I Played The RG556 For A Week And This Happened

Ойындар

The Anbernic RG556 is one of the best retro gaming handhelds. But can it take the spot as my main console for a week? Is it really the PS2 emulation and Gamecube emulation beast it appears to be?

    Hey man, I love these videos. It shows real life scenarios for the use of the device, instead of benchmarks and specs.

    I never put my portable game consoles in my pocket even as a kid. I always put em inside a storage case and then in my little bag. That said, this Rg556 seems appealing to me if I can play Genji, Onimusha, Okami, Shinobido, The Warriors, FF12 in it flawlessly. These are my favorite games for the PS2

    I have the 556 but this makes me want to play toca for the tracks on PC even if emulated 😄 I had the first 2 on playstation. I love the 556 for playing up to Dreamcast on a big oled and a decent price. Nes/SNES/psx also. It's good that you point out it's shortcomings and I think that racing games are some of the hardest to emulate due to rendering fast moving 3d environments. But I'm glad there's a less premium priced handheld with an oled screen for enjoying older titles.. without resorting to those 3.5" LCDs which are just too small for big hands and to soak everything in.

    Great take buddy. I think you're right about the racing games being some of the most difficult. I do truly love the RG556, it does so many things right! I guess we're just still waiting for that perfect mid range PS2 emulation. I think going for the PSP version of TOCA Race driver might be the best bet!

    Playdate is a great console and totally unique, just really overpriced to get it out of the US. Analog Pocket, I'm personally not a big fan of. I think many much cheaper retro emulation devices do pretty much the same thing at a fraction of the price with a lot less faff.
