I love the button placement and the Hall effect sticks. But the T610+Mali G52 being under clocked probably resulting in it being 30% slower is disappointing. The price is fantastic, however.
My RP2+ is…dying. 😭 Paint is dinged and chipped, sticks drift, and the R1 button just…stopped working. I’m not dying to upgrade to a 3+, so this is right up my alley. Better analog stick placement, and hull sensor analog sticks fix my two main complaints I had with the 2+.
That’s what I’m holding out for too. Once they can reliably emulate 99% of the GC catalog I’m in. I’m saving up so I may be at the steam deck price before that happens. Lol.
To be honest I am extremely happy with my N3DS and Steam Deck. The second can let me change between a 40 years old game in a game released last month in a few seconds.
Personally I prefer using my smartphone that has all the power (and memory) needed for emulation in combination with a controller like the Gamesir X2 Pro
love my RG353M, can’t really see how the form factor for a pocketable horizontal device could be improved beyond it, besides a more powerful chip of course.
I tend to play on my AYN Odin Pro, but I also like my RG351V for certain games and my ROG Ally has VRR, which is neat for getting the weird refresh rates to match old consoles.

I’m still using the ol’ GDP XD (the first version)

I use the Retroid Pocket 3, but I really just want something in the same form factor that can reliably emulate GameCube.

I’m happy with my RP3+. Surprisingly, I mostly use it to stream PC & PS5 games.
But the retro games are all there when I decide to quit playing Yakuza Kiwami…
I like being able to do both those things too. Stream when possible. Local otherwise

Maybe the RG405M? I’m super keen on that one

Odin is so amazing. It’s still a great purchase now. I have the Lite

I love my RG35XX. I’ll stick with this until we have handhelds that can play the full (or at least most) PS2/Gamecube libraries.
My Steamdeck is my preferred method of handheld gaming. Works amazingly.
Yeah, I don’t have a spare $300-500 on me.
Great device but a bit big for my pocket :)
Hacked Wii U gang checking in!
There are dozens of us! Ripped all my GC discs on my Wii and installed them on my Wii U. Such an incredible homebrew scene.
My Android phone and the pizza boy application.
