    A third option for those rare PS1 games not quite running at the full 60fps is to use the PAL version of the game. It should run at the full 50fps of PAL games so the audio should be fine and there'll be smoother frame pacing too.

    • @oromain
      @oromain 2 года назад +2

      Unfortunately, some PAL games don't actually change their game speed appropriately to match the difference in framerate. One particular example I'm aware of is Tekken 3. The game is just 1/6th slower on the PAL version, because the game speed is still tailored toward 60fps despite running capped at 50. I don't know what other games do that (and thankfully I think NTSC Tekken 3 runs perfectly fine on Miyoo) but that's something to watch out for.
      (I only know about this because this was an issue with PAL versions of games on the Playstation Classic).

    For anyone watching this.. Be careful the newest stock os software does not work with onion os at the moment. As it corrupts the vram /on system os storage and creates a soft brick situation. If it says 20221200 this is coming on new v2/v3 miyoo minis shipped as of December and later till the situation is resolved don't try to install onion os till a work around is figured out.
    Edit the devs at onion already got a new version to fix this awesome job to those guys...

    I was waiting for your review. Sorry to see that you had issues updating to the Onion v4 from a previous version. I was able to update over a previous version without the hassle you went through, but that's not the point of my comment.
    I'd really like to see a video regarding the ports. I'm not too familiar with how to install the games for those ports. I've seen a video where someone put a Super Mario 64 port on the mini and it ran well. Which tells me that there is sooo much more potential with the Miyoo Mini. Anyways, love your videos and can't wait to see your Ports video for the Miyoo Mini. Have a great day.

    Awesome guide as always! My Miyoo Mini should be here in a few weeks and I am incredibly excited. I originally wanted to use MiniUI, but the new features of Onion v4 look like it's the best option! Fortunately with a new device it'll be a clean install from the start. And I would love to see a guide on getting DOS games running! I tried to do it on my RP2+ but had issues. I'd love to play Jazz Jackrabbit, Doom and Tyrian on this thing!
    Wild question - could I copy my Retroarch game saves from my RP2+ to the Miyoo Mini? Or is it only from Mini to Mini? Thanks!

      I'm definitely gonna do the dos/ports vid sometime soon. Seems lots of people are into that idea (which is awesome!).
      Actually, yes, you should be fine to bring your old save games over, as far as I know they use the same save format. Just do the method I described, make 1 save game for each system (just so it forces the device to make the appropriate save folders), then copy over your save files into the newly created save folders. It should be easy enough to figure out but LMK if you run into problems and I'll try to help you out.

      Now, emulation is a bit iffy, but I installed a nice retro package for my Vita which only had the most optimal games and devices loaded. Nintendo 64 isn't the best, but some games work pretty good.
      That being said, the Miyoo Mini does better emulation for retro games than the PS Vita does. But it is nice to have Half-Life, Diablo, Grand Theft Auto 3, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, along with the top 150 highest rated PS Vita games installed on one single device.

      Make sure you refresh your rom list after adding games (press the select button in the game lists menu with Atari selected). If that doesn't work it might be a file name issue. My files are .a26 files, if yours are a different file extension try renaming one .a26 to see if it's detected. If that works you could do a batch-rename on all the files in the directory (google that if you need a hand).

This brings up the RP3 handheld but it tends to be more expensive when not on sale it might be my one in all console.
    I wonder if OnionOS will run on either of those or if they use JasperOS or somethin?

My biggest selling point on the device was how small it is. The anbernic devices are definitely bigger and not as easily “pocket-able”. All the devices you listed seem like winners so I guess anyone you choose will do just fine:) the winner for me is the miyoo. 15,000 games loaded on mine when I boot it up gives me peace of mind!
