Get the Odin 2. Base price is $299.
It can play all system up to until switch almost perfectly.

Switch is mostly good experience and most game runs great. But once the emulator improve it will be better. At this point it is the switch emu software hardware have plenty of power

Can someone school me on these. Does it come with games or do I need to download and transfer an emulator and games to a microSD card first? If so any recommended sites? Any good tutorials?

if you don't mind waiting at least a month for it to arrive, and are ok with the possibility of it not arriving at all, then aliexpress is right for you. otherwise you may want to shop elsewhere. their prices appear to be great, but as you wait and wait and wait for delivery, and then realize that it simply won't arrive, and then become frustrated with thier insane policy of having to provide "proof" of the item not being delivered (wtw?) you then come to realize that there is no savings at all.

Thats why you pay with paypal or with a credit card. When you use the banks money they are more to help you get your money back instead if it was your own Smilie

It comes with literally thousands of games. Some may have been hacked to give you powers. Others may be in different languages. They come on a Sim card, and you can remove games you dont' like and add new ones (ROMS) to the card. You can also hack the OS. (Changes are done on a PC. Check the YouTube video review at the top of the thread.)

I had placed well over 100s of orders with AE, and had only encountered one issue with them due to the incorrect shipped qualities.

Nice, already picked up one for around this price so grabbing a second. Build and screen are great and I followed instructions on YouTube to put a better OS and add more games. Just know that you'll want to buy your own SD card and maybe pick up a wifi dongle (I got mine for $2) to make updates and scraping easier.

For $300 I would just save up for the Steam Deck cuz it also adds the huge pc catalogue also seen ps3 emulation but not tried on mine yet.

Any of the ones from China will very likely come with tons of ROMs. Any legit systems made here in the US won't come with any and you'll have to obtain them. *clears throat* Legally of course.
