- Have you ever wanted to turn your home console into a portable console? The PS2 was the home console that I always wanted to be portable... and the PSP almost fulfilled that dream. But what would be better than a PSP? An actual PS2 Portable console! And that's exactly what this portable console from Aliexpress is. This Portable PS2 from Aliexpress uses real PlayStation 2 hardware and... it's interesting. The one I bought had some issues, but the Portable PlayStation 2 from Aliexpress seems to work ok now - let me know down below what you think of this Portable PS2!

Hey man big fan of yours vids been watching for about 4 years now!
The M stands for menu m8
It was sloppy soldering. But Its tough cause there is a lot of custom PCBs that make ti all work and overall I think the design is solid. But It needs like a better QA cleanup. Its like they just kind of got to the finish line and sat down before crossing it on this one. The overall form factor and design and parts all seem good. But....why not finish it. Also I think they missed a trick not having the HDMI port accessible from the outside. I would almost get out a dremel a port and HDMI extension to give it dual function as a portable screen.
Definitely careless,I can’t imagine how much People bought this and it didn’t work it stopped working later on because of the same issue
Tekken 4 doesn’t use the joysticks
Looks like a ton of problems for $400. Consumer definitely shouldn't have to open the console to check for solder shavings lol
at that price, I would also put up 100 to 200 for a modder stateside to go over and clean up stuff. Maybe check that the D Pad is better set.
You could get steam deck for that price.
@@corporateshill3225 this isn’t really comparable to the steam deck though. Like comparing apples to oranges
I think it would be reasonable at $400 if it didn’t have the d-pad and solder issues. Custom portables go for $1,000+ when you have them commissioned
@@corporateshill3225 you just complained about not being able to use ps2 disks, you can't use disks on an emulator either, and almost no emulator is going to play as perfect as original hardware. but you do you.
for $400 I'd rather get a steam deck
It can emulate anyway, so this ps2 portable is useless compared to it.
ye or some Odin
a steamy deck of what?
No I d rather get a pc which I already have since 96 well not the same pc of course hahahahaha
@@manafbenayache1880 The steam deck is a portable PC.
Despite the cost of it, consider me impressed that someone actually went through all of this to make a custom portable ps2
Also me tho, Despite the cost of it(2), how they can reverse engineering an actual ps2 into a portable device and that thiccboi is the actual device not the emulator.
@@SudwijaMenggillait’s basically a real ps2 with the hardware being modded in order to fit in this console. No reverse engineering at all. Still interesting tho.
I guess it's not that much smaller than a slim PS2, if you move some things on the board around. I did not know a PS2 can boot without the disc drive, that's impressive
scammers looking for more profit made it. ffs
Esa consola parece las papitas de bolsa, bien grande pero por dentro parece vacía
I would have been SO pissed off if I spent almost $500 on that custom system from China. Waited almost a month to get it... assuming. And the thing didn't work. Mad props to you for being able to open it up and fix the problem yourself!
I would say you would be mad to spend $500 on a custom 3d printed "portable" DIY PS2 project and expect anything more than he got.
I was expecting a PSP sized handheld based on the thumbnail, this thing is a monster!
modern phones can run ps2 games , i have no clue why this chunky POS is so big
Tbh I was expecting that it would be advertised as a ps2 but then when he got it it would be some crappy NES/famicom clone
@@CoolPlayer2056 lmao same
Nah, they put a whole PS2 in that shell lol.
That's what she said lol.
Fun fact: The joystick issue with NBA Street has been baffling me for years. On my first fat PS2, you could not move up and left at the same time using analog. Your player would stop in place. I changed controllers and got the same problem. On my slim PS2, oddly enough, the problem seemed gone. Last year, on my jailbroken PS3 with software emulation, the problem returned with a vengeance. I have no idea what is causing this, but it even reoccurred in the Xbox version of NBA Street 3. This is the first time I’ve ever seen another person say this out loud. Interesting!
Same with gamecube as well? I don't think I've ever noticed if so
Did you use the same disc for all three times? It's possible they fixed this in a software revision if not. Otherwise, I'm wondering if the software emulation plays a role given how different it was for the slim.
Never had that problem with GameCube I got a jailbroken Wii and nba street plays very smooth
Not enough details, but it sounds like either an update to NBA Street (which means a newer printing of the actual disc) or the PS2 firmware fixed it.
@@SLAAMIT that's cause nintendo products usually work lmao
Man good for you. I used to live above you in a house in Mississippi(it burned down later, you know the one). 275k subs. Nice.
favourite ps2 game is Battlefield 2: Modern Combat. Amazing amazing battlefield game. One of the best multiplayer experiences ill ever have.
For that price point, considering all of the issues, a better option for most people would be to get a steam deck, duel boot with windows, and run a PS2 emulator. This Portable PS2 is a cool system, but just seems to have too many issues to justify the price
No need for Windows when it comes to emulation. Especially when it comes to integrating custom launchers into steam or other front end loaders, Linux is just better.
Just a phone and a razer kishi
My phone runs ps2 games at 4 times res. That with a ps5 controller and I'm all set.
or buy a desktop mid gaming pc i512gen / GTX 1660 / 16GB
@@AdikMusicOfficialTM No one who buys this is looking for anything but to play games on the go. A full end PC is a completely different product than who they're selling to.
Honestly - just because it looks like a Vita makes me like it a lot more. The price seems kind of high considering the price of the PS2s vs the Dreamcast. Still really need to see - I enjoy this series. You should find a sweet Sega Saturn handheld (unless I missed it).
Just buy a Steam Deck for $399 can play all the PS2 games and a good amount of PS3 games as well.
Haven’t seen a portable Saturn yet… but I’ll see if I can find one
@@JohnnyThund3r most of the steam games or just run windows . all your choice.
These days you can't run sega saturn games properly on emulators very well
@@JohnnyThund3r meh.. Portable PS2 with the Vita look tho is dope.
This was an awesome video thank you. Cool to see the inside while you explained what was wrong in there. Subbed
Pricey. Scarface the world is yours was my fave PS2 game I'd still play it now
The PCs screen is a homebrew one that's mainly used for Pi computer boards but since they are so versatile alot of DIY users have found all types of amazing ideas for their utilization. That's mainly what the HDMI was meant for but you can use for anything. This was an interesting walk through thanks for sharing your purchase.
For $400, I was expecting a nice non 3D- Printed console. I guess I can let the 3D-Print go but after seeing the issues, I don't think it's worth $400.
Nothing from Ch yna is worth that much.
Well, it's a tv, a ps2 and a controller all in one. So it may be worth at least half of that.
@@Jahn_Pah_Jonz everything is from China
@@ateez_stan777 This!
@@idk0163 $200 is kinda pushing it. But I think $200 would be an ok price, but still pricey.
great video. thanks for the sharing.
8.4v because the console is lacking disk drive/dvd decoder entirely im assuming so doesnt need the same voltage it used to.. lots of pc stuff works exactly the same underpowered also the power rating of something is generally a guideline but it is better to follow it to avoid problems.
Just so people are aware - if you’re getting a portable console like this commissioned by someone in the modding community, you’ll most likely be shelling out well over $1,000. A ton of time goes into making a custom portable. This one is cheaper because it seems that they have some sort of small assembly line for these lol. $450 is definitely reasonable (if it didn’t have the solder issue)
I doubt these custom-made handhelds would last for long.
Besides, with the explosion of new handhelds left and right, that pack enough power to run PS2 and beyond, I don't get why someone would pay more for something sub-par like these custom made units.
@@ahmedp8009 there will always people that prefer real hardware over emulation. Like me
@Jaime Cruz emulation is better because of higher resolution, filtering etc.
@@jrob0021 emulation is better, better quality, upscaled, etc.
Why would anyone pay 1000$ for a portable console with questionable quality when you can emulate completely free and have the battery last longer than 3h
This is what is supported by many..technicalities and brands that also enjoy doing.. many certainties and very good remarks. Including certs.
That just turned me off from third-party mods forever, but I'm glad you had the knowledge to fix it.
Maybe if you remove the board from the upper shell, you can sort the d-pad issue out. Most likely just got too much flex on the board itself and needs reinforced. Looks cool though, would be cool to see someone build one of these.

What's the BEST PS2 game of all time??
Max Payne and GTA 3
burnout 3 takedown and any ps1 spyro game
LOL If you want to buy this console? Do you really hate your viewers that much?
I think you have an addiction to portables
The Simpsons hit and run
I will be purchasing one . I love it . Sometimes I missed the old days playing fifa 08 on ps2 as a child .
Not a random voltage, 8,4 is the voltage of fully charged two li-ion cells.
It's cheaper that way, than making it 9v and adding some regulators to finally make it 8,4 anyway.
I remember watching another person review this same unit and it was even more a mess than pictured here. It isn't even that bad when comparing it to other homemade portable console mods but when you take something like this that takes a lot of hands on effort and try to sell it as a mass produced product you naturally get tons of quality control issues. There's a reason why people who make modded portable consoles rarely sell them and when they do they charge more than double than what this costs.
The d-pad and button pcb boards were held in with two screws each. I wonder if adding the other two screws to the d-pad supports would alleviate the need press button hard.
Love the series❤ but you left the clock undone, it would be cool to see it as a working clock and maybe have some sort of Jordan brand/basketball court esthetic, I know it is hard and heavy work but it could be really cool, maybe since it’s a little tech/custom job you could upload it in your other channel. But thank you for the awesome series, I rally love your content
curious, could you make the d-pad more responsive if you wanted to?
dunno if I'd pay so so much for a modified PS2, but this is still really really cool. I dig this idea, just wish it didn't cost so so much. I'd be tempted to make one instead for cheaper, but I don't own a 3D printer nor the materials required to 3D print
I kind of dig it, 3D printed case is a good thing imo because its better than something that got dremel work done on it or whatever, good screen but needs better quality control.
For the amount of custom parts in it the price isnt that crazy in my opinion, i wouldnt buy it but its not a bad price.
expensive, yes but.... i mean its a portable PS2 with original mainboard in it.
Right, its almost perfect except the QA pass. Like they almost cross the finish line. If they fix those things, they could charge more for these things.
I bought one recently that is faulty, the power switch is detached. You don't happen to have a photo/video of where it connects to do you? Im struggling to find this information anywhere. Thank you!
5:44 .. the "Chip" is a Memory Card which is soldered directly to the internal connector.
Super cool but High price to get something that didn't work out the box is crazy. Lucky you know what your doing because I sure wouldn't have
My favorite PS2 game is between Spider-Man 2 and Goblet of Fire not just because of the excellent gameplay but because of the interesting development stories behind them. I think GoF takes the cake though.
Best Spider-Man game
1:04 on wards with no video is amazing
There were accessories that could essentially turn it portable. They made mobile monitors with car adapters and the one I had also had a wall power supply to. I think it still works. I had a wireless ps2 controller from sony. I still have the mobile monitor for both the phat and slim ps2’s. This psvita style portable is awesome
You can change the aspect ratio to 4x3 in the display options where the brightness, contrast, and other output options appear.
Or you can change the PS2 output in the main menu to output 16:9. It's always had that ability.
With how chunky the thing already is, would have been awesome if they made it a little bit thicker so you could slot in a sata ssd. Using usb is not ideal for the ps2.
Would love a portable ps2 with a disc drive attached, but I’m pretty happy playing ps2 games on an emulator on my aya neo 😏😏
Yeah, for it to be running games off usb at this price point is kinda silly
Maybe even add a wifi card to run games from local computer/server.
@@lucassantossj at that point its a ps vita. Why do this? Increase the cost to include non ps2 features?
@@DewgittyDewg Because usb 1.1 belongs in 1999.
I love that the screen acts like a tv it adds to the ps2 vibes
It seems as if the buttons are a bit chintzy. The real question becomes: do the face buttons preserve the analog switching mechanisms present in real PS2 controllers? If not that would make certain games that benefit from or even require this feature, such as The Bouncer (and possibly some niche aspects of MGS 2 & 3) nigh on unplayable. I think the presence or absence of the analog button mechanism would definitely factor into my decision-making process if I were to invest in this device vs a different portable system that could potentially run a PS2 emulator.
There’s so many available if you search “modified handheld motherboard”, there’s even a PS2 portable shoved into a Wii U gamepad
That thing is massive! I was expecting it to be the size of a PS Vita.
I play a lot of tekken, to see 4 on that thing bought some nostalgia 😂
I wish you'd explored the components, like are they using the original CPU or is it a general purpose CPU with an emulator running on it
The manufacturer did a pretty good job packing a full-fledged ps2 in a handheld model. This would be pretty impressive if they only did some QA to make sure everything is A-OK functionality wise but then you can get a ps4 for less than $400 these days
yeah definitely not worth the price, although still cool, but poorly made, wouldn't purchase it for 200, never mind 400. Ive had a switch for about 3 years and have NEVER had a single issue with it, not one, and the screen and graphics are amazing for the $300 I paid, looks like a $1000 handheld system next to this thing. And the games are far better, run smoother, look 10x better, and 1/4 of the chunkiness. This thing looks like it came out in 2010 after the PS2 and we are doing an old review. Couldn't come close to justifying that price for how it looks and runs.
Less than 400$? They are around 250$... for 400$ you could get working PS3 and PS4
@@Guardsgotgame11 Yea
Yep. Got my ps4 a few days ago for 80€
@@LionMil1 from where u got it?
The size isn't to much of an issue for me, I have a "Hyperkin Superboy" for SNES games that's as big and a "Gamerz Tek 8-Bit Boy for NES games that's even bigger + the cart. It does looks cool though but my issue is workmanship and price, thanks great Review.
It looks good, but for the shoulder buttons they should've printed them in the same colour as the rest
That thing has a cooling fan! This is crazy but where would you get game?
I wish they would add some more attention to detail. If this was mine I would check all solder points again and all pins just to make sure it's all good. I would also sand the case down and give it a glossy paint finish so it does not look so 3d printery.
Tough to paint a surface you're going to be holding for extended times, since the oils, sweat and heat in your hands will usually melt most paints.
It'd be interesting to see how much of a buff shine you could work into the printed medium WITHOUT paint...
Its probably 8.4V because the maximum charging voltage of a 18650 is 4.2V and 4.2 x 2 is 8.4 (obviously 2 in parallel and two in series)
Yeah it made more sense once I was snooping around inside the case with my multimeter and saw that the batteries were 4.2v
indeed each 2 pack is wired series to give 8.4v then the two 2s packs are wired in parallel to increase the capacity
@@moorhen6156
in reality its exactly the opposite of what you said. you messed up parallel and series.
@@Mounty2010 haha so I did my bad I'll edit that now lol
That is an odd configuration, what voltage does the PS2 actually require when it is stepped down to the original console?
I only say odd due to possible uneven drain from a dual series and dual parallel capacity running together.
Then again, they look like they recycled the batteries from another device, the wraps are quite torn up on the right side.
i got one of these for my christmas even though i wanted steam deck but i'm still happy cause the thought matters
i've got this little 7" TFT monitor by a company called "Lancevon" and it has the exact identical GUI and menu for the monitor.
Just a quick FYI: As far as I know no game in the Tekken series supports analog during the main fighting game portion (Though some side games like Devil Within from 5 did allow analog controll)
I started with Tekken 6 on PSP, and as far as I remember analog has been supported at least since then. I really don't know about the PS2 games, but it is definitely supported in the most recent ones.
@@iinkshade Recently I played Tekken Tag 2 on Xbox and I can assure you analog is NOT supported. Which instantly made the game worse having to use that shitty d-pad. They may have supported it with 7, and maybe 6, but why would 6 gain it, and then Tag Torun 2 drop it?
@@UnbornDecay I just pulled out my instruction manual from my Tag Tournament 2 PS3 case right now, and it says analog is supported on page 2. I even checked on my ps3 and analog definitely works there. It's turned off by default, but all you have to do is go into the settings and turn it on. Idk if it just an Xbox thing or what, but I doubt it. Pretty sure you just missed the setting. I would check Tekken 6 for you too, but I don't have it anymore.
@@UnbornDecay i guarantee you that its supported in tekken 7
Maybe buy a new controller
Hard to choose a favorite game because the console had so many amazing games. Kingdom Hearts, Onimusha, Test Drive Eve of Destruction, ATV Off-road Fury, Silent Hill, Ty the Tasmanian Tiger, Spider-Man just to name a few.
Onimusha was fire
@@hrestherson4481 it really was. I'm still waiting and wishing for Capcom to remaster 2-4
Great review
It would be nice to compare this to a Steam Deck just for size comparison since both are big handhelds.
Steam deck isn't that big. It's very slim
@@YOSEPHALLEN92 Comparing to the Nintendo Switch, the Steam Deck is quite big (every CZcamsr has compared those two already plenty of times) so comparing this device (in the video) would be nice to compare to the Steam Deck.
So this thing was busted right from the get go. It's good that you are knowlegeable and were able to fix the issue but for the average person this would have been $450 wasted.
Facts
Fav games : Smackdown : Here comes the Pain, DownHill Domination, Bloody Roar 5, Burnout, DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
All strategy game is my fave, and more than likely the left buttons is software issue, however check if the membranes that activates the butten is not messed up or what ever cause they can cause issues too
It looks great, they should build them in a quality controlled factory and these would sell like churros on summer partys!
and then sony will step in
@@Game_x_y_z true, didn't think of that
sorry for hurting your feelings man i was just telling
@@Game_x_y_z no problem mate
they will run out of ps2 slims
I was debating getting this kind of handheld but then I saw KH3 on a Steam Deck and decided I wanted the Deck. I want a handheld that can play PS2 games but if it can run that and more I see no reason to not pay the $100+ more.
yea the steam deck is amazing. just got it and it blows my mind as its like an emulator everything plus modern games i want to play off steam. also feels incredibly comfortable in the hands. emulation statio and emudeck are must haves too, Im enjoying shadow hearts ps2 on it rn
I just got my Steam Deck, highly recommend it. It's a full PC so you can even install Windows and emulators on it if you want, but I'm enjoying the Linux OS they made for it and my backlog of Steam games. My favorite part is the hardware support tho, it's phenomenal compared to these no-name Chinese handhelds: Valve has already said they will be selling official spare parts for it to replace on your own, and they have their own teardown videos for replacing joysticks. That alone shows me they intend to support it for a very long time.
@@generaldirection5123 GetMyDeck is telling me I'm 7.2% the way there. The wait is gonna suck.
i got an steam deck 6 months ago the cheapest one. installed windows 10 on a sd card. so i use my steam deck as a pc. playing all my nes , snes , switch , pc and PS2 games. i just quit playing games on my rtx pc. its insane that people dont have an handheld now. especially office going people. like i wasn't able to play games now i spend all my traval time on gaming. finished dmc 5 , re 4 remake , playing sakiro now works like a charm in windows 10 steam deck
the problem is i only play one game or two on the pc my brother owns and theyr not really high graphic its trully embrassing the the game i play on the pc i also play on my phone that lags the pc
with a 3D Printer, or even with a 3D Printing service, it shouldn't cost more than 200$ in terms of parts.
and i'm guessing it shouldn't take more than a few hours to make.
honestly this video made me want to build one myself so.... thank you for a good weekend project suggestion Jacob
Shipping and assembly cost money
I think instead of making a replica ps vita, if they just slapped a ps2 with a screen and sold it along side a controller as a bundle, it would work better. Can even allow for 2 player functionality.
Whatcha talkin bout, Willis!
8.4v is a fully charged 2 cell lipo battery. Not a random voltage.
Inside the console there seems to be the original seller information on taobao which is a Chinese exclusive market so it seems like this console was resold to you buy a middle man aka drop shipping which means you paid extra and it’s probably cheaper if you bought directly of of taobao check the seller to see what the original price was
I have one of these and love it for the most part. My only major gripe with it is that just like your left d pad button issue mine is with the O button which is extremely unfortunate with games that use it a lot :/ really have to push that button hard for it to register
One thing that was great about the PS2 controller was that almost all the buttons were pressure sensitive, which was very useful, especially for racing games. I'm guessing these are not?
Nearly all PS2 racing games allow you to use the right stick for gas/brake, so this wouldn't be a huge issue. I think I like the buttons slightly better, but I switch back and forth a lot. Ace Combat on the other hand really took advantage of the pressure sensitive buttons, utilizing 6 out of 8 for that function.
@@scottthewaterwarrior that's pretty cool, I never knew that. I always wanted to play Ace Combat but never got around to doing it
I loved Rumble Racing for the PS2. It was kinda like Mario cart, but with real cars 😛
Where is the disc player for the ps2 vita
The board that was "flopping around" looked to be a memory card. That modder should have added kapton tape around it (seemed destine for another short).
It honestly doesn't look bad. I know I wouldn't buy it though.
And my favorite game on PS2 is Tekken 5.
Kapton tape is expensive. They have to cut corners somewhere.
@@tomc8157 yeah a product shorting out because of cut costs is flat out unacceptable and not worth buying.
You know, I'm actually kind of wanting one of these now lol
I assume it uses 18650 Li batteries, they're 4.2v and if I recall from the last time I worked on one the ps2 slim runs on 8.5v but without a disc drive will take down to 7.4v.
Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria is my all time fav
Drakengard is my favorite PS2 game.
It's a dark medieval fantasy eldritch horror JRPG. It's a tad jank and super niche but one of it's sequels "NieR Automata" got some mainstream success. And honestly Yoko Taro's genius shines through.
I really hope we someday get a port of it to steam and newer consoles because it costs too much for the average person to justify on it, and while piracy is a solution it leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
Based.
@@horodoomwolf based? based on what?
I was unaware NieR was related to Drakengard..
@@MxGRhythmlModsMusicGamingl Based on Drakengard, known in Japan as Drag-On Dragoon, is a series of action role-playing video games created by Yoko Taro. The eponymous first game in the series was released in 2003 on the PlayStation 2, and has since been followed by a sequel, a prequel and several spin-offs. A spin-off series titled Nier, taking place in an alternative timeline set after a different ending to the first Drakengard than the one 2005's Drakengard 2 followed, was started in 2010 with the eponymous game.
Look at the big timeline of Yoko taro games it's kinda ridiculous with books and STAGE PLAYS in the middle of it
weird they didn't do the sd card mod for this. would of had better compatibility.
Bro pulled out a skateboard
The screen is an old tv screen for in the car from 2007 i had this when i was a child😭
That was ... interesting :) It's a bit shame, because it seems that, it lacked some "finishing" touch.
If he / they tested the device, then probably you wouldn't have to open it. Also, they could fix the D-pad.
On the other hand, like you mentioned the soldering seems a bit amateur.
But overall, like i said - it's ... interesting :)
I feel like they could’ve just stook with the vita model and be a little more “clean” with the hardware inside. I do like the idea of being able to play PS2 games on the go but until then, they should just concentrate on an emulator that works for the vita. That’s my take however.🤷♂️
Per your request, my favorite PS2 games are Bujingai TFC, Tenchu 3, and Chaos Legion.
Are the buttons pressure sensitive like the og ps2? MGS3 would be impossible to play without
V7 probably means it's the 7th version. Looks like a good portable with the only downside being that it was made in China and used crappy d-pad and analog stick. If you could modify it just sacrifice a PS2 controller and replace all those buttons and d-pad on the handheld with the ones from the PS2 controller.
Exactly what I thought. Just replace the crappy control boards with parts taken from an original controller, and once you got them tuned in properly, control should be near normal...
How comfortable and light. I love how thin it is and how few problems it gives. Smart buy man
Lmaooo
😂😂😂
Smart for him because he's made at least 4k off this video.
Can u PLEASE try an experiment to get it playing on a tv with multiple controllers?
Can u try getting an adapter for it to use with a capture card and a multi USB port dongle that comes with an HDMI port and like 3 USB ports(if u can't find one, can u try finding one the is another multi-tap for more USB slots) and connect 2 wireless ps2 dualshock 2 (or 3rd party controller) connect them and try seeing if it'll show up on the screen.
My favorite ps2 games are NFS most wanted and Dynasty warriors 4. I would always play those games and never get tired of them. I wish they did a remaster on them but for sure DW4 isn’t as popular.
Per your request: I'd say my favorite PS2 game was probably Blood Omen 2 from the Legacy of Kain series, or the sequel; Soul Reaver.
BO2 was great once you've unlocked a couple of vampiric powers...especially the Jump power. There's just something about targeting an enemy (or victim) from long distance, then just leaping at full speed and slamming them to the ground, and using the mist form that just makes you feel like an actual bad-a$$ vampire, unlike so many other vampire games.
My two cents.

My favourite games are gow 2,Prince of persia two thrones and nfs most wanted
A very neat thing, but the debris is a dissapointment.
This is pretty cool
A while back you could buy ps2 with broken disk drive for next to nothing so that's probably what this came from
I wonder if you can mod a sata laptop drive into it or use one of the sd card memory card adapter to get better performance
How much Do you think it costs them to make this device? I wonder how much profit they make per device
The shop link does not work. Is it not available anylonger?
Would be very cool if we ever see a portable PS3. (if that's possible to make tho)
Probably possible, just very large and would be difficult to cool it
PSP pretty much what your talking about
i think its draw too much power and because of that, the cooling system is a problem too
I would love that
@@rykerz105 noo, a legit console that reads ps3 games. PSP has its games ported
It's incredible that enough people bought this device to have made it worthwhile to produce. Especially since even a modern smartphone can easily emulate PS2 games.
If you click on the aliexpress link from the video description it says that it has 5 total orders... So it's not such a mass production going on
You need at least 500k Antutu score to comfortably emulate light and medium titles. 1 million Antutu score is enough for anything
that's crazy to think about, mine can barely run ppsspp
"Easily emulate PS2 games" is something of a statement modern smartphones and even high end PCs still find trouble. Some games still have audio issues, visual glitches stuttering and fps issues, all of those could only be fixed with certain BIOS and plugins.
Problem is, you need a high end performance phone to actually run ps2 games smoothly
Help me. Switch or new portable Ps2 AliExpress? Which do you recommend? Does portable ps2 work well?
The concept is worth 500 bucks, but the execution is worth half that.
For that price you could get decent Android phone and turn it into an emulator.
Damn the internals of this were sus. I just did my first custom SP and had no soldering experience. This looked like my first attempt lmao.
Things packing a 10 incher… impressive
The screen itself isn't 10 inches. Screens are measured diagonally not across.
