That’s what the GPD WIN 3 Mini Laptop is. Imagine a Nintendo 3DS with the power of a gaming PC. They’re awful, of course, but it’s still a testament to how powerful the Retroid Pocket 2 Plus is that that’s even possible. You can also, technically, get GameCube and PS2 games running on this thing. It’s not perfect by any means, but it’s in a state where you can play N64 and Dreamcast and not feel like you’re wasting your time.

Where the Retroid Pocket 2 Plus leaves Anbernic devices for dead, however, is when it comes to N64 and Dreamcast emulation.

As with the RG35X series, up to PS1 is near flawless across the board. The Retroid Pocket 2 is a comfortable device to play on, and the button layout and trigger placement are some of the best in the industry.Īs for compatibility, that’s where things get interesting. Where this device differs, though, is in the build quality and compatibility. In short, this console sits in the same bracket as the Anbernic RG35X series – it’s a pocket-sized handheld with a 3.5-inch screen.

The Retroid Pocket 2 Plus is an upgrade to the original Retroid Pocket, and boy have they given this thing some serious power.
