Been rolling on a 35XX for over a month. Picked it up to play with when recovering from surgery. It’s awesome, no regrets. Paid $67.99 delivered.
Does the 35xx have mame and dreamcast and ps1 games on it and do they run without lagging? Does it have marvel vs capcom and xmen vs street fighter ??
Did you flash updated firmware or did the default work just fine for you?
@@matttran7161 Garlic OS all the way. Really easy.
how long did shipping take? site didn’t tell me
got mine on release been playing almost every day garlic OS also a godsend
You gotta love the names these companies give their portable emulators.
"Ah yes, can't go out the house without my RG35XX"
lmao
🗿
Just don't get the xx, but RG35 stands for retro game 3.5 screen, their name scheme it's ok, powkiddy that messes things up
An unfortunate consequence of the constant cycle of upgrades. They've made 21 different handhelds. I wonder how much a unifying rebrand for newer models together with their ease of use would boost sales. Retroid Pocket has got the easy branding, but the setup isn't easy at all.
RG is typical Anbernic prefix.
35 I think has something to do with 3.5" display.
XX might mean something else. I usually see 'V' devices with a vertical screen. 'M' or 'P' seems to be horizontal.
Its so nice seeing content creators adding subtitles to their videos. You do some great reviews, and having non-auto-generated subtitles is the cherry on top
I agree with you completely, it's a huge plus.
Same. My hearing is garbage, and it’s not really something that can be solved by just turning the volume up. Love to see creators taking the time or money to make their videos accessible.
@@derp195 It's not that hard if you do scripted videos.
@@0525ohhwell it is incredibly time consuming to individually place each line of dialogue in time with the video. you cant just paste a script in willy nilly
edit: oopsies, apparently u can ahahahahaha
@@theseoldhomes actually, you can.
9:37 also enable "integer scale". this scales the original resolution by an integer of itself, meaning 320x240 becomes 640x480. this allows every pixel to be perfectly square and not be distorted or uneven
It kinda breaks the look of gba games in my experience, especially if I have keep aspect ratio on as well
The hdmi port is awesome, we can hook up two controller via usb-c hub and play multiplayer games with two people on the big screen like the old times, or with just one controller for the second player and use the RG35xx itself as a first controller. This can become a retro console when needed, which is why I preferred this over the Miyoo Mini or Miyoo Mini+.
wait so you’re saying that this can broadcast to tv orrrrr its just possible to play multiplayer games on it
@@mistiqueskateshe’s saying it can be connected through the hdmi port to a tv and you can also connect extra controllers via the usb c port
@@DC5JOSH thanks as a 21yo im more technically challenged than my grandpa so i was v confused
What controllers do you use that can be used simultaneously?
Do you use a usb-c splitter to have 2 controllers connected ?
I haven't ever had a device dedicated to emulation, but the RG35XX looks like it's perfect for a first-timer like me. I might just put this on my wishlist and get one once I can!
This is the first time I’ve legitimately wanted to get into a handheld emulator. I’ve only dabbled with gba and ds emulation on my laptop but really wanna try this!
I loved my Miyoo Mini but my hands are too big for it to be comfortable to play for long periods of time. I was having issues playing for more than 5-10 minutes without my hands hurting. So I ordered the RG35XX a couple weeks ago. It being bigger is a huge pro for me.
I think this thing is a great option for people to get into retro gaming. Even some more expensive ones aren't even available when you order (looking at you, Analogue Pocket).
I've the same complaint though definitely play it for hours. With long fingers I avoid games spamming bumpers. It's a little awkward sometimes but manageable.
But there's a Miyoo mini plus that's releasing right now that has a 3.5 inch screen lol. I don't see anyone in this comment section talking about it. I guess nobody followed Miyoo news happening in the background
@@Faine212 The RG35XX is bigger and looks nicer IMO.
Where did you buy it from?
I purchased a RG35XX about a month ago. I plan on buying some replacement shoulder buttons and a bigger battery, but with GarlicOS I feel like there really isn't much need for a lot of changes. I could live with the shoulder buttons, and the battery life is only about 4.5 hours with lower screen brightnesses, but it's still a solid little handheld. Plus, the purple case almost matches my OG Game Boy Color. Totally worth the purchase if you don't already have a handheld that will play up to PS1.
Any idea where we can purchase a larger battery for the RG35XX?
I really love these retro hardware handheld/hardware videos. They're so comfy for some reason.
same
The original GBA did have a sleep mode but it had to be enabled in each game. It was a godsend for the Boktai games when you would lose sun in the middle of a boss fight.
Yes! I was just thinking this. Half the reason I got this was to replay those games. Rarely see someone who even knows about them.
WHAT
Explain yourself
Golden sun has it too
@@spooderous how do you go about emulating the boktai games without a sensor? I was thinking about playing them after playing through the Megaman Battle Network series again but thought it couldn't really be done without the original hardware.
I got my RG35XX a week ago and I've already put over 60 hours in it. It also fits perfectly in my hands compared to my Miyoo that was just too small.
does it show how many hours you play or did you just estimate it?
Fuck, so you're playing almost 10h a day on it? How? Do you have 40h a day?
@@ilypo if the garlicOS is similar to the onionOS, it can show how many hours you played in a game, and also all games collectively
It's probably a reference to how lots of movies and TV shows and video games will say "in the year 20XX the world as we know it is gone..."
@@InVaZiOnAzN that's really sick
Gosh darn-it bob. You sold me on the steam deck. Now I even went out and grabbed this little guy too. I’ve never really touched these portable emulators but I finally pulled the trigger. Im glad the system can be upgraded to include a sleep function, definitely a must for me. Can’t wait to bring it around with me( the steam deck is sort of a monster to carry around).
One thing that the RG35XX has over the Miyoo Mini is a Real Time Clock. This affects Pokemon games from gen 2. The Miyoo Mini gets around this by moving the clock forward every time you turn on the handheld, but you can't change the amount of hours it'll jump ahead. Miyoo Mini Plus also won't have RTC, but it'll have wifi so you can sync the time that way. Might be bothersome if you're away from an Internet connection though
Question for you . Can pokemon games save in game after defeating the elite 4 and completing the game ? I'm seeing mixed answers .
@@CrimsonRevenant89as soon as you finish the game after beating elite four it saves automatically and as soon as it saves you can wait for a reboot or turn off/on and keep playing from outside E4
Another thing to note is to pray that once your Miyoo Mini ships, that it actually gets to you. A friend and I have ordered directly from their store page on separate occasions (recommended by another friend who got his on one of their drops as well) and both of ours either got lost in shipping or landed at a completely different location out of our state and they were incredibly difficult to deal with. I’m still waiting on a refund and it’s been months… So when I saw the 35XX drop, I bought it instantly on their preorder page and got it in a few weeks. I’m absolutely obsessed with it. My RP 2+ is collecting dust as we speak because the portability and form factor of the 35XX is exactly what I needed.
I've been holding off on buying an RG35xx for a couple of weeks now, telling myself that I don't really need it. But when this video came out, I ordered one right away. Man your opinion & influence are really strong, kudos.
I bought one today too can't wait to get it, because I wanted to buy the miyoo mini v2 but i can't buy it and bought this instead and i like the rg35xx more because it it bigger
I did the same, got this on my recommendation and saw this video and bought it right away. I've always wanted a handheld and for the price, this will be worth it.
go there and buy the 2 minute lunch thing too :P haha
how's it holding up 1 year later? The amazon reviews have a lot of reports of it crapping out after a few weeks or other issues.
I never thought I'd say this, but I'd definitely watch a sitcom where it's just straight a compilation of all your sponsorship segments, man. Great job in making them so entertaining, they're just as good as the rest of all the videos.
People keep saying these are $50 but they are $55 with like $15 shipping and by that point you may as well buy the one off Amazon with free 1-2 day shipping for $79.
Still worth it and that's what I did. Really enjoying mine. Although I do have an eBay Miyoo mini coming in today...
So got my Mini, flashed a new update of Onion OS on an SD card, and copied my files from my RG 35XX slot 2 card. You really can just swap the card back-and-forth and it loads the spot you were automatically. It's seamless. Initial impressions it's not as comfortable to play on the mini. I actually almost feel like I'm getting a blister on my thumb now lol which is funny considering how much I've been playing the RG.
Bought the ambernic RG35xx right before the end of the year and it is so simple to pick up and play with no work from you, and everything I’ve tried has played close enough to the original that I would need them side by side to notice a difference.
The one thing I'd like to know that I think you didn't mention in the vid is what the battery life is like. I'm sure there's a lot of difference between running say a gba game vs a ps1 game, but it'd be nice to get an estimate. Otherwise, as someone that's been trying to get a miyoo mini to no success, I'm glad an alternative with a similar form factor has shown up.
I just checked the website and it appears it has a Li-polymer battery of 2100 mAh, lasting 5 hours. I guess take it with a pinch of salt as I can't imagine it will run for 5 hours every session.
thanks :)
@@ComicalPlayer honestly how likely is someone gonna play for 5 hours straight tho. I myself mainly play in small sessions and the battery has lasted me for multiple days. Plus it only takes like an hour to charge if u were playing for multiple hours.
@@NovaIsTheBot I couldn't agree with you more. I can't see myself playing for nearly that long, especially if it's a Gameboy game 🤷
I've had the RG35XX for about a month now and the battery life is just ok. For PS1 games it lasts about 2-3 hours. 3+ hours with easier to run games
@Scoony the one thing I don't fully understand is the saving process. So if i wanted to switch games there's no way to save progress?
I got my RG35XX a week ago. Immediately installed Garlic OS 1.0.5 and it's been amazing ever since. I freakin' love this thing! Haven't touched my PC or PS5 since I got it lol. It feels so good to play all of these classic titles that I missed out on as a kid on the go.
I ordered mine through keepretro. I went with them because they inspect the product before it gets to you and they handle returns/refunds if necessary. In total I paid $64.99 + $15.78 for expedited shipping which I'm not entirely sure if that was really necessary. I don't know how much of a difference expedited shipping makes over standard but I ordered mine on January 21st and received delivery February 8th.
Is it easy to install Garlic OS? I only have a Mac.
@@mikepotapa5773 it's very easy to install. The only issue you would possibly have on Mac is access to the proper applications to do the entire installation process. I have a PC so I don't know if there are any solutions for Mac.
I'd recommend checking out Retro Game Corps TH-cam channel. He has a full video and written guide on how to install Garlic OS for the RG35XX. Maybe there's a way to get this all to work on Mac.
@@REVOLVERE thanks, I’ll take a look. My wife has a PC so I can always use that if needed.
Sleep mode is such a game changer holy crap. I didn't notice it much on my ds, because those games were made with being portable in mind so lots had easy ways to save your progress, but on the steam Deck now? Holy crap being a le to just press a button, and then come back exactly where you left it off is the apex of convenience
PSA: the miyoo mini with onion os has a setting where it saves the state when it turns off, and loads the state when you turn it on. It takes a little longer than an actual sleep mode, but you don’t have to worry about battery drain while off.
@@derp195 That's pretty nifty
@@Fernando-ek8jp Definitely. It's basically the reason it's my go-to handheld, because I don't know anything else that does this. Honestly if I knew a way to do it with the rg280m, I'd use it a lot more that the mini.
Sounds silly, but as an adult who gets most of their play time in very short bursts, the fact that it's just one button to start and stop is significant.
Side note, the steam deck's sleep function basically turned me back into a PC gamer. Game changer is right.
Just bought RG35XX.
A little jewel this console.
I'm replaying all the titles from my childhood.
Only downside I've seen so far on ps1 titles is a slight audio delay and sometimes some writing in the subtitles is like missing pieces of letters.
After watching bob for years and not buying a single one of these, I finally caved and just bought this emulator even though I already have a steamdeck.... I like the aesthetic and idea of every pokemon in my pocket
Agreed ! Dame
I always appreciate your reviews, Bob, because you do a great job at looking at these devices from the perspective of someone with little experience with emulation devices and who doesn’t want to navigate through Reddit threads with conflicting advice to figure out how to do simple things that other reviewers can do in their sleep and take for granted.
I have been trying to purchase the miyoo mini on express from other sellers since you recommended it. And had so much frustration never receiving my products. This is exactly what I was looking for thank you so much for the video. I actually prefer the larger size since I have larger hands. This would be my first emulator device I'm ever purchasing. I have lots of experience with technology overall But I wanted something that wouldn't take too much work to get up and playing. I Appreciate all your hard work on your videos. I hope you have a wonderful day.
I have to say of all my portable handhelds (now it could also be the games I play), I wind up now using my 35xx more than even my rp3+ just for its connivence, comfy size and reasonable portability. It goes with me every day when others are a 'maybe' choice and I have enjoyed the heck out of it. A few things I could wish were better, battery life being one as If It could just get 1-2 more hours on average it would feel basically perfect, the back buttons since I don't need them for games much, mainly function/menu commands they aren't that key, but I wish it also had a more responsible and tactile volume control. If this had a little bit better battery, and the volume wheel of the mini, I think it would be a 10/10
again though, 60$ish, kind of hard to nitpick that much.
I bought my RG35XX almost a month ago because I was not going to fuck around with bots and scalpers clawing at miyoo minis like it's a fucking gold rush. I kinda felt like I was making a compromise, until I saw all the support from Black Seraph, theme makers, and the general consensus shifting in the favor of Anbernic. I am very pleased at how well things turned out for this console.
I did the exact same thing for the very same reasons, mate, knew I wasn't the only one. I was also really impressed with all the work from Black Seraph.
This is the video I needed right now. I'm always looking at every review for all the players that get released but I never decide to pull the trigger on one. Just starting the video right now, but I'm hoping this will help me pick one and go get it.
I recommend buying it. I got one for my daughter and it’s great. The build quality is solid.
Tis a fine unit
I got an RG35XX a few weeks ago. I really like it. I wanted a Miyoo but it was never in stock and resellers were charging double for it. No way I'm paying a lot of money for something I won't use regularly
I wanted the Miyoo mini...I tried to get it for months. Then I got the RG35XX and I realized that this is actually what I wanted/needed - I have a pocketgo collecting dust, it's a novelty device, I don't have a miyoo but I assume it's the same.. just a novelty. I've already spent more time on the RG35XX than any of my other retro / mod devices - it's comfy, does its job (even on stock), fits in a shirt pocket - I might order a 2nd unit "just in case"
The TH-cam short you posted convinced me to buy one. I’ve messed with emulators and roms on and off throughout the last couple of years, but they were on android phones. I’ve never had a dedicated device like this before, so I’m very much looking forward to trying it out. Thanks for the suggestion!
Been wanting to get an emulator for a while. Pulled the trigger on the Anbernic because of this video. I ordered the Gameboy coloring and can't wait for it to get here!
Been on the fence about getting a handheld emulator for awhile, but Bob has finally sold me on one.
Just placed my order on the Atomic Purple RG35XX👌🏻
Sounds like a solid device, can't wait for Anbernic to make a seccessor in 6 months that gives all current buyers FOMO remorse.
Well the thing is, Abernic has already made more capable products in the past. Such as the RG353V or even a mini device such as the RG280V. Buying a RG35XX now wouldn't matter if something else comes out later because better stuff already exists.
It's only $50
I've heard they are already making a v2 of the RG35XX.
@@brz757 Really? Might be to compete against the Miyoo Mini+
I think one of the best combinations (2022) you can have is the iPhone, and the Retroid Pocket 3+. You get access to iOS Apps and Android Apps, all while being easy to take anywhere as you put them into two pockets. Plus the emulation experience is very very good.
My previous combo recommendations:
- 2022 iPhone 13 Max and Retroid Pocket 3+
- 2019 Samsung S10+QSD and Razer JungleCat
- 2017 Samsung S8+QSD, and PS Vita Slim jailbroken
- 2015 iPhone 6S Plus, and GPD XD
- 2014 Samsung Note 4+E, and new3DS Jailbroken
- 2011 Samsung Note 1, and PSP-3000 hacked
- 2007 iPhone 3G, and DS Lite (flash cart)
- 2004 Nokia N90, and GBA (flash cart)
I have been wanting something like this for a few years now. I don’t have a pc so having games built in is amazing
Been looking at this 35XX for the past week. Looks like a great thing to buy for your kid/younger sibling. Gonna order one for my little brother that shows more and more desire to play games, but still can't really handle big controllers and some modern games.
its for my son! i swear
@@theStepFamm my son's should be arriving tomorrow. Cant wait to open and try the games so i can trim down the library for him so he can play the quality stuff when i find a wife and she gets pregnant and he will be born eventually
You're making me feel special for how easy it was to get my Miyoo mini. I just went to Aliexpress back when these were starting to get really big and picked a v2 for like 56 bucks, 3 weeks later it arrived.
I've had the RG35XX for a month now and have no issues with it. I also kept the same software and it works fine for me. All I wanted was something small enough to put in my backpack or glovebox without taking a lot of space.
Did you get the 65g or the +128g ? Thanks
@@Luis-mu5yj it just game with the 64gb card which is good enough.
@@Luis-mu5yj i think 64gb should be big enough, if you are loading your own roms, it can do most nes, snes, gb, gba, genesis, gamegear, and the like with also like 20 games for ps1, and what i do is just swap out the ps1 games when i finish them and keep some on there like racing games for the occasion wanting to play a racing game.
Where can one buy it? Bob unfortunately didn't put a link in the description.
@@estebangardila Amazon. 1-2 day free shipping.
Just got mine for $50 flat during the Amazon Prime day sale! 😊 So happy with it! Thanks for the reco!
Yeah I understand that miyoo isn’t the largest company but it’s outrageous how small the drops are compared to Anbernic’s constant across the board availability for all their consoles. It gets to a certain point where I think miyoo is actively trying to cultivate exclusivity because it’s instant cash and a less risky investment. I just gave up on getting one after my first try and bought some bigger systems that I’m happy with. Would love to see some of the other companies take their own swing at the ultra portable market to perhaps take miyoo down a peg. A retroid mini sounds either like fun or a nightmare
According to them, its because they couldnt get the screen. Which is why Miyoo is making a bigger version. But then its basically the same as this device.
Dude I just got one! It’s amazing! I’m playing around on the stock Firmware….but 2 days in and as I’m commenting I’m working on putting Garlic OS on it. I will be in love! This is the game boy of my childhood dreams!
This might be a dumb question, but does it play Tetris?
@@brentoncoates6513 What version? Just joking, it plays really good, I have been playing the nes and gb version almost daily with no issue, it's really good for it.
Plays like a dream man!
Personally I love my miyoo mini but the scarcity of it makes it an easy target for price gouging, especially since the screen is so sensitive that it breaks easily. I already dropped some more bones for mods like better triggers and a case that turns into a grip and love it, still if I busted it I'll get the RG35xx as a replacement. For me personally its a matter of OS and the Garlic/Onion OS is where it's at, easy to install and personalize to my taste. Plus features that takes advantage of the portability. I need the sleep mode as I use my pocket consoles for stray game sessions during dry spells of activity. Being able to boot up where you left off and sleep the console when you gotta do something at the press of a button is essential for the stop and go in my day to day life. I got everything I need for now thanks to Onion and the pocketability of the miyoo my next emu console purchase will be if something is within the same pocket size but comes with dual analog so I can play the few ps games that need it like Dark Stone or if my Miyoo nose dives on to the floor.
I'd like to thank you for mentioning that the Garlic OS has the same features as Onion. All I've seen is people showing the install and the tile UI I haven't seen anyone make a comparison to the features.
Tried getting a miyoo mini for months and then the 35XX came out so I jumped. No regrets at all. Love the thing
These handhelds look awesome due to being actually pocketable lol. I usually don't go beneath psp and dreamcast in terms of emulation power, but this pocketability's got me considerin rn!
"if you've always wanted a miyoo mini but you are not able to get your hands on one" ... LITERALLY the reason why i went for the Anbernic RG35XX, I waited for miyoo mini for months but never could get it. ordered the RG35XX without evening knowing Garlic OS was in the horizon, stock firmware was fuss free but Garlic OS really makes this device so much better.
Use my RG35XX way more often than my Miyoo mini. Feels more durable and more comfortable in my hands.
I just got mine and I love it!! Its worth the price! I got it mainly to play advance wars. Just that title alone on gba is $40 and you'd still have to buy a gameboy to play it. That's another $80+. So this device is a steal!! Especially when you can also play donkey Kong country 2, Pokemon and more!!
I’m thinking about doing the same thing for the exact reason. I still haven’t gotten over AW and Metroid Fusion from the GBA era. Did you have to manually obtain ROM or did it come with the device right out of the box?
I ordered the RG35XX on feb 4, but not directly from Anbernic, so it's probably not going to ship until Feb 25. I ordered the Transparent Purple one too because it reminds me of my first GBC. Can't wait. Will be my first portable emulator.
Have a link to it!? Having trouble tryna find it on Amazon
Got the grey one. Fantastic for me who reeally only got it for retro Pokémon. Now I’m gonna get my Uncle (who’s a big retro games guy) one as a gift.
the miyoo mini always looked way too small to me, at least for adults. but it looks like it would be the perfect little first handheld for a kid you want to introduce to old video games first. if only it wasnt so fragile, it would definitely need a thick rubber pumper case if you give it to a kid.
I compared it to my gba sp screen. Its slightly smaller, not a big deal.
I ordered one. You came onto my recommendations and I ordered direct and you have a new follower.
Friend and I use to play android emulators in like 2013. It sucked. Found this video earlier today. I just bought a miyoo mini plus and my friend just bought the purple ambernic rg35xx lol
Saw it in your shorts. Bought it right after.
It arrived 2 hours ago and I love it 😍
Do you have a link for it? Can’t find it in amazon 😅
Son Two , you post your shorts ? I just put them in the dresser drawer #wulffdendad
Thanks for the shout out, dude. Wonder twins unite, or whatever 😂
I hope the Miyoo Mini+ is decently available because the size looks like a nice medium, but the RG35XX looks solid
I wish Anbernic worked with Black Seraph to have GarlicOS installed on it by default. Ah well. Great review as always!
Not a good time for the Miyoo Mini + when Bob drops this video while the RG35xx is on sale at KeepRetro and the Miyoo Mini + isn't slated to launch until March
This device looks amazing. I am a small collector of retro consoles and am a sucker for handhelds. This will be my first handheld retro emulator so you convinced me to get this one. I hate touch screen phone emulation so this looks perfect for me.
why is everyone marketing this as a 50 dollar device when its double that after all the fees at checkout
reminds me of robotics in high school - fixing design flaws in software. it became a meme for my team since it happened so often.
It costs $83.63 including shipping and taxes to ship it to my country in the EU, so it's not quite that cheap for a lot of us. It's a far cry from the advertised $50 price.
That is just sad, man, in my country (México) there was no taxes when I get it. It was only 62 USD
Same here, went to checkout and turned my nose away completely. COMPLETE deal BREAKER for me. They apparently used to do free shipping but I guess they prefer the loss of interest.
Try living in my country. Amazon ships everything with big courrier cost.
Recently discovered your channel this year after listening to the Nontendo Podcast. I’ve always loved playing these games on OG hardware but it’s becoming way too expensive, so I’m gonna use this for my go to retro portable and only buy games I absolutely adore for OG hardware. Thanks for the recommendation and all the videos! :)
Commercial break begins at 1:56, regular programming resumes at 3:25 🙂
Shane is definitely one of my favorite creators. He did great on that Anbernic video. I hope more people give him a look.
Lol it ain't $60 anymore
I'd really love the RG35XX. However I'm holding out for a device that has wifi. The Achievements with Retroarch has someone become essential for my retro gaming. Help.
I think the Mini+ is gonna have WiFi, so that's a thing
Ambernic makes devices with wifi and bluetooth. You can see what they offer on their site.
bought one off of keep retro a few weeks ago and i am very excited to get my hands on it! it was great to see it got the wulff den approval too
If my miyoo mini ever dies I'll probably try this out
That purple looks great and ambernic devices are much more durable
Would love a new version with Bluetooth and wifi as well!
Coming back to watch this video again now that my RG35XX came in the mail today!! So far I'm loving it!!
I'm very interested in this device.
Been using my S21 Ultra for emulation and I'm spoilt I admit, it's a powerhouse but I would love something dedicated that in the future I can show my kids and be like "here's a shed ton of awesome old games on one device"
That sonic advance music over your logo sent me back in time
I bought this and it’s terrific. It’s great to have a ton of games right out of the box. It’s a real zero effort device if you just want some retro goodness.
Can u pls tell me if it has preloaded or can run dreamcast, mame, ps1, cps 1 2 and 3? Without lag or freezing? Thank you
@@akuma4u it won't run DC
@@ryulanda9399 thats weird. The one i just bought is 128gb and has like 40 dc games and the dc emu on it. The seller sent me the list. Theres like 25k games total. Unless that list is a fake list and what i will get is something different.
Do I need to order the version with extra storage (128gb) for it to come with preloaded ROM?
Been waiting to buy a dedicated emulator for about 2.5 years, this finally convinced me to pick up the Anbernic
the oled still running in the corner *"its been 84 years"*
This thing really is awesome. It feels so good, looks amazing, and Garlic is a great OS. If you're on the fence, i'd recommend it. You can't go wrong paying $50 to be able to play everything from PS1 and older at any time you want.
I was watching this video without my glasses on so I literally had to do a double take cuz I thought the guy at 12:07 was Bob
9:22 (siren wailing)
Police: Hey, freeze!
That cracks me up!
😅😅😂❤
Great video Bob! Gifted one of these to both my son and my brother for Christmas and they absolutely love them!
GBA did have sleep mode, but on a couple games only tho. I remember using it with Zelda Minish Cap.
Wulff looks like if Moistcritical and Linus tech tips merged into one human being 🤣
I just purchased an RG35XX off of Amazon for about $85 but it comes with an micro SD card with a bunch of games already on it. I also just got a Steam Deck, but I don't see myself carrying that around everywhere because of it's size. The Anbernic RG35XX is portable enough to bring with me and play while in waiting rooms at the doctor/dentist office, or play in my car while waiting, or even play on the bus/train. Steam Deck would be only taken out the house during vacation or business trips to play on the plane or hotel room. There's a bunch of games from the 90's and early 2000s that I have yet to play, I'll be able to play catch up on most of them on this
Did it come w the pokemons ?
You finally talked me into one, Bob. Nicely done.
I really like the RG35XX the only thing I don't like are the color of the buttons in the purple transparent model, other than that for me it's better than the Miyos
I got a Miyoo right before the hype, luckily. I will say it is my favorite emulation handheld, but I do feel like a big reason of its success is FOMO. Most of the other available handhelds are great for playing the same games. The biggest draw to the Miyoo (for me) is it's size and the OnionOS. Most of the Anbernic devices are great and with the RG35XX getting GarlicOS, seems like a no-brainer for those who want a similar experience.
I bought the mini before wulf found it too. His vids on it and love for it was what got me into this channel because I really couldn’t believe how much I loved that device. Got it for like 60 something including the case, charger, sd card, and screen protector. I had it in my cart so many times after that to order one for my brother. I regret not getting another now lol. Hopefully I can get the plus.
I just ordered the RG35XX. Very excited. Tnx for making these videos.
Stumbled across this video in the algorithm and was already in half a mind to get a handheld emulator. This video just solidified what I was going to get, thanks for the great video and advice!
Man I hear the sonic advance music again. So good. So nostalgic
I stopped playing my Miyoo Mini because it's just too small, might switch to this one!
I bought game boys for my daughters back in the day my age 71yr old my grandsons still like playing them when they visit I also have two Nintendo ds XL and the smaller one that we still play my wife addict to playing 42 classic games I have just started playing chessmaster what I like about them you can take them anywhere as you don't need WiFi
Just got mine today, within 10 minutes I was playing my Pokemon Red save game from an emulator I had on my phone. Very easy to set up
The fact that it works right out of the box is nice. Maybe after getting into my games I’ll tinker, but right off the bat I just wanna play games.
This is my daily driver that I can take out of the house without fear of loss or damage. Love it.
Im getting mine in the mail today and I've already ordered better shoulder buttons and a bigger battery, can't wait to set this thing up
I just bought one of these for a friend for Christmas, but Im seriously tempted to keep it and give him something else.
Thanks! I just grabbed 4 of these for my groomsmen!!
Good price point, unique, and something they will all use.
Non available on Amazon rn. Manufacturers website charges a lot for shopping with no ETA. I ordered off aliexpress (2/16/23) and the ETA is 3/9/23 to the states.
This looks like how some companies Weill make 2 identical products just different sized. Like the DSi and the DSi XL or the Samsung Galaxy S7 and the S7 edge.
Edit: Actually the best analogy is that it's like the "NEW" Nintendo 3DS and the "NEW" Nintendo 3DS XL because the larger one was easily available but the smaller one you had to track down.
I ordered mine a few days ago. I'm excited for it!
Same
Hey ya'll, I did the basic logo for GarllicOS. If anybody wants some logos for this kind of thing, just lemme know! I love this stuff.
