Anbernic announces RG35XX 2024 Edition retro handheld

urbanman2004 · Mar 27, 2024

I already own the original RG35XX and before this announcement, I bought both the R36S and RG35XX H handhelds last week since they were on sale on AliExpress only for there to be another update to the RG35XX. I swear Anbernic is milking every last drop out of this sh*t, lmao

The Retroid Pocket Pro 4 is the way to go atm for a cheap retro system it handles ps2 very well many switch games working at full speed too i finished prince of persia the lost crown using Yuzu ..it was flawless in fps ... ..& all older systems of course work great especially Gamecube ...

So it's exactly the same, except without wireless connectivity of any kind.
...What's the point? It's like the bloody Wii Mini or 2DS; stripping out features for no reason, making it a wholly inferior product.

Another buyer's remorse thread lmao.

Just put a single analog on there and it would be useful to play DC or N64.

This. I like a few of their devices but why would they downgrade their 35XX Plus again? Completely stupid. Only to sell it for 10 bucks less.

I feel like they should emulate GBA design instead… that 4 shoulder button side by side doesn’t seem comfortable

Slinger · Mar 28, 2024

Huh, right when I just bought a r36s... :rofl2:

Actually don't regret buying it. It was cheap and it seems anbernic is still not doing proper metal-dome ("clicky") buttons, which is the one feature I really miss on all these consoles...

I don't use Anbernic handhelds myself, but the side by side shoulder buttons are something I enjoy with the KT-R1. They definitely fall short in games that actually require the use of all four buttons, but that's basically just PS1 with this? For the vast majority of systems, I just use the outer ones for controller inputs and have the inner ones act as hotkeys for other things since they're difficult to hit accidentally. Again on the KT I use the left inner shoulder button as a screen swap in Drastic and Citra, and the right one to create a quick save state.

If you're getting a system where you'll be mainly playing PS1, PS2, or maybe GamePass streaming, I do agree that stacked shoulder buttons are the way to go.

Anberbnic is their own best friend, and their own worse enemy. They're offering cool products, but at the same time they're flooding the market with so many models that they're competing against themselves.

Just offer 2 or 3 models at different price-points with different features and emulator capabilities, and do a refresh every couple of years. Sheesh.

Wake me up if they ever release an FPGA device.

Anbernic The main developers of maxzhou88 After releasing some designs for the Nintendo DS Hard Drive K2 a few years ago, though it didn't end up being officially released, Anbernic has spent the last few years producing mainly MIPS/ARM-based handhelds.

Here's the link to the demo video that was public at the time

They should have a Pro Version of the RG405V with 8GB Memory and a higher CPU-GPU

Can't wait for the premium 2Gb on board ram model

MarkDarkness · Mar 29, 2024

I bought one recently, but after a while I ended up figuring out that the Razer Kishin worked better for my lifestyle. No regrets.

70+ euros for a quad core A53 and 1GB of RAM?. hmm kinda of expensive for the specs.
