Retro Game Corps (Russ) INTERVIEW #2
can with holder android xbox?
Gamesir actually does have an app on the Google Play store that is used to update the firmware. Also, it’s worth mentioning that this controller has Hall Effect joysticks, which makes it very unlikely to drift overtime.
Still love mine! I play it all the time lol! It may not be that fast but for PSX and lower, it's great!
Yup it’s still a winner
I tend to like your content, but I couldn't make it through this one sadly. It's in no way a reflection on you or your guest and maybe I've misinterpreted what this podcast is actually about, but the "content creator" talk is a snooze fest. I understand that getting two youtubers together to chat inevitably gravitates towards talking about making youtube videos, but I'm guessing most of your audience are not content creators and find it unrelatable or uninteresting. Hopefully this isn't coming off the wrong way and is constructive to some degree. Feel free to toss it out the window if I'm off base as well.
I appreciate that feedback!
Question, open for anyone to answer - I ordered one of these from Amazon, and it arrived with the box already opened and the device had debris on it and smudges on the screen. Is this how they're normally shipped? I work in automotive tech manufacturing, and our standards are pretty high (clean rooms, clean environment), so I thought it was a little strange to get a device of this cost arriving in that condition.
No. It’s possible customs opened it but if it’s from Amazon you should have had to deal with that. Maybe send it back.
Thank you for the quick response. I actually just ordered it directly from Retroid, and it ended up being cheaper than Amazon, even after adding some accessories and shipping. Looking forward to messing around with this device. @@adinwalls
But what if I just want a cheap game boy sp to play Kirby on the bus?
Then buy the V90? Or an actual SP
Save the planet a little bit? Bro you buying shit from across the planet. Lmaooooo
Ya I know
Great Review! Got mine in 2020 which was also my first 3rd party pocket console!
Hello. I am planning to purchase this device in the near future. Please tell me which 3D consoles work well on it. I buy it mainly because of the PS2 emulation, but I also plan to get acquainted with Nintendo games.
Hey there. N64 is fine. Most GameCube games work on it, 3DS plays quite well (about 70% of games).
@@adinwalls thanks)))
i think i will just keep my vita2k and o3ds but the way custom handheld is so awesome, i will buy one if boring the R36s
I bought this. And I bought the machenike g5 pro, both for 20 bucks which is insane. The g5 is a MUCH better controller. I'd say.. if you can find a pro controller for less than 30 bucks(which is pretty common), you'll get way more value. But I've seen these go for as low as 14euros. If you just want a cheap controller that just works and looks fire,. Then you can't really go wrong with this one.
the sticks are not that bad if u get a softwear to remap the 8 way diaginals for some reason anbernic always forgets to program them they only program analogs 4 way lol they can go 8 ways doe and also open it up and upgrade the wifi ship then its basiclly like a switch stream eevrything i play fortnite palworld cod and even battle grounds on my 556
the 556 is 140$ now it didnt sell well
Hello! Did I hear correctly that you used the 8bitdo ultimate 2.4? I have the same controller - did you just connect via Bluetooth (D mode) or though a dongle adaptor?
Excellent review. I’ve been going back and forth between these two devices and you really made my decision easier. Although I’m only looking for emulation abilities up to N64/PS1/Dreamcast. I should be good to go with the 556 for that right?
Hey yes it’ll play all those well.
I always knew your English was too good to be a non native speaker but always thought your accent had a German twang. Mystery solved Iol. Love your videos!
Hehe. Thanks for watching
I have a question about 8bitdo 2.4ghz. This guy in the video claims the new firmware version 2 enables Bluetooth mode. Is that true? ruclips.net/video/VnanvaH7B10/видео.htmlsi=i0QsfwhPOwnZdKra
Just bought one through your link, thanks mate. 😊
Thank you!
$25!? Jesus! Given the Canadian dollar is so bad compared to the US, I think I'm gonna pick this up! BUT! Is the rumble that bad? For me it's kinda important since I love my racing games and the feedback I get from em. Back paddles not really a deal breaker for me since I have none on my Xbox One S controller. Great review once again. Oh I gotta ask, your video's always end so abruptly, ever gonna put an outro video or something? Got a Patreon and put some people up there?
The rumble isn’t great I must admit. I just got a GuliKit controller in and they’ve got some fancy tech for the rumble and it’s really nice.
My abrupt endings are mostly to keep video engagement high. But lately I’ve been adding bloopers at the end for some fun.
@@adinwalls Ahhh good to know, thanks!. Think I'll skip. Kai Retro Gaming recently did a controller review and I think I'll go with that one. The EasySMX X05.
@@adinwalls Ahhh gotcha!
can it run fightcade?
have input lag on wireless ?
Nothing noteable.
@@adinwalls thx 🙏🏼
It’s so cool seeing another guy from South Africa in this hobby lol there aren’t many 😂🇿🇦🔥
I am a unicorn 😂
I know this is a little late, but I agree. I really like the 4 Pro, but the ergonomics are what have been holding me back. I don't really care about a better screen.
I think I probably would have preferred the RP4 Pro due to the extra power (I fall under scenario #2 due to having a Steam Deck and MM+) but the difference in pricing between the two forced my hand into getting the RG556. RG556 I was able to find for $155 via AliExpress, while the cheapest I could get the RP4 Pro was $240 from Retroid's site (cheapest shipping option to my state cost $40 -_-). The small difference in library playability of the PS2/GC wasn't worth an extra 50%/$85 in price to me. With neither being exactly endgame (Odin 2 isn't endgame for me either) I am cool with kicking the can down the road.
Wow, who would have thought that a RUclips series about retro handhelds and emulation could make you tear up :p I loved the conversation about how an addictive personality doesn't always equal negative addictions like drugs or alcohol. We can become addicted to nearly anything, honestly. When I quit drinking, I became addicted to healthy eating and exercise. My weight was already dropping due to lack of alcohol, but I ended up blowing out my knee because of the amount of running and exercising I was doing. You two are great and I want to thank you both for everything you do!
My wife picked up my Steam Deck just to check it out. Shortly after she decided it was hers now, so I had to buy a second. Less than a year later the OLED was announced, so I gave my LCD to my son and ordered the OLED. Now there are three Decks in this house, and every member of this family are fully Decked out.
lol. Sounds delightful. I really enjoy the Steamdeck.
Now, The reason I found you is the review for the Retroid Pocket 4 Pro, AND I just bought a pair of Viture Pro's! I'd love to see how they work together! Btw after these two videos, I'm absolutley subscribed. You're an eloquent, well thought and approachable reviewer - kudos. Looking forward to future videos!
Hey man thank you!
I've watched countless videos about the RP4Pro and yours was the one I liked the most, mainly because I chose the same color as yours, and you influenced me to buy the black grip. This combination was amazing! I will even follow your ultimate setup guide video to configure my RP4 as soon as I arrive at my house. Great video, great editing, you are very charismatic and speak very well. Thanks for the video. I'm definitely subscribed to the channel.
Thank you! My setup guide is quite exhaustive so take it in small bites 😊 but I love going back to my RP4 because of how I set it up.
Nikita Kologrivy started to retro game 😂
Hehe. I feel like we need an AI that updates us everytime someone joins the retro gaming world.
Less talking and more games showcasing
lol. No
Honestly, if I wasn't in a cash crunch right now, I'd probably buy this watching your video, even without all the nitty gritty details. They look a little small for your head though, not sure how it'll fit mine. Great review! Edit: Looking forward to the full review.
Hey Kyle, ya they are a bit narrow. You’ll notice all the models have skinny faces 😊 but I must say as these products go this is the least offensive looking so far, I’m not sure I’d be brave enough to wear them in a coffee shop but the practicality of it all may just push me over the edge. Watching media is cool and all, but the best experience I have had is with my laptop doing work, I struggle with focus and it really helps me keep on track.
@@adinwalls Lol! Yeah they all do have narrow heads, would be great if they had 2 sizes though, but I understand all the work that'll be needed. Agreed for being the least offensive. Your best case scenario is exactly what I'd want it for, productivity. I'd love to have a multiscreen desktop environment without all the screens, ya know? Lightroom in multiple monitors, photoshop on another.
I love this controller i rarely use it cuz i only got it for my mobile or cloud gaming 😂 but when i do use it its fine if anyone is having trigger or stick problems out of the box DONT RETURN it yet try to calibrate it through the app mine works great if you keep your expectations in check and know what youre getting itll be great you honestly cant find a better controller at this price with good hall effect sensors gamesir has been killing it lately
Hey man thank for that. Yes a quick calibration usually sorts most issues out.
Thanks for this! Good to know!
I just ordered this model of the RG556 with 256gb sd card to the UK from aliexpress for £155 including VAT. The retroid pocket pro 4 is £240 including VAT. Easy choice 😁
Yes that’s a no brainier.
I am loving these interviews! Please keep them going!
Thank you!
Good content. Your accent is very pleasing to hear😂
Hehe awesome thank you
Spends almost 3 minutes talking about the sticks having a problem, never once mentions what that problem actually is? Did i just miss it?
Does it have a mic?
I don’t think so.
Was probably going to pass on this device but then just got it on aliexpress for $55 shipped. Couldn't resist at that price.
Definitely one of the value kings of the year
Love the screen on it ! I think thst the miyo mini + is so good is because of the d pad and overall great controls and quality :)
Yes agreed. Miyoo Mini Plus has a better dpad. I like the action buttons on both.
"It has... things!" 🤣🤣🤣 No, but seriously, that looks dope!
Haha. Yes. The design award still belongs to 8bitdo in my opinion but the functionality, the feeling of the buttons and sticks, definitely beats 8bitdo and rivals the Xbox controller
Great show guys, I second Bill’s recommendation of Firewatch. If you liked Edith Finch (which takes place not far from where I grew up!), then Firewatch is a great complement to that experience.
Hey Russ, okay great. I will play Firewatch next. I love that whole Edith Finch world, so cozy.
Buy Flydigi apex 4, and enjoy gaming.
I have heard they’re good. Well I have to say this GuliKit is very well put together. The rumble motor is so good! And they’ve just straight up copied the Xbox trigger configuration which I think is brilliant. Plastics are nice, it connects to everything. There are a couple of negatives, like the initial understanding of how it works is quite confusing but other than that I can’t see many negatives.
Previous GK controller developed stick drift in about 2 months so I am very sceptical about this one 😅
That’s not good to hear. This thing seems very well put together though.
@@adinwalls yeah the previous one was built well, felt even better than xbox series elite controller. But in the end the left stick started to drift and I had to set deadzone much higher to the point that it stopped being precise as it was before.
What is this compatible with
Pretty much everything.
@@adinwalls new gen Xbox?
Looks good so far, I have been liking RGB lighting around joysticks lately. 🍻
Same
Anbernic is the new Nintendo, Powkiddy is the new PlayStation.
It is
That was exactly what I said. It's the best because of the screen, but the buttons suck 😂best and worst at the same time. Now my retroid pocket 2 is my all time fav until Odin 2 mini arrives
