The Emulation Revolution: How Odin 2 Pro Is Changing the Game!

[@kii_2002]

How I love when KZbinrs hype up my poor spending choices ❤

[@eugeneordonez33]

I know and I just bought rp4 pro and now Ayn Odin Pro 2💅🏽😭🥰🥳💚🌈.

[@DOBdaSOB]

My friend, you can upscale gamecube to like 4x easily on this! No need to play F-Zero on Native resolution. And also, idk if I'd consider flicking down to 59 FPS as an actual dip.

[@tdata545]

I started out hating mine, but now I really love it. Got it during the IndieGoGo campaign, and went all out with a 16GB 512 model in clear blue. MAN was that a good choice, that blue is beautiful. LUCKILY, they've been pretty good about fixing annoying software issues as they pop up, so my issues with them in the beginning has been more or less resolved with the last couple of updates.

[@omegamanGXE]

Why’d you hate it

[@KyleRuggles]

Great review! It seems Ayn took the Loki off of their site, damn. Still enjoying my OG Odin base.

[@coconutfleetsleeper5717]

I can really recommend getting the tpu shell. It makes the already good grip super comfy 😊 -I'm completely in love with this machine, best handheld emulator I've used ever.

[@tendosingh5682]

The only thing holding me back from getting one is a bigger screen without borders + oled and SD G3 or G2x

[@RivalGT]

Outrun2006 PSP will drops frames no matter the hardware/resolution, it probably has something to do with how it ran on original hardware, because it does the same there.

[@zockeromi1970]

Ayn handhelds have great ergonomics

[@WickedGamerCollector]

Yeah it's really great !

[@Jolly-Green-Steve]

They should make the right analogue stick either removable or place it lower and to the left so it doesn't hit your thumb while using buttons.

[@Horzzo]

I prefer this configuration over others because of the true d-pad on the bottom. Most older games just feel better with a true 4-way pad.

[@retroman--]

Very cool device. I'm slowly warming up to android handhelds. But don't think it will ever beat Linux devices for me.

[@patrickstoute4085]

Awesome review like always,well done my friend 👊🏼🫶🏼!

[@JohnStenborg]

…got mine as an early early bird as one of the first deliverys…never looked back…added lenovo legion go for pc emulation…never looked back…but kept my army of cfw new 3ds xl of course….looking back…

[@suhtangwong]

Is the higher versions worth it? Base is $300 and the rest are nearly another $100+.

[@suhtangwong]

I've been debating on this device for 2 months now. With the new ps vita version coming out, I might wait even longer. Just wish the screen was oled, instant buy.

[@TebiCr]

Great explanation, I don't know pretty much anything as far aa setting emulators and configure those handheld devices, so I would rather go with the cheaper ones, just plug and play kind of options works better for me and also the price, so thanks again Wicked

[@jakesmith5278]

If you know how to use an Andriod phone, you can use any of these. Steam Deck is Linus with a gaming mode.

[@hiepbenh88]

Why dont u use bypass charging while docking mode ? Can it output 1080p 144hz ? Thank for answer !

[@jakesmith5278]

Odin 2 my favorite. Haven't touch my Steam Deck for ages now, it seems.

[@mrrolandlawrence]

i loved my old dreamcast. i am going to get this. i miss those games. i really was put off with the lower spec handhelds requiring so many setting mods id be online all day trying to find out how to configure the thing. i want just pull out and play. i will get the max version.

[@nweditor875]

Great review might have to go for this since my steam deck gave me black screen of death.

[@HECTORMONTALVO-le9cn]

Not bad. Good review and cool video Wicked!👉🙂👈

[@WickedGamerCollector]

Thanks buddy !

[@sidsubba1414]

I’m jealous “ Wicked “ but I’m getting my Retroid pocket 4pro..but the Odin pro 2 is the best one. Not really that expensive, actually but the best emulator device right now in the market!!

[@WickedGamerCollector]

Don't be... Retroid Pro 4 is awesome. 🦾

[@markpalmercomedy]

What's the best home system for £100 or less ?

[@shigshug8581]

Finally a real emulation machine....

[@icons333]

I wonder if the oden 2 fits in the old dock it seems a bit better not including the extra storage?

[@mattdandrea9727]

it does not it's too wide, you'll need a different dock

[@mattdandrea9727]

it doesn't, it's too wide you'll need a different dock

[@BeamerTime354]

Selling my Odin pro and onexplayer mini 6800u since getting the Odin 2 max.

[@AkagiRedSun]

Definitely a base model is more than capable for the games I want to play. I’m just using this to play PSP to GameCube so no need extra ram and I don’t care much about aesthetic of color options either

[@Ryutai7]

Amazing and thorough video, thank you! Sub'd

[@joelgrebinsilvestri]

FOR GBA games is worth it? the screen ? i want to play RPG and pokemon games .

[@MarioMania05]

Can you please set to 4:3 Consoles it's annoying seeing most like PS2 streatched

[@panavpasricha]

Please show a super affordable ps1 handheld

[@PreciousFew6110]

Miyoo Mini Plus, RG35XXH, RG35XXSP, RG35XXPlus.

[@pinocoppolino]

Absolutely, actually 😎

[@DeeJayOJTV]

very interesting one

[@mjdf122]

Steam Odin 2 and Retroid Pocket 4 Pro the way to go for everything

[@WickedGamerCollector]

Need that Retroid Pocket 4 Pro ... maybe that will be next one I review when i'm done with those other ones here. So i'm ready and up to date 😅

[@travismarshall3089]

Too much for me. I'm satisfied with my RPD4. Anything it can't play, I'll just stream it with Moonlight/Sunshine with shortcuts in Moonlight with boxart as well as even having gyro support. Hopefully, Odin 2 will go down in price after The Mini is released, but that doesn't really happen anymore! It used to be that old devices or devices that have gone through later revisions would become affordable after the fact. Not anymore, not the second hand market anyway.

[@FaysalSpirit]

Is it possible to play with two controllers (2 players) on the Odin 2 ?!

[@WickedGamerCollector]

Use Bluetooth connection ?

[@GamePlay_7860]

With Rog Ally you can emulate PS3/X360 with the cost of weight and size

[@raymxslappedyall1891]

dude you didn't even show off the amazing switch emulation it can do

[@nicholassanders527]

Outstanding video. Love all of your work. Best out there 💪🎮

[@ultimaweaponex7682]

You watched a entire 28 minutes video on 3 minutes ? Your strong, lol.

[@nicholassanders527]

@@ultimaweaponex7682 You are able to comment as you watch, it’s outstanding.

[@michaeladams9807]

I like this a lot 👍👍™️

[@gettin_lit6594]

These are nice decent performance but for the money i think a ateam deck is a better option..

[@DOBdaSOB]

The battery life on this is insane tho - not even a competition. 12 hours of hades to 4-6 hours on SD or OLED SD. And the size is so much more managable.

[@christographerx64]

The steam deck is massive and not really portable. If you are into retro gaming and like switch emulation this has a great form factor with a six inch screen (not tiny, not huge) and a battery that let's you play without worrying about power. Given it's internals it plays everything you throw at it upscaled without having to really worry about configuring it (switch being the exception, but it's also current gen).

[@GiulioMa]

Should I wait for an Oled Odyn 3?!

[@WickedGamerCollector]

Nah.. Steam Deck 😮

[@GiulioMa]

@@WickedGamerCollector That's a fridge, not a handheld console😁

[@oussamahemimed2484]

Are all emulator games included?

[@WickedGamerCollector]

They are android based. Emulators needs to be bought through the Playstore.

[@PhillipJackson-rl5ty]

Looks premium 😅

[@pabloezequielgomez7471]

Umm i think if it down $50 the base and the pro model i will buy one.

[@pkpkpkok]

8gb ram can run yuzu well?i dont know why my iqoo12 can not run well and always lag+freeze

[@fuselito1421]

Hi Gaming Enthusiasts I love mine👍😄 I pick the pro transparent blue during the indi campain. Thers not many days since i have it and not using it! Lately i do a lot of lan streaming from my gaming pc over moonlight/sunshine and it werks great with odins wifi6☺️I allso own a steam deck, a hacked vita, and handfull of the cheaper models. But the Odin is clear the most played. I was really disapointet with the decks ps3 performance and this was biside wiiu and xbox the stuff i want use it for! But most of ps3 games are unplayabel only some 2d and light 3d games played close to normal speed. I use Emulation Station as the frontend and it looks geeat. Some of the Themes probabli ported over from the Desktop pc edition have realy small letters and are not for use on smaller screens. But in future themes made for android will come out and change the look again. I only can say i dont regret buying the odin 2 pro its such a great device😘 i love it Take care guys Greetings from Switzerland Fuselito

[@omarvalderrama1314]

This handheld is compared with the steam price this has happened b4 in the 90 s n company s still t don't learn from the failure or mistakes don't do wt others do cuz it won't end up gud

[@CalvinDebarros]

The 556 def plays ps2 idk wat u talking about

[@staysharp2453]

18:22 This game is one of the biggest reasons for people to buy a PsVita man, you should have played a little more, come on.

[@mtfbwm1796]

The Wookiepedia thing is so low for Disney to do and a final straw. If the show's writers could only be bothered to do basic research they would avoid contradicting canon material. What kind of people are they hiring for their projects, or are they just using AI?

[@RusuAlex-y7r]

WoW

[@geniussnake497]

Love your accent :-)

[@Xen0gears515]

Almost bought this but instead went for retro pocket 4. I would have bought this if i didn't care about the size

[@guardianali]

450 bucks for a snapdragon??? For that might as well get the Steamdeck or Rog Ally with proper Ryzen APUs, waaaay more powerful, and can do way more.

[@TBMartin]

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 is actually more powerful than the APU inside the Steam Deck. £450 for a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 device is actually a really good price when compared to most smartphones with the same SOC. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 is on par with an AMD 6000 APU

[@harleyn3089]

@@TBMartin The Z1 Extreme ROG Ally is about 30% faster than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Also, there's no software available for Android that takes advantage of that amount of power. There are no emulators for PS3 or Wii U or XBox 360 for example, and there are also no AAA games that aren't shrunk down to be widely accessible on mobile.

[@TBMartin]

@@harleyn3089 Tell me something I don't know lol You forgot to add that there is no Sega Model 1,2 or 3, no TeknoParrot, or even a decent standalone emulator for Atair Jaguar for Android. I'm not saying Android is the better platform to emulate on when X86 is a far better platform. I'm simply correcting the misinformation that a Steam Deck is more powerful than a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 device.

[@harleyn3089]

@@TBMartin I had to look up TeknoParrot. I've never tried that one. Looks fun. ;-)

[@KyleRuggles]

$300 for the base snapdragon 8 gen 2, that's a DEAL! Try finding a phone with that processor and built in controls etc, and it's portable... and it has a killer battery life.

[@colophus1735]

I know it's not NEEDED. But having a 120hz display would be a big difference for people who also like playing the android games!

[@ArtistCameron]

It's very expensive

[@Dr.Akakia]

If you want a handheld gaming device, save your money and buy Steam Deck instead these devices

[@FaysalSpirit]

Good try but Noooooo 🤪

[@TBMartin]

Ayn Odin 2 Max owner here and I've already moved on. It's a great device in principle but once you own one you start to realise that all is not great. Hardware is fine but let down by software. I'm a retro gamer as well as a modern gamer so I own games on Android too. Can I play most of the games I own even though the hardware is powerful enough? No, I own many games that simply won't install on the Odin 2 because of the lack of compatibility. I have to side load them. That's ok for me but for others it might be above their skill level so I can't recommend this handheld to anyone.

[@ReigningSemtex]

That is a valid point it seems ayn didn't get any proper google certification which stops some games being compatible with the odin 2 I can't think of many examples but I know wreckfest is definitely 1 of them and apparently terraria is another like you I sideloaded wreckfest but this definitely seems like something ayn could fix with an update, will they though who knows. Not a deal breaker for me I absolutely love my odin 2 max but play store compatibility is a blemish on an otherwise great device.

[@TBMartin]

@@ReigningSemtex Great minds think alike. Wreckfest is one of the games I was thinking about. Games like Trials of Mana is another game that springs to mind that is not compatible with the Odin 2 but is more than enough to run it. Since the death of Yuzu & Citra, there is really no reason in my opinion to use Android for emulation/gaming when X86 is a far better platform.

[@rodrigocoronado5248]

Nah, Citra can play most 3DS games at 3x+ resolution. There is a fork called Lime3DS that are doing a good job. Also there are a lot of Switch games that are fully playable with the latest Yuzu emulator.

[@2brokegamers664]

hey wicked! would you be willing to sell like the cheaper odin or loki for a good price? id pay for shipping! let me know brother if not its ok i wouldn't even ask, but no one in West Virgina has these for sale and i cant just up and leave on a 3 to 4 hr trip for a decent handheld. i have a V2 switch but i want something for emulation like ps2 and GameCube my laptop will only do up to ps1 and n64

[@chengliang9532]

ThIs handhold can do much better just put oled 4k or higher display and 1 or 2 terrabite memory and 32 or higher ram memory and bigger display,that is no problem if you do higher price.
