>pointy m*cro corners
>redditmon on screen
it's shit.

What shaders and overlays should you use for GBA on a 640x480 device? I assume it should be gba color (if needed) -> sharp shimmerless -> lcd grid shader or overlay. I'm just not sure what to use for the lcd effect and if it works well with sharp shimmerless or needs integer scaling.

>>10946913
I bought a micro to play at work years ago, and I think I've used it less than five times. It's just such a massive downgrade from the SP in every way. I swear the praise comes from people who never had one.
At least Anbernic was smart enough to make these things a usable size.

>>10946923
I'm also wondering if any anons have created nice LCD overlays for GBA. I know GB ones exist.

>>10946923
Easiest way to get a big sharp image is this
>>10946917
Where the fuck do you see pointy corners on this thing you spastic

There is a PS5 controller that lets you swap the position of the analog sticks so you can choose to have it be d-pad or stick centric. When will we see this on a handheld?

>>10946923
>What shaders and overlays should you use for GBA on a 640x480 device?
Integer scale
No linear filtering
No shaders
No overlays

Found this after a but of Googling. Looks promising.

>>10946951
Too small
Just dont be a retard and you too can have a nice image

>>10946948
This controller costs $200 and apparently the quality isn't even that great. Love the concept though.

>>10946923
I want to know what combo of shader and overlay ambernic is using on the sp for gba
It actually looks really good

So much for it "only going up a few bucks after initial release." This shit is reaching $90

>>10947005
tick-tock! time's running out!

>>10947005
Retards will pay for it anyway.

>>10947005

What the fuck, who are you buying from?
Anbernig usually charges 20 or so

>>10947005
Told you so
This will be miyoo mini all over again

>>10947005
long long long

whats the point of the odin 2 when android emulation is capped at ps2/GC and aethersx2 development is in a gutter

>>10946923
LCD1x, 3x & dot grid are prob the best for handheld stuff and even emulating on PC. On PC or a device that supports vulkan retro v3 isn't so bad.
If you're not looking to transform the image I will take it upon myself to shill sharp shimmerless like the anon in the past shilled it to me.

>>10947023
I dunno about the odin 2, but android can play Wii, 3DS and two or three Switch games and has access to streaming services like Steam Cloud. The only things it can't emulate are Xbox, 360, Switch and PS3, but those are barely playable or have native ports for PC.

>>10947005
If Anerbnig fans and people who fall for nostalgia want to pay 90 let 'em, let it be $120 and compete with the 2s.
Let it compete with the 405m even, creep up to 180, hingest are expensive!

>>10947036

i love the ambernic sp form factor, but will it really explod my hands?

>>10947054
PowCHADdy will always prevail. Miyoo's sneak attack will be deadly.

>>10947054
I would dive on the chance to get a v90 that could ACTUALLY run gba
thats all I want

no sticks
no n64
no dreamcast
no exploding battery

just a slightly better SP

>>10947072
when you attempt to run PSP

>>10947102
why in gods name would i play psp or ps1 or n64 or dreamcast on THIS

>>10947072
No lol

>>10947061
Fuck off, there literally are no anbersisters. Literally nobody supports or purchases Anbernic' shit, especially not yourself.
No, you're a retard that's just regurgitating lingo you've seen from previous threads without any context or understanding or why they were said or well received. Especially with you doing the "sisters" shit rather than "chaddies". You're a self-admitting spergalord who just regurgitates what he sees others posting in a desperate hope of fitting in or being seen as normal. You're not. You have asperger's. You're retarded. You're just annoying everyone with your presence let alone injective quips which you impulsively make just for the sake of feeling included and involved. Fucking stop it.
Bad jokes are bad jokes, especially when they don't appreciate why the source material is appreciated let alone found to be amusing. This is like an autistic Amy Schumer flailing at being funny.
Just go full Michael Richards and call us all niggers for not liking your failed attempt at comedy that doesn't understand why the original sentiment was amusing to being with already, it'll save us all time.
>I was serious. Take me seriously!
Good joke

>>10947005
It matches the price of buying it off of anbernic's site with the shipping included. So the "free shipping" is a lie. But you're not paying extra.

>>10947054

>>10947072

>>10946923
480p is tricky because a 2x integer scale is too small, but 3x cuts off too much. 2.5x is a good compromise, but you absolutely need an interpolation shader.
This is what I'd use:
>2.5x scale
>gba-color + pixelate
>a simple overlay
You might be able to get away with some kind of pixel grid, but 480p is so limiting.

>>10947109
I wonder if the other companies making clamshells are gonna add thumbsticks. I actually don't want thumbsticks on this thing. It looks so ugly with thumbsticks.

>>10947162
i want thumbsticks... but not like THIS!

>>10947162
>I wonder if the other companies making clamshells are gonna add thumbsticks.

Anerbnic got too greedy.
They stuffed 3300mah battery into their bomb when the SP only needed 900ma.

Shoulda stuck to their scope.

Permanently ban these mindless ChatGPT posts already, holy fucking shit you incompetent mods. The last three threads were like 25% bot replies pretending to be ignorant zoomers to start fights/arguments.

>>10947109
I agree with N64, Dreamcast, and PSP, but PS1 is 4:3 and 99% of PS1 games don't require joysticks and were designed for a d-pad. It's perfect on this.

>>10947176
Kek-lmao. That was cancelled.

>>10947167

I actually have to give it to ambernig for not cheaping out

>>10947176
>muh op
No one cares about your shit op retard. Also that ewaste isn't coming out anymore. At least try to know what you're talking about.

>>10947187
only ps1 games ive ever played are ape escape, mega man legends, pepsi man, klonoa. If i want to play mega man legends 2.. I will need 2 of the analog sticks. This is unacceptable to me.

>>10947201
What other clamshells could possibly be coming out besides the Miyoo Mini Flip then, tough guy? Swallow less dicks and stop being an obtusive little faggot.

>>10947206
I 100%ed legends 2 a few months ago
I was so used to the dpad from legends 1 that I just used it most of the time.
I bet you dont even have an S class license
I dont usually care about getting all the weapons and whatnot, but I actually didnt want the game to end.

>>10947162
>>10947167
Just replace the dpad with a thumbstick?

>>10947217
i certainly do not have an S classs license. i havent played MML in maybe 2 years, but i still wanna check out the tron bonne game and MML2

>>10947206
I prefer Legends 2 with d-pad and shoulder buttons for turning. I actually played it in 2000 before playing the first game unlike >>10947217

>>10947223
Fucking casual
Never bring up megaman legends ever again.

>>10947023
It also plays switch, and even with the amount of games it doesnt play, it's a ridiculous amount of games you can play on a single handheld with good battery life because of ARM.

>>10946897
I have heard that oled displays have better motion clarity than ips screens. Is this noticable on oled handhelds like the rg556? Or does the 60hz refresh rate limit it? Haven't seen this possibility brought up on any of the reviews I watched.

max width allowable with pixelate shader.

35xxsp baidu impressions: It seems the sensor quality is a lottery. Some users units can't turn black when closed because the sensor is defective or it was installed backwards while others have the opposite problem with it turning black with a slight flick at best. Will watch the thread for more.

what did he mean by this

when the 35xxsp arrives to the buyers, and not a single warm-up shit happens, I will be the first to laugh at you. It's silly to think that such weak hardware is going to get so hot.

>>10947547

>>10947669
Yes, playing title screens won't heat it up that badly, Russ. We get it.

>>10947547

Typical with these Chinese devices. Always wait for the refresh/improved model or at the very least the second batch of manufactured units.

>It's silly to think that such weak hardware is going to get so hot.

I adore my RG280V and own a Miyoo Mini Plus, I think Anbernic is superior (OnionOS is PERFECT tho), but I would go to Pow Kiddy if they pull this one right.

>>10947054
Is the current V90 worth it for snes? I would like to buy it just for its shape.

It feels barely worth it for GBA, even with the new CFW the tearing is really annoying.
It's a good device to throw around in your bag and not worry since it's cheap.

Why do these companies keep getting rotated screens?

Just accept your ego death and buy a miyoo mini

Gimme the ultimate handheld. Something that's as powerful and pocketable. No Deck, no Odin. And no Switch.
I'm willing to splurge whatever

>>10947821
The best combination of both powerful and pocketable right now is the RP4 Pro.

>>10947821

>>10947825
In a ideal world
>Odin 2 Mini with a regular ips
>Odin 2 is the same
>Odin 2 Pro is the same but with a OLED screen
The only "upgrade" between regular and pro 2 are the colors and the ram/memory.

>>10946942
Any reason why you're using filters instead of a sharp bilinear shader?

>>10947834
Is MiniLED even good compared to OLED? If not, they could've just gotten their hands on the same screens that Ayaneo and Anbernic apparently have.

>>10947821
Ayaneo pocket S

>>10947843
Should be both brighter than OLED and last longer

>>10947832
It would be hilarious if it rivaled the Odin 2. Never happen though.

>>10947843
it's just a regular lcd but with the backlight divided into segments so it can localize brightness. it has a halo like effect around bright images on black backgrounds. better than lcd, but not as good as oled, but it should last longer than oled, and doesn't get burn-in.

>>10947783

That's about it, GB is the N64 of handhelds where there are about 10 good games and the rest is forgotten trash

>had to load up some 16bit games on RP4P to convince myself I didn't need the 35XXSP
That was a close one. I bought one for a friend and almost added a second for myself, but I would rather wait for a revised model or better version down the line than give in to the fomo.

Reminder that there has never been a better time to buy a V90 while the anbernig flop goes out of stock before it even releases.

>>10948307
All the SP clones will inevitably have the battery on top of the chip, can't be helped.

>>10948307
All jokes aside: It'll only degrade battery life and that's about it.

Lithium batteries aren't perfect as a technology, there's some sanity stuff you need to do like not overcharging them (keeping the charger plugged in etc), cycling them at 25-80% regularly only giving them a full charge now and then. You can even fast charge 'em which generates heat from the battery so long as it's given a chance to cool later.
If you regularly discharge the battery below 20-25%, let it run down to 0%, don't soft charge (80-90% peak), leave it plugged in to charge then yeah the added heat will definitely screw you over but the battery will perform alright
Just be mindful about these things, charge it with the base of the unit facing. If the battery door has a clip instead of screws my autism would lead me to take it off during charging but that's just extra hoops to go through.

On the software side, if the OS allows you to underclock and you're running light loads, no shaders etc, not regularly FFWing then eh, could be good to do that to try and reduce the heat dumped into the battery but it's not a huge concern. If you're buying it for PSX, DC, PSP etc or whatever then idk, get another device if your form factor autism can be sated.
If you're looking for that form factor, go for it, maybe ambernig is for you, may powchaddy or miyoonehitwonder will have better designs.
I'd wait and see until the units are in the hands of people, if it has battery/sleep issues like the RGB30 and you can't baby it, I'd look for alternatives.

Is it stupid to place the battery right next to a CPU with almost no clearance or as a heatsink?
Hell yes it is, but it's not the end of the world. It'll still work for you but you may be replacing the battery in a year or two.

>>10948113

>>10948309
>All the SP clones will inevitably have the battery on top of the chip, can't be helped.
There's definitely room for innovtion in regards to where you place the processor, it could go at the base of the unit flipped with some vents if you place the speaker smarly, place the battery higher up on the unit behind the buttons, charging/SD ports on the side maybe?
The truly chad engineering move is splitting the board to allow something like that but chinks ain't gonna go for a 2 board solution when they can just slap a battery on top of a chip and ship.

>>10948384
Chip produces heat. It's very retarded for batteries to get hot. Battery is used as heatsink. So retarded, even powkiddy stopped doing that shit.
>>10948389
Your rp3+ will be bumfucked eventually, but at least it uses a common battery. Retroid purposely used a custom battery for the flip so it couldn't be replaced.

Why are custom box arts so ugly in my Daijisho?

The scraper is fairly laking so I'm forced to upload my own art; the original file itself is alright but it gets compressed to oblivion by the launcher and I can't tell why.
I tried to toy around with the pic and it seemingly doesn't matter (PNG or JPEG, huge or ridiculously small filesize, low res of 4k, it still kills the quality no matter what). I only managed to get a slightly better result by upscaling the box art to 5000x5000 but it still doesn't look good and it's honestly a shitty workaround.
What's causing this? What am I doing wrong?

>>10948384
no heatsink or vents, it's gonna throttle after a few mins on 3d games like a laptop does

That was a lot of faff but it's not over.
The device now only boots when the SD card is in, I knew that'd be the case but the annoying part is that it can only charge if it's booted up.

I'm gonna need to figure out copying the TF1 ROCKNIX installation to eMMC at some point.
The SSH process had me making a backup of the Android eMMC to an image file, I'm not that familiar with Linux SSH usage but it seems likely that I can image the TF1 contents to the eMMC and might be able to boot it that way.

So do I have to wipe android now? So annoying, I had it patched to add google play support

>>10948563
Unfortunately yeah it seems like RG353 devices have to pick between staying on JELOS, or wiping Android to get ROCKNIX booting in a somewhat compromised way.

I don't really understand why eMMC versions of RG353 devices aren't supported by ROCKNIX, some sort of bootloader issue apparently?

the micro was a product of the time when all electronics where shrinking and that was seen as this great progress as opposed to now, where its all about big screens (but still shrinking transistors). nobody was asking if it even made sense to make such a small handheld.

>>10948587
Interesting, that gives insight into why sleep with RG353P and JELOS was generally unstable.
By Mainline u-boot they probably mean a component of the system or CFW being used and not modified for sanity reasons. So the current state of Linux versus older kernals.

The lack of JELOS support was actually a big part of why I skipped the ARC-S / ARC-D actually, if it can support ROCKNIX that's cool.

I still had sleep-wake failures on ROCKNIX with a wiped eMMC though, so that's even more reason for me to want to install ROCKNIX to run from eMMC instead of TF1.

It looks like you're in the Discord server, has there been any discussion about such action?

All much appreciated.

>>10948587
>>10948741
Oh yeah and JELOS-RK3566.aarch64-20240206.img.gz is what I downloaded yesterday to resolve my ROCKNIX installation, but a filename isn't enough and hashes matter to know the integrity of a given binary.
JELOS wiping all of their binary hashes from their Github was a seriously poorly thought out move. Did they not consider providing a JELOS LTS build for the Anbernic devices with eMMC / Android support?

>>10948727
I suppose, but do you really need an exponential increase in computing power to do systems like N64 and Dreamcast? I don't even mean emulating them accurately either, I mean like an early 2000s HLE level of emulation.

>>10946897
>Anbernic RG 35XX Plus

Why would you recommend this over the Arc? What are the pros of it?

>>10948723
>>10948757
PCSX ReARMed is very lightweight and old. Mupen and Flycast are modern by comparison, closest it gets is bad ancient video plugins for N64 or speedhacked to hell games like SM64 and OoT.

>>10948741
It's a general chinkheld pisscord, I try my best not to poke my head into the JELOS/ROCKNIX server because they're unbearable shitheads.

But from what I gathered, everything runs on BSP kernel, very out of date stuff. ROCKNIX seems to be based on the mainline kernel migration JELOS fags were working on and seemingly dropped at the time.

>>10948752
It happened shortly after the Yuzu scare. Even with the whole asslicking etiquette you could see people struggling to rationalize it.

>>10948757
Libretro core development always pushes for accuracy and aims for higher power processors like desktops or mobiles, not these dinky processors intended for cars but slapped in a handheld.

Legacy cores are provided for the purpose of offering HLE performant albeit inaccurate emulation, for the especially weak devices that can't quite muster full speed GBA you'd use something like gpSP instead of mGBA, or for SNES you'd use an older version of SNES9X, but will probably run in edge-cases involving homebrew or highly ambitious ROM hacks that don't work properly or at all.

It's actually not far removed from the ZSNES defense, it "works on my machine", by virtue of being old and inaccurate.

>>10948768
> closest it gets is bad ancient video plugins for N64 or speedhacked to hell games like SM64 and OoT.
Like I said, early 2000s level emulation. Why isn't that more common for low-power devices when it's enough to run stuff like SM64 and OoT? It's not like you can expect a cheap handheld to run Rogue Squadron.

>>10948768
Oh, if it was a "cover their asses" move because older builds for the beefier systems that included Yuzu, then I get it.
They probably had some sort of justification for the move and the growing pains, it's just frustrating that they seem to omit really important details for users to just get the CFW up and running by themselves.

>>10948772
So it's libretro that's to blame then.
> It's actually not far removed from the ZSNES defense, it "works on my machine", by virtue of being old and inaccurate.
I don't expect accurate emulation from cheap devices. If I want accurate emulation, I can just use my PC.

Jelos/rocknix devs are the biggest unbearable douchebag in this hobby

>>10948776
Thing is I don't recall DC emulation ever getting into PS1 levels of low accuracy (but only subtly flawed) and easy to run, what was there before this, Demul and nullDC? I forget what came before.

>>10948782
That's the weird thing, first they panic nuked all releases and announced Yuzu and Citra would get scrubbed on the next builds, then they shut it down.

>>10948807
Batocera releases had supported Yuzu and Citra previously and they didn't nuke their historic releases like that either. They just washed their hands of it, but still let users add standalone Yuzu and Citra back in if they wanted to.

>>10948797

>>10948841
What could they even tease? Pocket 4 Mini? Vertical Pocket 2s?
The flip 2 seems unlikely after their blunder.

Either 1:1 or Flip 2. Guess they could also do a vertislop.

They teased the Hawk. 1:1 meant to compete with the unicorn and rgb30

I owned an Ambernic 353M but the buttons failed twice so I sent it back for a refund. I just use a PS Vita for any retro gaming. It's easily repairable and a battery change out is quick to do. Currently playing the GBA version of Elite.

PS1 is a simple machine in contrast to N64 and DC, no AA, Z-buffer or texture correction.
Dreamcast's CPU is about 8x more powerful than PS1's. Dreamcast games also usually run at 4x resolution and double the framerate.

what model is this

>>10949191
imo a "2" should always be used to refer to that general form factor desu. They fucked up by breaking the "number = form factor" trend with the RP4. The RP4 should've been the RP3S, and the RP4P should've been the RP3S+. An RP2S with an RP4 chip should be RP2S+.

sooo what can i do with my miyoo before my sd card arrives?

also, rude

>>10949219
So you bought one without the sd card, bought one separetly, and the mm arrived before because youre an idiot.

Go play in the sun, retard

Currently waiting for the Ambernic SP one to get to my home (Bought... yesterday, I think? Email says shipping begins at May 22 but I should be looking at a extra 3-5 days.
Dunno if I will actually play Dreamcast, PSX and PSP games in it except some RPGs, but hey, at least I have the option to plug on my tv and play with a Bluetooth controller if I feel like it.

>>10949207

have you been living under a rock? gpsp in retroarch has been full speed for 5 years now

also, vita has a native n64 emulator that works pretty well (daedalus64)

I'd get a Trimui Smart Pro if it had a 4:3 screen, why does it even need a 16:9 screen?

>>10949285
Probably way cheaper to get a mass produced 5" 16:9 720p screen than find or commission a big 4:3.

>>10949285
I was mad about that at first but GBA games look pretty good and it runs PSP better than I expected. Not to mention widescreen patches.
I'll get one the next sale.

>>10949207
how do you not have a million sd cards lying around? Are you brain damaged?

>>10949205
i like the rp2s. i just want a slightly bigger screen but same form factor. Plus i want to be able to emulate more ps2 gaems.

>>10949207
you refund your sd card and go to the best buy for price match and then play

>>10949340
oh wow, a phonepost, never seen one of those before in /hhg/

and your phone has a full set of buttons and analog sticks? no? then you are using a clip-on controller, so you have two devices now, and it is no longer pocketable, and you have to keep both charged separately. why not just get a handheld at that point? oh, it's cheaper to buy a clip-on controller? what are you, poor?

>>10949340

RG300X. An underpowered and overpriced handheld at the time of release that Anbernic thought they could get away with.

>>10948765
It's a Saturn modeled chinkheld that can't run Saturn or even DC for its fighters. It's also rather overpriced, were it going for $40 something on sales like the new 35XXs there'd be a point.

>>10949285
>why does it even need a 16:9 screen?
because believe it or not chucklefuck, nobody is out there ordering custom 5 incher 4:3 screens to make a chinkheld. 4" is the largest you're realistically gonna see and the 405 is there if you want that.
The sad truth is that if you want 4:3 that's over 4 inches then you're looking at 5" > 7" 16 :9 displays unless you buy an ipad mini and a clip.
You know what I want? I want a TSP for every resolution I play except for square-ish gameboy, gimme one for chonky snes, gimme one for wonderswan/gba a 16:9 model and a nice little square badboy each being 4" in their respective ratios. Why a square badboy? Because the RGB30 sucks dick that's why and the TSP 1:1 would have a working sleep mode.

Anyway, look at equivalent resolution sizes for 16:9, 5" isn't so bad for 4:3 etc, it's when you get towards the 8:7 range that the RGB30 starts to inch out a win.

>>10948676
I get that, and I even wanted one when it came out (and probably would have gotten one if it came out before the DS). But after actually using one, I began to understand why it was marketed more as a fashion accessory than a gaming device.
It's trash.

>>10949537

Now tell us how many hours you play each handheld a week. Or do you just leave them on yourself as decoration?

>>10950068
Frontends are kino
So are verticals, you only hate them because nintendo

based black bar bemoaner

>>10950065
How would that help? I already got the pics I need, the only issue is the way the frontend handles the conversion.

>>10950069
I leave them charging, but outside of 2 particular handhelds, i play them pretty often
>switch
splatoon 3, only game i play often on that thing unless new single player nintendo game
>3ds
played smt4 recently on it, was fun. I want to play smt4a sometime. theres a lot of good 3ds and DS games.
>vita
NOTHING (aside from ape escape and playing through ff7 2 years ago)
>miyoo mini+
NOTHING (aside from playing smrpg last year)
>RP2S
playing through cave story again, was playing through paper mario n64 but i just dropped off it for some reasons. I used to use the 3ds/vita for snes/gba emulation but its too rough on those consoles, however on the RP2S its pretty good.
also why would i leave them on for decoration, Do you think im a faggot or something?

>>10946923
I just use zfast lcd for gba
dot for gb/c
zfast crt for pretty much everything else
no filters or whatever

>>10949318
They needed to get rid the of a30's chip without having another blunder like the s30. Ended up worst.
>>10949380
Vitakeks did nothing wrong so far. Not like he's looking down at chinkshelds like the last 3ds guy.

>>10949614
>Bluetooth
Kekaroo! Also, why does that look like a moga?

>Chink hinge vs chink hinge
???

>>10950027
Devil Survivor 3 never...

>>10950053
Frontend chads deserve all the help they can get. I don't use that one though.

Russ has said multiple times that chicken died last year

>>10949741
When you get them, please post here saying how many had backward screen magnets

>>10948031
No, proper sticks or no buy.
They may not be preferable to some on a squished vertical clamshell, and I don't care about that. It's fine. But don't make compromises on the more powerful horizontal clamshells that I AM interested in.

>>10950178
buy a deck

keep your giant anal logs off my pocketable handhelds

You are objectively correct..

>>10950089
There's a PM64 TTYD rom hack out there that adds some of the latter's amenities

>>10949380
Cope joey. Either tell chinks to make vita/psp clones again (That aren't bigger) or fuck off.
>>10950143
That explains the family dog and spending more time online.

>play n64
>running fine
>touch a single one of any of the settings to up the resolution
>instantly crashes every game
Fuck retroarch

>>10950107
>chink hinge
sorry noob but it's acktchuually a swedish designed hinge built by the chinks so it's ok, it's like the analogue pocket and we all know that doesn't qualify as a chinkheld so this is a swede hinge, it has nord strength built into it and folds on command by a simple flip.
It's made for seniors, so it really does just perform.
This is why you should use a phone that doesn't play games over a chinkheld. It allows you to mog others without without playing games at all and you get that sense of superiority that is essential to dominating this general and life.

Give it up, brother zhou failed and the swedes won. They even managed to not use the battery as a heatsink! now hurry the fuck up and tell me how to play some games on this damn thing.
>>10949765
If only I could play Snake II..

>>10950208
yeah i heard about that romhack, it looks cool but i never played ttyd, and i think i would like to experience the mechanical progression from 64 -> ttyd. I WOULD play the game more, but theres some mupen bug in android retroarch that makes my menus all fucked and they dont display properly on the RP2S. I'd rather dedicate my playtime to playing on PC which doesnt have these issues.

>>10950252 (me)
the game is fully functional, its just that the menu icons look weird..

>>10950223
After I did that n64 test for an anon the other day I gotta say if I change absolutely anything in RA it won't boot from the N64 menu, I gotta load up RA then load the rom that way lmao.
Doesn't really matter tho since N64 has no games.

>>10950220
>Either tell chinks to make vita/psp clones again (That aren't bigger) or fuck off.
I'd be happy with chinkhelds following the TSP formula, good ergos, plastics, buttons, build it to that spec, not too heavy, good buttons, good sleep mode. I'd even accept a TSP like android device that did PS2 that was 50g~ heavier.
If only they could find a way to make the vita style sticks do L3/R3.

>>10950246
Is it android? I think I heard of this phone. You should be able to install apks. Try that and report back.
>>10950256
Custom robo es nice.

>>10950258
Retroid's hall sticks are close enough and they click. I would legit kneel irl out of respect if they or powkiddy make something like the smart pro but powerful

>>10950262
they did tho

>>10950252
Play on Parallel or whatever that other core is called

>>10950256
Yep N64 is the one console I can't load from Daijisho, aside from some downloadable games for 3ds and Switch. I can only play them from RA directly or else the controls won't work at all.

>>10950259
Nah, it's an old style symbian like OS, similar to what you'd see on a phone in the mid-late 00's when feature phones were a thing but entry level devices still existed about the level of a basic samsung/nokia/sony ericson but less developed than say a K800i/N95.
It's 100% a dumb phone, it has an alarm, an event reminder (put your meds here), camera, FM radio, torch, calculator and ICE (medical info/next of kin) and nothing else. It's really a phone meant for seniors/disabled people/people looking for a simple dumb phone that lasts.
I got mine because after my hand surgery since I can't really use capacitive touch screens well, Phones with real input methods are a niche, I know there were blackberrys, knockoffs and the like and Nokia used to produce others but the market switched to people staring down at 16:9 or wider devices doomscrolling.

Someone like myself doesn't need to buy into the $500 phone on contract every 1 or 2 years culture because you just really can't use them without other input/assistive decies on the go. I text the number at the bus stop to get an estimated time and that's as smart as it gets lmao, straight outta 2010.
I do have a real android phone, a shitheap Huawei entry level but I need to connect a BT trackball/keyboard to operate it and the media player before I go out so I just use an old zune instead if I can..

To feed it into handhelds. I wouldn't mind an android device but I'd be wary of one with something like a touchscreen if the UI/connectivity etc isn't good. I've had a few phones in the past that were shit with BT devices.

>>10950262
huh, that sounds great. A nice TSP like within 50G with clickable sticks and a good sleep mode would be god tier. Doesn't need to upscale, just run at 1x res with SOTC or whatever and I'm golden.

>>10950294
Is it the 7050? I'm looking and it says it uses a snapdragon they use in smartphones.

>>10950337
Naaaah, it's not that advanced. The 7050 looks similar flipped up but is waaay more powerful.
This is the 2404, not listed on places like GSMA. It has a MediaTek 6261A cpu and Nucleus as it's OS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleus_RTOS
>Nucleus was released first in 1993.
I really doubt you could get any games on it or there's a big hacking/custom scene like on xda. I don't think it even has Java support even if it could be hacked in to meet like an old mid-00's feature phone.
It's a very low spec phone, like the specs say you can get 600hrs battery life out of it and I charge it about once every 3 weeks.

When anon says why don't you just use your phone; I can't. Chinkhelds just werk most of the time.

>>10950374
Oh yeah. That's not even java me. That's an acutal dumbphone.

>>10949285
just play with borders you coward.

In practice, buttons for a dpad haven't been the best executed or received. It's the separation and some people end up missing the rocking motion. I did try spit balling some hybrid dpad designs with companies and here too. One was the above mentioned but also trying different approaches to mimic decent analogue from dpad input.
