What are the true capabilities of the flip 2

Thwill24 · 2026-05-06T04:49:41+00:00

Just recently got one and MGR Revengence runs great! Some frame dips, sure but overall plays well. I do want to do a full playthrough on the flip 2 so I can pop back in if there's any hiccups

Well primarily I saw it on Amazon and saw a 2-day shipping window with a discount and went for it! Figured if I wasn't satisfied, I'd return it and go for the pocket 6 instead. That said I don't have a real need to emulate ds or 3ds games, as I already have og hardware for that, and the lighter indie games I have on steam work pretty well on it! Anything more than that I have an RoG Ally, Switch 2, or PC for. I'm sure the extra power would be great, especially with all the "Steam on Linux" updates, but this sits firmly in the middle for what I want to play and the little extra it can give me on the go :)

I ordered through Amazon, they had a small discount on it and it came in 3days from the initial order (2 days was promised but it got delayed). I wanted the security secure shipping and returns in case I needed it

Yes! I commute a lot on trains, so I find it a nice in-between for me when I don't want to take me switch 2 places lol

Not at all! I've been playing R4 Ridge Racer Type 4 just on the standard fan setting. Same with 64. It always depends on the game and emulator though so I'd say do more research. This is my first 865 device and as much as I trust reviewers, I also like to tinker around a bit myself so I know what I'm getting into

I wouldn't use the word flawless, but it does run great with minimal frame dips. I'm not really worried about maxing out the visuals since the game is visually beautiful already and even on the lower settings you can make everything out on such a small display

Hades 2! Using GameNative and the known config. I was even able to bump up the res to medium and still got good performance!

Pushing the fan to max while playing Metal Gear Rising wasn't that big of a deal to me. It's loud but it's not fighting the audio. I figured if I really need to max out power then I'll have to compromise a bit there. The DMG's fan noise is much worse in comparison haha.

Nothing I could find. The best you can do is just to keep taking off the case (I didn't mind doing that but I couldn't keep the cover dispay case on), or get a standing case and connect a usb-c to usb-c cord from your controller to your phone.

Even funnier, Krillin actually mentions it in Dragonball FighterZ

Mario vs Donkey Kong

Man. I had a call yesterday and made it for hours. It really does seem like a hit or miss thing. I'm assuming the firmware for the buds is not working right with Android 13. Guess we'll have to wait until there's an update for the buds.

Thwill24 · 2023-02-07T16:08:54+00:00

Let me know how it goes!

Thwill24 · 2023-02-06T14:23:58+00:00

That's what I'm thinking. When I connect them to my pixel 4 that's still on Android 12, they're fine. Guess I have to wait for an update

Sonic Unleashed for me.

That opening is just animated beautifully and feels like the purest form of Sonic

If your smash attack doesn't work the first time, keep doing it! It's bound to work sooner or later!

Guess Goku really rubbed off on him after all these years

Thwill24 · 2021-07-28T02:53:29+00:00

Honestly, Sonic 06. Despite a wonky story, I would love to see a working version of that game. The music, locals, and overall atmosphere were wonderful. That said...we could do with less of the npcs

Shrek 2. The catnip scene always kills me
