They now have a turquoise SF2000 in the same style as the lime green one, with the face buttons' lettering and such. Seems to match the blue camo decal you can get from some stores, maybe it was the original colour intended when they made the lime green ones?

RG300x has better performance but I own a V90 personally and it's great. V90 can also handle some PS1, Policenauts probably won't be an issue since it's 2D and less demanding. Also they're actually both based off of different GBA designs, SP for V90 and Micro for 300X (but larger obviously).

>>10053263
I'd avoid getting the RG351P, I had a RG351M and it had serious design flaws that caused it to be extremely unstable with constant crashes and failures to boot, gamepad not being detected, etc when it got to below 50% battery.

AFAIK the issues were solved with the 351MP but I'm presuming a metal case isn't your bag.

I had the one on the right but returned it. The build quality wasn't terrible and it was fairly comfortable, but on Android the stick had such an enormous deadzone that some games were just impossible to play. Also picky about what it would and wouldn't connect to (phone was fine, tablet was not). It also turns out that putting a big tablet in there wasn't at all comfortable to hold, but it was comically big for a phone.
Strangely, on Windows the stick's deadzone was fine. Maybe newer versions of Android play nicer with it, this was several years ago I tried it.

Ordered it 3 weeks ago and I received it on a subpar packaging only to find that two buttons were stuck. Whether this is manufacturer's or store's fault I don't know.
It kind of sucks because I went for this one instead of the RG35XX because people said the buttons and d-pad were better.

It's currently my preferred handheld, though objectively my RG353M is better.

The best way to improve the battery would be to use an ARM SoC, but that would make it unable to play modern PC games so they will certainly not do it. You can't really win in this situation: modern PC releases are optimized for power-guzzling towers with active cooling. New power consumption boundaries constantly get exceeded when new hardware comes out. 4090 consumes even more power than the 3090 and 5090 will probably consume even more power than the 4090. You can't hope to match that performance or even get any close at 15W, not to mention power settings where your battery lasts more than 2 hours. And good luck getting the developers to care enough for a device that sold 2 million units to actually optimize for it. Steam Deck has been out for a little more than a year at this point and it's already starting to show its age. And they stated that they will not release a new model for a few more years at least. Turns out that the promise to play AAA games on the go is probably impossible to fulfill.

AliExpress, it's probably the best known chinkshit website and the safest as well. If you are not comfortable with sharing your credit card info you can check if your bank offers virtual debit cards that can only be charged up to a certain amount of money and pay with those to decrease the risk. But the chink sellers themselves don't actually get your credit card info on AliExpress, just the site administration does so I"ll say it's not necessary.

Not entirely confident on my 353V. It doesn't creak or anything, it's sealed tight, but the plastic feels a little cheap and has a dry touch compared to the GBC. The vertical ones have a track record of people easily breaking the clips holding the shoulder buttons in place while trying to swap them, so it might be a problem.

For SNES games on the SF2000, if you find a title is running slow, try exiting and re-opening the rom. Apparently it's an issue with how the entire thing runs off of the sd card and how it just starts running roms before they even properly load, so the act of opening a game, closing it, and re-opening it will make it run smoother. This device's main flaws imo are the emulators and cores it uses, you can't just simply drag and drop roms onto the sd card as they need to be converted into a different file format first.

>on another note I have to say kids these days have it so good.
Not true at all. Generation Z was deliberately stunted concerning their educations with common core idiocy and most of which got a smart phone before they were out of elementary school. Gen Z systematically across the board is computer illiterate because they only tech they use are smart phones and tablets. They don't even know how to drag and drop files from one folder to another, no exaggeration. Generation Alpha, aka "Generation iPad" has it even worse as they were born with an iPad in their hands and they think life is just mindlessly consuming Tiktok and Youtube videos.

Sure, kids these days might have access to ridiculous amounts of technology compared to previous generations who were self-taught with what they had at the time, but it has done nothing but arrest any and all development towards becoming a functional, dependant adult.

You gotta keep in mind that as much as you coveted the thought of having 90s and 2000s home consoles running flawlessly on a handheld device, modern kids don't have that because all of their generation's most popular titles are shit like Fortnite, Minecraft, Among Us, Roblox, shit they can and probably already do play on mobile devices. For them, there is no day dreaming about pocket DreamCast or N64 emulation because the titles of their time are already mobile.

How many handhelds do you guys actively use? I thought I’d be content with just my Steam Deck as my all-in-one device, but fuck man, that thing’s a BRICK. I understand the weight when playing PC games on it, because that’s just the kind of hardware necessary to run it, but for something light like Pokemon, I would rather use something lighter if I can help it.

During college semesters, I have a little Galaxy lite7 tablet with a bluetooth keyboard case and an 8bitdo controller for N64 emulation between classes when not doing shit with the international students.

It's e-waste, I don't care how cheap it is. The SoC sucks, the software sucks, the controls suck, the speaker sucks, the screen sucks, the build quality sucks, the aesthetics suck. The only thing I like about it is the removable 18650 on the back, more handhelds should go that route. It's a pointless product designed to peddle obsolete ARM chips that wouldn't sell anywhere else to people. They are gonna buy it because a YouTuber told them to and then put it inside their drawer for years until they throw it away. Why buy a $20 handheld that cannot even handle SNES when there are good $50 handhelds that can handle PSX? If I tried to sell you a literal sack for shit for one cent, would you take that deal? Of course not. Some products have negative value, if not for you then for someone in the third world who's gonna come across them as e-waste one day (and that'd be sooner rather than later).

>The Sega Genesis Mini was first announced at the Sega Fes show in April 2018.[1] The announcement was part of a trend of releasing smaller versions of retro video game consoles.[5] It was delayed in September, missing the console's 30th-anniversary window,[24] when Sega dropped its partnership with AtGames,[1] whose 2017 Sega Genesis Flashback was critically panned for its production quality.[2][5] Instead of using AtGames's Flashback software on a Japan-exclusive Mini, Sega handled the entire production of the system

I'm torn. I looked into it and DJ Khaled seems concerned it's Android 11 and not 12, but I have the feeling those start and select buttons at the top will ruin the RP3+ for me. And while the dedicated Android buttons seem extremely handy, I hate that they're all glossy and some guy on a review brought up the sharp edges next to the shoulder buttons being an issue. Haven't heard it mentioned anywhere else, so it might be a finger size matter.

For what it's worth I actually like the Start button at the top, but I'm a weird cunt. Select is another story since it's difficult to reach without moving my right hand, but thankfully I don't use the select button nearly at all. The dedicated Android buttons are fucking awesome though, definitely agree on them being handy, though I also agree that I wish the buttons were matte instead of plastic. As far as the sharp edge, it's definitely there and weirdly pointy. That said, I only really noticed it because of that review. With the way the device angles my fingers when using L2/R2, my fingers go behind the point, and when I use L1/R1, by fingers go ahead of the point. The only time I feel the point is when I'm intentionally rubbing them because I'm bored during loading time or a cutscene kek.

Why is it depressing? The build quality and performance of MM+ and RP3+ have both made them clear front runners for best overall device whether you want something for GB sized games or anything wide-screen for the other.

Not their problem that other manufactures can't get their QC together. Amerbic used to be the gold standard company until they fucked it up by releasing a lot of redundant garbage.

35xx indeed has other problems, but I think those charging issues are plug relatated. Most phone plugs that people have are meant to charge phones under 2 hours which these handhelds cant handle. I remember having to switch to a lg plug for a 2016 budget phone since all my other plugs had quick charging.

Used RG280V I ordered from an online pawn shop just arrived. It seems to be running OpenDingux stock firmware. My initial impressions are quite good. I absolutely love the aesthetics on this thing. I'm usually not a fan of devices that look like console controller ripoffs, but this one is an exception. I love the red and gold color scheme and how the protective glass on the screen is slightly raised above the frame. The plastic feels surprisingly good too. Buttons and the D-pad are satisfying to press, but using the shoulder buttons and other controls at the same time is not very comfortable. I honestly like the software, it has you choose the ROMs as actual files instead of a unified library but I don't mind that. Two things could be done better though. One is the fact that the reset button immediately resets the device upon press. This is bad because it's right next to the power button that is also used to adjust emulator settings during a game. IMO it should require holding for a little bit to work just like the power button. The second thing is that memory cards on PSX don't seem to work. The game will either say that there is no space on the memory card and refuse to save or it will do it but the save is going to be gone next time the game is started. If anyone knows the fix for this, please tell. It's not a huge deal because I can still use save states, but memory card emulation is more "legit" because that's the only way to save the game on an actual console. I tested several PSX games (Spyro The Dragon, Rayman, Croc, Silent Hill) and all of them performed well, at least in the initial stages. Some people say that those types of devices are too weak to run PSX, but I disagree. Sure, there are some games that will not run at full speed, but they're a minority.

Nothing fancy just a Fire HD 10. Oddly enough it's on sale today for $90. It's enough to run PS1 at x3 resolution using duckstation without issue. N64 works well with mupen, DC works really well through Redream and I've had some games that work at x2 resolution without dropping frames. Sadly Saturn, GCN, and PS2 are all spotty but the occasional game runs OK on those systems. If your looking to play those though best shop for a better tablet.

Chink SD cards? Let me tell you about chink SD cards. I got an EZFlash that uses "miniSD cards", not SD cards. Not microSD cards. "miniSD cards" that sort of look like square, flatter versions of the Vita's proprietary memory cards.
Literally nobody makes the things anymore even like ten fucking years ago when I got the EZFlash, I had to keep ordering them from different Chinese companies, waiting for them arrive, only to have them arrive dead in the box and seeking a different Chinese company to buy one from. It took four fucking purchases and eight months to finally fucking get one that worked and it wasn't even an actual miniSD card, but a microSD card reader shaped like a miniSD card.

[Anonymous No.10057517]

>>10057378
It's the SNES emulator, onboard RAM, and the fact that the OS is read from the memory card. The slowdown in SNES games can be fixed by loading the game you want, exiting if it has slowdown, and re-opening the same game. CFW in the future will hopefully fix this or just use a different SNES emulator entirely.

NES on an original DS is a joke because it doesn't have enough screen space which leads to goofy looking sprites.

If you wanted to play those systems on official hardware it made much more sense to buy a 3DS, specifically "New" if you want the best experience. It can emulate GB/GBC, NES, and SNES (special chip games are spotty unless it's a "New" model) and it natively plays GBA, DS, and of course 3DS games without any additional hardware.

It's a shame the scalping market fucked everyone out of getting them for $100 and under brand new. When Nintendo announced they were done making them every scalper purchased the rest of the stock in retail and price gouged the shit out of it. The only Nintendo console that got pricer immediately after being discontinued. I miss when old tech sold for old tech prices.

I shortened the distance between the phone and my face to improve stability, then altered the way it sits to increase the amount of area in contact with my chest so there's more points of contact.

The people who make these handhelds don't regularly play them, so they never realize how shitty the ergonomics are. The superiority of horizontal handhelds have been known since the first GBA, the only reason the SP took off was due to the backlight and little kids scratching the screen.

Actually thinking about one of these and the very vs horizontal— for what these are capable of emulating, is there any reason to have dual analogs? I just got a switch lite which is great but a vertical device is good for laying on your side.

If I’m playing parasite Eve, RE2 or FF7, I think the 1 analog stick is all that’s needed right? And I know at least the original RE2 just used the D pad. Even Mario 64 with early camera control is was fixed angle degrees with the C buttons.

dpad is kinda stiff but serviceable for platformers, wouldn't recommend for fighters unless you're playing with chargers, the "analog" is fine for those kind of games
it also runs the early snk/capcom arcade games really well

I'm of the belief that he's almost the anti-Christ of gaming. Wildly popular, yet has done nothing of true value. Makes promises and gives wonderful gifts (gifts/sales) to the masses to voluntarily make them give up their right of ownership. Slowly muscles companies into releasing on Steam or their own lesser stores, kills off the thriving international game disc industry. Convinces gamers to spend all their money to wear his mark - Steam Deck/VR/merch, turning a shitty online store into a full fledged religion of millions of fanatical zealots.

All this draconian bullshit for what? Cheap, temporary licenses to play games? He cucked each and every PC gamer, installing spyware on their machines, monitoring their chatter on his client and ruining the minds of younger generations all in one, long, fell swoop.

There is also a lot of Steam OS 3 components that are not open source, because Valve is scared shitless of their competitors copying their quality of user experience.

Not shitty at all, it's often more stable than native Windows performance.

Native Linux games will never exist as long as gnutards are deathly allergic to adopting standards and stable software distribution. That and, inevitably, this approach helps keeping games compatible moving forward.

>And the most convenient way to use that compatibility layer happens to be through Steam.
It's more difficult to manage games through Steam's integrated Proton if anything, have you even tried it?

>There is also a lot of Steam OS 3 components that are not open source, because Valve is scared shitless of their competitors copying their quality of user experience.
Why would they be? No one even shipped Linux to begin with and none of their work would apply to Windows.

Still kicking myself for not buying one of those. I was in the store and offered one, but passed as I already had an XL. Bought one later on second hand (though it was like-new) and it became my main n3DS. That said, I'm still of the opinion that the n3DS is a shitty handheld for emulation unless you either already have one and can't afford a dedicated emulation handheld, or you really want to carry around something with DS/3DS compatibility while also being able to play NES/SNES/GBA... etc. games. The stand-alone emulators are outdated and shitty, and using the built-in emulators with dedicated packages for each games also blows due to how long it takes to load it up and how limited you are in the number you can have (I think the system only supports have something like 250 icons total).

Update after using it for a day: even though I still love the way it looks and feels, it has some serious drawbacks. I found the fix to the PSX save problem by using the official Sony BIOS instead of HLE and haven't pressed reset accidentally a single time since my previous post. Those shoulder buttons are way more annoying than I'd thought though. The R2 and L2 are not raised enough, which leads to sometimes accidentally pressing R1 or L1 when I want to press them the former. It doesn't help that in the PSX game I've been playing the most (Spyro the Dragon) R/L2 is camera adjustment while R/L1 is roll sideways. So I often roll and fall off a platform when I want to adjust the camera. And I have to adjust the camera often, because D-pad doesn't really give the same freedom of movement as an analog stick, only 8 directions. So this device is not the best for playing PSX games overall, even though it can run most of them at full speed. What also annoys me is the lack of scaling options in the stock firmware. PSX looks mostly fine and NES looks great, Gameboy Advance either looks too small with integer scaling or just plain ugly with nearest neighbor full screen scaling. My hands also start cramping after playing on it for about 30 minutes, it seems like anons complaining about vertislop are correct. And my hands are quite small for a white man. There is some custom firmware for this device, but installing it is a nightmare. I managed to install it, but no matter what I did, it just wouldn't read the emulator apps I placed in the /media/apps directory, and the Retroarch build it comes with is pretty bad. I don't really understand why they cannot make firmware image with all of those standalone emulators included by default, seeing as they don't take much space and the image itself will only use about 4GB while all of those came with 16GB SD cards for the OS as far as I'm aware. I'm probably going to return it and buy something horizontal instead.

Overall I gotta say this is a really nice Famiclone, probably the best quality Famiclone on the market. Its only issues are that you have to press Select to start games... neither A or Start will do anything. Also you switch the power switch down to turn it on and up to turn it off, which is backwards. The screen is extremely bright with no means to adjust it.
Mine has a line of broken pixels down the right side of the screen though, nothing I do seems to fix them. The line displays random colours. I tried flicking it, I tried running one of those stuck pixel screen tests on it, the line is just there and makes me sad. But that's a me issue. (You can probably just BARELY see it as a black line in this screen shot, running through Mario)
The shoulder buttons feel fine but, as usual, are silly since this only plays NES roms and romhacks. Most of the games are major official ones like Ninja Turtles and Mario 3 and the few romhacks on it are famous/interesting to try out ones.
