That being said, I completely agree with you on the ergonomics including the position of the start and select button.

Something about this device really calls to me. It covers all the main bases, big screen, solid construction, good form factor and size, good battery. It's powerful enough to cover PSP/N64/Dreamcast, pushing beyond retro products where the analogue sticks become useful. The size of the screen suits PSP and GBA really well, which are peak portable devices. Anything GC/PS2 or beyond (i.e. switch) can be streamed from a PC. And it all comes in at around $150 including shipping. The big question becomes if this is a better product than Odin Lite/Pro (or Loki in the future) for the money...? Is Gamecube and PS2 functionality worth paying twice the price?

I have a question! The retroid "community document " at 21:29 that keeps track of best settings for games- is there anything like this for linux based devices like anbernics for instance? (I have a 353ps and i sometimes struggle to figure out settings especially for psp and dreamcast.. i spend way too much time trying settings because i am a newbie at this)

Hey TechDweeb. I am looking for a retro handheld for me and my friend to battle each other in all the Pokemon games. Which do you recommend? this is for GBA and DS Pokemon games

Well, you'll definitely need wifi. I think this RP3, or even the older RP2+ would be a good choice. Of course if you already have cell phones you could use a telescopic controller like I showed in this video: kzitem.info/news/bejne/k6SDl4SvqmN3jHY .

a really cool video , i think there's a cheaper way to play psp , just buy a controller for your cellphone, if it can run ppsspp with ease for your preferences, i have the original psp but i prefer to play on my phone or my bigger screen on my gaming pc at maximum settings

Serious question. Is that your real voice?
@TechDweeb
Жыл бұрын
Sorta. I believe I have a condition called VPI (Velopharyngeal insufficiency) which is where your windpipe at the back of your throat condenses more than usual and it causes my voice to be more nasally than most people's. It was so prevalent when I was a kid that my nickname was The Dweeb when I was in gradeschool. I found out I could control the nasally-ness of my voice when I concentrate on the airflow at the back of my throat, and I basically trained myself to talk 'normal' as I became a teenager, and now my 'normal' voice has barely a hint of The Dweeb, I can talk like a normal guy all day, but The Dweeb has sort of become my alter ego and I can slip into that voice at will. And then for these videos I embellish it by acting extra dorky. 🤓

The biggest inconvenience is RP3 is Android 11, and have no rooted, so you can not adb push games to your sdcard, and RG353 is Android 11, it's rooted, so RG353 have not this issue

%98 people HATE the rp3. This guy and I are the only ones who actually likes it lol 😂 😔 only thing I disagree is that it's awesome the company added extra version of buttons and chips, NO other company would do such a thing. And no it won't bring the price down if it wasn't included, just like all other devices in the world.

Love the video dweeb. I want one. I see pricing as about 180 for the 3gb ram model. We have a lot in common, I too have been collecting some of these awesome Chinese handhelds. This one might be a bit complicated for me to figure out everything. I couldn’t do anything without the help of several guys on youtube like you. Thank you. I have a very small channel that I have fun with. Check it out if you have a moment. Finally, How do you feel about frozen pizza? Jack’s are good if you add a lil extra cheese!

It's not hard to figure out, you'll be fine. It's not nearly as complicated as lots of the custom firmware and stuff I did for my other devices. This one is android so it's all straightforward. And of course check out my Dig setup guide if you need a hand with that ;) kzitem.info/news/bejne/k6SDl4SvqmN3jHY Frozen pizza is a scam perpetuated by the freezer industry to sell you more freezers.

Not too different performance-wise. The main difference is the screen ratio. If you're planning on playing a lot of PSP or droid games then go for the RP3, if you're playing a lot of 4:3 games like N64 or PS1 or whatever then go for the 353m.
