What is the highest level of console generation can the switch (v1, v2, oled) emulate?
I would personally look at an Ayn Odin 2 (Portal, in case you want Oled) or Ayn Thor (same power, just clamshell).Or Odin 3 for even more power.Switch is great for Switch games but too weak for emulation. And don’t even think about Steam emulation. To put into perspective, modern Android handhelds h

New Odin 3 Owner - What's the Best Way to Run Games?
Ok, lets do this one last time. TL;DR: Look up guides. There's a bunch of them that will walk you through most everything. They are on youtube and most of those have write ups on personal websites/blogs too. The Odin line of devices by the company AYN (Odin, Odin 2, Odin 2 Mini, Odin 2 Portal, Odin

Should I emulate or play original hardware
Emulate. It's convenient, it's free, and only collectors get a kick out of playing on original hardware. I'm an OG gamer from the 70s, and while I admit there's a little thrill in seeing and working with the original hardware, nothing beats the convenience of my Ayn Odin 2 Portal docked to my TV, re

Sold my SD Oled, kept my switch 2
Smart. I'm a huge fan of the Steam Deck and love mine. But when it's not the right tool for the task... buh bye. Switch 2 is a great handheld for new titles with plenty of power for a really enjoyable experience. Plus, if you want more than that, there's always Android handhelds and emulation. Tons

New RP6 12+128GB Stick Top Configuration
I have been making this argument myself actually. I have an AYN thor 8gb and the AYN Odin 2 portal 12gb and the PC emulation is marginal at best. Internal storage is more a factor than the ram. I got absolutely destroyed for say that the 16gb snapdragon elite was not necessary. The bottleneck will a

Is there a good portable gaming handheld that can handle PC games
Ayn Odin 2 portal / mini pro Ayn Thor Retroid Pocket 5/G2/6 These ones are on that price range, emulation is up to Switch and with Gamehub you can play steam games. So is up to whatever you like the most in terms of form factor

I wish I had a PSP too
I mean, not really. I still have my old PSPs but Id definitely reach for my Retroid Pocket 5 or Ayn Odin2 Portal all day over original hardware. Still just using a Bluetooth controller with your phone will probably work fine as well. PPSSPP is a great emulator, and depending on your device you easil

Handheld collection go brrr🥶
Your collection looks healthy and every device makes sense for your use case. I just think that Odin portal 2 Max is a bit overkill for just up to PS2 Emulation and Streaming. Personally I would just keep AYN Thor and ROG Ally X, if I could keep only two devices. AYN Thor for up to Wii / PS2 / Gamec

Should I upgrade to the portal??
An Odin 2 Max to and Odin 2 Portal Base would not be an upgrade. It would be a slight downgrade in power which would effect your ability to emulate Switch and PC games. It would have a bigger and better screen, though. If you want a genuine upgrade, hold on and wait to see if Ayn release an Odin 3 P
