    With the dlc put them in a separate folder named dlc/updates that isn’t connected with your switch/rom folder and then you won’t have any problems with all the dlc showing up as invalid files

      My Max came on Tuesday, and it's such a grandious monster!!
      Performance is completely unbelievable.
      Hope your device will show up soon. Btw I was still waiting for the shipping info to update, when the package suddenly arrived at my door without being announced. 🤷 Did not complain though. 😁

    I got mine the other day. I have the black max. Easily plays some Switch games which is crazy. Only played it for a bit last night. Once you get it set up, good to go. I need a bit more tweaking to get stuff working the way I’d like but so far so good. Ayn has a winner.

    Interesting to see Smash Bros for the Switch, I've been going around watching videos were people show how some games work & they've all used the pro. One person showing their pro ver that showed some games didn't work or had issues(Luigi's Mansion 3 crashes, Smash Bros isn't playable, Kirby Return to Dreamland works but Forgotten Lands can't go past the main menu)
    I heard someone mention that the Odin 2 has switchable memory but I wouldn't know, I guess I just need to wait for when I can afford this cause I want to play some nice games on the go

    I don't hate my odin 1 pro but the mines have been having slow downs for even 3d ps1 games and is very uncomfortable for my hands. The analogs were tolerable at first back August 2022 but now is uncomfortable to use for ps2 and gamecube. Hopefully the odin 2 pro is a massive improvement. Wish the system had bluetooth wireless controller rumble support.

    Your handset is the MAX and has 16GB of ram, do you think that much RAM is really needed? Could you have got away with the 12 GB model for switch? Contemplating getting one but deciding between pro and max? Thanks

    • @GeorgeMcF
      @GeorgeMcF  Před 5 měsíci

      I don’t have it but I’m confident the pro is all you need for switch emulation. The max is pretty overkill and with the right settings, the pro should play many if not all switch games really well.

  • @JoebamaForJail
    @JoebamaForJail Před 6 měsíci

    • @GeorgeMcF
      @GeorgeMcF  Před 6 měsíci +1

      Depends on what you want to play but you should be fine with the pro model in most cases. Do you mean updates in terms of yuzu? Cause it gets updated nearly every day on their GitHub and as long as you have the latest firmware and keys it should be able to play most games, I got Mario wonder playing really well.

    I have the razor edge 5G which is a really underestimated handheld in my opinion. This thing can run everything! People complain about the screen but I think it's just ultra-picky people. (Which the world seems to be full of these days).
    I'm going to sell it when I get my Odin 2 pro. I'm not like other people though I can wait I'm too busy working all the time but it will be nice to have this to play on the weekends when I have spare time.

    Thanks for showing you playing Yoshi Story 64. One of the most difficult n64 games to emulate since it requires a special chip in the N64 even my NEW 3DS, wii and PC Couldnt emulate it properly.
