I just ordered one today and looks solid I love the size I had Odin light and wasn't a fan of the anologs. I prefer 480 screen as long screen seems like the games stretch. So what games have u been playing on the 2 s ? I wanna play old games up to gamecube and PS2. I don't think I want Wii and 3ds games. Idk if u tried those on 2s but is it worth playing those two on it? If so what games do you recommend.
@@5part4 it matters how much ur going to pay for the 2+ but the 2s is a great upgrade, it allows u to enjoy n64 to basically perfection, and minimum gamecube library (light games) at 1x. The 2s controlls are also just way better and more comfortable and better sound quality.
Why does my dolphin not have the same settings? For example the lowest internal resolution setting i have is 1 😢 theres a few other options mine doesnt even have too yet ive downloaded the latest version
It depends which dolphin you are using, if they are all up to date, depending on the version the settings are different. Theres dolphin for handheld which comes with retroids own updates to the code, and mmJR2 which most people prefer, and Dolphin official like on the appstore. In the video im using retroids dolphin for handheld that u download on the wizard start up when ur putting the timezone and stuff
@@SpoonTaco yea thats weird i downloaded from the wizard yesterday, then even downloaded the latest version from their website and neither have the option to lower the internal resolution below 1. I think thats all thats stopping the device run perfectly smoothly as with everything else set similarly to yours, double dash is playable but has slow downs at 1 internal resolution. Im stumped 🫤
May I ask why 5x internal resolution? The rp2s screen is 480. Wouldn't running at a higher resolution then the screen be pointless and also hurt performance?
Its not 5x its .5x which is half the resolution to look like a ds game aesthetic, i probably said it wrong lol. If u want 1x best to use the dolphin emulator from the playstore thats the best emulator rn but u can scale down resolution thats the only downside
@@SpoonTacoYou can go all the way to 3x native for windwaker on balance but for less heavy weight games like double dash you can even go to 5x native but you wont see the 5x.
Thanks for the helpful guide, I’ve got a question though at this point I’ve had my rp2s for around 2 weeks and had no issues with other emulators, any version of dolphin doesn’t want to work for me. For example whenever I use dolphin for handheld and try to put games and click “allow” it just ends up crashing and no games get added
I highly recommend using Dijasho as a front end. Try using it with excessive scraping on to sync. This unpacked and allowed me to play quite a few emulators that I couldn't seem to get working otherwise
@@joeymkflurray thanks for the response I’ve got dajisho installed now however I don’t know how to access my external storage (sd cards) files in dajisho, by any chance do you know how?
If you add paths, you should be able to select the external storage on the left hand side underneath where it shows the console storage. After this if you Sync then it should sort this for you
where to get mmJR2 specifically for Twilight Princess. I can't find it anywhere now. I ran this whole setup only to notice this wouldnt work specifically for that game lol
Yeah sorry about that lol, i had gotten just the latest version online of mmJR2/ the same one that gets pre installed on ur startup wizard. So instead of "Dolphin for handheld" u have to use mmJR2 which is the purple one
Also there is a specific setting u have to turn off or on or else the game wont load. I forgot what it was so ill let u know when i get out of work 👍 but ik for sure use Vulkan
So i just looked and im guessing they took it off the app store, u can probably download the apk online let me find a link, and which dolphin emulator do u mean?
I also dropped me 2s, and not even from a high spot, pretty lovmw and below my bed. I opened it, t6 disbt work and t5 worked. My right one looka the same to the right one in magnet. Yet its still wrak. I just wanna keep playing silent hill 3 and minecraft god damnit!!
@SpoonTaco I think the spring thing like loosend or something, cuz it's circle grasp around the plastic has widend compared to the one that actually works and has tension
Yeah, u just tap on the (3 bars) top right, go to (profiles), then click (controller), add a new one and give it a name and any description and map ur buttons, after make sure to go to (profiles) again and click (select Profiles), choose (controller 1 Profile) and assign the one u made
@@SpoonTacoI just ordered one today and wanted play sum GameCube games like Metroid Zelda and Luigi mansion and resident evil 1 thru 4 and metal gears smash brother Mario kart. And like see sum n64 games and settings be much appreciated. I got the 4 gig model.
@@khoalacake usually those crashes have to do with using open gl, or one hack setting is making it crash completely, ik twilight princess wont open at all if u have texture decoding on
2:40 is when i talk about GameCube set up, sorry forgot to make a timestamp, also overclock is best at 80 not 75, my bad
I love my 2S, especially those damn sticks lol.

How different or better are they compare to pocket 2plus ? I'm getting a 2plus as my first handheld upgrading from my ambernic

@@5part4 tbh now a days, the 2+ should be worth $50 max so if ur going to pay something like $70-$80 just go for the 2s 👍
this was mad helpful, thank you

@pierrezapata90 so i found the setting, turn off gpu texture decoding, that doesnt allow the game to boot
Do you have links for the dolphin mk and the turbo editor?
So i just looked and im guessing they took it off the app store, u can probably download the apk online let me find a link, and which dolphin emulator do u mean?
happymod.com/turbo-editor-pro-text-editor-mod/com.maskyn.fileeditorpro/original.html
The one you were talking about to play Zelda twilight, princess?
How do i get turbo editor?
Do you have a discord or anything? I’m still not seeing it.
I also dropped me 2s, and not even from a high spot, pretty lovmw and below my bed. I opened it, t6 disbt work and t5 worked. My right one looka the same to the right one in magnet. Yet its still wrak. I just wanna keep playing silent hill 3 and minecraft god damnit!!
If the magnets are fine and u fixed it but the pressure still wont work, u can go to settings and switch the R2 and L2 from analog to digital

@@CarlosDiaz-fs6cv dang, so it doesn't sense the trigger at all?
Do you know how to change the buttons on the Nintendo 64 emulator?

@@SpoonTacoI’m not seeing the three bars, bud. I’m using m64 plus fz. Are you using a different emulator?😊
@@ahumblepoet my bad, top left inside the app home menu, it says search roms next to it
Found it!
@@SpoonTaco thanks so much!
Why wouldn't you show the games playing?
I want to show in depth vixeos on how they run, like half the video show u guys the only bad thing, and the rest the good
If u want to know a specific game let me know
It was click bait and he got you. Don’t worry he wasted my time too…

Amazon and aliexpress :)
This made the GameCube crash in the middle of playing. Now there’s no reset to default settings option
What game were u playing
@@SpoonTaco it happened with Harvest Moon and Custom Robo
@@khoalacake usually those crashes have to do with using open gl, or one hack setting is making it crash completely, ik twilight princess wont open at all if u have texture decoding on
