Retroid Pocket 3+ back in stock. Great little system for everything up to PSP and some PS2/GC

He dogs on this a little, but I am really feeling this one. Might have to grab this while I wait for the Retroid Pocket 5+

Can't decide which color way I like best though. The white is pretty titties.

The white version is much prettier
Really struggling over grabbing one or not. This thing's main draw is purely form factor and a big 4:3 screen. I'd keep my RP4 for PSP and 16:9 content. The RP5 doesn't sound like a huge performance boost so much as it's just a sleeker design.

Too many choices...not a bad thing I suppose.

I'm still no clearer which one of these is good
There's at least 89 billion different models

It all depends on a few things:

Form factor you prefer?
What are the main systems you want to play?
How much do you want to spend?

After punching those into the Goobatron 2000, I can guide you.

I might end up with buyer's remorse once the RP5 reviews start dropping. But whatever.

I think I'm digging it because of PC Engine GT vibes with that badonkadonk.

I really regret my old PC-Engine GT.
That's a good approach and you can easily use L1,L2,R1,R2 for Turbo-mode, but finally in white ?
