Powkiddy RGB30 Handheld Game Console Open Source Linux 16GB + 64GB TF Card 5G WiFi - White
Powkiddy RGB30 Main FeaturesThe Powkiddy RGB30 is a new horizontal format emulation device that uses a CPU that we have seen continously in the past couple of years – the Rockchip RK3566 for example the Powkiddy RK2023 and the Anbernic RG353M to name a few obvious adjacent handhelds. Using this well tested chipset means that there are going to be solid firmware solutions available on day one. The chip comfortably plays retro consoles up to 64-bits namely Nintendo 64 Dreamcast and PSP will run smoothly. It also plays Nintendo DS quite well and the unique 720×720 display means you can play with the dual screens stacked vertically and it looks great. The RGB30 also handles 16-bit and 32-bit consoles like SNES NES Sega Genesis and Arcade a breeze. 3.5 inch screens with a 4×3 format have been the most popular way to play retro video games on emulators for a couple of years now. But you’d probably be surprised to know that 4×3 content on the RGB30’s 4 inch screen is actually a tiny bit larger than what it would be on a 3.5 inch screen.Large display formatted for retro consolesGreat day one Linux firmwareA niche product that will inspire more deviationWhere the RGB30 truly shines is in 8-bit era handheld consoles like Game Boy Game Boy Color and the Neo Geo Pocket. Because those consoles are able to take advantage of the square format screen the most. The clear winner for the best console to play on the Powkiddy RGB30 absolutely has to be the Pico-8 fantasy console. Pico-8 is a square format system that runs very well on Linux based emulators. And there is a large library of free games available to play. If you only bought the RGB30 for Pico-8 it would still be well worth the purchase. And unlike the Powkiddy Max3 and the RK2023 the RGB30 comes with built-in WIFI for game box art downloading retro achievements and access to the Pico-8 “SPLORE” game browser.Powkiddy RGB30 sports a unique 4 inch square format display which makes it an absolutely perfect device for early retro handheld console emulation especially anything 8-bit.
