Need to get a recap of all these mini PCs tested and ranked on cost/value vs. system each will support. Good to have a solid Nintendo TH-camr making emulation videos as well
Every time I see SC2 it just takes me back man using Link in that game was everything. One of the best things Nintendo ever did. Damn it looks amazing holds up perfectly!!
I had a PS2, one friend had a GameCube, another friend with a Xbox. We rented/purchased soul Calibur 2 and played at each other's houses and judged for ourselves
This is the kind of thing I'm looking to use to make a MAME cabinet out of... I think this would run all the arcade titles I'd want to have. And, as a side note, I think I've figured out a way to make a home made video pinball machine for under $300 :) my game room is gonna be next level when I get these projects done lol.
I was looking for something exactly like this. The mini PC I was gonna get was twice as much. But I'm getting it for exactly what you did. I'm budgeting for now. Gonna get a better one in the future. But this will get me going
I know what you mean lol!!!!!!!!!!! I have 3 copies of Mortal Kombat for the Sega Genesis, "CIB", except for 1..... It's missing the manual 😔😔😔..... Also, have 3 copies of NBA JAM for the Sega Genesis, "CIB", except for 1...... It's missing the manual as well 😔😔😔........... Also, have Mortal Kombat 2, and DOOM for the 32X, "CIB"!!!!!!!!! That's a nice chunk of change there 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣!!!!!!!!!! Not to mention all the Atari Jaguar stuff I have!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
None of the TH-camrs ever show wrestling and sports games. ALL HAIL THE KING OF EMULATION! Ever think of doing a short showing how well the wrestling games are emulated?
I can't seem to emulate N64 properly. My experience with Paper Mario was glitchy. You should have shown us Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast. I'm able to hack any 3DS game onto my 3DS but I do have a cartridge for Samus Returns. 12:16 The AVGN wish he had this Godzilla game as a kid. I was disappointed that Link still didn't talk in Soul Calibur 2.
Yes, I would like to see a compilation video of him. Ranking all of these systems. I would also like the ranking and comparison to price. And of course, what would be the system like this? It's the most expensive slash, best literal, best not Bang for buck. The literal best no matter what the price.
I'm thinking about getting one quick question do I need to format hard drive where roms stored to fatal are can games load on a standard format hard drive
Haha Christmas 93 my mom saw me play this and said, oh wow that’s so cool! Haha she was a third world country mom though she would let me rent horror movie vhs at age 8. Good times
Wait. Original Playstation or ACTUAL Playstation One - which was the "portable" version with a tiny-a$$ 5" screen that looked like it was a second disc lid? Because the actual PS One had a bit better graphics & CPU than the original was.
here in Québec i can't afford groceries either. Biden have nothing to do with that! American are so Stu*id nowadays... they can't even name 3 other countries and located them correctly on a world's map
I want to use this to replace a android box I am using. Question, I am able to leave the android box pluged into a power strip that comes one when I turn on my arcade cabenit. Will I have to press the power button on the PC everytime? I dont want to have to do that. I want to pc to come on once the power strip is on. Thanks
So, do the emulators run directly from the hard drive? I'm curious how the hard drive is set up with it's directory and launch system. Could I make my own hard drive like this if I've got the emulators and roms already? How to set it up as a plug and play device. Thank you for making the video and appreciate a response if you can!
The acemagician pro 6 I got has a amd ryzen 7 5800 u and I've played payday 3 on it. Fallout 4 wanted to try starfield but it don't have enough memory on the rom. Gonna upgrade it to 64 GB then try it again. Might work
I’m confused, so the emulator isn’t ran on and stored on mini pc? Is it only processing items from the external drive? I like how it seems to run and I think it’s good but I’m just confused on how much I need to buy in order to get your experience you have on the screen.
There are some tutorials on setting up a portable install on an external USB hard drive. By far the easiest is "Launchbox Portable Install" that ETA Prime explained how to setup.
You only need the two products, both are listed in the video description. The first is the mini PC that powers everything and the second is the external hard drive that contains the emulation OS and game ROMS.
@@glennshoemake4200 Thanks for the info. I think I went further in my decision making process by gathering information about the Valve Steam Deck and its possabilities. Especcially when it comes to retro gaming ... ;-)
Exactly what looking for got all the rooms already so don't need the oremade hd. Should be here Sunday then installing lunchbox and take day playing some Saturn. The system is 139.00 after 20 dollar coupon super cheap
I remember war gods back in the day on the 64 but I prefer clay fighters and mace the dark age and killer instinct gold 😎😎😎💯💯💯 I loved the hockey game that was on the Super Nintendo it was like the funnest and best especially when they would drop the sticks and gloves and fight 😂😂 it was the best lol
So what would be the best budget mini pc to run games up to current... like you would find on the hyperbase 5tb drive? Trying to build up a budget retro/ gaming setup for my in car entertainment system, so, space savings matters. And obviously I'd like to keep it as cheap as possible. Already have a pure sine wave inverter to power things.
@@yosoymichaelmyers Ace makes one with AMD 5700, ACEMAGICIAN AM06PRO, however the 5700 uses older Zen 2 CPU cores while 5800 uses newer Zen 3 CPU cores for better performance. Trigkey makes a good inexpensive 5800h which draws more power than the 5800u and would perform a bit better. TRIGKEY Mini PC Ryzen 7 5800H.
Hey so i got both of these. Anybody know how to get the kinhank to actually boot up on this thing? I already changed it to auto boot into it, but it just black screens
So this is not with just a plug'n'Play kind of thing... there are no games on it.. YES you are right im not into, more then just playing the games, iI looking for the best Retro Gaming all in one Plug'n'play kind of person, and i want my kids to see how it looked when daddy was a young kind. if this is really good, what do i need els ??
Big fan of you rgt85 but you are completely wrong about mortal Kombat when it comes to Sega vs. Super Nintendo. Look at comparison video side-by-side. The super Nintendo was far superior. And you will never see anything like Donkey Kong country or killer instinct on the SEGA. And I preferred Sega back in the day too but let's just keep it real.
Need to get a recap of all these mini PCs tested and ranked on cost/value vs. system each will support. Good to have a solid Nintendo TH-camr making emulation videos as well
Really appreciate RGT checking out a cheaper option for us!
You are the best!!! This is what I was looking for, emulating upto Gamecube on the budget! I love the Dreamcast and the Saturn!
I actually love your mini PC content. It's the only non spam content on the topic on youtube. Thank you!
Every time I see SC2 it just takes me back man using Link in that game was everything. One of the best things Nintendo ever did. Damn it looks amazing holds up perfectly!!

"...undisputed king of emulation..." when you didn't even know what emulation was until this year!
Bought this pc months ago. This is the review I’ve been waiting for
Is it easy to set up? Wanna play on my tv and use controller
@@Godzilladad yes it's pretty easy to setup. Just do a search for emulation for Windows

I like this. Glad you went with cheaper mini pc to test out. Some of us don’t want to spend a bunch just to enjoy older games. This is mint
Dude, I fully hear you on Knights into the dream. We got it packaged with a special controller and it was just an awesome experience.
My note 10 plays cruzin USA.
Cruzin the World-Hawaii jungle bump is a killer track btw.
WCW vs. the World is an often-forgotten classic...best wrestling game on the PS1.
My cheap a$$ is getting this mini retro gaming pc. ❤
N95 systems can definitely be has much cheaper today. Even N100 is only $145 shipped off Amazon.
Might have to scoop one up! Thanks RGT! 😁
9:15 Well Wayne Gretzky is in NHL Open Ice. On the Rangers.
So you're a muska fan? Then name every Chad!
The 3d hockey game is so fun. Had a birthday party where friends from school came over and played it. Great memory
Spend the extra $100 and get the AMD variant.
Why
um,you might want to return it cuz i heard that the ace magican mini pcs come with malware on them
@@yosoymichaelmyers will be significantly more powerful
@@azurekite3870 unless they managed to throw it into the UEFI, just format and reinstall

The Avermedia is the way to go for capture cards. I dunno why people still use that Elshito
I love my Beelink SER5 MAX
I could put this in my ultimate legends arcade

it would probably run the Zelda wii u games and that's all that matters.

Ever think of doing a short showing how well the wrestling games are emulated?
great video!! does this run Killer Instinct? the arcade version, not the console ports :)
NBA Steeet vol.2 on ps2 That's all I want and that's all I need
😲 Everybody's favorite Emulation TH-camr is back at it again 🎉
thats a weird way to spell nintendo
The king would The Wicked Gamer.
I would like to see if you have the time , how you capture video for these games , I guess your process
Idk why these things can’t ship to my location. Couldn’t get the other ace magician pc sent to my area either
It's strange that alot of reviews on amazon say its bad for gaming
abd have you tested it if's true or not?

were you using the Kinhank 2tb Botecera HDD for this?
ETA crawled, so RGT could walk
😂😂 same goes for Mr Sujano
I'm thinking about getting one quick question do I need to format hard drive where roms stored to fatal are can games load on a standard format hard drive
I would be grounded for an entire month if caught playing MK1 at a friends house or in the arcade. Blood or not!
LOL!😂
Is Citra the 3DS emulator? Have you tried a link between worlds?
A good Wii game to test is Tasunoko vs Capcom, with all the effects and it needing to be a stable 60.
Great idea. I'm downloading it now to test it out. 😊
My mother took away Heretic when I was younger. I also have that copy.
Haha Christmas 93 my mom saw me play this and said, oh wow that’s so cool! Haha she was a third world country mom though she would let me rent horror movie vhs at age 8. Good times
Great!👍
15:53 for Wii U, you got 50fps. Did you happen to be using a PAL version
Great video, just got curious about something like this and it looks like your video may just be all I need.
Wait. Original Playstation or ACTUAL Playstation One - which was the "portable" version with a tiny-a$$ 5" screen that looked like it was a second disc lid? Because the actual PS One had a bit better graphics & CPU than the original was.
I’m debating selling my retro games and just getting into emulation. I can’t afford groceries. F biden
Do it man, it just makes sense at this point. FJB 🇺🇸
No man food goes first!🤔
here in Québec i can't afford groceries either. Biden have nothing to do with that! American are so Stu*id nowadays... they can't even name 3 other countries and located them correctly on a world's map

This is really a cool mini pc I'd buy this and 3d print a cool case that would hold extra storage. But yeah this thing looks great.
NO SWITCH TALK?!?
pfft, I'm out :)
Glad to see you made it back from the beach in one piece.
What's up with the recent videos all having audio crackling problems?
Emulation is the way to go
What is the name of the Saturn emulator used? It looked impressive given how notoriously difficult that system is to emulate. Great video!
it will have been Beetle....
The acemagician pro 6 I got has a amd ryzen 7 5800 u and I've played payday 3 on it. Fallout 4 wanted to try starfield but it don't have enough memory on the rom. Gonna upgrade it to 64 GB then try it again. Might work
Nice Mini pc
Dude, 64 Hockey game was so fun!
Awesone video does this have nes games as well as hack games as well?
Would be good if you have a higher spec one to follow on from until we have all emulation covered
blackview had a better offer 16 gigs of ram 512 gb of nvme and same procesor for 148 total the is a really good deal if you ask me i got it inmetially
I’m confused, so the emulator isn’t ran on and stored on mini pc? Is it only processing items from the external drive? I like how it seems to run and I think it’s good but I’m just confused on how much I need to buy in order to get your experience you have on the screen.

Not bad at all runs everything smoothly up to generation 7/8 good for 200 and there’s a 50 off coupon for it so for 150 not a bad PC
cruisn usa its made by ultra 64, thats why its hard to emulated
Are the Games include ( are the Games in this Box ) ???????
Hi RGT, do you have any experience yet with a Raspberry Pi 4 (8GB)? In comparison to that little pc there? I'd like to know. Thanks :-) ...
PI 4 is good up to Dreamcast but I think it will struggle on N64 and higher.
@@glennshoemake4200 Thanks for the info. I think I went further in my decision making process by gathering information about the Valve Steam Deck and its possabilities. Especcially when it comes to retro gaming ... ;-)
@@maverickAMH I've had the Steam Deck since it first launched and it's really great for emulation. Emudeck makes it super easy to get started.
Does the kinhank support mac os if not ill buy an ace magician
Exactly what looking for got all the rooms already so don't need the oremade hd. Should be here Sunday then installing lunchbox and take day playing some Saturn. The system is 139.00 after 20 dollar coupon super cheap
Dear Mom,
I own every Mortal Kombat game now that I am an adult, so suck it.
I love you.
Best regards,
It's £400 in uk wish I could get this for 200
Sorry, RGT 85, but you are not the undisputed king of emulation. That would be ETA Prime.
And MPL.
Neither of them are, lol. But I appreciate a simple look at a cheap option. 🍻
RGT is the people's champion
Thank you for the capture recommendation! Ive been looking for a stand alone for awhile now. Looks good.
I wonder how supermodel and teknoparrot runs on this, may be a cheap upgrade in my cade cabinet from my rpi4b🤔
Can you install any of your own roms onto it?
Kabuki Jo!! Loved me some War Gods! Haha! 🤣🍻
So you have to buy both the mini pc and the external drive with the games on it?
Any idea how I could get one of these to output analog video? I have a pvm I want to hook one of these up to via rgb or composite
So does this mean you prefer the Kinhank drive over the Kriscoolmod one?!?
Bet it would not run Star Wars Rogue Squadron II now that would be a test.
you know you can be copyright stright
I want to know if I can do video pinball!!
Is that a Batocera drive? You need to boot into it then and can't just run it in Windows, correct?
I can barely play gamecube on my 160 mini pc from beelink
I remember war gods back in the day on the 64 but I prefer clay fighters and mace the dark age and killer instinct gold 😎😎😎💯💯💯 I loved the hockey game that was on the Super Nintendo it was like the funnest and best especially when they would drop the sticks and gloves and fight 😂😂 it was the best lol
