@@Shinobi33 oh yeah, The build I used I simply downloaded it to an external harddrive and just plug it in and run it on any pc I want. But you can also just download it straight to the PCs storage. The build is called CoinOPS Legends Bitwars
Awesome. Thank you for another awesome and practicle review. This a great option for basic solid retro gaming. Im sure if u add another ram stick you can get good PS2 performance. I am impressed❤
@pooksthepossum lol I just opened the box and it's actually got a little heft to it, so to answer your question, yeah it is heavy for its size. Definitely solid built.
@@AdversaryOneso you don't need a regular PC to run it? You can download and run everything from it? Does it bring games or do you download them from sites?
Finally something that does Saturn, and Gamecube well, phew😅 @Madlittlepixel I know you been trying to bring us the goods for quite a while! THANKS my man...💪🏿
Would be interested in a follow up video given the price point, to know if F-Zero GX runs well and how PS2 runs, especially GoW 2. Both games tend to be great benchmarks since they push the emulators.
Very interesting, good price for what can be played, kinda wish this was available over a year ago cause as you say the pi4b is limited in what it can run well
Amazon has a renewed HP EliteDesk 800 G3 mini desktop Quad-core i5 with 16gb DDR4 and 256 SSD for only 118$ they also have a better spec model for 166$
I'd go one step farther and recommend a used home or office PC. I bought an HP (i5-4790) for $35 at a thrift, threw in some spare RAM, added a small SSD, and blammo, I've got a game machine for about fifty bucks. I imagine there's not much difference in performance between a 4th gen Intel Core and whatever this newer but cheaper system is using.
For got to add my only Rael issue with those premade bulits has to do with The Compatibility Support Module "CSM' on The Computer's Motherboard. CSM turns off some of the boot options so and bad guy can't boot form CD-R it hack your system as you are away for the system.
I still don't understand how they work for retro gaming? You download Window the builds and roms directly from it? Does it come setup up with emulators and games?
For this, as a cheaper. You don't need to buy Android TV box for emulation, just Windows Mini PC. But i think it's useful for a people like me who know Windows for decades.
great video. batocera will be choppy it was with me. all u need to do is put in another memory stick so its in dual channel and batocera will run same as coinops runs
Deleted original comment. Got the answers I needed from the Amazon listing. Great price for what you get. Just gotta do the leg work yourself as far as adding emulators and roms.
I noticed at this price point they have a model with and N5095 and one with a N5105 processor. Which model would be better for the emulation you mentioned?
I got a beelink N95 which I think is better that on sale 8gb RAM 256 SSD was $140 plus tax. For gaming the N100 is considered better for gaming. Seen as low as $160-180? See reviews!
Hey! Love your channel, very useful. I bought this mini after watching your video. This is my first foray into coinops, I installed the collections build. The front end works great on all accounts, but all of the games (regardless of system or emulator) are super laggy and jittery. I was able to get MAME to work great by switching the video setting to OpenGL, but thats the only platform that is working for me. Is there some global setting I am missing? Do I need to tweak each emulator or was this plug and play for you? Playing on a 4k monitor set to 1080. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Update - I have gotten most systems working on this mini with the coinops build, but n64 still seems to be struggling on all but the lowest quality settings, particularly it can only handle 1x upscale in the core settings. Would love to hear more about your settings for this, I know you said you didn't tweak the emulator settings from coinops default but when i tried that it was a disaster
I picked one up recently and it plays most things very well. That being said, I cannot get 3DS, PSP, and up to go beyond like 15 fps. I am using standalones like Citra and PPSSPP, but they still do not work well. Also, I am using emmulationstation as the frontend - any recommendations to help these higher-end games run better? My man here, didn't seem to have a problem running these games, so I know there is a solution to this. Any additional info would greatly be appreciated, thanks!
if i end up getting this PC im not even gonna throw a launcher on there, im just gonna run the standalone emulators the same way i do on my current laptop lol.
Thanks for your review. Very informative as ever. Just bought one for my dad using the affiliate link. He wants to start a podcast and I think this system will be good for that.
I know this isn't a tech support channel but I'm having trouble booting up botocera on this thing. After making the external drive priority, saving and resetting, it shows the splash screen for a second and goes to black indefinitely. I tried on two different drives with identical builds and another PC which works fine.
I had the same issue, changing priority and it would go black... I went back in and disabled secure boot and it worked. I don't remember exactly what I chose in the BIOS, Id have to go back and double check but it took more than just making the external drive priority.
@Madlittlepixel Thanks for the reply. Sadly no luck yet. Main menu doesn't allow much to manipulate besides language, time and date. Security / secure boot = disabled. Boot / UEFI Hard Disk Drive BBS Priorities / Boot Option #1 = Kinhank HDD external Save & Exit / Boot Override = Kinhank HDD External Everything else is pretty much default. Thanks again for trying to help.
My only issue with these are I find MAC based emulation better then Windows based emulation and to me VR is the only reason to go with Windows since VR for the MAC is just not reday for primetime yet. In fact The Oculus Rift not working with my MAC since the bootcamp drivers didn't allow for EGPUs was the only reason I got an Windows PC.

Any word on PS2 performance?
@@imacanadianfox2166 im going to check some more PS2 games and make a separate video.
So you don't need to format it on a regular PC?. You can download the builds and roms directly from it?

Your price comparison with a Pi 4 build is spot on.

Was it heavy?

@@AdversaryOneso you don't need a regular PC to run it? You can download and run everything from it? Does it bring games or do you download them from sites?
@Shinobi33 It's supposed to run everything on its own. It is a PC. You have to install your own games.
@@AdversaryOne ok got it

Looks amazing for the pricepoint 🎉 cool share Ron 👋

Not such a great deal for us

I think Shadow of Colossus is a game to benchmark for PCSX2, my 3060 even struggles with it at 1440p.

thank you for answering my comment from the pi 4 video lol
Now this is wat I call a mini P.C baby
I wonder if they just have come about, this brand as Tom from Moore~s Law Is Dead, was doing a sponsor for their Intel and AMD Mini PCs.
This is pretty cool. I will have to pick it up.
Glad to see it~s got 8 gb. instead of 4 though. Don~t disagree with you about Dual Channel though.

I imagine there's not much difference in performance between a 4th gen Intel Core and whatever this newer but cheaper system is using.
Size, more heat, noise and more power draw would be the difference but performance would be on par.

Low end miniPC prices are coming down finally, even mid/higher range models like the SER5 Pro & SER6 Pro are dropping in prices as well.

Keep and eye on these for Prime Day
mlp, wondering if you think it's worth it to step up to the mini IT8 and if you had a chance to play with other of their other systems?
I noticed at this price point they have a model with and N5095 and one with a N5105 processor. Which model would be better for the emulation you mentioned?
What's the coinops build you use mate?
What controller would you recommend for this machine , looking to play nes,snes all the way to GameCube is fine for me.
Is it better to get this one, or rather Pi 5? I can wait a couple of months
I got a beelink N95 which I think is better that on sale 8gb RAM 256 SSD was $140 plus tax.
For gaming the N100 is considered better for gaming. Seen as low as $160-180?

How bout PS2 games? Did it run well?
Yeah, I'm just wondering the same
Isn't it better to get a mini-PC with Intel Core i5 1240P CPU?

Yes 100%. You will have better compatibility and performance than one of those cheap android boxes.

When go to buy directly ..offers 2 options . A special .. what's the that ?
When I click the Amazon link it's only on sale for 17% AND it's £599 - RIP OFF BRITAIN
That the next model up for us its £189
Should it be able to handle MAME?
Hey MLP, Can you test teknoparrot on it ?
No fan? That could be a problem don’t you think?
Im just curious if I can stick this in an Arcade1up.
Ok. I'm digitally slow. Are there tutorials for getting thr Software on here??
Can it play killer instinct arcade?
Yes to both ki1 and ki2.
Wherre cani find the magnusrc 64gb build ??
Sadly only 1TB SSD possible? Why not a 2TB, because no place for a 2.5 hdd (ssd). So external hdd is needed.
Are the games pre loaded?
I see that the normal price is 200 USD. Is it still worth it then?
Can this power FightCade?
What game was being playing at 7:54?
I think its that Disidia. Final Fantasy fighting game.
Can you just plug it into your TV like a console and play or no
sure, thats how i been using it testing stuff lately, on a 4k monitor.
Will this work on a 65 inch
Will it emulati game cube or switch
GOKU?!
A buck 30?! Yoooo
I got one too great little computer I may add more ram give it a boost

One word, Batocera.
It's $149 now
These mini pc's are why I don't see the point of the Mister.
@@kumarp3074 Ive never noticed lag either. Emulating a 8, 16, 24 or 32 bit system on a modern Intel or AMD processor is a breeze.

Of course not, Greg.
Not terrible for the price but my free phone is more powerful.
Can u play Roblox?
First
Is this a plug and play to a TV???? With hdmi ??
