@5:45 - was waiting for the "yeah man, I want to do this"... excellent video as always and thanks for your hard work

[guitarsimon]

Damn, it’s looking more and more every day the dual-boot route was totally the right way to go for Anbernic.

I’m on vacation but I always got time for a Retro Game Corp video

[ejc]

You always have the best "how to" videos.

[LockeLeon]

Just the perfect timing because I was about to go to the WC.

Neat tweaking! I really can't justify another handheld but appreciate the tips. Happy Holidays to you and yours.

Mine came in the mail about 30 minutes before this video was posted. Love it.

[CthulhuCrisis]

Thank you so very much! I ordered mine yesterday and was really hoping you'd do this :)

[misterkeebler]

Thank you for this. Mine should be arriving in the next week and this will definitely be a time saver for me to enjoy the older consoles.

[JackOusley]

I agree, I've never seen SNES look so good!

[elliottyourse]

Thank you for this custom build. As someone that mainly wants to play 8bit, 16bit, most 90s arcade games, and some Dreamcast… I’m loving this device! That screen is truly something else! I also own a 280v and a 351MP.

[lesgagnon]

AGAIN!!!.... Another great video. Thanks so much, I am now going to order one! As always great work!!

[slogan]

Fantastic guide and review. I have some new SD Cards on order and can't wait to try

[ALIEN]

Awesome... THANKS for this configurated image, I was getting crazy on how to change the hot-key, now is so much convenient... GREAT WORK. It really helps until custom firmware arrives.

I missed CHICKEN today... 🐈

[TheSkitz]

I will be buying my first emulation dedicated handheld so im binging your video atm

[segaprophet]

Thanks for your work on the guide and your firmware tweaks. My RG552 is coming by mail tomorrow or the next day and I'll be employing the firmware image immediately.

[alexkid]

Always first class ! You are an awesome person !

[trevorbrent]

Appreciate your work! Much better than stock image!

[pauleccleston]

Yeah man, I really wanna do it 😁 love this in all you videos

[youzernejm]

New retro intro looks great. I wish you a quick delivery of RP2+ and Steam deck, so you can compare these devices. Maybe a side by side comparison with your modded X18s?
