Good price, I paid $200 after coupon a couple weeks back. Good setup video from Retro Games Corp, it takes a while but it's a solid little unit once done.

Not bad considering the rp6 is going to cost you $90 more after shipping. Power difference is a lot but if youre not emulating switch. I recently ordered the ayn portal max for 265 bc of the bigger screen.

Ayn as a company is a pos. ordered odin 2 portal on feb 6th. Because of the "overwhelming order" and Chinese New year, I have yet to receive a shipping confirmation.

Don't waste your money, is a good system but the dam chip is 6 or 7 years old. U play up to ps2 but native mostly, u won't able to upscale most game. It can handle gc and wii but still just native and wii is hit or miss on certain games. Hold on to ur money and wait for pocket g2 or pocket 6 drop

$396 normal price? Lmfao. Where do they get these numbers from?

On another note, these are awesome. I have a 4 pro and it's so so fun playing all these older games on the go.

I'm getting "For security reasons your request can't currently be processed" when trying to apply promo code (I tried to manually type it in, and copy/paste)

Agree. I'm just trying to decide if I should buy this or wait for the 6. Had a steam deck but just never used it but also don't want to pay for something that I'm unsure how often I'll use. I'd mainly wan to do ps2 and earlier on it.

I like standalone and purpose-built but this has the same processor as my Galaxy S20 FE.
