There's also MiSTer which will give you a much more accurate experience but there's no cores for PS1/PSP at the moment (though PS1 at least is in development)

They are tiny as hell too. If you look at that dudes YouTube channel he reviews a lot of them for emulation. It’s not a bad way to go if you want to be sure to emulate everything possible with no fuss.

The Super Console X is the best all round emulation box right now. Powerful, cheap, plays everything up to dreamcast without fuss and you can install kodi or plex and use it as your htpc

I think I am gonna hold off on it TBH. My Aya Neo would be here a out the same time and that can do significantly more. I might just hack my vita or something in the mean time ( or just use the fuckin RG350 I already have ).

I think these are all the retro handhelds I have.  The big one is a GPD something ( I can’t remember) The white one is a GBA clone (it has a GBA slot on the bottom). The RG350 works great. The retro mini doesn’t work so great but it wasn’t expensive. The GPD 3DS clone works ok I just need to change the firmware around because the stock stuff sucks. Edit: it’s a GPD XD quote:
So maybe a little les powerful vs the 351? It’s hard to say. MarcusSA fucked around with this message at 00:00 on Mar 19, 2021 |

I've been meaning to make a big effortpost about these things, The 3 inch machines are made by Super Impulse Boardwalk Arcade (WARNING: the ninja turtles pinball table is the only one of these worth getting) Tiny Arcade (WARNING: the ninja turtles arcade is a port of the java flip phone game and it loving sucks) Skee Ball and Rampage are made by Basic Fun as part of their Arcade Classics line, and most of them are walmart exclusive. Anything I can find on ebay or amazon is severely overpriced, if you're outside of the US you're pretty much boned. Sometimes stuff shows up at Toys R Us, but it's a crap shoot what makes it out of the states. If anybody can get ahold of that Fix-it Felix Jr. machine please PM me The street fighter machine is actually a bootleg genesis system on a chip I got on aliexpress, and it has a bunch more roms on it including mortal kombat, streets of rage 3 and bible adventures. It's the jewel of my collection. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000290771486.html

Well my GPD XD run was short lived. The stock firmware was always whack so I tried to flash it to a better custom version (the firm ware should work as its a big community one) and well its bricked lol. I'm not 100% sure the device was always working to start with  I spent a few hours trying to fix it but no dice. Oh well!

Toooootal shot in the dark but I’ve had hardware unbrick enough to reflash after pulling the battery for a few minutes. Maybe try that?

It’s an android machine and it takes me to the android recovery screen it just doesn’t see the update File on the SD card. There is another option but that involves installing sketch Chinese software on my PC and doing it from there.

My wife loves the 351v and has mostly been playing snes on it bc it's pixel perfect. She had one as a kid and never played the marios for it, just the donkey kongs, and so really loves it

Sometimes it reboots itself but it never gets past the legacy rom boot screen. In other news DC got a pretty nice boost on the RG351 https://youtu.be/vfL3ohWaYgk

I've tried a few on Retropie setups, and they almost always have arcade games set to the wrong emulator, games listed twice because they left original and revision 1 ROMs on there (with no differences listed in the title), and all kinds of other nonsense. They seem to go for the biggest number of games regardless of quality. I've been building sets for myself that I can just copy from device to device so I don't have to deal with that stuff.

Yeah I'm honestly making a pared down "best of" set so I don't have 16,000 games on there when there's probably 30 that will ever see play.

On these Chinese emulator consoles that try to have artwork and such preloaded for most roms: how do they recognize your collection, i.e. is it by filename ala goodset, nointro, etc, or is it by hashdump ala retroachievements? Because I'd like to get one of these things some day so I'm thinking about cleaning up either my filenames or making sure I have the right dumps, because gently caress messing with full romsets of anything, ever.

I'm going to guess it varies with the software, the 351V has wifi and so I'm going to guess it just uses emulationstation's setup because that's what it is.
