It was sloppy soldering. But Its tough cause there is a lot of custom PCBs that make ti all work and overall I think the design is solid. But It needs like a better QA cleanup. Its like they just kind of got to the finish line and sat down before crossing it on this one. The overall form factor and design and parts all seem good. But....why not finish it. Also I think they missed a trick not having the HDMI port accessible from the outside. I would almost get out a dremel a port and HDMI extension to give it dual function as a portable screen.

Fun fact: The joystick issue with NBA Street has been baffling me for years. On my first fat PS2, you could not move up and left at the same time using analog. Your player would stop in place. I changed controllers and got the same problem. On my slim PS2, oddly enough, the problem seemed gone. Last year, on my jailbroken PS3 with software emulation, the problem returned with a vengeance. I have no idea what is causing this, but it even reoccurred in the Xbox version of NBA Street 3. This is the first time I’ve ever seen another person say this out loud. Interesting!

There's a reason why people who make modded portable consoles rarely sell them and when they do they charge more than double than what this costs.

I just got my Steam Deck, highly recommend it. It's a full PC so you can even install Windows and emulators on it if you want, but I'm enjoying the Linux OS they made for it and my backlog of Steam games. My favorite part is the hardware support tho, it's phenomenal compared to these no-name Chinese handhelds: Valve has already said they will be selling official spare parts for it to replace on your own, and they have their own teardown videos for replacing joysticks. That alone shows me they intend to support it for a very long time.

V7 probably means it's the 7th version. Looks like a good portable with the only downside being that it was made in China and used crappy d-pad and analog stick. If you could modify it just sacrifice a PS2 controller and replace all those buttons and d-pad on the handheld with the ones from the PS2 controller.

Exactly what I thought. Just replace the crappy control boards with parts taken from an original controller, and once you got them tuned in properly, control should be near normal...

Not gonna lie, the console looks not too bad. Maybe the seller or whoever made it should at least have a sd card cover on the top like the nintendo switch so that way you can open it and close it with your fingernail or make it look more like the og ds's card slot.

@PulseClockPhantom2 жыл бұрын
It seems as if the buttons are a bit chintzy. The real question becomes: do the face buttons preserve the analog switching mechanisms present in real PS2 controllers? If not that would make certain games that benefit from or even require this feature, such as The Bouncer (and possibly some niche aspects of MGS 2 & 3) nigh on unplayable. I think the presence or absence of the analog button mechanism would definitely factor into my decision-making process if I were to invest in this device vs a different portable system that could potentially run a PS2 emulator.
@daikiasuka82092 жыл бұрын
Per your request: I'd say my favorite PS2 game was probably Blood Omen 2 from the Legacy of Kain series, or the sequel; Soul Reaver. BO2 was great once you've unlocked a couple of vampiric powers...especially the Jump power. There's just something about targeting an enemy (or victim) from long distance, then just leaping at full speed and slamming them to the ground, and using the mist form that just makes you feel like an actual bad-a$$ vampire, unlike so many other vampire games. My two cents.

Inside the console there seems to be the original seller information on taobao which is a Chinese exclusive market so it seems like this console was resold to you buy a middle man aka drop shipping which means you paid extra and it’s probably cheaper if you bought directly of of taobao check the seller to see what the original price was
@madmatt20242 жыл бұрын
"Looks at price." Yikes! The base model Steam Deck is cheaper than this. The only way this could possibly be worth it is if it was sold for under $200 as a DIY kit where you supply your own PS2 and install it in the case.

Using original hardware might be valuable to some people, but we're at the point where PS2 hardware can be emulated on something 1/100th the size, and with 1/100th the energy requirements (or better). You could make much better use of the space, and get better battery life. It's not for me, at least.

Steam deck is a better option. The PCSX2 emulation works better than OPL firmware on a original ps2 console. Also the quality of a deck is superior for the price.
