I wasn't entirely sure about the RG556 before receiving it for review from Anbernic. But after having it in my hands for a couple of weeks, I do admit - it is quite incredible for the price range. It's beautiful, comfortable, and it can handle a wide selection of game consoles for emulation.

Progress on the upcoming Sugar Cubes handheld called the "Small Universe". Exclusive video shared with Nara Makes Games. I have been working directly with Sugar Cubes to help improve the device. So far, it is looking very nice. Anticipated specs: 3.9 inch (1240×1080) rotating OLED display, powerful Snapdragon 888 CPU, and full metal shell.

I would prefer you do not watch this video before playing The Mayor of Sanctuary. But a lot of people have expressed concern that they have not seen clear game play footage. So here it is! I hope this answers some questions about what TMOS actually is. @incube8games @josephtomkinsmusic

Giant Box from Japan! Unboxing a bunch of retro game stuffs
I havent got to test this myself. Maybe it's useful for someone out there. But it looks like the player moves faster in the diagonal. That's because if you think of the steps of a player like a checkerboard. The diagonal of the cube is longer than the horizontal. If you adjust the speed of the players movement it should look a little more consistent
Will it scratch the switch oled screen?
What's the game at 1:16?
Sanrio smash ball
Great video! I just ordered mine yesterday, I am very excited. I subscribed! Also you are severely underrated. I don’t know how you can make this high quality of a video and not have a big fan base.
They really do need to start naming their devices catchy things lol
Yeah @techdweeb talks about this in his review (in a funny way). But come on.. just call it the "SP". We dont need all the extra.
Love your video style man, subbed.
What games is playing at 1:56
sanrio smash ball snes
I ordered one today ! Looks likes it’s gonna be awesome
I am really interested, I have been thinking about building a similar device myseof, but I don't find the right screen for it. Could you please tell us the screen size and resolution? Any price or estimated release date?
How about the Jelly Star Controller case? Is there any new news for that?
Finished products will be shipped in August
Wtf? Where is the concept?!
Thanks for your reviews Anthony. Always excited to see a new one drop. What Gameboy did you play most growing up?
I had the Game Boy Color growing up. And then GBA in high school. I was mostly a console kid though.
I don't understand why it rotates...
I think it rolates for ds style and gb style
It rotates so that you take full advantage of the screen area in both Tate (3:4 or vertical) and Yoko (4:3 or horizontal) games. So almost no black lines any of these tow type of games.
@jacksparrow4111 I see it now, it's just not very noticeable in the video.
I don't see the option to edit my comment. It doesn't look 4:3. Is It the LG Wing bottom screen?
Screen should have been bigger & !6:9. At the moment the difference is not big.
really cool
why a rotating 4:3 display? you'd get similar results and less complexity in the build if you just went with a fixed 1:1 screen. if it was a rotating 16:9 then it would be more understandable to be rotating it
I don't know if the feature is as useful as they believe. But it's clearly their gimmick that they are hoping will generate interest. It's got me curious, but not totally convinced yet.
Vertical Arcade games are 3:4, so it makes sense to rotate a 4:3 screen. What use would be a 16:9 rotated ? What use is aspect ratio 9 : 16 ? None.
@@DKTronics70Ds?
@@DKTronics70 pinball games? but also I didn't actually realise that about the vertical games. Makes sense the more I think about it now though. But I think my point on a 1:1 screen of a decent size would be a better more versatile option than it rotating still stands.
加油,很有创意
SD888 processor. Guess it'll be over $300 . A lot for such a niche device. Shame it's not a 4:3 display and a landscape format, stacked analogue triggers etc.
Is it really a niche product if there are hundred other devices just like it? Retro handheld emulators are pretty much mainstream in 2024...
@@Mindartcreativityno other rotating one i heard of
Personalized customized products with relatively high prices
It's real! Nice!
Eyy this gon' be gooood
Awesome. I can't wait for all of your new developments. This podcast also gave a much needed spark back to my game dev as I've been waning quite a bit recently, a lot of paralysis by analysis. Great and honest content as always ✌️
hey dude! so glad to hear you catching a new stride. Looking forward to the growth and I know your next project is going to rock!
Love the progress, love what’s coming. Love the animals!
Looking forward to it!
Excited to see the story for this game 👍
Eyy hell yeah
Bring it!!
How do you support yourself as a digital nomad? I'm interested in this lifestyle a lot. Also, take your time and heal, looking forward to your next work <3
I work as a web and graphic designer. I was able to stop for a few years because I was a professional reviewer. But that work ended in January. So back to the old grind again.
the rg535m?
Just finished the game. Will certainly await a sequel!
These videos are actually somewhat inspiring. I've always wanted to create a video game too, but my background isn't remotely related in tech, so the idea of learning everything from scratch on my own is too daunting. Instead, I'll try to support you to live this dream of mine.
Hi there, is there a way to support you directly and simultaneously getting a physical copy of the game? Heard you had trouble with Incube8
I'm late on it, but just purchased one. Great review, cannot wait!
Gonna be pricey as it seems like it's milled out from blocks of aluminum...
Just perchased one physical eddition, showing love here
Should have a look at using the ES-DE front end on here, the OLED screen would really pop using a more console style front end if then set as your home app launcher.
The game was amazing and was such a good time to play! I’m a fan and still sending you some fan art like I had mentioned. Hope your day was quiet and peaceful.
i feel you man.i also went the same mindset of not wanting to continue gamdev when all i see around me are awesome games, like how can i ever compete? but i think its part of the gamedev journey, and it certainly will be a core teaching moment as u move forward. I know what happened and im sorry that it did happen, i hope u continue to make interesting stuff going forward coz u make awesome gb studio stuff man.
Oh man... that is what I felt when Eastward came out. Like.. how can I even compete with that. But then I reminded myself that I'm doing my own thing and we don't need to compare ourselves too much to what else is out there. And thank you for the support and motivation to keep going.
You should probably do your research before releasing content
How does Immortal play on it?
Would love to see you do a Odin 2 review
I'd love to do one. Just can't afford one. Haha
You watch this sh!t will cost just as much as a Switch or Steam Deck and have no Game's
I want this so bad, i dont know why 😂
Great device without all these problems the RP4 Pro was & is shipping with.
That mic is so high quality that I can hear the saliva in your mouth when you talk, damn!
It's literally my phone. And yes, you don't have to point it out to make me self conscious about it! Haha. I always feel like my tongue is in the way when I try to record my audio.
@@NaraMakesGames my bad! I didn't mean it offensively, I just thought you had a killer microphone, you video qualities are always amazing and the shots are top class
@MysticGohan01 I'm not mad. I think it's funny you pointed out one of my insecurities with my videos. But yes, my phone does surprising quality audio (with some minor editing as well). If it's just voiceover stuff, not on camera speaking... works just fine.
0:31 Nara: A mark against the Rg556 is that it's not a gameboy what?
The gain is too high on your mic, vocals sound too crunchy
