    I'm on record as wishing RTD was my Dad. I want it even more now! Awesome to get to know the Man behind the Hands.

    I remember netbooks. So I know that windows handhelds have the potential to destrot this industry altogether. Windows didn't bring "more competition" to netbooks. It wiped them and turned them into slightly smaller laptops that weren't as good as laptops.

      lol yes netbooks were useful for many but absolutely awful pieces of tech.

    Great interview!
    I will add that battery tech is holding back these larger handhelds.
    Maybe swappable batteries would work that can be charged separately as well.
    How sweet would it be to play for 3-6 hours and then swap out with a freshie!

      Would be even better if they had a small 800mah internal battery, so you could swap the larger packs without shutting down the system

    31:00 does anyone actually want to run PS3 games, tho? I mean, the few good ones are constantly getting "remastered" or "remade" anyway.

    • @adinwalls
      @adinwalls  10 місяців тому +1

      I think there will always be be a demand to emulate the next system. A lot of games have been remastered for other systems too. I think the compelling drive behind it all is to be able to play all your old games on one device… for free (sort of).

  • @DrDanLawrence

    I'd love to see more dedicated devices that are system specific. For example a vertical device with a GB/GBC resolution screen and a nice big two button layout for A/B instead of the relatively tiny ABYX layout, which you don't really need for GB/GBC/GBA. Or a dedicated GBA horizontal. There always seems like a few too many compromises with the devices. I can't complain, though, I really enjoy the MIyoo Mini with MiniUI as a super portable system that does everything I want. But I don't see the RG355X and Miyoo Mini+ as good enough GBC form factor replacements. The missing chin space... I guess growing up with a GameBoy DMG and GBC and that really high quality and durability and it just seems to sit right in the hand... Anyway, I like the podcast, this is a cool idea. I haven't seen a lot of podcasts about these devices so there might be a niche here. I think some timestamps with links would be cool in the future to browse through the major topics.

    • @adinwalls
      @adinwalls  10 місяців тому +1

      Hey there. I’m in two minds regarding timestamps for the podcast. Thanks for the feedback. I’m going to be building myself a GBC and making a video about it soon…

    • @DrDanLawrence
      @DrDanLawrence 10 місяців тому

      Nice, I saw a few people talking about the FPGBC kit and it looks pretty neat, will be interested to see compatibility with Everdrive, that seems like the running question, some people are having trouble with it, something with the firmware@@adinwalls

    Aloha, Aiden first off. I just want to say I love your videos. You’re doing an awesome job and I’m looking forward Too many more and future👍🏼 question I want to start a UA-cam channel on techie stuff and I’ve been thinking about this for 10 years as well. Is there any way you can guide me to the best tutorial that would be wonderful thank you kindly have a blessed day.🙏🏻😃

    • @adinwalls
      @adinwalls  10 місяців тому +1

      Hey there. There are so many UA-cam guides but I honestly didn’t find them very helpful. I think because each niche is different. As mentioned in this vid with Rob, a trait I have seen to be very common is hyper focussing in a device. Almost every person who has done well did this. Which is convenient because then you just need to buy one device and focus on it for a few months. I think the other lesson from all my interviewees is a clear brand message, who are you? What is your “voice”? And then you can start looking at the other things like titles and thumbnails.
