    As a girl that likes cute-looking tech this is the first emulation handheld that has truly caught my eye, and the fact that it’s easy to use right out of the box is also awesome. If they ever make a second version of this handheld I’ll get it, just cause I never like getting version one of ANYTHING 😅

    • @Worldwave

      That's smart. I feel you on the cute factor for sure, I'm very tempted. The next iteration of this specific design is either coming in about 3 months or will never show up again, and the concept itself will probably be deprecated by a product that will be announced by Anbernic within the next month. It's a very strange industry lol.

      It might be worth just waiting to see if the later units down the line have the screen bleed thing all sorted out? These handheld companies usually produce their devices in batches with fixes and other small tweaks being added to each batch. If they can fix it in later batches it's probably worth getting. They make new handhelds all the time though so might bring out a V2 in a year or so? Then again they've been making handhelds for years so no real reason to hold off on this aside from the screen bleed issue being fixed!

    What was happening with SNES games initially there was probably the emulator defaulting to the SNES' internal 8:7 aspect ratio. Many people don't know this, but the Super Nintendo was not actually natively 4:3, instead, it used a taller, almost square 8:7 aspect ratio that gets squished by 4:3 displays. So, if you want don't want as much letterboxing and a bigger display size, you can probably leave the aspect ratio as is because it's not actually stretched.

    • @dgevert

      @@R1SKbreaker I think a link to the past is actually a perfect example of why it WAS designed for 4:3 regardless of the circle test. and that any imperfect circles are only that way as a result of the mathematical calculations for circles for whatever tool was used. 4:3 monitors were what was used with the system. And also what they used when they tested these games. They put more effort on the title screen because it was the title screen was up front and a LttP was an early title. Oblong circles all over the games just means that they weren't bothered to adjust the software to account for the internal 8:7 resolution. Which some companies and games did do later on -- or were just drawn by hand.

    We need an Android flip console with a large 4:3 screen, like 7 inches, with a mini version of 6 perhaps. 7 inches in 4:3, for example, allows a 6.5 inch 16:9, while a 7 inch 16:9 screen only allows 5.7 in 4:3. Another point is that a 4:3 flip allows for a smaller size, in this 7 inch example it would only need approximately 16cm, it still fits in your pocket... if it is a 6 inch version then around 14cm. The idea of ​​the flip does not exclude the desire for horizontal consoles with larger 4:3 screens, just the flip allows for a much larger screen without increasing to the sides, in addition to better ergonomics.

    1:1 screens are the way to go for retro handhelds, it just makes so much sense for multi-system devices, when I finally see a handheld with an OLED 6 inch 1:1 display, I'll jump on it, 6 inches would mean nice real-estate sizes for pretty much any aspect, even stacked DS/3DS displays, I suppose the ultimate handheld would consist of a 7-8 inch 1:1 SAMOLED with up to 120Hz, 500+ PPI, an FPGA+ARM hybrid SoC plus a healthy pool of SRAM & SDRAM, a good Wolfson DAC & HP-AMP (32ohm), a fat 5watt single speaker (much better than dual 2watt speakers), and hall effect analogies/triggers, micro-switch buttons and bumpers, and a hybrid 4/8-Way switchable D-Pad (toggle between rollable 8-way mode & 4-way micro-switch mode), the FPGA would be for low latency systems up to 5th gen, the ARM for everything else, the FPGA can be used as an I/O processor when using the ARM CPU, for audio processing and video DAC duties including scaling and shaders/scanlines/etc, that would be the crem'da'la'crem handheld, I'd use Replay OS using the FPGA for really accurate CRT emulation in conjunction with DynaRes 2.0.

    The design gives me Gizmondo vibes, I like it. The screen is a pretty useful aspect ratio and the performance is pretty good, definitely a good different in this case.

    For SNES, try using a 'sharp-bilinear-simple' shader to fill out the whole screen in 4:3. It will give you balanced pixels with only a slight reduction in sharpness.

    Hey they fixed the light bleed issue on his unit. That’s kinda scummy. If you’re sending a unit for RUclipsrs to advertise for you it should be the actual product you’re selling. Not a better product that you aren’t selling but looks mostly the same. I don’t even care about the light bleed That much, it’s just the principle of the thing.

    Horrible aspect ratio, as you said not for everyone. 4 by 3 is still the best for that "level" of retro games. Maybe if you throw PS2, Wii and Switch games into the mix, 16 by 9 or 16:10 would be better.

    Hey bob for the analogue triggers, when you showed the screen that allowed you to switch from Ns and Xbox style controls I saw that there was a separate part for triggers. Since the switch doesn’t use analogue triggers and xbox does, maybe try opting in for the xbox trigger option? Idk i don’t have the device just my guess to get analog support

    I honestly don't get 4:3 (or 4:4 in this case) aspect ratios, outside of cost cutting, you can put blackbars in a 16:9 and you don lose resolution, while doing the opposite gives you an smaller and much worse picture.

      There are far more reto games in 4:3 than 16x9 though. Like more by a factor of like.....2000x at least. So if you are primarily playing older retro games it starts making more sense.
