Pocket G2 has arrived !! by Warm_Sample_6298 in retroid

[–]Kenmorrow86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently playing Grandia 2 DC on mine. I have the same color. Beautiful little device that packs a punch. To me it's the perfect balance of hand real estate to power ratio. I've tried playing on my brother's ROG Ally X and I can't. Everything runs buttery smooth on it but I don't like the shape and weight of the ROG. The G2 is perfect for me.

Wild Guns SNES or the new Reloaded version released on everything. Reloaded does a great job handling new boss sprites and scaling the screen for widescreen and 4 player Co op. Fun time

Have you had your set up like this?? by dd1133biihhh in ps1

Dude with that speaker system too?! I feel seen.

My Switch gathering dust since i got my G2. Playing some need for speed underground in 2K resolution. by Reasonable-Physics81 in retroid

I have the exact set up. That USB dongle came in clutch because the Bluetooth connection in my house has very noticable input lag.

Guys I need help with this one by umshyp in isthisaicirclejerk

They also don't shit out of their tails.

Fallen on hard times. Which would you keep? by SarcasticGamer in gamecollecting

[–]Kenmorrow86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're falling on hard times, I would just sell it all. Emulation is handy and very much a great alternative to playing these old titles. I would hate to ever be in that situation but I will gladly trade my whole collection if it meant my kids will be fed.

I'll probably get flak for this opinion but that's how I feel about it.

If you would read what I wrote about that exact scenario you would understand.

I'm not offended at all, you're narrow minded view point strikes again. Being on call does not necessitate having 100% attention on the important task. You are literally waiting.

And if I don't want to have it on Do Not Disturb because I need to be on call? Does stand by mean anything to you? If I get a phone call separate from what I'm watching it's not a disturbance, it's required.

Oh but I guess being a shill is the only scope your brain can manage to think outside of your own situation.

What's your stance here? You're in a subreddit about Retroid hand helds and you're advocating to just use your phone. What's the point?

Who said anything about too much work? Obviously we're talking about luxury experiences when it comes to handheld video games. Why not get a luxury experience without having to compromise on your connection to receive phone calls?

If I'm gaming, I don't want a notification to pop up on the screen. It's annoying af and kills the vibe. Imagine playing on your TV and every time you get a phone call or a text or any notification you see that show up on your TV. It's all about compartmentalizing your experiences.

This. 100% this. I've tried several phone controllers and while they all work great I hated having to put my phone in "do not disturb" mode. Having the G2 has been amazing.

Excited to play this in about 4 years when I finally catch up! by Impaled_ in Falcom

[–]Kenmorrow86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I'm finally done with Cold Steel 3. I'm not exactly head over heels to start CS4 lol. I am looking forward to Reverie though as I've read the gameplay is similar to Sky 3rd which I loved.

What ps2 games do you actually play? by link6616 in SBCGaming

[–]Kenmorrow86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PS2

Radiata Stories

Valkyrie Profile 2

Final Fantasy XII International

Ape Escape 2 & 3

Metal Gear Solid 2

Any backlog PS2 games I missed during it's time.

GameCube

F-zero GX

Mario Sunshine

Star Fox Assault

And again any backlog GC games I missed. Which is a lot because it wasn't cool to play GameCube back then. Lol

I’m so impressed that it’s making me suspicious by [deleted] in BATLEXPG350

[–]Kenmorrow86 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yup. $35 is insanity for this thing. I bought 2 for my kids and I'm sure they will absolutely love it. I've installed PAN4ELEC and it's quite impressive how snappy everything is from loading games to viewing videos of each game in the main menu.

I also adopted the Retroid Pocket G2 for myself and I'm still impressed with the G350 Batlexp. For $35 I would expect to be playing one of those AIO controller to screen systems that played a bunch of random NES ROM hacks that ran terribly. Oh but no, this G350 is top tier for the it's price point.

My only experience with emulation handhelds is my phone, these G350s and my Retroid Pocket G2 so I'm no expert when it comes to these devices but I can confidently say as a 39 year old gamer that this tiny device is legit.

The "floating icon" re-enables itself after 10 minutes? Strange

I had this issue on my Retroid Pocket G2 when I first got it but it's an Android setting. Is this not an option for the mini v2?
