    Nice list. Glad you said the prices. Everyone is shying away from that nowadays.

      Thanks buddy, I personally always find it important to put some context of price. Sure it will be different depending on what country you're in but it still give a ballpark figure

    I know you love the miyoo. I wonder why you didn’t look into the powkiddy A66. I think the most unique handheld are the pocketgo s30 which was $60 but skyrocketed. The Game Force Chi which I hope doesn’t disappear and the RG353P which they tried to clone the pocketgo s30.

      I've got an A66 I still keep meaning to review, lol! It's great for Handheld emulation but I'm pretty disappointed in the home console stuff 😕 I'm yet to mod a though which I know improves things a lot!
      Yeah those other consoles all seem awesome, I just need some decent time checking them out.
      Cheers buddy!

    How do you actually get the retro games onto these consoles? I am researching to buy 1 as a gift. Thank you

    • @ChronikSpartan

      Some of them like the Anbernic devices and Miyoo Mini have the option of coming with an SD Card that has games already loaded on them.
      Other devices like Retroid and AYN you need to download the games. You can find them using a simple Google search of the the game name and Rom. Retroid and AYN can connect using the built-in Chrome browser and download directly.

      Depends which one you're after.

    Not sure to get rg35xx or a cheaper powkiddy v90. What do you recommend with a budget around $60?

    • @ChronikSpartan
      @ChronikSpartan  Год назад +1

      The RG35XX is much better than the V90. The V90 struggles with SNES games unless modded. I'd definitely get the RG35XX.

    Very nice list. Even though I have the very awesome Steam Deck, that Ayn Odin Pro looks pretty dope. Does it have analog triggers or no? That Retroid Pocket 3 looks nice and sleek too, but I'd be worried about getting a subpar screen or something.

    • @L0WEREASTSIDE
      @L0WEREASTSIDE 2 года назад

      Yes, the Odin is rocking analog triggers. He's not lying when he's says it's a beast. Now if you ask me, it should have been #1, however, I'm Pretty sure it was listed at #2 due to the price. Even though the Odin knocks the chips out of the RP3, and for what it can emulate it's worth every penny.

    The retro handheld market need link play more them anything else. 2+ player games that you can play together. Being able to pkay Pokémon with other handhelds should also be a thing. I never play Pokémon however retro Pokémon was super fun. These adds would change retro handhelds in the best way possible. Miyoo mini no doubt should do this and I will buy it asap and another for a close friend.

    I am 53 and disabled from pain so playing games daily is my only option sadly. And my PS4 just doesn't have enough RPGs. I bought the retroid plus 2 and unfortunately have no darn idea how to obtain games and emulators. Do you have a video or know someone that makes a video that can help me out? It's a bummer having a 120 bucks in electronics just sitting on my dresser collecting dust, thanks

    • @ChronikSpartan
      @ChronikSpartan  Год назад

      All you need to do is get your rom file for the game you want to play then put it in the relevant console folder on your device. Then point your emulator to the right place and it should work fine.
