As I said in the last but it died, I just found my old ds lite. Sadly the hinge is broken from like 2010 but eh. I’m a novice at emulation, but someone mentioned I’d just need to buy a flashcart to be able to start emulating DS/GBA games I guess? Any recommendations?

I think I finally own or have in-the-mail every retro handheld I want to own outside of the novelty stuff like the FunkeyS and Cartboy, except for one that eludes me; The Bittboy V3. I can ONLY find the Bittboy V3 on DHgate and fuck using that site ever. Where can I find me a Bittboy V3? Not shown; lime green SF2000, transparent purple Retromax, and some brown and blue Famiclone.
Once I get my Bittboy V3, I'll probably focus on getting a Retroid Pocket 3+. a Retro Pixel Pocket when they restock, and if they ever release it the Miyoo 355 Flip as my first and only Miyoo device... I just love the GBA SP as my favourite handheld of all time and the potential Miyoo Flip would be the perfect dream device for me. I just worry that Redditors will scalp them all if it ever does actually release.

The pocket truly is nothing more than Californian upper-class zoomers trying to make, "the Apple Gameboy". It feels like a shitty Gameboy Color in the hands, the shoulder buttons are a fucking joke, and the fact they have the cartridges sticking out as far as they do just goes to show that it was designed by idiots who just love Apple aesthetics and don't actually play video games. This isn't just bad design, it's demonstrably damaging design. If it truly did just come down to them wanting people to see the cartridge art of the game being played, they could have just used a transparent plastic or tempered glass. It would have made the product look even more premium, which was the only thing they were going for, AND it would have actually held the cartridges in the device.

No anon they're literally just NES multicarts. Miyoo Mini Plus and RG35XX can play up to PS1 games, MP3's, videos, you can store your own roms on them etc. It's not even the same shell, just similar form factor. Like comparing an economy car to a Ferrari

It's a Famiclone, you'll find tons of local people trying to sell them at a profit for $20 each. They only play NES roms and rom hacks. They are the epitome of chink shit/cheap knock off devices. One anon obsesses about them because they come in so many different colours but there are honestly a hundred better Famiclones out there for less money, pic related. These are not proper emulation handhelds like the Miyoo Mini+ and RG35XX, which will basically play ROMs of any game up to PS1. These devices are as different from one another as Tiger Handhelds are to N64s.

The ability to stick a physical cartridge inside and have the game just work exactly like with original hardware. Those use fPGAs, which are basically software-programmable logic circuits. If you configure them to behave like the chips used in the Gameboy Advance, they will behave exactly like the chips used in the Gameboy Advance. This is different from pure software emulation, which is the way you play those games on any other device that doesn't have an fPGA, but not in a way that matters to the average consumer because the emulators for systems like Gameboy Advance are already insanely accurate and insanely well-optimized, to the point where there is little difference between software and hardware emulation. They could have honestly just built a cartridge-dumper into the device, stick the cheapest ARM SoC they could find and make it so that cartridges would be automatically dumped and their images emulated in software, it would save them a lot of manufacturing cost and the average user of those types of devices would feel no difference. Now, you can technically have various cool gimmicks with physical cartridges because they can hold more than just ROM containing the game, but I don't know a manufacturer who really went overboard with this, especially for something like the Gameboy Advance. NES is a different story, cartridges sometimes had things like volatile RAM with batteries for saving the game progress (because NES had no persistent memory). The original Final Fantasy is one such example. Then again, I can't think of anything else that really pushed the boundaries and isn't already well-emulated.

I'm actually baffled by your comments about staging pics, even appreciating that your generation was literally taught that any word can mean anything via Common Core. Do you think people just have their shit all laying out at all times like a useless toddler? I put my shit away when not using it because I actually take care of my belongings and care about them, which is why I still have full functional tech from over twenty years ago from my childhood. No, I don't just sloppily leave it all sitting out in the open like a fucking idiot wanting people to see it and give me recognition for owning it, I store it unless using it. Of course any photos showing what I own are going to be "staged". Why would that be "insufferable" to you outside of reasons related to flat-out jealousy? I'm actually expecting an actual explanation but I know your cowardly ass is going to high-tail it out of here without explaining or backing up the utter idiocy you're bitching about, stupid.

The original Miyoo Mini was a meme device on Tiktok during the prime of people advertising these handhelds for clout/revenue. Miyoo couldn't keep up with demand so they designed the Miyoo Mini +, and now all the massive faggots who "didn't get theirs" are now buying the Mini + wanting that dopamine hit from owning the Mini. That's literally all it is. People who actually care about performance will go for the RG35XX which just features more for actually gaming and its screen won't pop out if it falls/gets dropped.

Very specific size and resolution. The IPS screens in $20 handhelds are far more commonly mass produced in modern times, an IPS screen in the proper shape of a GBA screen is not and even then often require you to modify your GBA's case to make the screen fit.

People buying $20 handhelds are likely to be poorfags who care about every penny, thus companies catering to them have to accept slimmer margins. People who know about and buy GBA IPS screens are likely to be avid game system collectors who don't care how much money they sink into their hobby and are willing to be milked dry.

The DSlite hinge issue was literally as common as the og Xbox power cable failure issue was, the original design for the DSlite had a straight up design flaw and no amount of "taking good care of your products" would save it from eventually getting the infamous hairline crack. Nintendo officially came out and made a statement about the issue but later while being interviewed by IGN admitted that they found most customers with cracked hinges just went out and bout a second DSlite rather than using their free services to repair/replace the units.

Okay I gotta straight up say, this is actually pretty fucking phenomenal for a $20 device. It feels like the physical hardware parts of it alone are worth $40 even with the laggy JAVA-styled UI. It's very simple, you can't swap the emulation cores that come with it (so far), even GBA games are running well on it. It really is a steal for only $20 and the only reason more people don't already own it is because they're probably in disbelief in how good it is for what it is. I feel anyone who has any interest into these retro emulation devices from China owe it to themselves to buy one of the these at least.
Even the stiff shoulder buttons aren't an issue when actually playing. The only, ONLY criticism I have with the device is the speaker quality is actually kind of shit, like the speaker is actually pretty fucking bad. But everything else is top quality even for a $100 device.

>> No.10043887

>>10043878
Ya, just wanted to add; The speaker is really, really bad. It isn't stereo, it's mono, one of the two speaker holes on the back are empty and fake. The audio quality is not good... it plays video game music and sound effects but it comes out all crackly as fuck and vaguely vibrates the whole system on louder volumes. But I do adore that it uses a quality volume wheel instead of buttons/rockers, you feel you have full control on exactly how loud it is and lower volumes doesn't have the crackling/vibrating issue. Other than than, fucking adore this thing and can't recommend it enough to anyone interested in these things.

T618 and Linux are mutually exclusive because those Unisoc chipsets don't have mainline kernel support while Rockchip and Snapdragon ones do. It's not that manufacturers are not willing to put Linux on there, it's that they can't without extensive development work that they can't afford.

I remember around 10 years ago (i dunno if it's different now) but for custom Android ROMs you basically had to have a Snapdragon chip since MediaTek and other chip makers weren't releasing *something* that was important to making a ROM that will run on those chips.

>> No.10044167

>>10044152
It's not a block, it's literally just corporate unwillingness to be that open because of fear about "muh IP" and etc. without NDAs. For Snapdragon and etc, they've done enough where you can actually get a chip barebones working on a Linux system straight out of the box, minus stuff like cameras and etc. If you need more, then you sign the NDA for that, but what is open source is enough to not block people's work and is relatively unimportant. Most Chinese chip companies don't even do that (although there are ones that do like Zhaoxin and Loongson) and in fact use Linux code with their modifications without actually following the open source licenses. It took a lot of effort to get Rockchip, MediaTek and Allwinner to the table for getting their stuff upstreamed into Linux while placating their fears about IP and clear out the violations they had which is why their chips now more or less work in Linux without much pain and why Jelos and other Linux distributions more or less can exist. Unisoc and HiSilicon are examples of chipmakers that still aren't there and haven't done this.

take this with a grain of salt, but retroid is claiming the rp4 isn’t coming any time soon

i think the rp3+ is amazing but i kinda wish they already had the next one ready just to make people seethe again

Uncle Gabe, please! For the love of God! Just put the Steam Deck components into a clamshell that's the size of GPD WIn 2 and call it Steam Deck Mini or smth! Everyone already plays with their Steam Deck at 7-10W TDP to conserve battery life and the cooling system in GPD Win 2 was enough to handle that. It was even enough to house a 40Wh battery. There is no reason for the Steam Deck to be this big, you can remove the physical keyboard present in GPD Win 2 to fit touchpads instead! I don't even mind if it's slightly more expensive than the big version! JUST. MAKE. IT. SMALLER! You are the only person that can save handheld gaming!

Final impressions; Genesis games run flawlessly, most SNES games run flawlessly unless they have a special chip (Yoshi's Island and Stunt FX have severe framerate issues). Gameboy games are great on it, but GBA games run like shit. The speaker is the device's main flaw, but I adore how precise the volume wheel is. I decided to replay Super Mario RPG at the moment with it. Definitely worth the $20.

Not him but I also really like the RetroMini, it's perfect for both GBA and original Game Boy games (can be played by converting the roms using Goomba) as well as some Genesis and SNES, though they will be a bit squished due to the GBA aspect ratio it has. It basically became a Tetris and MP3 player for me and helped me get through the pandemic. Just throw on some music and go for a walk, get home and play a little bit of DKC2 or Harvest Moon GB. Fun times. Only thing is I got mine for $30 in 2019, I'm seeing it now for $40 but for that price you can maybe get a better handheld these days like PowKiddy's V2 or something, but it won't be as portable for MP3's

I don't know what else there is I can add. I'm playing Sonic CD and Sonic Adventure DX on the Steam Deck and I'm having fun. SADX may be "buggier" than the DC original, I wouldn't know since I didn't make it that far, but I'm still having a ton of fun with the Steam port on Sonic's storyline, and its fun revisiting zones to see how the extra objectives change things up. The only major downside against this version I can see is that they removed the unlockable games, but I can probably emulate them just as well.

actually i’ll give anbernig the benefit of the doubt, they completely bit the miyoo mini after they saw it selling, so maybe they’ll bite the popular 3rd party 3d-printed triggers that people like off eyay

$3.50 with free shipping... How the hell do they achieve those kinds of prices? How can it be economically viable to sell a complete system for this cheap? The raw materials used to produce this are probably worth more. Yeah, I know it's just a famiclone with lowest quality components and with economics of scale on their side, but man... a box of eggs is more expensive in my country.

I have no trouble believing that, but how much do those $3.50 ones have to cost to make for that to be feasible? $2? And when you think about it, those are pretty similar devices except for the chip inside. So why does the other cost 4 times less to make?

you can, you just need to be willing to do a little research.

How many games are people keeping on their devices? It seems like so many people hold however many thousands they can fit in and no one is selective.

Probably yes, if you are fine with an Android-only device. RP3+ is severely overpriced on sites like AliExpress, at least when it comes to us EU customers who are forced to pay VAT upfront. Base RP3 is almost two times cheaper in practice. Even though it's supposed to retail at $120 and RP3+ at $150, the difference is much more than $30 in practice. I suppose it's cheaper if you get it directly from the Retroid website, but then you also have to pay for shipping and the customer service is probably worse than on Ali, not to mention shipping times are longer. RP3+ is not THAT much better than RP3. Sure, it can play some PS2 and Gamecube games, but if you are targeting those devices I'd recommend something even more powerful like AYN Odin Lite because there is always a chance that your favorite game will not be playable at full speed. There is a lot of shill video comparisons between it and the Odin, those feature cherrypicked games to make it seem like RP3+ is much better than it is in reality. Look out for Timesplitters 2 in particular, showcasing that game is a sure sign of a shill video. The fact of the matter is that if the highest system you want to emulate is N64, you will be fine with either RP3 or RP3+. RP3 also has different buttons from the RP3+, the feel is more similar to the D-pad, which makes it feel more consistent. The one thing on RP3+ that is vastly superior in my opinion is color availability, particularly the Blue and Purple transparent variants. RP3 doesn't have any transparent variants and every color except for the white and black looks bad in my opinion.

With all due respect to RGC, literally no one has had the issues he has had with the d-pad. The part with the koopa shell in particular scared the fuck out of me, but thankfully it turned out to not be an issue on my unit. Either he got a lemon or was just being retarded.

As someone who has both the RP3+ and the X28 and absolutely loves both, I actually prefer the one on the X28. While I do still love the RP3+'s d-pad and especially love that it's based on the Vita's d-pad, it's actually a little too hard to hit diagonals when I want, and the pivot from center is almost non-existent (have to go pretty far down in any direction from center to get an input to actuate). Those are two shortcomings not present on real Vita d-pads fwiw. The shortcomings certainly aren't fatal though, It's still a great d-pad ultimately.

I literally have an X28 and it's nowhere near as bad as in his video. His d-pad just had really bad QA. And even so, you also have to factor in reviewers have their own preferences so you can't just trust 100% when they say something feels bad, maybe they just prefer a different type of feel.

Even if you happen to have won the D-pad lottery with your X28, that doesn't change the fact that a lot of people had a lot of trouble with it.

You play lottery with almost every Chinese handheld, even the RP3+ like when some early units were shipping with the speakers inversed.

That's the thing though, a lot of people HAVEN'T had trouble with it. Other reviewers like Retro Tech Dad, Shem, other fags like jdewitz who has connections to PK but also shit on them constantly, etc has tried to duplicate the issue after the RGC review and straight up said they only get the diagonals when they explicitly try to. The people getting false diagonals are clearly in the minority, and more importantly, literally NO ONE has had it to the degree of RGC where it's a catastrophic failure.

And I say more importantly because, lets be honest, the popularity of Anbernic products and their d-pads with false diagonal issues proves that most people don't mind it much. I literally get zero on mine unlike some others, but if I had to choose between the occasional false diagonal (which I sometimes got on my RG505 and still get sometimes on my RK2023) or the RP3+ pad where's it's overly difficult to hit diagonals when I want, I'd choose the former.

RG35XX is a $50 device, X28 costs $150. I don't think either of those are good devices, RG35XX gets utterly mogged by Miyoo Mini+ and X28 gets mogged by RP3+, I wouldn't buy either. But one costs three times more than the other, so expectations will naturally be set higher.

If you don't like it, you should IMO go up a price tier and get Retroid Pocket 3 or even Retroid Pocket 3+. The second one has a metal shell option available if you consider that more premium than plastic. If you want something even bigger, go for AYN Odin Lite. Anything more expensive than that is a huge overkill for PS1. Even Odin Lite is desu, but it's hard to get anything slower with the same screen size and no glaring issues.

Overall I fucking love that this thing is only $20 and have put down my PS4, PC, and Switch titles to spend more time replaying GameBoy, SNES, and Genesis titles on this thing while on the couch/in bed.

Final verdict;
The good:
>It's fucking $20
>Extremely light but rock solid
>One of the most comfortable handhelds I have ever held in my life, and I've owned dozens
>Analog stick is silly but useful for some players for arcade styled games/racing games
>Everything is just so comfortably within reach, none of my fingers ever strain or need to rest against anything uncomfortable, using three different grips, all three feel natural and comfortable
>Best volume wheel I've used on a device, I can make it as whisper quiet or screaming loud as I want and won't bump the volume accidentally
>Wonderful for most GameBoy, GameBoy Color, SNES, NES, and Genesis games
>Simple and straight forward UI
>Fits in your pocket

The bad:
>The YB/XA buttons being so spaced apart makes it annoying to do things, such as holding B to run and pressing A to jump, or holding B to make text scroll faster while tapping A to continue the text
>Only actually has one speaker, isn't that good quality but is easily replaced with a better quality one if you can do basic hardware mods, the second "speaker" on the back is just cosmetic, like the speaker lines on many Anbernic Gameboy clones
>L and R buttons are a little stiff
>There's no screen brightness control, at all, so you're stuck with the brightness it comes at
>The back of it near the bottom gets warm due to the microSD card reader slot doing its best to run games off the microSD card even though the battery area is as cool as a cucumber
>The plastic has a lot of light bleed around its seams, button holes, and thinner areas by the screen if that bothers you
>GBA has slow down in many titles but titles aren't consistent, maybe it's just emu core
>Any SNES games that had a special chip on the cartridge like Yoshi's Island and Stunt FX run at 5 fps

I really hate it when controllers/handhelds have a giant circle gauged out of them to lower the analog sticks but still allow them room to move. Also what the fuck are those start, select, share, and menu button placements? It's like they just took a Switch "Pro" controller and just shoved everything to the left or right to make room for the screen, then swapped the d-pad and left stick placement. The face buttons are too small and the screen's bezel made them horribly create this fat ledge at the top of the device instead of being a smooth, flat surface like the SNES controller actually is, or how the SF2000 is. Not to mention this is a fucking $140 device we're comparing to a $20 one, why would I spend $240 to own more than of a device I don't want just because I'm willing to spend $40 to own two of a device I love?

It comes with a 16GB microSD card with 6000 ROMs on it, which you can manually add more ROMs to. It needs the microSD card to turn on, as its OS is in the microSD card's files. I haven't tried adding anything myself because it already has every game I can think of already on it. I'm not familiar with if it can easily have different emulator cores/CFW put onto it but it should be stupid easy if you can since everything loads off the microSD card.
You gotta pop the microSD card out and use a USB reader to transfer files, as the USB-C port is exclusively for charging, but every model regardless of the store or what extras you get included will have the 16 gig microSD card, USB-C charging cable, and an AV out cable for plug'n'play shit (most systems use mini-HDMI, so this using AV out is the most cheap/archaic feature about the thing).

For both the RP3+ and X28, you're looking at 3.5 hours if you're maxing out on PS2 with max brightness and wifi on. they also both get around 10.5 hours running something on the lower end like Yoshi's Island, which is actually one of the most demanding SNES games to run because of the FX chip. I feel pretty confident in saying you could likely get 12 - 13 hours for something like average Megadrive if you turned the wifi off and brightness around 30%. Real world, I average 6 - 10 hours depending on what I'm playing. The X28 has a slightly larger battery, but also has a larger screen that realistically draws more power, so end result evens out.

Here's the same test sans-PS2 on the RP3+ btw. As you can see they're basically identical. The one that really pulls ahead of this already great battery life is actually the RG405m. gets something retarded like 18 hours for this test iirc.

I can't get Grimace's Birthday to run on the SF2000, it uses ".zgb" files for ROMs and the best I can do is find a converter for ".gbz" files, which the SF2000 doesn't recognize.

A part of me really wants to know what black magic Valve performed with the Steam Deck to where it’s more efficient at lower watts. I wonder if it’s down to either SteamOS or that custom APU, because I’m running Retroarch at 5 watts playing Earthbound Zero just fine.

Speaking of which, the game is fine, just got Lloyd in the party. It’s cute and charming in its own way but the plot feels a bit barebones and it’s the little things that carry it like the settings and dialogue more than anything else. Also the encounter rate can be a bit silly, sometimes you only take one step and it triggers a new encounter after the last one, but some items like the Big Bag make the game super forgiving by the standards of NES games and you get tons of XP/cash due to the encounter rates, so eh.

This is wrong btw, it depends on what needs to be achieved, if you try to perform strenuous work (like rendering 3D graphics) then running at a low power is going to take more time and consume more energy in the long run than if you just utilise full wattage for a microsecond to achieve the same task.

Low wattage is only more power efficient for tasks where high wattage is overkill, hence why it's common for CPUs now to have a mixture of low and high power cores, but not solely low power cores.

Sad thing is that back on the old internet, the internet was a great resource for learning information from people who really knew their shit on forums and message boards, but at some point that changed to the internet being a great resource for finding people who claim to know answers but refuse to give them. Is it because they're scared of being corrected if they divulge their understanding of a topic? Do the failed normies who roam the imageboards of today want to be the cool kid with the secret information? Perhaps the sharing of information just isn't important to people these days because one-up-manship is just too damn fun for people who's mommas didn't love them enough?

I don't understand why absolute idiots keep making these top-wide handhelds that are impossible to comfortably hold. I realize they're trying to make it naturally fit the curve of your palms when you hold something in both hands, but it makes me have to moreso cup the underside of these things than their sides, making them feel heavier to hold due to my wrists having to twist more than they naturally would.

Ever try a phone clip for a controller before? They are indeed top heavy, but their adjustable hinges are fucking thicc and could probably withstand a person jumping on them.

They exist, they're just severely flawed just for the sake of trying to look unique or look like a full controller rather than just fucking making one that's functional. This is one of the closest so far, but "closing it" requires you to lift and lock the hinge to be an inch higher so the phone can "close" over the analog sticks, it's not pocketable at all with its height and shape, making the option to fold it so fucking useless.

It was a strike while the iron's hot scenario and I spent sixteen straight hours working on the prototype one night to get it down and shown, which is what got over two hundred people in the moment excited to just hear how it turned out. People were in demand for a new Anbernic d-pad at the time and they loved my design the most, willing to wait to get it rather than buying the Etsy ones people were currently making. And then my brother took eight days to tell me he didn't get around to doing it yet and one Etsy seller saw how impatient people were becoming. If I didn't make and share the design in that moment, the moment would have been missed entirely and no one would have gotten any iteration of the d-pad. It all came down to my brother being a useless piece of shit after asking me to rely on him.

The Plus has better build quality than the regular Miyoo Mini. Maybe just don't drop it like a retarded child and treat the stuff you paid for with care? I never dropped any electronics because I pay for them out of my own pocket and I don't want to damage them. I also don't use screen protectors because they get scratched easier than actual screens and I make sure to keep any hard and sharp objects away from them instead. A friend of mine once slid his phone over a metail rail to show that the screen is scratch-proof, if you are that kind of guy then no device will be retard-proof enough for you.

Except for the screen. The +'s screen kills it for me, which is crazy because it's identical to the RG35XX's screen. It really comes down to shit design and the cheapest adhesive Miyoo could afford. It's not even held in by the device's fucking frame, it's just sitting there with glue.

There is no "best handheld for each price point" because there's so much variety when it comes to personal preference. What systems do you personally want to play, and how well? What form factor do you want? Is battery life important to you? Do you prefer the d-pad on top or bottom? Do you want your OS to be Linux, Android, Windows, or lol Java based?
The doc has a filter for a reason. Use the filter feature to narrow things down to what you are personally looking for. I would say the price of the device should be the last thing you're focused on and to focus on getting a device that will play the games you want how you want first.

Eh, I dunno if you asked him to do it and then left him for 8 days, but if that was the case, you gotta be on people's case when there's a good idea like this that someone else was likely to capitalise on if they can. Like, sure your brother didn't do it, but any successful entrepreneur would say you'd need to be not even sleeping until production is underway and it's likely you'd be taking the lion's share of that $8K right? You can't expect your brother to be as motivated for getting this produced and shipped as you're going to be, so you gotta be pushy tbqh and if he won't do it when you need him to, you gotta seek out alternative suppliers.

Cat knocked my RG35XX off of a shelf I set it on while stepping outside to grab the mail, landed directly on the top left corner. I was terrified that the screen was going to be absolutely fucked.
Outside of a small white stress dent to the corner plastic, there isn't a single issue with it. The small white dent is giving me OCD but the device is as sturdy as the GameBoy Color. Accidents sometimes happen, and if a device is meant to be portable then it shouldn't be as fragile as the Miyoo Mini and Mini Plus.

That's pretty impressive considering just how little space there is between the edge of the case and the edge of the screen, there's not much to absorb the shock without shattering the plastic or going straight through to the screen. OG Gameboys were so hardy because there was just so much plastic between the screen and the edge of the case.

I'd say with the Miyoo Mini (and plus) that yeah if you want to have a very small case with extremely small bezels around the screen and basically no case visible around the screen, if you drop it, what's absorbing the shock?

Budgetfag here; I’m trying to decide between the Powkiddy V90 and the Anbernic RG300x. I’m mostly interested in playing Megaman BN, Pokemon ROMhacks, and FFVI. A $20 price bump is nothing to me, but as a GBA kid, I really like the clamshell design of the V90. But the 300x has a higher res screen, better SNES emulation, and it also does PS1 in case I get an itch for Policenauts or Soul Blade. So yeah, I’m really torn on this decision.

>> No.10052396

>>10042403
So I'm interested in getting one of these, but I have a few concerns. Probably the biggest one being that they come out so frequently that I expect to feel buyer's remorse from buying one and then immediately having it being outclasses for a similar price. That said, I don't necessarily want something big and overly expensive like a Steam Deck and what not.

Looking for:
- Preferably horizontal design (clamshell or not doesn't really matter)
- Has more color options than just black/white/gray if possible
- Stacked shoulder buttons
- Dpad at the top left
- Medium-ish size, so not too small for boomer eyes, but not awkwardly huge

I don't remember 100% the specs/stats, but I think a Retroid Pocket 3 might match this? There are so many of these that I don't know what does what nowadays, or if some could work but just need custom firmware or something else.

Also, unrelated, but that Data Frog SF2000 is on sale for $9.60 at the moment. Maybe needs a custom OS to run a bit better, but it sounds a lot better than most similarly priced cheap handhelds otherwise?

Apologies. The captcha wasn't loading and I thought I copy and pasted all of my text when I refreshed the page, but I guess not.

Specifically though I would like to play up to 3DS/PS2. Probably more so 3DS over PS2, if that matters.

If it helps, I primarily play RPGs and platformers, so hopefully nothing in those categories that would be TOO hard on the system.

>> No.10052685

>>10052524
If you don't want to go the Steam Deck route then the smallest and cheapest you can realistically get away with is the Odin Lite. It DEFINITELY won't play everything PS2 and 3DS, but it's the best you'll get without spending Deck money. Honestly, your best option is probably biting the bullet a bit on cost and ordering a Ayn Neo Air Pocket when they go on sale this month. It's roughly the size of the Odin so definitely smaller than the Deck, but will probably be close to the cost of a 64gb around $300 or so. It'll probably play 98 - 99% of PS2 at fullspeed.

Why do so few handhelds come in clamshell form factor? There’s the cheapest of chinkshit with the Powkiddy V90, and if you want something that can actually play SNES, your next step up is the Retroid Pocket Flip at $180. Why? Why can’t I have something like the Miyoo Mini+, but modelled after the GBA SP instead of the original one? It’s such a good form factor for screen protection and portability, why the fuck does no one copy it?
