I just got one of these in the last month. For context, I also have a Miyoo Mini Plus and a Steam Deck. This has definitely been my go to device for PS1 emulation and below. Much more comfortable to hold than the two other devices for retro games. It's not quite pocketable, but it's been an amazing experience at home.

N64, Dreamcast, PSP and DS have all been a decent experience to a degree, though I would look for a more powerful device if those systems are what you are really after.

Decent deal, might be able to get cheaper on 11.11 at Ali xpres, but then you are waiting on the slow boat from China. I already have an Anbernic retro handheld, that's the only reason I am passing on it.

Says up to 4 business days for processing and 5 business days for shipping, so just under two weeks on the long side.

TIL this emulated dreamcast! Not as much of a fan for retro games myself I might consider it for Crazy Taxi and DOA beach volleyball ;D -millennial, I guess it doesn't emulate xbox games like halo or NFS underground right, that'd be dope

Exactly what I wanted to know. Thank you. I recently tried DS on a Miyoo Mini Plus and while it runs and is certainly playable, there's enough stutters and issues that it affects immersion.

Hi, what would be ideal for N64 and even DS?
I am pretty new to these devices.
Thanks in advance for any pointers.

DS actually works really well on the X55, apart from the lack of touchscreen. The stylus is replaced by using the joystick and joystick button, which as one could imagine, doesn't work as good as the actual stylus. But, games that don't require a lot of touchscreen activity would be a great fit due to the screen size.

I've had it for about 3 months. It's a pretty good system. You can play on it for hours on one charge and the controllers are good so your hands won't feel tired. The directional keys are also precise enough to play those games that require key combos. I've been playing PS1 games on it and sometimes nintendo or SNES etc. It's more comfortable than a razer controller on my phone. FYI, the left and right triggers are not analog, just buttons.

I know that some retro system has wifi while others have hdmi but this one has both so updating OS and scraping for game info is pretty simple. Screen is very nice too.
