Jack of all trades, beautiful screen and enough 'umph' for most retro games
Disclaimer: I own a handful or more different portable systems as well as nearly countless devices that Games can be played on.What we have here is a 'jack of all trades'. With the fairly large number of emulators included this device can run just about any dated/retro game. The Android13 & playstore allows owners to install and play Android games and with the inclusion of Steam and/or Moonshine, the owner can Stream PC games to this device!While not the most powerful (or expensive) HORIZONTAL 'retro' system available, the T820+8GB RAM provides enough 'umph' to run most PS2 games tossed at it, the 5G WiFi allows speedy streaming from other devices and the bright OLED screen looks awesome while playing.IMHO: The device size is "just right", not to big/small nor to heavy for extended game play sessions.The included buttons/menu system is simple and easy to use. Just note that if you wish to replace or install a larger SD card, it helps if you format the card in THIS DEVICE before adding to it (via another device).Ergonomics fit the hands well, good button/stick placement and contours of the case fit well.Frankly, while I tend to like the classic vertical 'Gameboy' like form factor better than horizontal ones, this is a bit larger than a 3DS but smaller & lighter than a Switch or Ally. I'd rather play on this over the latter two devices.Ok enough of the 'good' here's the not-so-good: while the RG556 is a decent system, the developers did not bother to set the DEFAULT control scheme on each emulator to the physical buttons+sticks on the device itself. Thus forcing the user to dive into the settings to get rid of 'on screen' controls (only useful for systems that DON'T have physical buttons or analog sticks!!)Also (and THIS goes with ANY 'retro' device) knowing what button does what can be very frustrating!! I usually open a game, look to its in game settings along with a "push and see" discovery of which buttons do what. Worth noting is that while games can "run", they may not of been natively very "smooth" to begin with. Many 'retro' games/systems and entire series had rather 'clunky' controls back in the day. Not really an issue with the RG556 or other retro systems.While outside of the games my RG556 came with I've mostly tossed at it 'dual stick' games as the GBA and lessor systems can easily be emulated on weaker and less expensive devices. :)

Not a good experience
This must have been pre-owned, as soon as I was setting up it kept taking screenshots and when I went to the files to delete it had numerous other screenshots, also the speaker was raspy and headset wouldn't connect

Great device. But hardly any games pre downloaded.
This seems awesome! Works well. But didn't come with very many games and im not tech savvy enough to know how even as im learning how its still difficult for me to try and download games.

Great console, everything i was expecting. Super easy to use, come with games. The emulation of Ps2 and Gamecube were FOR ME the best feature of this console. Great joystick's🔥🔥🔥🔥

ARRIVED WITHOUT THE ACTUAL GAMES MEMORY CARD
I was so looking forward to receiving my games console. A friend started helping me set it all up, only to discover the most crucial component was missing from the delivery - the memory card containing all the games! I requested the memory card get sent to me and was told it can't come as a separate piece and I therefore had to return the entire console and am too nervous to order a new one in case the same issue happens again. Can't feedback on the actual device sadly but of the overall experience.

Analog stick could use some work
this an amazing handheld. Although I think the analog sticks have snapping to the cardinal directions and it's not evident until you start playing games like Mario Sunshine on it. it isn't easy to have Mario walk slowly and he immediately starts running. it takes some getting used to it but overall I think this is a great introductory device for any gamer in the family.
