RG350M Review - Should You Upgrade From The RG350?

RG350M Review - Should You Upgrade From The RG350?

The RG350M is a fantastic follow up to last year's smash hit the RG350 handheld. With its sturdy aluminum outer casing, new updated IPS display, and the newly redesigned button layout and lower profile analog sticks, it's a certainly the emulation console any gamer would love to own. However, current owners of the RG350 would likely do best to save their money and refrain from upgrading.

My favorite retro video game of all time is Super Mario World for the SNES. My aunt passed away when I was 10. She was a gamer and just purchased the SNES when it came out. She always had to have the latest console. She and I used to game together. She called me up one day to come over and surprise me that she purchased the SNES and we used to play together for hours. She was the reason that I am so passionate about gaming today!

Handheld Battle.... FIGHT
I love the RG350M... great handheld.
Yeah agree... not a huge upgrade from the normal RG350.
Still... it's better in some ways...
My favorite game.. Streets of Rage.. play the remake all the time on the RG350M.

I would have definitely picked up the rg350m if I didn't already have the rg350 original. Hoping next one will have the hardware upgrades!

Thanks for the review! I enjoyed watching and listening to the comparison between the two models.

Great video man. Honestly the new metal shell and movement of those joysticks make for a much needed improvement

Firstly thanks for the video. I still own my gameboy pocket which I've had for 20 years now and my favourite retro handheld game I still own is Pokémon Yellow. It was cool to have pikachu actually follow you around. If it was favourite retro game of all time it would be a tie between Zelda Ocarina of Time on N64 & Streets of Rage 1 on megadrive. The soundtrack for SoR is still amazing.

My favorite retro title has to be Super Castlevania IV, it's always a must for a Halloween title to play through!
Thanks for the video and give away too, I've seen a dozen or so videos on the RG350M and you've definitely gone through the most detail!

One of my favorites that comes to mind right now is Donkey Kong 3.

[zachyboy]

Thanks for the comparison review! Now i know what handheld i will buy.

I just found out about this & have been wanting to play Metal Gear Solid 1 all day... I think this is a sign!

Nice review. One thing that I think people should note is that the RG350M is 2 times the resolution/pixel density of the RG350. Meaning games will be more pixel perfect/less blurred when scaled to fill the screen. I'm not sure whether more pixels/higher res also decreases the speed noticably in games, however. That's something someone should test - framerates on the original vs. the 350m. SOMEONE should do a video comparison... hint. hint.

My all-time favourite is definitely Pokémon Emerald. The game really blew my mind back when I was a kid.

[fiallypondaag]

I already have the RG350 but I don't think it's a good idea to upgrade to metal version.. if they release a better internal specs that could play higher emulator then it's a yes from me.

Mole Mania for the Gameboy, it's a true gem that's usually overlooked.

[DIRTYYETTI]

Been looking at getting a portable emulator for some time since my psp broke. Great review.

[wesleydub]

is the NES game nintendo world cup pre installed on this device?

[bzzvideo]

Great bit of kit, RG350. I love playing Ghouls & Ghosts or Ghost & Goblins on it.

[jasonwood]

I grew up playing the Nintendo Game Boy. Wish it would have been in color instead of black and white though! Thanx for the video!

[thadcruz]

Another great video review. Love the Final fight background btw. Gotta say Nintendo gameboy for me cause it was my first hand held game console. I did paper deliveries and lawn mowing jobs so I can save up the money to get my hands on one. Lol. Good times.
