how did you get the games though? Did you download them individually from an Emulator site? Then transfer them to the SD card, and insert the SD card to the phone? It is not a thorough STEP BY STEP video I don't think. I got lost at 8.28. There is no "n64 folder" in my phone. Do I have to create it first? But how and where?
@@cloudstrife8940 this is definitely late af but yes, for emulation you usually will have to download the game file first. Make sure the format is correct, create a folder(usually anywhere works) and as long as the file format is right it should run.
Oh yeah. Just got mine and I love it. A bit weird using Nintendo button layout system wide especially on some apps that don’t allow remapping. Luckily the only system I emulated that isn’t Nintendo allows remapping
@@ronaldkincaid9972 It's literally 1:27 AM so if i say somethign dumb sorry. I think in gamesir app u can change the nintendo sw... layout to xbox layout. *I don't know if this helps xd* oh and a question: Is the d-pad feels good? :D Going to get my hands on a x2 usb-c in a week
@@storm8216 @Storm yeah I finally downloaded it and you can but I got used to nintendo lol. But yes the connected D-pad does feel good. I never pick up my thumb when using the D-pad and just slide my finger across it so it's feels right. Can't speak on the separated updownleftright they have on the 2020 version but it's similar to original switch Joy cons which is weird and doesn't make since if you can't use half the controller as one lol
I've been trying to figure ALL this out since I discovered emulators on pc back in 2014! Finally been able to get back into gaming and this is the best solution after selling all my consoles and games over the tough years. THANKS A MILLION!!!
I did a bit of research and found several good things about the Poco X3 PRO. Then I found it on the used market for 120USD. After that I ended up on this video, and I'm glad to see that you use this device! Im an iPhone user, So I bought the Poco X3 PRO for emulation alone and I'm incredibly satisfied with the performance!
A useful tip: If you are using stand alone emulators along with DIG front end, it will not be a seamless integration. For example: if you load a Dreamcast game through DIG and are using the Redream emulator it will just load you into the library screen in Redream. If you load an N64 game and are using M64 FZ, it will load you into the library menu of M64 and give you a "failed to read rom" error. So in short what I am trying to say is either use standalone's and get ATV launcher (or any other android launcher you like to make the interface look better) and just treat each standalone as it's own system. If you choose to use DIG front end or even something like launchbox, it will only be semaless if your backend is RetroArch cores.
Razer Kishi broke within 6 months of owning, and the Gamesir X2 feels incredibly cheap and is very awkward and uncomfortable to use. Just FYI for anyone reading. Currently I use an a Xbox controller (my preference with big old hands) with a Moga clip and a very short cable to reduce latency. It's a bit unbalanced compared to split controllers, but it's by far the best set-up for me so far.
Fantastic, as was the previous one on the subject. Usually follow people like ETA Prime and Retro Game Corp but this beats both, You are the first that I have seen to ever mention phone refresh rates and showing the pros and cons of types of controller, including a very cheap and affordable one for anybody shows that you think of all users and pockets.
This video is exactly what I have been looking for and so helpful with the emulation settings! I've used my Samsung S10+ in the past for gamepads streaming with the Xbox controller and clip. Now that I have upgrade from the S22 Ultra, I plan to setup my backup phone as a dedicated emulation/streaming device. Was also looking at a telescopic controller device to try.
I've been using emulators on mobile since 2009. I began on Symbian with Vbag, picodrive, Vnes, Vsun and VGBC. I like how the steps now are more streamline and easier.
One thing I've been considering is picking up a pixel 2. One of the last phones at 16x9 aspect ratio with a modern snapdragon and current version, and is quite a bit smaller. Pair it with the new gamesir x2 with the new dpad on it or with a kishi and we have a winner
This is so helpful thank you. I've been trying to get something similar on my phone and been struggling with some of the emulators. Hopefully after some tinkering it will work out from using this guide.
I play a lot of emulator games. N64, ppsspp and normal android games. These settings that you described are really help ful. Few months ago I spent a lot of time to configure all my settings of ppsspp and to understand them. The remaining options I will be able to configure now thanks to you. But I was going to upgrade my phone. My current phone is android 10. The next Will most likely be android 11. I hope that won't cause any trouble.
If you're using a Bluetooth controller, in order to reduce latency turn off the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth scanning. I noticed a huge input lag when playing New Super Mario Bros 2 on citra, but after disabling the function the experience was way more satisfying
The ppsspp cpu clock is a God send, I did this to my retroid pocket and can now play GoW. Also now got way better performance for gamecube games on phone. Thank you.
I was shopping the Odin, and I may get one after it has actually released but I decided to try this route instead and got a LG G8 with a Kishi controller on Amazon for $150 total. Not bad for as card support and a snapdragon 855
For people wanting to buy Gamesir X2 or using IOS theres 3 versions, one in this video, Gamesir X2 2021 version which has dpad and has larger phone support and the Bluetooth Version for IOS
TAKI !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you! This helps tremendously! I just switched from IOS to Android with the Galaxy S21 Plus. I'm in emulation heaven! lol
This is absolutely AWESOME! THANK YOU!! I have a request: could you make a video about how to use Octopus properly? I can't find one anywhere on youtube. THIS VIDEO WAS SUUUPER HELPFUL!
One of those videos where I decrease the speed, particularly in the Retroarch section. Nice to avoid a bunch of fluff and just get helpful information though!
The S21 plus is honestly a emulating beast that has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888. It pretty can run all dreamcast games smoothly at the highest HD settings. It can pretty much handle anything. Except GameCube and wii lol but it's crazy that it can still run those systems as well.
heck my s20+ is an amazing psp emulator and can run the vast majority of games at 6x native resolution or higher. I have around 75 psp games on my phone I just need some joycons now. Im not really in a rush I have a switch now but it'd be nice to get a pair eventually I just don't want to spend 100 dollars on it. Surprisingly the on screen controls actually work pretty well with the psp emulator especially with a fairly decent sized screen. Some games just don't work well because they require use of the triggers a lot and I'm not a fan of using the claw method.
Didn't know that X2 existed, bought a RG351P, screen died after less than a week, bought a Vita and with a CFW i can't say i'm not happy... that X2 tho... looks nice
Honestly this helped alot. I've been troubleshooting and trying to have my phone play some PSP games for nostalgia but I couldn't figure out how to do it properly. Thank you for this
I wanted to solve a problem I have with smartphones as emulator devices, is that I can't get the good feeling of playing a console, the notification messages, I don't know, there's too much to distract from the game, there's not that clean feeling of turning on and just play and that's it, do you guys feel that too? PS: I love your video Taki Udon! I am a brazilian subscriber who watch every video that you post!
Been looking for a guide to do this with my rusty old s7. Awesome screen and screen res is gr8. Hardware is not that bad and should work fine' just for tinkering and messing around. Plus I'm sure you'd be able to squeeze a bit more performance out of it with some oc's. Not affraid to open the phone and do some diy cooling addons.
I know this video is a little old, but my retroarch cores failed to download. I tried every one of them. Everything else is working top notch though, thank you :D
I will say this Drastic has NOT been updated for Android 11 so yes you are forced to run your games off the internal storage for that one. Also you can Enable "Disable mapped keys in overlay" to disable the onscreen controls for buttons you have physically mapped to a controller instead of doing it via the edit screens and virtual pad section
Hey Taki, would you be able to do a review of the LG wing using the dual screen for emulation? I would be really curious what the best controller to pair with it. I think it would be a fun project/video because the wing can have the screen swing out, and it would really look cool as a handheld.
@@TakiUdon Ah, I see. So it doesn't scale down well to yesteryear's lower end tiers even? Didn't know that. I haven't tried it on anything lower than an SD 845. PS.

Very nice video. I have already done the GameCube and Wii/Wii-U emulation handheld with my old Realme X2 Pro. Cheap phone with amazing emulation ability. Only down side to this phone is its lack of SD support. I have the 128gb version but even at that storage level, it gets used up fast.
I've been trying to snag one of these for emulation testing also, along with an F3 and they don't ship to the US. Only eBayer's charging $450-$500 seem to be an option, it's a bummer. :(
You can make a diy switch using the LG g8 and a razer kishi or gamesir x2 for under the price of a switch and its more powerful, can do infinitely more, and actually decent online. And of course emulation. My oneplus 7t can emulate sonic colors at 1440p and fzero gx at 720p.
Instead of an old phone, some phone carriers do promos where you get a free phone with sign-up, even without a contract, so it's the price of only one month. They're really cheap and do emulation better than most dedicated handhelds. Like, the price of a low-end Anbernic with the performance of a decent Retroid, and a better screen than either one.
Seriously considering this. My cellphone provider is offering me an Galaxy S20 FE for $4/month, and considering taking it as a dedicated emulation/streaming device.
Thank you so much for this video! Was really struggling to get things to run well on my Exynos S21 ultra but it's running most things like a dream using your settings as a base and adjusting from there.
I am going to use my J1 when I get a little, newer one. emulation on J1 is perfectly capable of emulating upto N64 games which is the threshold I was looking for. Higher-end emulation will be on my PC such as RPCS3 etc.
The only emulators I've got to work are: mupen 64, drastic ds emulator, fpse ps1 emulator, classicboy, gba emulators. I'm hoping with my steam deck I will be able to emulate ps2 games and use the dolphin emulator to emulate gamecube games 🙄 a very good guide video this should help when I get the deck
It looks like the new/more expensive X2 version has a D-Pad instead of buttons. I think the makers of it never thought about why the Switch had those as buttons and not a D-Pad in the first place, doesn't really make any sense for a phone holder controller.
Octopus has to "duplicate" the games for the mapping process and that may cause a ban on certain games like COD or genshin I use mantis gamepad pro, it's on the play store, but it had to be "activated" first, you can do that with a PC or another phone, if you have a rooted phone it activates with no PC or another phone. I have been using it for 2 months for Genshin Impact and don't have any ban
I actually want to turn my LG G3 phone into a Handheld Consule because of this video Unfortunately, the LG falied to install the psp emulation app. I hope other emulator apps don't have the same problem as well
Do you really only get 20fps (without medeling around with hacks) in Mario Sunshine with a Snapdragon 860? Seems a bit low compared to what I have seen online, or did you not use the Poco X3 for this section to show these hacks?
Hey this helped a lot but everytime I try and run a ps1 game it boots me to my phones home screen and whenever I run a dreamcast rom it just says failed. Is retrostic not a good site for dreamcast and ps1 idk where else to go
I hope this helps 🎮

You can make a diy switch using the LG g8 and a razer kishi or gamesir x2 for under the price of a switch and its more powerful, can do infinitely more, and actually decent online. And of course emulation. My oneplus 7t can emulate sonic colors at 1440p and fzero gx at 720p.

Nice tutorial! Hey, whatever happened to that $199 snapdragon emulator you teased a couple months ago? Is it still coming?
Hey this helped a lot but everytime I try and run a ps1 game it boots me to my phones home screen and whenever I run a dreamcast rom it just says failed. Is retrostic not a good site for dreamcast and ps1 idk where else to go
"old phone" but using USB-C... not so old then, is there a micro USB alternative to the X2 Controller?
USB C has been used in phones for about 5-6 years lol, also no there isnt.
Do you prefer doing this or do you prefer a dedicated device like the Retroid Pocket or Anbernic?
Great video
