Apparently this is one of the trusted resellers, plenty of good reviews at the very least

As always, don't bother buying a bigger SD card, most would say to straight up turf the card you get either way as they're that bad a quality. In any case, don't pay more for their shit card.

I've got a couple of these. Anything you wanna know, shoot. For the price, this is a great little machine and an excellent stocking stuffer.

    Got this last time it was cheap. Great console, haven't had time to upgrade the sd card yet but having lots of fun. Now looking at playing half life 1 and 2 through portmaster, will see how it goes

    • ihfree on 16/11/2024 - 22:30

      That's awesome that you can run HL on a pocketable device now - guess i've got another playthrough coming up.

  • Lizard Spock on 16/11/2024 - 20:43

    Couple of questions: can I save game progress (i.e. can I save progress in a game like Sega's Alex Kid?). Also, where does one source the games for the SD card?

    • pichxlonco on 16/11/2024 - 20:45

      Yes you get the same features on the emulators. For most things it appears to use retroarch, and i have been able to save game states without issues

      • Lizard Spock on 16/11/2024 - 20:48

        Excellent. Thanks for letting me know. And getting the games themselves?

        • pichxlonco on 16/11/2024 - 20:54

          The default card comes with quite a few games. The rest can be found online. Look at www.fmhy.net for some guidance on roms and emulation.

          Also look at old deals for same console in here, and browse the comments as people point to some useful guides

          That we cant help.

        • ihfree on 16/11/2024 - 22:45

          Have a look at this comment otherwise Google/Google Reddit.

  • AyTrain on 16/11/2024 - 20:47

    Hey op thanks for answering questions: how does this compare to RG35XX / Plus?

    • CyberMurning on 16/11/2024 - 20:57

      This is cheaper.

      • maverickjohn on 16/11/2024 - 21:10

        But lower quality.
        It's best value but for more premium device go up to an anbernic

    • PainToad on 16/11/2024 - 21:02

      This is a clone of the old RG351.

      Being a knock off it’s not Anbernic quality. It’s okay but not Anbernic.

      • KaTst3R on 16/11/2024 - 21:30

        I got a RG35XX and it recently started to be weird. Many games i play have super weird colors like the game is corrupted. Im using Samsung sd cards which are fairly new. I checked in windows that the cards have no corruption. I dont think Anbernic is consider great quality to start.

    • neonlight on 16/11/2024 - 22:52

      RG35XX doesn't have joystick. Better quality though

  • morpheous on 16/11/2024 - 21:09

    Is this the one that can be used to connect to a tv via HDMI? Also, the price is showing as $23.37 USD? (not logged in, as a new user)

      No video output for this one

      • morpheous on 16/11/2024 - 21:23

        Thank you for confirming

  • sydney rider on 16/11/2024 - 21:18

    Any games could support multiple players over wifi network?

    Don't ask, just buy.

    Banger for the price.

    Does this have retro games preloaded? I’m looking for one that has Sega Master System games already on there… don’t want to have to download anything on it, what would be my best option?

    • augernised on 16/11/2024 - 22:27

      respectfully - learning how to do it. its very very easy. game+'rom' in google and you're off to the races

    Expired? I'm seeing $48.99.
    Must be a new accounts only thing.
    I see the deal price before signing in, but it more than doubles after signing in

  • CrashOveride on 16/11/2024 - 21:59

    What is the battery life like on these?

  • Gamedeals on 16/11/2024 - 22:02

    Probably a stupid question but up to what console does it play games? Can it play N64 and PS1 games?

    • Nzgm on 16/11/2024 - 22:09
      +1

      I've been playing symphony of the night recently so yes for PS1, and like 95% yes for n64 (people report it can lag a little, I haven't tried)

    • anthonyw on 16/11/2024 - 22:14

      PS1 is pretty good. N64 struggles, some games are playable but many struggle. If N64 was the main reason for getting one I wouldn’t get this.

  • furiousgeorge on 16/11/2024 - 22:05

    Had mine for ages and still running the card it came with no dramas.

  • Deadalready on 16/11/2024 - 22:07

    Ultra dumb question… what games does this run? Do I download old SNES, Megadrive games or is this able to do PS1, PS2, N64 or later games?

    • anthonyw on 16/11/2024 - 22:16

      Checkout this, PS1 and under but gives more of an explanation. This device is tier 1 in the article

        That's a great link. Thanks for sharing. Feels like a whole new world of gaming just opened up to me haha.

        • anthonyw on 16/11/2024 - 22:40

          Haha yep. I got one of these to see how it all worked (was cheap so not too much risk) then jumped straight to a steam deck. It’s been great to play some of the old games I bought and never got round to playing originally.

          I think people end up buying cheap and then less cheap and less cheap again ending up with many devices they hardly use though…

          • ihfree on 16/11/2024 - 22:48

            @anthonyw: Ha! I sold one of these in part justify buying a Steam Deck.

            I've ended up buying two more of these handhelds - they're pretty good for when you want a more portable/pocketable device.

          • Gamedeals on 16/11/2024 - 22:54

            @anthonyw: I was hoping to get something under $50 (to put on my Christmas list) that can play PSP games but even if I can just play some Schmups like R-type and Gradius. Maybe some Final Fantasy and then also some Pokemon. That's incredible value for the price of a meal.

  • Mortgagetightass on 16/11/2024 - 22:46

    of course I bought this for $42 last night lol
