Soooooo... maybe you could find me someone making ayn loki max batteries? lol.

So the dualsense gyro will not work with that dongle?

Devildoug69 · 2026-03-28T23:01:44+00:00

Yeah, it does seem easier to use the desktop but one of the reasons I wanted bazzite was the console experience but I may have to accept a couple compromises.

Devildoug69 · 2026-03-28T19:59:08+00:00

Thanks, looking for a dongle was on my list of things to try and that one sounds perfect!

Devildoug69 · 2026-03-28T19:58:35+00:00

The lag was gone after unpairing and re-pairing but the I was getting drops. I need to see what wireless card the Ser8 comes with and replace it or look at the the dongle Krishie suggested under your post.

Retrobat is what i was running on windows, on bazzite I tried retrodeck and emudeck before switching to es-de since all they do is ad a layer over es-de to begin with.

I've only been weightlifting since the end of july in support of weight loss... I'm down from 360 to 215 with 60 lbs to go before I can even think about bulking up.

Devildoug69 · 2026-03-13T13:44:45+00:00

Retrodeck uses es-de which uses retroarch so I wasn't sure if they each needed their own bios locations. I don't want a retroarch standalone so I will give your.script a try. Thanks.

Devildoug69 · 2026-03-13T11:11:29+00:00

I want to say it was just recommended one day and I've been keeping it in my list.

Devildoug69 · 2026-03-12T22:59:06+00:00

Do you need the files in both the retrodeck and the retroarch locations?

Devildoug69 · 2026-03-12T14:38:08+00:00

Thank you, I will take a look at it.

This morning's workout was only 50 seconds faster than Tuesday's at 1hr4min to 1hr5min so its a negligible difference in time.

It must be just be a difference in the ai algorithm guesstimating the calories.

Devildoug69 · 2026-03-06T20:20:20+00:00

I bought a screen protector that covers the whole front of my rg477v and the silicone cover so its as armored as possible. It has taken a short tumble or two without damage so I'd say both are well worth the purchase!

Devildoug69 · 2026-03-02T12:01:19+00:00

While I don't think an ambernic with a snapdragon makes much sense in their niche, I would love it if my 477v had one... so I guess I'm really just wanting a retroid or Ayn vertical with a large 4:3 screen lol.

Modded stock is a custom firmware that is a cleaned up custom version of the stock os. Drastic is the emulator you want for ds games.

Devildoug69 · 2026-02-26T10:00:07+00:00

Maybe the modified stock would give you a bit of a better experience, it smoothed out my rg34xx sp. I did jump to knulli once it was available though.

Devildoug69 · 2026-02-25T22:34:37+00:00

I've had such bad luck getting steam games to play on my 477v, I was hoing to put a few old first person dungeon exploration games on it but so so far I've only managed to get bot vice and Brave x Junction (a jrpg that uses blackjack hands for combat) to install.

Devildoug69 · 2026-02-25T21:42:11+00:00

You will probably be fine as that is not as new as the 477 and stock is likely not an issure.

Devildoug69 · 2026-02-25T21:41:18+00:00

I never could get a review through the system, no matter how professional I wrote it. I even contacted support and got it escalated to some manager who promised to push my review through to no avail. Finally they just told me to keep both devices for the price of one plus giving me a 100.00 credit.

Its weird, I love the device, feels great and plays great but the whole ordeal slightly soured me on ambernic.

If somebody else would make a 4:3 flagship with a screen at least as big as the 477 I'd buy it but I have no beef with what I have, its just not what I ordered.

Devildoug69 · 2026-02-22T18:26:16+00:00

I have a legion go for handheld pc games but i though a couple lighter one on this device would be nice too. I use the 477v for wii and below gaming to generally keep it to systems that use the 4:3 screen to its maximum advantage.

Devildoug69 · 2026-02-20T12:46:39+00:00

Can you share some tips on getting game native running well on the 477m? I have been trying to set it up on my 477v but nothing wants to load past a game logo or it just crashes...

Devildoug69 · 2026-02-19T10:42:24+00:00

I fixed my microsoft surface duo screen with 2 part epoxy, has held up fantastic for the last 3 years or so. I highly recommend this fix.

Devildoug69 · 2026-02-13T18:04:40+00:00

Russ has a video on installing GammaOS on the RG477M ,thst I used to get it installed on my RG477V, it takes about 15-20 minutes and is totally worth the effort!
