I really appreciate your honest enthusiasm in these videos. It's so easy to get jaded with this stuff and lose sight of how awesome it is to be able to play hundreds/thousands of classic games on a portable device like this - and then turn it into a home console. I feel like your vids really speak to my inner child that just wants to play around and have FUN with a toy like this, and I rarely get that from other channels.

[@michaelpalmer2143]

I'm actually working with the AmberElec devs on the new PortMaster, and I love Linux on my handhelds(and PC). The 353ps seems like a decent affordable replacement for my aging 351p, but without an Android option, it lacks the great feature of also being a portable streaming box. The t618 machines are more powerful and run modern Android, but they lack the tighter EmuStation interface and PortMaster compatibility for retro and indie games. So I still don't know what to buy.

[@Play3rThund3r]

Found out about it watching your video on the sn30 controller that i clicked on just for kicks cause i already have one however i wanted to get an ideia of how the GB color one would look like. Plot twist, you had this console next to it and im in love with it. I want one really bad now! I recently found out why old games looked better on CRT TVs thanks to BRKsEdu`s videos, a huge and really good brazilian youtuber livin in Canada(fun fact), and watching him talk about retrotink and all of that sort of thing made me try out retroarch in order to apply some filters with some old GBA Games and got me thinking about getting one of these new 3rd party consoles coming out. So congrats, friend! You`ve earned a Portuguese subscriber and now i will most definitley buy one of these. Cheers and happy new year

I got into the hobby recently and bought retroid pocket 2s for myself and rg353p for my cousin. After testing some games on the 353p, I immediately fell in love with it.

[@ondrej1893]

I ordered one and I'm new to this. My goal is mainly to fill it with best games for each system - especially those systems that run flawlessly or mostly flawlessly, up to N64 or some select Dreamcast/PSP games - and play them (I bought 32GB and 256GB SanDisk card and a card reader). Originally people said to also install ArkOS but I'm not sure, it seems just getting games might be enough. Especially if autosave can be activated in stock as well. Any legally acceptable advice on where to get the "top100" or similar game packs of best games?:D I know about RetroGameCorps video guide for ArkOS and games so I might be using appropriate parts of that.

[@silverwolf1842]

Great Video! But how DO you connect the blue tooth controllers? Any help with this would be so much appreciated. I have a 8bit do SN30 Pro controller. Id love to make this a home console for my retro games.

[@TechDweeb]

Under the controller settings (press start on the main home screen) there is a "pair a Bluetooth controller" option. Then you put your controller into pairing mode, and it should automatically detect and connect to your controller. Then you will probably need to configure the controller, using the option in the controllers menu to do that. After that you can choose which controller is the primary controller, the built-in retro pad, or the new Bluetooth controller. If you have multiple bluetooth controllers you can choose which is p1 p2, etc. After that it should work as expected. Good luck!

[@TheHoodieGuy13]

Exactly why I bought the RG353P. Having HDMI-out and Bluetooth, combined with the comfortable shape of the device just makes it a very awesome retro gaming device - both in handheld and in "docked" mode. Although it was a bit of a hassle to geht HDMI-out and Bluetooth running at the same time. Glad that they seem to have fixed that problem with this version. Maybe I can also use this firmware on mine. Have to give it a try.

Is there no latency when connecting a bluetooth controller while playing on hdmi out? I saw on Reddit some people saying that the latency was pretty bad albeit that was for bluetooth headphones lol.

[@TechDweeb]

Yes, you can transfer both your save files and your save states, just grab the SD card from your previous device, do a search for the game name and then you will find all of the files with that name, grab the save file and the states, and make sure you put them in the proper place on the new SD card. Also make sure the files have the same names as the ROMs on your new device. But it's totally possible, I do this all the time, transferring saves between devices.

YES ACTUALLY! It's super easy. In the system settings there's a "UI Mode" that you can set to "Kiosk Mode". This will make it impossible to mess with the settings in the frontend, you'll just be able to do regular game stuff like search and launch your games. You'll need to type a special code to exit from Kiosk mode (AAABA). This is great for gifts or sharing a device with a kid or whatever.

[@GentielioGaming]

On the Anbernic shop it says this...16G (no game) ; 16G+128G (compatible 4519 games) ; 16G+256G (compatible 4318 games. Very confusing. So does this mean no games unless you add a sd card of 128gb? And it has less games with a 256gb card?? Or do they mean they add 4318 games to the 4519 games if you order it with a 256gb card?? Anyone knows?

[@TechDweeb]

Yeah, 16g means you'll be adding your own SD card with games. And I'm assuming the 256g version just has more higher end 3d games, which are bigger in file size, so there will be less of them (and maybe less of the lower end 3d games, which are smaller in file size so they can fit more). If you contact Anbernic they'll give you the game lists.

I received this with the 256gb one and i would not recommend this card with the higher end games. i would opt for the 128gb one. the higher end games don't run that well. Tomb Raider 1 or 2 (not tried the other ones) don't load after the boot up screen. i paid more for the sd card to have less that run. I think i will contact them to send the 256 card back to have the 128 card to have more games that run good.

I tried evey tweak and different emulator but the ps1 games won't work. The same roms do work on my cheaper rg35xx and some roms for psx that won't work on that device at first i simlpy just set the video to "fast" and they do work. The menu on the rg35xx is also easier without having the hassle of the retroarch witch is a bore with the small box letters. I like the design of the rg353ps but it is just not as capable what the cheaper rg35xx does. A real shame as i like the design if the rg353ps as you mentioned.

I agree with you on the button colours Mr. Dweeb - those Anbernic coloured buttons that they've started using look absolutely garish and horrible! I've got an RP3+ in the European SNES colourisation, and that level of saturation is just about acceptable, though it helps that the buttons are small. For me, my favourite colour/saturation balance for controller buttons, is the original Playstation controller, recently copied by the AYA Neo Air Plus (I was set on getting the Intel i3 variant, until they doubled the price).

[@AJDOLDCHANNELARCHIVE]

I'd really like one of these for PS1 games, with the 4:3 aspect ratio, stacked shoulders, analog sticks, and decent performance. I've got an RP3+, Miyoo Mini, and Anbernic 280V.

The Problem with this one is that it's only €10 cheaper than the RG353P which also supports Android. So i wonder: What were they thinking? They kill their own products. It's €180 on Amazon. And if it's on Amazon, most people won't buy it from Asian stores.

I ordered from Anbernic and the preorder price without tax+shipping was 87 USD.

[@wizzel22]

​​@@ondrej1893 You can do that, of course. Please wait 6 Weeks for shipping, at least here in Germany. And if you don't add Tax+Shipping it's not the "real" price.

[@themadmoderator8465]

@@wizzel22 never paid any tax from anbernic and shipping is around 12 bucks for europe and usually they arrive in under 3 weeks

Isn't it ANBERNIC? Is this one (or the other) a knock off of the other (or this one)?

[@strikelight]

You missed the schtick/gag.

[@WxkR]

@@strikelight Definitely did. I thought it was a joke in the introduction. When he kept saying it, I started to wonder if he really knew the difference ha ha ha!

I absolutely get what you mean. As people say, you eat with your eyes first. You play with your eyes. It has that great retro toy feel to it visually and physically. I like it a lot, and think I’ll get it.

Huh, this was one I tried and just did not like at all, ended up returning it

[@PieInTheSky9]

Why not?

[@johnsducks9816]

@Echoherbs I thought it was a bit too big to just shove in my pocket and not worry about it I like the other anbernic designs better
