Got the missus to get me one based on this review (and many others), and whilst everyone else seems to rave about it, for me, personally, it has been nothing but utter garbage. Within 30minutes of first turning it on, the games slowed down to a crawl and became unplayable (at one point, takes 40seconds for a basic NeoGeo game to boot). Have tried everything, from a new SD card (which invalidates the warranty, making this basically now, a 100e hunk of plastic shite, with all honesty), to different controllers, a fan to keep it cool, to using different emulators. I have spent a fair few hours of my time, trying to find a workaround, and now I cannot even get a refund or a new one, because of attempting to change the SD card. Basically, for me, it seemed like a great deal, but has actually turned out to be perhaps the worst pile of shit in retro gaming I have ever purchased. Honestly, stick to official releases, at least then you know the thing is actually useable. Very disappointed (and no, not OSGs fault as I probably just got a shit one), but worth pointing out that there does seem to be a risk of getting a duffer. Wife is also unhappy as now she is convinced she bought me toss. Quite sad overall.
Im sorry you have had this experience mate but you arent alone, it does seem very hit or miss to the quality... mine was class and i have after passed it onto one of my patreons and he loves it.. lots of people are happy but the odd comment came through about problems, this one guy has had nothing but trouble and they are too refusing to refund ... for that reason i have told the vendor that i wont be reviewing another item they have sent me.... i understand that there maybe issues with some units and thats to be expected in any console even xbox and playstation but i cant be associated to a company that doesnt refund. I understand your wifes anger. Ive pinned this comment so other people know the risks. I know i said the systems i tried were good which they were...i have however seen videos claiming it emulates the n64 great which it doesnt at all and also the psp which the games on it must have been hand picked for using low resources cos anything taxing is rubbish. I do feel slightly responsible for you getting one though so sorry... if there is anything i can do let me know
Sorry to hear this also. I bought the 64gb version and the problems I have were minor. The box art and game summaries (metadata) disappeared for a few of the systems. I think this was because I turned it off prematurely. Also playing some of the older consoles caused the sound on my tv to stop working (atari 800, intellivision). I eventually got the sound working though. But will stay away from selecting the older consoles or use a different tv. Other than that, everything has worked ok. I know you don't want to spend any more money and I don't recommend this but they do sell just the sd cards (with the content on it).
@@oldstylegaming Not your fault, plenty of other TH-camrs singing its praises. Just sad, because I really wanted it (I have pretty much every other official mini console, and love collecting them) but wanted this for the Amiga and Atari ST stuff, which is pretty difficult to get going without some knowhow. It seemed a great deal, but honestly, has been utterly useless. Just frustrating, and seems to me, they have been handpicking good versions with quality components to send for review knowing it will get snapped up. Very disappointed tbh. Ah well, least it gave me some ROMs -_-
@@chrismcconnell8248 you not got a PC? Thats the best way to emulate amiga and st. I can sort you out with a great frontend for amiga with all the games
@@oldstylegaming I do indeed, mai thing that got me into emulation 20odd years ago, just always found the Amiga and ST difficult to figure out, so any help would be fantastic.
I did a review on the Super Console X Pro some time ago and I've been really happy with that console, sounds like it's very similar in performance to the X cube you've reviewed. I'm mostly into the retro computers like C64, Spectrum, Amstrad, Amiga and Atari and I found it's great that you can plug in a wireless USB keyboard and mouse combo to play games on the Amiga and the other retro computers without any issues.
I'm pleased to read you can plug in a keyboard/mouse. I was just going to ask about that after reading some posts online about how they didn't work with this. That'll be perfect for games like Dungeon Master. Is there any way you could get old DOS PC games like Kings Quest running on this?
That looks great for the price, 50K games too! Perfect for a xmas gift to someone interested in retro/emu but don't have hardware, they get a instant collection, noice :)
i wanted an inexpensive way to play the old retro games i grew up with. i just ordered one after watching your video review. cant wait to play this weekend!!!
I have the OG Xbox that has all the old game emulators from atari 2600 to SNES and I have the N64 and PS1 emulators to play on my PC. I would love to have this that plays everything on one system that would be awesome!
For the price, this actually seems like a great deal! Heck, if only ten percent of the games ran perfectly, it would still be a great deal! Not to mention those controllers. It's a steal for that price! :D
Great video mate. yeah I got the Super Console X King recently and I totally agree with your sentiments, I actually think this system is better value. But gee, to just plug in and play and have so many games at your instant disposal, this really is very hard to pass up for the retro gamer fan.
I've been wanting something like this for awhile now, and I bought this thanks to your review. You have great content, through and through, OSG. Keep up the good work, mate.
Looks like a good system at a great price. Only thing about comparing the cost of it to the Amiga Mini is that the Amiga people are actually paying for legally licensing all those games, and they're getting new molds made for all the parts - Amiga case, CD32 controller, Amiga tank mouse, and that all costs a lot of money. This can be so cheap because all the work was done by other people, and even the molds are mismatched clones from Playstation controllers and mini NES consoles. Just seems fair to point that out, if there's going to be any comparison.
I heard that the Amiga mini didnt (and couldnt sell with) the whdload stuff as that is for none commercial use only... and come on Robin... how many people are gonna pay 120 pound for a mini and not put illegal roms on... no on... i think yhey have like 30 confirmed games that tbh aren't really that great.... and how many of the kids that really did the hard work coding the games will see any money from that licensing? Im not saying its right but at the end of the day they are basically the same thing just one is pretending to do it legally
Thanks for this video. You mentioned it in the other video on which I responded, and this is exactly what I meant. This will suit me perfectly. So thanks a lot!🙏🏻
Wow I really need one of these mate. I hate messing on with pi’s etc so this is perfect. Chuck in the controllers as well am wow what a bargain. Definitely gonna get one!
Hey, thanks for the honest review, im another one that bought the console after I saw your vid, ...looks like a fun way to spend with the kids over xmas :)
What I would do is get an equivalent name brand microsd card and copy over everything. The cheap cards they use in these are notorious for going bad even if the other hardware is solid.
Ive pinned this cos someone else has mentioned the same thing, I have fell foul to cheap SD cards and USB sticks in the past and there is nothing worse than when they go wrong with no back up... Sandisk are the ones I always go for now
@@oldstylegaming Is there any chance i could get a copy of your back up, i screwed myself with a default setting and most still works but you lose a lot of controller settings and game roms thank you.
@@christopherdunn317 i gave my system away to a patreon ... i kniw him though and im sure he will pull the image off. Ill ask him... what size card was yours as you can only clone like to like..mine was 64gb i think
Nice break from the norm mate and hey i may even get one of these as i so love playing old the old classic amiga and c64 games on my pc. Keep up the great work and roll on the next one.
Just bought one - thanks to your review! I opted for the Console X Max model with 2 wireless ps2-like pads... Never bought anything from aliexpress, I'm scared to death... hope everything's will be alright! (it's a christmas gift...)
well i would never have bought one as i have everything i need but for anyone wanting something nice and compact, easy to use that does the job for cheap its defo worth the money
I hope they have enough to fill all the orders you've just given them, (well my order at least!), I also hope that you get a piece of the action if we used your link!
@@oldstylegaming, hopefully you can make a further video, once you have explored it more thoroughly, to explain any settings you find that remedy any glitches etc, like the one you mentioned about Soul Calibur. Cheers anyhoo, enjoying your vids mate.
👍 📫 ✈ 🇬🇧 🍻 🎮 👍 😃 Done matey! Brucie says "That price is right!" Cheers!. Had the X Pro last year... arrived in only 9 days from the same place!! Keep up the ace channel, Pal!
@@oldstylegaming Will do man. I go way back to the spectrum to console gaming to pc's I spent £850 on a Saphire 6800XT so im hardcore. First love was the speccy though. Thanks for your channel. : )
@@fodder687769 i was playing Robocop on the the speccy on this today :-) i was a c64 lad but all my mates had Spectrums so i have some fond memories of that system too
Just bought one based on you're video mate. £37 plus £7 tax seems a bargain for what it is and what it can do...thanks for uploading this you should do more vids like this in future if you get the chance.
I can't believe how cheap that is for what you get? I would definitely consider getting one of these based off your review coz I trust your judgement and we seem to have the same taste in games. I use MAME and Retro arc on my Galaxy Tablet with either 8bitdo SNES controller or my arcade fight Stick but I can't emulate Dreamcast or PS1 or anything polygon based so this would be a massive selling point for me. As always great video mate.
Was trying to save money! Ordered one as soon as I finished watching. It’s not as cheap as you said for the version with 50,000 games but still a good deal. What was the music you played in the video? I found myself humming along, I know it well but can’t remember what game it is from.
Its a remake of an ocean loader from the c64. 50k games is a great package but really you could never play them all.... you could have a good go at it though lol
@@oldstylegaming listened to the video again. I missed the bit where you gave the right price for the 256GB version. I only remembered the price you gave for the base version. I figured I might as well go for the upgraded model. Great video though, it’s made my day.
I first saw this reviewed on the immortal John Hancock channel, he always tells it like it is. So was really interested to hear what you would say. This does appear impressive. I use my shield TV for emulation which does an amazing job on the Dreamcast. My son just got me a Pi 400 for Christmas and pimiga is awesome. I think if I didn't already have these systems and the C64 maxi I would be getting one of these as it really seems to do a good job. I'm more into older systems to be honest. 8 and 16 bit. Big Atari fan, pretty much have all the systems that appeared in the UK. I've never seen anyone testing intellivison emu. My favourite game was Tron deadly discs. I have that console too and the game controller is rather unique, I've not been able to match game play in emu due to the control method. Great review and channel!
I saw his too and although he is right about a lot of the stuff... he is very misleading on the N64 .... the emulation on that system on this console is pants...and i mean unplayable on certain games like goldeneye which lets face it is the game people want...i didnt touch on it in my review but went back on and checked it for people who asked in the comments...other than that and a few little niggles that most likely could be tweaked in individual emulators its worth the money although i have had some negative responses back from people who have bought them and had major problems... so i think its obviously a hit or miss thing on what the quality of the console you get sent
@@oldstylegaming I think the most important point is, these look the same and may have the same name, but I doubt they are all the same inside. The shield is a fantastic emulator and I've had mine for many years. But do you remember the ouya that did N64 very well before they pulled the plug on it. It had the odd stutter but very playable. I did immediately notice you did no N64. I have to say I spend most of my time on 8 and 16 bit games I do play Ocean Horn on my shield over and over, find it very relaxing after having given up COD and the like, my wife said it was making me too aggressive.
I just purchased the simulator today yeah I got to wait for a while to come in but lately I've been wanting to play the classic games and I only want a few games honestly I'm not a hardcore gamer so this is actually perfect for me
Maybe I´ll give it a go if I find a joystick, I grew up using joysticks/keyboards and I´m 100% right handed, that means in the arcades I had to cross my arms, and play with a gamepad controller with the left directional keys is simply IMPOSSIBLE for me...
Equipped with an upgraded version of S905 chip, 64-bit 4-core CPU, 5-core Mali-450 graphics processor. 1G RAM 8G ROM from the seller... i cant confirm this is correct at this time though as ive not opened it up or gone into the code with putty
China mate, everything from there is cheaper...which used to mean sub standard stuff but slowly they are catching up and their tech is getting better and better and still at low prices
@@oldstylegaming : …of course, with the caveat that cheap memory cards still cannot be trusted and therefore you want to copy over the game content to a (real) SanDisk product. 😎
Wow. This could be the subject of a great in-depth video. I'd easily sit through a half hour or 45 minutes of you checking out the different systems. Have you tried much of the Amiga games? Curious how well it emulated various games. Cinemaware stuff and Pinball Dreams especially. (I saw the list had over a thousand for the Amiga directory!)
@@oldstylegaming of course. However the simplicity of having it all in one little box that anyone in the house can use without learning how to use UAE... priceless. My wife would play Lemmings more often lol.
Hi i'm thinking of getting this Cube console or one similar. The only thing holding me back at the moment is that i'm a massive fan of the classic Arcade games and console games of the 70s 80s and 90s but ive heard that some or sometimes many of these games dont work, Is there any truth in that and what games didn't work? Also i prefer wired controllers so would any USB controllers work on this system. I would appreciate some advice before i buy a system like this even though on paper they seem Brilliant? Thanks. Regards Darren
yeah mate... i mean its no MiSTer but for 35 quid you cant really go wrong. if you think 35 quid for a rasp pi, 5 quid for a 4 port usb, case around 10 pound, controller these ones included are cheap but still go for 8 quid each on ebay, 5-7 pound for the 64gb sd card, couple of quid for the HDMI cable, say 5 quid for the power adapter.... that comes in at 64 quid and thats without anything on it... no brainer really
Looks like a interesting snazzy dude... though I can't disagree with ya on the name. Sounds like the kinda name a Dev's 5 year old cooked up when asked cause the Devs racked their brains tryin to think of somethin then just plain flat out gave up at it. :P (Though to be fair, though I can have Critical Hits at times, i'm on average not real awesome at Name Thinking myself.) Curiosity: Did problems with any of the games get addressed or were they Ported to this with all legacy bugs/problems totally intact? Or was determining this even possible for you during your hands on? For example, one PSP Game I once had & played was "Legend of Heroes: Tears of Vermillion"... wasn't a bad game, but had its flaws. Especially notable was times when the Dialogue Translation into English could be a real fixer-upper at times & there's even one scene where it looked like attempt to Translate Dialogue into English flat out fucked up & resulted in illegible gibberish that somehow never got fixed before Game Release.
Quite impressive that it comes with Amiga games, but the destroying enemies animation in Apidya doesn't seem right, it seems that it's missing some frames, but maybe it's just the recording.
Never played those before as I grew up with NES and PlayStation but I’m finding Amiga and Commodore fascinating. Love the unique sound design and that a lot of those games were unique to the systems and not ports.
@@oldstylegaming its turned up and oh yes it is brilliant, I cannot praise it enough. The only downside are the N64 games which keep crashing but that is more than made up for by all my favourite Amiga and c64 games being there. What impressed me most was that it came with all the ps1 Resident evil games for the PS 1 and they work perfectly. Happy days indeed, thanks again for the review.
I didnt see the saturn in the list mate.. i know that saturn emulation is very flakey though in general thats why i bought a saturn for comparisons... ill have a look on tomorra and get back to you ok
Great video and for £30 it looks to be great value for money… but the whole online retailer website looks dodgy AF. As much as I’m tempted I just don’t think I could trust the website. 🤔
Lol I havent... ive played maybe 5000 games and thats not on this console.... i havent counted them either on here but i doubt there really is 50k on though
Have purchased the console x pro don't suppose you would like to do a video on getting c64 running and loading better have had lots of problems with it
Cool, thanks for the review, I just bought the Super Console X Pro from Ali Express as a Christmas present to myself! Does anyone who has the 256GB version of this (or the normal, "non-Pro" Super Cube X variant for that matter) know how much of the 256GB is filled with the pre-installed games and how much space is left for copying own stuff?
Im not sure mate... maybe not much if its got loads of games on... i have 2tb of games and theres still loads more to get... depends whats on i suppose.
@@oldstylegaming Okay, so I hope the manual is any good and the process of putting your own stuff on the console is more or less hassle-free. I'm not an expert when it comes to emulation and ROMs and settings, that's why I opted for this thing, as I find it all a bit too complicated on my PC for my taste. But I find the lack of Sega CD and Dreamcast games disturbing, so I definitely will have to pimp my Super Console X Pro quite a bit! 😁
@@oldstylegaming About 6 weeks or so, I may have just have had a bad one. I backed it up because when watching reviews on it, it was recomended. At least I have all the games on my hard drive now, so I can play them on my PC as well.
@@oldstylegaming Many thanks for taking time to test it out OSG 👍👍 The *Beelink Super Console X King* is supposed to be handling N64 emulation much better.
Honestly i AM not a big fan of this modern retrô games consoles, only the ones That you can insert old carts from console and i afmit some portables are cool (altough i never liked portables because of the small disply).i prefer the Raspberry Pi. Harder to configure , but more customable. You can insert the games. But i have to agree that the price is cheap. I just hope that the gamepads have some durability
Yeah im saying they are good but really ive only had them a few days .... but as far as functionality goes on the couple of hours i played today it was spot on, one the batteries are in it feels no different to my PS3 one which is now coming up 15 year old and still going strong
@@oldstylegaming Yeah. It’s like Netflix though. I go on to play something, but struggle choosing, there’s that much choice! I bought Super Street Fighter 2 on American Import for about £100, when it was released. You’ve got 50,000 games on this, for less that that. It blows my mind how technology today makes that possible. But yeah, it’s worth the £60 I paid for it. Even if 10% of the games worked properly, it’s still worth it. Need a keyboard and mouse for Amiga/Atari ST games.
What version of the Pi could be inside though? 🤔 A Pi 3 on The Pi Hut comes in at £33 on its own. I doubt this is a Pi4. My Pi4 4GB cost £75 with a special case and the official plug. If it is a Pi, you don't even need to use that cheap controller. Plug in a 8bitdo Pro or Pro+ in there (it's my emulator controller of choice now). I know that most of us that use emulators don't have legitimate ROM files (it's impossible to 'own' MAME roms lol!), but to blatantly sell a machine with thousands of illegal roms is typical of AliExpress I guess. 😂
This will take any controller mate that you throw at it, its only emulationstation at the end of the day,... i would think its a clone of a pi but maybe not a clone of Pi3 as the emulation seems too smooth on DreamCast but could be wrong ...its been ages since i had a Pi
I think this system is just custom chips. The pi is not as powerful as the Nvidia shield. I used to bring the Dreamcast down to play my favourite game soul calibur, but now just use the shield and I really can't tell any difference, to be honest the shield is clearer on a modern display. Anyone that doesn't have either a pi or shield, the super console X cube is a no brainer after the great review.
@@1960ARC i opened it up after the review cos some people were asking, heres the picture on my community tab th-cam.com/channels/uSgSEfeK4xPA0Yv7hfsZOw.htmlcommunity?lb=UgkxlgusPRJdWGlN_rPd1eHLAblTJd1sMdbk
Finally got for Father's Day but none of the audio works for the PlayStation 1 games and I don't know how to fix it through all the settings I went through plus my beats of rage won't even open up do you know how to fix any of this sir
I gave mine away to a Patreon, however if you message the seller they should be able to point you to a troubleshooting video ... if they dont reply let me know and i can email them for you .
🙏🤛🙌👍 Cool video! P.S. You have more than 31 thousand of subscribers which means that there is high interest in retro games and equipment. I hope that there is also chance for me then. 👍
I have bought this but have found an immediate problem. I bought the 256Gb version and it gives you instructions on how to download the game ROMs (why they could not have those ROMs on the drive already is beyond me). However the link no longer works so I cannot at the moment download the games which makes the console useless. If they cannot fix the problem I will be asking for my money back as I will be left with a console I cannot actually use.
Ill email the bloke who sent me the console and ask him mate. If you can email me on pagman35@gmail.com ill get the reply back to you. Im sorry if my review has led to this, i only had the 64gb one and never tried gettinh anymore games. You would have thought that the games would have been on though...thats ridiculous
@@leonarddurecki5988 I think hes got a corrupt mem card or something, Ive put him in touch with the guy who sent me the unit and i think hes told him to get a refund
Just curious, got the missus to get me one of these as a recommendation from this channel (love it btw), but within 20mins of playing, pretty much every game is stuttering, and unplayable, regardless of whatever emulator I switch to. Just wondering what the workaround is, because otherwise, this is just a waste of money , really if it is a regular thing (and the wife is a bit upset, because she now thinks she got me a duffer of a gift). Am using stock 64GB one, but differs from the one in the video (is called Super Console X Pro), so wondering if there is anything I can do. Many thanks, peeps!
I don't have one of these, but I'm surprised that you say it's the same on all systems. The NES and other 8 bit should be a piece of cake. I would consider getting another SD card and copying the one you have on to it. As it may be an SD card issue not reading fast enough. Fingers crossed!
Many thanks, I was thinking this myself, as it seems weird it is for all. It runs fine for a while, and obviously obviously emulators work better than others, so I swapped them over. But I can play say, a MAME, game like Sunset Riders with no issues for 20mins, swap to a PS1 game for 20mins, stuttering begins, and massive slowdown and sound errors, and then I can swap back to a game I know was working excellently from the get go, on same emulator, and have the exact issue from launch. So was wondering if a hardware issue, but hoping just a crap SD card, otherwise was a waste of 100e (wife went through another website and got a more expensive one, silly woman lol). But thanks for reply!
@@chrismcconnell8248 sounds to me that it's possibly over heating! Modern processors throttle back when they get too hot. Heat sink may not be fitted to the processor correctly, ie need thermal paste, in any case improving cooling may cure your problem. If it's the SD card when you start a new game it should be ok for a few seconds, perhaps a minute, but then the card may not be fast enough. Good luck
@@1960ARC Just changed the SD card now to a Sandisk one, so if that doesn't work, I suspect overheating then also, but literally what option I will have then with all honesty, as I am not really skilled or confident enough to start taking the thing apart to make better cooling or such. Hope not, but shall see in a moment , I guess. Thank you anyways!
Depends on what system you are on, remember most of these will have been on crt so thats the problem, however most emulators now has options for filters that smooth things out... but i havent checked how to do it on here
yeah will do mate, its just emulation station underneath so whatever you plug in will fire up the configuration screen and bingo, ill try with my xbox one controller tomorrow with the usb plugged in see what happens and let you know for sure
Hi mate. My box areived but made a school boy error when configing controller. Now i cant go to settings with start button, does anyone have any tips as to how infix it?
@@oldstylegaming thanks for replying. Because all pads are in essence same device they all behaved the same. I sorted it by taking all the wireless usbs out and then started the console with my wired xbox 1 controller. That allowed me to config xbox controller and access start menu and then reconfig the wireless ones properly. I had that awful feell of dread just like when I rode my evel kneivel over my sisters hair net and knackered it on xmas day 1977ish . Lol. Glad its sorted i can get stuck in now. Cheers mate.

@@oldstylegaming will do, cheers
Great video mate. yeah I got the Super Console X King recently and I totally agree with your sentiments, I actually think this system is better value. But gee, to just plug in and play and have so many games at your instant disposal, this really is very hard to pass up for the retro gamer fan.
Totally agree
I've been wanting something like this for awhile now, and I bought this thanks to your review. You have great content, through and through, OSG. Keep up the good work, mate.
Yours still working fine?
@@wanghotangho5803 I never got around to actually programming the system. :/
Just ordered it and can't wait.
It'll guarantee many joyful hours in this winter.
Looks like a good system at a great price. Only thing about comparing the cost of it to the Amiga Mini is that the Amiga people are actually paying for legally licensing all those games, and they're getting new molds made for all the parts - Amiga case, CD32 controller, Amiga tank mouse, and that all costs a lot of money. This can be so cheap because all the work was done by other people, and even the molds are mismatched clones from Playstation controllers and mini NES consoles. Just seems fair to point that out, if there's going to be any comparison.
I heard that the Amiga mini didnt (and couldnt sell with) the whdload stuff as that is for none commercial use only... and come on Robin... how many people are gonna pay 120 pound for a mini and not put illegal roms on... no on... i think yhey have like 30 confirmed games that tbh aren't really that great.... and how many of the kids that really did the hard work coding the games will see any money from that licensing? Im not saying its right but at the end of the day they are basically the same thing just one is pretending to do it legally
Loved your video! Great retro console! Watching from West Virginia!❤️👍
Ordered, 256 gb version
Thanks for this video. You mentioned it in the other video on which I responded, and this is exactly what I meant. This will suit me perfectly. So thanks a lot!🙏🏻
It has wifi? I didn't know that till this video. Other reviewers never mentioned that. Glad you showed that in this video.
Iv ordered it,can't wait to play the amiga and c64 games 😁 thanks for the great review 👍
Nice one mate im sure you will be happy at the low price
@@oldstylegaming it really is such a bargain,compared to what you would pay for the upcoming amiga mini,it's a no brainer.
Wow I really need one of these mate. I hate messing on with pi’s etc so this is perfect. Chuck in the controllers as well am wow what a bargain. Definitely gonna get one!
its well worth the money mate
Hey, thanks for the honest review, im another one that bought the console after I saw your vid, ...looks like a fun way to spend with the kids over xmas :)
Great family fun for that price mate
Yeah man...something that is accessible for the wife and kids and has about all the great systems I used to and still play...
i was looking for a review on this from you and found it thank you very much
I ordered one, could not help myself. Hope it lasts can't wait to enter nostalgiaville! Love the vids!
What I would do is get an equivalent name brand microsd card and copy over everything. The cheap cards they use in these are notorious for going bad even if the other hardware is solid.
Ive pinned this cos someone else has mentioned the same thing, I have fell foul to cheap SD cards and USB sticks in the past and there is nothing worse than when they go wrong with no back up... Sandisk are the ones I always go for now
@@oldstylegaming I've had good performance from Sandisk as well. :)
@@oldstylegaming Is there any chance i could get a copy of your back up, i screwed myself with a default setting and most still works but you lose a lot of controller settings and game roms thank you.
@@christopherdunn317 i gave my system away to a patreon ... i kniw him though and im sure he will pull the image off. Ill ask him... what size card was yours as you can only clone like to like..mine was 64gb i think
Great idea please do more
I appreciate when someone knows how to effectively deploy the word "shite".
Lol
Looks ok. Been considering something like this for a while, and at that price I’m tempted
its defo worth the money with the 48% off... im not sure its a 60 pound base price console though
Nice break from the norm mate and hey i may even get one of these as i so love playing old the old classic amiga and c64 games on my pc. Keep up the great work and roll on the next one.
Just bought one - thanks to your review! I opted for the Console X Max model with 2 wireless ps2-like pads... Never bought anything from aliexpress, I'm scared to death... hope everything's will be alright! (it's a christmas gift...)
Hopefully it comes in time. Ali can take a while.
I have asked for the pro version, so hopefully I will be trying that out at Christmas
i bet that version is really good...maybe ill get one for review one day lol....if the seller trusts me this time hahahaha
There is a heating issue with them after about an hour of gameplay playing the more cpu demanding games. Just needs the heat sink upgrading.
Great review buddy, I review this product a few months back and definitely worth it. 👍
well i would never have bought one as i have everything i need but for anyone wanting something nice and compact, easy to use that does the job for cheap its defo worth the money
I hope they have enough to fill all the orders you've just given them, (well my order at least!), I also hope that you get a piece of the action if we used your link!
Nah im not getting paid commission or nothing but still hope they sell cos they pretty good
@@oldstylegaming, hopefully you can make a further video, once you have explored it more thoroughly, to explain any settings you find that remedy any glitches etc, like the one you mentioned about Soul Calibur.
Cheers anyhoo, enjoying your vids mate.
Will do mate, im off all weekend so might have a look tomorrow

Done matey! Brucie says "That price is right!" Cheers!. Had the X Pro last year... arrived in only 9 days from the same place!!
Keep up the ace channel, Pal!
Just bought the 128GB version with the snide PS3 controllers. Hope it turns up for Christmas haha cheers OSG.
Nice one mate, will keep you busy for over xmas :-) let me know how you get on
@@oldstylegaming Will do man. I go way back to the spectrum to console gaming to pc's I spent £850 on a Saphire 6800XT so im hardcore. First love was the speccy though. Thanks for your channel. : )
@@fodder687769 i was playing Robocop on the the speccy on this today :-) i was a c64 lad but all my mates had Spectrums so i have some fond memories of that system too
Looks like my Amiga, snes, vectrex, PS1, N64 and GameCube are off to eBay, this will save a lot of room. Great review.
Just bought one based on you're video mate. £37 plus £7 tax seems a bargain for what it is and what it can do...thanks for uploading this you should do more vids like this in future if you get the chance.
Yeah mate at the black friday sales price its an absolute bargain i think.
Nice.. maybe do a follow up video on it.
I can't believe how cheap that is for what you get? I would definitely consider getting one of these based off your review coz I trust your judgement and we seem to have the same taste in games. I use MAME and Retro arc on my Galaxy Tablet with either 8bitdo SNES controller or my arcade fight Stick but I can't emulate Dreamcast or PS1 or anything polygon based so this would be a massive selling point for me. As always great video mate.
Think I'd like to buy one. Thanks for reviewing
Just bought the 256 one. Diving straight into Amiga and Commodore 64
Was trying to save money! Ordered one as soon as I finished watching. It’s not as cheap as you said for the version with 50,000 games but still a good deal.
What was the music you played in the video? I found myself humming along, I know it well but can’t remember what game it is from.
Its a remake of an ocean loader from the c64. 50k games is a great package but really you could never play them all.... you could have a good go at it though lol
@@oldstylegaming listened to the video again. I missed the bit where you gave the right price for the 256GB version. I only remembered the price you gave for the base version.
I figured I might as well go for the upgraded model. Great video though, it’s made my day.
Ohh I'm definitely getting mine Monday the one with 117000 games
Yooo OSG my man that game I was looking for was Olli and Lissa ❤️💪
I first saw this reviewed on the immortal John Hancock channel, he always tells it like it is. So was really interested to hear what you would say.
This does appear impressive. I use my shield TV for emulation which does an amazing job on the Dreamcast. My son just got me a Pi 400 for Christmas and pimiga is awesome.
I think if I didn't already have these systems and the C64 maxi I would be getting one of these as it really seems to do a good job.
I'm more into older systems to be honest.
8 and 16 bit. Big Atari fan, pretty much have all the systems that appeared in the UK. I've never seen anyone testing intellivison emu. My favourite game was Tron deadly discs.
I have that console too and the game controller is rather unique, I've not been able to match game play in emu due to the control method.
Great review and channel!
I saw his too and although he is right about a lot of the stuff... he is very misleading on the N64 .... the emulation on that system on this console is pants...and i mean unplayable on certain games like goldeneye which lets face it is the game people want...i didnt touch on it in my review but went back on and checked it for people who asked in the comments...other than that and a few little niggles that most likely could be tweaked in individual emulators its worth the money although i have had some negative responses back from people who have bought them and had major problems... so i think its obviously a hit or miss thing on what the quality of the console you get sent
@@oldstylegaming I think the most important point is, these look the same and may have the same name, but I doubt they are all the same inside. The shield is a fantastic emulator and I've had mine for many years. But do you remember the ouya that did N64 very well before they pulled the plug on it. It had the odd stutter but very playable. I did immediately notice you did no N64. I have to say I spend most of my time on 8 and 16 bit games
I do play Ocean Horn on my shield over and over, find it very relaxing after having given up COD and the like, my wife said it was making me too aggressive.
I just purchased the simulator today yeah I got to wait for a while to come in but lately I've been wanting to play the classic games and I only want a few games honestly I'm not a hardcore gamer so this is actually perfect for me
Maybe I´ll give it a go if I find a joystick, I grew up using joysticks/keyboards and I´m 100% right handed, that means in the arcades I had to cross my arms, and play with a gamepad controller with the left directional keys is simply IMPOSSIBLE for me...
What are the hardware specifications?
btw, Soul Calibur on the DC is always stunning! 💪👍
Equipped with an upgraded version of S905 chip, 64-bit 4-core CPU, 5-core Mali-450 graphics processor.
1G RAM 8G ROM
from the seller... i cant confirm this is correct at this time though as ive not opened it up or gone into the code with putty
@@oldstylegaming thanks!
Have you found anyway to change the control for each system? Some of the NES games don't control the way I like. Thanks.
Its just emuelec and emulationstation so i would think you could. Start by googling emulationstation config controls for separate platforms
It looks very interesting but how can it be so cheap? The cost doesn't even cover the price of the memory card and controllers!
China mate, everything from there is cheaper...which used to mean sub standard stuff but slowly they are catching up and their tech is getting better and better and still at low prices
@@oldstylegaming : …of course, with the caveat that cheap memory cards still cannot be trusted and therefore you want to copy over the game content to a (real) SanDisk product. 😎
Wow. This could be the subject of a great in-depth video. I'd easily sit through a half hour or 45 minutes of you checking out the different systems. Have you tried much of the Amiga games? Curious how well it emulated various games. Cinemaware stuff and Pinball Dreams especially. (I saw the list had over a thousand for the Amiga directory!)
You have a pc?
@@oldstylegaming of course. However the simplicity of having it all in one little box that anyone in the house can use without learning how to use UAE... priceless. My wife would play Lemmings more often lol.
Hi i'm thinking of getting this Cube console or one similar. The only thing holding me back at the moment is that i'm a massive fan of the classic Arcade games and console games of the 70s 80s and 90s but ive heard that some or sometimes many of these games dont work, Is there any truth in that and what games didn't work? Also i prefer wired controllers so would any USB controllers work on this system. I would appreciate some advice before i buy a system like this even though on paper they seem Brilliant? Thanks. Regards Darren
It actually looks all right!
yeah mate... i mean its no MiSTer but for 35 quid you cant really go wrong. if you think 35 quid for a rasp pi, 5 quid for a 4 port usb, case around 10 pound, controller these ones included are cheap but still go for 8 quid each on ebay, 5-7 pound for the 64gb sd card, couple of quid for the HDMI cable, say 5 quid for the power adapter.... that comes in at 64 quid and thats without anything on it... no brainer really
Cant argue with this at the price of a family takeaway. I reckon there is a new line of videos you could go down here.
if they send me stuff ill review it and maybe give it away after as ive got too much
Just curious how something like this can be legally sold? You think Nintendo et al would go after them the same way they do emulation sites.
From China... they dont have the laws we do on copyright
Looks like a interesting snazzy dude... though I can't disagree with ya on the name. Sounds like the kinda name a Dev's 5 year old cooked up when asked cause the Devs racked their brains tryin to think of somethin then just plain flat out gave up at it. :P (Though to be fair, though I can have Critical Hits at times, i'm on average not real awesome at Name Thinking myself.)
Curiosity: Did problems with any of the games get addressed or were they Ported to this with all legacy bugs/problems totally intact? Or was determining this even possible for you during your hands on? For example, one PSP Game I once had & played was "Legend of Heroes: Tears of Vermillion"... wasn't a bad game, but had its flaws. Especially notable was times when the Dialogue Translation into English could be a real fixer-upper at times & there's even one scene where it looked like attempt to Translate Dialogue into English flat out fucked up & resulted in illegible gibberish that somehow never got fixed before Game Release.
Quite impressive that it comes with Amiga games, but the destroying enemies animation in Apidya doesn't seem right, it seems that it's missing some frames, but maybe it's just the recording.
Yeah i didnt notice that when playing and its the first time ive used this capture card so maybe its that
Just ordered the 128gb version for 50 pounds. I am really looking forward to reliving my teenage years playing the c64 and Amiga games.
Good times mate
Never played those before as I grew up with NES and PlayStation but I’m finding Amiga and Commodore fascinating. Love the unique sound design and that a lot of those games were unique to the systems and not ports.
@@oldstylegaming its turned up and oh yes it is brilliant, I cannot praise it enough. The only downside are the N64 games which keep crashing but that is more than made up for by all my favourite Amiga and c64 games being there. What impressed me most was that it came with all the ps1 Resident evil games for the PS 1 and they work perfectly. Happy days indeed, thanks again for the review.
@@wanghotangho5803 yep even now I love listening to the music on the c64. Especially by Rob Hubbard. I think the SNES and ps1 are fantastic consoles.
thats really good value !!
Convinced me mate - just ordered one here in NZ

Did you try the sega saturn games, that’s what I was really looking for.
I didnt see the saturn in the list mate.. i know that saturn emulation is very flakey though in general thats why i bought a saturn for comparisons... ill have a look on tomorra and get back to you ok
Great video and for £30 it looks to be great value for money… but the whole online retailer website looks dodgy AF.
As much as I’m tempted I just don’t think I could trust the website. 🤔

Looks pretty good is it OK ordering from Aliexpress OSG

Does the intellivision and atari 800 work? Are the controls all setup already?
Can you save your games like on the SNES Mini?
Have purchased the console x pro don't suppose you would like to do a video on getting c64 running and loading better have had lots of problems with it
What problems you having? If you give me a list of games or something ill check them out on the console i have. Are you using a keyboard?
Got a super console x cube, it’s mostly great but how do you get the music on the Amiga CD32 Roms working?
Hmm im not sure, i believe on most emus they are played as tracks though like a virtual disc drive...
Cool, thanks for the review, I just bought the Super Console X Pro from Ali Express as a Christmas present to myself!
Does anyone who has the 256GB version of this (or the normal, "non-Pro" Super Cube X variant for that matter) know how much of the 256GB is filled with the pre-installed games and how much space is left for copying own stuff?
Im not sure mate... maybe not much if its got loads of games on... i have 2tb of games and theres still loads more to get... depends whats on i suppose.
@@oldstylegaming Okay, so I hope the manual is any good and the process of putting your own stuff on the console is more or less hassle-free. I'm not an expert when it comes to emulation and ROMs and settings, that's why I opted for this thing, as I find it all a bit too complicated on my PC for my taste. But I find the lack of Sega CD and Dreamcast games disturbing, so I definitely will have to pimp my Super Console X Pro quite a bit! 😁
Getting one. Have a rasberry Pi 3 and was never able to get the Amiga emulator to play games. Hopefully this has Colecovision.
It doesn't
Great review
It looks nice.
That's not the way to play Double Dragon. Everybody knows you have to use the elbow move.

I have had the Super Console X pro 256g for a few months. Just make sure you back up the memory card,
Is the mem cards not good?
@@oldstylegaming Yes mine failed on me, but I had backed it up before hand. I got a new card and managed to get it all working again.
how long did it take to fail?
@@oldstylegaming About 6 weeks or so, I may have just have had a bad one. I backed it up because when watching reviews on it, it was recomended. At least I have all the games on my hard drive now, so I can play them on my PC as well.

How is the N64 emulation ?
Ill try it when i get home and let you know...its one of the systems i havent tried yet
@@oldstylegaming this is the deal breaker for me. I want to be able to play conker's bad fur day on N64 and crash bandicoot on PS1
Hi just tried the N64 emulation and its not great.
@@oldstylegaming
Many thanks for taking time to test it out OSG 👍👍
The *Beelink Super Console X King* is supposed to be handling N64 emulation much better.
Honestly i AM not a big fan of this modern retrô games consoles, only the ones That you can insert old carts from console and i afmit some portables are cool (altough i never liked portables because of the small disply).i prefer the Raspberry Pi. Harder to configure , but more customable. You can insert the games. But i have to agree that the price is cheap. I just hope that the gamepads have some durability
Yeah im saying they are good but really ive only had them a few days .... but as far as functionality goes on the couple of hours i played today it was spot on, one the batteries are in it feels no different to my PS3 one which is now coming up 15 year old and still going strong
Thinking about buying this just wondering are there WWF+WCW games on it and is SWOS on it ?
Swos is on what system are you on about for the wrestling games
@@oldstylegaming mainly the N64 wrestling games like No Mercy probably one of last good WWE games.
@@graemenicol6377 ive been twsting the N64 today and its not great ...its a system i never bother with tbh so never checked.

You like it? Its very compact and easy to break out, my son has been hammering it over the xmas holidays
@@oldstylegaming
Yeah. It’s like Netflix though. I go on to play something, but struggle choosing, there’s that much choice!
I bought Super Street Fighter 2 on American Import for about £100, when it was released. You’ve got 50,000 games on this, for less that that. It blows my mind how technology today makes that possible.
But yeah, it’s worth the £60 I paid for it. Even if 10% of the games worked properly, it’s still worth it.
Need a keyboard and mouse for Amiga/Atari ST games.
@@christschin3708 do you have keyboard and mouse?
@@oldstylegaming
No mate. Going to have to get one. Don’t own a PC or anything.
@@christschin3708 are you in the uk?
Any chance you'd open this up to see what hardware it's all running on?
I will soon, ill get another sd card too and try putty in to see exactly what it is mate
What version of the Pi could be inside though? 🤔 A Pi 3 on The Pi Hut comes in at £33 on its own. I doubt this is a Pi4. My Pi4 4GB cost £75 with a special case and the official plug. If it is a Pi, you don't even need to use that cheap controller. Plug in a 8bitdo Pro or Pro+ in there (it's my emulator controller of choice now).
I know that most of us that use emulators don't have legitimate ROM files (it's impossible to 'own' MAME roms lol!), but to blatantly sell a machine with thousands of illegal roms is typical of AliExpress I guess. 😂
This will take any controller mate that you throw at it, its only emulationstation at the end of the day,... i would think its a clone of a pi but maybe not a clone of Pi3 as the emulation seems too smooth on DreamCast but could be wrong ...its been ages since i had a Pi
I think this system is just custom chips. The pi is not as powerful as the Nvidia shield. I used to bring the Dreamcast down to play my favourite game soul calibur, but now just use the shield and I really can't tell any difference, to be honest the shield is clearer on a modern display.
Anyone that doesn't have either a pi or shield, the super console X cube is a no brainer after the great review.

Is there another controller you can use? these suck? no 'C' button for sega Genesis games!
i'd love one, but no (this is going to sound a bit stupid as it's so small) space for it, too many ststems in the house, 2 tv's both full
yeah i couldnt have anything else in my shed, this will stay indoors
you've sold another one here - you should be on some kind of commission mate ;-)
I have bought this but have found an immediate problem. I bought the 256Gb version and it gives you instructions on how to download the game ROMs (why they could not have those ROMs on the drive already is beyond me). However the link no longer works so I cannot at the moment download the games which makes the console useless. If they cannot fix the problem I will be asking for my money back as I will be left with a console I cannot actually use.
Ill email the bloke who sent me the console and ask him mate. If you can email me on pagman35@gmail.com ill get the reply back to you. Im sorry if my review has led to this, i only had the 64gb one and never tried gettinh anymore games. You would have thought that the games would have been on though...thats ridiculous

@@leonarddurecki5988 I think hes got a corrupt mem card or something, Ive put him in touch with the guy who sent me the unit and i think hes told him to get a refund
Just curious, got the missus to get me one of these as a recommendation from this channel (love it btw), but within 20mins of playing, pretty much every game is stuttering, and unplayable, regardless of whatever emulator I switch to. Just wondering what the workaround is, because otherwise, this is just a waste of money , really if it is a regular thing (and the wife is a bit upset, because she now thinks she got me a duffer of a gift). Am using stock 64GB one, but differs from the one in the video (is called Super Console X Pro), so wondering if there is anything I can do.
Many thanks, peeps!
I don't have one of these, but I'm surprised that you say it's the same on all systems. The NES and other 8 bit should be a piece of cake.
I would consider getting another SD card and copying the one you have on to it. As it may be an SD card issue not reading fast enough. Fingers crossed!
Many thanks, I was thinking this myself, as it seems weird it is for all. It runs fine for a while, and obviously obviously emulators work better than others, so I swapped them over. But I can play say, a MAME, game like Sunset Riders with no issues for 20mins, swap to a PS1 game for 20mins, stuttering begins, and massive slowdown and sound errors, and then I can swap back to a game I know was working excellently from the get go, on same emulator, and have the exact issue from launch. So was wondering if a hardware issue, but hoping just a crap SD card, otherwise was a waste of 100e (wife went through another website and got a more expensive one, silly woman lol). But thanks for reply!
@@chrismcconnell8248 sounds to me that it's possibly over heating! Modern processors throttle back when they get too hot. Heat sink may not be fitted to the processor correctly, ie need thermal paste, in any case improving cooling may cure your problem.
If it's the SD card when you start a new game it should be ok for a few seconds, perhaps a minute, but then the card may not be fast enough.
Good luck
@@1960ARC Just changed the SD card now to a Sandisk one, so if that doesn't work, I suspect overheating then also, but literally what option I will have then with all honesty, as I am not really skilled or confident enough to start taking the thing apart to make better cooling or such. Hope not, but shall see in a moment , I guess. Thank you anyways!
How does this compare to the Ali Express Arcade Box?
I couldnt say mate ive never had one
How to make things less pixelated in gameplay?
Depends on what system you are on, remember most of these will have been on crt so thats the problem, however most emulators now has options for filters that smooth things out... but i havent checked how to do it on here
Would the system boot up and play if I put the sd card in a raspberry pi 3b+ ?
