Gamemt E5 Ultra
Well; it runs a Unisoc T620 if that helps. Which is decent - should handle everything up to PSP and some GC/PS2, or that’s about what it seems to me. Not quite as good as the T820 (RG476h, RG556) but probably close? Comes with 6GB of RAM and a 128GB internal drive which is solid. But man, those ergo

Would love an official way to play PS2 games like Dark Cloud 1&2 on the go, similar to how the Switch 2 has official GameCube emulation
I played both of them perfectly on my Anbernic rg556

Console or game advice for a 30+ gamer
You might like the Anbernic RG556,($170), or RG557,($270). I have the 556. It’ll play SOME PS2& Wii games,.. but plays EVERYTHING, from PSX/ GameCube, down to SNES& Sega Genesis. Old arcade board& systems can run as well. I think the 557, irons out the capabilities for the handling PS2& GC. It might

Has Anyone else had this problem?
Thanks. I'm pretty sure Anbernic will solve that issue for you since you bought directly from them. I read that sometimes the fan get issues after high usage and that's "normal". Although you could do a lotore things with an Ayn Odin Portal (more switch and pc emulation) for basically similar price

Portáteis de Emulação
Tenho um Anbernic RG40XX H e gosto bastante! Comprei ele para o meu filho (6), na verdade, e ele também gostou e joga frequentemente. Já veio com uma cacetada de jogos de tudo quanto é console "retrô" e é bem tranquilo de adicionar mais jogos. Esse modelo é um dispositivo de entrada, paguei coisa de

SteamOS 3.8 is officially available for AMD machines.
Next, Steam OS on Android. I have an Anbernic RG556 and running Game Native. Small indie titles like Moonlighter run solid. Edit: Or should I say, Android compatible devices or ARM chips. Edit, Edit: Steam app running on Andriod

Where to find PS Vita in Bangkok
Mega Plaza near Old Siam has loads of handheld consoles. You can also get the new emulator style ones, some of which can run Vita games well like the Anbernic RG556 and RG476H.

Can't get stable 60 fpswith Mario Kart Double Dash in MMJR 1 Dolphin
Switch to OpenGL to get rid of the blue tint. These settings made the game run flawlessly on my RG556: https://www.reddit.com/r/ANBERNIC/comments/1ednh8r/i_had_several_people_ask_me_what_my_settings_were/

I’m switching to retro gaming
Get yourself a recent Anbernic device, a beefy mini SD card, and a USB C to HDMi cable. You'll be set for the rest of your life if you look after it. I have the RG556 (for about €151) and it runs just about anything from the second generation up to the 6th generation. Supports literal tens of thousa

Man, these games are expensive
pssst… -whispered tones, or course. - (ever think about emulation?). I finally got a little handheld from Anbernic,(it’ll also connect to TV in 1080, and pair with a wireless controller). I wanted to play Twilight Princess, but the price, popped my nostalgia bubble. I got their Rg556. It handles EVE
