I own a Switch and play on it every day. It's never going to be a good portable system unless your definition of portable is being able to play games in your bedroom and living room with the same system. It's not meant to be any more portable than that.

Playing a work isn't portable. A portable fits in your pocket and can be used -ANYWHERE-. Changing your venue from your bedroom to your workplace lunchroom isn't portable.

The Switch is a convenient home console, very convenient. It's not a portable.

Not retro, but now that TheFLOW put out his crack for current firmware Vita's, Retroarch works amazingly well on there for nearly everything retro (with the Virtual Boy being the exception, it runs at about 25-35 FPS, and of course Yabause is just a POC right now, not playable).

I mean if you want to be picky you can take the joycons off of the Switch and it can fit in the pockets of the average pair of jeans provided you put the joycons in the other pocket.

It's bulky and impractical but dimensions-wise it's perfectly possible. It's not much thicker than a 3DS and not much larger than a large phone.

The GB Boy Colour is a hardware clone, only plays GB/C software and does not have a video out. Super Retro Trio is also a hardware clone(s). The vast, vast majority of clone consoles are hardware clones, the only real mass-market emulator based clones are the Retron 5, RetroFreak, and I guess that new Hyperkin Atari 2600 thing; FPGA consoles notwithstanding.

Got that GPD XD for 120 € and It's worth it. All SNES, GBA, GBC, N64, DS work fine, even Neo Geo, PSX and a Port of Quake 2 and others. And fucking GTA Vice City for Android <3
Haven't even tried out everything, but it's the perfect emu machine, even though the buttons and d-pad could have a little more quality, but you get used to it. In some really fast arcade games it lacks precision at the beginning, but it's habituation. Ony the PSP emu is shit (but manhunt 2 works), but they work on it. Maybe try the plus version of GPD XD, it supports vulcan, which might be improving the PSP performance.

personally I am loving my setup with my Moto Z2 Force phone and the Gamepad Mod. The only complant I have outside of standard Android problems is the dpad isnt great but I played for years with a 360 pad so everything feels better than that. The thing also gets 8 hours of battery life when plugged in charges both the controller and the phone plus adds back in a headphone jack. So overall I say buy it if you already have or are getting a Motorola phone that supports mods.

what do you guys think will have a better homebrew scene, the ps vita or the switch? im leaning towards the switch just cause its newer and more popular so i feel like there would be more people interested in working on it. its exciting the vita cfw is open to more people now but i have no idea what the hacking scene for it is like and it seems like its not gonna be able to do THAT much more than the psp emulation wise, like other anons said it still uses psp emulators. if i upgrade from my psp i would want a little bit extra, like working n64 emulation, dreamcast, etc.

Vita has a version of RetroArch that runs on the Vita side of things rather than PSP. It adds support for a whole bunch more stuff, including DOS, PC98. Also Quake. Not powerful enough for Dreamcast though, but you do get Nvidia Gamestream through Moonlight as a consolation, which runs about as well as PS4 remote play.

I do think the future is with the Switch though. It's early days and you should definitely go with the Vita if you want a complete experience now, but I can see homebrew developers abandoning Sony hardware for it. The Switch really is the Vita 2.

I can say the emulation under Retroarch natively is miles better than the PSP/using PS emulators on the Vita. SNES and TG16, in particular, are flawless now, which were the big hangups on the PSP. The fact that we can emulate the VB at all (even if its half speed) is neat- my hope is that with a broader audience interest in optimizing cores will renew and we will see it catch up to other Android devices in that area.

You got me there, I did not know VitaGL was more than just a proof of concept/joke. Which it apparently is not because Xash3D runs worse than on the OpenPandora, which has worse specs. The wrapper seems to be pretty bad but I must admit, I did not put a lot of research in it. Maybe we got some exciting times ahead of us and maybe this will change my initial verdict.

This irrational hate for SNES on PSP needs to stop. You all are really overeacting.
I've played SNES on my PSP for years and there's been only 3 games that have run under playable FPS which were:
Kirby's Dreamland 3 for the SA1 Chip.
BS Kaizou Tyoujin Shubibinman Zero which is a super specific case.
and Yoshi's Island because FX Chip.

Literally every other game has worked perfectly. It's not the PSPs fault you don't know how to tweak literally a couple of settings to achieve stable 60fps per game.
Both PSP and even o3ds are super good for SNES, and if you have a New, you can even play FX and SA1 chip games at 60.
o3ds already runs every SNES game but both SA1 and FX chip games at 60.

Bave you used the latest fork which is Snes9xTYL (me/cm) Mod 171017, a modded version of the original?

By just setting Engine to "PSP accel. + acur. soft." or "PSP accel. + approx. soft." and Speed Hacks to On with Ignore Palette writes" and "Simple Palette writes" makes everything playable.

Yeah, did that, its still not a solid 60FPS as it should be. Lags whenever there is a gradient overlay (in the space colony for instance), or when there is mode 7. Its certainly playable, I have beaten it that way, but compared to using SNES9x 2005 in Retroarch on the Vita, it's no contest. Not knocking the PSP for portable emu, I had and loved mine for years, and its mostly awesome for it, but now that I can use RA on the Vita it's shortcomings are a lot more obvious.

I'm super happy with both my PSP and my N2DS since both do different jobs.
Besides playing their exclusive games, both also emulate almost anything.
If I'm feeling like playing RPGs or PS1 games I grab my PSP and if I want everything else or the SNES games the PSP can't handle, , there's the 3DS.
It's a win-win situation.

nvidia Shield Portable is fucking God-tier, but has not been updated in years, nor even sold new. IT's an Android device with the comfiest controller ever built in. It has weight to it too, because it's filled with batteries. I LOVE it. Have for years. Has mini-HDMI out, SD slot, and an audio jack, too.

Dont get mad because you typed something in a way that it could be easily misconstrued on the internet. More than one person has already thought you said that starfox would run at 60 fps or that you were familiar with the gp2x. That is how it comes off as. Going back and rereading it, i see what you are saying, but its too late for that now.

Own the shield portable and tablet and will agree more. A very powerful Android device at the time which can do emulation quite well for 16 to 32bit console. Unfortunately, the second hand market for the portable (let alone the tablet) is getting harder to find and both have it's own issue to worry about now (mostly coming down to battery issue).

Also, the sales of the portable when it came out in the market sold poorly to the point, producing a portable 2 might not make sense anymore even though the prototype did leak out. Hence, the cost of the portable in the second hand market (and in some ways the tablet and K1 version) is much higher and isn't worth the cost when they're other Android handheld which you can use for emulating old console games.

I used to own a portable (sold it on CL eventually) and could never get used to the controller. Sticks felt very weird, and everything was a little too stiff.

I have a shield TV now and love it, but still can't use the controller for actual gaming.

On some reading, Nintendo doesn't support the SA-1 or Super FX chips with their official emulator. SNES9x seems to run SA-1 games at full speed without frame skip on the New 3DS though and some Super FX games supposedly just have occasional slowdowns when running without frameskip on the New 3DS. I also found a game compatibility list:

If you install CFW on a PSP, can you then remove the hack or whatever to make it look like a PSP that’s ever been tinkered with? CEX do two year guarantees on hardware bought but I’d imagine that would be invalidated if they thought you’d hacked the console.

>>4891838
There are softmods (PSP FastRecovery) that work with every model, you just run an app when you boot to hack it, reboot to remove it- much like the h-encore hack for the Vita. Best way to go IMO, that way you don't run the risk of bricking or banning your console.

It depend on what consoles you want to emulate the most at 100% speed as not all Android Handheld will emulate as well depend on specs.

Some I can think of if you're interested in this path and more common (too many no name android game handheld you can found)

GPD XD (plus)
Nvidia Shield Portable (old and harder to find)
Nvidia Shield Tablet (OG/LTE/K1)
JXD S7800 (quite old and harder to find)
Archos GamePad (Old and harder to find and not worth the cost)
JXD S7300B

Agreed. They are hard to find but people don't know what they are, and they are out there. Check the Goodwills and thrifts.

The tablet, in my opinion, is pointless, as there are better tabs out there now for cheaper than the second market. The Portable, on the other hand, is just spectacular. I would highly recommend making it a white whale for your flea market searches.

The batteries can be replaced with some easy soldering, and with three brand new Sanyo 3.7V 2450mAh batteries installed, you can get like 12 hours out of it! Plus, comfy controller makes it even better than the PSP for PSP games.
