    Typically the purpose of the ebook reader is to be able to read FAQs or guides on the games being played :) I haven't used it myself, but that's how I've seen people use it before.

    • @AishTalksTech
      @AishTalksTech  7 місяців тому

      That would be an awesome feature if it was more functional, but it's not very practical in this case because you have to close the game to be able to open the e-reader.
      But I hadn't even thought of that use, it sounds pretty cool.

    • @AishTalksTech
      @AishTalksTech  8 місяців тому

      The 35xx has more features and is more comfortable to hold for longer play sessions, between the 2 I would only recommend the 28xx if someone specifically wants a smaller device.

    Thanks for this video- was thinking of trying the RG35XX H- but want something more pocketable and this unit will hit the spot , I know it’s not guaranteed I’m hopeful for better DS emulation - there are so many Mario Kart Romhacks that I would absolutely love to play on the go, and this would double this devices value to me.

      Like I said in the video if you want DS custom firmware is the way to go, it's running full speed on Knulli the only issue was the button mapping but I'm sure that'll be fixed on the official release.

    I bought mine specifically for N64 and so far I haven't been disappointed,...once I learned that you have to put N64 games into the device before the emulator will show up,...as mine looked like it didn't come with it at first.
    Its not the best handheld out there, as its basically just a replacement for the Trimui Smart, but I do like it,...though I would have liked a 286m a lot more. 😁

    • @AishTalksTech

      It does a decent job at N64, I just didn't want to give the impression that it's great for it.

    the device has the classic RG35XX color option but the device to me is mid, because it doesn't have analog sticks I can say it is ok and N64 is good since the D-pad is small but the device is really small for me, I think the device in-general was made for kids and adults with small hands.

      Once you're in the game open the quick menu and go to options, there you can adjust the resolution and turn on frame skip. You can also try turning on skip GPU readback, but some games will need it or they'll crash.
      Unfortunately PSP is going to be rough until until we get an update or CFW, but even then it won't be ideal.
