You got a glow one already? I'm pretty much on the same page as you with my Pocket — I should have sold it when they were worth more than retail. I pretty much only keep it around for Game Boy at this point. I tried some chinese thing a while back and it didn't do it for me, software was just too jank. A Retroid with Android seems to be the move, but maybe I'd hate that too.

[Anonymous No.10225724]

>>10225712
Yeah, got my glowie one yesterday. Would have arrived on Tuesday if UPS weren't slackers. I'd suggest getting a Miyoo Mini Plus and installing OnionOS on it. It's cheap and it gets the job done, better than this Pocket does. I think if I had a big selection of Game Boy carts I might be happier, but trying to get around its intended purpose to have it run ROMs leads to an experience that just isn't good.

The Miyoo Mini Plus isn't that tiny, the regular Mini is. I don't have a Retroid myself. Also, my general rule is to avoid Android devices, I prefer the Linux chinkhelds. The other I would recommend is the RG353M.

>Let me guess, you need more?
In the end, I did end up needing more. I got an RG35XX earlier this year and most games I've thrown at it have worked flawlessly, but now I'm hitting the limit of what you can do with a screen that small, with some games I want to play using an 8px high font that hurts my eyes when I try reading it on the small screen. Where should I go from here? I have the following three options:

>buy the mini HDMI cable for the RG35XX since it didn't come with one and hope for the best (might not work since I'm running Garlic OS on it)
>buy an SNES Classic for too much money and mod it
>buy some Chinese version of the above for a normal amount of money
>go back to emulating on my PC

It's probably a question that's out of scope for this general, but I'm not sure where else to ask

I went 8bitdo with the dual analog sticks, works great as long as the stupid tablet or phone remembers it (it never does, always have to "forget" and then search for it again). Im gonna have to lug a fucking tablet with me along with the v90 I bought to replace it, which ok, guess that opens me up to more games compatibility but then why bother with the v90 if Im stuck bringing the tablet...starfox 2 and ill be happy, missing out on it, v90 turns into my work device or getting high on the couch inbetween events on the weekend. Def not the end of the world, but if the tablet can do 300% gba and starfox 2 and everything else bringing the V90 is like waiting at the DMV, doctors, checkout line, work, high on the couch while everyone's phoning. Pirates gold edition Genesis is pretty comfy to play though on the V90 so im finding some cozy longplays to get into.

Good problem to have overall. Every once in a while I remember all the games I have, all the hobbies Ive got just waiting to be done Im ready for this super-winter 2023/24, just gonna deliver groceries to my house on days off and watch the city shut down from snow.

If anyone wants examples of games played on the RP2S, I wouldn't mind as I'm basically guinea pigging with mine so I can help a friend with theirs anyway. Ideally it should be something that you know is available on CDR for convenience. Videos will probably be from phone camera and I won't be able to post them until tonight or tomorrow but it's probably better than nothing. People here have helped me so it'd be nice to help out in return, if needed. I can also demo RK2023 and RG405M if people want but those have been showcased a lot already.

I got my Pocket 2S yesterday, time for a mini-review now that I've spent some time with it. I purchased the transparent green version on 25th July right after it became available. It was probably a good decision because the exchange rate of my local currency to dollar dipped around that time. I probably would have to pay more if I wanted to order it now and it wouldn't come with a free screen protector. There were obviously some shipping delays, but after Retroid finally shipped it, it took only 8 days to get to me (even though I chose the 4PX shipping option that's supposed to be "slower").

Looks-wise, it's not terrible, though I would definitely get the transparent black model instead of transparent green if I could choose again. The render looked so much better than what we got in the end. The shade of green is wrong, it was supposed to be this lush tropical green and not spearmint. The rainbow-colored buttons are also a disappointment, for two reasons. The green button is too close to the shell in color and the "B" on the yellow button is actually darker than the button itself, which irks me.

Setup took some time and I pretty much gave up halfway through and decided that I will launch emulators manually instead of using a frontend. The performance is okay. Most PS2 games will not run at full speed with safe settings, but the one I really wanted to play was Rayman 3 Hoodlum Havoc, which runs pretty well. There are still slowdowns, but they're quite rare and the game is completely playable. I used the NTSC version, there should be even less slowdowns on PAL but I think I prefer 60FPS most of the time. I haven't really tested other systems thoroughly (too little time), but I believe that anything up to 5th gen and Dreamcast should play perfect outside of some weird edge cases.

[Anonymous No.10228126]

>>10228123
As for the controller, it's fine. The analog sticks are very small, even smaller than the usual "Switch-style" sticks used in those types of handhelds. I don't like that they're concave, imo that makes them harder to grip. For now there aren't any problems, but I'm afraid that might change when grease from daily play sessions builds up. But they also use Hall Effect, which is pretty much unobtainable at this price point from anyone other than Retroid. I haven't used the D-pad much, but from what I've tested it appears that it might be a little too difficult to press diagonals. It's not a deal breaker, but it feels very similar to the D-pad on DS Classic/Phat or 2DS XL and those aren't very good at diagonals either. The face buttons are quite light to press, but no complaints there. I know that they use a different type of switch from the D-pad, so I was afraid that they would feel mushy by comparison, but now I can safely say that they complement it quite well. Now, shoulder buttons: L1 and R1 are hinged and some people before in this thread said that you can't press them anywhere. That's not the case. Yes, they require a bit more force to press closer to the display, but it's not noticeable unless you look for it. And presses register just fine no matter where you press them. The L2 and R2 are analog, which is cool I guess but I didn't have time to test any games that benefit from it so that's all I can say.

One other thing that irks me: I swear I've seen a prototype of RP2S here and it had a much bigger heatsink than what we got in the end. My unit really heated up once I started playing Rayman 3 on it for the first time, but curiously it doesn't do that any more, at least not to that extent. Makes me believe that there was something going on in the background after I connected it to WiFi for the first time, some sort of system update or telemetry or some other bullshit like that. But nevertheless, it's a shame that the heatsink is so puny even though the shell clearly has space for a more robust one. At least the chip is not right below the battery like on the RP353PS.

So in the end, I'm pleased with it for the price I paid for it. There are no major deal breakers, only small flaws. You should get it if you're on the fence about it, just stay away from the transparent green model.

Other RP2S owner here, yeah it heats up the most and the fastest with PS2 and Wii. Gamecube and Saturn in 2nd place, then Dreamcast and PS1 (upscaled/shadered) in third for how much it will heat up and how fast. I expected as much because it's what I'm used to with these devices, but it can be annoying if you wanted to play for long periods. Also I don't know if it will do it with RP2S, but on RG405M sometimes switching tabs or going into sleep mode will blank the screen in RetroArch, especially with Saturn.

Yet another 2Sfag here, the sticks are pretty good for a device of this size and price. They're not amazing or anything but I like them a lot better than the ones that were on the 3+. My only gripe is that they aren't recessed enough, the first time I tried the pocketability test, one of the caps got stuck on the pocket and came off.

Powkiddy works in mysterious ways. Nice to hear on the buttons, and it would make perfect sense if the new screen and android build were from the X28.

Seriously, who makes this shit, and are they trash or not? why doesn't anyone in here actually seem to know if the hardwares are good quality? Doesn't anyone in this shitty thread actually play these devices? Are you just a bunch of social media trash who buy garbage and pretend to play games for (you)s? Christ I hope not, lest even /vr/ end up with a bunch of idiot posers on it. 4ch vista boards are supposed to be for ultra hardcore who fucking care about shit like this, where now feels like I'm just seeing a bunch of shitposters pretending that random china miracles are somehow worth inventing a console war over them.

Coming back to this, Kirby works almost as well as on RG405M with some very minor stutters, Klonoa works almost as well but chugged hard as soon as it got to the indoor section of vision 1 where you meet the hero and main character of the game (Balue), and I didn't bother with Sonic because it lagged at the title screen and the menu as long as having some graphical glitches there. On GC, Kirby Air Ride's track was pitch black and the background was dark so that was annoying, Custom Robo works great, Wind Waker works great, X Command Mission works great, Metroid Prime 2 lags hard, Shadow Reloaded lags a lot but is technically playable, Sonic Riders DX switches between normal speed and super laggy on a whim but is technically playable, Star Fox Assault played well, Symphonia plays well but lags during transitions and in the opening cutscene.

Are you really going to pretend Miyoo and Retroid don't also do that? Anbernic and Aya as well, though those 2 like Powkiddy are much better at fulfilling orders. It's not a sleight, it's just an observation of the reality of the industry. Also funnily enough on the RGB30 vs RK2023, the only components they actually share are the chip and the face buttons. Well, sticks too, but all these chinkhelds aside from the 2S use these same shitch sticks. Silicon is new, shell is new, screen is new, battery is new, shoulder buttons are new, d-pad is (probably) from the Max 3 rather than rk2023. Same as Miyoo, Retroid, Anbernic, Aya, etc recyling chips, screens, d-pads, sticks, face buttons, batteries, analog triggers in Retroid's case, etc between devices. Aya is even recycling shells to use across different chips like Retroid did with 3 -> 3+ or how they've modded and reused the 2 shell twice now.

May sound petty but unironically that's a massive dealbreaker for me.

A question for the people here with a Retroid 2S. Currently my daily rider device (and only dedicated emulator desu) is an Anbernic rg353v, mainly use it for 2D gaming. I pre ordered a 2S for more N64/Dreamcast compatability, and it's set to arrive any day now, and I'm wondering if I should keep my 353v as my dedicated 2D handheld, or if it's worth making the 2S my new main system.

I grabbed one of these recently when browsing about on AliExpress. I'm hardly a Handheld aficionado, so the device being cheap was the main appeal, and cheap it was. I do kind of find it charming looking, but the performance of the device leaves something to be desired. It's strangely choppy on Mega Drive and SNES, but will at time play demanding NeoGeo games relatively fine, with GBA games running well. It's weirdly inconsistent.
On the bright side, it holds all of its data on an SD card so that's free to mess with.

I was hardly planning on gaining a collection of these things, but this experience makes me want to try again. Maybe something better established without the influence of whim.

There's still plenty of reasons to get a Vita. The 1000 model had a nice OLED panel for its time, there's tons of mods for it now, and there's a good selection of PS1 and PSP games you could play on it natively. There's also grips that add L2 functionality for PS1 games IIRC.

The Powkiddy's v90 3" screen is fine to me, I could probably play on a 2.5" and not care; though the RG Nano's 1.54" is too small. No idea about a 2" screen, but that's not a common size, anyways, so it doesn't matter. I'll look into the 2s more, thanks for the suggestion.

Was wondering if there was a more genuine way of achieving a DMG and GBC look for these games in the RG353P but then thought using shaders would drain the battery way faster instead of just using overlays and the included filters.

[Anonymous No.10232446]

>>10232435
There are overlays that have the LCD grids on them. Nice alternative to shaders on weaker handhelds. Look up the ones for the Miyoo Mini since it has the same resolution as the 353p.

Having multiple handhelds is pain.
I love the looks and build quality of my Vita but the SNES and GBA emulation isn't perfect and probably never will (has a noticeable one frame lag, you'll notice it if you know some music by ear. Only on Retroarch).
The 3DS is just uncomfortable to hold and the screen sucks.
The Switch is too big and the battery drains fast.
The Anbernic devices are perfect for SNES and GBA games (and almost everything pre-Playstation) nice but the screen is the worst for PSP games.

I hate jumping among different devices

black bars for small resolution on a large screen makes sense. black bars for large resolution on a small screen is retarded. playing a PSP game on a 1:1 screen that small would be fucking horrendous, but playing a GBC game on a 2S would be a lot nicer despite the giant black bars being there too.

The buttons were horrendously bad according to everyone who had one, they would get stuck often and just felt awful. The OS looked really amateurish. And it was like they only made 50 units because it dropped with no fanfare and then the site immediately changed to SOLD OUT within 12 hours. It was just really disappointing considering Funnyplaying actually does have good quality products within their Game Boy modding lineup so you'd think they'd know exactly how to make a good Gameboy emulation handheld.

DS emulation is nice on Odin, I use the "One big screen + One small screen" layour, with the smaller touchscreen closer to my right hand if I need to press it. I'm sure it will be the same on a RP3+.

Same on Switch. With MelonDS, DS emulation is near perfect, at least all the worthwhile games can get perfect 60 fps.

Silly question, lads, but when it comes to the Android vs Linux as the OS thing, I wanted to ask some questions.

So Linux handhelds tend to just work better/have better performance, I guess? And they might actually have sleep mode?

But Android handhelds can use applications like GPS, mobile games and maybe even do phone calls (why though), but potentially have no sleep mode potential?

I kind of like the idea of getting an Android based handheld for the potential applications that exist, since so many cover useful things such as GPS, but I'm not sure if that warrants a performance decrease when I truly just want the emulators to work.

I'm still thinking about getting a RP3+, as it sounds like one of the strongest, non-Windows handhelds, but I'm also hoping that we will get a slightly stronger Orange Pi type of handheld before the end of the year.

[Anonymous No.10233269]

>>10233256
better performance isn't a given for one vs the other. some emulators do better on android, some on linux. depends on the chipset, the specific OS, and the development of each emulator.
also some handhelds can use both linux and android, like the rg353p.
android is a lot better than linux for sleep mode, linux doesn't really have a true sleep, the suspend function in onionos or garlicos saves your game and turns off the system. any linux handheld put into "sleep" will keep using battery like a hog because it's essentially still on.
