The RG Rotate is a spinning handheld with some unique features!

The Anbernic RG Rotate is a handheld emulator designed for running systems like Playstation, Nintendo DS, GBA/SNES, PSP, and maybe even some light Gamecube & Nintendo 3DS! It's a small cube with serious performance under the hood: the perfect pocket companion on paper.
But it's far from perfect. There's software bugs, hardware bottlenecks, d-pad issues and awful audio decisions that keep it from spinning through the gates of Valhalla and becoming the BEST POCKET HANDHELD OF ALL TIME (for me...)
Let's deep dive into the RG Rotate and see if it's worth the hype. Enjoy the video!
