RG35XX - This is amazing! - eviltoast

Just got this bad boy yesterday and I’m like a kid at Christmas! 😄 The delight I felt firing up my old love, Desert Strike… Goosebumps! Seriously impressed with this bit of kit, and I’m enjoying exploring the options as much as the many many games! The effort put in by the community with GarlicOS and the ROM packs is simply magnificent.

    Like not even close. This is like 5th generation consoles and no PC. Aya will emulate Switch and probably lots of PS3, and of course play PC games. Also it lacks a 3D joystick so there’s that.

      What generation of games would this play? SNES? PS1? gamecube?

      My metric right now is for something that can basically play all the Zelda games short of the Switch versions. If I can get anywhere close to that, then I’m probably going to be happy with it. I just kinda want to relive the days of LTTP and titles like FF6, possibly even ocarina of time and majora’a mask… pretty much all zelda titles short of Breath of the Wild.

      being able to save some money with something like this would be nice too.

        I highly doubt it can do GameCube, Wii, and possibly not even DS. N64 and possibly some Dreamcast but again you’re missing the 3D stick.

          Thank you for this.

          Just one follow up question: is it possible to connect an external controller to the unit? Perhaps one with a joystick? I have several that work on Bluetooth.
