This looks like a very good handheld for retro games that dont use analog controls.
Damn, I was already sold with the Sega controller. Wow, what a nostalgia ride with that controller comfort! Even the performance is quite impressive!

Yeah S model $99 it's a nice price. The money we pay for these devices are crazy. At this point they are getting better and cheaper.
I bought this and very happy with it. Mostly wanted to play capcom fighting games so the 6 button layout works very well.
Great video! I bought the Arc D version. I’ve been playing Streets of Rage 2 on a daily since I’ve gotten this 😂

@@achirasilva2567 not really! I don’t play a lot of games on that device that actually require it
I got the ARC D just because I needed that gorgeous Japanese saturn colorway in my life and I've been loving it. I was really surprised how well Saturn plays straight out of the box, and kind of the whole out of the box experience has been great. Even the larger buttons have that slightly dull thunk that you get with original genesis and Saturn buttons, though that may just be incidental and not something they were trying to emulate. It's a second device, I already have the 353P for my Nintendo and other games, this one I have strictly dedicated to Sega games because the form factor makes my Sega kid heart happy. At the pricepoimt without games, it's a little easier to justify as a second device. Going to spend some time this weekend printing the awesome Sega genesis carrying case that someone modeled and posted for this. Glad to see you're getting the same kind of enjoyment from it that I am. :)
I bought the arc D 🤘🏾
This console looks beautiful. I love the Sega Genesis and they were clearly inspired by the Genesis controller. I recently got the Anbernic RG353V but I do want to get this one someday and when I do Bubsy for the Genesis will be the first game I play on it (and I own up to it)
Awesome as always I love mine been playing it for about a week now got the all black android version. But wicked video as always Mr wicked
I was having a blast playing older Sega games on my ARC-D, I love the nostalgic style, I was a Genesis fanboy (though I also had an SNES eventually). Very comfortable to use for long sessions. Unfortunately mine abruptly stopped booting into Linux and only loads Android, hopefully Anbernic can resolve it for me.

Probably sd card dead. Try another one and flash new system on it...
Not counting the absence of analog sticks for late-era PS1, N64, and Dreamcast usage, this is absolutely the button layout I wish more portables used!
I picked this one up it feels so good to play mega drive and sega games with and the emulation is very smooth and performs very well. And it looks like the classic sega saturn ‘this is cool pad’!
i order that too cant wait 🤟🤪✌
The performance and d-pad are worth the price on its own. Then you throw in the comfort and great size even with big hands. This has taken the top spot for me over my Miyoo Mini + and Anbernic 353v. The Arc-S is a freakin beast. I got mine with the 128gig card which has great performance on its own, it was on sale at Amazon for 104, with a 15 dollar case on the way. Good stuff!! Nice coverage and subbed!

How are you enjoying it two months later ? I'm thinking about this or the retroid pocket 3 with grips to make it more comfortable. Retroid pocket 3 is more expensive and more powerful but doesn't look as comfortable to me.

@@ajdoyle9559 Honestly, I play my Arc-S daily. The performance is perfect, it will play any game that doesn't require analog sticks just fine, I was playing Crash Bandicoot with zero problems. Comfort is no issue as it fits perfect with zero cramping. It plays any game just fine, I am blown away by the performance and if you connect a controller then it plays Dreamcast games well. It is my top handheld for sure!!
Reminds me of the Game Gear, I like, the ultimate Game Gear😁
I bought the Arc D even though I'm not interested in using its Android mode. The reason? The solid color looks more appealing. I wish the Arc S had been available in solid black and white. It's silly the transport colors only are for the cheaper one and the solid only for the more expensive one, since the shells are identical!
just bought mine 2hours ago. cant wait
Wow im in love❤❤❤❤
Display looks good and you said the d-pad is nice. I might be sold.
Welcome back buddy😊

Thanks, it's great to make vids again. So much better laying for dead in my bed 😶
Screen ratio looks lovely and it's absolutely great seeing the Sega Saturn controller button layout but that D-pad...hmmm. I can't see that lasting long. How do you think it's going to stand up over time Wicked?
I am mainly interested in the comfortability of using the device. I have a 353vs and it is sort of hard to fully utilize the thumb sticks and the trigger buttons at the same time to play for longer hours. This seems very comfortable to use compared to the vertical handheld that I have.
It's not perfect but it's passable for the money. Good review and cool video Wicked!👉🙂👈

suggestion regarding the hdmi input on that samsung TV/monitor: by naming the input "PC" you will disable any scaling/post processing and you will get a very sharp image and way lower latency

It's all up what you like to play in the end. 8bit, 16bit all the the way to ps1 is fine. Dreamcast, Sega Saturn is possible to play. Looking for n64 it's not a good handheld. I love this formfactor and d-pad.
does it have Bluetooth?

It’s okay but you and I know the XU10 handheld is the way to go
For how long have Sega fans waited? Too long as Nintendo ninny’s get a handheld every freaking day it seems. While we have waited years. Yes, I have one and yes, I love it. Needs more power better software improvements but, it’s awesome!

The Anbernic Logo Looking like SEGA's? I had emailed them about that. So, I think though I can't prove it. That was my idea. Outside of the email I sent them before release of this system that is. I have that. @@Pridetoons
It is pretty nice hardware but like any Anbernic device, the software is janky AF and they are done updating it and Anbernic no longer provides source code to third parties so that's the end of that. Maybe wait for Arc 2 and it'll be 10% better but still jank software.
i got the blue one i have to stop buying these ruddy things
