Aaaaaaaaah..... you tease me with this video !! Mine is in transit at the moment.. I WANT THIS HANDHELD !! I'm still so big fan of the LDK and wanted to test this out myself.
Don’t get too excited wicked gamer. It has been revealed the LDK Horizon uses the old A model of it’s SoC. Thus slightly weaker and uses slightly more energy than the original LDK.
I just bought a psp go in very good condition for $60 Wich is the exact same price as this handheld. Better emulation, more pocket friendly and just nicer in any other way
Yadiel Perez yes it is, just install RetroFW and you can emulate most PS1 games and all GBA games, plus a few other systems. Why do you think it isn’t worth it? Especially now that there’s an analog stick
Yea it's just a huge risk for the maker. There's actually kind of a market on Twitter. People who make stuff like that. If you look hard enough, you will find them.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention! I’ve been looking for a portable cheap console for my gameboy roms but held out because I didn’t really like the ones that were out. This one definitely appeals to me, and I have bought it! :)
This is a comment that I dropped on ETA Prime's channel: To answer everyone's question about what to purchase between the Bittboy PocketGo and the LDK Landscape, I'd put it this way. The Bittboy PocketGo and the LDK Landscape are both open source, meaning that better emulators can be ported to the systems with CFW (Custom Firmware). Yes, the LDK Landscape has 4 times the RAM that the Bittboy PocketGo has, but like ETA Prime said, 32MB is enough power to run the supported games. It is entirely possible that Yoshi's Island struggled because the emulator that came preinstalled with the Bittboy PocketGo doesn't support the Super FX Chip games. But that could be easily fixed with CFW, because a better emulator can be ported to the device. The LDK Landscape also has an analog stick (joystick), but in my opinion, I don't see the point of it. Even if the LDK had the potential to run N64 games, it still lacks a C-Stick and a Z button (but it does have X and Y, but still lacks the C-Stick). I have no idea what the analog stick could be used for other than that or Doom and Quake and I suppose Arcade. Most people are gonna want to play retro games on these devices and an analog stick isn't the ideal way to play most of them, unless the original console had a joystick. The LDK Landscape is on sale for $61.99 and you get 4 times the RAM and an analog stick. The Bittboy PocketGo is $39.99 and can do what the LDK Landscape can. At this time, the Bittboy PocketGo struggles with Super FX Chip games, but with a CFW update, it has the potential to run the games a lot better. If you think the extra RAM and an analog stick is worth the extra $22, then purchase the LDK Landscape, but if none of that matters to you and are patient enough to wait on a port of a better emulator through CFW, then the Bittboy PocketGo is the better option. The Bittboy PocketGo has a lot of potential and that is why I purchased it. I have 4 modded 3DS consoles and never thought I'd buy anything like the Bittboy PocketGo, simply because the 3DS is far superior, but something about the Bittboy PocketGo made me want to go outta my way to purchase it. Maybe it was the outstanding price of just $39.99.
@@turtleletortue It would definitely improve the performance though. Updating an emulator or simply using a different one will always improve performance. You're right about the Bittboy PocketGo being weaker, but it has potential. I might end up getting both, honestly, but I love the form factor of the Bittboy PocketGo a whole lot better.
@@tededwards5709 he's not wrong. The landscape version uses an older processor than the verticle, leading to some emulation problems and screen tearing issues.
@@RetroDodo Have you confirmed that the A/V output doesn't double as a headphone jack? Such sockets typically do (by simply adding a video line that audio-only devices ignore).
Phillip Nguyen it feels nice and games play ok. Some have a little lag, but my main gripe is the light bleeding on the top left edge. But playing Sonic 3 it played perfectly. Genesis Street fighter 2 lagged but they put the pal version...so gotta try another game. PC Engine Rtype and Street fighter ran awesome and look perfect on this screen. Still annoying with the light bleeding into the top left screen. If it’s a defect only on my system, then it’s the 2nd system to have a defect from bittboy.
I love these videos so much and watch them all the time. I kind of wish the music the videos start with were more quiet though. I always start a video and get my ears blown out so I turn it down, and then I have to turn it back up just to hear him talk.
A lot op PSX roms do run on this, at least: they do on the LDK Game (the "not horizontal version"). Most 2d run just fine, like Castlevania or Suikoden II. Just boost the CPU a bit (to 680 or so) and enable automatic frameskip. Most games in 2d run at 50fps that way :)
Looks really nice and a lot more comfortable. The clear version looks really nice. I'm liking the written review too. The GB games look amazing, but I don't think the tech is there just yet for larger games
Bittboy Pocket has screen tearing(only 30fps Screen)... lower sound quality... and much lower performance... the buttons and the digital cross are lower quality. The LDK is in another league... If you change the stock chinese batteries to good quality BL 5c 1200mAh you get 5-6 hours gameplay! Tested it with Patona batteries
@@bi0hazardxiii379 the ldk has a 2 core cpu and 128 mb ram... the bittboy only 1 core and 32 mb ram. The ldk ist even better than the pi zero... and with good quality 1200mAh batteries(not fake stock) it lasts so much longer than the other systems (5-6 hours). Biggest problem of all the Bittboys is the screen tearing coursed by the 30 fps display... while the ldk has 60fps display and therefore no tearing at all. I owned both systems for testing but i will sell the Bittboy... 1. LDK 2. GPI Case 3. Bittboy
@@__Pathfinder__ would changing the screen fix the fps issue? Or would it need better ram? Or was it more software based that made it lag behind? Maybe the emulator? Or something not optimized correctly? I appreciate your feedback, as I have been trying to get a proper understanding of it all. As I like the form factor of the GBA, but the Bittboy's looks more comfortable than the LDK, I dont know what is true of course. Everywhere is sold out apparently.
@@bi0hazardxiii379 try the normal LDK and not landscape version. I have that version. The LDK wins im every aspekt. The buttons and digital cross a better, too. If you want 100% gameboy design than rather try a GPi Case. I prefer the LDK odet GPI. Better performance....Charging while playing... with good quality batteries twice as much playtime(5-6 vs 2-3 hours). Batteries type BL 5c are very small. But buy a glass protection for the LDK TFT. It gets scatched fast. They sell extra protections for it.
@@__Pathfinder__ much appreciated, going to go look some up now. I hate buyer's remorse so I try to research thoroughly prior to purchasing. So, again thank you.
Was gba emulation same as or better than the pocket go? You didn’t show much gameplay in the pocket go as compared to this (ldk). I was gonna do bittboy pocket go but heard there may have been some screen tearing/frame drops on GBA emulation
I ended up ordering the PocketGo just because it looks so smexy. Always wanted a Gameboy Micro, but they're expensive now, and the PocketGo is like $40USD and just looks gorgeous. I have no qualms about pissing away $40 on a toy, even if it just ends up sitting on my shelf.
Glad to see your content has been improving over time. I enjoy that you're comparing to other simmilar value and build quality handhelds. Your titles though, could be better. It's not a gameboy advance mini. It's a portable emulator. Dont mislead your audience, be honest. We all know it's an emulator, you know it's an emulator.
What is the point of an analog stick if it can't play anything that needs it? Cool bonus I guess, but the bittboy PocketGo looks like a proper built system, this looks home built.
I have a gbm in the vehicle with me now and I'm still grabbing my bittboy. It's easier to charge otg withy normal chargers. I have a rom card in the gbm, but the bittboy plays more systems. It really is kind of a toss up when I own both but still grab the bittboy. For anyone who doesn't own a micro, this costs half or less.
Wait, the final version won't have a headphone jack? That's a huge deal for me. Specially since the images in their page make it seems like the video output jack is the headphone one (it even has the headphone symbol). If it doesn't that's really disappointing.a
I love the LDK, i prefer the little square one😊 - your yellow version of the little spongebob is an older version, it’s also available in picachu yellow and other colors as well 😉
Well there is a GBA SP version of the RS-90 if you are into that sort of thing. From what I have read on some forums, it already had CFW installed and runs CPS games and GBA just fine.
Yes, this woulda been perfect when i was a child. I love the original gba but this one looks like the shape and size would have been alot more comfertable an more efficient as a child.
Not sure why they have the AV cables included since, on their website, it says the Landscape LDK cannot connect to TVs. Turn that into a headphone jack
Same. I don't see the point of an analog stick, if none of the games it can play even use one. Build quality looks pretty bad compared to the pocketgo.
packlesswolf1 I ordered mine last wednesday and it was shipped on saturday. Hopefully yours will be shipped soon :) It says that my estimated delivery is july 2nd, can’t wait!
Yeeees you are so great man, I was actually looking at this landscape version (LDK Game V2) on Aliexpress and found it for like 50$. I saw the V1 and looked great but I'm pretty sure this horizontal version is a lot more comfortable. Thanks for the reviews, keep it up. Is the Pocket Go as good or better? All I'm looking for is basically playing old SNES / GB / GBC and GBA games.
@@KrazyShark Hey! I bought too a black transparent on Ali, but the store guy told me that i need wait a few of days. Can you reply me when yours is shipped? Sorry for the bad english grammar!
Nice review. I also enjoyed your pocketgo review, which is one of the reasons I ordered that one. So if you had to pick which is better the LDK or the pocketgo? Which has better screen and emulation, color depth? Why did you mention the build quality is better on the pocketgo? I'm kinda jealous this one has a slightly bigger screen...
LDK feels considerably more sturdy. Screens on both are comparable. Emulation for both of mine were really shitty when they arrived. Prepare yourself for the task of installing custom firmware.
@@donaldmcronald8989 Thanks for the heads up. Shame to hear that though... I've seen more videos on the bittboy, unfortunately it looks like screen tearing might be an issue. I assumed these shipped with the latest firmware, where would I go to download the latest version?
Ldk horizontal is inferior to the original ldk. It does not have the ingenic ‘b’ chip. Therefore the overclocking speed can only reach about 630, the b chip can get to 750.....ability to run better quality and more powerful games
LDK is quite thick so definitely not pocketable like the bitboy. The shape of the other LDK is kinda unique but is not comfortable to hold like this one for those with big hands. I like both bitboy and the other LDK, the bitboy is quite cheaper (still cheaper when it goes back to regular price of $49.99) but the screen is a bit smaller and the battery is not (friendly) replaceable, so I ordered LDK yesterday
Nice review! Maybe you need to reboot the device before starting a PS1 game(after running other emulators/games)...maybe they need to be cleared from memory to run correctly before you try a PS1 game? Just a thought.
Anyone else finding their LDK Landscape crashing constantly? I've only had mine for 3 weeks and as yet I've not been able to really play anything as it constantly crashes and reboots itself.
It's funny, I feel like it has a decent chance at playing PS1 stuff with a bit of work on the emulator and maybe a resolution drop. I bet pre-rendered stuff like Resident Evil, Dino Crisis 2 and the Final Fantasy games work fairly well.
I'm giving one of these away over on twitter, get involved 👉 twitter.com/retro_dodo/status/1141281085940293632

@@schnibie1991 sweet I'll let you know too lol
Yeeees you are so great man, I was actually looking at this landscape version (LDK Game V2) on Aliexpress and found it for like 50$.
I saw the V1 and looked great but I'm pretty sure this horizontal version is a lot more comfortable.
Thanks for the reviews, keep it up.
Is the Pocket Go as good or better?
All I'm looking for is basically playing old SNES / GB / GBC and GBA games.
also waiting for replies on this.. I'm a sucker for the concept of Handheld SNES :D Is it good enough for SNES?
@@Neoradtz
Welp I just ordered it mindlessly on Ali cause they had the black version. Hope it doesn't suck!
@@KrazyShark Hey! I bought too a black transparent on Ali, but the store guy told me that i need wait a few of days. Can you reply me when yours is shipped? Sorry for the bad english grammar!
@@ChusSilva It's okay. It's weird that these sellers put out the black one when it's out of stock. Hopefully it won't take too long.
hdmi would be awesome
whats should i get if i only wanna play gba games, this or pocketboy go?
PocketGo
Incinerated Soul but why? Just curious
That IS a headphone jack, no? They said AV-out wasn't supported on this model.......I'm confused. Why not have headphone jack for handheld device...?
I hope they make a DS one cus that would be awesome
Doubtful they don't even have a good emulator for the DS yet. They do have one it just requires a high end computer to run correctly.
True tho but it's a possibility
my Asian parents:AYO ThaT ThiNg sO sMalL huRt YouR EYE yOU knoW?!?!
What about a 2d PlayStation game like Mega Man X or Castlevania Symphony of the Night
Nice review. I also enjoyed your pocketgo review, which is one of the reasons I ordered that one.
So if you had to pick which is better the LDK or the pocketgo? Which has better screen and emulation, color depth? Why did you mention the build quality is better on the pocketgo?
I'm kinda jealous this one has a slightly bigger screen...
LDK feels considerably more sturdy. Screens on both are comparable. Emulation for both of mine were really shitty when they arrived. Prepare yourself for the task of installing custom firmware.
@@donaldmcronald8989 Thanks for the heads up. Shame to hear that though...
I've seen more videos on the bittboy, unfortunately it looks like screen tearing might be an issue.
I assumed these shipped with the latest firmware, where would I go to download the latest version?
i got that kirby game on my snes classic mini
Nice!
You should record at 60fps with your camera if possible to check if the framerate of the games are smooth!. Great videos!
Thanks Jarkan!
Ldk horizontal is inferior to the original ldk. It does not have the ingenic ‘b’ chip. Therefore the overclocking speed can only reach about 630, the b chip can get to 750.....ability to run better quality and more powerful games
Is this accurate?
gonna stick with my CFW pspgo
I saw another review of the rectangular one which had the old DOS shooter game Tyrian on it, makes me want one just for that!
damn. these handhelds are getting closer and closer to running those first gen 3d games well.
Nah more likely psp games
Looks like a great little emulation device 👏
I would like to see this form factor with the stick, but with the better cpu package of the new retromini.
Nice video! Just wondering if all these games you played here need to be downloaded into an SD card first, or are they all pre installed?
Yo. It has a heaphone jack. Its the same port as the av leads
Is it easy to open? Because I'm going to need to rearrange the buttons to be blue, red, yellow, green, from a clockwise perspective.
The joystick will prevent you from removing the front face of the device and make switching the buttons difficult, but it is do-able. Enjoy!
So with these people say that it offers save states. Does that mean that the in game saves wont work?
i cant find these anywhere all of the sudden
LDK is quite thick so definitely not pocketable like the bitboy. The shape of the other LDK is kinda unique but is not comfortable to hold like this one for those with big hands. I like both bitboy and the other LDK, the bitboy is quite cheaper (still cheaper when it goes back to regular price of $49.99) but the screen is a bit smaller and the battery is not (friendly) replaceable, so I ordered LDK yesterday
Nice review! Maybe you need to reboot the device before starting a PS1 game(after running other emulators/games)...maybe they need to be cleared from memory to run correctly before you try a PS1 game? Just a thought.
Nice thing for emulation! But I use sony xperia play for this since 2014, it cool emulation all consoles: nes, md, gba, ps1, n64 and other.
How's the battery life?
@@RetroDodo 5-6 hours of playing
Anyone else finding their LDK Landscape crashing constantly? I've only had mine for 3 weeks and as yet I've not been able to really play anything as it constantly crashes and reboots itself.
got a 2nd hand psvita 1000 for $60.. hacks it and now can play almost all retro games.. ps1 psp gba snes etc..
No snes test? What? Sponsored preview, hm? I think snes will run very bad, therefore no showing.
It’s Mario not mayrio
Is the screen the same as the older model? It doesnt look quite as crisp as the square one but it might just be a trick of the camera
A great screen? Isn't it a TFT display with poor viewing angles compared to the IPS display on the Bittboy's?
The Infinity Gameboy
This lookx awesome🔥n more comfortable
Do any of these tiny game boy copy’s have Pokémon or dragon ball z on them 😂 that’s the only reason I’d get one
It's funny, I feel like it has a decent chance at playing PS1 stuff with a bit of work on the emulator and maybe a resolution drop. I bet pre-rendered stuff like Resident Evil, Dino Crisis 2 and the Final Fantasy games work fairly well.
It can actually play those games extremely well with the newer custom firmwares that were released for the system and with certain options enabled.
I know this is a bit late but are you able to hook up Bluetooth controllers to this? Does anyone know?
They can play less polygon intensive games fine, which is why they advertise PS games. It's just a matter of having the right game.
How do I get one of these?? Are they still available??
Bit of an old video, but just wondering if anyone has been able to ad boxart to RetroFW? Thanks
Is it worth buying it? Or bittboy one?
If you have tv out based on mini jack IT could be use as headphones out too.
Only for headphones... Website says 'This version can not support TV out currently'.
I’m looking to play anything retro - did you run into any issues with SNES, GBA, and earlier devices?
The size change kind default the purpose, if it cannot go to a pocket, why not just use a PSP instead.
Nice Video, could yo try the retrogame 300 (its a new version). Regards from Chile!
Does it come with games pre installed?
