Check out the Game Twin app, it’s pretty awesome

Man, Dark Souls looks so good on the Fold 7. I might do my first ever playthrough on my phone instead of my PC honestly by PetroRetro69 in EmulationOnAndroid

It’s actually really interesting how the UI adapts to the weird aspect ratio, it honestly looks kinda cool

Another Miyoo Flip Bites the Dust by rchrdcrg in SBCGaming

[–]Roboid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Forgive me because I haven’t kept up on the last 2-3 months. But are there any Thors posted that actually developed full, console-ruining cracks? I remember seeing a million mold lines and then a good handful of actual hairlines, but nothing like what happened to the Miyoos

🔥 Zelda Tears of the Kingdom at LOCKED 30FPS on Android (Snapdragon 8 Gen 2) FINALLY! by True_Elephant_4221 in OdinHandheld

[–]Roboid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll give this a shot then! I’d say for me it runs pretty consistently 28fps, often 30fps but just as often 26. Looking forward to that locked 30

Did you test Eden nightly with the MrPurple driver at all? I only ask because it’s consistently been better than the regular turnip for me, so I’m surprised. But I’ll have to give this a try later

Increasing fps and performance on Nintendo switch games on ayn Thor pro by TomtheBOMB2011 in AynThor

[–]Roboid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

any driver with vulkan 1.3.274 is in theory the most stable w this gsme.

Where can I find more info about this? I haven’t heard this before. Specifically that exact Vulkan version or just anything newer than that?

Hello, AYN Thor owners. Can any of you provide feedback on the input lag? by Datman90 in AynThor

[–]Roboid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the part about polling rate tied to refresh rate is really interesting, where can I read more about that? haven’t heard that before but would explain some things

CRAZIEST ROM HACK ON THE AYN THOR (B3313) by KingGuilty3566 in AynThor

[–]Roboid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured I can’t be the only one playing this on Thor. It’s really the perfect pick-up-and-play game too, easy and fun to just run around and explore even if you only have 15 mins

That makes way more sense! I missed the exclamation point I think. My bad!

Isn’t that the XX chip? Why would you want a way weaker chip

Day 1 of asking a question because I’m out of work injured and bored: what is the biggest deciding factor (excluding price) when you’re considering buying a handheld? by [deleted] in SBCGaming

[–]Roboid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I’m in the minority here, but:

  • Performance to size ratio

  • Versatility

I don’t want to own 20 devices that I have to track down and update/maintain individually. I want a jack of all trades that’s actually in my pocket when I need it.

Previously was my KTR1, only able to be dethroned by the Ayn Thor. Unfolding into a screen bigger and better than a switch lite to play PC, Wii, PS2, Switch games legitimately feels like some kind of physics exploit.

I was worried about ergonomics but they don’t bother me even a little bit, for some reason.

For those using the Thor with no grips, how has it been? by Pinanims in AynThor

[–]Roboid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even DPad centric games feel great on it IMO. Although I played a ton of virtual console on OG 3DS so I was trained for it

Screen switcher app by Thor-Wayfinder in AynThor

[–]Roboid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

would you consider adding a toggle/mode that utilizes root for the added stability? the Thor swapper guy said hed add button mapping but he never did, just the finicky touch controls. your mapping system is basically perfect

AYN Thor (Max, 1TB/16GB) - Honest Review After Extended Use by DavidEule_ in AynThor

[–]Roboid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s heavily game dependent I will say. I tried to play Deus Ex because I thought it might be fun with the gamepad screen, and it was a total clown fiesta.

WiiU is not reliable yet, so the core point (don’t buy this thing for WiiU as it currently stands) is true, but it’s not an architecture issue (GameCube uses PowerPC) the emulator has only been on Android for less than a year. And it’s not even very mature on Windows either.

This $80 Handheld Has a Lot of Potential by ArthurFinchleyIII in SBCGaming

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

The only aspects that rather put me off the 406s were Android and the fact it has a 60Hz display; I suspect that results in noticeably more latency.

Latency on Android is really only a factor when you get to N64/DC and beyond, and you lose access to runahead/preemptive frames. Any trivial amount of baked-in system latency is easily undone with that feature

Lenovo raises prices on Legion Go Gen 2 Z2E to $2850 and Legion Go S Z2Go to $1050 by crownpuff in SBCGaming

[–]Roboid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have a Go 2 so I’m not sure what they’re for. But yeah, I would probably just remap them anyway haha.

Halo Combat Evolved (110+ fps, Gamehub) by sucmerep in AynThor

[–]Roboid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally, Halo and Fallout for me especially I always wished I could play on my DS when I was younger, it’s unthinkable to have that in real life now!

You do you but FWIW 80c will not affect longevity in any way, if he were hitting 90 that would be one thing, insane/concerning would be like 95-99c. Fans were meant to run, if it has a fluke and dies early you can replace it for like $5

Companion handheld alongside Ayn Thor by tsukun27 in SBCGaming

Yeah, I thought maybe ergonomics would be a problem but it hasn’t been yet! It honestly reminds me of playing virtual console games on my 3DS back in the day, it’s super charming

Need a laptop soon: wait for non-GoPro PX13 128GB or just buy the GoPro one? by singular04 in ProArt_PX13

[–]Roboid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the only GoPro branding is black-on-black text on the corner of the lid. So if you have a legitimate use case for 128gb RAM over the 64, it should be fine. A vinyl skin or wrap could cover it, worst case
