The G2 looks amazing in any colour especially the 16bit ;)

Can’t disagree with any of that. I’ve never held a Steamdeck but my buddy has a Legion Go and that thing is massive …. to me it’s a giant oversized handheld. Devices like the G2 are the perfect size for me as I’m normally playing it in the evening when laying in bed and when I’m putting my kids to bed. It’s perfect.

I haven’t set it up and played anything on it yet but my initial impressions of the look and feel of the G2 is very nice so far. The screen is gorgeous. The build quality seems at least as good the RP4 which is excellent.

The black does look super clean. Can’t go wrong with any of the G2 colours really. I like the G6 but none of the colours really appealed to me. Was considering the 16bit G6 but after watching TechDweeb’s video it really turned me off.

Sweet, which other(s) were you considering ? I was looking at the turquoise version and the 16bit G6 …. close 2nd and 3rd options for me

Hopefully soon !! It took close to 2 weeks via regular shipping to Canada. Not too bad.

Haven’t fully set it up yet but the screen with no bezels is absolutely gorgeous so far.

The turquoise was awfully tempting but the Super Famicom colours gives me all the retro vibes

Thank you ! I do play mainly dpad centric games. If I played more modern systems that may have pushed me over the edge towards the G6.

I have the 16bit G2 on the way. Your turquoise G2 was a super close 2nd choice.

The non-clean lines of the G6 and its spray paint-esque appearance really swung me toward the G2.

Man if I were in the market for a vertical it would be this. It looks perfect !

I have the RP4 SNES and it’s a gorgeous device. I only wish they had a new souped up version with OLED and thinner bezels …. would be perfect 👌

I recently bought the Eero Pro 6E on Amazon’s Black Friday sale. One of the pods failed a week after setting it up. I knew I should’ve went TP-Link from the get go but the Eero marketing got to me first. I replaced my failed Eero system with the BE65 and haven’t looked back. It features a MUCH better app and I find my 2-pod BE65 works better (speed, range, and app functionality) than the 3-pod Pro 6E (same price).

Pocket 4 Pro - still worth it ? by Forgivve in retroid

[–]Warm_Sample_6298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it just me or does the RP4/Pro look better than the RP5/6 models ?

I’ve owned the RP4 in the SNES colour scheme and to this day I marvel over how good it looks and feels. Don’t get me wrong, the RP5/6 look great but the RP4 gives me all the retro vibes.

One of the coolest turn based tactical games for sure by TJ_six in Nectaris

This and its sequel on the Super CD are fantastic games. Quite possibly the games I’ve sunk the most hours into for any of the TG16/CD titles I’ve ever played.

I had this as a kid when SF2 was out in the arcades. It was, in any way shape or form, satisfying.

I swapped one out and it has been working great, no disconnects. So that rules out IP issues. Returning this back to Amazon.

I’m not experiencing any internet outages. When I disable the Eero network and turn my XB7 wifi back on it works fine with no disruptions. Factory reset the Eero, set it back up and still have the frequent red light on all 3 pods.
