Afaik you can just use normal ROMs on a 3ds if you don't use Nintendos built in emulator.

Moot .1415926535 posted:These PlayStation style controllers aren’t cutting it for my Street Fighter needs, is there a controller that anyone recommends for SNES games? Usb? If you can find it, I'm a big fan of the pokken controller. Same layout as a SNES controller, but ergo as gently caress. Not sure how it will do for fighting game controls (I don't think pokken uses rotations, but I haven't played it) and my internet is down at the moment so I can't check.

Walla posted:So this may be a stupid question, but is there a reason to get one of these if you already have a soft-modded 3DS and/or PSP? I mean, is there something special these devices can do that the others can't? It's hard to find a head-to-head between these things and hacked consoles, but not much of one as far as I can tell. The advantages that I see is that they're somewhat cheaper, come in different form factors, and don't require hacking, simple as it is.

The United States posted:Looks like the Trimui got improved and price dropped, which makes it competitive for an ultra tiny ultra slim portable in the $50~ category Well that's a half-drunk impulse buy. I've accumulated a number of "real" handhelds that will play whatever, but they're too big to actually carry around. This looks nicely pocket sized, I just hope the screen isn't too small for my ageing eyes.

It should be fine for the 1280x800 resolution. The website says it's using RDNA 2 gpu cores, which aren't available in any APUs outside of the new consoles, so it's hard to say just how strong it will be on that front. E: also lol at taking up a bunch of space for touchpads, causing the buttons to be awkwardly jammed in the corner, since the steam controller was so rousingly popular.

Missed those, that should be workable. Possibly a pain for those will small hands. My few minutes with a steam controller were enough to sour me on thumb based touchpads as a primary control mechanism .

MarcusSA posted:but can be wiped to run windows with no issues. Depends on how the controller is connected. If it's just a USB device or a steam controller, sure, but if they're doing anything funky with it it could be a problem. All the sites covering it are down though, so getting info right now is difficult. Running modern (non-switch) games off an SD card is going to be an exercise in pain.

Gabe has confirmed they're selling at a loss, though the premium for storage has to help a bit. 64gb eMMC is one step above bottom tier Chromebooks. 256gb NVMe drives are $40-50 retail, vs the $130 price premium. 512 drives are $60 retail, vs a $250 markup, though you get an anti-glare treatment with that too.

Weedle posted:the idea of a handheld pc sold by a company from which you can expect some degree of after-sales support is certainly appealing. but they should have made the controls normal, and not offered the 64gb emmc version It wouldn't get nearly the buzz with a $529 headline vs $399, and storage is the unsexy part so it's an easy cut, but it's hard to see the emmc version as anything but ewaste.

LODGE NORTH posted:The $400 price point does make me wonder what the high-end stuff will be priced around going forward. It looks like the MOQI i7s, which used to be $400, is going for about $250 now at least on AE, but it is a few years old now. The steam deck is being subsidized by valves nigh-monopoly on PC game distribution, smaller operations, especially those without a continuing revenue stream from the device (i.e. all of them) won't be able to come anywhere near that price point. The steam deck looks really cool but it's far too large for me to actually take anywhere which means I don't have any use for it.

zachol posted:Huh, neat. Hope the Deck spurs more options with more modest prices, although I'm a lot more interested now, hadn't noticed the PS3 performance. BoM is always hard to say, especially with a semicustom part like this CPU, but for comparison, the Lenovo IdeaPad flex (seemingly the only laptop available with AMD's newest APU), which has 2 fewer GPU cores and they're Vega, not rdna 2, 8gb of ram, 256gb of storage, and 14" 1080p screen, retails for $600. The steam deck also has brand new tooling for all it's parts. Part of Valves math here is that they get a cut of most/all of the games you'll buy on this, something Aya doesn't have going for it.

The steam deck website has been updated to say all versions use a socketed 2230 m.2 module, but that they're "not intended for user replacement". Makes you wonder how hard this thing will be to open / replace the battery.

MarcusSA posted:Yeah getting the $399 version and a $100 512 m.2 would be a good way to go. Worth noting it won't take a "normal" m.2, unless they've left a bunch of empty space next to the slot. Consumer drives are 2280, this takes a 2230, which are the stubby little drives you might find in a laptop. You can still get them but you'll most likely pay a premium, e.g. dell has a 512 on their website but it's $150.

Got my Powkiddy A66 / Trimui Model S finally, and there's like an oily rainbow sheen on the front plastic, seemingly on the inside of the device. Its not visible when you're looking at it dead-on so its not like a major deal, but its kind of disconcerting. Does anyone else's have something like that going on? Also, any recommendations for a screen protector? E: after opening it up and giving the inside a good isopropyling, I can confidently say it's a property of the plastic itself, and don't open it up.

JazzFlight posted:This is a general emulation question, but anyone know why MAME always needs particular romsets unlike just random rom files like any other emulator? The Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator emulates a bunch of different hardware platforms, you need the right rom for the right hardware. Lots of arcade machines are entirely unique and custom systems that's purpose built to run one / a handful of games. Also, different versions of MAME support different hardware.

I don't usually watch the videos on the boxes, do any of them have better price/perf than a Pi? I'm well aware of the pita that is getting RetroPie set up, but from the vids I've seen you appear to be stuck with a sizable shortfall in capability in exchange for that convenience.

Chas McGill posted:Not sure if this is the right thread. Anyone have any idea why Bsnes only seems to run at 30fps (essentially half speed, judging by the sound) on my Ryzen 3600? I tried looking for a framerate limiter, but couldn't see anything like that. Default settings. I feel like the machine should be able to handle SNES emulation. There's got to be a setting misconfigured somewhere, there's no reason a 3600 can't run it with all the bells and whistles. Is the run-ahead set really high maybe?

njsykora posted:Not the mini PC things really no, they can run higher end emulation like PSP and Gamecube and PS2 but most of them cost 3-4x the price of an 8gb Pi and a nice case to keep any overclocks cool. Android TV boxes seem to be the sweet spot for price/performance at this point since even the top level Nvidia Shield is the same price as the Super Console X King. Nah I meant android boxes vs the pi, given that you shouldn't need an 8gb pi for emulation and I was under the impression the pi was more powerful than the $50 android boxes.

I think I'm going to pick up one of the game and watch screen protectors for the trikui model s, but the only come in a 4 pack, anyone else want one? Also, does anyone have a good way to get the SD card out? The only ways I can manage are unscrewing the back or tweezers, neither of which I'd like to do much more.

Add in probably mixing up some device reviews vis-a-vis hard to access SD cards and I figured it wasn't a push type. Pulling it out before probably wasn't great for the mechanism but it still works so :/

It's been a long time since I've seen a micro in person but isnt it like twice as thick as the trimui too? The pocketability of the trimui is even better than I hoped it would be, it functionally adds no bulk to a pocket.

And as a European what are my options other than AliExpress or hoping that I pick the right model from Amazons autotranslated mess? N64 is a bitch-and-a-half to emulate to begin with, I don't think any of the current crop of affordable devices handle the library handily. And, at least in the US Ali or Amazon are your only good options. Reportedly most/all of the other storefronts are just dropshipping from Ali anyways.
