Agree that setting the 4:3 systems to 8:7 is the secret sauce with this baby. The D-pad is not the greatest and the biggest flaw is the battery/charging. However at that point you have to consider the low price you paid, it's great value.

You got a new follower! I knew most of these tips, but I loved the part about capturing screenshots of special moments and keeping that excitement and nostalgia going! I just beat Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on the NES for the first time last night and definitely took a few screenshots of the Technodrome and Shredder fights! Also, thanks for the All Games search tip!

Good video! The RGB30 seems really cool! It is wild that you can even scrape the instruction manuals! It is so awesome that you can have hundreds of classic games right at your fingertips now! I would have thought I had died and gone to heaven if this device existed growing up in the '90s! 😅

This device is good but there are so many mistakes made in the build, so many settings are out and if you dont know what you're doing then trying to change a setting can be difficult, the battery is an issue aswell, ive noticed and update can cause a problem with the device by stopping it from charge whilst its off, I have two of these and I've never experienced problems like this before and it can be very time consuming trying to get them working how you want them to work

8:7 actually UNstreches SNES. (Genesis is slightly different I think). SNES games were made in 8:7, for 4:3 displays. They do not have square pixels, they're rectangular. For a CRT, that's perfect, because they considered all that when they design the visuals - but for an LCD screen, 8:7 is definitely better for SNES, because you can actually scale it properly. Try it out.

I realized this after when looking at a chart of retro system aspect ratios. Still 4:3 systems will benefit from 8:7 even if slightly stretched the image is not compromised

Good tip with that 8:7/4:3 but you mentioned NES and SNES and if I'm not mistaken, they are already at 8:7(?) which means you could push them to 1:1 for full screen. But this does work well for 4:3 to get a larger display without that stretched look.

I think the RGB30 is a vastly misunderstood device. In terms of displaying games up to the 16 bits era, I would say that it is the better device by far. Because of the 1:1 display, it’s better than anything else for playing Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Gear, Neo Geo Pocket, Nintendo NES and SNES. For anything else, it performs at least on par with, let’s say, a Miyoo mini plus. For other 4:3 systems I would not recommend the 8:7 ratio. It works well with the NES and SNES because these two systems, I believe, are outputting natively at the 8:7 ratio. My understanding is that a lot of games look perfect at 8:7 because a the time the developers didn’t bother to correct the image to fit well on a 4:3 TV. There are some exceptions though, I need to double check but I believe Chrono Trigger developers accounted for the 8:7 output to 4:3 display by “deforming” the image at the source to fit perfectly on a 4:3 TV. In fact, up to 16 bits, I only use two devices: the RGB 30 for most systems and the RG ARC for everything SEGA and Neogeo (except Game Gear and Neogeo Pocket obviously) Those are considered niche devices, I personally think they are now the gold standard.

For a beginner, Ide recommend Miyoo Mini Plus with Onion OS. RGB30 is great in a lot of ways but youde really need to set it up yourself to get the most out of it.

Hi, just curious how you set that 8 x 7 aspect ratio for just the specific cores you want and how do you save them. Do you go to load configuration and then save NEW? I tried to follow and I can get it to 8 x 7 going into the video tab. But how save for each system? Thanks so much and great content!!
@JaviPlayRetro
7 ай бұрын
Okay, so you can do it outside the retroarch. Go into a specific system folder you want to change. Press Select and scroll all the way down to advance system options. Inside, you will find game aspect ratio settings for that specific system. It's the second option. Then repeat for all 4:3 systems. Hope this helps! Happy Gaming!!
