@@RetroGameCorps I just brought a rg351p Is all this still applicable today ? Does it run the n64 games straight out of the box without upgrading operating systems etc
Retro Game Corps has become the unofficial ambassador for this system almost. The amount of content and guides you've given us for the RG350 and RG351 systems are unbelievable, ty so much man. Doing so much for the emulator community, it's actually insane. Keep it up!
I just want to thank you for your tutorial videos, got my RG351P last week and its now fully loaded, running arkOS with retroarch configured correctly and everything is running perfectly! Really detailed but simple to follow guides, thanks 😊
Just picked up a RG351P and I was thrilled with it. I watched your review and it was easy to see it was a good purchase. I followed this video and set it up just as you suggested and I'm even more happy with this device. Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together, in such a concise way that even I could follow it.
Just ordered a RG351M and am very excited to try this out! Also, it's thanks to your videos that I went with the Anbernic in the first place. Your review was a stellar recommendation!
I just want to thank you for the awesome videos you put out on CZcams on Retro Gaming. I just started playing with the RG351M an followed along with setting up 351elec and wow what a difference.
I haven't tried these emu handhelds like this one because I'm just starting on the PSVITA being modded thanks to you. Made me think of getting 1 to try out, hope I won't regret it.
Been eyeing the anbernic devices for months now and I just found this channel this week, you sold me on the RG351P with the ArkOS firmware, kudos for the amazing content, I love these videos.
2nd January 2022 and just flashed my RG351P and wow it is long flash but I deserve it and a big thank you to Retro Game Corps. It is still flashing easyroms all done now YEEESSSS
Your tutorials got me to finally drop money on the 351m. It comes in a few days and I already have a ton of roms ready as well as ArkOS. Can't wait to try it out.
Just got my RG351P (somewhat late to the party since i already own an RG350 and was struggling with the decision which RK3326 device to pick up - build quality made me stay with Anbernic)! Enjoying your videos over the past months, they help a lot!
These guides are extremely helpful, thank you. Any chance you might ever do a retroarch setup guide? I recently got a retropie and retroarch baffles me.
Thank you so much for your in-depth guides! They make common sense, they're clear and easy to follow, and I can't believe I have SMRPG running at a full clip--I figured that was just off-limits and I could not be happier right now
Based on all your videos about the 351P I just purchased one and it will be here in two days. It was also a recommendation from a few people on your discord server. Thank you for all the hard work that you’ve done. I’ve been trying to get emulation working on my iPhone. But as we know that is not as easy as a dedicated device. Thanks again.
Very informative video guide.. Big thanks... I been installed elec351 with last update and I got several crushed and wifi problem and slow games boot.. Now I installed arkos and it's amazingly perfect 👌 especially with ur tips
Having Problems with it, using the Stock SD card as of right now, and because there are multiple Partitions, i dont know which one to choose. Edit: i fixed it, had to wipe out all the Partitions via command prompt, now it works like a charm. Thanks for the great guide, the effort you put into this is just amazing. Thank you.
Thanks for the great guide! I just wanted to let you know that the sonic ports look great on the RG351P, but some of the special stages have a lot of slowdown.
@@VuNguyen-sx4lt That's a old video though, today they aren't that different anymore. I think ArkOS still has faster load times, but considering that 351elec continues to be updated the differences will start to show and it would be nice to have a video about the differences currently between the two to help figuring out what OS to install.
@@pon1 Following that logic, I think it would be best to wait towards the end of 2021 to make a new comparison video to give time for 351elec to flourish.
@@v101damnations Yeah, I do agree with that, or at least until 351elec has comparable loading times. Maybe a loading time comparison so that we know what the actual difference is? That might give a lot of incentive to work on getting them shorter. I don't actually mind the loading times of the games that much, but the loading time when the system is off until we get to the main menu is really long on 351elec and from what I understand ArkOS has much shorter loading time in that regard.
Best Shader for every Core is for me with this Settings: Shaders / crt / glsl / zfast - crt.glsp Blur Amount X-Axis 0.00 Scanline Darkness - Low 0.00 Scanline Darkness - High 0.00 Dark pixel Brightness Boost: 1.00 Mask Effect Amount: 0.50 Mask/Scanline Fade: 0.80 My thanks for all Tricks on the RG351
So thankful for your videos. I was bummed out because I always thought snes colors looked washed out..and it bugged me so much i couldn’t play some of my favorite games on this device so I ordered an S30 🤣 . After watching this and trying to snes9x 2010 core with the nx shader, it was game changer. I’m returning the other device 😭
I'm really glad there is a link we can use to send some money their way :D I sent what I could because it's awesome we are able to use this completely for free on our devices and they're working on updating it on the RG351V, mine is in transit as I type this, and I cannot wait to use ArkOS on it and start playing the games that have defined my childhood! Finally getting to play Chrono Trigger and Super Mario RPG once again and games like Minish Cap and Links Awakening! I cannot wait I need it! Then hopefully whenever we get that powkiddy device that's gonna be good for wii and gamecube I'll be set!
Can't wait to get my device :D Super excited and I will for sure be following this guide :P I need to investigate what AmberPorts is though, I saw Half Life in the ports menu.... which would be awesome to play on such a tiny handheld!
Man these videos have been superb! I'm sad the rg351p/m firmwares are mostly ending future support. Do you think you will do a final comparison video for the available firmwares with the features that have been added up to now for the rg351p/m lines? I need more Venn diagrams in my life.
Great video as always! Has anyone encountered an issue where they can't hit "A" to reboot during the ArkOS initial load? I've checked and all of my buttons on the RG351P works :(
Is anyone else having issues updating cores within RetroArch? I keep getting the message "Failed to retrieve core list". I'm able to update other assets in RetroArch. I'm using the latest version of ArkOS. Thank you for all the hard work you put into these videos.
Just invested in a couple of spare SD cards so now going to put 351ELEC on one, ArkOS on another and keep one with Stock OS on. 😊 Literally only just finished installing ArkOS so need to set it up and install roms/bios etc. Without your guidance this would be almost impossible to fathom out. ❤ The SD card slot on my pc does not work so I've had to put micro SD into normal size adaptor then that into a usb adaptor to write everything. Sometimes Win10 wont see that creation so I have to keep plugging it in and out until it works lol. Oh and also I had to download and install ArkOS twice as downloaded the wrong version first time. 🤣 A couple of hours later roms and bios transferred, copied ports from one SD to my PC then remove SD and replace with other (containing ArkOS) now transferring ports to it and Then to restart my RG351 and delve into settings. That's been my Halloween lol.
Your videos are great, but I’m really a newbie and need a simple guide to how to switch games, how to save to favorites, etc. Does anyone know where I could get such help? Thanks.
It is what it is... I don't hide my feelings on the Anbernic handhelds (I own quite a few as well as many others), with that said... Anbernic makes a clean well put together emulation device, they really nailed the design and quality. I just can't get over how they are so damn underpowered with so much thought put into the build quality. Aside from the typical retro systems you get EXTREMELY hit or miss emulation for the systems we really want to play and that is a deal breaker for me personally. I'm sure you spoke with the developer and their claims are true, but I can't help but wonder if the vanilla retro emulation capabilities of all Anbernic handhelds is playing a part in their choice to cease their OS development. Does anyone else get let down when specs on a new Anbernic handheld get released? I know I do... every... single... time... and then the ridiculous decision to scrap wifi on the 351?!? I went ahead and hard modded a cheap 2.4ghz module in my 351p, but why such a huge decision to just remove wifi all together? It has been proven a speaker wire relocation or a cheap wire insulation/shielding option could have remedied the entire sound/wifi situation. Rant over... I hope Anbernic has some horsepower in their future or the 351 will be my last purchase from them.
Awesome video, quick question. Where does ARKOS save in game saves for GBA for games that automatically save progress? I am looking to extract a gamesave from a cartridge I own and wanted to load it into the emulator so I can resume my gamesave but I cant find where ARKOS keeps that data. The specific title I am playing is the Yu-Gi-Oh worldwide edition game. Thanks for your help
Having no luck at all with wifi on my 351p. I have the correct adapters/dongles, tried setting it up while not charging as well as charging, made sure I used the 2.4ghz network...nothing. The adapters clearly work because I can see my network in the list, but there is no network setting in the options menu (it looks like the menu in the video after it's updated to the final version. The wifi options are present in emulationstation (that's how I'm able to see my network), but nothing seems to work. Maybe I'd have better luck with 351elec?
Updated, but still can't get PSP to work properly. My favorite game of all time, Tactics Ogre Let Us Cling Together, lags bad. I think the Android route is just better overall.
Could you do me a favor and tell me how Metal Gear Solid 1, MGS Portable Ops and MGS Peace Walker do on the RG351 series and similar handhelds ? Ive been looking for a handheld than can play these 3 and not be a PS Vita. Thank you very much in advance
Hi dude, loving the content!!! Just managed to get the ark os running on my 351p. Was wondering is there any way of getting a full screen coverage when gaming I notice 2 skinny bezels on the sides . Like how it's set up on the original sd card I think 3:2...? Which looks perfect... Was hoping you can help Its cool, I've maged to sort it.. I carried on watching the video 🤣🤣🤣.. Retroarch settings 👍🏽👌🏽
the written guide by the ark os guy says: "DO NOT USE BALENA ETCHER WITH THIS IMAGE. There has been reports of various strange issues and inconsistent performance using Etcher for this image."
I stumble in your channel a couple of moths ago and your videos are fantastic. Thanks to them, I recently bough my first retro game console and is a RG3521M. Went trough this video and i found it very easy to follow and in detail with settings. My device works great. Just one thing i found is, I have some games that wont load, for example, I have the Garou Mark of the Wolves for Neo Geo Emulator, this one wont load and i tried the two retroarch emulators available but neither will work. Is this because the rom file is bad or, is it because im missing some emulator files or I need another emulator loaded? Thanks!
Hey man! Thanks for another awesome video. Is the same release also useable for the 351v? Mine is coming in tomorrow so curious to know if I need to change OS and which one would you suggest?
ArkOS has its own distinct build for the RG351V, it's still in testing phase but it is very stable. Here's a link to it in this guide: retrogamecorps.com/2021/04/15/rg351v-custom-firmware-guide-351elec-arkos-thera/ Of the available firmwares, I would recommend ArkOS for the RG351V.
The sd cards that are shipped with these are of poor quality and often fail, I recommend the first thing new owners do is backup the card onto a quality one.
Hey Russ. Quick question, I've been using arkos for a while now with zero issues up until now. Now suddenly when I boot it up it defaults to 1% system volume and I have to go to the settings and change it to 100% to use the volume wheel properly. Does your sage wisdom have a fix for this? Am on final release btw.
Brilliant videos. I cant seem to get this to work all the way to replacing the card with arkos on it. Followed your guide to the letter, im new to this so am i missing something?. I have the rg351m.
Used this video to set up my 351m that arrived today, already loving this device. Thank you for putting the perfect video out for this! I just have one question: are there menus for the other emulator options? I'm using the standalone rice emulator for 64, but I don't know if it has a menu like retroarch. If there is a menu, how do I open it?
Hi, great timing! Unfortunately some emulators (like the standalone N64 emulator, and the RetroRun Dreamcast emulator) don't have menus. It's just the way those were built.
23:46 waiit wait wait, am2r???? is it there still? my first handheld was the retromini and im getting the rg351p, dont know if im going to add ccustom firmware
Just spent the afternoon installing this and adding games etc before realising there's no & key on the keyboard when entering the WiFi password. Does anyone know if there is a workaround for this? Otherwise ill need to switch to 351ELEC
Question: is there a way to create specific subfolders to organize games? For example, inside snes folder, can I create a “shmups” folder? Or some similar method?
I think plenty of others like it, but I often get questions about how to bring XMB up, or comments that "RetroArch looks wrong" on ArkOS. So that part was for them :)
ArkOS still recommended for 351p now? Or is amberelec the recommended one onwards? And does batocera works properly for these handhelds, other than inability to play ports?
Hey, just wondering, what's the game at 1:42, with the soldier dropping from the helicopter? It unlocked some childhood memories, but I can't for the life of me remember the name of that game. Later edit: found it, it's Super C!

Guys, set "Auto-Shader Delay" to 0 if your shader settings not applying at game start after all. Took me a couple of hours to find out.

Yep, I mention it in the first couple minutes of this video. RG351V development will continue indefinitely.
@@RetroGameCorps i can't find the 351V version on ArkOS site :(
retro solid video. do you reckon you could put arkos on aphone or steam deck?
Hey man! Thanks for another awesome video. Is the same release also useable for the 351v? Mine is coming in tomorrow so curious to know if I need to change OS and which one would you suggest?
ArkOS has its own distinct build for the RG351V, it's still in testing phase but it is very stable. Here's a link to it in this guide: retrogamecorps.com/2021/04/15/rg351v-custom-firmware-guide-351elec-arkos-thera/
Of the available firmwares, I would recommend ArkOS for the RG351V.
@@RetroGameCorps Thanks for the quick reply. Keep up the good work!
Too bad not more dev to arkos and 351elec to rg351p/m... Ty m8, nice vídeos.
The sd cards that are shipped with these are of poor quality and often fail, I recommend the first thing new owners do is backup the card onto a quality one.
Hey Russ. Quick question, I've been using arkos for a while now with zero issues up until now. Now suddenly when I boot it up it defaults to 1% system volume and I have to go to the settings and change it to 100% to use the volume wheel properly. Does your sage wisdom have a fix for this? Am on final release btw.
Brilliant videos. I cant seem to get this to work all the way to replacing the card with arkos on it. Followed your guide to the letter, im new to this so am i missing something?. I have the rg351m.
I was considering getting the 351 until I saw those other awesome devices at the beginning… now I’m conflicted.
Used this video to set up my 351m that arrived today, already loving this device. Thank you for putting the perfect video out for this!
I just have one question: are there menus for the other emulator options? I'm using the standalone rice emulator for 64, but I don't know if it has a menu like retroarch. If there is a menu, how do I open it?
Hi, great timing! Unfortunately some emulators (like the standalone N64 emulator, and the RetroRun Dreamcast emulator) don't have menus. It's just the way those were built.
23:46 waiit wait wait, am2r???? is it there still?
my first handheld was the retromini and im getting the rg351p, dont know if im going to add ccustom firmware
Thanks for the video, really helps. I just don’t manage to change the background. I saved a JPG in 24bits in 640x480 (RG351V)… any advise ? Thanks.
I just bought one so of course lol
Nice
Just spent the afternoon installing this and adding games etc before realising there's no & key on the keyboard when entering the WiFi password. Does anyone know if there is a workaround for this? Otherwise ill need to switch to 351ELEC
Question: is there a way to create specific subfolders to organize games? For example, inside snes folder, can I create a “shmups” folder? Or some similar method?
Hi ! Great videos ! Helped a ton.
Do you know by any chance how to save state while using a N64 standalone emulator ?
Cheers !
am i the only one who prefers rgui over xmb?
I think plenty of others like it, but I often get questions about how to bring XMB up, or comments that "RetroArch looks wrong" on ArkOS. So that part was for them :)
@@RetroGameCorps Fair enough! I really like your content man, keep up the good work!
ArkOS still recommended for 351p now? Or is amberelec the recommended one onwards?
And does batocera works properly for these handhelds, other than inability to play ports?
Hey, just wondering, what's the game at 1:42, with the soldier dropping from the helicopter? It unlocked some childhood memories, but I can't for the life of me remember the name of that game.
Later edit: found it, it's Super C!
