My RG353V has a screen issue. It constantly tries to drop my notification bar on the android sign but also fails to function on touch functions, I have everything I want on it but now I can't play anything because all it wants to do is pause games and drop notifications. I've seen a ton of issues with the screen on reddit, none pertaining to my exact issue and now it's basically just fucked

[@MrBubblecake]

Do NDS games run on Linux as well as they run on Android or is it worth the extra $50 if I plan on playing NDS games? I’m only getting this device to play Pokémon ROMs on it. My Iphone is extremely outdated (IPhone 11) and it’s having trouble running NDS ROM hacks, whenever I go below 50% battery, the game starts to slow and the directional pad begins to “catch” randomly stopping me from walking. My biggest fear is that I buy the cheaper version, and my Pokémon NDS ROMs still run poorly.

Pros and cons after living with RG353V for a few weeks. Linux is good for instant gaming sessions, and much more comfortable to use than Android. But both on stock OS and ArkOS I got random freezes in menu, so that reset button is there for a reason. HDMI works better on Linux, because on Android screen gets strethced and also doesn't turn off on the console, so the battery drains faster. I use Android only for some simple android games, youtube and standalone emulators.

I'd definitely recommend you get your own SD card for the roms. It's super easy, one you put the SD card in (formatted as fat32) it will create all the correct folders on the drive.

It's too big, and their goal of making an ergonomic shape makes it very uncomfortable for many users. It's over engineered and kind of ugly. Also the hall effect sticks they used aren't very good, sadly. They turn poorly. I just wanted something smaller. Keep in mind that the price is different if you purchase through Aliexpress instead of direct from Anbernic. I paid $120 for my RG353V and it included 128gb worth of stuff. The cheapest RG405V you're going to find is like $160 with 64gb. The only thing the RG405V has over the RG353 is it's ability to run Gamecube/PS2 games... That's it. And it runs them very poorly. So why wouldn't you get the more portable, comfortable, and affordable option? Neither run Saturn games well either. I'd personally wait for a more powerful RG353V to come out in the future and skip the 405V completely. Or just get a 353V now if you want something compact and you don't care about the more modern consoles. Which wouldn't be very enjoyable on the RG405V anyhow.

@@purrpocalypse The 405v has a 4" screen, not 3.5"... Has a Octa core @ 2.0Ghz, not a Quad core @1.8Ghz... Has 4GB of ram, Not 2GB... Has Bluetooth 5.0, Not 4.2, Has a 5500mAh battery, not a 3500mAh.. Has 128GB eMMC built in, not 32GB... Has Android 12, Not 11... Plus a nice Mali G52 GPU!! And Hall Effect sticks are the way too go !! The included cards aren't recommend too use.. And who doesn't wanna run Gamecube, Ps2, Wii and 3DS ! (or those harder too run n64, android, sega titles) .. this thing won't even run a single ps2,gamecube or wii game...

[@purrpocalypse]

@@MarioMadness1 But it's too big. You're missing the point. Also hall effect sticks are great, but NOT the ones in the 405V - They're bad! Also the Gamecube/Ps2/etc games run really poorly on the 405V, making it not worth the extra money. They will lag and it won't be fun. You're much better off waiting for a new version in 1-2 years instead of purchasing it.

Are the games free when you buy this device ?

[@Restalgia]

Games come preloaded on the SD card

[@chousoibam9872]

Can i play with my friend multiplayer😢

[@saiyan_princestudios9790]

I got the + and love it but kind of regret it too. No n64 bc no joystick. 🕹️ you can custom map it but it’s a pain. Will probably get this or the h for the 3D games

[@ffcuk63]

But i got the vs for 19£ oled 1tb with a case

[@NoRamNobiosNoService]

Great video

[@briellegripp7878]

So how many games come preloaded on the device? And can you do a video on how to upload custom games

[@goblinslayer77]

I like my VS better then the V only because I didn't want a all in one console. I just wanted something to play only old hand helds on and the VS is awesome for that. Playing PS1 and some 64 titles is just a really cool bonus. I got my VS for 80$ and I seen the V for 120$ so I saved 40$. If you want to buy a all in one I would recommend a psvita because you get the nice option of a OLED screen an vitas in my area run anywhere from 100-150$. Just food for thought.
