Froist posted:Ah yeah, I missed the "Vita" part of your original post. Just tried this out and it does feel a lot more natural, but running in RetroArch (to get configurable controls) is far lower performance than RetroRun on arkOS. Shame. I really can't recommend a hacked Vita enough. The Vita library is great, PSP and PSX backwards compatibility is around 90% and right now a sheer ton of Android ports are being ported since the Vita also runs on ARM: Max Payne, Bully, the GTA games, AM2R and a bunch more. Also RetroArch runs decently enough for everything for 8 and 16 bit systems. It's gotten so I don't even touch my 3DS unless I want to play a DS or 3DS game, or I need to run a GBA game natively. Also does RetroArch have decent PSP emulation? Maybe that version will run better than Dreamcast/GC.

drat they’re already gone. That’s one of the colors I wanted, too. Oh well, maybe Nintendo will notice that every one of these will sell out in minutes. Rolo fucked around with this message at 16:42 on Jun 18, 2021 |

Thanks for posting about it though! Good looking out. If this happens again and someone snags I’ll happily toss up a 30$ finders fee.

Am I correct in assuming that 351Elec P works on the 351m since the only difference is the exterior shell?

You’ll want to get a new SD card since the one that comes with these things is very low quality and has a tendency to crap out at some point.

Plus SD cards are really cheap compared to the risk of losing a bunch of save files.

I've ordered an rp2 after seeing loads of good reviews and just caught up on the thread now and getting concerned but still going to wait and see how it is when it arrives. One thing I'm wondering is if these things can all run PS1, N64 and sort of Dreamcast then how come they can't work Saturn games? Is it just because hardly anyone bought one or is there some problem with emulating them?

Because Saturn is harder to emulate than any of those. Hear it from a MAME dev: https://www.reddit.com/r/emulation/...web2x&context=3 quote:The Saturn was a complex system with too many odd limitations etc. Now Saturn emulation has come a LONG way in the past decade but it's still going to be a bit too difficult for these underpowered $100~ handhelds

The legend was that Sega built the Saturn as a primarily 2d system and bolted on the second video processor at the last minute when they saw the PlayStation for the first time and realized Sony was going to eat their lunch It turns out that this was not true, but everybody including actual devs believed it because why the gently caress would you design a system like that on purpose

They had the opposite of our chip shortage today, they had too many chips, so many they had to invent a console just to get rid of them

That d-pad also looks a little flat for my liking but I guess it's hard to tell from the angle. Who made that thing anyway? They are the same as the joycons for better or worse. I do think they could stand to be a little larger. They used those sticks because those are the most commonly made ones these days. The d-pad is actually concave and works pretty drat well so far. I’m gonna install some emulators tomorrow and give it a real test but I like how it feels from the few games I’ve played. It’s made by this company https://www.ayaneo.com/aya-neo Which is brand new to the handheld market but has so far shown great promise. The build quality of this thing really feels great for a first gen device. I might see about getting some joycon caps to make the sticks a little larger though.

I like the RG351V except the screen size seems a tad too small. There's probably a good chance the next iteration will have a bigger screen, right? e: also this thread would make a good fit for the retro subforum

hamsystem posted:What's the recommended firmware for an RG351v? I ordered one this morning and want to get everything on the SD card before it gets here I've used 351Elec since day 1 and I've been really happy with it. There was no fiddling required except for getting a cheat file downloaded and transferred over with ftp. Retro Game Corps on youtube has reviews of the different firmwares and guides on how to install them all if you feel like checking that out. Does anyone know if there's an updated cheat file for retroarch floating around anywhere? Google didn't come up with anything offhand. I know I can add my own cheats but it'd be nice to avoid the tedium if possible.

If I want to plug something into my TV and play PS1, N64, and SNES games, what are my best options? Portability is of zero concern. Being able to Bluetooth a DS4 is essential though.
