I just got an Anbernic 35xx out of pure curiosity and I don't have a gameboy anymore and wow! For such a cheap device it's incredible! I just want it to emulate gameboy and gameboy advance for now. My steamdeck can literally do everything else. Thank you for your guides throughout the years. You've been great!
I keep going from being happy for getting the Miyoo Mini+ instead and coming back to regretting not getting this one. The community around these devices is amazing.
I wouldn't worry too much. If the RG35XX is capable of running these emulators, the mini is technically able as well. So there is a chance these emulators will come to the mini one day. Plus the mini has some really cool native ports like Diablo and Mario 64 that run really well, so we will probably get more of those as well. Can't really go wrong with either device imo.
@@SirBrucie That is indeed the correct answer, tho i'm one of those that buys one for myself and then instead of buying the others I end up buying more for my friends as bday gifts and whatnot lol, so I can't justify spending more. Maybe next month :p
Ahoy, muOS dev here. You didn't cover how dang easy it is with the setup compared to the other CFWs which I find is a big highlight. 😅 Also in the changelog files I do state that HDMI and controllers are not working yet despite them being available. I'm glad to see that you did a review of it, pretty sure you're the first. Thanks again! I won't stop until I can get everything working nicely.
We have to be greatful for your (and others devs) work. It time consuming and hard work, and it definitely matters what you guys do. Thank you for putting in the hours and hopefully we all can enjoy the upcoming advances with muOS. 😊
I’ve had a RG35xx for a month now, followed your garlic os setup steps, and all I can say is that it’s badass🔥 Garlic Os 2.0 is going to change the game as well👏🏽 Awesome work as always
@quickdraw6503there’s like 2 ps1 games it struggles with and thats with the pre loaded roms. Install your own better roms and it plays ps1 games flawlessly.
@@Micchi- i think he showed some games not reaching the 60 fps with the koriki firmware when the other firmware like garlic can play the ps1 games fine.
@@Micchi-If you use psx format on many of the ps1 games it doesnt work that well, but if you use chd files they all run pretty much flawlessly (at least in garlic os)
I am not a gamer and am not really into this stuff. I just bought an RG35XX so I can relive some of the games from my childhood with my kids. I am on RUclips a lot I pay for RUclips premium and consume much of my media on it, I have to say this channel is stellar. I found myself watching 30 minute videos about things I didn’t think I cared about. Just incredible presentation and content and just over all very pleasant Thank you! You got a sub from me!
The fact Koriki read the same GarlicOS is amazing: you can put on the more appropriate OS card depending on the system you want to play, without messing around with game files. Amazing! I don't own any RG35xx, only because I prefer horizontal designs, but the possibilities opened by custom firmwares make this device really interesting, maybe more than Miyoo Mini at this stage.
Technology will never cease to amaze me. It's absolutely incredible that they've managed to get PSP, DC, and N64 to the states where they are on something that a person such as myself would have pictured bursting into flames if it even attempted to load a splash screen. So yeah. I'm sticking with GarlicOS for now but as these other OSs become more refined, I may find myself flashing another SD card just to try them out if not make the switch altogether.
@@radiogonzo94 ok mine has arrived so i can actually answer that, it handles dual screens by being able to bind a button to change layout or swap screens performance has some stutters but its very much playable, fast forward is available but its not THAT fast, on account of there not being a huge amount of overhead. that being said 200-300% speed up when you disable sound is perfectly serviceable for level grinding in pokemon especially if you turn of battle anims
@@neilbasuracing Thanks! That’s pretty helpful. Not sure if I like the inconvenience of swapping the screens and having both displayed on 3.5 inches sounds way too small, but it’s nice to know there’s the option to have HGSS playable on one of these smaller handhelds. Now back to the struggle of deciding between this or the MM+ still. If the Anber had WiFi so I could conveniently sync saves and still have HDMI it’d win in a heartbeat for me.
God bless your face, Russ, for the attention and effort to produce valuable content for retro gaming enthusiasts. I love my RG35XX and installed every version of GarlicOS and tried to help on Reddit, but it’s gotten a bit overwhelming to me. Highly interested in this video.
After watching your videos, I bought the Miyoo Mini+ at the start of August... and it's been amazing. I've played through half of FF6 (first time playing through) and jumped into a ton of nostalgic PS1 games. Running OnionOS and it's been solid. These things are amazing, big thanks to the devs in the community for pushing them further!
What an awesome showcase of the amazing work of the community! While not really related, I wish that these kinds of custom OS options would find their way to the hacked Switch community. I hacked my Switch solely for the emulation potential, and I’d love to have a sort of dual boot solution-an emulation centric OS like Batocera and then the Switch OS for Switch games.
Great video! I also noticed you were talking about PS1 at the 9:58 mark but had "SNES" written there during gameplay. This also stays on the Crash Bandicoot racing section as well.
Great video Russell. I love my RG35XX and have been tracking the OS situation just as you have. Loved MINUI but settled on Garlic. Looking forward to seeing what the future brings...
Awesome to see you come back to the RG35XX, it’s such an amazing little handheld altogether. Would love to see some guides for installing these other CFWs! 🙃 The coolest thing is that you don’t even need to give anything up, just spend a very small amount of money on another SD card, or maybe you have one lying around, try out one of these other CFWs without losing anything.
Did you buy from the official anbernic store? Thinking of picking one up for myself as well, and having it come with garlic out the box is really swaying me for my next paycheck.
Some notes: - Turn on Threaded Video in the PSX RetroArch settings of Koriki to improve performance - I mislabeled the PSX games as SNES in the captions, whoopsie - Koriki is also available on the Miyoo Mini: github.com/Rparadise-Team/Koriki
Nifty, thanks for this update. Love this thing, even made custom rear L1/L2/R1/R2 3D printable buttons that double sided tape onto the existing ones for more comfort, they're on CuIts3D for those interested.
Small mistake: You're showing off "Old Towers" from within Batocera but the headline says "Koriki". :) Edit: And another one => The PS games in Koriki say "SNES" in the headline.
Is it still true that MinUI doesn't support as many systems as GarlicOS? Because it looks really nice but I really wanna play all the obscure stuff in my library.
Thank you for keeping us in the loop for somewhat older devices, I own this and the RG300x for my 8/16 bit fix cause I feel the smaller screens natively make them look good and they don't need analogue input. Stuffing around with firmware is also a fresh take on an older device though I couldn't get Adam running on the 300x for some reason, might give it another go
@@TheRed02151 this device was released a year ago. When looking at CPU and review cycles for these devices then yes, one would consider it a 'somewhat older device' ... lol
Unlocked GPU is exciting for me because it makes Shaders a possibility, and it's what I am waiting for. I hope one of these vertical "gameboy style" devices with shader capability comes out eventually. I'd kill for a miyoo with shaders in particular.
Well, with onionOs there are loads of overlay options that act as shaders. Some are very well made and I'm really enjoying them! They're not real shaders, but they're fun to thinker with nonetheless!
Been really enjoying Koriki. Because the gpu is unlocked you can use interpolation shaders to fix the uneven scaling, with almost no performance impact. The default retroarch config also has threaded video off, likely why PS1 didn't perform that well? The biggest negative for me right now is the lack of USB controller support with koriki, which makes the hdmi output not as useful.
I really just wish it had wifi for Retroachievements, this device would be perfect if they did that. I got a Miyoo Mini plus, and the usb-c port broke off super easily after like 3 charges. 😢 I bought it from a drop shipper who is going to look into getting me a replacement part but I'm not holding my breath. I ended up getting an RG353PS and I am in love with this device, so comfortable and smooth with ArkOS!
That’s really interesting! How do you find it handles 64? I don’t think I have any reason to upgrade past this device other than a weird urge to play N64 wrestling games lol
@@Jimmytwofifty the rg353ps seems to handle 64 okay, not perfect but decent. Some games work perfect, others have some weird graphical glitches or frame drops. There are definitely better options if you want a 64 focused system, most android devices tend to handle 64 better from what I have seen
Would you be willing to do a guide on how to use retroarch for this device? I’d like to tweak stuff but I honestly have no idea what I’m doing and feel like im fumbling around lol.
We have n64 growing up but only have two games on it, Snowboard kids and 007 Golden eye. I been finding ways to play Snowboard kids again. Thank you for this.
Thanks for this video Russ. I have heard of these custom firmwares from Reddit and they have intrigued me. Like you I think I'm going to stick with garlic OS. I finally got it where I want it and with apps like garlic press for windows it makes it easy to add games and artwork.
Would love to play Paper Mario on my 35xx but i just dont think its worth it to move from Garlic Os unfortunately - if itgets streamlined then its looking like a viable option
That's virtually identifcal to the Gameboy/Color. Very Nostalgic. I'll be ready with my wallet for Anbernic once they make the virtually identical Gameboy Advanced - that screen dimension and the sleek design concept being key. Thank you Russ
I really love the RG35XX, I like the feel of the device a whole lot better than the Miyoo Mini Plus, and the display is miles better than the Miyoo Mini Plus in my opinion. The contrast, viewing angles and saturation are nicer. An RG35XX with wifi, for file transfers and RetroAchievements, would be a pretty ideal device for me
I have an RG25XX running Garlic OS but not only for the features you mentioned but also the community support around it. There are ports of games like Diablo and Doom for GarlicOS that are running great and I'm not sure they are available on MinUI.
Hey Russ! So happy to see more RG35XX content! Any chance you would want to share any of your favorite Pico 8 games you play on RG35XX? I’m pretty intimidated by the amount of games and after Celeste I don’t know where to start.
Honestly i bought three for my kids... I love how personal you can get with garlic os but on one of my kids systems i put koriki on. Honestly installing koriki was 10 times easier than navigating garlic os (don't even get me started on box art on garlic os it's a nightmare). On koriki i put my screenscraper image mixes where they needed to be and they just work no image magick or adjusting they just go where they are supposed to. So in my opinion i love koriki for the ease of installation and user interface, but garlic wins with the ease of launching recently played games
Would have liked to see how Nintendo DS emulation works under Koriki. I saw some videos on Reddit and RUclips, and was surprised it wasn't included in your video.
I'm holding out for the plus. Cause it will have better triggers. And hopefully metal shell option. But this is certainly a great console for those who don't already own similar.
@@rettenthetetlen8759 Anbernic has a habit of re-releasing their more popular handhelds with a metal shell option, like the RG351MP did. Not sure if that'll happen with the RG35XX, though, considering that metal shells are relatively expensive and arguably the biggest draw of the device is its price.
@@rettenthetetlen8759 Anbernic is making a 35xx Plus model that will have improved triggers, better performance, bigger battery, and possibly a metal shell option.
Do MinUI and GarlicOS have/support the same file structure for the second card? Would be nice if you could switch between the Operating Systems by swapping card 1, while still being able to use the same roms and saves on card 2.
My Little advice Is to make a tutorial about how to manage koriki firmware. I mean ports, box arts etc.. because there Is almost Nothing on web about It. Great Channel anyway 😊
Ever get screen tearing with yours? i hear that a lot. it's a shame i really liked the little thing. doesn't do it when i plug it thru the HDMI. doesn't matter neither if i have the original firmware or garlic os. kinda hesitating from buying other things from them. btw, i played around with the ribbon cable and it had no effect. i find it hard to believe thats the problem. almost just looks like a faulty screen. heard anything about it?
I used to have an RG351M (lost it) and I absolutely loved it. I played a lot of PS1 games on it, many vintage 2D games, and even PSP on it. The form factor was just perfect, it fit in my pocket without being annoying. I've thought about getting another, however I feel like maybe there are better options from Anbernic. It is really confusing seeing as there are so many options out there, so I ask, what is the best replacement/upgrade for the 351M? I'd prefer something that could do PSP better, and maybe run PS2 as well.
I had a major issue with my device, the start and select buttons getting stuck. I had to open it up and use electrical tape to try ensure the membrane wouldn’t get stuck. Just fyi for anyone looking to buy
I have one of the Anbernics which looks like this but has one analogue stick. Not sure the exact model number but all I want to do now is run Min UI on it.
I use Garlic OS, I think it’s great. I’d love to play some of the old N64 wrestling games, but without an analog stick and at least two more buttons I don’t see how anyone could play them on this device anyway…
I really really hope they pick up batocera for de 35xx again. I just love the emulation station UI. And the ability to load video snaps. Most of the times video snaps give you a better idea of what the game is about instead of a box cover or snap shot. I now have batocera setup to show the box art and after a couple seconds it shows the video snaps. With the wheel showing the games logo. The downside is. It has some serious issues with loading and playing some roms for some systems. Sometimes it loads roms right away and other times it needs a couple of tries or even a reboot. Lot of mame games and neo geo simply won't work. The ultimate software is yet to be released.
I personally think they're equal and depends what you really want. Having N64, PSP and DS on the Anbernic is a plus rather than a selling point, because the performance on those systems is not the best and it comes with other issues as shown in this video. If you want a slightly bigger device with HDMI out, RTC and better screen and build quality get this one. If you want WiFi, a more robust OS (Onios is easier to install and has more functions than Garlic), more battery life and better feeling D-Pad, get the Miyoo.
I saw your video about the Miyoo Mini Plus having wifi multi-player, can this do the same? Both look similar but Anbernic appears to have the better build.
Hi, I just ordered an Anbernic RG405M for mainly playing N64 games that i played as a kid, but after seeing this video i started to doubt if i made the right choice and if i should have gone for this one, on which one you have the best gaming expierience, what do you recommend?
I just got an Anbernic 35xx out of pure curiosity and I don't have a gameboy anymore and wow! For such a cheap device it's incredible! I just want it to emulate gameboy and gameboy advance for now.

I keep going from being happy for getting the Miyoo Mini+ instead and coming back to regretting not getting this one. The community around these devices is amazing.
You can play with other devices with MM+ which is huge. I’ve tested it out and it works great
Why not both?

Garlic OS is perfect to me and honestly I think it's the most user-friendly to set up for somebody who's not emulation savvy and hand off the device
Amazing how far this can be pushed, it even plays DS and PSP decently

On koriki i put my screenscraper image mixes where they needed to be and they just work no image magick or adjusting they just go where they are supposed to. So in my opinion i love koriki for the ease of installation and user interface, but garlic wins with the ease of launching recently played games
MinUI is where it’s at for me. Love it!
Would have liked to see how Nintendo DS emulation works under Koriki. I saw some videos on Reddit and RUclips, and was surprised it wasn't included in your video.
I'm excited to see the new RG35XX Plus' capabilities with N64 and PSP when CFW's catchup
I don’t even have one of these yet here I am lol, great videos
when playing bloody roar 2 like that 9:58 it almost looks like bullet proof scenes from an action-movie^^
i use koriki for months.. its really nice
I'm holding out for the plus. Cause it will have better triggers. And hopefully metal shell option. But this is certainly a great console for those who don't already own similar.
+?
@@rettenthetetlen8759 Anbernic has a habit of re-releasing their more popular handhelds with a metal shell option, like the RG351MP did. Not sure if that'll happen with the RG35XX, though, considering that metal shells are relatively expensive and arguably the biggest draw of the device is its price.
@@rettenthetetlen8759 Anbernic is making a 35xx Plus model that will have improved triggers, better performance, bigger battery, and possibly a metal shell option.
Do MinUI and GarlicOS have/support the same file structure for the second card? Would be nice if you could switch between the Operating Systems by swapping card 1, while still being able to use the same roms and saves on card 2.
My Little advice Is to make a tutorial about how to manage koriki firmware. I mean ports, box arts etc.. because there Is almost Nothing on web about It.
Great Channel anyway 😊
Ever get screen tearing with yours? i hear that a lot. it's a shame i really liked the little thing. doesn't do it when i plug it thru the HDMI. doesn't matter neither if i have the original firmware or garlic os.
kinda hesitating from buying other things from them. btw, i played around with the ribbon cable and it had no effect. i find it hard to believe thats the problem. almost just looks like a faulty screen. heard anything about it?
Aloha Russ! Just wanted to check: What BIOS are you using for the N64 games? I want to run it as smooth as you. Mahalo!
I used to have an RG351M (lost it) and I absolutely loved it. I played a lot of PS1 games on it, many vintage 2D games, and even PSP on it. The form factor was just perfect, it fit in my pocket without being annoying. I've thought about getting another, however I feel like maybe there are better options from Anbernic. It is really confusing seeing as there are so many options out there, so I ask, what is the best replacement/upgrade for the 351M? I'd prefer something that could do PSP better, and maybe run PS2 as well.
What a beast! $50 handheld with somewhat decently for playing psp rpg games
I had a major issue with my device, the start and select buttons getting stuck.
I had to open it up and use electrical tape to try ensure the membrane wouldn’t get stuck. Just fyi for anyone looking to buy
they used the rg350 case for the new rg35xx H even the dual stereo speakers
I have one of the Anbernics which looks like this but has one analogue stick. Not sure the exact model number but all I want to do now is run Min UI on it.
Did you try activating multi thread in the retroarch options for PS1? That's fixed the slowdowns in Garlic OS for me.
At first i hated Garlic OSbut once i used the Anker Card reader to flash it onto the SD card i think its great.
Hi Russ, which version of Min Ui were you using in this video? The latest one has hdmi support removed unfortunately.
I use Garlic OS, I think it’s great.
I’d love to play some of the old N64 wrestling games, but without an analog stick and at least two more buttons I don’t see how anyone could play them on this device anyway…
I hope the community figures out how to do the N64 and PSP emulators on the Miyoo Mini as well
I have a RG35XX. I use Garlic Os. I just love it. I hope for more updates on it eventually so we can see some love for N64 etc.
I have an Odin Lite but I'm thinking of picking up either this or the Miyoo Mini Plus just to have a smaller handheld for 16/32bit and lower.
Nice video, thanks.
MiniUI doesn't run CPS1 and CPS2 arcade games?
10:03 the Bloody Roar 2 segments on Koriki show SNES rather than PS1 in the info text in the top left corner
Yes, thank you for pointing it out. I made note of it in my pinned comment, sorry about that.
@@RetroGameCorps oh, I should have read that, sorry for not noticing :)
@@Krypto84 it’s all good, sorry for making the error in the first place!
Dumb question for you: When you start up a game, does it actually play the startup sound for that particular console/handheld?
hey mate. interesting video! I was wondering if there's a way to play Amiga 500 Roms with the original OS? can you help? thanks 👍🏻
I really really hope they pick up batocera for de 35xx again. I just love the emulation station UI. And the ability to load video snaps. Most of the times video snaps give you a better idea of what the game is about instead of a box cover or snap shot. I now have batocera setup to show the box art and after a couple seconds it shows the video snaps. With the wheel showing the games logo.
The downside is. It has some serious issues with loading and playing some roms for some systems.
Sometimes it loads roms right away and other times it needs a couple of tries or even a reboot. Lot of mame games and neo geo simply won't work.
The ultimate software is yet to be released.
What’s the best screen tv size and resolution? 22”? 720p? I love koriki!
did you turn on threaded video? Koriki runs bloody roar just fine here on the rg35xx
Koriki being able to play Patapon games without a hiccup is a true big sell for me!
so, would you say that this is a better choice overall than the miyoo mini plus now, with the new CFW updates?
No
I personally think they're equal and depends what you really want. Having N64, PSP and DS on the Anbernic is a plus rather than a selling point, because the performance on those systems is not the best and it comes with other issues as shown in this video.
If you want a slightly bigger device with HDMI out, RTC and better screen and build quality get this one. If you want WiFi, a more robust OS (Onios is easier to install and has more functions than Garlic), more battery life and better feeling D-Pad, get the Miyoo.
This is probably a dumb question, apologies in advance. I just purchased a RG353VS. This is all compatible with that model, correct?
I miss the old intro song
I feel like something passed away. I wish it would come back.
I saw your video about the Miyoo Mini Plus having wifi multi-player, can this do the same? Both look similar but Anbernic appears to have the better build.
Hi, I just ordered an Anbernic RG405M for mainly playing N64 games that i played as a kid, but after seeing this video i started to doubt if i made the right choice and if i should have gone for this one, on which one you have the best gaming expierience, what do you recommend?
405m is better in every way 😂
@@Hackvizethis is also $150 less
