I know we're not looking to do that lol. I'm just speaking to how I don't understand how these nobody companies can afford to release so many of these devices, they certainly aren't all printing money.

Are tax write offs a thing in China?

 

[Maximo101]

shoe community is huge and people pay some crazy prices, I sold a used pair of nikes last month for $2,000 lol

Makes for great counterfeiting of shoes...

You earn prestige over time and then you sell the Air Jordan. You don't start with the Air Jordan (you literally couldn't, he wasn't about to sign his name away to nobodies), stomp your feet and proclaim, "look how much street cred we have! Now buy our product!" And yes, these guys have made many of these devices, but they still lack such credibility. The average consumer will have never heard of these devices, but they will have heard of the Switch, and very possibly the Stream Deck.

Im a huge defender of american real fashionist like tom ford and few gay guys that are really elevating USA fashion image.But if there's something lame and out of fashion its Air Jordan and all NBA shoes galaxy.In that regard its like comparing a truffe omelette to a pancake.Same applies to kanye/kardashian/yeezy balanciaga garbages.So that prestiges is only seen by americans and people blindly following the media trends.

Android gaming devices are a good idea, but the market is overly saturated with these god damn devices now.

and it's all the switches fault since they were the first one

Well, the SteamDeck also made these companies want a piece of the cake.

Hey I'm not looking for Air Jordans either, just like I'm not looking for anything from Chanel. But that doesn't change the fact that I recognize that these products have 'earned' their prestige and people across the world will happily throw boatloads of money at such things (just not peeps like you or me lol).

The 3+ can run some Switch games.





So it's possible that the 4+ could run even some more demanding titles.

Dude please don't even try to tell people 3+ plays switch... that's pathetic. An inco 2010 sure can too.

Is the RETROID POCKET 4 Powerful enough for PS2? PS3 emulation?

PS2 yes, PS3 no.

Makes for great counterfeiting of shoes...

of course there's tons of counterfeiting but with social media now, and sneaker re-selling sites the knowledge and evidences out there for buyers to differentiate real pairs versus fake. Now that doesn't mean the factories in china or vietnam aren't still mass producing fake pairs lol, but as a seller its pretty hard to sell a fake pair if you have a fake pair

 

[mrmagicm]

@Veho concerning ps2, are you sure they are no slowdown in any games? All small console had dome till then

I'm not sure about anything because the console is not out yet. "No slowdowns in any games" is a stretch though.

We can make an educated guess. Here's what the PS2 looks like on the 3 Plus:










Compatibility list:





And if we compare the specs of the 3 Plus and the 4 Pro:

Unisoc Tiger T618
CPU: 2*[email protected] + 6*[email protected]
GPU: Mali G52 MC2@850MHz
RAM: 4GB LPDDR4x


MediaTek Dimensity 1100
CPU: 4*[email protected] 4*[email protected] GHz
GPU: Mali G77 MC9@836MHz
RAM: 8GB LPDDR4x


I think that spec upgrade will shift some (not all) of the titles in the compatibility list up by a grade.

So PS2: playable, PS3: no way.

 

[j4k0b7]

I'll be interested to see if RP4 Pro makes all Gamecube games playable. Do folks think that it will? I watched a lot of review videos on the RP3+ and know it can play some Gamecube games but wondering how much this upgrade will really change Gamecube playability. On another note, I also wish that the RP4 Pro had an atomic purple but seems it does not.

 

[Maq47]

I'll be preordering one on these within 2 weeks before they start shipping. I'll but the Pro. I've been waiting for the day in which I could run Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth: Complete Edition on an Android device, and this device checks all the boxes for me at an affordable price.

not on Ebay! Tons of fake sneaks on there... Vintage fake Air Jordans for $50 a pair.

yea eBay gets a ton, but when the item passes I believe $90-100 it goes to that authenticity guarantee, but yea you can technically sell fakes if the price is under that

 

[Maximo101]

not to make this about ebay, but they will not remove repeat offenders for selling fakes. They make a TON of money off of fakes in thousands of catagories!

BUYER BEWARE!!

 

[Smoker1]

Cant wait to see how the RP4 Pro handles PS2 and Switch Emulation
