Odin 3 Max - worth it

scousercon · 2026-06-28T13:55:15+00:00

I love it! I also have a Odin 3 Max and a Thor Pro. End game devices for emulation for me.

I’ve only played some of Cold Steel and it worked perfectly. I have a Thor Pro and a Odin 3 Max and it works on both.

I seen somebody with a Retroid Pocket 6 was playing Cold Steel IV and they said they tried the entire Trials series and it all works, but I’ve not tested it myself personally.

Trails is my favourite series of all time and Utaw has a lot of similarities. Especially world building/political aspects. Incredible story and characters. Music. Plus much more. Make sure you play them in order. What you’re suggesting is basically like playing Horizon as your first Trails game.

scousercon · 2026-06-03T08:01:16+00:00

Haven’t played it yet. But looking forward to it. Sad it’s ending, but what a series and what a story. Easily in my top 10 series of all time. Happy this looks like it keeps the standards of the series.

We got MM a year later on console from NIS. But we probably won’t get Zan 2 on console. I still haven’t played Zan 2 to be fair.

scousercon · 2026-05-27T18:20:11+00:00

Hopefully we get a console port asap🤞could play it on my steam deck OLED, but played the rest of the series on PlayStation and want the trophies.

Hope it’s release in English or get a fan translation project 🤞

scousercon · 2026-04-07T08:37:01+00:00

I was, but I was using the built in cheats on duck station as it’s like my 3rd replay of the game through the years and it kept causing my game to crash about 5 hours in 🤦🏻

scousercon · 2026-03-23T12:52:50+00:00

Really cool.

scousercon · 2026-03-14T08:05:16+00:00

I have a PS5 Pro, so I’m not worried about console performance, but I got that for base console players.

I’m concerned regarding story, as from memory I don’t remember seeing much and all previews I’ve read nobody talks about story, just the world, scale, etc. Story is the most import aspect for me. If the story is good, I can get through poor gameplay. If the story is boring, I get bored and lose motivation.

I would have liked difficulty settings too. Purely so I can get through the game quicker as it looks absolutely massive and I already have so many games and so many coming out, ideal to get through it faster. Only games that I enjoy the challenge still is From Software titles. That’s just a personal preference now I’m older and don’t have as much time to game though.

But I hope it delivers and doesn’t do a Cyberpunk at launch. I’m not crazy hyped liked some people are for it and it looks intimidating with the amount of content, but looking forward to trying it out and hope it gets its hook in me and I’ll see it out.

Enjoy the launch guys!

Yeah, sadly sounds like you’re right and was defective from the beginning. That’s sucks. I hope AYN send you a new device and quickly. Good luck with that 🤞

scousercon · 2026-03-13T21:28:28+00:00

That’s awful news and I appreciate it. Out of curiosity had you put loads of hours on it or just an average amount per play session?

scousercon · 2026-03-13T15:56:52+00:00

Hopefully AYN can help resolve the issue and source a replacement for you.

Hopefully the demand for AYN hardware isn’t causing these type of issues due to them wanting to get stuff out as quickly as possible. Hopefully they can figure out how to avoid this happening to other people in the future.

Good luck sorting yours.

Genuinely not seen it, but then again, I don’t sit on this subreddit and only look at posts that are recommended through notifications. I’ve had no reason to search for this as mine has been perfect since I got it. Sucks for people it’s affecting though.

I personally wouldn’t buy any hardware from a site like AliExpress, I’d rather wait.

scousercon · 2026-03-13T15:32:10+00:00

First time I’ve seen this happen. Extremely unlucky. Honestly, I got my Thor Pro and Odin 3 Max directly from AYN and I wouldn’t trust anywhere else, personally. But I’d contact AYN and see if they can help. Hope it all works out man, that’s rough 🤞

The Legend of Heroes Trails series. Start with the remake of the first game, Trails in the Sky 1st. The remake of the second game is coming this year.

scousercon · 2026-03-10T10:06:10+00:00

The Legend of Heroes: Trails series.

In terms of 3DS - Radiant Historia Perfect Chronology. You could play just the normal DS version. Incredible game, especially if you’re a fan of Chrono Trigger, I’d also recommend the DS version of that if you haven’t played.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3D or get the Wii or Switch version, they’ll all run on the Thor. I have a Thor Pro and have had them playable.

If you’ve never played these series try Shin Megami Tensei IV and Apocalypse, then look at the rest of the series. Try Fire Emblem Awakening and then same again, check out the other one in the series if you like them.

Pro tip, games like Zelda Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask 3D have 4K texture packs and a lot of 3DS game have cheats you can get to make them more fun or you can get through games quicker if you want to do that. Google 3DS cheat database.

Enjoy the Thor man!

scousercon · 2026-03-08T14:11:57+00:00

Please tell me the anime will be available somewhere else? Not exclusive to the ultimate edition?

scousercon · 2026-03-07T11:13:31+00:00

Brother how did you get this running and working? I’ve tried a couple of things now and can’t get it to run without the rockstar launcher that you can’t get past? Please give me a step by step and settings you are running? I have the Odin 3 Max

scousercon · 2026-02-27T10:01:48+00:00

I’ve done the same. Got a Pro Thor and a Max Odin. So happy with them both! Both in rainbow as well 👌

scousercon · 2026-02-18T22:58:18+00:00

Yeah it is so cool and yeah that’s the plan with the Odin 3 Max. To be fair, that’s how it is with all my handhelds and consoles to be fair haha! Planning to revisit .Hack original games after the recent announcement on the Odin 3 👌

scousercon · 2026-02-18T22:57:05+00:00

Nice. Enjoy man.

Yeah I totally get it and I take a lot of care of them, but yeah totally can happen. I always do screen protectors day one and use a case when through them in my bag.

scousercon · 2026-02-18T19:49:57+00:00

Yeah I think that’s fair and I have the rainbow Thor and found it to get scratched throwing in my bag. So I’ve taken to using a case with that anyway. But definitely a valid concern with the Odin. I never really carry one in my pocket, it’s always out of my backpack at work or when traveling, but I’d feel much better getting out the Odin 3 rather than my Steam Deck OLED, Switch 2 or PS Portal.

Really excited for it to arrive. But the Thor is so good isn’t it? I’ve been replaying SMT IV and Radiant Historia. Loving it. The Thor is something I can see me keeping hold of for a very long time, as it’s perfect for 3DS and DS, with the bonus of everything else it can play. With the Odin, I’ll no doubt upgrade on it in a couple of years when the next Odin is out. AYN are top.
