Another day, another PS2 Portable from AliExpress... and this one might be the worst of them all! Can't even boot it up without 3 cards plugged in, and it's longer than a footlong sub from subway... Let me know what you think about this bad boy - are you gonna pick one up? 🤔

It might be due to the OPL version (The program that runs the games), because the compatibility isn't at 100%. I have a modded fat PS2 and to run every game from the HDD, I have multiple OPL versions, and another program called HD Loader. It's a bit hectic, but much better than using disc imo. Especially with the fat models, since you can just put a huge SSD and call it a day.

You know, these things KINDA made sense 10 years ago when the best thing handhelds could emulate was GBA or maybe PS1. Even then those low-quality portable PS2s were too big, expensive and overall shitty to actually use. But now handhelds and emulation went so far (seriously, Android PS2 emulator is only a few years old) that if you want to play PS2 portably you have a plethora of choices - Steam Deck, Retroid Pocket (can`t wait for 4 Pro), Odin, Asus ROG, hell, even a phone powerful enough can do it, and so much more - emulate Vita, 3DS, even Switch. It`s incredible. The golden times for emulation are right now, we can even play 360 and PS3, which was a pipe dream just a few years ago. So those shitty overpriced Aliexpress PS2 handhelds are now even more obsolete and useless than before.

There certainly aren't for everyone, quite a niche product i'll say. And unless the listing pictures are used by multiple people on there, looks like the seller (not that very listing) i bought mine from earlier in the year, my unit being a little different, like it booting into the PS2's "dashboard" without the special memory cards included, as normal ones do. Sure, my PC can do PS2 emulation very well as well as some high-end android devices, along with having a few actual PS2's myself. So that made it a bit pointless to get yes, but it's the novelty of having an actual PS2 that is portable like this, that you'd get one. And i do like mine, and do enjoy using it. But being practical, you can get an Ayn Odin 2 Max, for the same price. Which does PS2 emulation very well (bought one myself), along with plenty of other emulation it can do too, so if you own neither device at the time, it would be a much wiser choice to get an Odin 2 Max, instead of one of these PS2P's. Also why some games don't work right, because of the custom software used to make the games run on the Micro SD card. But yes, quite the niche thing it is, and for the few that'd get them, can still be a fun "little" device.

For only $200, you can get a Retroid Pocket 4 Pro and play almost every PS2 game and it’s much smaller

This portable console also has the same thickness like the real ps2 … so immersive 10/10

The thing I don't get is the removal of the disk drive. Like if you are going to just run roms anyway why even use the original hardware which caused it to be such an unwieldy thing? At that point you might as well just run an emulator on more modern and small hardware. The only reason to use stock hardware would be to be able to play legitimate games which it can't. Of course the question is would a PS2 disk drive even work upside down/sideways when in this handheld form factor and if not could you get a disk drive to replace it that would?

ima view this from the view of a buyer being someone whos favorite console is the ps2. first of all if im paying 500+ for this im expecting more than what this is. the size is obviously ridiculous for a portable device. it needs to be shrunk by at least half that means 4 inch screen.. the thickness could be cut down by at least 1/4th. for that price battery life needs to be 8 hours of constant play before it needs to be charged. but currently the way the product is, emulation through a steam deck or one of the countless handheld computers that are in that same price range is the better way of going about ps2 in the go. if these people are serious about providing a OEM experience on the go the design of the console needs to be revised with 3 thing in mind 1. portability, 2. comfort, and 3. ease of use. figure out those three pillars and people take these seriously.

I can tell you why it's so big. I'm 99% certain that's one of those retina screens originally intended for iPads. For the last couple years, they've been kind of a big deal (pun slightly intended) in the custom retro/gaming communities. One of the best looking screens you can get that has two different input boards for it (including one you can mod with a custom firmware by Greg from Laser Bear Industries, IIRC). They're cheap and look great. Even I've got one, but I've never taken it out of the box it shipped in. Also, I think you were just wording things in a way novices could understand, but at 10:57 that's just a board to solder to, to make the final connections to the pins of the controller port. It's not tricking the system into thinking there's a PS2 controller plugged in, because there is one (well, soldered in). On the front half (bottom in the video), the little square green board with the globtop contains the main chip from a knockoff Dual Shock 2 controller.

"Portable" I think you missed the mark on that. When you make the Steam Deck seem small, you goofed.

They could have reduced the size alot. They should probably have just made it as small as possible and instead of having built-in controllers, come with a Bluetooth controller because that does not look comfortable to play and if it’s battery powered it still technically, portable, only it would still be comfortable I always thought about trying to buy one of these things with the idea that it’s gonna be junk but I will improve it but I’m afraid to send so much money to China because if they send me nothing or garbage what recourse do I have? have you always got what you paid for when ordering products from these companies would you say it’s safe to make a purchase?

If you got extra money to burn or collect these kinds of oddities then you’d probably buy this. Honestly, I would buy a dedicated PS2 portable because even though I emulated some PS2 games on my PC the performance is kinda terrible frames-wise.
