The best portable emulators are the GPD products.
It's just easier to open retroarch on an android device with dedicated controls and also be able to emulate gamecube games with dolphin.

You can even use Steam Link on it.

Are you aware that picrel was invented like right after ds4 was released? And come on, battery is not an issue, i can charge my phone literally everywhere now (there are usb power only outlets in subway, bus, trains etc). My phone doesnt even have to be in high performance mode to play 30 years old consoles. And about carrying two devices - how is it different from carrying literally two devices (a phone and a dedicated handheld)? Sometimes I think people here are retarded.

>> No.6897742

>>6897597
Phones are retarded because there's no good options for controls. Even the best telescopic controllers have pretty shit buttons and using a DS4 or Xbone controller with a clip feels awful because of the weight distribution and no one wants to carry around a controller with them. It is a shame because a 2020 smartphone is good enough to run Dolphin and Citra but without good controls, the Chinese handhelds with good build quality are still edging it out as a portable emulation option.

I do. Also how is it different from carrying a cheap chinese handheld with a bad screen? It's not even logical, you have two options of carrying two devices:

1. A powerful phone with a good, bright and responsive screen + a controller (there are a LOT of controllers, if you are worried about weight distribution you can even get a vice style one which looks like switch joycons)
2. A phone which you carry around and a chinese, underpowered piece of shit handheld with bad, lowres, blurry screen

For some reason people like you think the second option is better. Why?

>For some reason people like you think the second option is better. Why?
Because ironically, /vr/ is stupid as hell when it comes to emulation. If you want a legitimate discussion about portable emulation solutions, go to /vg/. All you're going to get from /vr/ are shills trying to hype up some flavor of the month Android knock-off.

>> No.6897780

I already gave you my reasons. I tried it with my SN30 Pro. The phone weighs the entire thing down and it's very uncomfortable to play that way. Also constantly having to take out my controller and attach it and pair it is just annoying, I just want to take something out and start playing right away. I would rather sacrifice some power for comfort because without comfort you can't enjoy playing period.

I mean at around 30 freedom bucks for a PSP, Chinese devices can't beat that. Which reminds me to say this; this should be the max you should pay for a PSP. Maybe 50 bucks for a Go. Nothing more. If you paid more than that it is a ripoff, no matter the current market price for the device. You can get better shit if you are spending more than 50 bucks.

The jewtendo minis are dystopian shovelware price gouged delibrately by jewtendo's method of only putting out just a bit of x product when money craving and also is an exudes to sue giant emu/rom sites for damages. Even more so they let normalfaggots think about things like emulators and roms and that gets the sites ddos attacked basically.

But above all it's overpriced hardware that you buy not for it's abilities tech wise but to buy the hi rez zoomerom of capitalistic laziness.

Here's another jab at it: illegal nes flashbacks have existed since the early fucking thousands.

it's too late

Fuck it.

FUCK IT FUCK IT

About the androids though, a controller might only cost like ten usd faggot. They're capable of basically being an all around computer too, not just an emulator console. Watch videos, read books, even program a fucking game on the thing to be played on the android if you wanted. install love2d and some apk of a hell of a text editor and learn some shit fucking lua and suddenly-- it's fucking computer faggot how are you not getting this? Wanna buy shit hardware? Buy that. Why buy some fucking dated piece of trash? AND it's costly?

>Because you're an idiot that can't use an emulator?
I have emulators on my PC and on my phone, and have for years. I just prefer this. It's almost like you can do both! This way I have an emulator box that I can plug and play anywhere and these things you don't have experience with called "friends" instantly know what it is and can jump in and play with me, especially as it's much less janky and "wtf is that" than some cheapo android box would be. The UI on it helps too.

Honestly, as much as I love my Android phone and controller/cradle, the real issue is that a lot of phones don't let you add SD cards now. That's the most important thing to have on an emulation device: expandable storage.

>> No.6900946

Honestly, the easiest, cheapest way to make an emulation console is to buy a $99 Fire 10" 2019 edition, hack it with this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/hd8-hd10/development/official-amazon-fire-toolbox-v1-0-t3889604 then get a Blutooth controller.

The Amazon Fire 10" is dog shit without the hack to remove the Amazon bullshit, but once that's gone, it's a super high end tablet, about the same power as any top end tablet out right now.

So, for $150, you can have a 10" high res screen and a really nice $50 controller and play everything up to GameCube flawlessly.

The 3DS and Vita are the gold standard for pocket emulation. Android-based ones are alright but not quite there yet; I’d wait until the chipsets can do GameCube, and PS2 emulation needs to be freed from its proprietary shell.

Looking back on this, I may have talked down on the Android standalones too much. My point was that once they reach GameCube/PS2 reliably, they’ll be the go-to particularly if their price point remains in the double digits. It just stands currently that the Vita/3DS offers a happy medium for the used price, in terms of its potential library. Even now, however, Android ones like the Retroid Pocket series are good for the price on offer.

On the subject of Windows/x86 based portables, I am curious to see any that manage to shrink down that size. Battery life would be a bonus, if attainable
