So I fixed N64 for this device about 2 months ago now. It was the core that was messed up. I didn't fix the input yet. Added folders for all of the cores listed in the es_systems.cfg file, they don't all work yet but do have Dreamcast and sega 32X working. Set the resolution to core provided so that 4:3 displays correctly but you'll still have the black bars I'm not sure how to add bezels. Opened up Retroarch's backend as well. Instructions for modifying the theme, it's got a weird method for this. EmulationStation is still locked down but would need an actual cfw to fix that.

50% of the times stuttering is because the microsd 1- use sd-imager and make microsd .img card backup immediately, 2-get a branded microsd ASAP (any V30 U3 A1)= more than 100mb/sec that is at least 40% faster than the stock microsd, 3-write the stock microsd .img to the new card with sd-imager (that until new custom firmware is made that may fix the lack of configuration options on the emulation) and if using bigger a microsd card resize the roms partition with minitool partition wizard free. note: although i do not own the R43 pro or M18 i do own a powkiddy q90, an R36S and a retroid pocket 3 and i plan to get the R43 pro in a couple of months after watching how it fares.

@@DecibelAlex there is no perfect handheld emulation console I have a powkiddy q90, a R36S and a retroid pocket 3, my previous opinion about the r43 pro was biased because of the wide screen on a vertical DMG style console but in the end the retroid pocket 3 is better. r43 pro suffers other issue too bulky to get in to a pocket

WOW! What an interesting looking device. Ergonomic grip, slanted R1 R2 L1 L2 buttons but no HDMI or 2nd USB-C or 2nd SD card slot and... ONLY mono speaker? 4 GIGS OF RAM!? Jebus crisps!

I think the button layout should reflect the type of game you want to play. Diamond setups are fine for super Nintendo and neo Geo and game boy advance, PS1, PS2, and PSP. Also 5 and 6 button only arcade games. A 2 or 3 button setup is great for 2 and 3 button only game systems and arcade games.

@Omega_Mark 3 ай бұрын

Have you tried playing any of these stuttering games while having this device plugged in into a charger? Wondering if this thing is throttling a bit while on a battery, just like with laptops. Also, replace that MicroSD card with something better and keep the image on your HDD for safekeeping.

I love the widescreen on a vertical. It’s funny hearing the complaints because when it comes to psp everyone always mentions that it’s squished. lol you really can’t please anybody. This is good because you get your widescreen and it does not hurt the other games, bezels or no bezels.

@bigemugamer 3 ай бұрын

If you ask me a 3:2 ratio works best for a device that's used for everything from NES to PSP because thern you have very minimal bars above and below for PSP but also very minimal bars side to side for NES, Genesis TH-16, etc. though GBA would have no bars at all. Well at least for me a 3:2 aspect ratio would be the best (unless every retro system could do a 16:9 aspect ratio without cropping or stretching then I'd be totally down for 16:9)

That's the hope. Aside from the low res screen (that in real life looks much better than it should) the hardware is very good for the price, so a custom firmware could make this device so much better and unlock its potential. Fingers crossed.
