Hey, can anyone help me out pls...? basically One day I was at a store and decided that I needed a retro handheld device but after I spent a couple days researching which one I should buy I stumbled across this thing called "Razer Kishi" and basically that thing just connects to your phone and you can play all the games on your phone like a handheld device, since it costs as much as the retro devices themselves I figured that my phone can run any games I can ever wish. Is there any reason to get a retro handheld?

God I’m so thankful for your channel. It’s like taking a free online course about using these handhelds and it teaches me how to use/understand them in such an informative, straightforward, and practical way. Plus you also have a written guides for most of the handhelds, so someone like me who knew nothing about cfw, or partitions, or mods, could easily just jump right into this community and find the best way to enjoy these handhelds. The videos have such a friendly vibe to them that I recommend to all my friends to watch your videos first when buying a handheld you’ve reviewed. Thanks a million for all your videos!

I've always been into Emulation since way back in the late 1990's on PC, but I recently picked up an Anbernic RG351V and am totally in love with the machine. Whenever I need advice and general information on the modern emulation scene, I instantly come to this channel alone. You've done some amazing and exemplary work not only in informing, but also in making it entertaining to watch - all with succint, clear communication. Kudos.

Hi, I know I'm late, but the games are NOT free; you can get them for free, but it is completely illegal. Your ISP can cut out your internet service for downloading these games illegally, and they will force you to pay a fine to have it turned back on. Law enforcement can also get involved, but this does practically never happen as they have better things to be doing.

Downloading media, including games, illegitimately is illegal, as well as distributing them.

I've found myself wanting to play older titles, but smartphone emulation just wasn't cutting it for me. It just doesn't feel right tapping a flat screen to press buttons haha. And my actual GBA systems felt pretty limiting and each model had tradeoffs that I didn't like. The SP has backlighting and a rechargeable battery, but no headphone jack. And the original model has a headphone jack, but no rechargeable battery and no backlight! So I discovered alot of emulation handhelds and was pretty lost trying to figure out which ones were good quality. Thankfully this video exists! Both detailed and informative. Thank you very much!

Yep, I like the short travel and positive tactile feedback (clickiness) of the RP2 buttons. The long throw and mushy feedback of the RG351P buttons isn’t as natural for me; feels like they take more effort to activate, and my timing is slightly off. That said, I can adapt to either style after a few minutes, and I haven’t used either long enough to judge comfort during extended play. Short version: no, you’re not going crazy! 😂

Nicely done. Just my advice for anyone who wants to start this hobby/obsession, get yourself a good and decent Bluetooth controller and hook it up with your pc. They're tons of emulator that you can download and try for yourself. Your phone is more can capable of running those games and it performs better than most of the dedicated handhelds here. It's a very low entry cost to this hobby and you might be more satisfied with it than purchasing a standalone handheld console.

The RG351P/V are basically the peak of this era and chip, in terms of form factor and quality, and the community has really pushed the software hard too. So right now this is the best time to jump on this while the next era iterates and finds its groove. Unless there is a significant jump in production quality or power, there's not much reason to wait. Yes, it will come, but it'll be shaky for a while.

You're the best, Russ. BTW, everybody: the Retroid Pocket 2 D pad DOES hurt...me, at least. I have one, and it's more powerful than an RG351P, but I've barely played my Retroid. I WILL use it for more demanding games, ONE day.

Nice, you know I was just thinking that all these new emulation handhelds are cool but too expensive, it's awesome to see a video comparing devices under $200 with emphasis on value rather than raw potential with cost not being considered.

Thank you SO much for this. Very to the point, summarized, with highlights of what they are. Been wanting a device like these for ages and I didn't even know PS1/N64/PSP could be emulated (I’m still stuck thinking GBA is too powerful in my mind and that only android has been able to do it because it has the required specs for it) but seeing that even Android games can be emulated in some of these, it’s mindblowing! Thank you for this! Seriously!

Really good video. I have an rg351p Nd a retroid pocket 2 and I completely agree with you. I thought the retroid pocket 2 would be my go to after all the early hype but I cant put my rg351p down. All the stuff you have shared re firmware guides etc has made it all very accessible and unthreatening for me and I have mine set up brilliantly now. Thanks for all your hard work and helping me get the best out of my handheld. Thank you!!!

Great guide! It's great for comparison's sake to have every device shown off in one easy video. I got an S30 on its way in the mail - the SNES controller form factor holds too much power over me haha. Plus I wanted a lower-end device to tide me over til Anbernic finally releases a product that checks all the boxes for me (Retroid Pocket 2-style L2/R2 placement, dual analog sticks and 4:3 in a landscape shell)

Thanks for these videos. Just got my 351m a few days ago, and absolutely loving it so far. I was worried that the screen was going to be too small after being so used to my Switch, but it's honestly quite gorgeous. Just wish I could get Neo Geo working! I've put multiple BIOS files in the folder, but keep getting errors when trying to load anything.
