Good thing I found out how to download games on here now, because that was my only gripe. I was also seeing scan lines appear on the much older 2d games and once I figured out what shaders to use to make the graphics better, everything looked smooth. This really is a beast of a retro console.

❤ Instant buy for me! I pick it up today to try it out! Lots to configure with the controller, but I'm super stoked to have so many games accessible like this. 👌👌👌 Thanks tech dweeb! I ordered from their official website but I would have felt confident in using the AliExpress lisitng too. They are probably shipping from the same place in China. Mine took 15 days from the time of shipping. Add another 4 days for processing time. I LOVE PS2, DREAMCAST, N64, PS1, SATURN, and WII. I hope the sd card can take some games that way cuz I'd really like to expand on some of the libraries that are smaller.

@jordonfox3485 Месяц назад

@benc.5558 2 месяца назад

That's crazy that the controller is a Gamesir which is a pretty good brand, the hard drive is a Seagate which is an excellent brand, the software is actually well-configured, but they couldn't find thirty cents in the budget for a cheap plastic box to enclose the hard drive. That's, like, the exact opposite of where every other company chooses to cheap out versus spend a little money. Edit: Also, damn, they're selling this thing on AMAZON with a preloaded and preconfigured Snitch emulator? Even with virtually no games, that is incredibly ballsy. Nontendu is on the warpath chasing that golden Snitch right about now.

@NatureRosa 2 месяца назад

Ngl, when you put it like that, I can forgive the lack of HDD enclosure since on tech devices you (collective) tend to prefer quality to aesthetics o.o

@HerbJr316 2 месяца назад

You did a great review video here! I’m with you on the takeaway… it’s a roller coaster for sure. lol. But 80% of the games in the library I wanted to play on the PS2, GameCube, and Wii work just fine. The controllers work (specifically in android mode) and the android box remote helps out tremendously when I need to exit out of the dolphin emulated games. The only downside is I don’t know how to add games to the hard drive. Other than that… it’s pretty much a must buy for anyone that wants a plug and play.

Boy, that RK3588s is a beast ain't it. Rockchip did VERY good with that one. Though this is an android box, I think we can start to see some mid to high-end emulation devices with Linux using this SoC. Well, at least I'm ready for it. But I'm fine with Android too, I don't really mind the OS as long as it's preset for turning on and gaming

@anthonybalista7421 2 месяца назад

I had a pretty nice Launchbox setup that had just about every game I wanted on it, but my PC isn’t good anymore and the hard drive it was on doesn’t work well anymore either. This might just be the thing to buy to replace that, as I can’t see myself going through the process of setting it back up again. So a few questions. Does this thing work with OTHER controllers, and if so how hard are they to configure (thinking mainly for something like an off brand N64 controller for example) Can you check a few MAME games out for me and tell me if they’re on there/perform? Namely Killer Instinct 2 and Carnevil (speaking of which, is it setup so that a controller can function as a light gun?). That would heavily influence my decision personally. Did any systems need controller setup or was everything good to go right out of the box? How hard is it to add/remove things, change emulators if we want to etc? Lastly, is it in any way possible to add/change videos for the systems? Like I had some AMAZING videos for most of the main systems on these things that I used for Launchbox (check out the old Hyperpie video snaps and you’ll see what I mean). Final question off hand being could I hook this up to my TV and play on there? I assume so since it’s an actual box and the hard drive is separate but I just wanted to make sure. Thanks if you can answer!
