Sudachi isn't accepting contributions and they explicitly mention it's a Nintendo Switch emulator, I don't see that repository/project lasting very long at all unfortunately. They have a big target on their head right now.
It's survived the longest of the forks so that's something at least! I think being low key is the way to go for them, which is the opposite of what Suyu was doing. 🤦♂️😅
@@retrotechdad True but that searchability/discoverability with explicitly advertising Nintendo Switch naming and also advertising Yuzu naming and relying on GitHub is playing a really risky game. I guess we will see what happens but I don't have high hopes lol
@@retrotechdad True but they explicitly advertise Nintendo Switch and Yuzu naming so that's not super low key, and they are using GitHub so that's not ideal either. Hopefully they stick around for a while though.
@@Normydoit Yeah, the fact he's using Nintendo Switch and Yuzu naming, using GitHub, and doesn't accept contributions... it's not looking great long-term. He should be using more generic naming everywhere and should be using like a self-hosted Git or something similar.
@@retrotechdad why not >? i dont really see why all the hate for the 556 imo its the best hand held ever made even better then steam deck cause its cheaper lighter smaller more confrtrable last 10 x longer cuase battery life and anything u cant play nativley on it u can stream so they both play the same amount of games
@@CHICKENmcNUGGIESMydudehey I hope you see this and answer me back… I am new to emulators and hand helds… I have gone down the rabbit hole on these handhelds and they range from 60 bucks to 800. This one seems to be a good “bang for the buck”. Any advice would be greatly appreciated 🎉, Thanks and hope to hear your response and any advice you have! Have a great weekend!
It's so annoying it doesn't have save state. Got really far on Luigis Mansion 2. Went back to it and it had lost all my play. Add save state and it'll be a winner. Playing on the RG556 and plays perfect.
Nice showcase. Love your presentation style. Liked and subbed! Just got a Miyoo Mini+ a few days ago and already thinking about a couch device like the RG556 or maybe the new Cube. We'll see :D
Mobile exclusive for Apple, so we won’t see an Android port unfortunately. 😭 This usually happens when Apple locks down games for their Apple Arcade platform.
Never owned a device like this one. Do you have to download and install all of the different emulators from online to play anything? Or does the 556 come with some preloaded already? I recently bought one of these as a gift for someone but now I'm thinking that this might be too technical for them to carry out. I did also buy a separate SD card with a ton of games on it already but now I'm a little worried if they can be played simply by inserting the SD card then jumping right in.
I picked up the pre loaded variant on Amazon. Comes with over 4400 games across every retro console up to and including PS2. Super happy with it, and it's a very deep and well rounded library.
Have you or anyone else you tried sports games, like Cricket 19 (switch emulation) or Don Bradman Cricket 14 (PC emulation) on the RG556? I'd really appreciate it man. I have one on the way, being new to handheld emulation. I figure PS 2 emulation of Cricket 07 would be pretty solid, given other PS 2 titles run well. But I'd like to one day try something from the 2010s through whichever emulator/system it would work with.
Hey! I'm following the same graphic resolution as you but can't seen to run the new Super Mario Bros U Deluxe. I've tried Suyu, Yuzu and now Sudachi... I did everything as in the video, even found out the specific files you didn't share for obvious reasons... is there something I'm missing? Dou you use a specific firmware/prod version? 18?
Is this current version of Sudachi better than the current version of Yuzu? Also is there a way to inject game updates and dlc in Sudachi for Android, similar to Yuzu for Android?
Great questions! It essentially picks up where Yuzu left off. Sudachi has added compatibility for newer releases like Paper Mario, Animal Well etc. but it doesn't invalidate the Yuzu releases. It's still worth experimenting if there are any differences between versions. Game updates/DLC work the same way as in Yuzu! You can go into advanced settings and then add DLC/Updates there as well as toggle them on and off as needed.
Are you trying to change resolution when in-game? Unfortunately, you have to set it before playing. You can do a per-game setting by holding down on the game icon and then setting the desired resolution.
i try to download, but i can't click the box ANDROID....i try with you link, but still same problem..only have WINDOW BOX, any suggestion so i can download it
That's weird, I just checked and it's working on my end. Here is a direct link to the github release: github.com/sudachi-emu/sudachi/releases/download/v1.0.2/sudachi-ea-release.apk
@@retrotechdad thank you. Git hub required a login for some reason but it still didn’t show anything. My 556 is acting up today. I may have to check updates.
Hey man someone pls reply my sudachi emulator is working perfectly just help me with 2 things. 1)How can i change aim sensitivity, i am playing zombie army 4 and the aim is terrible 2) How to save game progress from where i left
No one ever asks but curious where people like to get their roms? PB is meh, 1337 is ok too but lacks a good search for browsing or downloading huge packs of games. Anyone care to chime in some sites people might not know about?
If you want to pirate Switch games you can get a used Switch Lite and a MIG Switch for less than $200 and that will be much better than any Android emulation.
Have you tried out Switch emulation on the RG556?
Too poor
Not yet but thanks for this video, now I know what games to put on it.
You're very welcome!
😭😭😭
One day sir one day. At least I still have your videos. 🥲
Good to see that sw emulation lives on 🙂
Same here! It's so much fun to push these devices to do these kind of things.
Amen 🙌
I LOVE A Short Hike! =D It also plays pretty well on Winlator.
I knew it!!! It seems like a very Crystal kind of game. 🤗
It plays well in 450m
Prince of Persia The Lost Crown- nice game for many hours (works perfectly)
and Pokemon Shining Pearl works fine on the rg556

Can you test Lime3DS, Citra Enhanced, and the Pablo MK7 fork of Citra too?

Agreed, I'd love to see save states at some point!
U cant save any progress
@@loitersquadX yes I know, that's what I said.
@@anthonygomm4017 it was a question sowy
@@loitersquadX ah no worries sorry. No there isn't any save states. Would be great if there was.
What a fantastic video!
can't wait for the same video on the RP5

Aww, thank you so much for that! I really appreciate it. 🙏 The Cube should be arriving this week, I'm excited to explore some fun use cases for it. 🔥🔥
@@retrotechdad awesome. looking forward to your thoughts on it 🔥
😮😮😮🎉someone call yzu 😎there's a new sheriff in town
Really liked this video! I think it's time for one of these with android games again!
Fantastic video. very helpful
13:20 I guess the exclusivity is over coz I have Cat Quest 2 in my Epic Games store library. It was free to download from May 2-9

@@retrotechdad ohh I misconstrued what u meant then. That's a shame. I'm in the ecosystem and even I don't like Apple Arcade :(

The SD card does includes games to play with but the card is pretty fragile.

Hey! I'm following the same graphic resolution as you but can't seen to run the new Super Mario Bros U Deluxe. I've tried Suyu, Yuzu and now Sudachi... I did everything as in the video, even found out the specific files you didn't share for obvious reasons... is there something I'm missing? Dou you use a specific firmware/prod version? 18?
Is the game not launching at all? Which firmware are you using?
The game launches, I can click the L+R and the screen goes all black. I've tried with 17 and with 18...
Having same issue with screen going blank after title screen on new super Mario Bros u deluxe. Firmware=18.00 sudachi 1.02 and .5x rez. Any thoughts?
You need to install, title.keys

Did they take the Android version of this emulator down? Only Windows is available for download.
Yea, it looks like the other builds are temporarily not available from the official site.
I love that many of these games are playable on vita
Vita is GOAT. 🔥
Great tutorial! Although I cannot change the resolution (greyed out). Do you know what might be issue there?
Are you trying to change resolution when in-game? Unfortunately, you have to set it before playing. You can do a per-game setting by holding down on the game icon and then setting the desired resolution.
Hi thx for good guide!
Wondering if it works with oneplus pad 2 (if the pad can handle it)?
It has a snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and 12 GB ram.
That is an outstanding mobile processor for gaming. It is miles ahead of unisoc. You can find other yt videos using this processor or gen1/2 with emu.
@@tendosingh5682 thx for info 👍🏽
i try to download, but i can't click the box ANDROID....i try with you link, but still same problem..only have WINDOW BOX, any suggestion so i can download it
The Android version is no longer available on their website directly. You will have to Google for an older build of Sudachi. 🙏
Without save states , it's difficult to pick up and carry on your games on the fly.
As of today I get a 404 message when clicking on the android link. Not sure if I’m doing something wrong.
That's weird, I just checked and it's working on my end. Here is a direct link to the github release: github.com/sudachi-emu/sudachi/releases/download/v1.0.2/sudachi-ea-release.apk
@@retrotechdad thank you. Git hub required a login for some reason but it still didn’t show anything. My 556 is acting up today. I may have to check updates.
How well do games run. Is it worth it. I run my games on PC. But ha Ving a device which is much cheaper, makes me want to buy it if worth it.
Hi! Would you be able to test Unicorn Overlord?
i got the rg556 and turn based genre fan,do you have few suggestion which switch turn based game rg556 can emulate
@doski7757 thanks for suggestion ,for sure ill check it.
Does the console get hot after hours of playing switch games with high visuals (3d games)?
Wish I’d see BOTW or TOTK be on this list someday
Is it safe to say that all these games will run full on an Odin 2?
Yes, for sure! Compatibility is so much better with the Snapdragon and of course just more power under the hood. 🙏
Will this work on the RG cube? 🤔
Yes, should be similar! The same goes for the RG406V. 🙏🙏
What résolution on rgcube please?
@@mustomax I kept native resolution, testing different games…
Hey man someone pls reply my sudachi emulator is working perfectly just help me with 2 things.
1)How can i change aim sensitivity, i am playing zombie army 4 and the aim is terrible
2) How to save game progress from where i left
1 - Have you tried adjusting the sensitivity in the game itself?
2 - Sudachi doesn't have save states, so you have to rely on the game to save.
TeamRetrogue? I’m in
😅😅He's a beautiful man.
Is it possible to run switch game hacks such as Luminescent Platinum?
Can you help me with something my ps2 games are not showing up
does this frameskip or slowdown with low framerate?
can you please provide one like ths for RG40??
🥇
👏👏
Do i need to install firmware, i cant play mario bros u deluxe
Name of the intro track?
Use open gl backend its slower than vulcan but more stable
please can u do cloud streaming using rg 556??
How do I get the prod key?

What about vita3k?
There's going to be A LOT of Vita3k in my next video. The device heavily inspires it. 😉
Please try sudachi on odin pro 845 version
Does it play the kirby games?
Totk is it work ?
🎉🎉🎉
What about rgcube?
It should be pretty similar results since it’s the same chip. 🙏
@@retrotechdad what resolution should we use please?
metroid dread would be running fine
HOW ABOUT POKEMON SWORD?
I'm surprised that the 556 can run switch.
so is this the best current emu for switch? im thinking of getting the abernic rg556 and wonder if this would work on it?
U tried cuphead?
İt have pokemon lets go pikachu or pokemon x
you should try cobra kai

Does switch lite emulates ps2 like rg556?
Guys should read the reddits. These anbernics have Lotta hardware issues. I won't buy for now. Switch games don't run so great BTW.
Switch emulation is dead. Switch is almost dead
Switch 2 will be fighting an uphill battle
