Thanks. I like that you show the setup before testing. Subscribed. It would be nice if once you made a video about CRT/LCD shaders and/or filters for these 480p devices.

Can’t wait to see how this little guy handles DS and Dreamcast emulation. The battery life and pocket profile really draw me to it. If it runs Sonic Adventure and is at least decent at DS emulation then it would be perfect for what I want it for. These types of videos are extremely helpful. Thanks for your hard work.

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

Just wrapping up my Dreamcast testing and I can say that it runs sonic adventure no problem. I'll work on DS soon but I don't anticipate much issue emulating them. You'll just run into the issue with displaying both screens at once for dual screen games with the 3.5" screen. Stay tuned for the rg35xx h Dreamcast video coming soon

[@morid0]

Was impressed by this little device, Dreamcast will be hit and miss but you can play a good amount at full speed like marvel vs Capcom 2, crazy taxy, and many more, some won't run well but considering price this little device is great

[@eldercristian7329]

I think with exception of Wave Race, everything else just runs fine! Amazing performance with great ergonomics and battery life. Thanks for the tests!

[@Stormmover]

Awesome video thank you

[@chamo907]

Ty for taking the time to put this together. Super helpful. Do you happen to know if starfox 64 can run well on this system?

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

Sorry for the late response, yes star fox 64 works well

[@PaulIsbell]

Honestly I just want to play Zelda OOT & Zelda MM. Some added bonuses would be Mario 64 and Mario 3.

[@W0sst-]

Nice videos! I have bougth a RG35XX H and i have one question, to play N64 games what do you recommend, use Stock OS or any CFW? Thank you in advance!

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

Use batocera. It's the only cfw that currently has the standalone mupen emulator which has better performance than the retroarch cores for N64 for the most part

[@y.8901]

Hi, thank you for your video, which console do you recommend me for the same price (60-70 I guess), to enjoy playing some retro games, or even N64 games like OOT, etc. Is this one the best actually ? Thanks !

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

If you are looking for N64 then you will want joysticks. I think the rg35xx h is the only one in that range that can play N64. As you have seen in the video though, it's pretty hit or miss. OOT is playable on this device but you'll want to set low expectations for the rest of the catalog. If you want to throw in a few more dollars, you could get a rk3566 device like the powkiddy rgb30 or anbernic rg353 line that's a bit better at n64 but again not everything. For the price, I would say that this device is the best bang for your buck at this price point.

[@DUB2DAK]

LIKE YOUR DETAILED VIDEOS U JUST GOT A SUBSCRIBER WHERE COULD I GRAB THE N64 SD ?

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

They don't sell an SD with N64 games already on it, you'd need to make your own. But with a computer and a little help from Google it is super easy to add your own games to the SD that comes with it. N64 ROMs have a v64 or z64 extension.

[@Curlyman172000]

Trying to play WCW vs NWO revenge but I can not see picture but I can hear audio. Any ideas on how to fix it?

[@jimst3r1]

Were all these PAL Roms? Coz you can squeeze a bit of performance out by getting the pal ones since they’re only 50hz

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

These are all ntsc ROMs but that is a good tip for anyone looking to run some of those games on the edge of performance

[@ralphieralph9176]

how does it work with the latest firmware from Anbernic, 2024 June?

[@darlacastaneda4415]

Does the green light stay on when you’re not playing? Where do you find Mario and Mario cart?

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

Green light is always on as long as power is on. Mario does not come with it so you'll have to find your own roms and add them to the SD card

[@darlacastaneda4415]

@@RetroHandheldGuides thank you for your info

[@davidtharp2125]

What is the best setting for most games to emulate well?

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

"most games" is really hard to define here. Parallel with rice gfx will run more games at full speed but many games will have missing textures or textures that flicker which to me is a bit too annoying to enjoy. I personally use parallel with gln64 then switch to rice if it doesn't run at full speed to see if I can at least get it playable.

[@trynaskate7894]

Awesome video! Thank you so much for doing the trial and error for us! Now I know I can get Smash Bros and play with my boy Ness again 🥲

[@Karl0xe]

What is your resolution on oot with mupen64 because i cannot play on 640x480 with this core???

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

I think that mupen defaults to 320x240

[@deniseperez7007]

Do you think is possible to install garlic os in this device?

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

Garlic OS 2.0 is compatible with this device but it doesn't currently support those upper end systems like PSP, N64 or Dreamcast.

[@UrbanHim]

Any idea on how to get Amiga games working on this? Cannot for the life of me figure it out!

[@jimst3r1]

Yeah me and my dad had the same issue. You need all of the bios files and there’s a bunch of them. There are guides out there but think my dad lost interest in the end. It does look like there’s an Amiga core installation but it looks like it’s missing the bios and games

[@UrbanHim]

Thanks man, I’ve got all the kickstarts, but nowhere can I point RetroArch to them, and doesn’t seem to be any Amiga emulator on the device! This is the only handheld in my collection I can’t get Amiga to work on!

[@jimst3r1]

@@UrbanHimif you look at retro arch cores there is Amiga emulators included. If you start your game rom and it should boot and ask you to point it to the dir of the files: make sure they’re in your bios folder. I think the issue is I don’t have all of the required files to run mine but there’s a page with all the required files for the Amiga.

[@jimst3r1]

@@UrbanHimalso depends on what you name the kickstarts too btw

[@UrbanHim]

@@jimst3r1 My kickstarts are named correctly, got them from my AGS package, I have the A500 / 600 / 1200 and CDTV/CD32. Thanks for the tips though, I’ll keep trying, I just can’t even see my Amiga games (.adf and .lha) from anywhere on the handheld, I’ll see if I can launch from RetroArch

[@jaygilliland68]

How do you bind the C settings I know it’s in the function settings but I’m afraid of messing it up 😅 for Zelda

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

Usually the c stick is bound to the right joystick. So in-game you would press the right joystick in the direction you want to correspond to the c direction

[@jaygilliland68]

@@RetroHandheldGuides thank you!🙏🏽

[@ruffneck119]

I just got mine from amazon and an N64 emulator isn't even installed. How do you install it? I know where to get roms. Thanks!

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

The emulator is installed but you cant see it in the menu because there are no roms in the corresponding folder. You need to add roms to the SD card in the roms/N64 folder. Check out my guide if you aren't sure how to do that retrohandheldguides.com/rg35xx-h-starter-guide/#how-to-add-games-to-rg35xx-h

[@112njp]

what if you bought another SD thats 128 GB and want to add N64 emulator on that?@@RetroHandheldGuides

[@travianwarrior695]

Does the analog has a preasure sensitivity? for exemple, I want to walk slowly on Mario 64, is that possible if that analog?

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

Yes. Just push the stick a little and not all the way to the edge and you will walk slowly

[@travianwarrior695]

@@RetroHandheldGuides I understand, thanks! what is the best OS for perfomance in N64, PSP and Dreamcast in this handheld? Stock, MuOS or Batocera?

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

For N64, batocera. For Dreamcast and psp then the latest stock (or mod3 stock) is a little better. Overall, I would go with batocera but you need to disable DSP audio in the retroarch settings to get decent Dreamcast performance

[@pedromartins9710]

In your opinion, RG35XX H or RG353VS? They are similar in performance?

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

In terms of raw performance, rg353vs is better. The 353 line also has better custom firmware as of right now and also supports portmaster which adds a lot of old and new PC game support.

[@pedromartins9710]

@@RetroHandheldGuides ok. We need a CFW for RG35XX H for better performance...

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

There are a few coming up (batocera, muOS) that offer a bit better performance on N64 but still not on par with the rg353 line. They are close but if you really want n64 then rg353 will offer a slight edge in performance though it will cost you more money. If you go for the android boot rg353v then the android side offers much better n64 performance than the rg353vs

[@pedromartins9710]

@@RetroHandheldGuides ok but the rg353v is double off the price the RG35XX h.

[@RetroHandheldGuides]

For the price, you won't find better performance than the rg353xx h. But don't buy one hoping to play a bunch of N64

What grip caps are those?????
