Fucking great, honestly. I've beenon my vita since i bought it in '19 and it's played essentially everything I've thrown at it within reason. Up to PSX easy.

Not what they were asking for, I assume.
valkyries Vita3k has gotten better over the years and you can actually finish a bunch of games on it, but 3D stuff has still lots of issues AFAIK.
Eh, i have this on Wii afaik (also Vanillaware games are dogshit gameplay-wise
)
Is V3K still weird to setup? I remember trying it like a year ago and boy was is trying things.
From what I know, the Wii version is sub-par.Eh, i have this on Wii afaik (also Vanillaware games are dogshit gameplay-wise
im thinking about getting the Anbernic RG35xx plus and it will be mostly used for retro RPGs, but I was thinking that PS1 has so many good ones but the RG35xx doesn't have analogue sticks so I wonder how many of those RPGs actually need those? If I remember correctly many of PS1 games could be played with just d pad.
Probably 0 RPGs need it. Ape Escape might be the only game that requires it. Though others were heavily enhanced by it (ie, MGS, but mostly for the rumble).
But going for a handheld with at least one analog could enable N64, Dreamcast or PSP emulation (shouldn't need much higher specs, not as high as PS2)
The RG35XX H has the same specs/price as the Plus and has 2 sticks. These specs seem to handle N64/Dreamcast/DS but struggle with heavier PSP games.
Edit: Retroid Pocket 2S seems to perform better on PSP and also Sega Saturn (still not perfect, but Dreamcast is) but costs a little more than these other ones...

Well they have the RG405V for that form factor with sticks on top but I didn't research how it compares in performance and compatibility as it costs like double.
I was looking for such footage and found a completely unrelated video...
Which apparently has 500k people out there (+ whoever took that info and spread it in other forms) using their Wii all wrong on the false premise it looks better. Apparently this guy has never heard of anamorphic (widescreen) rendering for any device but Wii so recommends folks run their games in 16:9 but remove the image stretching that matches said 16:9 aspect ratio so that they look crisper as in the 4:3 framebuffer (and so everything gets squished to the wrong aspect ratio as the fov no longer matches that). WTF?! Just run your Wii in 4:3 mode if you don't want stretching with the correct aspect ratio rendering/fov (granted some specific games will letterbox 16:9 as they only support that, but then you can choose 16:9 for those alone). How can such bad advice get such traction, barely anyone is calling them out in the comments. Maybe there are Wii games out there that do have the wrong, stretched aspect ratio by default so plain framebuffer is better but probably nothing notable or worthwhile unless it's some shoddy port of an older good game from other systems or something.
