3DS or Switch for most Nintendo library including DS, 3DS is more comfortable and doesn't have awful joycons with shitty dpad

You might be missing a bios file or 2. I just set up pc 6000 and pc88 on my gpd win 3. Dealing with bioses sucks. Gave up and just used retro arch since I could find a easy list of bioses I needed for quasi88. But it said if I didn’t have these extra font roms it defaults to the basic font. I’m setting up pc 98 tomorrow. The back to the future pc88 game is fucking terrible btw. Decided to try it out first, even knowing Japanese it sucks.

As a Vita owner I can say it's great since you get the entire PSP library, PS1, the Vita library, and a great active homebrew scene that is still going. The biggest downside to owning one is the non user replaceable battery.

It's a little bewildering to me.
I honestly don't understand how Analogue can get away with/justify taking peoples money and just sitting on it virtually indefinitely.
People who bought the Pocket + Dock + a set of adapters spent more than $500 after tax and shipping, so even if they make good about shipping in December, that's 16 months they've sat on peoples money.
If they had dropped the same amount of money into a brainless global market fund like $SPY on that day instead of buying the pocket, they'd be up about $160 by today. Conversely, if they're carrying that amount as credit card debt (which would be retarded, but people do), at the average CC interest rates that $500 will have grown to $620 by December, by the time they are scheduled to receive the actual product.

It's crazy. You look at Valve by comparison with the Steam Deck; A product similarly impacted by global production issues. So they way they ran pre-orders is, you drop a 5 dollar deposit to hold your spot in line, and then when your batch of Steam Decks is ready, you have a window to pay the full amount of forfeit the pre-order. And while obviously Valve is way bigger than Analogue, that should give Analogue a free pass on any criticism when it comes to how they're handling their customer's money.

Lastly, the elephant in the room too is that Analogue has never batted 1000 with their products. Everybody who purchased the Pocket had nothing to go on but a CG render and the promise of the company. Overall, Analogue makes really good products - but they have delivered products before that didn't meet costumer expectations out of the box.

>Some of their see-through consoles don't look anything like their CG renders.

First of all 16-bit games should run just fine, outside of a few SuperFX SNES games.

Native games use the CPU and GPU together to make impressive looking games.
Emulated games have to do all of their work on the CPU, and the emulated CPU calls are much slower than hardware ones.

Objectively speaking, the Switch kind of sucks from a size perspective but my main problem with hacking systems is that your games are still stuck on the system. You can't put the switch away, get on your PC later on in the day and continue playing where you stopped from there.

Once these handhelds can reliably do Dolphin, and over the next two years they likely will, the Switch will lose its throne. Anyone would rather deal with an open ARM board-based system than a hacked closed garden.

It depends if you can apply filters or not.
For PSX, some games actually display at 640x480 and downscale if the screen has a smaller resolution. Tekken 3 is an example. And much more have menus or little bits outputting at 640x480 because of the more readable fonts.
For GBA, it's much better a 640x480 screen than a 320x240. It's the same for other handhelds (gameboys, gamegear, lynx).
For SNES, 2x integer scaling is just nice.

Chrono trigger DOESN'T run at 60fps in several sections of the game. Neither breath of fire II, and it's a much simpler game. Basically, if the game uses the superFX, or any kind of fog or water effect, the performance will take a dive in the vita. Mode 7 emulation seems perfectly fine, however.

That's correct, with the exception of ps1 besides a few games like bloody roar and tekken 3 (or, all psx games that render at double resolution the entire game, 640x480).
I've played a lot of psx stuff on a simple rg350 (rg351 runs psx much better), and it has played most things flawlessly. Lara croft, xenogears, wipeout, spyro, medievil, chrono cross, etc.
Every time I've encountered slowdowns, besides 640x480 games, I compared to my osx and they were there too. (Some effects of xenogears during the boss battle under the desert, for example).

It will play a selection of PSone games. Though it will require some tinkering and customer firmware to get all the emulators working right. Its well worth $40 and you're definitely getting your bang for your buck.

Yeah. I mean, it's cool from a modding point of view, but it's worse from a practical one. The flashcart itself, no matter the brand, will already consume more battery than a normal game. There is a mod to shove a huge battery on that shell but even then, because of the ips pannel and amp the battery upgrade becomes pointless.

The chips now should be at a point where you can put faster processors into smaller devices at the same price point as the previous generation. What is the fucking hold up and why are devices still being released with chips from 2019 in them?

>> No.8140908

>>8140886
1. Chip shortages
2. You have to put android on it, which a lot of people don't want, or spend time building a custom linux distribution, which the chinks don't want to spend time on
3. Less margin for the chinks

You have to realize we've been blessed by the handheld gods the past few years. Before that, we were stuck on the JZ4425 or JZ4460 (or the few lucky guys that managed to grab a GCW Zero and enjoy that almost perfect SNES emulation AND some PSX games).
And chinks only used those chips because the linux distribution was made for them. after that, the chinks only upgraded to the RK3326 when the koreans (and brazillian) at Hardkernel took the time to build a custom linux distribution for the ODROID Go Advance.
What happens is that some people innovate (and they can be few and far inbetween), and then the chinks swallow the market with a bunch of devices built upon the shoulders of giants. When there's no giants, there's no new devices.
And you can see that with the new upcoming handhelds. All with android, because it's just easier to mash some turd together software wise and release it.

Funny how I bought a RP2 over a rgb351 because reviews said it could emulate dreamcast and psp and I ended up not using those emulators at all. Sure retroid can emulate SOME dreamcast games... if they're not 3D I guess. With Evil Twin it shits itself. And psp works so-so but the screen is too small. I wanted to avoid going through the hassle of buying a vita and hacking it but that's what I did in the end. Don't regret buying the rp2 though, it works great for everything else. I use it mostly for nintendo consoles while the vita is for ps1/psp/vita isos.

The Xbox has a dead HDD and the 2600 has a fucked circuit for players 1 and 2 and gamepad port with broken pins. Haven't got the patience to fix it yet because I emulate on my Wii, but already soldered a modchip on the Xbox.

There's only so much you can do, the DSi hardware is being abused to virtualize GBA games. It's a shame the DSi has no builtin GBA compatibility.
I like using my original DS and DS Lite though.

>DSi hardware is being abused to virtualize GBA games
It's using the inbuilt GBA hardware, that's why it's called a hypervisor
it works the same way nintendon't works on wii the only difference is that it doesn't have the slot

are you saying the DSi doesn't have ARM7?

>> No.8155987

>>8155953
It takes a lot more than containing the same processor to be able to run games natively or to virtualize them. For the record, GBARunner2 runs GBA games on the ARM9 and not the ARM7, because it has access to an MPU and is faster.

>> No.8156013

>>8155987
>GBARunner2 runs GBA games on the ARM9 and not the ARM7
then why do they almost always recommend the ARM7 build?

>> No.8156070

>>8156013
The builds are named arm7dldi and arm9dldi. DLDI is a library which DS homebrew uses to access an SD card. The different builds only change which processor accesses the SD card, not where the GBA game is run.
In particular, only the DSi ARM7 has access to the console's own SD card. That's why no arm9dldi build exists for DSi or 3DS. Only the DS flashcard build has arm9dldi, which is preferred if you are using a flashcard (but not preferred in general because you lose access to the DSi DSP which improves audio emulation).

You can find it for even less. My issue with it is that there's no way to make gba games pixel perfect while full screen, and that annoyed the fuck out of me. Also don't rely on it for ps1 really, it's not impossible to play it, but not worth it
