Would you mind making a dedicated thread about that handheld, repo? I'm genuinely curious if it's any good or not.
I'm curious what you've been able to run on it.

I just got a Retroid as well. A thread might be nice. I have not kept up with emulation and I'm a touch confused.

Which one? Like I said I'm rocking a 3 Plus.

As for emulation, some shit is idiot-proof, but you end up needing to know more complex terminology for more recent consoles. With PS2, I'm using AetherSX2, whose developer sadly abandoned due to being harassed. GameCube and Wii can be decently emulated on the 3 Plus with Dolphin, though there's a fork called Dolphin for Handhelds that tries to balance compatibility and performance.

I've also had luck with PSP emulation using PPSSPP. Even ran the God of War games.

There's a load of spreadsheets out there that detail compatibility with PSP, Dreamcast, GameCube, Wii, PS2, Saturn, N64 and Android games.

One of my best friends, my roommate, committed suicide this weekend. I don't really know what to say. I miss him already. Please check in on your loved ones.

Sorry for your loss, Megas. It's so tough losing a loved one. Try to keep your head up and always open to chat if you need someone to talk to.
