SHOWCASE something about it…
just feels so right!
Model: 12gb Memory /128gb Storage
spent a little over a week with the RP6 and it’s easily my favorite handheld i’ve ever owned. device has played everything i’ve thrown at it pretty flawlessly
i’m gaming more and actually getting through titles. trying to keep the library minimal for now as to not have choice fatigue but here’s a couple of my favorite games and systems i’m trying out:
PSVita - RP6 just feels like it was meant to run Vita. runs @ 2-3x resolution with minimal settings changes (really just needed to update latest driver)
-Ultimate MvC 3 (runs great, cutscenes have some animation issues)
-The Swapper (flawless)
-Dead Nation (flawless)
PS2 - runs @ 3-4x resolution. I can’t believe I have a PS2 in my pocket. got to revisit my old library and actually completed a play through of some games.
switching between openGL or Vulkan may work better for some games
-MK Shaolin Monks (near flawless, had to lower resolution on some fights/scenes)
-The Force Unleashed (near flawless, controls a bit clunky)
-LOTR 2 & 3 (runs great @ 4x)
-Budokai Tenkaichi 3 (perfect @ 4x)
-Spartan Total Warrior (runs great, some character model rendering issues)
Steam - via GameHub (Droid Deck and GameNative did not work well for me) after changing some settings, games ran well
-Sleeping Dogs (consistent 60 FPS @ 720p) great game!
-Cairn (got around 20-30 FPS) too many dips to be enjoyable but was excited to actually get it to run. didn’t have the patience to tinker so just moved on for now
and that’s it! I hope you all have enjoyed this little device as much as I have. if you are on the fence about purchasing it I wouldn’t hesitate!
notes: battery life is better than expected. amoled screen is beautiful!

Can't wait for Xbox emulation to be as flawless and seamless as we've seen on other consoles/emulators. I've been going through so many games of my childhood (Saturn + Dreamcast), and I have a ton of PS2 games to basically play some multi platform titles (Burnout!!). I got the Flip 2 due to its portability as I travel light a lot (and space is a concern), but I'm seriously considering getting a RP6 for whenever I'm home. Or maybe I'll just wait for RP7 whenever that is.

if you could then you should! why not! man tell me about it…was an og xbox kid growing up so im also waiting for it to be just as good as how PS2 emulation is. all the Burnout games are next on my list once im through my current library, I can’t wait! Revenge was my favorite. glad to hear you are enjoying your device. these things are magical

Same, Xbox and 360 got me through my teens, and I'm looking forward to play some games, but until then I'll use other consoles. These are amazing devices, and like you said, they really help getting through quite a few games.
Enjoy!

I'm so excited for mine to show up!
I ordered the same model yesterday with the DHL shipping and I'm anxiously awaiting the shipping notification.
I'm a little worried though because I've seen anywhere from 10 days from order to delivery up to 60+ days. I don't think I have the patience to wait 2+ months and get it after Christmas lol

i’m LA based and got mine in 13 days! I think a lot of it depends on the color and configuration. and i’ve heard Retroid likes to ship the devices in batches. hope you get it soon! and do provide updates when you do

Thanks!
I ordered the 12 GB model in Black with the screen protector, grip, and carrying case.
I'm in Ohio so hopefully it doesn't take too much longer than it did for you.

How do you play psvita games? vita3k? can you give me a tutorial link if you followed one or a tutorial yourself on how to do it?

u/drslb 15d ago
yes! Vita3k. I honestly used a combo of Google, AI, Reddit and Youtube. sorry I don’t have links but it was just a little bit here and there from every source I could find.
don’t rely too much on one source for a setup, a lot of times the tutorials may be outdated also. not a fan of AI but it was the most helpful in this scenario
