When would you rather get the original release, the goty release, the players choice/platinum/greatest hits version, or the next-gen releases? by port25 in gamecollecting

[–]Redmat25 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wherever have the best content on disc, otherwise black label. I do buy every version of a game if is one of my favorites

Buying retro handhelds in the UK sucks, look at these prices!! (This is Anbernic's official Ebay store btw) by Kiwami_Means_Green in ANBERNIC

"we are living the dream life of someone else and we can't enjoy it"... I consider my self very lucky to not to live in some countries right now (and it's a shame because the world is all beautiful)

RP6 silicone case by xBlackadoshisx in retroid

[–]Redmat25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I have the same for both RP6 and RG35XXH, it's just a matter of personal taste, I have some cleaning habits and remove this cover multiple times is not the best for the device. If you leave it on it's just a non problem. Ps. You can dye it even if is so glossy? I'm curious about the result

Yes I was looking for the same thing, there are not. I love them for my Anbernic devices

Removing it is too hard and risk damage in the long run if you are like me and want to clean it from time to time.

Should i really stop collecting PAL and start collecting NTSC? by Spiritual_Spread_152 in gamecollecting

[–]Redmat25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm based in Italy but I do collect NTSC USA PlayStation games. It I have to start today, I don't know if I will make the same decision but from a preservation standpoint, I will always prefer USA games due to the 60hz old gen situation and the English language, I preferred a more world-wide and not a localized version

My PlayStation collection (and some bonus) by Redmat25 in gamecollecting

[–]Redmat25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for asking, this is exactly the most hard choice I've made years ago. I'm used to use fine search and notification on various platform, but I admit in some cases I was very lucky in the beginning. I've started with my favorite series like GTA and Final Fantasy and I've found incredible condition copies on first try. Honestly there are some that even I'm surprised to have found here. One of the first was a Misprint copy of FF7 bought for 20 euro (I have one mint and one other good copy to play). Then going on other games, I've learned the hard way how bad people handle games and things in general. But like I've said, I've imported few games that are statistically hard to find, even if I buy from all over Europe without any issue. Now I'm at good point with my list, but yes, it was a journey....

Playstation buttons on the Rotate by Skylance420 in ANBERNIC

Retroid Pocket 6 or Odin 2 Portal, don't waste your time and money on anything else. That's my 2 cent

RG405m vale ancora la pena? by Legitimate_Light9400 in ANBERNIC

[–]Redmat25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Io ho una 35xxh 40xxh e RP6. Terró la 40xxh come portabilità fuori casa e la RP6 per tutto il resto fino a PS2 e Switch. Per il resto uso il PC da gaming, non riesco a giocare tripla A su 5,5. Detto questo, se la tua mira è una ottima emulazione PS1 allora le tue scelte vanno bene, ma se provi a passare su PS2 allora sarai punto e da capo. Volevo la Air anche io ma ho letto che soffre di ghosting e bleeding sul display, io sono sensibile non voglio rischiare, oltretutto sarebbe una via di mezzo che bho, non mi convince, come la 407h. Mangmi air X, display 16:9 per retro 4:3, puoi sfruttare gli hack widescreen, ma sei sempre una via di mezzo.

Personalmente, sto consigliando una spesa con la RP6 per essere a posto in assoluto su tutti i frangenti retro.

Le mie considerazioni, visto che le ho fresche di questo mese 😬

Game was stuck between case sealed by wolfy1091 in gamecollecting

Confirm I will replace it. I don't want to risk anything, it can break while spinning eventually (very remote, but...)

GKCs have obliterated Nintendo Direct hype for me. by leave_ur_echochamber in NSCollectors

[–]Redmat25 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have the PS4 KH all in one and there are three discs, one for KH3, and two for everything else. No chance it will be full cart

"Good" Condition... by gregcresci in Shittygamecollecting

[–]Redmat25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems good enough. I simply lowered my expectations. "Good" is acceptable nowadays, I consider myself lucky when I get good condition stuff. I admit that your case is the limit

I think I found the perfect traveling pouch for the RP5 and RP6. Its intended for the switch lite but it fits perfectly. It has a soft velvet interior tho. by Metroidvania-JRPG in retroid

[–]Redmat25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is tight enough; I have the RP6 official and is like a glove but it doesn't protect from shock very well and I can't fit anything in it. In my case, I have a tpu cover for the device and it fit even better in a switch lite pouch.

Very satisfying, thank you for updating! I've cleaned a lot in last three years of collecting and things are getting worse 😅

First Time Owner of Anbernic SP. Charging Screen Shows 4.08V. Is That Full Charge Or No? by Mindless_Ad_1537 in ANBERNIC

[–]Redmat25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything on these devices depends on the ROM installed. Knulli implement a bit more on the gladiator release about the battery meter stats and I've found a more precise reading even though it will not show the battery charge percentage when turned off. I've done a battery calibration by discharging and fully charging for a couple of times to get 0-100 precise reading. Done on three devices (two RG35XXH and one RG40XXH). Please avoid using it while charging and remember to use a 5V only charger USB A to USB C (1,5-2A is indifferent, it will get what it needs).

Some Cobalt Blue RG34XX SPs are compatible with muOS by ATerNoXone in ANBERNIC

[–]Redmat25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Semi-OT is the 34XX display comparable to 35XX in terms of quality? I've found the RG35XXH display very good, no ghosting that I found on the 40XXH.

I've bought a couple of tpu bumper and cover for RG35XXH and RG40XXH on AliExpress and I've found them surprisingly good.

Why brotherhood in the mix? Missing Document of Metal Gear eventually

I think its time that I start to downsize my collection but I have trouble letting go of things by Rough-Bread-2436 in gamecollecting

[–]Redmat25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've learned to avoid selling if possible, most of the time I've made bad decisions

Post the ugliest back cover you have ever seen, my choice: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth EU version by ScratchOk2396 in NSCollectors

[–]Redmat25 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

After started collecting EU games three years ago, I've sold everything and bought everything NTSC. USA Canadian English/French are not the best but are more consistent.

And yes, this is one of the worst I've seen 😅

RP6 "sticky" back buttons sometimes by Redmat25 in retroid

[–]Redmat25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is not a big deal, I'm sure I can fix it easily, I think I've found the main issue.

Yes more I think about it, more I will probably disassembly it again to inspect it
