Mine Just arrived today and I very quickly discovered how nice it is to play on tv with the second controller switched to player one! The second controller still serves a Huge purpose even without a second player. It is smaller, lighter, the start and select buttons are in their classic positions which is great, and you can keep the console by the tv while you play wireless across the room instead of being limited in distance by the length of the cord! That Really makes me want to get another controller to see if I can do two player tv wireless. I understand if it didn't work somehow and either way I am very happy that I got the extra controller package just for wireless one player whether on console, tv, projector even.

If custom firmware does actually become available for this, then I'll pull the trigger. I would definitely need to curate the game set on something this basic but I really love the SNES controller look. I have the Anbernic 353M because it's just more practical for me in my situation but i REALLY wanted the 353P because of the SNES controller look. It just ended up being to big and not subtle enough for me in terms of a being a pocketable carry around town thing. On the other hand, this Data Frog thing would be an easy buy for the nostalgia hit as long as I could tweak it a bit.

Bro, I bought one of these on temu, I was very impressed at first with the roms list and still am to be honest. With that being said, my unit may have serious battery issues. While my batteries aren't catching on fire, the battery that came with it died in less than a week, on top of that I put in another battery of the same type from my vape stuff and that battery is now fully dead too. The worst part is, both batteries died after the 2nd recharge after first use. This may be a battery killer. Honestly the roms list may be the best value for this particular handheld, providing you have the ability to use it in another device. So I'm a PC nerd, cuz, and I happen to have an Intel compute stick I've been dying to make a portable plug in PC/streambox/retro game player. I'm going to go through my spare vape batteries and probably buy 1 brand new battery of exact specification before I give up on this handheld. Either way, I look forward to putting the micro SD card from this into my Intel compute stick. 😊 Added, I luv how you call this a "beater", because it's cheap AF.

Ill also get the cobtrollers since theyre $5 for another two controllers. That raises a question. How the hell do they connect the controllers to the handheld? It cant possibly have a bluetooth or 2.5ghz internal band. The only real shame is no headphone jack. I would like to give her some headphones too. I just wanted to find something that could do GBA pokemon and below for like $30 or less and wasnt a piece of junk. I really wished the anbernic nano was around $30, since she particularly has a huge obsession with "tiny" things and it would have ticked her pink.

@@TechDweeb I noticed on the box for an unboxing that it mentions it has 2.4ghz built in. If it has that, wtf. How. For $20, with two wireless controllers as well. Either way, we'll find out in a few weeks!

@@ge2719 yep! The handheld has a dual band 2.4ghz chip in it. Zero setup at all, both controllers natively worked like a freaking wireless SNES. It's kinda nuts.

Sick. ... This is definitely a contender (I'm looking for a tiny retro handheld to disassemble and make a tiny "working" "crt tv" out of) or maybe another v90 😅

This device would've been good if it was shaped like a Genesis controller. I don't get why they made it look like a SNES controller, if it can't properly run SNES games...

Had mine for a while now and switched out 18650 with Samsung and didn't change battery performance and the battery bar is junk because when it's drops to 3 it drops super fast and if it runs out playing a game it corrupts the game (did for me). SNES games that aren't running right switch the system settings to PAL and it fixes the performance. Other than that it's a amazing cheap good for what it is handheld

“While, yes, there are some legitimate, practical things you could be spending your $20 on, you should probably spend it on retro games instead.” This is good dialogue/writing! 😂 Taken from the book of Dweeb chapter 3 verse 8… no?
