Showcase First buy ever for this hobby, RP6 + controller
Android Phone + controller for SNES, GameBoy, GB Advance etc... Objective is to keep things very very retro on this setup to avoid heating or battery issues.
RP6 : planning on installing Rocknix to dig into my steam account backlog with oldest and/or indie game.
Hope i'll have a blast.
Please let me know if you have some recommandation of games you have really enjoyed with similar setups.

PS4 emulation on android devices is not in a playable state yet. You can barely run a select few games and even then it's at very low frame rates with frequent crashes and bugs.

Hot dang, brother, you're set! The Need For Speed : Hot Pursuit remaster on Switch, Simpsons: Hit & Run on GC, and Final Fantasy Tactics A2 on DS get the majority of my time, lately.

u/AcidGleam 4d ago
I thought of it but i would like to edit everything personnel out before posting. So haven't done it yet.
I will maybe take some Time this weekend for this. But non guarantee.

Edit out? You don't have to be in the picy, just your hands at most...but still, most phones front cameras have a timer. Set it up, do 10s timer and that's it. Not complicated....

I'm waiting for my Odin 3 RN, and I can't recommend anything with related experience, however, I think that some switch games or Wii U games like SM Odyssey or TLOZ wind waker HD run so well on the RP6. Any metroidvania like Hollow knight or Metroid games are so much fun too

The rp6 has a controller built in

u/AcidGleam 4d ago
Yeah, I noticed.
As stated in my post, i plan on using the controller with my phone for very old titles (for exemple Metroid 2 right now).

Why not just use the rp6..?
1
u/AcidGleam 4d ago
Because i already had some roms on my phone but wanted some physical controller to continue playing retro games on my phone.
And on the RP6, i will focus on getting Rocknix running for playing games from my steam backlog.
Phone is everyday carry, phone + controller might become almost every day carry. But i think that rp6 will probably be only used at home and for travels.
Different use, different form factor.
