Anbernic reveals the RG35XXSP, a GBA SP-inspired retro handheld

anbernic rg35xxsp.jpg

Retro handheld manufacturer Anbernic has revealed its first clamshell device: the Anbernic RG35XXSP. As the suffix indicates, this handheld's design is inspired by the GBA SP but it should be capable of playing more than just GBA games. While full specs of the device have yet to be revealed, the naming convention indicates that it will likely be another RG35XX device, just in another form factor. This means packing the quad-core H700 chip and the company has confirmed that the device will support HDMI connection, Bluetooth 4.2 and WiFi connectivity.



No availability or pricing for the Anbernic RG35XXSP have been announced but we should expect the company to provide more details in the coming weeks.

You know I do genuinely like the idea of emulation devices, I feel like concepts like these will allow first party systems to get more appropriate love and potential treatment in other genuinely impactful ways other than being relegated to straight up piracy all the damn time, it doesn't do anything to bring the potential out of hardware. I have to admit though, the amount of emulation devices being sold in this market, is rather stupid. Why do we need an excessive amount of clones of clones of clones of clones in different format factors? If emulation is a priority, you would think beefing up the hardware specifications would be more of a priority first before shoehorning the technology in a clone form factor. Man even when we finally have an avenue for this sort of concept, people STILL fuck it up, go figure.

An SP that can run snes games sounds tempting ngl. If the price is right and it doesn't have any major flaws I might replace my rg351mp.

Nintendo should release an sp with better screen and preloaded with a bunch games. Like the snes mini etc.
GBA SP did have a better, backlit screen AGS 1 or something? It ain't cheap now.

Still, I prefer the original form factor of the GBA.

At least this one has a cool form factor and isn't just another brick. Although, I am a sucker for clamshells.
It's obviously a GBA SP clone so if Nintendo wanted to sue them there'd be nothing to stop them.

if it can somehow work with either real hardware or dolphin for stuff like 4 swords adventure I'd take 2. sadly I doubt it does either

Anbernic really don't know how to make names, seriously

R G 3 5 X X S P

i don't know who is worse AYANEO or these guys for re-releasing shit
I believe Anbernic is worse, because both release tons of models and "we don't care if you can buy all of them" BUT at least AYANEO makes REAL names and not simply using codes/specs

I don't believe this is possible, considering Anbernic is a Chinese company

Kinda neat, but unless it can play anything beyond PS1 games, super redundant. Miyoo Mini Plus or RG-35XX H sure to be more comfortable to hold.

EDIT: video does show Dreamcast, PSP, and N64, so that is pretty impressive.

    @BigOnYa My dad recently bought a spare Series X off of me, got game pass, and saw Madden '24 on Game Pass, decided to try it out.

    @K3Nv2 He was looking into consoles for his house anyway (for my younger siblings and himself) and I had a spare XSX and Switch I ended up selling him at pretty steep cuts. I would just give them to him, but I did buy them with the intent to sell them... and college is super expensive.
