I have one and I love it so much. I got it on sale with a coupon too so it was like $35 but DEFINITELY worth the $60-70 it usually goes for. It’s great quality and so far all of the games I’ve tried work great. It has a MASSIVE selection, every childhood game I loved, and so many more classics.
I have the ANBERNIC RG351MP. It came with a micro sd card fully loaded with 15,000 games. Ps1,gameboy,NES,SNES,N64,ECT. Ive had mine for 2 years and still love it.

Anbernic makes a lot of really good retro devices. They're just starting to get popular and people with a big following show them off. But if you're looking into any of them, I'd get the RG353. It's the first one I've gotten that can handle N64 games really well.
@@TheWolffriendlyNot all, but it has a lot. Mostly it seems liked they left out most mario titles likely to avoid lawsuits. But you can buy another microSD card, and a card reader, and add your own games to it. I will say it came with plenty of games. It had most all snes, nes, bg, bgc, gba, and so on. The ps1 list of games was lacking a lot, with roughly only 30 titles, but again, you can add your own games relatively easily.

the PowKiddy reminds me of the (sadly) discontinued G-Boy… Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get one at the time, so I’m hoping some day soon I’ll be able to emulate Wii games in a GameBoy-like form factor
I know your comment is a bit old, and while Wii emulation isn't possible in this Gameboy Color form factor... The Ayn Odin Pro (Probably the Lite as well) is a Switch Lite form factor that's capable of reasonably smooth Wii performance. This is currently the smallest device capable of it that I'm aware of.
My wife got me one for Christmas and I love it. Sadly DBZ Legend of Goku II glitches out at a certain point, but every other game I’ve played has ran great.
I got into retro gaming in the past year thankfully my uncle had some of his old handhelds like a gameboy colour and advance and I’ve put so many hours into all the games
Wonder if there are such devices in more of a GBA form factor? The GB is fun and nostalgic but GBA is so much more comfortable... Probably the most comfortable of all portables, and I've tried them all (except the Sony ones).
@@alfredtorres1252skill issue. What you described is easily fixable if you would have bothered to google it. Save states vary depending on what console you’re trying to emulate 🤦♂️
I have one of these and it’s easily one of my favourite purchases. I’ve added a few more ps1 games and they play flawlessly. Playing Tony Hawk Pro Skater, FIFA 99 and WWF Smackdown 2 on a device I can fit in my pocket is mind blowing. You can even plug in a mini HDMI to HDMI so you can play it on your TV. These retro consoles have come a long way over the past few years. You get incredible value for money Even the stock OS isn’t bad. I don’t want to mess about with Garlic OS (too much effort for me.😂) but the stock interface is easy to use. This is probably the best value handheld on the market right now (The Miyoo Mini+ is a close contender).
Playing Final Fantasy VII for ps1 currently. Works perfect on these handhelds. Love the save state function to just save whenever. The screens are amazing on anbernics. Good battery life. 5/5. Makes games that don’t have the best graphics look better than on a huge tv in my opinion.
See they gotta stick a covid test into the usb port just to be safe. Then they run a back ground check on the seller to make sure they haven't misgendered anyone in the last 5 years.

@@killzone866 exactly. I don't like ordering stuff online as it is and having to wait that long is just a no go for me. That's why I prefer Amazon they usually at least for me ship stuff to me within just a few days.
Warning for people that have bigger hands! The 3.5" displays are usually devices that are really small. If you are like me, your hands will cramp up really, really bad after playing those small devices for even a short time. My advice? Look for something with a 5" screen or bigger. These are always bigger devices and easier to hold. I ordered the Retroid Pocket 3+. It more expensive, more powerful (can play over 50% of PS2 games) and jas a learning curve for sure. Be careful when buying these. Do lots of homework or you will be disappointed.
dont fall by people saying "the emulation quality is fantastic" claims people say that to every things that comes out. since those machines started coming out. but they dont really care or test, they just do wild claims with no care like, for something simple like sharp billinear filtering, which wont give you a blurred out screen or a screen full of artifacts, you need something on the level of a rg351. i menaged to ghetto sharp bilinear on a 350 but it only ran on things below megadrive
I went with the Miyoo Mini Plus last July and love it. Still running the stock os and card it came with with little to no issues. Going to upgrade it to onion soon and add more games And some DS titles as well. Awesome handheld
@@akuma2918 I have done both because I own an RG35xx. the RG35xx is easier to set up, and the play experience on your phone isn't as good as with physical buttons.
Does this not open potential lawsuits to this thing? distributing roms from NES to PS1 is the dumbest idea. Hell if you think Nintendo would have a field day wait till Sony and Sega get involved
most of these handhelds come from china where the copyright laws might as well not exist. While them being shipped to other countries is still shady nobody has batted an eye at them yet.
I was always wondering why these things are not illegal as im not sure about the emulation but the roms are outright piracy. Not that i care about these old games, its also allowed to do if you own a copy or something? Not that any company would get money from me when i buy a used 100€ copy of a rare ps1 game.
Meanwhile, I'm perfectly happy with my miyoo mini + onionOS. I've yet to run into a romhack it couldn't handle (did have to switch cores for a few of them, but the included ones were capable of handling it) and it has handled my ps1 collection just fine (admittedly, that's primarily been symphony of the night, but I've got a few others on there and it hasn't struggled with them).
Same. I'm mostly gonna be using it for Pokémon ROM hacks anyway, which isn't a huge deal for it. Still trying to figure out how to get PS1 games to work properly tho, no clue what BIOS is needed for them to not freeze up upon reloading them after the first time. :P (Same with it just not recognizing some games and merging multi-disc games)
@@Cuprite1024 The issues you are describing there are typically related to bin/cue issues (or maybe virtual mem card problems, given you are talking about crashing on later launches), you might want to look up what is needed for retroarch (this assuming you are using onion instead of whatever the miyoomini uses as stock) to interact with those properly, as well as make sure you have the correct bios for PS1 games. You will also need to make sure to avoid games that require a 'dualshock' style controller, as well. Most the truly pocketable devices do make significant sacrifices with regards to 64bit era consoles, not just in horsepower, but in controls. FTR. I went and checked, My Miyoo Mini currently has Final Fantasy Tactics, SoTN, and Rampage World Tour on it. I've got some other games I COULD stick on it, but those are the only three I could see myself playing 'on the go' without major issues. As a whole I have a purposefully limited selection on it, relative to my proper 'custom console' I put together.
The two advantages I know of this has over the mini is it's a tad bigger, and it's not as hard to acquire. But yeah the mini is going to be more portable
because anyone can sell anything on amazon and these consoles are made and sold from countries where piracy laws dont exist. and things like this have existed for decades and nobody not even nintendo has really tried to stop it. because to stop it youd have to get through the chinese government more times than not. which is just more trouble than its worth
Most of these devices are coming from China where copyright laws are nonexistent so they'll keep getting produced with all of the roms included. Whether they continue to ship to different countries is another issue but I doubt anybody cares enough to ban these things yet

I've yet to run into a romhack it couldn't handle (did have to switch cores for a few of them, but the included ones were capable of handling it) and it has handled my ps1 collection just fine (admittedly, that's primarily been symphony of the night, but I've got a few others on there and it hasn't struggled with them).
Same. I'm mostly gonna be using it for Pokémon ROM hacks anyway, which isn't a huge deal for it. Still trying to figure out how to get PS1 games to work properly tho, no clue what BIOS is needed for them to not freeze up upon reloading them after the first time. :P
(Same with it just not recognizing some games and merging multi-disc games)
@@Cuprite1024 The issues you are describing there are typically related to bin/cue issues (or maybe virtual mem card problems, given you are talking about crashing on later launches), you might want to look up what is needed for retroarch (this assuming you are using onion instead of whatever the miyoomini uses as stock) to interact with those properly, as well as make sure you have the correct bios for PS1 games. You will also need to make sure to avoid games that require a 'dualshock' style controller, as well. Most the truly pocketable devices do make significant sacrifices with regards to 64bit era consoles, not just in horsepower, but in controls.
FTR. I went and checked, My Miyoo Mini currently has Final Fantasy Tactics, SoTN, and Rampage World Tour on it. I've got some other games I COULD stick on it, but those are the only three I could see myself playing 'on the go' without major issues. As a whole I have a purposefully limited selection on it, relative to my proper 'custom console' I put together.
The two advantages I know of this has over the mini is it's a tad bigger, and it's not as hard to acquire. But yeah the mini is going to be more portable
Giving off moist critical vibes without the cringe. Keep up the work peace and love the content
I used the anbernic rg 353v and 405m and they are amazing
How can Amazon sell a product like this when it goes against so many copyright laws
Well they were also selling power cords with 2 male ends last year. Pretty sure they just don't care.
Thats why I JUMPED on buying it
because anyone can sell anything on amazon and these consoles are made and sold from countries where piracy laws dont exist. and things like this have existed for decades and nobody not even nintendo has really tried to stop it. because to stop it youd have to get through the chinese government more times than not. which is just more trouble than its worth
4 words. It comes from China.
Might wanna mention that people need to get their own ROMs and put them on the device. They can't sell them with ROMs because that's illegal.
Most of these devices are coming from China where copyright laws are nonexistent so they'll keep getting produced with all of the roms included. Whether they continue to ship to different countries is another issue but I doubt anybody cares enough to ban these things yet
Mine came with literally 1000s of games and many of them brand name main stream retro games
Yeah I was wondering how they can sell them with copyrighted game preloaded.
China don't give a crap.... They come with thousands of roms pre loaded
They can and they do though. You are very wrong sir.
I have the rg551v. Absolutely love that thing
THAT'S INCREDIBLE
I don't think having preinstalled commercial ROMs is legal.
It’s not
Is this even legal bruh?
It's not lol
I mean you can buy it. It may not be legal to sell it though. Your not gonna get raided or some shit bro trust me. 😂
YES. getting it right now
Got my brother this, he loves it.
The problem is that there’s so many of these it’s hard to know who to trust
you seen this thing blow up on tik-tok? yeah no, you seen that line passed down to you by console promo team
“I’ve seen these things blow up on tictok” I thought he was being literal about it. I was scared lmao.
