SoC Comparison https://versus.com/en/mobile-chipset

>Where to buy
Aliexpress, gogamegeek, litnxt, keepretro, mechdiy, Anbernic/retroid store

>What to know about brands
Retroid: Well built, powerful, but expensive (100$+)
Anbernic: Balance between price, power and build quality. Just avoid the RG Nano
Powkiddy: Cheap, low quality builds, interesting shapes (square, clamshell, big screen)
Miyoo: One hit wonder
Game Console: Copycat popular products with lower prices, better specs, but weaker build qualities
TrimUI: Good build quality, shitty software with no good CFW alternatives

>How do I get games
Google: tiny best set

>What do I buy
Post your preferences: Money (20$ - 200$), Shape (horizontal, vertical, clamshell, square), Pocketable or not, OS (Linux, Android, Both), Systems (Pre PSX is 8, 16, and 32-bit eras, PSX with extras, Dreamcast and N64, PSP and DS, PS2 and GC/Wii capable)

>Recommended devices
Prices depend on when and where you buy.
- Retroid Pocket 4 (200$, horizontal, 4.7" 16:9 Screen, up to PS2/GC, android)
- Retroid Pocket 2S (100$, horizontal, 3.5" 4:3 Screen, can play some PS2/GC, android, pocketable)
- Powkiddy RGB30 (90$, horizontal, 4" 1:1 Screen, PSX with extras, linux, pocketable)
- Trimui Smart Pro (60$, horizontal, 5" 16:9 Screen, PSX with extras, linux)
- Anbernic RG 35XX Plus (60$, 3.5" 4:3 Screen, PSX with extras, linux, pocketable)
- Miyoo mini plus (60$, 3.5" 4:3 Screen, PSX with extras, linux, pocketable)
- R36S (40$, vertical, 3.5" 4:3 Screen, up to PSX with extras, linux, pocketable)

>Things I need to know
- Handhelds come with low quality SD cards. Back them up on your computer, throw them away, and buy new ones.
- It takes some tinkering, specially linux devices.
- Overall quality of these products is very cheap.
- Reviewers get free handhelds, caveat emptor.

Front-facing speakers and bottom 3.5mm jack, smaller/more inset joysticks, less clicky shoulders (also better quality plastic for the shoulders). And no random buzz/click from the speakers whenever I flip from OS into a game and vice versa, but that might be software. Touch screen would've also been nice for DS but whatever.
Personally I like the thing for how much I paid for it and what I want to do with it. Going by dimensions, Trimui Smart Pro doesn't fit nicely in my pocket as much as this thing does, I'm also tempted to pick up a RG28XX eventually so I'm biased (positively) toward this thing for now.

[Anonymous No.10899975]

>>10899969
They're usable, pretty sub-par though.
I bought some gulikit sticks that came in a few days ago that I might install.
Tested cardinal snapping with Mario 64 since it's my testing game for 3D movement, I generally know when something's wrong.
They're not snapping for me, through I saw on the discord it's a case by case basis.

Switch or steam deck? There's games I like for both and both can emulate the fuck out of retro consoles right?
....price point of switch is nice but future proofing on deck is very vibe...actually leaning towards switch lite for more stealth gaming less looking like a goober at work...

If it's just for the form factor, the RG Nano is probably the closest you can find. Aside from that there's the FC188 (LDK Game Famiclone), the K10 (thin Famiclone), and the DLGPlays Brick Game handheld which are all slightly chomkier but the FC188/LDK Game comes the closest.

No. The Switch CPU is actually very, very weak and you also need to hardmod. Switch relies on mulithreading, limited boosting, and the power of the GPU to carry it. It is terrible for emulation.

Deck is thicc but you can't beat the accessibility of SteamOS/Linux and x86 support.

Depends on your home network. It's only 2.4GHz so if you're in a crowded network environment like mine surrounded by brick walls you may need to use a wifi adapter in the room or nearby.
I usually stream at 720p/6mb and it's fine, looks good at 0.1 BPP for 60 fps and 0.2BPP for 30.
Streamed a few things so far, was streaming bluestacks w/ Nier rein, streamed FFXI, streamed replicant, disgaea 4, saga emerald beyond, FFXII and SMT III so far.

There's also a build of portmaster now too.

Stock is alright now, they're right about the OP needing to be updated nothing like it was at launch, 1.0.3 & 4 are good.
.4 includes Vulkan support, bluetooth audio support and streaming over moonlight. The file browser's still kinda shit (no hold to scroll, have to spam the R button) and there's no syncthing/scraper.

Here's the thing that always fucked with me in terms of the "it plays real carts" selling point.

If you're the kinda guy who already has a bunch of authentic carts on standby and cares about that kind of authentic experience, you almost certainly already have something that plays them, in a far more authentic way than an Analogue ever could. So why get it?

sorry for the delay anon but got to run a little mk7 before it got too late

top is with nothing configured just jumped into mushroom cup 150cc and it ran fine, those settings were: opengl, 1x internal res, asynchronous shader comp off

bottom was me going into settings and switching to vulcan, 2x internal res, and asynchronous shader comp on

both instances ran full frames besides a frame loss or two i assume for caching or buffering when the lap first starts during actual gameplay

the second settings i did ran well enough that i don't really have any reason to believe it'd be any different with fe:awakening unless there's something unique about it that it's notoriously hard to emulate or some shit (i don't know what those titles are for 3ds, the "yoshi's island/snes" equivalents)

It runs Alliance Alive almost perfectly except more often than not sound is fucked in cutscenes where text moves automatically, it stopped giving me visual in Super Mario 3D Land despite it playing fine and it's still a black screen even when I closed and reopened, SASRT plays in slowmo even in 1x res, Sticker Star has some glitchy overlay graphic, MK7 plays full speed but has occasional stutters; I would call 3DS "functional" on RP4P, the way some GC and PS2 were on 405M. I have better luck with Wii games, like MKWii which runs great. Some of it is quirks of the emulator but overall if I were you I wouldn't get it for 3DS unless you're just in it for lower end stuff like Shovel Knight and Inti sidescrollers (which play great in Yuzu by the way).

real hardware (and FPGA if without bugs) is for edge cases and development... if your game code expects every hardware and timing quirk
the other thing is input latency and a RK3326 is enough to run preemptive frames on the systems it already runs well

Shipping costs also vary by distance, which is what I'm referring to. That's why I said "based on my location" at the end there. Why would I want $15 tacked onto the price if shipping from the warehouse to me would only cost $5 or $10? A shipping price that's calculated at the end of the other based on your address and total items will always be better than an inflated flat fee stuck onto every individual item.

It's weird to describe. It's one of those d-pads you can press down in the middle, yet paradoxically it helps me pull diagonals like nothing else. A tad sharp on the edges, not egregious but people who replace it with the 353M's tend to note it's easier on their fingers.

That's not the point. The reason it's shitty for a company to inflate the price and claim "free shipping" is that you end up getting overcharged on shipping and the amount you get overcharged increases with every item you add to your order. It's always better for shipping to be calculated at checkout and charged honestly based on the actual cost of shipping to your location.

I got both, the Vita's beautiful and has a lot of software available (incl android ports) but emu is limited.
Vita still has the entire vita library and does pretty good PSX/PSP, so if you're happy with yours or have an OLED model the value may be less worth it,
TrimUI does PSP pretty well too tho, better moonlight client and less of a pain if you use multiple devices to get saves from, you get portmaster too. Benefits for the TSP are also fast-ish charging, Vita depending on your battery may have you charging then switching off to full charge depending on battery health.
However the TSP is also selling for a very nice price, could be good if you want a banger/beater to take around with you.

Nah, it's no different than using a CD/DVD binder in the old days for games desu.
I get it, I used to archive all my stuff and do backups of shows and stuff but filesizes exploded, didn't have capacity for a BD burner and I hate external BD drives.
To put it in context, back in the 5th and 6th gen, every good pirate had a good binder or spindle. Normalfags who got rid of boxes, cases and manuals used em too.
Printing your own little labels isn't autism my man, it's just lightscribe for the modern man in an age where there are no lightscribe SD card slots.

Shitting on backups is also kiddy peak norfmalfag behaviour. One of my fav King Crimson performances is their Munich 1982 gig and their Waiting Man performance is phenomenal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlP8B0fVF5Y.. Here it is on youtube, but I had myself a nice DVD backup of the bootleg show and had access to the direct audio too. I experienced HDD failure and it was gone, except it wasn't. It was right there in my binder of KC bootlegs.
We now live in an age where DGM release fantastic concerts like this and do giant boxsets with the entire tour including even recordings that cutout and everything's online but finding & sharing this stuff back in 2004? Man. Nah.

[Anonymous No.10907183]

Got my rg28xx in the mail yesterday, decided to get one on a whim because it reminded me of emulation consoles from about 15 years ago that I enjoyed a lot.

Been playing it for a few hours, pretty impressed with the performance overall, plays some dreamcast stuff, pretty overkill because I will probably just use it for GBC and GBA, bit of SNES AND Mega Drive.

Some cons though:
>let's you add filters to RetroArch, but performance suffers badly if you do
>speaker is shite, crackles during transitions in and out of games
>even my slender girl hands cramp up using it for longer than 45 mins
>L and R placement is absolutely awful, needing to be pressed by the middle section of your fingers
Though you can just remap L2 and R2 to be L and R. Without analogues, you likely won't be doing much that calls for both sets.

It does what I wanted for about what I wanted to spend though, so pretty impressed overall.
