  • I go over my overall thoughts on the Ayn Odin, the pros, the cons, and one of those pros being that it has something no other device has and I wish they did. Also, if this is a device I would recommend...

    I absolutely love odin pro I have 62 PS2 games running absolutely perfect (that’s why I bought it)and the thing about android 10 it’s not really an issue there are a lot of places on the Internet where you can find almost every game and get them up and running without much hassle it can even play some switch games but when It comes to AAA games it’s a no go but for the price I think it’s an absolute winner🤘😎

      I don't believe you when you claim gamecube and ps2 games run "flawlessly" on the odin. Some games like zone of enders 2 and champions norrath/returns to arm don't even run at acceptable framerate. Many of the ps2 games require tweaks and tampering with the settings to get them run decently without glitches. It's a good device for dreamcast and below generation of games, plus ds, psp and gba games. The form factor is the best for the handheld market. The gamecube and ps2 is mere plus not the main selling point imo.

      @@sasoriobinnamii9223 well maybe it depends on the game but I’ve played thru entire GameCube and ps2 game’s flawlessly on my Odin. Right now I’m half way thru Pokémon grand colosseum and on the ps2 end I’m playing splinter cell pandora tomorrow. Both haven’t given me any issues what so ever. Matter of fact. Any game I’ve thrown at it works and most at 2x Some need tweaking yes but 5 min of tweaking isn’t really asking for that much considering you’ll have a smooth experience after. People who pick up and play will have issues sure but I’m no where near knowledgeable on tweaking settings but simply looking it up on Reddit and copying what someone else has done has always seemed to work for me. Like I said 5 minutes in return a smooth experience. The form factor is also fine. Coming from someone who has giant hands. Is a steam deck better ?? Yea of course but this is cheaper.

    The Odin suits my lifestyle much better than a steam deck. I like Retro gaming as far as Game Cube and I'm always out and about. I'm also into game streaming with GFN and Game Pass so the Steam Deck doesn't suit me. I do think I will buy a steam deck in the future because it has my interest but I could wait till they iron out it's bugs and make it a little more user friendly

    I'm had the odin pro for 3 months and a steam deck for a month. The odin is an alright device but if you want to play ps2 and gamecube games without constant tampering with settings then get the steamdeck. I prefer the form factor of the odin to the deck but it needed more horse power for 6th gen emulation.

    So I am seriously considering getting the AYN Odin Pro 256GB. So you said that it can handle PS2 and GameCube games, and obviously N64 with no problem. I would love for you to test out PS3 games on it, to see if they will run. Will it run Wii and Wii U games? Will it run standard Xbox games? (Since Xbox 360 and up is out of the question) Sega Saturn and Dreamcast games? I have a Steamdeck already, but really want to have an awesome emulation handheld, and don’t want to drop the money that they are asking for the Loki.

    I have my steam deck and I love it but I think I’m going to sell it, I am primarily a console gamer So I feel like the Odin Lite with Wi-Fi 6 would probably meet my needs better as an emulation machine/ remote play handheld. I know steam deck can do all that but by the time I sell it I could get an Odin and an Xbox Series S for access to GamePass and just stream everything at home or play retro games up to GameCube natively

  • @cyber7550

    Great video and I love my Odin pro man but like I said before I’ve been a mobile gamer for years now but it plays every game you can throw at it great if it’s a mobile game and so much more in emulation and Xbox game pass is amazing I’d say better then my Rog phone 3 but what I wanted to comment about was the part you said you were having trouble with PS remote okay so I’ve not used it for this but one thing that might help if your not using it is when you map your buttons click on the new button you just created and it will give you a menu for that Pacific button and you can make your buttons do all kinds of things but uncheck show button keys then they will be invisible on screen not sure if that helps but lmk 👍🏼 ps. You have to click on each button and uncheck them for all buttons you want hidden hope this helps 🎃

    Would be better if you ran some tests instead of just holding the device and gave us a bit more of feedback about what games it can run and when it struggles with some footage and frames. It's an ok review, just wish it had more content on the device.

  • @KyleRuggles
    @KyleRuggles Год назад

    Yes! Buy it! I got the base back in March and like... with game streaming? I got EVERYTHING covered! Great battery life, can play wii/ps2 etc on it while out and about and when at home, I stream my games at high quality from my pc! Given most people use a steamdeck at home, like... ya know? And that battery life ugh.. even when streaming.. ugh..
    Once you root this thing, it's a f*cking beast! Windows 10 isn't that bad on it either, just there isn't much development for windows on ARM, sadly. Wii-u, ps3, xbox etc can't work on ARM, it needs an x86 processor, sadly.
    Like I just think about the battery life, x86 devices chew through the battery, I don't want to constantly think about power when out and about, the new compact Aya Neo's are great but the battery life! I think the Odin is just great to have if you don't play AAA games when out and about and concerned about battery life. I'm using castor which creates a VM on my pc which I can stream from using moonlight and still have my pc available to do other things. As for latency, I don't really notice any, so if you got a good wifi connection at home and do most of your AAA gaming at home, why not?
    Great vid!

      The G-cloud is underpowered, doesn't have video out and it's sd card is limited to fat32, meaning no large ps2 games, and it doesn't really have the power to play ps2 games at anything above 1x. And it costs more than the Odin.
