Really new to this, looking to spend £100-200
You could save some money an anbernic RG series device for about 70$ but it would struggle with gamecube. If Gamecube is a must i recommend the Retroid pocket 4 pro or retroid pocket 5.

Is it worth getting the rp4 pro in the big 2026??
I own the Retroid Pocket 4 pro. The hardware is very nice and it really feels like it's meant to used on the go, The buttons and triggers is also nice. The processor though is not suitable for Switch emulation and it might not be the best for PS2. Ps2 emulation is not very optimized. So you will nee

Modern handheld look so basic and samey...
Haha, thanks! Cool thing about these is that they're on the cheap side. The white ones (R36S and R36H) are the weakest, they peak at PS1 and can't efficiently go beyond that - I use them primarily for playing MAME games and Doom mods. They were 30$ each. The blue one (RG40xxH) and the GBA SP lookali

Retroid Pocket 4 Pro
Kurzfassung: Der Retroid Pocket 4 Pro ist der leistungsstärkere, günstigere Handheld, ideal für PS2/GameCube. Der Retroid Pocket G2 ist der neue Premium‑Handheld mit AMOLED‑Display, viel besserer Akkulaufzeit und stärkerer Switch‑Performance, aber deutlich teurer. Ich könnte mich irren. Von votmfakt

Mod 2026 Tutorial Released
This guide worked for me. Although now I play on Retroid Pocket 4 Pro instead of my Steamdeck. I actually want to find a way to wipe out anything I event did on Steamdeck emulation and start clean. I wasn't good at it and it got really quirky after updates on some emulators. I'm shockingly better at

Current best PS2 handheld for around $100?
At $100, you have a few options. If you're ok with used, the best option would be a used Retroid Pocket 4 Pro. You'll be able to do all of PS2, Gamecube, and Wii, along with some lighter PC emulation via Gamehub/Gamehub Lite/Winlator/Game Native, and some light Switch emulation via Eden/Kenji NX. If

Any tips for reducing lag?
It's interesting how I can run this on a Retroid Pocket 4 Pro, an unsupported/blacklisted device, at a solid 60 fps with all effects enabled, but the much more powerful iPhone 16 Pro lags. Hell, the iPhone 16 Pro is supposed to be more powerful than my Z Flip 4 (Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1) and that handles

for all the thumb players, what device do you play on?
I've found 4:3 and 1:1 displays to be the most comfortable for thumb use. However, I mainly use a Retroid Pocket 4 Pro, which is a 16:9 device (most powerful I have that runs the game perfectly outside my old Z Flip 4, but I get physical controls for everything outside the rhythm game). Have to real
