Does it come with built in games and if so how many? As I have a powkiddy RGB20S version witch came with untold games pre installed from all types of systems like PSP, PS, Capcom 1, 2, 3, Mame, Atari, Nintendo 64, Gameboy, DS, Sega etc. etc. Or do you need to put them on yourself? and finally it asks if I want a 64GB - 128GB memory card, Apart from more storage does the memory card difference mean more pre-loaded games?

Sadly no but one thing you can do is take that sd card and copy them games to a pc and then you will always have them, get a new sd card format the sd card on the x28 then take out that sd card and copy them games and bios to the new formatted sd card and then you are good to go.

to be honest with you they are the same chip set and performance but I think the Powkiddy just beats it, but the screens are both great I would say the 505 is better colours as it’s an OLED, but the colours are still popping on the x28 and the resolution is much better on the x28 hope that helps

Thanks great video. It is a good price but I have a RP2 + which I still use on trips and upscaled ps1 games and below.. If you are showcasing game cube and PS2 can you do village section in Resident evil 4? The RP2+ does handle it ok but goes down to 15fps. I have the steam deck as well and the FC3000 that you recommended about a year and a half ago for gameboy and gamegear games. I would say if the price drops when new handhelds come out with a better chip it may be worth me picking up this then. Look forward for the other videos to come out on this though.
