Although every review or video that mentions it can run ps2 and gamecube. It can't. Also aethersx2 has been abandoned and is closed source. Also android sucks.

But so far its a really nice ps1 portable device. Usually I'd use my vita but I'm always worried about damaging it and they're not exactly in production so I wanted something more disposable with L2 and R2 buttons. Now i can play Abe's Odyssey/Exodus on the train :D

    It's scanning 3.4GB of NES ROMs in the retroid loader thingy. Shows it's at 54% right now, I'm not really sure what it's hashing but I believe it's trying to find box art as well as just scan everything

      How do you have 3.4gb of NES ROMs? There were 1400 NES games and the largest one was under a megabyte.

        What can I say, I downloaded a 3.4GB NES ROM pack and it's got way too many games in it, lots of duplicates.

          all the actual nes games are like 20 meg overall if you got it of archive.org you have a lot of deleting to do

      Ah gotcha. I assume it's on WiFi? I got the roms loaded on mine after I did the initial setup, so each app just had to scan the library then. Didn't have any issues with Dolphin or anything. With NES I'd imagine you'd be running through retroarch, which to my knowledge doesnt do box art or anything.

      Also if I should just shut up please tell me, I'm not exactly expert-shapiro here
