Are cheap chink handhelds still the same as Dingoo A320 and they still don't play F-Zero and Super Mario Kart without frameskip?

A $40 Android device will play everything far better with no delay and almost any cheap controller you want.

Your reply doesn't answer the question.

>>6113661
Dingoo A320 became popular because of a community developed custom firmware called OpenDingux, which is a Linux compatible operating system.

A few years later, a system called the GCW Zero came out which featured OpenDingux as default, and for a while there was substantial open source game and emulator development for the OS.

Last year we saw an influx of Chinese handhelds using OpenDingux as their firmware on similar MIPS processor powered devices, such as the RG-350, Game Kiddy 350H, and Bittboy's New Pocket Go 2 (aka Miyoo Max, aka PlayGo, same device different branding)

In the case of the New Pocket Go 2, it's quite literally a GCW Zero revision, the internals are near-identical and it has some improvements especially as button layout is concerned.

These newer Chinese handhelds are all capable of playing a majority of SNES and GBA games at fullspeed without frameskip, as well as PS1 games at full speed. Performance will vary depending on the emulators installed and if they have been updated or not.
Compatibility can vary, if you're concerned about playing ROM hacks.

You could get the RG350 that is the newest one realized it can play PS1 well enough and the older games easily on NES and SNES.

[Anonymous No.6115654]

I still have my A-320 from years ago.
Ran some stuff great, struggled with some things.
I never liked softmodding and hacking consoles.
I don't like how the psp and vita feel, and a big portion of the screen isn't used because of black borders.
I'm waiting on a RG-350. Bought it after seeing how fast it could run ps1 and snes. I went with it over the game kiddy because of the 2 extra shoulder buttons.
As I get older, I have less time, so I love handhelds. I personally love all this goofy chinese shit, but that's from growing up with shitty handhelds.
I got a transparent one, and it sort of looks like a neo geo pocket, which is something I always wanted to dive into, but couldn't justify spending money on.

Didn't think it was a bad price since I'm trying to save space. Don't like collecting after I realised how much I missed out growing up with inferior 50hz versions of games, so I'm not precious about physical stuff.
I like leaving them in my car or a bag for if I have to take family to a doctor's appointment. Great little time killers, and for showing friends games they've missed.

Add +40$ for quality controller. Plus no good way of holding all that in a portable situation. Maybe you can get a clip or prop it up on something but still bulky AF and not as portable. Android isnt without its issues either.

If you want something portable you are probably better off with an actual portable device.

From what i can tell the version of android it uses is way too outdated for some of the apps, which results in the emulators being either too laggy or not functioning at all on it, and the ones that can run well on it are things that a PSP can easily emulate.
Shame really because i liked the Xperia Play's concept of being a phone / physical handeld hybrid, as that's what i wish some android devices should've been in the first place if they so wanna cater to the gaming market with all the "MUH POWERFUL DEVICE".

>RS97/LDK/RG300
The analog is just the dpad in another format
plays everything up to GBA and Megadrive perfectly fine. Has some slowdowns with superFX games, other SNES games run perfectly (except when Chrono Trigger has mist on the screen). For SuperFX and CT you need frameskip. Plays 2D PSX titles with/without frameskip. Forget 3D titles. Plays arcades up to CPS2.

>RG350
Plays everything up to PSX. Struggles without frameskipping on some fighting 3D PSX titles like Tekken 3. Plays N64 at 10 FPS. Has double (TRUE) analogs with click functionality and rumble for some games that use it. Has L2/R2/L3/R3 and OTG USB that can be used for wi-fi functionalities (if devs implement it). Plays arcades up to CPS2, CPS3 has slowdowns.

>GKD350H
Like the RG350, but without L2/R2/L3/R3, the second analog stick and other assorted hardware stuff. The CPU is 50% better than the RG350 and so it can play all PSX titles at full speed and CPS3 too. The RAM is much less than the RG350 though, so in memory intensive titles in can shit the bed a bit.

>Pocket Go 2/Play Go/whatever
Like the RG350 with the same hardware capabilities, but lacks second analog stick and rumble. Quality control is shit so some units have hardware problems.

As much as I liked my Xperia Play, this is wrong. The D-pad buttons were a pain in the ass making anything that wasn't an RPG or otherwise turn-based game, making it into a nightmare to play. Emulating NES/SNES/SMS/Genesis wasn't too bad, anything beyond that was too slow, and the action heavy SNES and Genesis games were too much for it. Sure, I forced Twisted Metal 2 onto it using the built-in PS1 emulator exploit, but playing it was an exercise in frustration since it was difficult to get it to register D-pad movement, as well as the pads for the L2 and R2. And the slider is just something that gets gummed up with dust and lint and eventually stops working properly.

But if they've actually gone up in value, I gotta hunt mine down and sell that fucker before people figure out how bad the D-pad buttons are to use.

For the price that's a good deal on an android handheld emubox build-your-own kit. That being said, they really crippled this thing by using 1GB of DDR3 786Mhz RAM when the CPU they chose can handle 4GBs of DDR4 1600Mhz. Instead of spending $7 on RAM they should have spent $13 and made this a powerhouse portable emubox.

I just got an Ipega controller. Phone fits in the middle and holds the phone, and it works like a charm.

It also includes a (somewhat buggy) alternate mode that allows you to map controls to the screen, so you can play games that are made to run natively on the phone (I play the Play Store version of NetHack this way).

I paired it with a $60 Galaxy J3 Orbit, and it plays everything up to and including Dreamcast without lag.

PS2 Play! won't load, and old Dolphin builds do load, but I'm still going through all the old 23-bit builds to get the most compatibility. Better phones than mine can easily handle it, tho.

This is definitely the best way to go. Cool thing is, it's also big enough to hold my tablet, which doesn't work with it because it runs Fire OS and Amazon makes garbage that doesn't support anything other than their own proprietary junk (but it'll work with any Android device proper).

The Ingenic J4770 that got used in the GCW Zero also got used in the New Pocket Go 2. It's an end of life product for sure.
There's also an Ingenic processor inside the Supercard DS Two flashcart, it's used for some extra power to emulate GBA/SNES games, play video, or implement a real time menu.

I don't have any issue with Ingenic MIPS processors.
Depending on what you want to emulate, MIPS or ARM will have advantages or disadvantages.

PS1 is MIPS architecture which makes it easier to emulate on a MIPS device.

I don't know if OpenDingux works with ARM devices or if it's MIPS only, but the existing software developed for it is a strength.

I think any ease is probably offset by price. A Go is expensive these days, as is the set of cables to use it with a TV. A PS1 and a modern five wire mod chip won't even set you back $50 and a five wire is trivial to install, even if you've never soldered before. Chuck on a spindle of CD-Rs and you're golden.

I'm not saying that the PSP Go is a bad setup mind you, it's pretty neat. Just that it's more one that's neat than one that's at all practical for most people.

Is there a single device, chink or otherwise that beats the vita for emulation yet? Anything that might beat it in 2020? I know phones are the ideal but a lack of physical buttons is a deal breaker.

Vita is solidly built, lots of community support, great buttons and analog sticks. Price is extremely competitive if you get a high quality used one.

Downsides -
>No L2/R2/L3/R3 (but plenty of extra buttons you can remap)
>Can't play N64 or Dreamcast compared to some of the higher end chink devices
>Can do neat things with some modern android chink devices

Upsides -
>Native PS1 games
>Native PSP games
>Native PS Vita games
>Can output display to PC/TV

Many of the better chink devices don't even have a second analog stick

What are your reasons for wanting a PSP/PSPGo over a Vita?

[Anonymous No.6132190]

>>6132178
The Go is smaller and runs the same emulators for the most part. IMO an N3DS is better than a Vita, but that really just depends on if you want DS, 3DS and N64 ports. The PS1 emulation is pretty good on an N3DS with the latest stable build, I haven’t really found anything that doesn’t run well with some minor tweaking.

[Anonymous No.6132201]

>>6132190
Interesting suggestion, I think the device is multiple times worse and shoddy PS1 emulation is quite bad considering the massive library. You're essentially trading DS and 3DS games natively for PSVita, PSP and PS1. But considering how much better the 3DS/DS library is compared to PSP and PSVita that might actually be worth it. On the other hand the single screen is considerably worse and you can't tweet from a 3DS

I'll have a look into it but I'm not convinced it's a better emulation/retro gaming device, it's simply a great option if you want DS/3DS games.

Most of the other emulators are better more accurate versions. That’s not really a disputable thing though.

[Anonymous No.6132231]

>>6132226
I'll be honest, being 99.7% accurate is fine for almost every single use case outside of speed running. If you really need 99.999% accurate then you should be playing natively anyway. The screen size and worse PS1 emulation would probably rule the 3DS out straight away for me over the Vita.

You convinced me to dig out my flash cart and 3DS for some 3DS/DS gaming at some point though.

But SNES, Genesis, GBA, NES and Gb are all really bad on the vita man. There’s lots of popular games that just don’t work. It isn’t a case of 1 or 2 games. The 3DS also has better 32X, Sega CD, Turbografx, SCUMM, ZX Spectrum and C64 emus. The Q1, Q2 and Half Life ports are really good on it as well. I don’t know why people have such a hard on for the PSP/Vita

Gens Plus GX on the vita is just straight up a clunky port. You only have 2005 SNES not any newer version. 3DS has Nestopia and FCE Ultra, Native GBA, excellent GB/C emulation through native GBA. And fully fleshed our ports for the other consoles and dual screens facilitates a better interface for C64 and Speccy and SCUMM. I have both consoles and know exactly what they’re capable of.

I looked it up just to verify. Nestopia isn’t fullspeed. SNES 2010 isn’t fullspeed. Fuse crashes still. Gens Plus GX looks totally fine from the last time I used it now so that’s equivalent to N3DS now. PS1 emulation is better in ways that on the 3DS. MAME and FBA are both fullspeed on the 3DS and aren’t on the Vita. Where’s your breakdown of both systems?

PicoDrive used to be my favourite thing for Mega Drive emulation, back on things like the GP2X, the Wiz, the Caanoo, and the GCW Zero.
It hasn't had any significant development since around 2013 though.

How does Genesis Plus GX fare over PicoDrive? They're both available on OpenDingux, but I find myself preferring PicoDrive because it allows you to map emulator shortcuts like fast forward and load/save state to buttons, and even confirm if you want to load/save a state.

Amazing collection anon, I was thinking of importing a (used) white/pink or white/black vita for aesthetic reasons, they use USB charging so it shouldn't be an issue and homebrew won't be affected right?

What would you say is better for emulators out of Vita/3DS since you obviously have both? I already have a flashcart and a 3DS available to me but the Vita aesthetic does seem appealing and so much more comfortable

[Anonymous No.6134271]

>>6134225
>USB charging
You mean the type of connector it is? The 1000 uses a proprietary connector and the 2000 uses micro-usb. The former is a non-issue for me because the cables are cheap now.
I would go for a 1000 vita over 2k simply because the build quality is much better, and the 2000 seems to develop a stick drift issue.
For emulators I use both the 3DS and vita.
GBA and DS I obviously use the 3DS because they run natively, I also tend to play non-chip SNES games on 3ds because the lower res screen with the "scanlines" actually make the games look pretty good. Same with GB/C. Chip SNES games will run better on vita though so they're played there.
Everything else I tend to use the vita for because of that god tier D-pad, the better screen and better performance for some games. Popful mail for example will drop some frames for me using retroarch on 3DS (both genesis plus gx and picodrive and even overclocked) while it runs fine on vita with genesis plus gx. Snatcher runs fine on 3ds though, even without an overclock so it's probably game specific.

I stick with retroarch for vita, when you set it up right and overclock for the games that need the extra speed, it runs great. Even some PS1 games will run full speed through PCSX-RA, DQ7 for example because the native solution can't display the text boxes.
Don't forget the myriad of ports for both systems though. JSR is a full 60fps port on vita along with the various PS2 ports. 3DS as well with games like DQVIII and tales of the abyss.
Also you don't need a flashcart anymore, twlightmenu runs pretty much every DS game without issue at this point and AP patches are now built in.
