I'm bad at remembering these things so what better than a nifty tightly TechDweeb packaged video to bookmark and return to when opening a new Android handheld. That's extra brain space I don't have to utilize, I got this video instead from now on, thanks TechDweeb! ❤

duuuudeeee. you read my mind, love your content mr mysterious dweed. i reckon you get on the hard shit

Excellent! I have one of these in the mail so I'll come back to this when... Actually I could do this on my RG552, hmmmm

perfect as usually

Finally. I've never emulated before, so much appreciated. How to for PC next? :D

I have Launchbox for PC and Android, but I'm realllllly tempted to switch my RP3+ to Emulation station.

Love your review and guides. I recently purchased a RG556 and this helped me alot. I was wondering do you know if it's possible to link ES to the frontend button on the device?

One thing to note about the Rg556 is that it doesn't charge when docked to hdmi output. No matter what dock or dongle you use, it can either charge or do usb/hdmi output, not both at the same time. Which seriously makes the hdmi output rather limited. You're fighting against the battery life every play session

So regardless of the dongle used, it cannot be loaded and output HDMI?

Would you mind going more in depth over this topic of front ends in a video? I'm interested in making a really nice couch machine but as you mentioned in the video this can be a bit overwhelming. Are there different front ends? Do I need to keep them updated? How do I find updates? Are there any that cut the install process down so I can get to enjoying my games as fast as possible? Sorry for all the questions I'm brand new to this and I would love to learn whatever I can

u should share your images on google drive, it's noob friendly , most gamers don't comprehendo flashing os images or even setting up retroarch, my friends throw down devices like a unsolved rubix cube, lol, sweet tutorial techdweeb, your friend in time and space

You’re doing the lords work

any chance of a tutorial on how to setup on cloud storage for the saves between the steam deck and android like how steam games have?

I just want that animated background on the Android home screen. Is that stock Anbernic or did you add that??

If you’re switching from Daijisho to ES, is it just a matter of getting ES, setting up the folder structure and then moving the files over (obviously needs a bit of tweaking)? I have my rom files on my RP3+ internal storage, is it worth getting an SD card and copying the roms etc. to that in case I want to switch back (I know I should really have them on an SD anyway)? Great video!

@leutnant1010

2 ай бұрын

Yes, get that SD card. You wont regret it. Just choose a decent one. I recommend Samsung Evo or Sandisk Extreme SDXC A2. I just took mine out of the RP3+ to make sure you get the right one.

@LordNuttington

2 ай бұрын

Cheers, one thing I hadn’t considered was that the RP3+ comes with an old version of retro arch that wasn’t fully compatible with ES-DE, so I had to download the latest version and reset up cores, hockeys etc., but fairly easy to do and looking sweet now!

I use retroarch as my frontend but this can be nice

"You gonna watch this video although you know how to d..." "Yep"

Is it possible to have two frontends installed? I'm currently using Daijisho but I am curious to try ES.

Can you show a comparison video of ES, daishio and launchbox

thats pretty neat

how do you go back into ESDE if you're finished with a game? case of just closing the emulator in android task manager?

@TechDweeb

Ай бұрын

Yup, if you close the emulator you should be taken back to ESDE

Emulation-Station is a great piece of software but my experience with it on PC is that screenscraper is always very slow for me. At least compared to how fast launchbox or Daijisho scrape. Might be an issue on my end or being far from the server though.

Struggling here with launching any of these. RA just opens nothing when I try any systems. I didn't have any issues with this on deck but suddenly I'm not having success here.

Does the RG 556 light up like that stock?

Does it work in Dex mode when connecting to a TV/monitor with an HDMI cable? Does it support vertical orientation?

I still don't have a retro handheld. :( Thinking of the Miyoo Mini Plus cause GBA AND GBC carts are getting waay out of control on prices.

Why won’t it play my PlayStation chd files when Daijasho can?

Sir tech dweeb, thank you 🙏🏾

Why Aethersx2, and not Nethersx2?

How well does this work on the rg353v?

Nice as always... But there is a bug or something else? You can't go back to the standard Android? Right?

Try Lemuroid. It's a very simple app to emulate older consoles, but I don't know if it will recognize RP4P's physical buttons. You could map them though.

Me: :> TDW: *YUP*

I don't have patrons because I can't pay

RetroArch IS a frontend, and it's free, and it usually has more options and functions than Emulation Station. ES looks nice but is just a bloated GUI running over top of RetroArcdh. It uses more system resources than just running RetroArch. So ES makes launching the software slower and game performance can also suffer, especially on weak hardware.

@EliasPfaiffer

And u can't go back to the normal Android

But sorry for a question that no one asks: I also have the Anbernic RG556 and there is already my SD with 512GB of roms, ok? To install emulation station, why create another roms folder with a copy of the games I already have? I mean, since I already have the roms on the sd, I can't direct, make ES go and "pick up" the games from the rom folders that I already have, there must be a way to avoid having to create another folder for ES, since there ' s already a pre-existing one? I can't create another folder with another 512 GB of roms (which are already there), it's nonsense, a waste of resources. Thank you for your help and congratulations on the service you provide us.
