Russ I must compliment you by saying, I love the way you objectively present your reviews. I know we all naturally have varying degree of bias but I think you seem nail a sweet spot when it comes to aggregating price and performance metrics.
Was gonna wait until the Odin Portal 2 released instead of getting RP5, but ordered the RP5 instead. RP5’s smaller screen, cheaper price point, and ability to emulate and play almost all older systems and even a lot of lightweight switch made me lean towards RP5. I already have a switch so don’t need more power to emulate it.
Good move, I did the same thing. Portal looks great but RP5 is just such great value for what you get. I also have an OLED Steam Deck already so the Portal is a bit redundant for me but the RP5 is way more portable.
That’s kinda how I feel. If I’m ever going to get a larger handheld, I think it would just be worth it to pay for a steamdeck at that point. I was going back and forth between the two debating if I should cancel my RP5 preorder but decided to keep it since I still really like smaller handhelds and the bigger ones are kinda annoying after awhile
I believe he is using only third party games footage and no Nintendo IP so Nintendo can't complain about it. Otherwise I would prefer to keep having Retro Games Corps channel than seeing anything about Nintendo on it... hope Russ be careful about it.
@@GilbertoPaulo1970 I've been seeing comments here and there on his and other channels about showing it and like hyping them up for going against Nintendo. Would be a very stupid move for a youtuber who no offense I like all these guys are absolute nobodies compared to the titan that is nintendo.
To stream HDR games to moonlight, the game has to have HDR enable and that's only possible if you have an HDR monitor connected to your PC. Also most games won't let you use HDR unless you enable it on Windows before you boot the game
I canceled my rp5 preorder when the odin 2 portal went live. I'm still not entirely sure if it was the right choice, but I do want the bigger screen for ps2 games, and realistically I would never take the device out of the house even if it was the rp5.
RP5 is more portable and even somewhat pocketable. OD2P is more of a stay home device. For me that is the biggest difference, and why I picked the Retroid, especially since I already have a Steam Deck OLED at home.
Evil Russ buys out all the handhelds and starts setting up the emulation software, but when asked if he really wants to do it he says no and never touches those handhelds again
I think this is one, I think this is the one that is going to play NFL 2k5 first person mode smoothly. & The size of the handheld means no tingly fingers after 45 minutes to an hour of playing. I think they actually did it, i'm feeling incredibly optimistic here.
That Sea of Stars dillema is why it took me so long to come around to emulation/handhelds. But still, I love my Odin 2 Pro and am even more hyped for the Portal Pro's arrival. I've really come to enjoy the hell out of (generally modded) original hardware supplemented with my Odin. Great coverage, as always. Thanks, Russ!
@@fariztahir5521 The O2P score is 279% of the RP5's, which is a score that is 179% higher. Consider that a score that is double is 100% higher. A score that is triple is 200% higher.
Russ is so far ahead of the curve. Not only getting the Odin 2 Portal preview and review hot off the press within 48 hours, but also delivering in-depth insightful reviews which are peerless.
I think this reinforces my decision to buy a RP5. The RP5 can still play the majority or games this will play and does so in a smaller form factor and much cheaper price. The extra power might be good for certain Switch games but until the landscape of Switch emulation changes I don't think it's worth it to spend the extra. You can also overclock the GPU on the RP5 to get better Switch performance as well.
It's so good to see a big TH-camr speaking honestly and at length about the limitations of Switch emulation. It's easy to get really excited and focus only on the success stories, and it *is* super impressive what the devs were able to do in the short time they had before the lawyers came for them in the night. But also, when you sail in such uncharted waters, sometimes here there be serpents, savvy?
About ZZZ, I don't know abput the android version, but on PC you can change to the controller profile just by pressing start on the controller, no need to change any settings
Love your reviews. The screen just looks gorgeous and the text in games actually readable without squinting. I made the mistake of getting the Odin 2 mini. 5 inch screen is too small for my aging eyes. I love the Mini for the PS Vita style and bright screen but it's too small and not oled quality. I can't wait to get my portal. It will probably be the last android handheld I'll ever need maybe. 🤔😀
The HDR problem with moonlight, most likely is that you're trying to stream from a pc/tablet that has no HDR on its monitor/display. You could creat a virtual monitor for it in case. I do use that HDR function with my Lenovo Y700, so most likely Odin 2 portal must be capable of if the screen does support HDR.
My only gripe about the Odin devices, and I love my Odin 2 and Odin 2 Mini, is that the sticks aren't quite as good as I would like. They're leagues above a Nintendo Joy-Con stick, but it's not quite as accurate as a regular Guilikit HE stick. There is almost no threshold between a slight press and a full press, and so a full press happens about 50% away from the edge of the stick. It's insanely difficult to press lightly on the stick and control it, so games that require this for sneaking or walking are almost impossible. Otherwise, the entire devices is awesome. It makes me wonder if this is the same case for the Retroid Pocket 5/Mini.
Did your desktop and its Monitor have HDR enabled? In a standard Sunshine setup, it's streaming a mirror of your primary display and therefore limited to its capabilities or enabled features. You can, however, set it up to work with a virtual display driver or dummy plug with arbitrary resolutions and features. It can even be made to auto-switch to the client device's resolution. That takes a little bit of setup with scripts to do with standard Sunshine and Moonlight, or you can use the Apollo and Artemis forks that integrate that functionality.
please can u provide a simple guide for people who has retroid 5, ayn odin 2, ayn odin 2 portal to setup winlator. winlator bring values to android handheld as it can bring GOG purchases older windows games. it will ensure purchase of odin 2 portal is worth it image playing fall new vegas, skyrim, half life
Russ, can you ask developers to make a 4 inch OLED thin bezels premium version of the 35xxsp? I love that handheld, and id easily pay 100 more for a premium version. Love your videos.
It looks great just don’t know if I can justify the additional money against my ordered RP5 without just breaking down and buying a steam deck oled. It seems like a lot since this my first handheld and I’m really excited to play GC, PSP, Saturn, and Dreamcast since I never owned those systems. There seems to be a lot of great hidden gems and great exclusives on all these systems that I missed out on.
Bagel and cream cheese, black coffee - my choice of snack and drink for this video. BTW - Are you planning to stick with Indigo? I'm thinking about changing to black. Is the Indigo "pretty" enough to give up on the advantages that come with the black sku? (black bars on the side being less noticible). I have never seen an Indigo/blue handheld in person and it looked striking in pictures, so that's the one I went for.
Thanks for the great video, Russ! I’m still considering whether to get a Portal myself. What I think would help me decide is if I could see how 3DS games perform and look on the OLED with two screens open. Specifically anything demanding like Monster Hunter titles or titles that would use both screens a lot like Dragon Quest VII, DQ8, or Etrian Odyssey games. Thanks a bunch and I’m looking forward to the final review!
I pre-ordered this over buying the RP5 or an SD OLED. Reasons being - the SD OLED is a full $100+ more, and is too fatiguing for me to play for long periods (I'm small and have small hands). The O2P is quite a bit smaller and lighter. Won't be buying the RP5 solely because of the left stick placement. I plan on streaming from my PC and playing lots of PS2 with the O2P and occasionally traveling with it since I sometimes visit my folks one state over. Also possibly worth noting that my only other emulation device is an MM+.
I don't think I'd buy this over a Steam Deck but it's impressive to see how much you can play with Android now, and the 8 gen 2 is now 2 generations old. In a few years there will really no point of having a separate PC, just use your phone with a dock. One thing I'm missing is RPCS3/Xenia, is that not a thing on Android or would it need stornger HW?
That's so weird that Sea of Stars crashed at the end for you cause I was able to beat the whole thing including getting the hidden ending. Your save file might be corrupted
Hi Russ, have pre-ordered this and am excited for it, hoping to find some grips. I'm wondering if running with MMJR2 on this is worthwhile, it is for my RG556, changes some games with 60fps patches from having issues to mostly running quite well.
Hi Russ, exactly, between Odin 2, Odin 2 mini and Odin 2 Portal, what are the substantial differences? I own an Odin 2 Max, aside from the differences in display and aesthetic shape, what does the Portal do better than the classic Odin2? Does it have a better custom version of Android that makes it more compatible than the Odin 2 released last year? Because looking at the RAM, CPU and GPU specifications they all seem identical. Thank you
Quick note on The Getaway. I ran into a very similar looking graphical error when emulating xenosaga 3 on the Odin 2, including the massive slowdown when trying software rendering. The only fix I found was to run vulkan but in native resolution. I think it's an upscale error. Maybe that will help for you!
Wouldn't it be great if the Odin2 Portal and PS Portal had a baby? Winlator Tip: install the game on your PC and just transfer the game folder. Sooo much faster.
Do have the portal max model for the these reviews, winlator looks good but is that with 16 gigs of ram and how will 12 gigs differ i order the pro model and i would like to know if I should upgrade before it's shipped later, thanks for all your work too!
Tablet plus full-sized controller is the king of ergonomics. I use a gooseneck stand to hold my iPad Mini over my bed to do Steam Link game streaming with an 8bitdo SN30 Pro Plus controller. All the comfort and precision I need to play a twitch game like Rocket League.
Did you test the battery life with black frame insertion on? Also what retroarch cores do you use?(mesen is more demanding so bfi doesn't work on that core for me) I think you should also write that alongside retroarch and shader info
is her working with steamlink, psplay and other streaming apps? and is bfi really brighter than without bfi in RA? that's not it works on TV with BFI functions.
In terms of ergonomics, I really don't know why the right thumb stick should place in this location, there are a lot of stress put into the right thumb. I think the design of steam deck is the most ergonomics one.
9:12 Doesn't it require the host's monitor to be an HDR monitor? Unless you are using Apollo as the server, which will create a virtual HDR monitor automatically. It works on Steam Deck OLED.
I used Winlator to play Kane & Lynch 2 on the Odin 2 because its a game where a lot of things happen on the screen at the same time, and it ran without a single hiccup. I wanna try Red Dead 2 but didnt had internal space to do it, and installing it from the SD card gave me 13 hours to install and by the first 15 minutes Winlator would close the container. Could someone try to run that game on the Odin 2 using Winlator? Really wanted to see if the Odin has the power to do it.
All I need is a somewhat "pocketable" device to play up to PS2/Gamecube at the best price that I can take anywhere, so the RP5 wins for me. Although I do like the aesthetics of the Portal, especially in that blue 😍 I prefer playing my gacha games on my Legion Go through Windows and Playnite launcher as it has better controller support for games like Honkai Impact 3rd, Star Rail and Wuthering Waves, so I have no need for a more powerful Android device. Just waiting on my 16-bit colour RP5 pre-order to be delivered, then I'll be happy 👌

I wouldn't even bother risking demonstrating switch emulation at this point
He could talk about it though. I figure that's way more safe than showing any images.
He puts the physical cartridge on the upper right while emulating it. It's a nice little touch.
There's no reason to risk losing his channel over it he's not winning against Nintendo.

I ordered one... price was a thing but the package + screensize seems exactly what i want. I had a steamdeck a year ago but found it too bulky.
All I need is a somewhat "pocketable" device to play up to PS2/Gamecube at the best price that I can take anywhere, so the RP5 wins for me. Although I do like the aesthetics of the Portal, especially in that blue 😍
I prefer playing my gacha games on my Legion Go through Windows and Playnite launcher as it has better controller support for games like Honkai Impact 3rd, Star Rail and Wuthering Waves, so I have no need for a more powerful Android device.
Just waiting on my 16-bit colour RP5 pre-order to be delivered, then I'll be happy 👌
I have an original Odin 1 pro, is this worth the upgrade?
TrimUI Brick review next pls. For now, getting a drink and a snack, thank u
On the cusp of getting something to accompany my cubexx. This or Odin 2......?
Nice to see that everyone struggles with the controls of NES Ninja Gaiden! Why oh why does he get stuck to the walls so much!
whoa is that the snes version of FFVI? I only ever played the GBA version, didn't realize the graphics were so different
i like it and the docking system ! BUT like you said at this price point i might as well get a steam deck or equivalent.
