Contact me via email ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ I finally got my hands on the Anbernic RG40xxV (0:00), the bigger, vertical-format brother to my beloved daily driver, the RG35XX Plus. I promised a full review, but I have a major problem: I haven't used it! This video is a pre-review reflection on why portability consistently beats power when choosing a dedicated tool for mental health breaks (2:07). The RG40xxV Paradox (1:05): The Problem of Size (1:38): The RG40xxV is simply too big to comfortably fit in my pants pocket (2:40), making it less convenient than the RG35XX Plus. Since I only play in short, 10-30 minute bursts for a mental reset (3:10), the best device is the one I always have with me. The Good Points: Objectively, the RG40xxV has great ergonomics (3:10) and a much-appreciated bigger screen (3:37)—great for my over-40 eyes. Analog Stick Difficulty (4:17): I also note the analog stick (3:37) is not a true 360-degree analog control but rather a digital 8-direction stick (4:49). While this is a minor issue since I stick to older retro gaming (Super Nintendo, Genesis, GBA) (5:57), it shows its limitations for higher-end emulation like Dreamcast or PlayStation 1 (6:32). Community Question: Dedicated System Strategy (7:08): I've seen a trend among other retro gaming channels: dedicating a specific device to a specific console (e.g., using a small device only for Game Boy or Pokémon) (7:08). Since the RG405V isn't working as my pocket companion, I want to dedicate it to a system that warrants its size/screen. 🤔 What system should I dedicate my Anbernic RG40xxV to? (8:32) 🤔 What games should I play on that dedicated system? Let me know in the comments below! Should I use it for Dreamcast? PlayStation 1? Something else? Help me utilize this device more! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:00 - Introduction to the Anbernic RG40xxV 1:05 - Why this is not a full review yet 1:38 - Size Comparison: RG40xxV vs. RG35XX Plus 2:40 - The problem of pocketability and daily carry 3:10 - Good ergonomics vs. short play sessions 3:37 - Great bigger screen for older eyes 4:17 - Discussion on the 8-directional analog stick 5:57 - Why I stick to older retro emulation 7:08 - The trend of dedicated systems per device 8:05 - Asking for community help: What should I dedicate the RG40xxV to? 9:31 - Final thoughts on form factor preference 10:07 - Outro ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
