I really would like a vertical form factor (clamshell option) handheld with 3:2 aspect ratio, 720p or higher integer multiple of GBA 240p.

If it can play some N64 but not all that's plenty powerful. I don't want a big heavy machine, I'm looking for portable.

Basically, I'm looking for a Miyoo Mini v4 but in 3:2 aspect ratio. My understanding is that no such device is currently on the market. Does anyone know of any confirmed or rumored future handheld releases that fit this description??

I just got the console for Christmas today, I plugged in the tf card to my puter and I see that there are folders that are named after console names (n64 etc.) and there is an empty folder called pc98. Does that mean on my console I can play pc-98 games?

Sorry if this is the wrong subreddit to post this in.

ROMs stopped booting on my RG35xxsp

I did take my sd card out to transfer some ROMs to my new rg40xxv (working just fine)

But now ROMs will just boot me back to The Home Screen on my rg35xxsp

I reflashed Knulli onto sd 1 and still getting the same

Also, my theme and settings keep getting reset upon restarting the system.

Any insight is HIGHLY appreciated

Hello,

I just got this system, and I've had to fix a few unrelated issues, but I cannot for the life of me understand how to get the FN button working. While playing Castlevania: Symphony of the Night I am unable to use the R or L buttons on the back. While researching this, I found that the FN button does not do anything, or doesn't appear to. Does anyone know a fix? Apologies if this has been answered, I tried to search for the issue but am not seeing a fix for it. If it helps the front of my K36 does not say Kinhank as I've seen on some devices.

I am very new to this type of device so apologies in advance if I don't understand a fix right off the back. As detailed as possible would help me greatly!

I was looking for an upgrade (maybe not much from this price point) from an Anbernic RS-97 I bought a few years ago. I was watching a few videos on youtube and think the Anbernic RG35XX H might fit the bill. The main reason I want a newer device is because the RS does not have any analog sticks and I wanted two of them for PS1/N64 games. Does anyone have any recommendations that are would be better around this price point? Maybe the RG CubeXX or a different brand entirely? My budget is lower because I want to save for a new PC build I'm planning.

The game of the month taunts me at the end, incomplete it lays.

I got drastic on the firestick and when I press load a game it just goes back to the home screen. Does drastic work properly on the firestick?

Any help appreciated.

Happy new year.

As an Xmas gift, my buddy gave me a Miyoo A30 with Spruce + around 16k games installed on it. The games all run fine, with a few predictable exceptions.

Anyways, my problem is that only a small handful of games allow me to save; regardless of whether I try to save in-game or create a save state. I suspect that it's a routing issue, perhaps. But I wouldn't even know where to start. My experience with emulators begins and ends with what's available on the Playstore, such as MyBoy and PPSSPP, which are infinitely more intuitive. So naturally I am feeling pretty out-of-my-depth.

I'd also like to add that I've already tried Googling the problem, and may very well have scrolled past an answer to this question already. But I wouldn't even know because this is a whole new OS for me. Also the aforementioned friend is abroad at the moment, which is why I am consulting the Hivemind instead.

Hi! I’m brand new to Anbernic’s stock OS. I learned how to turn on quick shutdown so when I turn the game back on it boots me into exactly where I left the game. However, I can’t seem to figure out how to do this when I want to switch between games. The “save” option in the menu seems to use the game’s save options and when I restart the game I go through the game’s loading screen. What am I missing here?

First of all happy NYE fellow SBC enjoyers! I can't for the life of me find my save games from Duckstation and Dolphin on my RG Cube. Anybody knows where I should look? Apologies if this has been asked before; can't seem to find it!

i was playing yakuza like a dragon ps4 version on ps5 and the game kept going to ps5 home screen then back to game and then back to home screen in a laggy loop. i closed the game and all fine. i played battlefield hardline and it had no issues so im sure its game related. can this damage the ps5 software or hardware or its only game related?

so i have this X12 console for a long time and basically i know it's trash but it was cheap and it works somehow. anyways i thought about somehow getting some other OS on it because the one it has is very annoying for me. i don't really care if it gets bricked tho if there's a 99% chance i won't do it. so does anyone have an idea on how this could be done?

Has anybody else been experiencing Wifi issues with their RG Cube XX or other H700 devices?

Mine seems to connect and then disconnect. Along with that my Retro Achievements haven't been working.

This has happened with both muOS and ROCKNIX.

EDIT: I don't have a problem with RetroAchievements on my Retroid Pocket 4 Pro.

I’ve been on the fence for months and I convinced myself to get it, but now that I saved up and have the money for it. I’m hesitant, because with a case and shipping it comes out to about $350 CAD.

I have a steam deck, a rg35xxsp but don’t have an android device and this one seemed really good. I also like how I can dual boot Linux because I’ve always wanted more performance out of my Linux devices.

So yah, I’m completely on the fence. I don’t wanna get this and then all the sudden the steam deck 2 gets announced or something.

What do you guys think? Is it even worth to get an android device or another one if I have a steam deck?

Hi. Simple question in the title. I have the collectors bug and currently own a Miyoo Mini+, A30, RGB30, RG35XX+, Vita, DS, 3DS, Steam Deck ... You get the idea.

So, I want to get another unit and have narrowed it down to the 40XXv or the Brick. They're quite similar in performance and both look great, which one would YOU get given the choice and seeing the units I currently own?

i'm looking into buying the TSP for my first handheld but connecting it to a monitor and playing local multiplayer would be kinda nice though. what is its best alternative that can play up to psp atleast?

already researched about retroid pocket 3+, but maybe there are other better/cheaper ones. thanks!

We're approaching the final few free game giveaways. Happy New Years to people in timezones that are already in 2025.

I'm expecting a powkiddy V10 in the next few days via aliexpress, however my eye has been taken by the Trimui Brick. So I've looked all over aliexpress and found some great deals but but I have this question that I can't find an answer for and I've looked over this forum to. Does the Trimui come with games pre loaded or do I need to by one with an SD card. Currently all the ones I've looked at say "No Card" when I'm the check out page. Thanks in advance

I grew up with GameCube, but never expanded outside of the Sonic, Mario Party, and Pokemon stuff. 🤣 Oh, and Smash Bros Melee, of course. I also played Metroid Prime, and thought it was awesome, but would like to know what you guys would recommend! I'm getting an RP4Pro soon and would love to play more the catalogue! (Also forgot to mention I'm not into horror games at all 😅)

OpenEmu is great, but seems like it's Mac only, and the R36S is using RetroArch, but they both seem to work fine, and the R36S is great with all its different themes and controls.

1

First problem is, I've used OpenEmu for a LONG time, and have tons of save states for games in my library.

I tried adding the .sav files for SNES that OpenEmu keeps separately, which are battery saves, into the SNES folder in R36S, but seems like those don't work.

As for other systems that use memory cards, is there a way to transfer the save states into the device so I can pick up where I left off with all these games?

2

Second problem is, because I'm using MacOS, when I add files to the SD card and open them on the device, it has all the files that Apple uses for whatever they're for (thumbnails or quickview or something), so I have duplicates of all my games with ._ at the beginning of the name.

Is there a way to get rid of those files? I think since I'm on Mac, I can't actually see that file, since the OS combines it with the real file in Finder.

I own the Powkiddy x55, among others, and it has two USB-C ports on top. One is for charging and OTG, and the other is for host devices (TV, monitor). Am I the only one who thinks it would be a good idea to allow the host port to also power the device without charging the battery to keep the battery from degradation if you just want to play plugged in?

is there anyway I can edit these display filters in the anbernic emulator? i would use since it’s better in every way, but my volume button is broken causes issues and causes issues.
