I don't really care about Linux. I've been setting up emulators on Symbian phones back then. It was far more complicated and less stream lined than android. Some people are just being too spoiled and whiney. I tend to avoid ambernic since they offer roms that I'm not sure is legal. So it's a must for me for everyone to know how manage their own game library.
Neat balanced review. The GarlicOS stuff is interesting. Maybe it’ll come to other T618 devices. Double Dash is a pain - it’s the Mali GPU Vulkan drivers on modern Dolphin. Options are MMJR for Vulkan or switch to OpenGL for Double Dash.
@@Robtech I’m using RP3+ and it’s funny all the “reviews” show Double Dash but never talk about the blue tinge overlay. And if you can cope with that it runs great. Pretty sure I was getting near full speed from an official dolphin build though. I’ll have to go check now.
@@Robtech Latest Dolphin Beta on RP3+ Double Dash with Open GL plays pretty solid using the PAL image. There may be a bit of mileage with the CPU/GPU governor tweaks in the latest update however.
I have a 353p and this 405m and it's definitely a nice upgrade. An you don't need the dual boot to use android and emulation on 405m. The only thing i dont like is the triggers aren't stacked.
Is there a stipulation from Anbernic that everyone who got a review unit has to show Kingdom Hearts? All the reviews I’ve seen make a point of showing how well it runs. Haven’t seen a single review mention FFX tho, which for me, would be the one PS2 game that I would love to play.
Problem with the grips on the back is that after a bunch of use the pad glue stops holding the pads in place and they move around and spread a gross sticky-ness all over the back.
Do you know if you will b able to install garlic os with a Mac cpu? And is there a way yet to install gammas with a Mac because not everyone has windows😅
No I'm saying look at the instructions for installing it and check if there's a Mac alternative. First step for installing GarlicOS "Download and install 7zip on your system". So if 7zip isn't on Mac, search for an app for Mac that can extract 7zip files and so on.
@@Robtech I didn’t know that, I thought you would need a computer to drag game files/roms to folders to play them…but if you can do all this from the device itself that’s pretty cool 😎

Yeah, OpenGL was too slow. Around 40fps

Cool, I'll give it a shot.
been having a lot of fun with the new advance wars
Yeahhh...I'm gonna wait for the next iteration. Too many issues with this one, including screen separation.

Buy the grip it solves the problem
Thanks for another helpful review.
While GarlicOS for the 405M still isn't here, have you given GammaOS a try? Can you do a follow up video?
Mine didn't come with any games nor was there any options about games when I bought it.....

No, just was on the included SD card, so I tried it out
Honestly, FFX runs great! I’m using Gamma OS, aethersx2 and am running Vulcan graphics and it runs great with some other basic setting tweaks
which android racing game is that at 9:22
Real Racing 3
Thanks, great game!

I hate when I get that gross sticky all over the back!! 😮

@@9unslin9er I'll do my best! Sometimes it just gets too sticky and slimy and I can't help it!
are better of just getting steam deck now?

You'll need to look up if there are software replacements on macOS for the Windows apps in the installation process.
@@Robtech u saying when I go the gammas website I need to see if there is a way to download using Mac😒

@@Robtech what about Gammas for the rg405 can it b installed using a Mac
What about wii u emulation with breath of the wild?
Won't do any Wii U emulation.
Where do you download your games for rg405m?
Google search the title you're looking for and you'll quickly find it.
there is no dual boot linux android like the rg 353P I would have bought it with my eyes closed!
Kingdom hearts keeps crashing haven’t even made it off the island without it freezing on the cut scene when the heartless take over the island
Can you emulate games from the device itself?
All the games shown are emulated on the device itself
@@Robtech I didn’t know that, I thought you would need a computer to drag game files/roms to folders to play them…but if you can do all this from the device itself that’s pretty cool 😎
They're stored on the micro sd card.
@@Robtech that’s cool to know, I was going to buy a steam deck to play the retro games I like, but this here seems to be all I need
You can use the internal storage to store Games
