Can you do a video on the best handhelds you have ever tried and used
So I wonder if there's any chance they could fit a 2.7" screen in there without having to alter things too much? I would really love to see that in the next revision!
Does Sonic The Hedgehog 3 for the Sega Genesis run well? That game a lot of rom players have a hard time running

Same! Ordered a month ago and it just shipped from China :(
Just got mine today. Definitely smaller than expected. Brandons camera view makes it look bigger than it actually is. Still its pretty cool to have for $40.
How are the PS1 games with frameskip? I can handle 15FPS on a 2.4" screen, but audio stutter ruins the experience.

I can't play them on here unfortunately, it's just too much, especially with the audio stutter. It would take you a very long time to complete a PS1 game on this thing due to it being very slow.
Very thorough and informative! Thanks man! Looking forward to getting mine in a few weeks.

How did the SNES play? The PSP has problems playing SNES
You're the man bro. I really enjoy your videos. Best regards from New York!
I just ordered mine! Gonna do a little review myself!
Could you replace the micro SD card that the system comes with to a 32gb?
I hope you can adjust the screen brightness on this, as this screen seems pretty dark compared to the last version of the BitBoy. Seems the colors are less vibrant as well. I rather liked the old screen better I think.
12:44 it's called 'buffer under-run', the audio buffers don't have data to play, because the CPU is too busy on graphics
I really was looking for a handheld console and if it isn't this one it'll most likely be the other one that you showcased on your video that played GameBoy Vance cartridges as well as being able to run emulation I think it was called the big boy got to go to your video to get safari
Is there a better alternative to the bittboy pocketgo v1 in October 2020? I like the size especially so form factor is a big deal for me. To put a portable in my pocket again would be awesome.
Could you see if games such as Tearring Saga play in this unit?
Just wondering how is this compare to a PSP running emulation instead ? I'm assuming the latter should have enough processing power to run PS1 games but I'm quite liking the Pocket-Go smaller form factor.
How well does it emulate the Atari Lynx?
I'm joining this party very late, but I'm waiting for my PocketGo to arrive. Just checking in to see what to expect from the boxing haha. Sounds like it's going to be a blast with the CFW.
Weirdly i missed this upload, i usually watch them on day release but hey cheers for the vid anyways 😂
I wonder if the screen is backlight
Does formatting the sd card before even turning on the system mess up the pocket go?
Wait so does the PocketGo already have a ton of preinstalled games on it for each different day platform? Cause chances are I won’t be installing anything or not a whole ton of stuff.
It looks fantastic. My only concern is the volume wheel and power switch being in the sides. I'm worried if I were playing on this that the volume would go up and down because my hands and that there might be a chance that I accidentally turn off the system as well.

How long did it take
Thanks for the review. Honestly I believe all these emulator handhelds are made by the same manufacture somewhere in China and are being shipped with different titles. I was pretty happy with my RS97 for a while (with custom firmware of course). then I went back to retroarch on PSvita and honestly it's the best retro emulation experience...
Hey brandon Love your vids!
still screen tearing? thx
I can't wait to get mine. I've owned another Bit Boy and it was okay, but I'm looking forward to adding games to this and playing them in the old GBA form.
Awesome video man! can you do link battle with this? lets say if me and my friend owned one and we wanted to battle or trade our pokemon.
Fyi it's the same specs exactly as the v3.5 bittboy just a couple extra buttons
Ive recently ordered the BittBoy PocketGo and a SD card with preloaded games that came as a package deal with it.. New to this stuff and may be a dumb question but is it possible to play the same SD card/Games on a different emulation system like the LDK or RS-97 ? Love the channel BTW. - Emulation Noob
Is the operating system on the Micro SD or installed onto the system itself?
As a fellow gamer this great for me because I can’t really afford like the Nintendo switch :’(
How do u download games? Don’t you take take the SD card out of the system put it in a USB and download your rooms on that?
How do I run Pokémon from GBA? I get the same white screen from the PC emulators, but in their cases I only have to change the save format. Where do I do that on Pocket Go? Or there is no way to do that and then play?
Are you going to review the new LDK?
What about brightness setting???
My man!! First of all.. big fan. I love your reviews. So natural! Second, I bet you played both, not going into specifics, if you have to buy one, which one will you buy : Pocket go or LDK (first gen) Answer much appreciated. Love from India.

what do u recommend to buy? bittboy v3 or pocket go?
Pretty awesome little console for the price. Can't wait for mine to come in the mail! The only complaint I have about it is that it only has a paltry 32MB of RAM. This is a device that could certainly use more RAM than that and it would likely have better emulation of both SNES chip games and certain GBA games if it had even just double what it has now. As of now there are still some games that need frame skipping to play decently which is just no good when the cost difference between 32 and 64MB of RAM is so miniscule. Heck, they might as well just use 128MB of RAM as that might even allow it to support PS1 games properly as they run very slow on the device currently. The CPU itself is more than capable, so I really do hope to see an upgrade in RAM size one day in a future revision as it's really a shame to see it be bottlenecked by a lack of RAM. If they ever do that I will most certainly buy that version to replace the current one.
What’s better; this or the Powkiddy V90?
Love your vids and Golden Sun is one of my favorite gba game.
I only can buy in the page or i can do in another page like couse im from mexico
Resident Evil 1 on the retromini played pretty good, maybe when I get this product I can test and see if Resident Evil 1 works for that.
great vid! do you have a black curtain behind you??
Not dust behind the screen after the opening ?
Quilava against level 2 sentret on fire red Why does it look so weird to me.
After purchasing the V2 of the Bittboy, I was looking forward to the Pocket Go. I decided against purchasing one until I saw/read reviews about the product. My main purpose for wanting one is for the ability to play SNES, Genesis n GBA roms. However, I knew the frame rates for the SNES n Genesis were going to be slow and jaggy, which is a shame after the hype they have been putting out. Its also the reason why Im waiting for an updated version (just like the Bittboy) to see if they’ve improved on the software. But for the price itself, its a bargain.
Do games come pre installed i know the bittboy did not

With they kept it in the bitboy shell. could have bumpers like the retro mini did. Just my preference. Other wise pretty cool :) wish playstation played better though. I want something that does both
So there are many many games pre loaded?

I love that this comes with 44 "Ports" games. I also found an NSF player (NES sound format music file) online & installed it to it, and a collection of literally ALL NSFs AND THEN SOME, so I have a cheap $29.99 handheld with thousands upon tens-of-thousands of games on it plus more NES music than I'll ever listen to in my lifetime. This thing is great. Glad I grabbed one before it went out of style. Maybe they can still be found on Temu?

It's best looking retro hand-held imo, if only it had a slightly bigger display.
You need to check your video encoding settings, it's really low bitrate that's causing your video to pixelate a lot. Thanks for the review.

I have one of these. It's stupidly small and the battery just broke in mine after like 4 months.
