I was planning on buying this in the next couple weeks or so. Now that I've seen your review, I've changed my mind. The UI looks similar to the PAP II, but the emulation is worse. Thanks Wicked. You saved me time, and money.
Maybe could add Batocera or Recalbox OS to this & hopefully everything would run better. Love the form factor of it & the buttons look great. Thinking of getting one for my mom, cause she loves old arcade games
I have bought an M9 Game Console and the micro SD card of 64 gb cannot be read. When i power up the console it appears INSERT GAME CARDS. Could you share a link or via wetransfer the contents of the microSD card?
I prefer the 6 button layout because that is what the arcade games had. When playing street fighter or KI on 8 button layout I always end up hitting the wrong buttons because of how close they are.
@@PsYcHoRaTurk some systems just dont feel right playing on arcade stick due to the button configs. I removed all systems from my mame cab that didnt originally use a controller that straigh 123 or 3 over 3 layout… such as snes got the axe and genesis stayed. So on so forth
15 years passed since i bought my first chinese mp3 (clone of an ipod apple)...and i am still amazed how much consistent are the chinese tech products in being unreiable and buggy. Look at the pandora consoles. They have a pretty stable software, they have consolidated manufactured practices in the hardware...they know well what is the minimum cpu power to decently run those console platforms...but they are only interested in making the emulation just playable. These products are not for fans of emulation but just for the casual young consumer that want just to play free videogames (that he doesn't know and he doesn't have played before) for few bucks.
Out of the blue its SD card seems to have a problem and it won't pass the initial "loading" screen. Is there a fix for this by accessing the SD on the PC? Can't find support anywhere. Thanks in advance Update: The TF seems to just have bricked. Can someone who has this console copy the content of their TF card and send it? I can't find the correct file structure for this anywhere and the product is unusable. It 's very frustrating that the manual doesn't provide contact details for the manufacturer.
Man that form factor is cool. I don't normally get interested in buying these things but I was thinking for a brief moment how nice it would be. Then you showcased the poor emulation. Too bad. Thanks for the video
I got mine two months ago, and I've been looking forward to seeing you try it. Normally I wait to see your reviews on these things, but this looked so cool I had to get it
Very good review. You seemed to be hopeful when you opened the box. And actually gave it a chance to do well. Even though it didn't. P.S. Try pressing the Select and L button at the same time to enter the system settings
I bought this console my self but after sometime for no reason the SD card decided to die. Can you share any more information like what type of Operating System or firmware is using or how to create manually an SD card to revive the console or reflash it with another firmware cause the joystick are really nice quality and responsive.?

Excuse me. The fire does not shine continuously even when the power is connected. The lights are blinking. What's the reason? It doesn't even connect. Connected to the game monitor.
Just like those many old pong consoles were you have to connect the second controller to the to main console,BUT what they actually should,ve done was to add extra weight to it to make them more stable during gameplay, I don’t know if the slowdown is caused by the emulator or the main chipset or a combination of both BUT it should run great with those 8bit classics with no input lag right?? If so then i consider it a must have,,,,if.
Can someone explain...why it seems designers of those.have never played arcade games. Why the stick is left and the buttons right??? Is was the opposite when we was playing arcades..... Right hand was handling the stick
can the main stick connect to the laptop? i tried the stick that has wire and it work but the main doesnt. we were gonna versus in tekken but the main doesnt connect
I'm guessing a lot of the stuff is sent in for review? either way, I love the channel too -- and it's saved me a LOT of money from Chinese stuff I don't have to buy to see how bad it is :D

Can you add games on these type of consoles? I want to add cpss1 and cps2 rom games. Also since this thing already have MAME, can I add more mame games?
I think it is very good machine but i would like to ask you if you can play tehkan world cup with 2 players because in other Pandora's box there was a problem with the movement and the setting of the second player, thanks you!!!
It is suggested that you consider buying your favorite buttons and balls, or even better remote control rods. You only need money and a screwdriver to refit some parts yourself.
@@pandorae-sportsbox thanks for replying to me! Very nice from you. However, I was asking for a different firmware or software on this console as the original one is awful.
Gotta say I don’t understand this market… Virtually every review Ive seen you do it appears the product could be majorly improved with so little effort. I keep watching for something I would buy, but ultimately they all have issues. It just seems to me the market is ripe for a take down - that someone could very easily create a unit the checks all your boxes and crushes the competition - without costing a whole lot more.
Of all these little emulation consoles, which do you find the best for PS1 games. I have the PS classic and it plays PS1 games really well, but am curious if there is better out there :)
Hello, how are you, my brother, I liked your content, and thank you, but I have a question in the Atari list. There is a game called ( River Raid). I hope you can help and thank you, your friend from Saudi Arabia
Hi. I'm a long time subscriber. I really need a favor from you. Could you please upload the micro sd contents do some website like file transfer. I don't need the roms, just the other files. I've lost my micro sd and I'm unable to use it anymore 😥. Please
When they poured the epoxy for the joystick knobs, you'd think they'd know how to vibrate and use a torch to remove bubbles. There are only 45 million videos on RUclips explaining it.
I must say ... you can clearly see they invested in some good / decent control panels. Only this needes some more juice to run highend stuff. They should use a S905X3 in it.. problem is would be give the price major bump up 😳
So when I look on Amazon n it’s the same console it has 4 listing of what BO 1-5 u need n I’m for sure u have the $59.99 package But I always go for the highest so that way what if they don’t maybe have the games if I go for BO 1,2,3, or 4 then I’m poor out of luck so I feel like buying the BO5 that’s like $149.99 + tax n all but least I’m geting that 15,000 games but what would really be really great n very awesome is if puting all n every system round the world n put it in a Pandora Box cuz I have this console I have that’s trash n not like pandora box just something else but if they really can make a pandora box n name it Pandora Box SX (Super Xtreme) even tho u work on a joystick or connect a PS’(s) or Xbox(s) controller to it n have urself those old time classic moments n enjoy it all but what if a company came onto ur page n read some comments be for sure if they read mine be good if they could make pandora box with a lot of consoles inside of it including arcade n pc games even tho we would spend inbetween $100-400 depending on how many fb or BO1-5 or if they make BO1-10 that be even perfect but sorry for my insane line of writing but just think of it thousands of gamers out there n they wana try something new

I'm considering buying a clear after market NES shell casing and put a raspberry pi 4 in it and make it into a custom, light up,retro gaming box.

If you are using a Monitor you can adjust aspect ratio via a Button or via Touch a TV the same just with the TV Setting menu 😉👍🏻

This is a cool device. I would just swap the little motherboard into something better and something that fits perfectly where you crew it down.
Facts. A Pi 4 would be nice.
I have this in my cart as we speak, I might have to rethink this one lol...
It could have a been a killer product with a little more power ! Thanks for this great review Wicked Man 👍.

Thanks for the video
7:38 Not powerful enough to run this game gunbird 2
Wish it was a little bit more powerful and had 8 buttons.
Do you have the original operating system that comes on the SD? could you share it?
I got mine two months ago, and I've been looking forward to seeing you try it. Normally I wait to see your reviews on these things, but this looked so cool I had to get it
does this have dreamcast ?
Can you add your own roms to this device? In particular arcade roms.
Good quality channel/review and system.
Can you use it as just a controller so we could use our own pc and emulators???
The best would be to plug the usb arcade controller to a raspberri pi 4 and play more games with more power !
wat een geluk dat je deze video vandaag post, want ik zat er net naar te kijken op Aliexpress en wilde hem aanschaffen. bedankt voor de video
hahaha.. dat is wel inderdaad toevallig 😳
Can we replace the board with raspberry as an upgrade?
They works great as controllers in Batocera, well worth the buy for 30 euro
What a shame. The ps1 stuttering is a deal breaker. Hopefully you can hack it to put in an android box or pi in there.
Do the joysticks have square, octagonal, or circular restrictor gates?

I bought one. It's still ok for $80.
It's gonna cost as much to make your own fight stick from scratch.
Could this be used to without the software ? Can it be connected to a pc or NVIDIA shield to use with my own games ?
can we use it as usb pc joyistick?
Mine doesnt even boot with an sd card in it. Stuck on loading. Tried another sd card, same result. Formatting issue?
Mine says please insert tf card how can i fix it please

HOW MANY GAMES???
Looks cool :)
It plays tekken 3?
Thanks for the review, mighty Wicked! Is there any chance to see a custom firmware on this device?
With this avalanche of products... changes are slim.
It is suggested that you consider buying your favorite buttons and balls, or even better remote control rods. You only need money and a screwdriver to refit some parts yourself.

Too bad is mediocre because it looks so cool. Good review and cool video Wicked!👍
How insert a new game in console
If you mean adding emulators it is not possible 😳
Shinobi?????
I'm in love already 😍
👍👍
Why did they put PS1 one, but only 6 buttons? That's going to immediately render some of the games unplayable.
No mk1 no deal 🙅♂️

Nope this is not you normal PB board inside.
You like quite stuff
