(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm not impressed with it.

I don't want to sound rude but what made you go ahead with paying $600 for that and not the zillion other better alternatives?

Actually I got it at a charity event. It was being auction off for my local Boys and Girls Club. ( I was a member when I was young, and I try to always give back to them) My bid was the winning one at 220.00. I thought they this was like the Steam Deck, or ROG deck, but this runs on Android and can't play PC games.

You can still get a lot of mileage out of it for gaming. You can play high-end games from the Play Store and use it as a pretty decent emulation device, all the way up to 6th-gen consoles. It's compatible with Xbox Cloud gaming too.

The Xbox Cloud gaming is fantastic. Being able to play some of my games on here is great. Halo and GOW runs pretty good. I see I can put a GC, PS2 and Dreamcast on here so I'm going to try it out. My main emulator device is a PS Vita right now, and that's working out good for me.

Is there something wrong with my Vita? I keep hearing how it's an amazing emulation device but everything runs like ass on it and every emulator drains the battery like crazy.

Which one do you have? The fat or the slim?

Vita slim, plus I usually play games with airplane mode turned on to conserve battery. RetroArch is extremely sluggish on my device and most standalone emulators run like crap.
