As much as I love Austin Evans and Matt from This Is, it's nice to have reviews of this from people who know what a Retroid and an Anbernic are.

[kirbythingys]

I think Bob Wulff and Wulffden should do a collab theyd probably work well together

[leelanzini]

Dude it’s crazy to think how ahead of it’s time the PSP and PS Vita were. The Vita even had a OLED display. Sony really was onto something but then forgot about it… then the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck became a thing. Can you imagine a modern PS Vita? It would be amazing

[robotortoise]

As an indie dev - yes, absolutely! More devs should port to Android, especially when they're using an engine like Unity or Ren'py, that natively support it. I know I did that for the visual novel I developed.

I don't think anyone mentioned it yet, but the Kishi V2 bundled with the Edge is different from the one Razer sells separately. The standalone version doesn't have a 3.5mm port, haptics or vents for the Edge's speakers.

The kishi v2 is basically just a backbone controller. I use that for remote play on Xbox on PlayStation. Works like a dream

[TalonsRebellion]

Already was a Verizon member and got a deal for it for $10/ 36 months. So, just $360. It's been great for youtube and streaming, though. I think a lot of people are comparing it to other handhelds, but realistically, it's just a very portable tablet. Great for android games, has hardly any issues with emulation up to PS2 games, absolutely fantastic for GameCube and PSP games. Yes, I could get a steam deck, but being able to whip it out anywhere with internet connection everywhere has been its defining feature for me.

that sf3 music as the intro was just perfect

Sony needs to make another handheld...I wish 🥺

[xXZombieHunterXx]

I can't believe how much Razer Kishi took from Backbone on the V2 version, they look identical now

[GoldenTK]

The really just said, “Let’s take our phone that failed and try to make an expensive ‘emulation’ machine.” Razor is so frustrating. Lol

[RichieAnthonyGuitar]

Did not expect to hear music from third strike today. What a great day.

[mhtweeter]

for switch emulation on android, update to the latest version of skyline(if youre willing to pay for skyline edge you can performance improvements early) and use the custom snapdragon drivers. youll get better compatibility and better performance

[aussieknuckles]

"it looked sick, but not a cool kind of sick, it looked I'll, like I've got to take it to the hospital"

Lmao

[iporush]

i can see their commercials now! " get your edge on"

[extra]

It’s wild to me that these mobile phone controllers are $100 and people just accept it when higher quality first party Xbox/PlayStation controllers are $70

[LFC_since]

Razor… Edge… I see what they did there…

[abdullaal-naimi]

The big idea behind the Razer Edge and the new Snapdragon G3X SoC is to push Android gaming to the next level. There's supposed to be an SDK released alongside the G3X as well.

I'm not sure how much they're sticking to that original vision, but it would be nice if Android as a platform moved past the current mobile gaming market trends.

So to get around the lack of a back button I go on to the system setting and change the gesture setting to 3 button navigation. The when swipe up u get a on screen back, home, and active app button. Also with skyline you need to pick the right custom drivers from their discord. I recommend the 615 ones. I’m not sure why you didn’t use the built in virtual controller option for call of duty? The current biggest flaw with the edge right now is that the sd card slot is limited to fat32 which means a lot of switch and wii games will not fit on the card as it is limited to 4gig files. What I really like about the edge is the flexibility between gaming hand held and android tablet. I also use iPhone now so it is nice to have a side android tablet to keep everything I picked up with I was in the ecosystem and use without the controller as a e reader, media device, and controller. Digital board game ports also look really good on it as long as they are optimized for modern phone screens.

Steam deck can actually run wii U games I think which is actually cool because nintendo land was never ported to switch, and there are instances where the steam deck gyro can emulate the dual screens with an external display.
