Thanks to everyone in the PYF recent purchases thread I ended buying an an indigo one as well

I bought the NES version. They really nailed it with the color options.

Here's a good breakdown video that was posted there as well:

If anybody goes RK2020 here is the image I recommend flashing to it. Use WIN32 DiskImager, do not use Etcher.

I paid the dumb $15 for DHL on the Retroid. Side note and potentially exciting with the Retroid Pocket 2, if it gets a newer Android version, you could also use it for Xbox xCloud Game Pass Streaming.

How long can one expect this type of device to be supported/updated? I can't imagine too long.

Here’s my post in PYF about Retroid’s shipping method.

I sent the email about doing this yesterday and got a reply last night so we'll see how the DHL shipping method is.

I guess they're shipping out ~600 orders each day and notifications are ~1-2 days delayed, so we should see ours soon!

Got my shipping confirmation last night! Paid extra for the DHL so we'll see how long it takes now.

I may have posted it but there’s a r/Retroid subreddit that has a compiled guide/advice sticky.

If you don’t want serious customization, I think you just run the Retroid app that’s preinstalled. A common hiccup is that you have to connect to the WiFi again once you load it.

That sticky is very helpful, thanks. There is a ton of preinstalled games which surprises me.

So if I want to use a bigger memory card do I just copy the existing folders directly over to the new card?

Only if you want to use retroid os + their game "store".


Got mine! Now I'm just waiting on reset collection to... Scan or something

I'm actually preferring to use the Retroid os so far. It just works and everything is fairly organized. The store actually has a whole bunch of games which was useful because a lot of my roms aren't working.
