Anbernic is releasing a new emulation handheld called RG34XX. Here are the details:
- Supported Platforms: Over 30, including PSP, N64, DS, DOS, Dreamcast, PS1, etc.
- Screen: 3.4-inch IPS with a resolution of 720x480
- OS: 64-bit Linux
- Features: 5G Wi-Fi, HDMI-out, and Bluetooth 4.2
The RG34XX will be available in four colours: indigo, green transparent, red transparent, and black.
What do you think about the fact that they’ve mimicked the design of the GBA so closely?
@chunkystyles @rozlav The boot time is indeed kind of annoying. Seems like there ought to be some way to save a memory image, and reload it on startup, and avoid a proper boot.
I just got a pi zero 2w, and read somewhere that they boot faster than the v1 pi zero. We’ll see.
But the solution may just be to have a decent battery, and try not to let it ever get to 0%.
Honestly, just get a retail unit of some kind. Unless you’re just extremely picky, and one doesn’t exist that meets your criteria. The devices on the market these days absolutely blow away anything based on a raspberry pi. And they’ll be cheaper.
@chunkystyles I’m not doing this for practical reasons!
I hacked/rooted/jailbroke or whatever you want to call it a 3DS and that’s now my emulation device for GB family games.
(It’s a big process; Nintendo naturally didn’t make it easy; took most of an evening, but the result was a pretty good device for copying ROMs onto and playing them).
So more just as a project? Projects are fun, for sure.
