/vr/ - Retro Games

The OpenPandora may also be viable (at 1/3 the price of the even comfier GPD Win)

Actually, the best way to play retro games on the go is a Sansa Clip running Rockbox.

>>4845903
I did a lot of emulating on PSP GO and playing but I eventually developed cramps or carpal tunnel syndrome.

I'm thinking of making some custom handles as support to make it feel like a xbox controller. That or modify one of those hipster controllers for smartphones.

>>4845927

I haven't used one of these but just so you know an official one exists.

>>4845903
The controls on that thing look way too cramped.

>>4845905
Why is "Kirby" written カービィand not カービー?

>>4846069
Katakana wasn't as matured then as it is today. Similar idea with the aeris/aerith/earth argument.
I think it used to be the hyphens were used as a break between the characters, and the smaller kana was used to elongate the sound. Japanese is a dumb language and katakana/western influence has officially ruined any chance of it recovering.

>>4846393
nearly every word of this is absurdly wrong

>>4845903
I've heard good things about the retro mini handheld but haven't had the chance to test it myself

>>4846069
Because it's "Kirby" not "Kirbi"

>>4846564
Got the RS-97 (bottom right) and it's pretty cool with Dingux

>>4846069
Google both spellings. Even Japanese people confuse the spelling many times as the official one is counterintuitive.

Although having a nearly identical form factor, I prefer my X-Play over a PSP Go precisely because of its "lagdroid" OS for which there's a lot more emulator choices although the PSP native library better than Android 2.4's (I haven't updated it since it's a rare prototype with hdmi).

Making a sweeping suggestion that a platform you're unfamiliar with is "laggy" is childish.

I own one myself and I just want to clarify that "lagdroid" does not refer to emulators not having great FPS and emulating games smoothly but rather to the inherent input delay of Android.

>>4846832
>>4846817

And no, this is not a problem exclusive to "certain emulators". The whole "learn to configure your emulator properly, faggot"-argument does not apply here. The way the Android framebuffer is written does limit the platform to an extent that makes playing anything but turn based games simply impossible.

>>4845903
That picture is so comfy, what a great scene to capture too. Someday I want to try a PSPgo, until then I'll just use pic related.

>>4845909
Actually, the best way to play retro games on the go is a Sansa Clip Zip running Rockbox

>>4846839
I just beat Streets of Rage 2 on my tablet that runs Jellybean. The supposed lag is unnoticeable.

>>4846853
Rockbox (and that whole era of mp3 players) was sick. I had Doom and Ms Pac Man running on my H300 back in the day.

>>4846839
"no"

>>4846853
>Sansa Clip

that takes me back to buying my first MP3 player

for some reason the audio jack died out on me

>>4846649
As in you install Dingux on it? How well can it emulate stuff?

>>4847236
Not who you replied to, but I've heard the bottom right does most emulation up to and not including snes very well, and Snes it requires an untenable number of dropped frames to be playable. Considering getting one myself, but I really would rather wait for a portable equivalent that can actually run SNES games comfortably.

>>4845903
PSP Go is high tier but if you want to have more than the onboard 16GB memory then RIP because it uses Sony M2 memory cards, not Pro Stick Duos so no $2 MicroSD adapters for you

>>4847481
Why not just get a new3ds and homebrew? I haven't personally run into any issues with mine. SA1 and DSP games seem to work fine, SuperFX is playable.

>>4847535
I would want to get a new2ds, part of the desire is only having the one screen, I love my new3ds, but it's bulky for doing older emu. That said, I thought snes emu on the 3ds wasn't very stable? Mind you its been a year since I've dealt with it, I'm on some old ass version of cakesFW

>>4845903
New 3DS is pretty excellent, can do everything the PSP can do except PS1 and runs SNES and GBA games much better with a sharp native 240p screen. The Switch homebrew scene has been kicking into high gear recently too, it's only a matter of time before it becomes the ultimate emulation device. In theory it could anything up through 6th gen.

>>4846853
I still use my Sansa Clip for mp3s, honestly so much better than using a clunky phone touchscreen.

>>4847545
SNES on old 3DS is hit or miss, it's pretty solid on "new 3DS" as long as you're not expecting to play Star Fox or Doom.

>>4847554
Good to know, I wouldn't be majorly asspained over not being able to play the heavy mode 7 games on handheld, especially as there are only like 3 decent ones.

>>4847554
>>4847574
Don't use emulators, just use virtual console injects. MUCH better performance over standalone emulators.
https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-ultimate-snes-vc-injector-for-3ds.453891/
They've also got NES, GB/C and GBA, but it's full of flaws because nintendo never really finished developing it

I use a GCW Zero and I like it a lot, but it's pretty much impossible to get these days, so I recommend getting a RS-97 for the closest experience, albeit weaker.

The GCW does everything up to PS1 pretty well, much better than emulating on my PS Vita which has some spotty emulation besides PS1.

>>4845905
Can you even buy those things anymore?

Common sense tells me that buying a GPD Win is a terrible idea, the naive child in me tells me that it's pretty cool. Particularly the 2 since you can emulate Gamecube and PS2.

Anybody here own a Win?

The New 2DS XL is the greatest handheld emulation device of all time.

>>4847587
I've had pretty midling success using injectors for SNES games, some of them like DKC3 just never wanted to work for me. The SNES9x port gets the job done pretty well. Definitely use injects for GBA games though, the emulator for it sucks.

>>4847587
>>4847632
Also the only real problem with GBA injects is not being able to use sleep mode or save states, but the games look and run perfectly.

>>4847636
I don't want to stray too far from retro, but the GBA Pokemon would just give a white screen when launching. Also ran into a few sound glitches and some sprites/text glitching up when being drawn from offscreen on a few games. I can't remember all of them other than FFTA, Advance wars and I think Zero mission. Could be the way I tried patching them though so I'm not sure, it's been a while, you might be right. Might just go load them up right now and backup/inject some other games just to have ready to play if and when I need to go out or away at some point.

>>4847651
For the Pokémon games, you’ll have to choose the saving patch option at the end of the injector program. Unfortunately though, this removes RTC.

>>4847625
>can't play FF I thru X

>>4847693
you can play the first 6, too bad for the psx ones though

>>4847617
Yes, for around 100-130€ you can get them on German eBay. Used, but a new battery is 10€ at dragonbox and even with the 8 year old battery I get 8 hours of gameplay on mine (used to get more than 10).

>>4845903
Android. The psp is a slow laggy piece of shit for poor people that can't get a proper android.

Then next above that is a windows based handheld. If too poor for android/windows at least get a vita, you poor person.

>>4847918
I would say n3ds is between a psp and vita OLED. Maybe 3ds is close to vita with lcd? Still nothing compared to Android or Windows.

>>4846839

>impossible

So explain how I can beat Super Mario and not miss every jump faggot?

>>4847625
>that floppy hinge
I sold mine and went back to my regular 2DS

iPad: Big screen and lightweight. But do not expect to play arcade games there.

>>4847614
just buy it from retro gaming m8

can you play the older wizardry game's like Bane or VII?

>>4847614
What game is that? Looks gorgeous.

>>4847620
Yes I do ask me anything

>>4848493
There's a port of Dosbox but I've never personally checked it out to see how well it works with that sort of game.

>>4848528
Saga Frontier.

>>4849064
Wish my camera picked up the proper colours a bit better, games really do look great on a 240p screen.

>>4849067
The pixel density is really the biggest reason to pick a RS-97 or a 3DS over something more powerful.

>>4849068
Can it play gamecube or wii games?

>>4849258
No, it does up to PS1 and that's it. You want Gamecube and Wii you go buy a GPD Win 2.

>putting good money after bad by buying chinkshit
>not just getting a sony or nintendo console to hack and be done with it.

>>4849336
The latest Nintendo handhelds suck at emulation. Not sure how good a vita emulates, PSPs can emulate a decent amount yeah but good luck finding a used one that's in nice condition

I use my psp go as my main ps1 game machine, since my actual ps1 library is pretty small. Havent run into any issues with official PS1 Classics, and they look great via component and display at 240p.

>>4847614
>much better than emulating on my PS Vita which has some spotty emulation besides PS1.
To be fair the potential for the homebrew scene on the Vita has been extremely limited up until recently. Hopefully with Henkaku enso and being able to run CFW on firmware 3.68 July 1st things will pick up greatly.

>>4849776
I doubt it. When the PSP came out, it got the support because it was the only handheld you could buy with that kind of emulation potential (ignoring the GP32 for a moment). Now in times of the Vita, Sony have stepped up their bullshit and you can buy a gazillion devices that are easier to write/optimize emulators for.
>GPD Win
>Lagdroid devices and phones
>Chink handhelds like the RS-97 or the GCW Zero
>3DS which already includes many great emulators and has a growing homebrew scene
>gameboy zero (and other raspberry pi devices that support retroarch)
>openpandora and soon™ pyra if you are autistic
>PocketCHIP and other pico-8 capable devices if you are autistic and poor

There is little incentive to use the vita for homebrew and emulation with that many more open alternatives.

>>4850304
Man, that takes me back. I remember hacking my psp in 2004, being absolutely stunned that I could now play basically all gameboy and SNES games on the go (back then people weren't obsessed with accuracy and SNES9xTYL was good enough for me to finish all megaman and super star wars games on the go). Good times, now I don't want to use any device that doesn't support retroarch.

>>4850313
psst, the PSP supports retroarch

>>4849348
Import a new Vita from Japan for the upcoming exploit, or get a N3DS/N2DS XL.

Admittedly, GPD Win 2 and Pyra look pretty good, too.

Or you can just use your existing computer or phone if you are desperate.

Buying trash does no favors to anyone

>>4845927
Ditto here. PSP ruined my hands. Some days I had to stop playing because of pain.

>>4850304
How much do those pandora go for they look kinda neat

>>4850676
I know and I did not claim otherwise. This was related to other handhelds such as the RS-97, which only supports outdated, terribly optimized emulators.

Sorry for offtopic, but seeing so many android emulator wizards, I couldn't help myself.
How do I configure PPSSPP on android for Patapon to work on touchscreen without having to tap half of the beat earlier? I have a PSP, Xperia Play and Galaxy S7 right infront of me and everything but PSP just feels like shit.

Also ontopic, agree with OP on the PSP, but fuck the GO, the buttons are hot garbage and I will fight anyone who would oppose me on this fact.

What's with all the bug men with their pspgo?

Please find me one (1) place where the Pandora is even close to 2/3 of what a GPD Win costs.

>>4851361
That's skin flakes caught in the textured grid surface of the analog stick, which is common for the PSP, but that guy's a turd for not cleaning it. I don't think I've ever seen it that bad.

>>4850910
no anon I meant the Latte iPearl S,it's a great little MP3 player that can double as a FM radio

I have a 2000 PSP with a dead battery. I want to get a portable SNES emulator going. Am I better off replacing the battery or should I give the RS-97 a go?

>>4851636
Replacing a battery on a psp is both cheap and easy to do. Give that a try

Now with the definitive Henkaku coming, Vita will be the absolute best.

>>4851249
What the fuck is a bugman supposed to be?
>Stretching your games
Nevermind, I don't really care what you have to say now.
>>4851382
Looks like mould.

>>4851802
best for ps1 maybe, but thats about it. a new 3ds/2ds model is better for nes, snes, gb/c and game gear not only because they homebrew scene has matured there, but also because nintendo has made official emulators for these systems that look and run great (apart from nes virtual console being dark and non native res but that is fixable with homebrew)

>>4851818
>being this retarted

>>4851835
How so? All vita has aside fron adrenaline is retroarch which doesnt run all that great. Every homebrew emulator on new 3ds runs better than the vita counterpart.

>>4851835
>retarted
>>4851840
He's KINDOF right though. When henkaku can be thrown onto any and every vita regardless of version, more homebrew developers will have access to a machine to develop on, rather than having to pay out the ass for a compatible version from ebay.
The vita is MUCH more powerful than the n3ds. It'll be able to run n64 and possibly even some non retro consoles without a hitch.
>All vita has aside fron adrenaline is retroarch
Stop talking about stuff you know nothing about. There are plenty of standalone emulators. Compatibility is shoddy, but there is certainly more than just adrenaline and retroarch.

>>4851856
I should also say, that easier access to henkaku doesn't nessesarily mean homebrew developers will start developing homebrew for it. The Vita has been dead for a few years now, and aren't even being sold anywhere outside of Japan due to low sales. So I'd be surprised if homebrew developers still think it would be worth their time compared to the 3ds, or even the switch at this point- which has already been hacked.

>>4850313
Why are the Go's still so expensive?

I would have thought they have dropped in price by now?

>>4851363
I just purchased one for 130$ on German eBay.

>>4851856
Please see >>4850304

The Switch is very close to being the best portable emulation device on the sole merit of its hassle free 2 player capabilities. The emulators are still lacking but the FBA port is not bad.

>>4851943
They tanked really early into release and were discontinued shortly after. Not too many were made.

Hell, in Europe they launched *after* they were supposed to be discontinued.

>>4852103
>Switch
>portable

The Vita is the best we will ever get. All new non-Nintendo devices will either be phones, essentially, or very low circulation specialty devices, or garbage chinkshit. Get a Vita. You can still import a brand new one from Japan

>>4846649
I hear the screens are kinda bad and only run at like 42hz

>>4851636
Snes on psp isnt grest

>>4852128
I'd like it to be great, that's a deciding factor. Better or worse than the RS-97? Are there any alternatives with similar size or form factor?

I finished Megaman X 2, Super Metroid and Metroid Zero Mission on a Huawei p10(custom rom but still lagdroid) with a 8bitdo bluetooth controller.
The input lag only matters if you're playing stuff like Punch Out or Ninja Gaiden NES, IMO.

What's this I hear about lag when using an Android tablet for emulation? What's to stop me from buying one and using a 8bitdo bluetooth controller to play some games? Is it a stupid idea?

>>4852172
It has a bit of an input lag because of the way android as an operative system works, that said it's not as bad as they say IF YOU ALREADY OWN an android device.

That's the big point, if you are buying something solely for handheld emulation then android is not for you, but if you already have something decently recent around it's better to try that first before buying a dedicated device.
If after that you're not satisfied with it then look into dedicated devices.

>>4852172
Bluetooth gamepad + Android equals input delay of more than 120ms on average. Some people don't really feel it all that much so just get one and try it out. You can always just resell it.

>>4852119
Yes, the screens suck but I can't confirm that they don't run at 60hz. Problem is that they don't have square pixels and it looks weird playing games on their native resolution. I'll post a photo later.

>>4851856
>The vita is MUCH more powerful than the n3ds. It'll be able to run n64 and possibly even some non retro consoles without a hitch.

Why are you making stuff up? Retroarch currently runs like shit on that device, whereas the switch can already emulate GameCube games and its been hacked like a month ago. Want to know why? Because it uses a standard arm chip with a GPU that's mainline Linux supported (through mesa). The vita is a locked down piece of shit with no support and not that many people even owning one. For a great n64 emulator you need people optimizing one for that specific hardware and that just didn't happen until now and claiming that some new exploit is magically going to change that is just stupid wishful thinking.

>>4852254
>muh retroarch
fucking hate how those shitters astroturf'd their barely working shit into everything and destroyed actually good emulators.
9 times out of then a snes9x port will work better than retroarch MUH HIGAN MUH BSNES ports, same for genplus gx vs running it in retroarch.

>>4852263
Snes9x is available in retroarch and works just fine on most devices that aren't locked down, unoptimized garbage.

>>4852263
>>4852283
I wasn't trying to say that higan or bsnes should he used. I just used retroarch as an example because that's usually one of the more actively maintained emulators for any device. Whatever, pick something else, my point still stands: currently there is no n64 emulator with a good compatibility and performance for the Vita and I doubt there will be anytime soon.

>>4852254
What's the state of N64 and Dreamcast emulation on the Pandora?

>>4852412
>n64
Good, though not as flawless as on the GPD Win or most Android devices

>windows 10

Can I install 7 on it instead?

>>4853279
You can and should install GNU/Linux on it you colossal fagmeister

>lagdroid
oh you are making me so mad.
I just completed Super Metroid last week, played it with a bluetooth joypad on a Chromebook with a celeron processor running SNES9x for Android in a container. You lagfags would have us believe this set-up wouldn't execute commands until the day after I pressed the button. Absolutely no fucking lag whatsoever I was wall jumping like a pro.

>>4853314
I just like the aesthetic's on 7's feel and general light look it had going for it compared to XP 8 & 10 just feel off to me

>>4853320
ChromeOS' Android engine might not suffer from input lag, I have not tested it. But since you used a bluetooth controller I just assume that you're on total 100% post purchase regret.

>>4853331
You're moving the goal posts.

>>4853329
7 looks chunky compared to 10 tho? What are you seeing that we are not.

10 is for patricians. 7 is for chinese.

>>4853416
Moving the goal post would mean something like "well even a slight input delay would justify calling Android Lagdroid". That's not what I am saying at all. I am saying that Chrome-OS renders the framebuffer in a different way than Android and therefore might not be victim to the same limitations. I would not know as I've never coded an emulator for Android containers in Chrome OS. I do however know what I'm talking about when it comes to Android.

What are some good pc games I should get for my gpd win

>>4852150
It works just fine. I’ve beaten several games on it, the only games I have had trouble with are the donkey Kong country games. It helps to use a good emulator

>>4853607
Diablo I & II

Wizardry 8 or Ultimate Underworld

Emulate Grandia for the Playstation then play the second one

maybe go with Xanadu Next if you like playing single player dungeon crawlers

If you want to get really lost on those rainy night's play Arena or Daggerfall maybe Oblivion if you can't get over the graphics of the other two

GPD Win 2 is king.

Doesn't the Vita do everything the PSP can?

>>4853686
What's the major difference between it's older model?

>>4851943
I kid you not I bought my psp go for $2.

You just can't say "comfy" and "PSP Go" on the same sentence.

It's just for tiny baby hands.

>>4853320
Lagdroids highly depend on unchangeable hardware, so they're like Macs. Input lag isn't actually a problem for me so much as having a Lagdroid that can't even play a Lagdroid game without stuttering every 5-10 minutes and requiring to pause until it goes away.

Since it's rooted, I would like to know if there's a permanent way of removing the Google Play Store app. I'm positive that would fix a lot of peeps' problems with this garbage thing.

About 2-3 times more powerful.
GPD Win 1 has a Z8700 Quad Core Cherrytrail Atom CPU and an intel HD405 onboard graphics processor and 4gb Ram.
GPD Win 2 has a 7Y30 Core M processor (7th gen core m dual core) and an intel HD615 onboard graphics processor and 8gb ram.
Win 1 could barely run 2D PS2 fighters and run like 3 Gamecube games with massive speed hacks.
Win 2 can handle most of the PS2 library. Some games with the software renderer. And pretty much most Dolphin titles at 720p internal renderer, and with hybrid. It only slows down on the desert level of FZero GX to about 40/50fps.
The Win 2 is so powerful in comparison, if you set it to 3w TDP instead of 7w, its STILL more poweful than the Win. At 3 watts.
This thing is a handheld beast.

If anybody has experienced or knows a solution to the following Retroarch issue, please let me know. I have experienced it on two Android devices.

I mean, So far its smooth sailing. I can even make GBA emulate properly using Adrenaline PSP GBA emulators.

Everything I have wanted on a handheld I've been able to get on the vita.

>>4854084
That webm can't possibly be correct, yoshis island has 3rd frame response, meaning there should be 50ms (3*1000/60) of input delay on top of the PSP and lagdroid delay. The creator of the webm must have counted wrong and I suspect the play's input actually delay exceeds 100ms for that game.

>>4854084
Also 30ms is insanely good, that's about native hardware CRT level of good

>>4853828
Mine cost me 480 quid because I indiegogo'd it. Same ballpark as a laptop of similar spec honestly.

>>4854084

On another note... i use my gp2x and gpd win for most emulation purposes, but i also own an extensive library of gb/gbc and game gear games, which i only play gameboy games on a sp. I play game gear on my gp2x, Saturn games on my master race saturn. Everything else gets played on my wii. I also have a few modded ds' for wierd japanese ds games.

More often than you think. Its got great versions of games a few nice exclusives and the midp 1.0 games that work are nice, like megaman rocket christmas edition and mr.driller. i own most of the library and the only game that really sucks is call of duty! Surprisingly, splintercell is quite good.

>>4853925
Vita is my choice
I can play all FF games, the best Suikoden, Megaman, Gradius not even to mention the ship load of arcade comps it has. True portable heaven.
For everything else I'll just play on PC or something.

>>4856458
Would you personally recommend the GPD Win? I kind of want one but I'm struggling to find a justification for it when I already have a Vita.

>>4845903
Why the hell do threads like this stick around? Sage and move on to better threads. Windows/Android/Vita are the only options. And vita is just if you are poor and can't get a win/android device.

>>4856501
I would get the win 2. Im probably going to sell mine to get one. That being said i love collecting handheld systems, if you have a hard time coming up with a reason to buy one... you may not want to buy one. But playing fallout nv, morrowind and dues ex in bed is pretty pretty pretty comfy!

>>4856467
because you wouldn't get the same aesthetic anon just look at pic-related

Im only really interested in PS1 emulation other than the PSP
What else would be perfect for PS1 emulation at a reasonable price?

>>4856560
Just use your phone

>>4856240
This is sound advice. My first Win (second batch of the first version which I bought from Geekbuying) can't turbo boost else it overheats and bluescreens. But it doesn't seem to suffer from the swollen battery issue thats common in later models, or at least my ocd ritual of turning it off fully, letting it cool, then charging only while its off and upside down on a flat surface helps. Still works pretty good at 99% cpu. Mine's lasted a good couple of years.
Not that turbo helps an Atom much anyway. The tradeoff on thermals and battery life isnt worth it.
The Win 2 prototypes were very well made from the videos I saw so I took a punt on the Win 2. Mine's been great so far. (Though I reckon my unit is from the batch that didnt cut the heatsink film properly, but I've never had the need to open it up and check.
The GPD XD I own from the batch that had flaky paint is still going good. Paint flaked off a bit. Battery lasts a long time

>>4856598
The film on heatsink business is about the Win 1, not the win 2 to clarify.

>>4847481
I have a rs-97 and it runs everything up to snes Genesis flawlessly (except some superFX titles). Some recent software updates have made it a great device.
It even runs some psx games well (mostly 2d titles) and some other games, like doom, quake, point and click with scummvm and arcades.

>>4856503
BEcause people love the simplicity of emulating on the psp. The fact we still talk about it ten years after release is a testament to its amazing longevity

>>4856501
The thing plays lots of pc games at good quality. Something you can’t even imagine on your vita. There’s a lot of
Good retro pc games out there

How is the Snes emulation on the vita?

>>4856979
it's not too bad actually

Anyone know if/when warosu's search function will be fixed? Trying to search older psp threads

>>4856503
>implying

why would you even use a phone when open padora exist & soon pyra will take off like a hot cake with waffles

keep in mind at the price point you could be buying a switch instead

>>4857674
Yeah, i was thinking of getting a pyra, until i found out about the gpd win. Also i wish the psg would have been real. I know its not, but check this out.. it could be done in the near future!

I mean fuck that thing is slick, the dumbasses should have just waited on it until its cheap enough to produce.

>>4857769

It look slick but as we have known now it won't come out as it was a fake.

I just recently got a GPD Win 2 myself and have been wondering what emulator setups people are using on it.
I'm used to using individual emulators and setting those up, but I want to know a good all-in-one solution and launcher.

I've never delved into Retroarch, Emulationstation or stuff like that. One of the main issues is that you need to launch applications with the X-input switched on, else they won't detect it after doing whatever you need to do with the mouse.

There is nothing is comfy as this

>>4856467
>Lagdroid

>>4857934
They should make a GDP Win Mo

>>4857674
What does the Pyra offer over the Win or Win 2? Because it has lower specs than the Win 1, a higher price point at this point in time, and little to offer besides Linux, at least to my uneducated eyes.

>>4857934
what anime is this?

>>4857934
is that ADOM?

is there any english site I could feasibly buy these from seems like they went out of production quite awhile ago for some reason

Is there any benefit to doing the RPi inside a replacement gameboy shell mod, or is that a waste of time?

>>4858103
Looks like Video Girl Ai.

Are those strange small computers like the GPD Win worth their usually hefty price? Is there a buyer's guide for these sorts of machines anywhere? I would like to have one for emulating on the go but I don't really know if they're worth it because I've never known anyone who actually had one.

>>4857915
Epsxe2 for ps2
Epsxe for ps1
Yasabuse or whatever for saturn

Etc...

>>4856458
Im almost done converting jpn ps1 games to eboots pretty close looking to psn eboots. I have 25 games that you wont find to download as an eboot, plus a few that were a bitch to even get working bin/cue files for. Anyways if anybody is interested i could upload them somewhere (possibly archive, but most likey emuparadise forums) for you. Here is a list

>>4858454
Heres an example

>getting a flashcard to mod the n3ds/n2ds can take up to two months
IF I DIDNT ALSO HAVE AN O3DS I WOULDVE BEEN PISSED

>>4858457
Looks good!

>>4858454
>taking a picture of your computer screen
Why do you do this.

>>4858448
I mentioned an all-in-one launcher solution specifically, not individual emulators or cores.
I gave Retroarch a go though, starting with For the Frog the Bells Tolls, and it seems to work pretty nicely with the Gambatte core.

>>4856438
>unsorted stuff

Ew.

>>4858568
Shut up lump, go eat a garbage bag or something.

>>4858970
No, dont do it!

>>4858092
Its just a linux fanboy thing. You really think youll be playing more games on a pyra over a win? No fuckin way, just get the win 2 and be happy you only have to fidget with a tiny pc than a tiny linux machine. Hey, unless you like fidgeting with tiny linux.

>>4859169
That's vague. Should I avoid Retroarch, the Gambatte core?

>>4851249
I got Mario 64 on my PSP. Eventually gave up and just emulated 64DS on my 3DS

>Not Sailor Venus or Sailor Mars
Shit taste confirmed.

>>4859168
What?

>>4856517
lol think again

>>4847625
You won't be able to play the upcoming N3DS only VB emulator in 3D, anon.

>>4847503
Wait couldn't you just buy a sandisk m2 micro SDHC?

>>4860172
Yes. If you can find them.

>>4859584
Green is my favorite color.

>>4859717
Youre dirt.

Do what you want, it takes time to gigure out a setup you like and im not helping you with mame shit.

Ha been my retro portable emulator machine for excelence in the latest years.

>>4857934
What kind of camera did you use?
Did you use color correction software?
This picture looks really good.

but why would you leave your house?

>>4860805
Sometimes it's just nice to play in bed, or on the toilet, or while on the couch with the tv as background noise, or while outside having a smoke in the morning.

>150€ for a device that can run the latest version of Retroarch is expensive
OK fampai, how about you stop bring poor? I'll not even mention the close to 100 software releases and updates this device got in 2018, 10 years after it's initial release. I currently play Diablo II on mine and it was half the price of a GPD win (used).

>>4860931
>fampai
Stopped reading there. Kill yourself cancerous faggot.

>>4860932
Why are you mad?

>>4860938
Why are you so blatantly underage?

>make $800 emulation device
>no grips, no palm rest
Why do they do this.
Even the fucking Switch is guilty of this, if you have man sized hands you WILL get cramps.

>>4857934
you oghta be running tmux instead of multiple terminal emulators

>>4861228
This is obviously a staged photo, the upper terminal is showing neofetch, which is not a running application but just a printout

What's a good kit to make a raspberry pi into a gameboy like device?

>>4845903
This is literally all you need

That's the PSP Carbon.
It's literally the one if you don't have money.

Kite's Circuit Sword is regarded the best solution in terms of quality but it's kinda expensive. Pre-orders are up right now:
https://www.sudomod.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=6145
https://github.com/kiteretro/Circuit-Sword/wiki
If you want a ready-made device then look for 1up's Gameboy Pi (warning: Chink device with 3D printed aftermarket shells)

Generally it's a good idea to lurk sudomod a bit to get familiar with all current projects. Tinypi and Mintypi are a lot cheaper than Kite's Circuit Sword but they are zero based, while his is RBPi3 based (compute module, not the regular pi3).

Gaboze Pocaio looks very promising as it uses a Gameboy Pocket shell.

I might end up building one of these.

does anyone know how sketchy emulators on iphone are?
i keep looking up tutorials and it seems like there's a million ways to do it but can't help but think they're all just viruses

Nice taste m8

>>4856501
anon it can play both Elite for MS-DOS---->Oolite & Elite Dangerous

so if you love space games give it a go
