PSP version of Ys ark of Napishtim. Have so many systems/games to play I tend to jump between games a lot but this one stuck with me, I loved it. Don’t know how many hours I spent in Canaan, but I had a great time getting to the end. Starting Ys seven now
i hope it performed better than the original port. it's really choppy on PSP compared to the PS2 version. did you know the PC people got fast travel in that port?! must be nice.
oh, I obviously played an inferior version - the thing is I still loved it. Didn't notice it running choppy but may have just dismissed it as emulation glitching. Fast travel would have been nice, but the "world" is not so big that you can't run from one side to the other in 5 minutes...
Cool - I can indeed click through to the link however my login does not follow. Am I supposed to be able to use the same account over there? Or am I supposed to make a new user, that seems a step too far...

How's the dpad and sticks on that thing, and how does it handle arcade and Saturn emulation? Those are kinds of games I'd really like to have in a handheld with this thing.
All the controls are great, nice clicky dpad and the sticks feel good with good range of motion and L3/R3 clicks work well. Saturn works well in the paid yaba sanshiro 2 emulator with some graphics glitches (Saturn emu is hard…) and I am playing baku baku and panzer dragoon. Haven’t tried arcade games but I imagine they would be good… I am able to run some ps2 games at 2x resolution 30fps - 3d games like FFX… this thing has guts. I’m able to carry all the retro games I ever wanted in my pocket.
That is true, but given the option to save up for a steam deck if you can, the difference in performance and capabilities is also a pretty gigantic leap.
Yeah I’m genuinely surprised how ergonomics don’t seem to be a factor in recommendations I see for the Steam Deck.
I tried to bring my Deck out and about with me, but after a couple of weeks I went running back to my OLED Switch. The Deck is fine for sitting around the house but I find it pretty cumbersome otherwise.
It’s fantastic, runs most psp games at 3x resolution. Also runs many ps2 and GameCube games playable, if not well. Dreamcast runs great, the screen is bright and colours are vibrant. I do want a steam deck to go with this for things that need a bit more power but this is pocketable and will be on me when I go out.
Retro Game Corps has a very in depth review on it, as well as other similar handhelds. This probably has the least compromises for a device of this price.
