I can definitely vouch for the RG351V and the RG280V, they remain two of my favorite devices. I think the RG35XX original also strikes a great balance of build quality and affordability. Something about the 280v is very special, though--I think it's the balance of size but good controls. My kids are drawn to that one, too. It's a great size to just toss in your bag or pocket and can play everything I care about, GB/GBC/GBA/NES/SNES. The buttons and dpad especially on the 280v feel really good to me, almost SNES-ish.

I thought about selling it but it plays many games well such as full screen PSX, PSP, does some 3DS, about half of the PS2, some GameCube and even some Wii games.

Poor ARC getting looked over again, even in a Looked Over Devices video. 😢
@adinwallsАй бұрын
Well this was more of an older device video although I guess the Arc is a bit older now.... Actually you make a fair point. However I am planning a dedicated Arc video soon

I'm supposed to upgrade from Rp3 plus. But since the development for Citra, AetherSx2 and Yuzu got shot down, I didn't end up getting an odin 2. I might still get one but for Android games like zenless zone zero and wuthering waves

Hey man, I am sure I will review it. It's a nice idea. But the more I though about it, I feel the RG351P is a way better option than the V10.

Which is more powerful? RG353vs or RG35sp?
@adinwallsАй бұрын
Hey there. The 353 is probably just a bit more powerful.

I will have to check I just like it because it looks like a Switch.

i buy the r36s for the gameboy vibe and the roms. Above ps1 like psp, vita, ps2. . . i suggest you guy just use an old android. playable most of them + a controller. stay away from this money pit, you guys will thanks me later for this.

A30, I'm so upset about my 280v. Just look up. "rg280v won't charge." It's a common problem. My 280v doesn't work anymore.

Aiden my friend I am a big knife guy before the retro handheld scene was around and used to get lost down that KZbin rabbit hole, but I must say everytime I see your knives it's like XU10 category, it will cut but it's not pretty, for your video sake you should get a nice Benchmade or Microtech. Love you and your videos, not trying to be dbag just a suggestion and I believe you might enjoy that hobby as well, those knives can be very figgity and fun especially OTF knives.
@adinwallsАй бұрын
Hey man. I'm really at the beginning of knives. A local guy sent me some links too. I had a very specific look I wanted but I only know of artisan knife makers in North America who make them so I will wait until I can arrange that.

Can I start by saying that I love the video very appropriate topic. But I disagree with the RG353V versus theRG353VS, I honestly believe having the android option is worth the extra money, but that’s a personal decision. Again, I love the video thanks and keep them up.
