination
I think I'm gonna be sick

>>10859535
>Can anyone else chime in?
I don't have a 2S to test with, but considering the stock Retroid 4 doesn't have USB C video out, I'd be surprised if the 2S did

>>10859657
Hotdogs make you sick?

10 days ago I purchased an Odin 2.
They immediately sent me an email that says
>"We're getting your order ready to be shipped. We will notify you when it has been sent."
I'm still waiting.
This thing already takes 1 month (or worse) to ship, and they didn't even start the process. Fucking hell

>>10859932
what drove you to purchase one?
they seem great but pretty niche

https://youtube.com/shorts/lpc78QOPB7Q?feature=share

>>10859956
Mostly the size really.
I wanted a handheld retro-emulation machine to play at home, like on the couch or bed, but I'm used to big smartphone screens at this point. So a Retroid (which has the iPhone 6 display if I'm not mistaken) is a bit too small for my tastes.
On the other hand, the Steam Deck is fucking huge and heavy which kinda defeats the purpose, and 800p seems ridiculous for a 7 inch screen. I was still tempted to get the OLED model at some point but at the end of the day it's a laptop with buttons and I'm 100% sure I'd spend more time installing, modding and tweaking shit rather than playing (because that's what I already do on my desktop). My PC is pretty good so the Deck would be very underpowered in comparison, but its specs are still so good it would almost feel wasted on 20 years old games alone.

The Odin 2 sits right in that sweet spot because of its decently sized screen; it's a little bigger than a Switch Lite and a little smaller than a regular Switch, and it weights roughly as much. I can grab it and put it down everywhere at any given moment, while the Deck wouldn't be as handy.
Plus the hardware is so good it lets you play everything up to 6th gen (often with 2x/4x upscale on a 1080p display) without the constant need of tinkering with the settings, but the Android OS is limiting it to emulation which basically makes my tweaking/modding instincts a non-issue.
In the end it almost flawlessly runs everything you can possibly emulate on android, and newer emulators aren't even on the horizon, so it feels like a future proof retro handheld if that makes sense.
The battery also lasts for like 20+ hours which is honestly impressive.

not to make you feel bad but i expected exactly what you're going through when i placed an order with retroid a couple weeks ago and my shit was delivered in four days; dhl obviously but nevertheless was shocked kek

nice pickup tho anon hope you enjoy it

>>10858208
I'm so sick of you retards saying things are bad without also saying what is good. What is good then?

Oh okay, so you're a depressed faggot?

Only good game on it is Poke Tetris but for $9.88 I think I'm gonna get it, mostly want it for the color anyway

>>10860620
This shit runs GBA doesn't it?

>>10860673
They are just Famiclones anon, you are probably thinking of RG35XX or Miyoo Mini

They didn't have it in the store anyway so I'll probably just order online

Did you know you can play fallout with portmaster? I wonder how playable is it on a handheld.

>>10860024
if this was a fully functional phone and the sticks were removable I'd consider it. when are we getting a sequel to the GOAT?

also, anyone who's been to japan know if I'll be able to find a n3ds OG/LL for under $200? I'll be going to nakano broadway, hard off/book offs, and whatever else I can find in tokyo and mishima

>>10860764
Oh, I thought this >>10860620 was a rebranded >>10856239, so I was like
>wtf, that cheap?
but then I noticed the start/select buttons

>>10860913
RetroMax does not run GBA either, initially it was supposed to be like a bigger RetroMini but got repurposed into a Famiclone. We did however get the RG99 though which is essentially what the RetroMax should've/would've been

>>10860945
>the TF slot is just a dummy card used to pin the board
HAHAHAHAHA

That's what made me so confused, yes RG99 is the one, fuck

>>10860548
Don't call people retarded when you're too fucking stupid to follow a conversation. You sniping a single reply in a conversation and claiming I didn't say what was good (everything but the hotdog handheld. Seriously, unless you're playing Candy Crush tier touch screen only titles, playing DS games on any emulation handheld that has solid DS emulation touch screen or not is a better experience than the standard door stop/cheese wedge 2DS).

>>Nothing is good
>Oh okay, so you're a depressed faggot?
What level of projection are you even on inserting these words into my mouth like this and then losing to the very strawman you yourself created for yourself to to be able to defeat, and then even failing that? Holy fuck you are unhinged.

>>10860620
I have one of these, I won it from one of those claw game apps where you remotely control a claw machine in Japan and they ship you the prize if you actually win it. Fun times. This is a clone of the RetroMax. They have basically the same game libraries. The claw game app was fun to be honest but too addictive. You can save videos of your plays and people in the app can wait in a queue watching you live to snipe prizes that the whales spend hundreds of dollars on edging to the win before giving up and an expert coming in and getting it with a free daily play.

>>10860913
It sort of is to be honest. Not rebranded, just another company copying it and mass-selling to Walmart and Amazon.

>>10860963
I will say that the RetroMax's shoulder buttons, which are basically just Turbo 2 for A and B, make it comfier to grip. At least they didn't do the thing where they have an actual GameBoy cartridge slot but it only works with the proprietary cartridge that has all the ROMs on it like some older famiclone GameBoy handhelds did.
A shame because it's my one flaw with the RetroMini; The L and R buttons suck more than the Miyoo Mini's. And the RetroMini is both a famiclone with hundreds of preinstalled 8-bit games AND a GBA emulator with some preloaded GB, GBC, and GBA titles allowing you to add your own. Love the RetroMini.

>>10861158
>At least they didn't do the thing where they have an actual GameBoy cartridge slot but it only works with the proprietary cartridge that has all the ROMs on it like some older famiclone GameBoy handhelds did.
Specific examples being the "GB Station" and the "G100", both of which copy the GBA SP design but then use a proprietary cartridge to actually play the games, otherwise it's useless.
No, you cannot play any GB/GBA cartridge with these things, not even flash carts. The proprietary cartridge and the cartridge slot have unique designs that just look similar to GB/GBA carts.

>>10861146
>DROP IT !

>>10861158
Max zhou used the leftover stockpile of gba micro screens from the k101 and mp3 players for the retromini, but it orginally sold like ass. When americans ported dingux firmware to it, it became popular in and ouside of china. This snd the rs97 with retrofw is what inspired him to get into opensource and the rg300 and 350 were born. Miyoo and the gamekiddy faggot also thought it was a money making idea to try to do the gwc zero, but better and cheaper so the pocket go 2 and the gkd-whatshisface submerged.
>>10861176
I think theres a version if that thing that's an acutal hardware clone. It's ass.

>Physical turbo buttons on your device when the emulators have built-in cheat codes and capabilities

Actually pretty sweet considering they're normally $45-55. What games you plan to play on yours?
desu my main focus was Sonic Adventure 2, and omitting shading issues, it runs just how I would want SA2 to run as a handheld title. Worth every penny. (pick unrelated, it's the R35S I dealt with until my R36S arrived)

The COPE

Ever since I got my Odin 2 I have felt no need to look at any other handheld. It's literally the end game. But now I have nothing left to consoom and fill the void of depression.

>>10861683
>But now I have nothing left to consoom and fill the void of depression.
Are you a woman by any chance?

>>10861682
It's just the Japanese version.

I'm running out of fun stuff to do in Digimon World and other games don't really sound fun right now either.

>>10861713
Digimon World 2
or if you hate yourself and want a GBC RPG experience with a Nintendo DS game, Monster Rancher DS.

>>10861713
Play the Digimon WonderSwan games

>>10861146
>What level of projection are you even on inserting these words into my mouth
Then name a good handheld.

>>10861713
Digimon World 2 on Beetle or Duck/Swanstation, with seek rate and the other disk reading setting cranked to max to remedy load times during fights. Apparently there are decent hacks for this game out there.

>>10861659

a phone?

Any emulators on 3DS that support 3D?

Besides virtual boy

>>10862263
Which other 3D consoles you want to emulate?

>>10860548
i tell them what is good every single thread

>>10862321
There's only like 20 of those and they're all 2D games with some minor 3D. You should be able to play ps1 with 3D if someone has the skill

>>10861474
I think for now it's just a prototype.

playnite is excellent on desktop (it's the launcher I use) but unfortunately it's not available on android

I got a RG35XX months ago and I learned two things:
I don't need anything more powerful than this
This is not comfortable for me to use
What horizontal should I get?

>>10862474
I was in the same boat and just got an RG35XX H, I'm happy with it.

>>10862474
Get the H variant and maybe a grip like
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6569359
I find that if I play anything that wants the analogs on the thing I get cramps but otherwise it's great.

>>10862483
That was my first thought but someone here mentioned that model suffers from accidental diagonals just like the RG35XX.

>>10854389
that looks awesome!!!

>>10862474
Either get a grip or the trimui smart pro

>>10862486
Yeah the dpads the same. The only other device I was considering was Trimui Smart Pro, but decided against it because the software still sucks, it's too large for what I want and there was a guy complaining on youtube about the internal storage dying on him.

>>10862513
>>10862517
I discarded the trimui because that aspect ratio is retarded for what I want to play.
I guess I'll have to step up to the retroid pocket 2s.

After months I finally beat F-Zero on Master difficulty on the MM+. God, this and Super Mario Kart really fucked with me, what was Nintendo thinking?

>>10863942
Super Mario Kart is objectively the worst Mario Kart, one of the worst racing games even. Super Circuit is better in every way.

>>10863995
that would double dash

>>10862263
VB emu just came out. there are some fan hacks of games on OG DS that support 3D but it's rare.

>>10861713
Play dragon quest 5. Any version is good.

So what side are you on, /hhg/?
"It turns on, which means it runs fine enough!" or "It isn't 100% perfect so it's total fucking trash!"? It's really been interesting seeing the average nu-/v/ opinion of retro emulation now that iPhones allow them to do it and they're experiencing it for their first time.

>>10864352
Of course the first fucking thing they're all posting are Pokemon title screens.

>>10864352
average normie doesnt care and it's still great that emulation is more mainstream. the 3DS also makes DS games look like that

>>10864352
>>10864373
Chances are it doesn't even have a DS emulator and is just using a shitty 3DS one.

>>10864373
This, you really think the average Apple user even knows what pixel perfect or integer scaling means? It's an easy way for them to emulate and that's all they care about. Good for them if it gets them to play some good retro games.

>>10864383
though noone should be subjecting themselves to vanilla pokemon in 2024 when romhacks exist.

>>10864386
Best 'mon romhacks?

>>10864373
>it's still great that emulation is more mainstream
doubt

normies do nothing but attract large corporations that take over and kill hobbies for profit

>>10864397
Shin Pokemon Red is great, rather conservative and tasteful in its improvements unlike the average hack, but it does also patch up sequence breaking so that can be a deal breaker.

>>10864397
I think radical red is considered one of the best for difficulty and firered rocket edition. I like drayano hacks but some autist here hates them, not sure if he's around. unbound is one of the best full conversion hacks and people live clover though I havent played it.

>>10864403
>normies do nothing but attract large corporations that take over and kill hobbies for profit
sadly true

>>10864403
This. Either emulation will become heavily restricted like the way Nintendo wants to handle it in order to nickel and dime normies as much as possible with subscriptions, ads, and slow releases... or piracy will become too popular and companies will try to shut it all down again. Emulation is at its best when the average fucker isn't aware it even exists.

>>10854431
>I ruv China!!
literally me

>>10856774
>no sticks
yeah, add additional bulky hardware to a portable mod for the ONE game in the whole library that requires them

>>10861474
reusing old phone screens would be the ideal way to get cheap vert chinkhelds

Thinking of selling my Analogue Pocket and picking up an RG 556.
OLED screen seems pretty good and I'd like to be able to play PSX on a handheld which due to being FPGA, the Pocket obviously can't do. My usual setup for handheld gaming is Nintendo's current handheld plus a chink device for emulating all the shit that will never come to Nintendo, hence the selling and buying something else - I don't like having a thousand devices sitting idle that I don't use.

Are there any drawbacks to the RG 556? I don't plan to be emulating Gamecube/PS2 outside of maybe GCN Animal Crossing if it runs well.

>>10864764
shitty sticks

>>10864764
Honestly if you're not gonna be playing Gamecube or PS2 I say just get a retroid 2S. Has those nice hall sticks and retroid dpads are real nice. OLED is nice but a bit of a meme for retro emulation since you only really get your moneys worth when viewing high quality, low compression images, as opposed to 256 color palette 240p games

anyone else kinda feel bad playing anything past nes and msx games on handhelds?
I kinda feel like stuff like snes and ps1 games are better enjoyed on a bigger screen
oddly enough I don't feel that way about n64 and gc games though

>>10864913
>a bigger screen
>meant to be seen on 13 inch shit TV 10 feet away
no, not really

would it be possible to swap out a piece of the original gameboy's screen to get, say, a blue or a red background instead? or is the green colour inherent to the screen technology it uses?
(i don't plan to do it, i just got curious and can't find an answer.)

>>10864958
most aftermarket gb screens aren't even the same resolution as the original

>>10864913
psx is the limit, anything above deamcast deserves a larger screen

>>10864913
Nah, not really. People been playing snes and ps1 officially on small handhelds for 20 years now (as well as several ps2 games that got ported to psp), so it doesnt feel like a stretch

>>10864958
Technically it could be possible but it may look even worse than the original screen already does. A reason for the piss green backgrounds were because the material acted as a good reflector so you could make out the various shades of pixels.

I suppose in theory you could make a different reflective material with a different color but at that point you're fabricating a whole bunch of shit now.

>>10864913
I never played those systems on the tv, so I feel indifferent. If you can play psp games on a handheld then you can play games with more limited visuals on a handheld too.

>Guy is scared of playing a GameBoy or PSP

>>10865106
The question was literally if anyone else besides him "feels bad" playing anything past nes or msx games on a handheld, what kind of fucking question even is that? Is it ESL and trying to say he feels physical discomfort, or does he actually start becoming self-conscious and distressed? Literally nobody else in the world does this.

Or is it a single listing and a dude actually bought it for the meme and is now quickly trying to get rid of it while it's still in the community's memory? >>10858129

>>10865198
Yes, the topic of piracy is typically the biggest concern with the emulation market, both the moral implications (which I personally don't give a fuck about, download/buy pre-loaded cards what you want) and the technical "skill" behind it (majority of people buying these devices literally don't know how to drag and drop files into folders on a desktop, even when you hold their hand and explain it step by step to them). Tons of people feel bad about piracy for many reasons, whether it be moral or self-conscious incompetence. After that, the second biggest issue with emulation handhelds is the shit sdcards they come with that fail 100% of the time, creating both a hidden cost behind the handhelds requiring new sdcards and alienating the tech illiterate who believe their entire device is now broken "and needs replacing".

so no, rom piracy is not a factor

Noice, thanks.
>>10865285
You think they're going to change its design and have two different models out in the wild? They're not "fixing" anything hardware related with these things at this point, why would they?

>>10865287
Ahahahaha, of fucking course Delta on iOS would have a fucking Analog Pocket skin. They know their audience.

>>10864764
The sticks are horrible.

>>10864913
What size handheld screens are you playing on? 3.5"? I have to admit that playing stuff like Megadrive and Neo-Geo on anything below 4.5" of 4:3 space is a bit of a bummer to me now. I try to play Dreamcast on my RG556 because I like the size, but truthfully it still seems a little lacking until I move up to my bigass Deck screen.

>both the moral implications
What moral implications, they're not producing these carts anymore.

>>10865375
You really don't appreciate how ignorantly scared of breaking digital laws the normies are due to Apple. One hiccup and they lose their entire Apple product "ecosystem".

>>10865298
dumb, delta isn't new just cause it came out on the app store now

>>10865205
>>10865385
Feels like this is more of an Apple user issue than a normie fearing laws issue. Especially when Apple proudly markets their customers as being computer illiterate thanks to them and their products. We also didn't have these issues for the past fifteen years where you can emulate on Android devices just fine.

Idiot, I specified "on iOS" because I specifically meant the Delta release on iOS. Words MEAN things!

Poetry.

Is there an English version of ChoroQ advance? Both versions on my R36S are in Japanese, and I didn't realize it was a fucking RPG like Custom Robo with a world map and shops and "arenas" to race in.

>>10865453
They're Penny Racers/Gadget Racers in the West, though that specific GBA RPG likely doesn't have a localization.

just beat Super Mario Land with the DX color hack on my rp2sm
and by beat I mean getting to legitimately and game overing on the 4-3 final boss, but then save stating back until I beat it

>>10865552
I used savestates to get through the final stage of GG Shinobi. Maybe one day I'll go back and grind to get it done properly...

>>10865561
You can't delete your memories, you will never beat the game.

>>10865560
I don't know why, but its really looks like it's too wide due to how much of the device the screen takes up. They couldn't have made it a little more compact (and including at least one analog nub/slider?).

I'm playing FF7 on my vertical emulation device. I recommend mapping L1=X/cancel and L2=O/confirm so you can play one handed.
R2=L1 and R1=R1 so you can still turn the camera in the overworld map when necessary.
I might map the select button to press triangle, but for now I don't mind reaching over to the triangle button.

>>10865705
What are you going to do with the other hand?

>>10865710
Having a hand free helps me find more comfortable seated positions. A free arm can do a lot to stabilize the torso and spine. That's something I learned after hundreds of hours of yoga practice though. It's just something that takes a lot of dedication to understand. Also I want to touch my penis sometimes when I see Tifa on screen.

Finally beat PSU on my RG556 last night. It starts pretty meh but gets a lot better in the second half

>>10865723
The combat in Ambition of the Illiminus already feels a lot better too no I cannot actually play at this res, just cranked it up for a pic of my create-a-waifu

>>10865625
Nah, the problem with those micro devices is that they're cramped as hell (not really that the buttons are close to each other, it's manageable, but that there's not enough grip), so I think this one is the best ratio yet, king of the manlets .
Most people might complain about "wasted space" on some devices, but for me I think it adds to grip (like the "chin" some people cry about with RP2S).

>captcha: GAYS

>>10864764
I would get the rp4 pro over the 556 exclusively because of the dogshit sticks. I have owned both

>>10865285
What's to fix? Barely holding the carts in is an intended feature!
>>10865375
Won't someone think of the develo- the progra- The suits that hold the license and don't make it available for sale.
Take the 6th gen capcom clover titles for instance. They're away, they were away in the 7th gen to platinum & tango gameworks, hell if you wanna support Kamiya he left and Inaba is currently enjoying a cushy uncontested life of games as a service at platinum proving that maybe he wasn't a genius after all.
>>10865723
>>10865725
Nice, I never got around to playing the expansion.

>>10865763
It's the curse of the comfy handheld.

>>10865720
Weird flex but based

>>10865453
road trip adventure and gadget racers on ps2 are pretty much all we have for now when it comes to takara CarPG games. there's also seek and destroy, but that's not really a racing game

>>10865758
That isn't a micro handheld, anon. It's a pocket one. Now this is a micro horizontal.

I picked up my 2011 launch 3DS today to quickly check a loose copy of Tomodachi Life before selling the game for $40, and my god, the 3DS actually isn't as unbearably uncomfortable as I remember it being. The corners weren't digging into my palms like I remembered, the sharp switches under the home/start/select sticker are still easily serviceable, though I didn't do anything intensive with the analog slider to remind myself how bad it is.

...Is there a chinkheld with the exact form factor and layout of the bottom half of the original 3DS models...? All I ever see are shitty Switch lite looking dinguses like pic related that aren't even close.

>>10865946
This would be an amazing handheld, but actually modding a 3DS into it would be fucking retarded even if you put CFW on it.

>>10865935
That's what I'm talking about, shit too cramped, might as well not exist. Bare minimum is the Trimui Smart.
Smaller than a RP2 = micro

>source?
/vr/ boomer eyes apparently

>>10865963
Trimui Smart is borderline micro and I wouldn't blame people for labelling it as one.

>>10865961
disgusting.

>>10865946
Now play a real game.
And try to use the d-pad.
Or the circle pad.
Or not mess with the volume slider from gripping it.

>...Is there a chinkheld with the exact form factor and layout of the bottom half of the original 3DS models...?
No one wants that. Closest it gets is this, a stealth Wii U handheld that goes for $700 and has no battery life.

>>10865973
I want a horizontal handheld but am so particular on what it has to be. I vaguely have an interest in the RP4, RG35XX H, and RG 28XX. But none are quite what I want even if they do everything I want emulation/software wise.

>>10865193
stop being disingenuous

>>10865982
>RP4, RG35XX H, and RG 28XX.
That's like comparing a DS with a GBC, if your bar is that low you don't need the RP4. RP2S actually has better button layout and front firing speakers. No ghosting on screen that I can tell, though I don't know how bad it actually gets on 3+/4/4P, just keep hearing people complain about it.

>>10865973
I know there's been discussion on whether the GPD DS was just a joke or is really happening, but after seeing Aya Neo actually do it, I don't think it's that far fetched. I saw this on baidu yesterday (actual post dated just under a week ago) and he seems to think it's still happening at least. Looks a lot better to me, too, much like how the GPD Win Mini looks much better than the Aya Neo Flip.

>>10865998
>>10865982
Yup. If you're fine with the smaller screen of the rg35xxh and rg28xx, then I'd just get the 2S over all 3 of those listed and call it a day.

>>10865410
delta has been out on ios, it's always been on ios you chud

>>10865993
And I thought my hands where small

>>10865973
Did anyone even buy this thing? I'd imagine there's a warehouse somewhere in China stocked with them that will just be reused for parts in the future.
