  • It’s everything I loved about the RGB30 but so much better. Android 13, touch screen, comfy as heck, circle dpad?!?!, made by a company with a good reputation of making great handhelds. Here's another home run. This is what this hobby is all about. Big thanks to LITNXT for providing this unit for review and for supporting small content creators like myself.

    Hey guys, at 2:54, I misspoke and said 3.5" instead of 3.95". The screen is very close to 4 inches. Sorry about the confusion. Words are hard

      this is copy pasta. xD (td, joey, javi)
      i think i found a way to reclaim the space lost when cloning to bigger sd card.
      (so can use one sd card setup for os and games, i tried this in rg35xxsp).
      if you guys were planning to make a video on this, please do.
      since the testpool is only me, this can be a troll, but i don't know.
      thank you.

      If you truly are intro retro gaming, Sega and even Neo Geo are not “obscure” systems by any means. They have been in the news in recent years with the releases of their mini consoles. The Sega mini 2, for instance, was released a little more than a year ago. More than our old age, what missing the significance of Sega means is probably that retro-gaming has become a mainstream entertainment area as opposed to a specialized hobby. And that is both good and bad.

    This was a great review. It went very in-depth on the pros and cons of the Cube without being super long and it was nice to see a review from someone who's taken the time to really set up their device. There's a software tweak to remove the anbernic launcher from the RG button but I don't know if it would fix the annoying behavior where it's switching the default launcher around.
    I have my RG Cube setup with Gamma's thumbstick fix, ES-DE configured, and the RG button launches ES-DE. I don't use an aftermarket launcher so that hasn't been a problem for me. I do have a little bit of light bleed but nothing noticeable to the naked eye. It doesn't bother me in real world usage.

Also, you can change your layout in settings, too. You should see one that says edit layout and then you want to change it to the size of the next wallpaper. Its difficult to explain.

      @leonboy9388 It's understandable. If you want, you can wait for all the early batches to be sold and then purchase one if you're still interested in a couple of months. That's probably safer. I've read LITNXT return policy and it's pretty good. It says they test everything before shipping, but personally, I've never had a defective unit from them, so I dont know for sure. Hope this helps

      I personally really enjoyed the RGB30 and I really like added perks of a square screen. This is a much better version of that handheld. After playing 3DS & DS emulation I probably wouldn't care to switch over to the RG406P is that was out. To me, that's the biggesting selling point of this handheld because you can't play 3DS or DS well on many of these handhelds.
