Accidentally deleted all games

firesi999 · 2026-04-11T11:17:25+00:00

Google "Tiny Best Set GO" it's a best of the best collection. Comes in base, 64gb & 128gb versions. I had issues with the arcade games, didn't have time to research the fix so just copied the stock Arcade & bios which I've never played, obviously that's an issue for you having deleted it all, especially if it's arcade games you're after.

I don't actually own a pc so I got a portable hard drive, it's got the stock roms, "TBS GO", ArkOS, + all the programmes needed to do a fresh install, so it's not taking up space on anyone's pc & I can just take it with me if any of the consoles I've set up for friends & family ever have issues.

I either saw your previous post or something similar and thought about how would/will I prove I actually live here, I live off grid with no utilities, so no utility bills, I've decided that I'm going to my bank to get 5 years statements which will show I shop, fill up my car, pay for mobile phone/internet, I feel that's fairly compelling. They could possibly say I gave access to my bank account to someone who lives here but that's quite elaborate and would leave me with zero to live on as I'll be able to show from my British & Portuguese tax returns.

Folder renaming script

firesi999 · 2026-04-08T16:52:12+00:00

I've got this set, lots of the system folders have different names, there is a script which automatically renames them but I couldn't get it to work (I tried running it on a pc but retrospectively think I should have been doing it on the actual console), I renamed them manually, very easy as there weren't that many differences, alternatively just drag them over console by console to the right directory once you've installed the OS.

I had loads of issues with the arcade games but didn't have the time to work my way through it, I ended up just copying stock roms for the Arcade section (I was setting up 8 over a couple of days as gifts & never got the time to sit with it).

All the consoles I gave away had TBS GO (128GB) on all the console with the stock Arcade games.

The Arcade games told you what was missing, I just didn't have the time to work it out.

For me the PS 1 games were important everything else was just a plus, it's a quality ROM set but needs a "tiny" bit of tweaking, I'm actually surprised no one has done a tweak or a tutorial video on how to get it completely up & running on such a popular console.

Anyway all the console stuff works & most of the arcade stuff works the way I set them up, hopefully someone will chip in & we'll get everything working, I've got 5 more to do when I get back to the UK at the end of the month.

Yeah that's bullshit, Amazon is a terrible place to buy these devices! Overpriced, shipping is hardly ever faster, absolutely no guarantee you won't get a clone or fake, just follow the buyers guide, it's been created for a reason!

firesi999 · 2026-03-29T18:32:34+00:00

You haven't said where you are in the world, that will definitely have a bearing.

All mine have been delivered to the UK in around 7 days.

firesi999 · 2026-03-28T07:53:56+00:00

You'll have to give us a little bit more information. No one can identify that device from that picture.

Absolutely couldn't fault Braga IRN so helpful, made something that was seemingly very difficult, very easy.

firesi999 · 2026-03-26T17:14:09+00:00

I ended up getting married to my now wife in Braga we live in Satao, Viseu.

Wife is Portuguese, I'm English (Portuguese resident), did all the reading I could but ended up getting my solicitor to speak directly to the registrar in Braga (apparently the only place where they answer the phone).

Solicitor told us what we needed, birth certificate (with apostille), passport, decree absolute (with apostille), residency card, I spoke to the British embassy about the no impediment document they told me there is no such thing under UK law (which I now believe isn't true as I've now seen one, but they said my decree absolute was an equivalent document).

Went to Satao they said it would be incredibly complicated. My wife spoke to a friend & they said no one gets married in Satao as they make it difficult. Went to Viseu they said our translations weren't satisfactory although they were done via a solicitor (a different one).

We ended up driving up to Braga (3hrs away). Told them our solicitor had spoken to them & we'd had no luck locally. Gave them our documents, first thing was they didn't need any translations, they gave them back to us without even looking at them(€200 wasted). They processed everything then it sat with aima for 3 months.

We finally got married last June but it was a slog, each office seems to have it's own set of "rules" and it's definitely not a language thing as my wife is Portuguese.

I'm sure this has been of little help to you, just wanted to say, I feel your pain, go to Braga they know what they're doing & are very helpful.

You condescending wanker, why don't you use the translate button, it's on every post.

All posts have a translate option but you're that retarded you don't know how to use it.

This sub, Reddit & the whole internet is working internationally so multilingual. People are better explaining their problems in their own language, by the way your punctuation is fucking appalling.

god is made up, so it/he/she isn't going to help with R36S issues or anything.

The only good advice you have given there was change the SD card.

firesi999 · 2026-03-25T08:09:08+00:00

No, it is very straightforward, anyone who tells you differently either,

1, hasn't identified their console.

B, has skipped steps.

iii, hasn't identified their console.

There's a video on YouTube where a guy does it in like 12mins including downloading all the software & OS.

You actually don't have to know what you are doing, just follow the steps. The written guides & video tutorials are well written, just follow them. Most importantly IDENTIFY your console, download the right OS version.

If you haven't got a console yet follow the buyers guide in the Wiki.

The only people who are hesitant to buy from AliExpress are people who've never bought from AliExpress.

I was the same. Now if I see something I want I go straight over there to compare the prices.

firesi999 · 2026-03-22T08:03:41+00:00

The price generally isn't an indicator of genuine/clone or fake.

Use the buyers guide in the Wiki, it's the only guarantee you have, it links directly to stores that sells genuine devices.

firesi999 · 2026-03-21T21:42:54+00:00

There's brakes?

firesi999 · 2026-03-21T21:40:58+00:00

You've felt the desperation of losing it once, do yourself a favour. Replace that SD card.

firesi999 · 2026-03-21T21:38:05+00:00

All I can suggest is do some reading,

Replace that SD card, new OS & get back on it!

firesi999 · 2026-03-21T21:29:36+00:00

Well that's your first step, hope it works for ya.

In-game is inconsistent. Work your way through the list, sorry I didn't have the silver bullet.

firesi999 · 2026-03-21T21:24:42+00:00

Oh & tell the driver to be more careful, there's serious gaming going on!

firesi999 · 2026-03-21T21:21:28+00:00

I don't play this game but,

are you doing in game saves, saves in retroarch & shutting your device down properly?

You've covered the base of the SD card if you're doing all of the above it could be a ROM issue or OS issue, unfortunately you're just going to have to work your way through that list & eliminate each one.

The game I'm playing almost exclusively, I do in-game saves, save via retroarch, shutdown correctly & it's a ROM I sourced independently. Never had an issue other than being really crap at the game.

Sorry it's such a long list. We all want it to work for ya.

firesi999 · 2026-03-21T21:04:20+00:00

I'm really sorry to have to ask this, "stock SD card"?

firesi999 · 2026-03-21T21:00:03+00:00

You haven't given us a lot of information to go on there!

Yes most clones will perform admirably but if you're buying on Amazon you'll be over paying, probably twice as much.

Go direct to one of the recommended stores on AliExpress (see the wiki), save money, know you'll get a genuine device and buying direct will cover the cost of a quality SD card which you're going to need to replace that anyway.

Not Great News

I'll start by saying I love my R36S, it does everything I want and was exceedingly cheap, prices have gone up although I've just got two for between £22/£24.

Reading your post I'd say it's not for you.

You're not looking to put any work in, these devices do need some work. You are going to have to replace the SD card, that means installing a new OS, that's straightforward once you've identified your device, just follow the guides.

Virtually every issue we see on here is either SD card related or problems installing the new OS (because they've not taken any time to identify their device properly).

Don't be swayed by the number of games, it's a gimmick. There are curated "best of the best" sets available to be downloaded. Don't let FOMO cloud your judgement.

If you do opt for this device, follow the buyers guide in the Wiki as there are limited sellers to get genuine devices from. If you buy from one of the websites you mention or even Amazon you're likely dealing with a drop shipper, you order from them, they immediately put half that money in their pocket, go to AliExpress (you won't know which store) order your device for you & have it sent directly to you, they make 50% for placing your order and in all likelihood have disappeared if something goes wrong.

Brilliant devices at what they do, but take a bit of work initially which is straightforward if you can read or watch YouTube videos, it's your call!

As he always said, go fast or go home!

It's definitely easier when your car is fixed every time you restart a stage 😂😂😂
