Ten Things You Need to Know about Anbernic RG351 Handheld

With so many great videos on this neat emulation hand held, I wanted to do something different. So let's take a look at things I feel are under represented on other videos and reviews.

If you have any questions, would like to see certain games or systems run (and you can't find them anywhere else) I'd be happy to do a follow up just showing pure emulation play.

Fantastic dive on this one Shane, it's on my wishlist now.

I’ve mapped the back buttons to control the tank on Battle Zone with the fire button up front. Have a crack at it as I find it better than the old school twin sticks in the arcades. Great video and G’day from us down under mate 🙃

Only issue with my 351mp was it would refuse to load any OS or recognize other SD cards at all. This is a somewhat common defect and thankfully Amazon refunded mine and after getting a 2nd unit, it's running 351elec flawlessly. Same with the other 400 GB SD card. If anyone has issues using another OS or other SD cards, it is a defect and needs to be returned.

Now I am very satisfied with this little console. Online disappointed it isnt more powerful to match the build quality of the mp model. Probably one of the best devices built and feels very premium.

It's kinda specific but did you test the sleep mode on this device? I heard it can be quite unstable and crash after coming back to the game...

Does 351elec come with a game&watch emulator? Where can I find the roms? Appear a little difficult to find.

[Ian-urwd]

Can you help me I do. Not. Know how to save

[dgsdigs]

Been loving my RG351v, and I like the format you've represented it with here. I look forward to exploring other videos you have produced.

[adamc.]

damn several months out and rg351v is STILL getting reviews. this model really did put the anbernic on the map for a lot of people who never heard of them.

[JWG.LLC_The_Artist]

Yep! sd card died. Replacemed it put a fresh copy of emulec and I've been enjoying it ever sence. Melinals like it too

[wallacegentry]

Most emulators support saves, but be warned that some do not. This is across the board though with retro handhelds.

[fullcircleretrospective]

Great video, thanks. Question about the retro achievements. Can those track across multiple devices if the credentials match?

[noahreimel]

Do you know how to save and save your Pokémon game and go back to the main menu can you please make a video about it?

[ghostly]

Even though I prefer playing games on original hardware, I've been too busy for weeks to get a chance to enjoy my game room. This thing seems to be a terrific plan B until I get my free time back. Can't wait till mine gets delivered.

[victormercado]

By chance do you have the valid img file to post and by chance did yours need "RG351V display driver?" My original SD card was corrupted. Look forward to your response.

[relaxationmeditation]

How do you leave games on it? I’ve tried everything and it doesn’t seem to work

[PKInTheUniverse]

Great list! I didn’t know about the retro achievements, that’s awesome! I’ve been watching videos about this all morning. I’m really excited to get it.

[liquidlx]

Great video! What emulationstation theme were you using at 4:46 ? It looks really nice

[johnwest]

Is it possible to connect it to a monitor with USB C to HDMI?

[SicketMog]

Would it be worth getting one of these now? Already have the RG351P but using an outdated (but ready) image on it and figured it'd be better to get one of these (like the form factor + built in wifi = no soldering is a +) and add the ports missing to it. Or better to go for the 353 or wait for another one?

[ElevenGamer]

It's weird how nothing seems to be able to do AGA 68020 correctly.
