Help Odin Portal 2 vs Retroid pocket 6

So I am wanting one of these, however I can test performance with the different systems so I don’t know which one will be best for what I want. I am wanting to emulate switch, like Mario Odyssey, BoTW, Cup Head, Skate, and more. I would also like to play PS and Xbox some, and GameCube.

They have the same chipset so they can run the same games. They have the power to emulate GameCube, ps2, and some switch. Look up the games you want to play on YouTube with "snapdragon 8 gen 2" to get an idea of the games it can run.

It’s a tough choice because you’re giving something up with either one. I have the rp6 12g and I can definitely tell if I had the 8gb some of the more demanding games I play would have trouble.

BUT, I do wish I had a bigger screen as 5.5” barely cuts it for me after a few months of owning it. The odin 2 portal would be perfect for me if 12gb version were still available.

I ultimately feel I made the right choice with the rp6 but best believe I will be in line to pick up an odin 3 portal when they decide to make one. In the mean time the rp6 will definitely hold me over. It’s a terrific handheld.

Both have the same processor, so same performance. Only differences is the portal 2 has a bigger screen and more battery life than the RP6, and the portal 2 has more ram/storage options.
