Really wish the manufacturers of these all in one retro consoles could streamline their files to eliminate the clutter of multiple versions of the same game. Thanks for the great honest review.
If you want something like that, you would be better off rolling your own roms. I use the no intro set for each console that doesn't contain hacks or duplicates.
Check out my builds for Umbrella Arcades. They use a faster processor than these, and the duplicates have been removed. It can run a good number of PS2 and GC titles, Sega Model 3, and some Xbox games.
Ive been looking for something small like this to put into my arcade for quite a while. retro pi is stupid expensive and i think that this little guy is the perfect match! thank you!
Great review. I placed an order after I watched this review. My Pie 4 can't handle some of the games like this device so out with the old and in with the new lol.
I'm getting this mostly because of the games yyeah. But now definitely because I just saw guardian heroes. Always had n still have PlayStation. But I remember seeing that game in a magazine I literally loved just looking at those 4 pages. The graphics the characters I always wanted to play it as a kid. And soon enough I will thanks to you.
Hello! Quick question, I just updated my Super Console X2 to the latest software (4.6) build. Unfortunately, after the update, the Playstation games are no longer working. Also, the tv controller all of a sudden is not working. Would you guys know any fix? Thank you in advance.
I know you review a lot of emulators, and I own none. Do you have a favorite that’s your go to? Looking to only buy one and looking for your favorite one to look into. Thanks!
@@cooltoy Bro thank you!!! Bro this is so in my Amazon cart!!! So I actually need to use the micro us reader for sd card. The card doest go directly into the console??
I'm thinking about getting a new retro console now I already have super console pro x which is k. what do you suggest I get and which retro console is your favorite? I want one that play pretty much every thing to retro to Xbox 360 at lest ps2. Nice video you got another sub
if you are wanting solid emulation for PS2 and Xbox 360 then you are better off getting an old office desktop PC and using that instead of these android boxes. I typically use Dell Optiplex SFF PCs for emulation builds and can find them commonly for around $120-150
Awesome review, thanks mate! By the way, I just got mine and I'm struggling to have Netflix, HBO Plus, and etc, installed on Android run. Although I was able to get Amazon Prime Video installed, the other applications seem "not compatible" with this console. I wonder if anyone else has faced/found a workaround to get them working?
I just got one of these for Christmas and have been unable to get it to boot to anything other than the Android screen. How do you get it to switch to EmuElec? Thanks for your time.
Hold down the “A” button and the option menu will come up. There you can change emulators and a few other things. Adding it to the favorites is in that menu.
OMG - this is so close to a buy for me, but it’s WAY too clunky. Why adapters for SD cards and adapters for 4 players? Just streamline it with a built-in micro SD slot and 4 USB ports for 4 player games, and this thing would be an instant purchase.
I Have A Raspberry Pi 3 Would Like To Fully Update & Add All The Games I'm Missing & Would Like Colecovision Added It's Not On Retropie , Can I Play Playstation 2?
Would I be able to transfer the content of the SD card onto a powerful android phone such as the remagic 8 pro and be able to play the games right away? Like would this emulator just run?
I'm playing around with this X2 and I can't figure out two things: how to exit a game and go to the main menu, and how to update the UX. My main menu does not look like yours at all. Also, I think it would be cool to see how you switch between game mode and TV mode.
I had the same problem trying to exit a game and fooled around and found out if you press Select and Start at the same time, it goes back to main menu....hope this helps
Disappointed. The wireless control has half second delay. Hard to play game like mario or any jump games. Please le us know if any other wireless controllers that will work with this console. Want to buy couple.
@@cooltoy mostly concerned with arcade games. I have a cab and monitor to use, just not sure which of these I should pair with them for the best arcade experience. Thanks for all the great content Doug!
the price prolly wouldve shot through the roof if they tried to add the dongle worth of tech in that case. wouldve needed newer and more expensive parts.
It's hard to make a recommendation without knowing what a person's budget might be, and what systems they have the biggest preference for playing. Super Console X King so far has been my favorite device, but depending on where you buy it from, the preloaded SD card may or may not be configured well and thus may require manually adjustments to emulators as well.
Good afternoon if you are reading this a problem has been happening to me with the console I enter a game I know the new super mario bros ds or any game everything is fine but the control does not respond it does nothing I don't know if you know anything the console I bought on amazon because my parents don't buy on aliexpress and don't know that's why this error happens to me thanks for reading and If my English is bad it's because I'm using Google Translate thanks
GREAT CHANNEL,-Will sub n bell - but someone / anyone. Help! Is it worth getting this 256gb version, when I'm likely NOT going to play entire SYSTEMS worth of games? Can I delete systems Ex: Wonderswan, or Vectrex, or individual games that are duplicated so bad? I feel like 128GB is plenty for me. ((C64, Intellivision-though most say the controls on INTV are wonky due to original design being so weird) plus PS1, Orig Nintendo and maybe some Super Nintendo? And I can add ROMS to each? Can I bump up PS1 to 4k anywhere? I've seen some that can I think.. I've been on the hunt and researching for a month already! WOW THIS GOT LONG! SORRY!
Can someone recommend a good instriuction video on how to use emulec with the controller. I did not connect a keyboard, I can navigatte around but for the live of me i can not launch a game ex pac man on the atari 800 is it A or B or X or Start or Select or trigger ... all that seems to happen is i navigate the menu ... it seems useless to me
Depends on what n64 emulator their using...I believe Mupen64-Parallel n64 is the best emulator for 64...this console is a waste of money. All I did was spend $100 on a Dell i5 3020 and I downloaded Retroarch and have all the emulators and games for old systems running
The Mame emulation is messed up control wise on thease things. For some reason control pad one also controls and loads player two in fighting games and beat em ups making them unplayable. Any idea on a fix? Many thanks 😊
Sounds like you need to reach out to the manufacturer, as the issues you are describing are definitely not something that I have experienced with my device and not something that is normal operations.
@@FightOstinFight they sent me some possible fixes but I have bricked previous super console’s trying to mess around with the emulation so I haven’t dared try them to be completely honest.
PS2 was notoriously difficult to develop so I imagine it's more difficult to emulate than the Dreamcast. Dreamcast was just a console Sega NAOMI so it was easy to port Arcade games. Try PCSX2 on your computer for PS2
Really wish the manufacturers of these all in one retro consoles could streamline their files to eliminate the clutter of multiple versions of the same game. Thanks for the great honest review.
1000% agree, it would make them so much more appealing and accessible most people

These have been Pi killers for years now. One of these in a modded arcade1up is amazing
Thats exactly what I was thinking!
There are just so many of these devices out there its hard to know what's good and what isn't!
Agreed and I’m not very knowledgeable on these either so idk which will be best
This looks pretty good
Love your videos! I am switching my home arcade from a jamma pandora's box back to a retro pie type setup. What one would you recommend? Thanks!

I'll piggy back on that question also. About no more then 2-250ish I'm willing to spend

is this better then the super console plus modules? also whats the advantage of a 256 g unit over 64 g? thx

Games are all installed already
Well WWF No Mercy, Erestlemania 2000. An Wcw/nWo revenge ints here 😢 can be added?
Would you do a video about using different controllers?
When I buys this are all these games on? Or do you have to have an as card and have these games

Is this the latest console or is the super console x3 plus the latest? I’m confused
