What You Need To Know About The Powkiddy X70

[@caposolomon8745]

I have the X70 and I like it a lot. I like the big screen and I like that it is so light I can take it anywhere. I usually take it with me on a trip and I love playing Pokemon on it

[@ChronikSpartan]

Yeah I can see it working well for that

[@B1221C]

You get what you pay for... I bought one and didn't care for it so I gave it to a friend's kid and the child thinks its the hottest thing.

[@ChronikSpartan]

That's amazing! Love it 👍

[@tegrityfarms4975]

The powkiddy x55 is one of the best bang for the buck handheld out rn

[@staticshocker69]

Is yours still alive? Mine died a week after the seller's warranty ran out.

[@ilysen]

Mine still going strong since Oct 2023 and I just put in Hall effect sticks running rocknix

[@olddadagamer]

​@@staticshocker69was it just the micro SSD?

[@barelyfamousofficial]

It does have ita place. I just got mine today (paid 50usd) I got it to put in my toolbox at work to kill time during down time. Ita cheap enough if I break it, it's whatever. Plenty of games prw loaded in it to choose from. I have ran through some of my favorites today since I got it to see how they run and they have run flawlessly (so far) It definitely does feel cheap, and the buttons are definitely trash, but for 50 bucks I dont know how much quality you expect. I mean there arw other handheld I really want. Especially ones that can play N64 and ps2. But I'm not ready to drop 350 plus pn a handheld I'm only going to use from time to time. This x70 hits the mark for what I got it for. Something cheap I can play some classic games pack in a handheld where I don't need to bluetooth a controller (like I did on my phone) just toss it in the toolbox and it's there to play with when I want to kill some time. And when it eventually gets wrecked..mm. it was only 50 bucks. If it even lasts a year it was worth the buy. Just don't expect too much from something so cheap.

[@Queen.Sindel]

Hello i got mine and it doesn't have any preinstalled games? Is that how its supposed to be? Empty

[@ChronikSpartan]

Does it have an SD Card with it? They usually come on there

[@Queen.Sindel]

@@ChronikSpartan just found out the seller didnt include it or somebody took it 😮‍💨 sigh.

[@rickshaw3044]

Anyone know if you could "jailbreak or Homebrew" this? I wonder what this could do unlocked...

[@ChronikSpartan]

As far as I know there isn't any homebrew for it :(

[@adamc.2230]

that thing's new? didn't they release the exact thing like 2 years ago?

[@marknathankencruz2740]

Hello aside form the powkiddy x70 are there any console that are cheap but also decent? preferably under 23 dollars

[@ChronikSpartan]

The Datafrog S20 is a good option

[@XOr-f4t]

Bonjour, je ne parviens pas à lancer le jeu: (quackshot starring donald duck, megadrive) comment faire ?

[@ChronikSpartan]

Sorry I've not tried that to be able to comment, although most megadrive games work quite well

[@ashwatraja9692]

Can we play Pokemon switch games and do we play them through Yuzu?

[@Kooaid-9]

I highly doubt this device is capable of playing switch games lol it’s $40-50

[@foolio06]

Im after a budget handheld can u suggest one that will play n64 Mario please could you let me know if you know . thank you

[@ChronikSpartan]

There's plenty out there these days. Depends on your price range

[@idk-p6v6u]

@@ChronikSpartandoes that play any fifa games

[@roninstars7700]

I cannot save the game with in game and save data at the menu, anyone got similar problems?

[@ChronikSpartan]

Honestly mate, these devices are just riddled with issues

[@PatrickNeuber]

it might be cheap... but im up for the 7" screen. And speaking of trashy sound... did anyone tried it with headphones?

[@ChronikSpartan]

Yep, screen size is pretty good. I've heard people getting them for £20, might be worth looking out for. I must admit though I didn't try headphones

[@olddadagamer]

spent so many hours on twisted metal as a kid lol.. that was nastalgia right there

[@ChronikSpartan]

Haha, that's the best thing about these retro handhelds 😊

[@charlesparsons3950]

Yeah that last device is post to emulate ps1 where the joysticks hard pass on both flaming garbage handhelds

[@ChronikSpartan]

There are definitely better options

[@KarateEMouse]

can you put your own roms on it?

[@download1987]

Yes, I recently saw a tutorial just search up " how to put your games on X70" and it shows a video by tesico communications

[@sa6438]

2:49 Game name?

[@ChronikSpartan]

Comic Zone

[@hazeydaze8396]

IMO The design choice to look like the switch is NOT because its targeted a6tht 4:33 but TBH IMO but more so for the unsuspecting parents or grandparents that see it listed on Amazon like i have as a "Nintendo game Handheld game player" that buy it for Xmas & Bdays thi king its a real NSwitch . Which is kinda like the knockoff PuffcoPeakPro listed as a "Peak herbal diffuser: for aromatherapy" since cant sell vapes

[@Jackson-bh1jw]

all the channels flaming the 16:9 of this device just for some likes xd plus it flames the price not beign cheaper ololololololol

[@曾左昔]

可以在设置里面设置等比例画面

[@ChronikSpartan]

谢谢，我没发现

[@sv2697]

Just order mine for $25. Hopefully its acceptable. And $25 usd = 20 pounds.

[@ChronikSpartan]

That's a really good price and worth it for that!

[@mbjac]

I'm getting some dark forces 2 beard vibes...

[@mizt3r_420]

Am about to purchase it tomorrow

[@mbjac]

@@mizt3r_420 dark forces? I think it's abandonware

[@GeekyN8]

You need a warning before playing sound. God that was an awful exp 😅 it sounds like this is a device for the bin.

[@ChronikSpartan]

Haha, it's been a great distractor for the kids :)

[@gobofoobg]

커스텀 os 허용하지 않아서 구동되는 게임이 많지 않음 😢 powkiddy 커스텀 os 지원하지 않으면 소비자한테 외면 받을꺼야

[@ChronikSpartan]

Totally agree, this is a big issue

🤨

[@stevep8217]

every time he says "powkiddy reminds me of a girl on snapchat "like ravebunny"

[@ChronikSpartan]

Haha!

[@PcMeowster]

No sticks, smaller screen, chonky. Great "alternative".

[@ChronikSpartan]

The user experience and emulation is far better though

[@thaiboypsp3000]

Switch at home

[@ChronikSpartan]

Switch Off, lol

[@Danilo-f3e]

You are comparing a $60 device with a $300 device, REALLY

[@ChronikSpartan]

They're comparing themselves to that console with their design choices.

[@gutyourtrust]

Shave it off mate

[@ChronikSpartan]

Haha, you like it smooth?

[@jarrodcodes]

Atrocious background music is distracting

[@ChronikSpartan]

Noted ;)
