Best Retro Handheld

[chrismscotland]

I've held off, for now.

Does anyone know if its possible to clone or copy storage from one Android device to another?
I've lost count of the amount of times i've setup emulators on different Android handhelds now, surely there is a quicker way than setting everything up again.
e.g. I would like to copy contents from my Odin 2 mini pro to Retroid pocket classic. Will probably end doing a new setup, at least its all fresh again then

Not sure to be honest, I made sure and backed up my games when I sold the Odin 2 but appreciate I'll need to setup the Emu's up fresh on the Odin 3

Emu setup isnt too hard but would be nice to take my Winlator container - that said the rp classic gpu is low end so wont be playing much 3d anyway.
Itll top out at Saturn and Dc i guess but could try a bit of 3d in Winlator

I have lost the love for my Retroid Pocket 5 at the moment as I think I have finished tinkering with it and now looking for the next thing. Will prolly sell it to make space for the Thor or the Odin 3

I received mine recently and have just downloaded some ROMs and emulators, going to watch some videos about Retroarch setup soon. It is more of a learning curve than I anticipated, but hopefully will be worth it!

Won't buying another handheld just be the same process though? Albeit different hardware

Yes pretty much and the various nuances between each of them. I think I spend more time setting up than actually playing games on it. At the moment having a mess about with the new version of GameHub which apparently has Steam cloud sync support, but I have yet to get it to work properly.

I tried some app and managed to login to steam on my odin 2 mini pro. I could see my games, but nothing launched (as it was apparently using an outdated version of winlator)

I went back to using winlator latest version where things run fine (just no steam connectivity)

What needs to happen is winlator development to add wifi & steam support, then it would work.

Unless you buy a non android handheld, yes. Also to note the retroid pocket 5 and mini support rocknix

I can only get Gamehub to down sync from Steam , but not up sync back to Steam cloud at the moment. But I got a feeling in a few more days , Gamehub will have cracked it

Sold my Razer Edge (grew tired of it not being all in one) and picked up Retroid Flip 2! I'm a sucker for a clamshell design
