Putting the imaged SD card into the 351v. Instead of repartitioning and all of that the cursor blinked a few times and then just stopped like the process hung or something. Tried a few different times and the furthest I got was that the repartition appeared to happen successfully but again the process just stopped there. 351Elec did it’s whole process without any issues. I’ll come back to it later and try again once the final arkos release is out.

Got my 351V and man this thing is awesome and feels great to hold. ArkOS is great so far but it definitely tosses you into the deep end and you either sink or swim configuration wise. Had to watch a lot of videos to get a solid grasping of navigating the thing. N64 performance is solid (at least WWF No Mercy and Majora's Mask so far) on ArkOs using the rice emulator which is great and the 4:3 screen looks so drat nice. pootiebigwang fucked around with this message at 16:10 on Apr 27, 2021 |

So this was just posted and it could be really good! https://youtu.be/kHH8oSne6a0 Supposedly gonna launch at $199 but it’s also supposed to be incredibly powerful so it could very well do GC if that video is anything to go by.

That looks awesome but I’m gonna keep holding out for a super powerful 4:3 because I won’t care to emulate anything past systems that support it.

Genshin is incredibly demanding and even my 12 pro max runs into issues with everything maxed (it’s mostly thermal throttling tbh ). Could be the mythical handheld that finally does GameCube for a decent price!

Just got my RG351V and it's way nicer than I was anticipating! Great screen! Is there any good reason to switch to another firmware or anything yet, or is what ships with it fine if I just want to play SNES/Genesis games casually?

The stock loading times are also fine. If it does what you want I’d just call it good for now and play the games you’ve been itching to play.

Has anyone gotten ScummVM to work on the stock 351V? I can't figure out what folder to use. edit: The OS card has a scummvm folder but my ROM card doesn't. hmm.

For example, in your "Day of the Tentacle" folder, create a file "Day of the Tentacle.scummvm" containing the text "tentacle".

Googling has told me no. It’s lame because my motor was dead the first week I owned mine and now that it isn’t I’m probably going to cut it out. It’s a pretty easy system to disassemble.

I have already run into an issue. I’m not very tech savvy myself, just following guides online. I’m trying to switch everything over to a new sd card, but when I plug my sd card into my computer it says the disk needs to be reformatted? I saw that retro game corps has a video about this issue, but my computer isn’t even showing any partitions, just an empty drive. Any ideas?

It's one of the main things the devs in the v channel on Discord were grumbling about; that and the weird USB hardware for the controller that doesn't always want to come back after sleep. I believe both TheRA and ArkOS have some fix in place that reduces the time it spends rumbling to just a couple seconds, though. I assume 351Elec as well. remigious posted:I have already run into an issue. I’m not very tech savvy myself, just following guides online.

The cards that come with these things are cheap and Windows is finicky, and it wouldn't surprise me if it was weirdly partitioned or just broken enough for Windows to melt down. If it's booting while in your p, it might be easier to pull your data from that, over wifi with a dongle, or possibly to a USB drive via OTG? I'm not sure if the p stock os has a file manager or supports reading/writing to USB sticks. Alternatively you could try running a raw disk scanning undelete tool on the drive, but that would probably take forever and I wouldn't go that route unless you *really* desperately need to keep that Pokemon save or whatever.

It’s annoying enough that it make me want to look for a different handheld. Do the RG351P or Retroid Pocket 2 rumble on boot too?

The 351P is enough of a screen downgrade that if you picked it solely because it didn’t rumble I’d be like wtf.

Are there any vertically oriented handhelds that have genesis style ABC-XYZ buttons? The closest i've seen is the Powdkidy A19, but reviews are mixed: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/400...earchweb201603_

Though I love the RPI4 powering it for more emulator choices.

i dunno i might get one. it's the first rk3326 device with dual analogs that can do 2x integer scaling for nes/snes/genesis/ps1. on the other hand it looks kinda chintzy so i might hold out for anbernic to do a metal version

The RG552 is coming, apparently. 5 inch screen, new SOC, and it looks like it can handle PSP without breaking a sweat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oqk5wXxObdY Everything else I can find (basically this article) is theoretical and vague, but nice to see a power bump on these things.

My retroid pocket 2 showed up and it’s pretty sweet. I started a game of Pokémon Gaia immediately without adding my 128 gb sd card and now want to switch to that card. I figured I could just copy the save file wherever it is to my computer, swap cards, find the instructions to format the new card, and then copy it back onto the device, but when I hooked it up to my computer via usb it didn’t show up as an external drive. Any advice on how to switch to this new sd card but also keep this save file? Thanks.

Save files are stored on the internal drive, just switch sd cards and don't worry about it

There's was a portable Wii that is similarly priced. You can make one yourself but you have to source a Wii and cut the mainboard so it fits into the shell.

Wamdoodle posted:There's was a portable Wii that is similarly priced. You can make one yourself but you have to source a Wii and cut the mainboard so it fits into the shell. I think that custom portable ps2 was like $500 as well (maybe more). Also a new handheld has entered the market https://youtu.be/5pPzwByK2Ck Yes it’s expensive but the screen is lol huge. The device is actually pretty huge and I’m not quite sure it would be super comfortable. It’s also a bit pricy. I am pretty happy with my Aya Neo pre order even with this thing coming out. The intel iGPUs are getting really good but their drivers leave a lot to be desired. Also the intel power consumption is off the charts which again leaves a lot to be desired in a handheld. At least with AMD you can change the TDP on the fly and get significantly improved battery life if you are playing low powered games. With emulation on these things you absolutely have to limit the TDP or the emulator will gobble as much power as it can even if it’s not needed.
