Best Chinese emulation handhelds to pick up before new tariffs go into effect?

They're still not in effect? You faggots have been spamming about those for like decade. Wtf.

I wonder if any of them are good up to and including the ps2/gamecube gen, and with nice feeling controls for it.

Does Taco even know what tariffs he's actually implementing?

>>714812963
they keep getting delayed by, wouldnt you know it, two more weeks

are there even any that are worth it over the american options at this point?

>>714814031
What american options?

Steam Deck

>>714814207
steam deck, modretro chromatic, rog ally, idk

Is there a cheap one that can emulate ps1 and n64?

>>714814514
yeah bro, a used PS vita

>>714814363
Ally is chinese and an UMPC, Deck is an UMPC, Chromatic is FPGA. The chinamerican option would be this pile of crap and the MyArcade thing with the knob that will never come out.

>>714814514
Yes, no. Vita can't run N64 either.

>>714812963
We have until August. I have been stocking up on cheap chinesium 1.5" LCDs, ESP32s, and Arduino Pro Mini knockoffs while I can. By the time the next shipment arrives I should have enough bench stock to keep shit running until the new meta for cheap components is found.

I don't know what I am going to do about PCBs. I really relied on JLCPCB to print my Gerbers cheap as fuck. I might have to teach myself another skillset and build a station in my workshop.

>>714814656
Does the vita actually emulates the ps1 or is just compatibility mode? I have a psp and that shit can't even do save states.

>>714812764 (OP)
Steam Deck

>>714814712
i don't really think "contains parts manufactured in china" is the same as "chinese emulation handheld"

>>714812963
There is a reason trump is called TACO (trump always chickens out). They keep getting delayed because mr orange faggot can't get deals.

>>714814878
too big and expensive

>>714814943
How about "company housed in China" and "Chinamen commissioned to design it".

>>714814864
you want save states? yuck. I regret replying to you.

>>714815138
What a cope, the vita is shit and outdated.

Whats the best one that uses linux and has an oled?

>>714815216
everything new and convenient actually sucks extremely hard and robs you of deeper enjoyment and meaning.

>>714815261
By technicality and demanding gymnastics to boot from recovery by holding buttons rather than automatically, RP5 and RPF2 (the Snapdragon one).

>>714815261

Retroid Pocket 5. It even runs Switch games decently

You chink shills are really shitting yourself over these Tariffs huh?

>>714815532
>>714815727
>rp5
Nice. Should I wait for an rp6 or are the numbered upgrades pretty minor?

>>714815876
More like everyone learned that he's a gigantic bitch when he receives even a little pushback

>>714815938
Prolly not, Snapdragons with Linux support are scarce. RPC's brand new chip, for example, is unsupported and might not ever get it.

But again, pain in the ass experience, not what you're imagining. Look up Rocknix.

At least my SD card is all ready to go...

>>714815876
>i love sucking nigger dic- i mean paying more for no reason!

>>714813808
Nope. Japs are joking that he will forget about the 25% tariff he just set by August so they don't give a shit.

>>714815261
The one you make yourself.

I really wanted one for the OLED screen. How fast do they ship?

I'm personally happy with my anbernic rg 406h. It runs a healthy amount of gamecube and ps2 games and even some Switch. Was able to get FF7 New Threat Switch mod working recently.

How is PS2 and Gamecube emulation on the Retroid Pocket 5?

>>714817705
Deck wins

>>714817705
Deck can barely emulate PS3. The first LittleBigPlanet can't stay at 30fps
