RG405V Retro Handheld Game, Android 12 Built-in 128G TF Card 3172 Games,4 inch IPS Touch Screen with Game Front-end,RG405V Supports 5G WiFi Bluetooth 5.0 (ARD-RG405V-Wood Grain -128G-Latest)

I. Frickin. Love. This. Thing. It's such a great handheld, it's the little Gameboy that could. Plays Gamecube which is crazy to me. Double dash was my favorite, it's great to play it again, only on a Gameboy. Wii is a bit iffy, but some games work well. Everything pre-wii works great, even some light ps2 stuff works! Also does 3DS! Battery life is amazing, and the buttons and sticks feel great. Since it's an Android based handheld, it's already familiar to me and is an absolute breeze to setup and use. Just download your emulators from the Play Store, download your roms, and you're off to the races. Absolutely my favorite retro handheld so far, can't wait to get my hands on the next one.

Has the classic games, no remakes. only reason i bought it was so i could avoid having to pay 200$ for pokemon heartgold. They have a game that uses the heartgold cover, but it's literally just old pokemon gold. Probably a decent rom device, but the way they advertise it like it's all "built in" nah. You'll probably have to lookup a youtube to set it up, then hook it up with the cable to your pc to download the rom on to the SD card to get it going (if it goes at all, from what people have said it doesn't).

I initially got this system as I had a similar model that was running well enough but didn't have the full capabilities that I was looking for. I'm no expert in terms of emulator systems but have had some experience with all-in-one game systems and handheld multi platform gaming consoles in the past. This, however, is miles above those cheaply made, flimsy systems that are essentially 90% 8-bit games or knockoffs of popular media. This system allows you to run a variety of emulators which allows you to play several style games from a wide span of several decades. You can play classic SNES games, motion based Wii U games and a little bit of everything in between. There is a bit of a learning curve if you've never played an emulator but essentially what it does is allows the device, the RG405M, to replicate playing on a variety of Gaming consoles.All of the hard work is essentially done for you from the get-go as these emulators have been around for years but are already downloaded and fully activated on the device. All you really need to do is download your games from reputable, legal sites or copy them from your existing physical versions to create a portable game system that you can use virtually anywhere! And even that may be something you might not even have to do as the system posts and impressive ton of games already downloaded and ready to go once you turn this on. I looked through the list several times and, unlike similar systems that claim they have thousands of games that are all in one, this actually has no repeated games in their game lists. Some systems have hundreds of games already preloaded into the RG405M and it just takes a matter of finding which one is your favorite and with in a matter of clicks you're good to go. Games like pokemon, several Mario games, a number of Zelda games and a surprising number of Kirby games are already installed. My favorites are definitely the Crash Bandicoot games for the Game Boy Color and advanced emulators.Buying this over getting a brand new unit that has nothing installed is a no-brainer as it takes away 99% of the guesswork of jumping into emulators and playing them wherever you want. Now downtime is basically just more time to play as you can switch from Wii games to PlayStation to Sega Genesis, etc. games all within a few clicks of a button. Initially, my first unit arrived with some damage to the screen and I was really bummed but after contacting customer service, we reached a resolution to have the device replaced and the model I received is flawless. Took no time at all to reach a speedy resolution and the communication was excellent. Really felt like the seller was trying to make sure my purchase was a good one. Can't say enough about this unit and the seller in general as it allows me to relive Nostalgia from gaming as a kid, literally putting the power to play on my favorite units all in the palm of my hand!

I've bought many similar devices over the years, and this one gets high marks for most things, but with one huge issue (for me anyway). Starting off with the good:* Quality build - the device itself is solid, has a surprising amount of heft to it, and just feels good.* Wide compatibility - unlike most similar devices, this actually had no issues at all playing things up to and including PSX. Supposedly, it does well with Dreamcast and even PS2, but for reasons I'll outline below, I never got a chance to try them.* Good controls - the controls themselves are responsive, feel good, and are mostly easy to reach - the select and start buttons are a tiny bit annoying, but they don't get pressed often so I'm okay with that. Despite the joystick positions being different from most of the competition, they work well and are low-profile enough that the right stick doesn't get "bumped" accidentally during play.* Amazing screen - this thing is the perfect size for pretty much everything I play on it and looks remarkably good. There's just a touch of light bleeding on the left edge of mine, but it's only noticeable when on a predominantly solid black screen.* Easy interface - the UI they've provided is both a pro and a con in my opinion. It's simple, easy to use (for the most part), and not entirely unattractive, but it's also very "what you see is what you get" - you can change accent colors and background images, but that's really about the extent of the real customization you get.There's more good than bad, but in my case, the bad was pretty significant, so definitely worth mentioning:* The shoulder buttons - while they work well, the positioning is a bit awkward. Thankfully, I don't need them often for the games I actually play on this, so not a huge issue for me, but could be problematic for others.* The UI - as mentioned above, the UI works well enough, but it's too inflexible for my tastes; I like tinkering and tweaking things and there's just not much opportunity to do that. If this was its biggest failing for me, I'd have no issues with it as a console, but read on!* The speakers - I'd love to be able to give them higher marks because they actually do sound really good for a device this size. Unfortunately, mine has a distinctive popping sound that is constantly in the background anytime a game is running but NOT playing audio (e.g.; during start, when a game is paused, during loading screens, etc).* The single biggest issue with mine - I'm willing to call this a manufacturing issue (possibly also for the speaker issue), but it's resulted in effectively a $200 paperweight that I can't figure out how to get rid of. When I received mine, I did the normal basic setup, copied over a few games for every platform I intended to use (GB, GBA, GBC, NES, Genesis, and PSX), and did some basic play testing. Zero problems beyond the speaker issue, which I opted to live with since it only happens when there's no other audio playing (not a common occurrence in the games I play). In the evening I actually sat down and did around two hours of Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 and found it actually performed better than my computer did overall. The next morning, however, the problems started. When I booted the device to actually copy the rest of the games that I wanted to have on hand, the device went into a boot loop I couldn't break out of. I finally managed to get it to boot to the bootloader and decided to try installing Gamma OS to see if that would "unstick" whatever was going wrong with it. Installation seemed to go without a hitch, as did the initial setup, but after rebooting at the end of setup, the boot loop started again and this time I haven't even been able to get back into the bootloader.Now why this has turned into a nightmare: I'm not in the best of health - the whole reason I purchased this was so I'd have something to bring with me to the hospital on my all too frequent visits to keep me occupied for the long hours I'm stuck there. Since I can't even get it to fully boot, that's obviously not going to happen. Amazon wants me to print a return label and UPS it back to them for a refund. I don't own a printer, don't drive, and don't even have a print shop nearby I could take a taxi to - meaning I'd have to order a $200 printer just to print the label to get a refund on a $200 device that I really intend to buy again (because I'm still holding out hope it's a manufacturing defect). Not cool.
