I’m really happy with this thing. I was considering getting the RG SP but it was a solid $20-30 more expensive, since it’s the newest model. Meanwhile, good offers were being made for the 34XX-SP which is basically the same device.

Initial impressions:

  • The yellow model looks great IRL. It’s less saturated than in the picture.
  • 4:3 games are really not that small on the screen, the bezels aren’t an issue like everyone says they are.
  • Controls are great, they’re clicky but not annoying or loud. The bumpers are way better than the ones in the RG35XX-H. I’m surprised how much I love the thin D-pad. The only thing I actively dislike is how loud the function button is.

    These things are pretty cheap though. I think the trend is towards grabbing different handhelds for different systems, rather than trying to find The One Handheld to Rule Them All.

      Yeah I have many for different purposes like the RG CubeXX just for classic 3:4 arcades like Pacman and SpaceInvaders. Which is why a N64 specific would be nice given the CPU can do N64 before you need to make compromises.
