[@BrentSaulic]

Thanks! great review. have the 2, 3 look great in your hand. I purchased the 3 after watching your review, the screen size and form is my major draw.

[@MrCed122]

I was really close to buying it when the preorders began, all my infos were entered and I only needed to confirm and... I didn't. I already have a Pocket 2 and Pocket 2+ (the Upgrade Kit to be more specific) and while the price is really fair for what you get, paying almost $200 CAD for what is essentially the same handheld I already have with a bigger screen was tough sell, especially since we'll probably get a Pocket 3+ in a few months. The screen resolution is also really weird, it can't scale anything cleanly, you'll get black bars or non-integer scaling on every consoles. If that came out at the same time as the Pocket 2+ like it was supposed to, it would've been a no-brainer, but with so much more competition like the RG353P, the "incoming" Ayn Loki Zero and the Odin Lite (which, granted, isn't readily available yet), it's in a weird spot where you can get basically the same for cheaper and a lot better for not that much more. It's a good middle ground if you're getting into the scene, but for the others, it doesn't make much sense. Instead of that, I bought an RG351V on sale for $110 CAD to replace my RG351P and I'll wait for the next Retroid Pocket that will hopefully be able to play more Android games and PS2/GC for real (or buy the Miyoo P60 if that thing ever come out). I also set up my old Huawei P20 with a Razer Kishi, it works fine, the only problem is it doesn't have the best GPU, so PS2 / GC is still kinda difficult and the battery life is kinda atrocious.

[@QORXamq]

i think miyo mini v2 is a good start to retro world ...its a perfect size fits in pocket with good coverage on emulation....price is good 50 to 65 dolars , screen looks good, key and build quality is amazing and with and without onion os is amazing and you can play it out of box ...

[@ekinteko]

Depends on the price. Here's how I would rate the POCKETABLE devices as such: PowKiddy V40: $30-$45 Miyoo Mini: $45-$60 Nintendo new3DS Modded: $60-$75 Anbernic RG 351p: $75-$90 PowKiddy RGB 10 Max1: $80-$95 Retroid RP2+: $95-$110 Retroid RP3: $105-$120 PS Vita Slim Modded: $120-$150 GPD Win-2 Cheaply: $200-$250 Used Samsung S10+ (QSD 855): $150 New Razer JungleCat Gamepad: $50 ....total price: $200

[@Ryan-Nowicki]

Fast charge so you can play and charge without dying, bigger better screen, android 11 out of box, two good joysticks with l/r3 buttons and a boost of memory seem worth it, my retroid has been an absolute unit.

[@voteDC]

The included Dolphin for Handhelds and the latest version of AetherSX2 let you lower the resolution below 1x. This can make games playable but you will be compromising visuals. Many PS2 titles end up looking like PS1 games but you can still enjoy them. I do find it funny that the Retroid Pocket 3 was made before the Retroid Pocket 2+. Makes you wonder if the fix for the RP3 screen issues was so simple why didn't they just fix it and release it. Surely that would have been no more expensive than creating the RP2+.

[@elemkay5104]

There have been massive improvements to AetherSX2. One game that got tested last year on RP2+ (Godhand) getting like 3-5 fps, is now running 20+ fps at full resolution and is fully playable. But for sure you can also drop the resolution for more demanding games.

I feel it's worth bringing up that with some settings experimentation and using PAL roms, you can get *some* Gamecube games to run decently well. But the quality you get varies from game to game, so it's only worth doing either for the games that are known to be able to get playable or if you find experimenting fun for any reason.

[@nsgames24]

I would love to get one seeing how I don't have the Pocket 2+ and I love the Pocket 3's form factor, but at the same time, I don't feel confident in this product having some issues that Taki talked about in his video. Not to mention, the specs are basically the exact same as the previous Retroid system and THAT system was $20 to $30 less than the Pocket 3. Honestly, I think it might be better for me to just wait on the Pocket 3+ maybe and see what they do with that.

For a Hundred ish… pretty decent entry level handheld. But a homebrew PSP or Vita gives you all the games on those consoles plus emulates all the classic Nintendo games pre N64. GameBoy Advance games are especially beautiful on the larger illuminated displays. Always keep an eye out for a used PSP or Vita.

[@proudtobegrumpy4969]

For the Dolphin stuff, you have to manually set the bundle (slightly different than the pre-set one that you can auto-download). I had to do it on the RP2+. It is disappointing to hear it doesn't play things much better than the RP2+ though. The chip upgrade had me hopeful.

Gonna be a while at this price range. But if you want to blow the smallest amount of money on the widest range of playable systems, go for a Miyoo Mini. I love mine more than my Retroid Pocket 2+. The RP2+ was almost unusable for me until I found a different front-end launcher (Daijisho) and broke in the rubber buttons a bit. Otherwise, I was dealing with constant crashes and a set of buttons that wore my hands out because it required a pound of pressure from my thumb to do a running jump in any game I was playing. The Miyoo barely required any config and let me pick-up-and-play far, far easier than the RP2+ ever has let me.

[@deadkennedy4848]

Honestly loved these kind of videos before I got a steam deck. Now I have one and I honestly couldn’t ask for anything else. It’s been eating up money and storage but not on new devices. Best of luck to everyone waiting and know that it is indeed worth the wait.

[@GeekTherapyRadio]

I have the 2+ and ordered the 3 last night. The 2+ is spectacular for $100. My only two nit-picks are with the screen. It is absolutely perfect for 8 bit games and even 16 bit, but it is brutally small for anything high-res. Forget about cloud gaming unless hooked up to an external monitor. The screen is unmercifully small for ultra small text, menus, icons, etc in modern games. It is punishing to try and squint at hi-res games on the 3.5" screen. Again...for retro consoles with big blocky pixels, it's perfect. The second nit-pick is that the screen doesn't dim NEARLY enough. It is torture trying to play in bed or a dimly lit room. The lowest brightness is still blinding in the dark. That coupled with trying to play hi-res games...it's a nightmare. Again, outstanding for low-res games in a normally lit environment. I'm hoping the Pocket 3 with its larger screen will make hi-res gaming much more palatable, and if it actually dims properly, that'd be icing on the cake.

[@GeekTherapyRadio]

@@papa_NCF Great to hear!!!

[@venoshockk]

This might be the one that gets me to buy a larger portable emulator. I have the Retroid Pocket Go, which I love, but it's basically just a GBA emulator for me and I think I want something a little beefier. The Switch Lite-esque form factor is really selling me

[@FrootNinja]

btw I love how you have been doing the sponsored ads, and the dog was a nice touch there, I was like DAWWW puppers!

[@DaSm0lBean]

Because I prefer to play my PS2/GameCube games on their native systems, this system does everything I want it to do. The DS emulator would be perfect for the old games I can’t find for good prices (and the touch screen is what I need) And if I want 3DS games I have a native 2DS Xl system I can jailbreak. While leaving my main system alone. This just works better to me. The button placement doesn’t bother me so much since I just need something that can easily play older DS games and it has a little bigger of a screen which I like. 8/10 this is gonna be my new emulator. I’ll still keep my RP2. But it just won’t be used. As often

[@TDAdvocate]

Honestly my personal daily driver for emulation is the New 3DS XL. Still looking into how plausible the Steam Deck is for more modern console emulation. But for now, the N3DSXL is by far the best of the best in my personal opinion.

[@RandomizationShow]

I use steam deck, a snapdragon phone and an old 2DS over my N3DS due to being the most comfortable handheld on earth. For 16 bit games and below I'll never use anything but the 3DS due to my injects via NSUI having non-existent input lag. May be old but still a champ!

[@RandomizationShow]

Also I assume u mean 360/PS3 emulation for steam deck. Some games will work pretty well but I've noticed every game from that era I've been interested in has had a PC port (vast majority of them at least) and steam deck will pretty much play any 2007-16 game, sometimes with graphics/performance tweaks. Though if it isn't supported by the deck itself you can dualboot into windows and play that way.

[@bennbutters2578]

Other than my LB being stuck when it got here, this is everything I’ve wanted. It’s much more comfortable to me than the 2+ and the screen makes it far better for game streaming along with L3 and R3, it’s perfect and they didn’t charge 240 for it like some other company’s would

[@tdata545]

I went with the way less powerful, RG 353P as my next upgrade from the RG350M I was playing with. TOTALLY worth it. 3 storage locations, dual boot OS, and can play up to PS1 well. I know not great. Can do some dreamcast oh and N64 plays pretty well too. But that SNES controller form factor is nice and android is meh on it. I'm an android user for phones and tablets.

heard you talk about never hearing ppl talk about ring fit but like you said its one of the best games i played on te switch so far and i played more ten 50 games on switch in a year time playing ring fit is a big help when i coulnd not jump on my bike becous of injeries and stil work out while gaming, with personal exprianse i can say this is a game that wil 100% improve your health with playing a game ( if you use it 1,2 hours a day)

[@javierpicard5532]

Whats up, love the channel! So which would you use as number one? This or the analog pocket? I imagine this one is much cheaper than the AP. Sounds like it has some issues and not sure how infeel about the dice roll on the screen. Perhaps modding a 3ds is still high on my list.

[@thebeluvdtrex]

I literally ordered the wrong color yesterday and emailed them to change it for me and they did the next day ON SUNDAY no hassle. Good customer service in my books. I mean this is emulators we talking about

[@WarmFusion]

How were you able to take off the Starbucks decal that was on your apron?

[@leefamily5986]

The retro handheld market is bizarre. This is one of the most bizarre to me, I have Taki Udon telling me this isn't a good one and he skipped it and now I have Bob Wulff telling me it's great.... What the hell do I do in this situation???

[@Sithir]

1:11 does anyone know the name of the handheld on the right

[@prosto1076]

Maybe Switch Lite

[@voidseaker]

between getting a phone specifically for this, modding a 2ds, or getting this which do you feel to be easier/better overall

Mod a vita

[@NeonPixels81]

Adding a second to modding a Vita. The Vita is probably the best handheld Nintendo should have made but didn't. Barring that, there's nothing like playing on original hardware. I like the Vita because it has solid hardware and a loooooong battery life. Vita can play MOST Nintendo consoles but anything with Mode7 tends to chug, so for those games I prefer to go to my 2DS LL. I have the Black/Blue 2DS LL modded and loaded up with games (digital versions of games I own) and it's a dream. The only benefit to a dedicated emulation machine is that you don't have to do any legwork yourself on modding a device, but the original hardware is almost always a more satisfying experience.

[@trashpanda502]

@@Gallotti No its buggy and the vitas library is so small

[@jesusbarrera6916]

phone.... it's going to be the most versatile and powerful

[@sarafoxy]

A lot of GameCube titles and PS2 run just fine. Are you using the correct version of Dolphin? There are various videos of people running these games.

[@mykiisubtle]

Ordered a Black 3 GB. Can't wait.

[@osman.kameric]

Great device! On another note, what's up with the 24 fps videos? I checked and it seems some (if not all) of your videos are @24. Maybe by choice?

[@eddyhg8098]

Taki rules! Great video as always

[@tetchedskate3366]

So what I’m hearing is that waiting to buy this until they actually have to start producing new ones is the best option

[@Me-23158]

On the website it says it’s a preorder shipping in August. Do they mean August 23’? Or is this an old message from before August 22’?

[@piehnoharmony]

How is the DPad control? Is it as bad as the Anbernic RG351M where it takes 100 tries just to shoot a hadoken and 50 tries just to jump diagonally?

[@warforlight805]

Hello I have a few questions that need to be answered before I can buy this. If you could please answer that would be GREATLY appreciated. 1. Does it have Bluetooth audio support and does it lag? 2. When playing on hdmi out is there noticeable lag? Thank you!

[@kalemroseland7973]

I'm still waiting for good GameCube emulation at a budget price so when that day comes sign me up until then and even after I will continue to watch your reviews thanks

[@DARKTRUTH160]

SBCs have become powerful enough to emulate and play everything now . For what they charge for these things they can be and should be much better.

[@unanimoustuba_]

I want the Miyoo mini since it’s so small I can slip it in my pocket and play it at school without getting in trouble (not during class) but should I just fork up the extra money to buy the retroid or should I stick with the Miyoo I can’t decide if it’ll be worth it

[@alexbeaird7290]

I've already got a RP2 (not the plus). I won't consider getting a new device until one of these companies makes something that can play GameCube for less than 100 dollars. But even then I've switched over to using my phone for emulation and that is even better than the best, most expensive options on the market.

[@danielmcphee2546]

Would you recommend something like this for someone who doesn't know anything about emulators? Or perhaps something better and user friendly?
