bro speaking

Same here 👌

Basically everyone in his community

We all window shopping here homie

Same haha

The only downside is that they really are playing with fire when it comes to these preloaded sd cards. It's a level of pseudo-piracy and non-intuitive design that holds these back from universal mainstream appeal and I just don't know how would ever be broached unless someone like Sony or Nintendo just licensed a ton of games for them, which would never, ever happen. So it's such a bummer that there's no real modern intuitive way to get a regular person a handheld that just plays these games, even if Nintendo or Sony would make a slaughter selling the roms for $0.99 on a storefront.

they know what they did putting edges to stop gameboy color games on the ds like y

​​@@colinmartin9797 Sony and Nintendo don't have the license for many of these older games aside from the obvious nintendo or Sony developed ones. Sega actually help a lot with emulation and have no issues with them. We can just buy them, no legal issues. Edited for clarity.

@@54356776 licensure for distribution can still be a gray area but that's cool to know about sega. Thanks for sharing!

Is it possible to view it on TV? if not with a cable, does casting work?

@@iclonethefirst I haven't tried casting (since it's kinda inconsistent, and I don't trust a device at this price to scale to a big TV) but it does not have HDMI out. In my research on this, basically none of the mobile chipsets do big screens super well, IMO. More of a Steam deck and up feature to work well

I agree with @dawsoncjames on the lack of discussion of HDMI connectivity to TV by a lot of KZfaq handheld games console reviewers Bob. It would really be awesome to know if and how well these devices perform with a TV screen connected as well as standalone. This would (in my mind at least) make the purchase price of the handheld unit a lot easier to rationalize, since if the TV performance was good also, you would automatically have both the portable game play functionality fun plus a home TV console setup to be able to play with a friend with an extra Bluetooth controller. JUST my opinion Bob but by adding this additional information to your already awesome handheld reviews, it would really set your reviews miles apart from the "rest" and make them even more comprehensive and make your reviews "shine" even more... Just my $0.02. Have a great weekend! Fred

Purpose driven devices are kinda more important. Is it nice to have both? Of course, but there will always be a compromised experience in one way or another. It has video out, but lacks Bluetooth. So you better have a long ass cable and the longer the cable, the less stable the signal. Etc etc etc. If ya want both get a steamdeck and a USB c dock or something similar. It will pay for itself based on its simplicity alone

Check the guys who specialize in these things, taki udon and retro game corps are good

these micro HDMI ports are very unreliable, I think that's why a lot of devices ship without them, reviewers go mad about not having micro HDMI but when you actually try them out the screen blinks every time you rock the console a little bit, making them pointless in practice.

this is a really important point, and you're right. a lot of reviewers don't touch this when it might be a main use case for some people

Yes, would love to see this.

I personally prefer skittle style buttons with no letters on them at all just to avoid this confusion

​@@dreamybull1509 You mean Snes style buttons ? That's what they are. The North American snes is the only one that didn't have these buttons or style.

How are you finding the 35xx ? I've been looking at one for a while but another device always comes out and gives me doubts.

Can you download games directly from the device?

What about GameCube?

@@joseulisesdelgadochio167 it can run most GameCube games yes but some not at full speed. There’s a spreadsheet online the community has made to see the game list and what settings to put to get the games to work right online

That's a great point that I honestly hadn't thought about. Yeah, 3ds consoles and games are going for more than a switch at the minute and rising. It's ridiculous. Edit: DS is still dirt cheap though and its the best way to play ds games.

I've been complaining about the 3DS prices for over a year now, and it has only gotten worse. There's just really no good option if you want to be able to play all 3DS games, other than a 3DS. As far as NDS/DSi prices, my collection has been loving where they're at. :)

3ds is never going to happen

NDS is fine on a touchscreen Android phone

I highly disagree. It's still only one screen. I have a Steam Deck, and it can run some 3DS games with Citra but it is definitely not ideal at all if you play any game that actually uses the touchscreen. Also, if you want to try and make an argument for NDS specifically, go play The World Ends With You on an Android phone. Then come back and tell that it was "fine".

@@davedavenport8673 👀 will see

Yup, that is my GBC / GBA / SNES player that works perfectly.

I bought mine yesterday. Hasn't gotten here and I mostly bought it for emulation lmao.

we all bought it for the emulation lmao, everything is getting ported to like the switch and stuff so games like rdr1 are fully playable at 30-60fps@@josephjahn2239

The Retroid 2S that was recently released has analog triggers, I believe. It can handle some GC emulation!

Not really. Not many games take advantage of it, and most people who would buy this kinda device probably already have a Switch and can just play the remaster.

Nah, taki udon or retro game corps. Very in depth very fast. Taki lives in China and works with some of these "companies" on occasion, and then openly shit talks them when they don't listen to his pro-consumer advice

And Zim does the best acting in the commercials #wulffdendad

Bob does great retro reviews and has his own style. Most in depth Retrogamecorps. Most behind the scenes how we got here reviews Taki.
