I noticed Bloody Roar could've been a bit better after, but I hadn't tested that stage before so I could've probably tweaked the settings a little more. If you have any tips yourself on any of these games then do feel free to leave a comment about them!
Have you seen the KT-R1? It‘s the first device that looks „unbelievable“ to me, you got a whole PS2 running pretty smoothly in a Gameboy Advance sized package. I think it‘s gonna be the one that makes people that were on the fence the last few years finally commit. The only complaints are the lined up shoulder buttons and the shell design that looks 2010ish. What are your thoughts? Cheers!
@@zoyboy1914 I'm semi interested in it. It just looks kinda squished and I don't really like the colour options.The lined shoulder buttons might not be a big deal but yeah it'd be nice if they were stacked.
@@solkalibri1376 ETA Prime just posted a vid where PS2 seems to run really good. Auto Modelista on Gamecube also ran at 60fps in the same vid (according to him a demanding game; emulator benchmark) looks promising.
Hey man thanks again for all your hard work in providing our emulation community with such a lengthy gamecube video once again. Im very very happy to see these games running, and If you ever come back to testing anymore ps2 titles, I would love to see Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec. GT4 ran well, but not well enough for.most to consider playable. Hopefully GT3 actually can run on this beautiful device
@@-roetaka incredible!!! I'm really excited to get my rp3+ but sadly I'm wrapping it up for myself to have at christmas. So all your videos have really been hyping me up, if Gran Turismo 3 ran well it would be the only thing id use the device for. I would literally play that game and only that game... But anyway thank you for raising my hopes a bit
7 months later, there's emulator changes that may need to be addressed. For example, the Github link in the description is 404, that repository no longer exists. Some stuff I'm reading online says the current official Dolphin would work better than it did anyway. You can find apks online for the MMJR version but it's old, and I won't link to any as their sources are not known if they're reliable or sketchy.
Ugh, the beyond good and evil sequel topic is a sore one. That games been in and out of development hell for over a decade. Encouraging to see it run so well on rp3+ in the opening area. its a masterpiece for sure.
Love these videos, keep it up! I had a steam deck and odin lite and sold both, too big for my usage even though I hate giving up the power. Going back to vita and rp2+ emulation while I wait for the rp3+ to arrive. Although, I may miss the 4:3 rp2+ and oled vita..... this hobby is like chasing the dragon Would love a ppsspp showcase if you're at all interested in that, btw!
"this hobby is like chasing the dragon" too bloody true man haha! They feel more like fads at times, I find myself barely using my Odin now and just love the size and power of the RP3+. But tomorrow...
Just recieve my RP3+ and your videos are a great way to get the full enjoyment out of this handheld! Question, what specific settings did you use for Skies of Arcadia Legends? Been tweaking as much as I can and can't get the same smooth framerate as even that lol Appreciate it!
about the super smash bros melee crash: it probably is the widescreen that crashes your game, it happens also on nintendont(a gamecube emulator for the wii)
For beyond good and evil widescreen you can disable widescreen hack and also use 4:3 aspect. Then you can use display scaling option to zoom into the image. Same for resident evil 4 i think. Both games have quite strange letterboxed widescreen which is embedded in a regular 4:3 aspect.
@@mickeymickey9914 the game is actually not anamorphic widescreen because it has hardcoded black bars at the top and bottom, wasting vertical resolution which is generally not the case for anamorphic content.
Hi I know this is like 5 months late and maybe you've already realized this but in Smash Brothers, if you want to turn off tap dashing, the thing you were complaining about, there is a setting in the game to where you can turn it off and have it so that your character only dashes when you move your stick twice in the direction you want to dash in
Trying to get Pokemon XD to run on the RP3+ has been a nightmare for me. Vulkan runs the game wonderfully on MMJR but battle arenas are overcome with flickering black texture errors unless if “Store EFB Copies to Texture Only” is disabled but then the game’s performance tanks extremely hard. OpenGL solves the graphical issues but at the cost of even more performance and won’t begin to run at fullspeed except with 20% clock speed and abysmal framerates in the overworld. I was wondering if you had any ideas of how to fix this, I’m super stuck :(
Do you ever experience sudden emulator crashes? I keep encountering it (across multiple emulators) on my 3+ with probably a couple dozen titles at this point. All games that have been reported as perfect or great on the comparability sheet, using recommended settings but no amount of tinkering seems to aleviate it. Just trying to figure out if this is a my device issue, or a retroid issue. Any help would be appreciated, Im going bonkers trying to keep Toadstool Tour running lol.
Question. When looking for ROMS for Gamecube, (I guess PSP or PS2 as well). What region should the games be in? Does it really matter? And by PAL version of ROMS, does that mean UK? This is all so new to me and I want to order an RP3+ later this month but want to have the correct roms to load
Sadly not. Best you can do in MMJR is quit the game, go to general settings and set game speed above 100% but you'd have to save and do that constantly.
It's bare, sometimes like with the Miyoo Mini you'll get an SD card with games but it's not strictly...looked well upon. With emulation you always should of the mindset that you need to get/find your own roms and that the emulators may require some setup.
There have been no reported issues of heat with RP3+. Multiple testers have said in the most intense cases it may get a little warm, but not enough to be uncomfortable to hold.
If you touch the 3 dots in the top right you can select Gamecube Input or Wii Input and set your controls. When you're in game swipe or touch the back button and press the 3 buttons again to see Toggle Controls, you can press Toggle All at the bottom to remove touch controls from the screen.
Sorry I forgot to check that one. All settings on except for "Immeditately Present XFB" and "Sync On Skip Idle", CPU Speed at 50%. Not perfect, probably could be tweaked a little or run better in another fork of Dolphin.
I know this is for GameCube but has anyone have any luck using the gyroscope of the rp3+ for Wii games? I can't for the life of me find the settings for it
When you're in game in MMJR, swipe to get the menu to appear and then tap the 3 dots in the top right and select sensor emulation. You'll have some options of which you'd like to turn on, so for example if you select tilt you can tilt the RP3+ left and right and that will work.
It's called Pegasus and uses a custom version of the shinretro theme that I added some stuff to, but some of it like the music and sounds are in the most up to date shinretro theme.
So I'm using Dolphin MMJR and it plays smoothly but sometimes the screen just goes white for a few seconds and then it goes back to normal. Like in pokemon Colosseum, everytime a poison type move is used I get a white screen until the poison animation is over. I have the same settings as you too, everything is normal until a poison move gets used. What settings can I mess with to fix this issue?
Switching the backend from Vulkan to OpenGL fixes it. I changed the CPU clock speed after that to 50% just in case and that seemed good. No idea what the performance will be like with OpenGL but in one of the battles I tested it seemed fine...strange bug tbh haha. If performance is terrible in OpenGL and you want to use Vulkan you could actually try looking for a HD texture pack for the game, small chance it might fix the problem but that's going the extra mile.
@@-roetaka so I did what you suggested and there's a lot of flickering. It runs smoothly, but some of the text boxes flicker or a character will flicker. I don't get any white screens but just some flickering. This will probably be the best it can be :/
@@kazooman4050 ah sorry dude, sometimes it is what it is. If you're desperate you could look more into MMJR2, MMJ, Dolphin and Dolphin for Handhelds (I know lol).
Would be nice if there was a spread sheet with all these settings, i am still waiting for my rp3+ 😪. Atm i am converting games to chd to save space on my 512gb micro sd, can't wait to start adjusting everything.
Hmm not sure what to suggest. I assume you've grabbed the apk and installed (sideloaded) it to your device? Then what happens when you try to open the app?
@@-roetaka it freezes upon opening. another funny thing, when i run mario kart, i have to run it in opengl instead of vulkan, or else it appears that the race is at night or something. anyway, thanks for the guide! will try a couple of these games out on dolphin for handhelds :)
I don't see why not, as long as it's not a cheap knock off one. I'm thinking of putting a 512gb one in, currently using a 256gb along with the 128gb internal storage. If you're compressing your games and not downloading everything under the sun I don't see why someone why need a 1tb.
Just got a retroid pocket 3+ and none of the buttons are working, I am extremely dissapointed. Now I wrote to the company, but who knows... My recommendation, don't buy it!
It's not on the store. I have links in my video description, you install it yourself by downloading the apk to you retroid pccket and then sideloading it with something like APK Installer from the Google Play Store.

Sadly not. Best you can do in MMJR is quit the game, go to general settings and set game speed above 100% but you'd have to save and do that constantly.
For Ikaruga could you flip it the other way and use the right stick for moving and face buttons for firing?
Could you try out project M and other fan mods?
Hello for your vidéo ! It IS helpfull thx ! Is that possible for u to make the same type of video on thé RP4Pro Retroid pocket 4 pro ??

How does GameCube play fine on this machine, but not PS2 or Saturn!??
i have this issue that mario ttyd and pokemon xd always crash when barely playing anyway i can override that?
are you testing USA or EUROPE roms ?
have you tested yugioh the falsebound kingdom?
Do all these games come pre loaded or is the machine bare and its down to the user

does anyone keep track of there heat. How long can you play GameCube titles for?
There have been no reported issues of heat with RP3+. Multiple testers have said in the most intense cases it may get a little warm, but not enough to be uncomfortable to hold.
What do you press to get the individual game options up before starting them?
You just hold the button in or press for a longer time.
how to i set the RP3+ controller its still using the touch screen controller as default

you’re not playin three of the best gc games, NFSU2, Prince of Persia SoT and XMen Legends. Please do! Animal Crossing for the wire OFC
In skies of arcadia legends what do I put the cpu emulated clock speed on?
Sorry I forgot to check that one. All settings on except for "Immeditately Present XFB" and "Sync On Skip Idle", CPU Speed at 50%. Not perfect, probably could be tweaked a little or run better in another fork of Dolphin.
