GKD Bubble Review: Game Gear Vibes

Retro Game Corps 2024-10-18 | The GKD Bubble certainly looks like a smaller version of the Sega Game Gear, and it has enough power to play through most of your retro gaming catalog. But in a crowded market, is a nostalgic design enough to compete at the $75 price point?

The Best Switch Controller is a Phone Controller

Retro Game Corps 2024-10-08 | The GameSir G8 Plus is an excellent Bluetooth telescopic controller for your phone or tablet; but what I didn't expect is that it's actually my favorite way to play the Nintendo Switch in handheld mode too. When you factor in its price (MSRP $80, the same as a set of official Joy-Cons) along with wide compatibility, it's easily one of the best controller purchases out there.

AYANEO Pocket Micro Review: STUNNING

Retro Game Corps 2024-09-28 | AYANEO's latest handheld is a small, premium device that features 4x integer scaling for GBA games. But unexpectedly, this screen also provides a pitch-perfect image for other beloved retro consoles, including NES, SNES, and Genesis. Let's do a deep-dive review and demonstrate how the Pocket Micro surprised me, and is quickly becoming one of my favorite premium retro handhelds of the year.

G7 Ti Review: Tall & Powerful (Just Like Me)

Retro Game Corps 2024-08-24 | The new MinisForum (AtomMan) G7 Ti is their latest flagship mini PC, with the most recent 14th Gen Intel Core processor, an RTX 4070 mobile GPU, and a reasonable price compared to the competition. But it is also the result of some head-scratching design decisions that don't fully match its potential (and price tag). Time to investigate!

External GPUs Kinda Suck (But This One Doesnt)

Retro Game Corps 2024-08-07 | The MinisForum DEG1 is the first external GPU dock that I've found to be truly exciting: it has an Oculink connection, works with any desktop GPU and power supply, and is only $99. But there's one catch -- it *only* works with Oculink-capable devices. Let's take a look at this dock and the state of eGPUs altogether.

SteamOS on Handheld PCs! Bazzite Setup Guide

Retro Game Corps 2024-07-30 | This guide will show you how to install and dual-boot Bazzite on your Windows-based handheld so that you get the best of both worlds -- all the comforts the Steam Deck console experience, but the ability to also play Windows games that don't work on SteamOS. For this guide we'll focus on the ASUS ROG Ally X, but you can use just about any handheld PC, including the Lenovo Legion Go. This setup has transformed my ROG Ally X into a true Steam Deck replacement!

** Note: if you want to share a microSD card between Windows/Linux Steam games, the card needs to be formatted to exFAT so both operating systems can read it. I recommend setting up the card on your Windows partition first to make it seamless. From there you can install and play games from either side.

ASUS ROG Ally X Review: Have it Your Way

Retro Game Corps 2024-07-22 | The ASUS ROG Ally X has finally been released, so let's do a deep dive focusing on performance, battery life, and my overall gaming experience of using this handheld PC over the past month. Long story short: this is a handheld whose battery life and performance enables you to play games on your own terms, and that cannot be said about many others on the market.

GPD G1 review: youtu.be/x0HmCAmBpow?si=W3FKW6vYknNnZSiM

** Note that in my testing, I think my audio drivers were hosed. I had to force some AMD driver updates to get the eGPU working, and when uninstalling those drivers to revert back to stock, I think I also nuked the audio drivers, which is why they were so quiet in my testing. Other reviewers are not having the same volume issues as me, so that's likely the culprit. **

Impressive $40 GBA Handheld PowKiddy V10

Anbernic RG40XX H: Big Screen!

Retro Game Corps 2024-07-09 | The new Anbernic RG40XX H is mostly more of the same: same H700 chip, same form factor, same software experience. But it also has some subtle improvements, like a 4-inch 4:3 display, stacked triggers, and RGB lighting. So let's take a deep-dive look at this handheld and see if it'll be a good option for you.
