    Used to have a few retro emulators ever since the rg300 days, I even had the original odroid go, I got turned off them around the rg353 stage, before that I had many powkiddy and anbernic products and they were great. I feel with the constant “boom” and new designs, a lot of quality checks aren’t done and as a result I received a rg353v that would freeze soon as you hit r1 in any game and glitch out. I also had a retroid 3+ which also had a stack of physical problems rendering it near unplayable for most games. After a few bad experiences it makes it extremely difficult in buying myself another new device

    • @batpixel
      @batpixel  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah good points. I definitely recommend people have buyer protection on these kinds of devices. But if I were to recommend one to you, I’d say go with the Miyoo Mini Plus (not the regular Miyoo Mini) the Plus is very high quality and if you upgrade to OnionOS software on a new Sandisk card, you’ll have very good performance from both the software and hardware. I reviewed that one too and I didn’t have much criticisms at all besides the Game Boy style speaker placement

    The unit charges fine with a standard A to C power cable. They never claimed to have fast charging and I don't think its an issue for the price.
    It's a good product. The only issue I found was was minor? light bleed at the bottom of the screen but only really noticeable on a black screen. As reported by enough people on reddit.
    Compared with the amazing game menu it's not going to bother me when you can adjust brightness and can't really see anything when playing
    Other manufacturers have this issue reported as high as a £150 Price point so its something I will keep an eye on

      RetroArch may be on mute while you’re in a game. Try very quickly clicking both joysticks at the same time (don’t hold them down) this will unmute. If it doesn’t work.. click the right joystick and hold it down, then quickly click the left joystick. If not, open RetroArch, settings, audio, output, audio and turn from on to off and then on again. If that doesn’t work, you have the option to factory reset in the device’s main menu under settings, danger zone, factory reset

    • @batpixel
      @batpixel  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That’s a very good question. If I was choosing between those 2, I’d have to decide if I was spending a lot of my time on newer games that use the sticks or not (or if I’d want to bring around a Bluetooth controller for the RG35XX Plus for joystick games) I’d probably choose the RGB30 overall if it was between the 2. But the RG35XX Plus would be a perfect choice for anyone wanting to play PS1 and older games in a Game Boy style mostly, it’s also more pocketable. The RGB30 isn’t very ergonomic as a brick shape lol but the square ratio screen is awesome and gorgeous

      The first thing I would try is to go into a game and go into your RetroArch menus, settings, audio, output, and try changing your drivers. Also check the other settings in the audio menu. There may be something weird that got changed in RetroArch itself
      Did you use new SD cards or the ones that came with the system? The cards are not reliable, but it does sound like a RetroArch issue to me. But I would suggest trying an update again, if not, try a fresh install of custom firmware made by the community (lots of videos out there on this for the RGB30) using new SD cards not the ones that came with it

      I would literally check the sound settings in the main menu. It tends to boot up with things shut off. I’d highly recommend installing a different custom firmware from the community on this. Lots of videos about installing new software on a new SD card for this device. It will be more reliable. Just make sure to backup your files from the old card if you need any of them later. If it still doesn’t work with the new card, it may be the device itself

      It seems like the RGB 30’s square screen is perfect for Game Boy generations. And arcade games and Pico-8 are amazing on it. It’s cheaper than the Retroid 2s. But the Retroid 2s is more ergonomic to hold and also has more power for Dreamcast & N64. It has a 4:3 ratio screen which is smaller. So it depends on what you want them for

    🛑I hope you see this, or anyone he knows how i can fix the rgb30 theme
    I reset my rgb30 to factory reset, after that OS theme became different (old rgb30 theme) and game list theme became agly
    I want to have back the same Os theme, (which is the same one you have in this video)
    Any suggestions plss 🥹

      It may be because you did a factory reset. Try connecting to wifi and updating your system. After the update hopefully you will have better theme options. You can also find people online who make themes available for download

    Hey, thanks for the black screen tip! I liked the vid and I'll sub if you can do me a quick favor - can you check if Sega genesis games are trying to open with N64 overlay and freezing after the update as well? Would you happen to know how to fix it?

    • @batpixel
      @batpixel  ปีที่แล้ว

      I just put on Sonic and there were no overlays because I turned them off in RetroArch, like I showed in the video. But if you’d like to change them, you can find them in the exact same place named ‘Overlay Preset’ and pick one from there. I tend to turn them off so I haven’t explored customizing them too much. But my tip in the video shows you where to find them

    The software is definitely the weak point on this device. I've had such a frustrating time, almost directly out of the box. I ran the update and, boy oh boy, it broke everything. I finally had to factory reset mine (when I could finally get it to start up) but almost deleted all my games before i did (TAKE OUT YOUR GAME SD CARD BEFORE FACTORY RESETTING!!!)

    • @batpixel

      That’s horrible. These seem to be hit or miss with people from what I’ve been reading. That’s why I mentioned PayPal as an example of buyer protection, these kinds of devices are awesome but production quality isn’t consistent
      Custom Firmware from the community on better SD cards such as Sandisk is generally the better way to go. I may revisit this one and make a video on it

    I am a beginner and I am not a computer professional, I order them and have games installed but they are really not great and very pixelated, not like everyone else's videos, I would have liked Mario and Pokémon , but how can I install them and where do you find them? and the system chip must do something or just leave it as it is. I'm from the old era of the gameboy with cartridge :/

    • @batpixel

      I would recommend following my guide in the video to update the system and see if that works. If your screen is having issues, you should return it for a new one as that does not sound normal. As for the games, I am not able to disclose that kind of information. But I would suggest trying to update your system to see if it fixes the screen issue
