Quick question, is it possible to play two players with this device?
We are travelling around this summer. This device looks like it will be easily portable and give kids quick and easy entertainment, in hotel rooms.
If killer instinct werks I'm getting one is it a 126gig
Hi man haw do you switch off and on safe thank you I've just ordered one hope it's good got lots of super computer x things and arcad
Got to get one to try 64 is dogy
this is just a pi zero or a pi zero 2 w in a fancy case its why its so smooth you can just make one for less money and no chinese back doors (this is not paranoid) they actually do not see a problem sneaking in back doors in a lot of things they sell its required in there country (its why there phones are banned in usa / uk )
You must have a full crate of those clone controller by now
Thanks for reviewing this Powkiddy Y6. For the price, you get lots. I read the comment section. Heating could be an issue. I agree with the comments. Open it up, and drill some
holes for the hot air to get released. This made me remember when my friend put his PS3
in a tight shelf area that enclosed the PS3. It cooked his PS3. Then my friend had to purchase a new PS3, but kept it in an open space, and had no problems after this due to
air circulation.
True man. Isn't the pro x better and more ReLiable. Some China stuff are too delicate. How much us this? Otherwise I'll just pay someone to modified my ps2 with alotes of games.
It's about damn time the smaller chips start evolving into something better! I've held off buying any new emulator console stuff for about two years. I am waiting on a cheap option to play PS2 games on my tv but alas, I am probably gonna put a Emu-Pc together sooner than that...
Good video!
I'm curious, have you ever found one with a good Sega CD library?
They have - look at what's possible on a Steam Deck, you're just not going to find those powerful, smaller chips in something cheap like this. You get what you pay for (generally) when it comes to tech. You can't expect the world for $50-100, proper emulation, particularly of newer systems requires a decent bit of CPU power.
I ordered one of the 500 gb cassette tape hdd from The Amazon and it came with them.
No, the best? so far was a super console X3. 117 games I think, but none of my favorites. Estsy has FD for a PS1 mini for two hundred. But you need to buy a mini first. That's a little $$ for a glorified toy. What sucks is I found a awesome tv stick that has the full genesis library for $80 delivered. Wtf? No love for the Sega CD I guess.
Emulation has literally never been anything but hardware intensive. It may looks easy today, but that's often because you are running software that was originally developed on/for a much less powerful machine 10+ years ago.
I saw your video and was so happy you put that fight night clip in there thats the reason i bought it
Good review I literally wanted a super compact n64. Didn't work saved me some money thanks
Just fired up mine and it ran that track on Mario Kart no problem at all.
And Ridge Racer 64 works fine. Most likely to be SD or data related rather then the stick.
Do in game saves work? like save files you select in the games menu?
@@SuguruMontanaive been reading up on that myself and what ive found is it may look like youre saving the game but youre actually not, the only save you actually have is the save state thing which isnt always reliable from what ive seen with PC steeamers so i cant imagine its any better foe a micro sized retro console.
Even if it plays a game like God of War that stick probably gets really hot and at that point how long will that HD gaming stick will last before it burns up. If these companies are going to make these HD tv sticks or Android Boxes need to put fans in these things to keep them cool.
Maybe this stick could be modified with a heatsink and fan..
A new version of the firmware has been released and now its a lot better than it was corrected aspect ratios configure your controls multiple save slots , faster psp emulation and nice background music in the menu system
Oh yeah? So you can play in 4:3? That's a really good news!
@@drze7910 yes
Where can this new version be found? And those who order it now from the website, do they get it already with this new version?
@@dadou193 my latest batch did not come with the new version but the last batch did ot might be worth asking the merchant before you order.
@@glensmith1979 i forgot to ask: did multiplayer work well with the two controllers? Do the two controllers work at the same time? Thx
2 Games I would like you to play on your next plug an play that are notorious for not running well or having bad rom tips are Monster Truck Madness N64 & Vigilante 8 Second Offence ...
N64 emulation in general on these Linux devices with babys first processors never work right.
Vigilante 8 1&2 was on the PS1 as well so you could find it on it as well
Bummer,I really want to play dk64 ,I'd play on the switch but I don't have good wifi
I had a 64 with dk64 but my grandma boxed it up and squirreled it away and forgot what she did with it😢
@@blackcat09tails55 that's rough like the Elite in Halo says IT IS WELL HIDDEN
I have this system and I love it. I have only run into issues with 2 games not loading. Some people do not have the time to create their own. It's 40 bucks and plug and play, what else could you ask for. I am not a purist , so it's the great for passing the time and the game selection is amazing.
I dunno, man. The fact that it can't even play Mario Kart 64 without taking a dump is a major demerit against it in my eyes, even for just casual play.
I understand there is a version of Emuelec online that doesn't have restricted setting options.. maybe.. and I do mean maybe, the Emuelec could be replaced with the unlocked version and see how much the games could be tweaked then.
@@arnox4554 Mine plays mario kart extremely well.
Mine fried in about 30 minutes.
I am not interested in you going viral I wanted you to show what Atari games it had , 2600,5200,7800 , lynx,Jaguar? We are all not nintendo, sega fans
Thank u for reviewing this. Keep up the awesome work. Love your brutal honesty.❤❤❤
if I had this, I would try to open it up/cut it open to at least drill a few holes through both sides of it, to help it breathe, I did that to a old OTA HDTV Converter box I had that would get real hot, Also, love the "This Device has no built in game programs, Users need to install by themselves" they ain't foolin anyone 🤣 lol
Ah yes. Luigi Speed being the ultimate test for emulation. The video screen on the wall is very hard to get right.
I'm wondering if it's just overheating, might work better with a case mod
You keep saying to build your own. I've tried both Retroarch and Coinops and just can't get any of it to download correctly. That's why people like me need these preloads.
I want a box for my kids to use that they can't f-up. I've done custom builds but there is always something that I miss that causes issues.
I've seen a lot of that exact box with same electronic devices sold by different companies that I believe put their own variety of emulator consoles on it. In other words, I think the company that makes the actual device is separate from the companies that add the roms to them.
Nope. I got into the ppsspp menu last night, my friend had bought one despite me advising not too. It does have alot of roms bur the emulation is iffy. Ctr you can't even see the other racers. The input delay on the controllers is also terrible
I dont mind the aspect ratio, i actually prefer my games to take up the whole screen, the problem we see is the HD tvs and up hold a lot more pixels on screen and of course games crash but theyre usually isolated incidences and of course mistakes can be made when the roms are installed as well as being copied from a defective version of the game copy that it came from.
A nice piece of product overall and I considered buying this for a second.. but since half of my favorite games are on the N64 and this apparently suffers from crashes in that section then it's going to be a rock hard pass on this one for the time being.
It seems really hard to find good N64 emulators
@@bigantho1557 apparently if I want smooth N64 emulation I need to invest in one of those mini PC's and they are way too pricey for my wallet for the time being.
@@jenserikolsen3515 The best I’ve seen the 64 on is this original xbox i bought with over 50,000 games. This cool asian dude was refurbishing them. He even made the fan better on it. The 64 on that plays about 50% of the games. Thats the best ive seen. So many good ones just don’t play. My vita has 64 on it, can’t even play one game on it. If that dude still had his number, I would give it to you because he was selling those bad boys for 250 bucks and it was well worth it. You could pick different skins to put on the system as well. It’s all well done on the systems. You can see the game your on before you start it. Got the cheat codes for them as well on there. So worth it.
@@jenserikolsen3515 Try any android S905X3 box. Mine runs everything except Cruisin USA
I'm looking for something that will run Resident evil 2
at least for people who are not WILLING to set up their own system...they have a ton of options to just buy a ready to go unit. This one seems fine but not for me.
I learned how to setup my own system from scratch works very well and I've been using it since 2019.
Great review on this one
Lucky . Mine didn't even come with Nintendo 64 games
This console has the game asteroid ❓
Not worth it imo. Just received mine today and while its impressive that it manages to run some 3d systems ok, it doesn't provide a good collection of games imo. My version has no sega genesis, sound is missing in a good amount of ps1 games and the filter system they put on 2d retro games takes away from any nostalgia you would want from older games. Id give this a 4/10 from someone who doesn't know the ends and outs of emulation.
The console has the asteroids game❓
Considering an hour of somebodies time is worth $20+ is it REALLY still smarter to go the raspberry pie route?
10000 games no duplicates? I say its worth it! N64, oh well, nothing is perfect so yeah, ignore that…
I don't even know why people need this you can get any leaders for your fire stick unless you want to play some of the higher and consoles aside from that you don't really need it as the Amazon fire stick cuz it's pretty much everything
hell ya bro! another crazy device!!
Firestick does more and only costs $19-$30
YOU IMPRESS ME
I have a question, since the n64 control has more buttons. Does it make it harder to play and how is saving?
Yes you can not Play majority of n64 games. That sucks
These things typically come with a crappy SD cards. Maybe the N64 games will run if you put your own roms and your own sd card in it?
I got the game stick but it won’t let me change the ds orientation
has it held up? still working? curious,
I recently bought one and cannot get it to work. Everything is plugged in correctly, all that, tried it on two TVs. It says nothing found on the HDMI connection. Any ideas?
The SD card is bad or not enough power from the TV try a phone charger if there is no light on the stick then you might have a bad stick
Basically with these devices, if you run this OS and gsmes from a PC hard drive, it will run better.
Can you check Vigilate 8 2nd Offense, I wanna make sure is working good
Wonder if the Dreamcast and psp games run at 60
The only thing i see in my swapmeet is real console sold in crazy prices
Hi guys, I was uploading some games in the micro sd, and I do not know what happened, but the N64 emulator is not appearing in the system. When I turn it on, all the consoles appear except the n64. Any idea what it could be, please? In the sd memory, it appears the n64 folder with the games. Thank you in advance
Well, it looks like Ninten-do what Powkiddy can't as far as this thing is concerned.
😂😂😭👍🏻👍🏻
@@Bootyhunter1971 thanks, lol. 😊
I would like to see the list of N64 games 😂
Mario kart 64 crash because of the screen thing they disable something to get it to run so well
With y6 can we play between 2 human on psp games ?
No the emulator does not have this option
Isn't there a shortcut for 4:3 ratio like L3+R3?
On v2 of the firmware you can change aspect ratios
Great review does it have amiga 500 games and swos sensible world of soccer?
You can add amiga to it but best playing the megadrive version of the game for button management ect you will need to mess around to get the custom system hacked. As it comes its locked and does not have amiga
Any issues saving PS1 games or dreamcast games?
I bought one works great for me. I just wanted something to have fun with. I am not crazy about the controller, can anyone give me a recommendation for replacement, something a bit more solid. Thanks in advance
How hot does the device get, if it gets hot at all?
a more recent comment, "My unit freezes and gets extremely 🔥..." if I get one of these, I'm definitely going to be looking at a cooling option for it, starting with cracking open the white case, and drilling numerous 3/16th inch holes through both sides for air flow,
A shame new TV’s,monitors etc. can’t be made to play old school games the right way.4:3 aspect ratio back in the day was your whole screen no black borders. I personally don’t like how old stuff is displayed on modern tv’s.The concept of out with the old in with the new is pissing me off 😤😡off big time.Why hasn’t anyone made a tv or monitor modern for older content people just don’t care anymore.All these upscalers,wires,devices for nothing just to provide clutter when the simple solution is the tv or monitor in small or big screen displays smh 🤦🏽♂️. I’m a real gamer who loves older games I do like some newer games but most of them just lack fun factor.
Different aspect ratios don't look the same on modern tvs because the tv is a different shape from what tvs used to be. That's what the aspect ratio is. There's nothing that can change that I less they start making 4:3 shaped tvs again.
Is def jam fight for New York really on here
Do u have a vid on how to build your own???
How to add game . How to clone sd card??
Grey controller on the box cheap hope it works
Peace and blessings to everyone. 😅🤣 I'm just laughing because that dongle is garbage. Just being honest. It would make me angry discovering I can't play the full version of any of the classic games due to a crash and then pushing me away from gameplay.
Impressive but doesn't beat the PS Classic when it was on sale for $20!
Are controllers running with batteries? How long do they last?
Does this have amiga on it?
My unit freezes and gets extremely 🔥...
Can you play Super Mario 64 DS with full analog control on this?
Yes it uses the left stick
Include kunfu contra super contra
Just curious if anyone knows what the CPU chipset is on this?
It's the amilogic s905x2
Can you show me the sports games please 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Load the sd card on too another device and see if it's the device or sd is too slow to handle it.
There is a good idea. A better quality sd card might be the trick.
I just download every system on my ps3 just TH-cam it.
Just need alot of memory for the systems.
What's the chipset on this? Amlogic?
Any chance it has the Aliens/AvP arcade games or The Simpsons?
I have the same system , yes it has Aliens, I havn't found The Simpsons though. There are so many games to go through.
02228 The Simpsons (arcade) and 16 other Simpsons games though some are repeated across systems.
Isn't that little dongle a Stadia knockoff?
I hear this stick Good and more important had Zombie revenge
I bought this purely for Zombie Revenge lol
@@davekolan862 lol
I have one it’s really good little device but the only thing is both versions only have 10,000 games which is absolutely ridiculous because you’re paying more money for the bigger SD card and it only has the same amount of games. What the Hecks up with that that’s not cool at all I was expecting more than 10,000 games on the higher end one with the higher SD card and you know I still got the same amount of games on both
You bought both the 64 and the 128 and they are both the same?
Could it have different games? Perhaps games with bigger sizes?
Most likely the bigger card version is so you can add more games on your own. So you dont have to burn your own copy of its OS to your own SD card.
Is it worth it daddy
Yeah, I bought the 128gb with the hope it would have more games, and that doesn't seem to be the case. Was going to ask if anyone had loaded more games onto it but that looks unlikely from the comments.
Does it have Toy Story 2 for PS1?
maybe it needs more memory
it's that emelec?
I just hate the ps controller the Xbox syle is hands down better
HI, I'm looking for one of these that will run Goldeneye N64 well enough to play. will this one do that??? Thank you for your videos I really enjoy them
Just go buy a used 64 unless you have one already and go buy everdrivefor $199 to 299... You will have every game from the United States Europe and Japan on one cartridge and what you will never have to worry about lagging or nothing ever playing again and you'll be playing original hardware.. unless you are really Tech Savvy most people will never be able to get these devices to run right on their computer or the little cheap device they brought just get that ever drive and plug it in to your original console and be thoroughly amazed at all the stuff you can do with it instead of wasting time on that other stuff.. I'm not trying to be a smart-ass or anyting but I promise you'll thank me later.
@@llnemesisll7129 ok, thanks for letting me know
@@kennyjurgens9084 No prob, that company makes them for a lot of different systems mostly cartridge based. KRiZZ is the OG of it tho. I tried to post some other stuff for you to know but apparently TH-cam didn't want me to pass that information along so they just deleted my comment lol... But yeah any cartridge base system the everdrive is where it's at. KRiZZ tho don't use the knockoffs
This runs goldeneye very well

Can I plug that device into my TV or do I need a computer?

It does seem to perform better that the s905x on the gd10 with twice the ram
Where O' where is my Need for Speed?
Does this have gta?
I was so excited and then crash😂
Is Mario or donkey Kong it???
Yes all of them up to the DS
😊
Is this only a one player system? It only had one control?
It comes with two controllers so two can play
It has the best game! Astlevania !😂😂😂😂
Is there any games like Winning eleven 4 soccer game bro ?
Almost looks like a raspberry pi zero
dont bother !!!!! this is absolute trash !! joysticks are the worst .. and also most games are not working or in Chinese !!! i got this and i regret wasting my momey !!c
N64 is bad on all
Love your review videos but this product is garbage, go with a raspberry pi.
i like playing in full screen i dont like black bars on sides

On an unrelated note, where can I get a shotgun

You can never have it all w these things.

2. Throw a bunch of other terms on the box like an AI generated the terms.
3. Profit.

I got this and it constantly overheats. It makes a buzz sound and locks up
You know I’d bet if you crack that sucker open an out a tiny fan on the cpu that you’d get better performance on those demanding games!
What would you recommend as being 1 step up from here in terms of price and performance?
