Loved this video, thank you! I just got my G Cloud and am excited to dive into the PSP on it! I was able to snag mine for a great deal from a guy for $150.
Yea, I’m thinking that cloud and PSP is my use case for this device. But 💯 agreed, way too expensive. Hopefully this thing gets some price cuts for the holidays.
@@retrotechdad I have one coming from Canada since this is still not available here in Europe. But I need it, right now is a one of a kind on the market with his big screen suitable for my use case: home streaming from PS5, Series S and PC rig. My retrogaming is NES SNES ARCADE PSP so it's good too. Slightly overpriced yes, but you pay the brand and the fact that this thing has no equals right now. Some may say Odin or other names but to me the combo big screen/no fan/no noise/no heat wins it all. If more power is needed I'd defo vouch for the Odin Pro, but it's a 6-incher with active cooling I think the G Cloud will be perfect for my (very niche) use. To each his own :)
@@retrotechdad Logitech is a company that tends to set high retail prices and then discount their products deeply based on the market. So I really think this will be a lot cheaper a few months from now than it is now. That might make it worth picking up. I enjoyed this video BTW. Combining a best games list with a performance test was a good idea.
I personally went for the RP3+ (smaller, waaay cheaper, just no analog triggers.. ugh) but if I wanted something bigger and with more power, especially if I lived in Europe, nothing would have beaten a Steam Deck. As it had been said "to each his own". I'm just a bit angry at Logitech because they could have made a better and cheaper product, selling way more. Instead they offered a mediocre product with just a few amazing sides, for double the money it's worth. Which means that Logitech (playing it safe) is happy, a minor percentage of over the Wifi (partially retro)gamers are happy and we will possibly have some more happy people sometime in the future, when this thing will get sold at a fraction of its price, in huge bins at commercial centres. The latter group, if they want to be happy now rather than later, have to forcibly "look East" with all the pros and cons.
I really don't understand the hate this handheld is getting. Although I love my Steam Deck, this thing is a lot more portable and handles emulation like a dream! The thing I like the most is absolutely no fan noise. I signed up for GeForce Now and now I am seriously contemplating selling my SD. If only it had video out.
I'm only playing on my Gcloud now! The feel in my hands is so great. I love it! I'm glad it can psp games cuz they are some i really want to play like Jeanne d'arc.
I got the cloud for the remote play , ergonomics and screen size. I was surprise to see how beautiful the psp games were. Now I got a sad psp and vita sitting on the shelves
I love the G Cloud, such a comfy handheld with a beautiful screen! You've done well 🤗 I definitely get the handheld addiction part... got a bit of a problem myself 😅
@@retrotechdad yeah I went from 0 handhelds to 2 Miyoo Mini Pluses, 2 RG35XXHs, and the G Cloud…… pretty soon I might get the Odin 2 😅 Great channel though! There is such an awesome community for this stuff
Você é o melhor youtuber dessa plataforma que fala tudo sobre esses jogos portáteis. É melhor comprar um celular de última geração ou comprar um retroid, ambernic ou algum outro para jogar na melhor qualidade?
Thank you for your kind comment! It really depends but if you have access to a high-end cellphone and then use a controller attachment, it will be far more powerful than any of the retro handhelds right now. The benefit of a retro handheld is that you get a device dedicated to gaming with a built-in controller and a screen that is better suited to gaming, usually something with 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio.
Great job as always! I never would have thought to play Chinatown Wars but when you showcased it, I actually thought “I can really have fun with this!” Check out Half Minute Hero if you get a chance. It’s one of my favorite pick up and play PSP games of all time. This device really has become a sleeper hit. I never expected Logitech to make something so amazing.
Half Minute Hero is awesome! Chinatown Wars is a weird one for me. I never cared for the top-down GTA games but CW is really awesome. I definitely recommend checking it out, it is a lot of fun! I'm hoping Logitech can give it some price drops so others can understand why we like the device so much.
My only issue when it comes to emulating the psp is the star wars battlefront series on it because some games needed proper analog stick move to look around and move forward
for the price of logitech, i prefer my Ayn Odin, even better for psp and cloud gaming. Logitech G Clloud could be better if the price was around 220-270$
Well if this not play well Logitech have big problem consider the price almost same as Aya Odin, and I think Retroid Pocket 3 and plus version will do better jobs than what Logitech want, it's cheaper and can do streaming if you want more power there Aya Odin.
It really depends on the game, some are more demanding than others. In the video, the games are running at 3x native resolution which is a good spot for stable performance.
@@retrotechdad Planning to play mostly jrpgs :) is the difference from 3x to 4x noticeable? Btw thanks for the response retro tech dad! Much appreciated!
@@retrotechdad I saw another video where the diagonals were hard to detect. They used an app to test and they played Street Fighter and it was hard to pull out the moves. Did you have a similar experience?
@@retrotechdad Have you tried remote play using moonlight/sunshine? I'm curious how gamecube and ps2 games would play on the logitech g cloud this way.
I'm a bit confused when it comes to the appeal of this Logitech product. Basically, in the last few years I've seen hordes of buyers (most males but females as well) competing to grab the biggest, most high definition TVs/Monitors they could afford (and I'm keeping out of my reasoning sound bars and home theatres audio set buyers). And now, a small, but possibly increasing, percentage of those same people, just when high definition, last gen, consoles and PC graphic cards are finally available at reasonable prices and quantities, is happy to spend another 350 nuts just for the pleasure of looking at a smaller screen with less hertz and probably, hopefully, wearing a pair of common headphones, but laying on their sofas, beds, or toilet seats.... It amazes me how this is even a thing. Is everyone living with their TV monopolizing kids, parents or partners? Or it's just that the COVID crisis brought to some people so much money and free time, that we got to the point that we can afford an electronic, entertainment oriented device, in each and every room? It makes me wonder: do we really need multiple smartphones, tablets, TVs, computers, handheld consoles, smartwatches, kindles etc. etc.? When I was younger, "consumerism" wasn't a good thing. Nowadays, for some, possibly the vast majority, it is as much needed as breathing.
Sorry bro,it didn’t work,kept saying it doent match with my Logitech Gcloud .im looking for an app where I could download those emulation games without jump all those hoops
Ah, typical Google Play telling us what works or doesn't work on our devices. You can always sideload the APK, just do a google search for AetherSX2 and then download the file directly onto your G Cloud. Unfortunately, I can't provide you with the BIOS or ROMs, but you will need both to play. I've really wanted to make a return to the G Cloud and cover PS2 emulation but have been swamped with other videos I have planned.
The psp games in this look great, unfortunately I don't own any psp titles and I'm a good boy that doesn't pirate. Also when using Steam I recommend using the SteamDeck interface instead of the outdated big picture mode, looks great on this device. Love my cloud,it's mainly an accessory to my gaming pc. Love it for not having to hunch over my desk, I can go anywhere with it and relax comfortably. I don't do emulation directly on it, I use Moonlight and play off my pc. Playing switch titles enhanced at 1080p on it is pretty awesome. In fact since buying the Cloud my switch has begun collecting dust and just serves as a card reader when ripping the games off onto my pc.

What a steal, it's an awesome device especially at $150! Enjoy 🤗🔥
Awesome job as always , PPSSPP is one of the best if not the best emulator out for a single device that has some amazing underrated gems .
Thank you so much for the continued support! PPSSPP is an incredible emulator. 🔥🔥
Can you please tell me where I can get the ISO files?
If this was cheaper, I’d be happy to have this by my dedicated PSP handheld. As it is, the retroid pocket 3+ is going to fill those shoes

Agreed, I love the G Cloud. I think it's a great handheld, most of the hate I believe comes from the pricing mostly.
You can cast the G cloud to an android TV
i think in a new video by Retro Game Corps , Russ mentioned that they added video out in a new software update.
Yes, they did! 🙏
It has video out now
I'm only playing on my Gcloud now!
The feel in my hands is so great. I love it!

PSP emulation on the G Cloud is SERIOUSLY awesome. It's definitely an underrated device for emulation. 💗
Bought this for 100$ from a guy on Facebook lol, gonna load it up with PlayStation /Nintendo emulators
That is a ridiculous deal, nice job!! 😲🤯
Thank you for this video. I also like the style of this video: written information, stylish but not too many special effects.
Thank you for watching and for your kind words, much appreciated!
Just grabbed one of these. My handheld addiction is a bit out of hand. Cant wait to run some PSP!

Hello, friend. Thank you for the good video.
Could you post the disassembly method of Logitech G Cloud?
I'm working on something for you but I have recorded the disassembly, will be in an upcoming video!
Great job as always! I never would have thought to play Chinatown Wars but when you showcased it, I actually thought “I can really have fun with this!”

can u show how android games perform on logitech? logitech has a very nice screen and seem very comfortable to play
will you be getting the Retroid Pocket 3+?
Yes, I pre-ordered the purple 🍇 one. 😎
please do a video on how you apply hacks/tweaks etc. to games
Well if this not play well Logitech have big problem consider the price almost same as Aya Odin, and I think Retroid Pocket 3 and plus version will do better jobs than what Logitech want, it's cheaper and can do streaming if you want more power there Aya Odin.
The price is absolutely insane, unfortunately.
will you be getting the retroid pocket 3+?
Yes, I preordered the funtastic purple! 🍇😀
Can it run psp games at 4x native resolution due to the 1080p screen? I would like to consider this over the retroid pocket 3 plus

Hello, Is it possible to use analogue instead of buttons to control the camera in MGS?
Biggest deal breaker for me is the bad D-Pad.
Not the worst I've used, but definitely a legitimate concern. 🎮🕹
