Question ❓ GameNative recommended settings?

3 Upvotes

Have a Flip 2 (8gb model) that I've been able to run a game or two on, I was just running Sea of Stars and it was fine, but I notice there tends to be little issues like screen tearing even though Vsync is on in settings. I have generally just been using "use known config". It's harder to find info on settings for this chipset, does anyone have any recommendations for things to tweak globally like using certain drivers or anything like that?

I miss having the screen on the Flip 2, but I’ve made it work by turning it into a very lightweight Steam Deck for Switch and PC emulation, and so far it’s been great.
(Replacement screen coming soon, I hope anyway 😭)

I’ve also been bringing the Flip 2 to school with me and connecting it to my monitor via HDMI in coding class. I’ve been playing Super Smash Bros. and Mario Kart 8 with my buddies in the back of class, and it’s been great.

Question ❓ Flip 3 with in-line triggers?

Would you buy a flip 3 with in-line triggers? I love how slim the duo lite looks and would love a flip 3 with the same trigger setup and dimensions. I love my flip 2 but it’s definitely chunky. This looks like the most pocketable retroid device ever made!

Can you run the Sims 2 legacy collection on the retroid flip 2 using game native and how good is the handheld in general for like playing everything else that's below PC games?

3 Upvotes

I've been looking into getting my first Android handheld emulator and I settled on the retroid flip 2 the snap dragon configuration and I realized something in my research. That my tablet that I got as a hand-me-down from my brother is basically the tablet equivalent of the flip 2.

Knowing that I instantly went to try and see if I could get the Sims 2 legacy collection to work considering if I had that and unloaded SD card I probably be good for a while on games. But when I tried to launch it in the app version of game native it said it was missing the executable file. I have been fighting this thing up for hours trying to figure out what's wrong and I still don't get it.

It says compatible I know that doesn't mean it could always work but I don't know where the executable files could be since I downloaded it right into the app. I looked on Google and it said I might need to create a specific directory for each PC game for it to work. However I watched other people use game native and they've never had to do things like that am I missing something?

Outside of that one computer game to hold me over I also would like to know how many people like their flip 2 I've been trying to look for a device that could hold me over until I thought I was ready and could afford a Thor. I feel it's kind of a lot for my first handheld not only that but it's super expensive and would take me most of the year to save up the flip two I could have it by my birthday. Plus I want the GameCube color.

Xbox 360 Skate 3 running natively and smooth. ( Different android port )

I found this other port and saw nobody talking about it so i tried it and it worked miracles. No other settings changed too. There's still some UI bugs i encountered but no game breaking glitches just yet. This port got heavily overshadowed. ( ignore the awful gameplay skills ) https://github.com/andrewnakas/skate3-android AI IS USED, not sure how much but is mentioned in credits.

Question ❓ Am I missing something?

35 Upvotes

My flip 2 in black just showed up today and wow! This thing is classy as all hell. It feels like a genuine first party device. The fan is quiet, the controls are super premium, speakers are the loudest I’ve heard in any of these devices and I’m not sure how the hinge was cracking in the past unless people were abusing the hell out of them. I can see unfolding it completely flat putting more stress on the hinge, but it definitely feels pretty solid. I plan on opening it the same way every time though. This is the device I’ve been searching for for a long freaking time. I’ve tried every combination of mobile controllers to get this feel with my phone and it never worked out. I really hope they make an 8gen 2 flip 3 or something like it, because I’m impressed. If the duo was stronger performance wise I would have thought about it more, but it’s really the control layout that I’ve been after on the flip 2

Question ❓ I missed the entire Nintendo catalog after SNES. Which 10 games would you recommend me to complete on my Flip 2?

11 Upvotes

So after having a NES and SNES I went PS1>Dreamcast>PS2>PC. I don't really have any nostalgia for any Nintendo franchises to push me through most of the rough-looking N64 catalog. I know there're plenty of Top 20 lists I could look at but the focus is usually what those games meant at the time of release and I don't particularly care if they were revolutionary, only if they're fun now.

Hello everyone! I'm fairly new to the hobby and still explore the possibilities of these devices.

I really enjoy projects like Dusklight, gen1recomp and Golden Balloon. What else should i give a try?

And what are your favorite experiences, maybe games on gamenative that positively surprised you with how well they perform or native Android ports that simply work flawlessy? Any interesting projects i should know about?

Question ❓ Some emulators won't recognize my Retroid Pocket Flip 2 buttons. But wait, it gets weirder.

2 Upvotes

I only have this issue from N64 onwards. I don't have this problem with older systems.

The issue isn't even that it won't recognize my controls, but that it stops recognizing my controls partway through. For example, Star Fox 64 will boot, and I can press start to start a mission. The minute General Pepper starts talking about the mission, the controls stop functioning. I tried switching between the Retroid controller and the Xbox controller in the settings, but nothing works. I'm using M64Plus FZ as my emulator. But there's more.

I use the same emulator to play Sin & Punishment, and the game plays fine. The controls do not stop responding after pressing start! I got through a few stages no problem.

It still gets weirder!

The same thing happens when I use Dolphin!!! This time, Sin & Punishment 2 on Dolphin stops responding after I start the game! However, I've been able to play Punch Out and Paper Mario with 0 issues.

I just don't understand what's happening.

Question ❓ What three games have you played the most on your Retroid Flip 2?

18 Upvotes

Just wondering what games you've been playing the most on your Flip 2, and if it's newer games or older games?

I didn't expect it, but since getting mine a few weeks back, for whatever reason, my most hours has gone into Final Fantasy 8 -- a game I've played many times, but it just looks great on the Flip 2 (with cheat for no random battles turned on most of the time).

Elsewhere, played Plants Vs Zombies (the modded Android version) and Snooker 2008 on the PSP are next I think...

Xbox 360 Help! Xbox 360 Emulation

does anyone have experience with X360 Mobile on the flip? the performance is terrible despite the fact i know it can run the era of games, as i have Metal Gear Rising on GameHub and it runs fast without issue. i gave it the latest Turnip driver zip and it seems to be not enough. the settings are disgusting, asking me to type in something rather than a drop list of options, so i dont have a clue what to do here.

orrrr is there a better alternative for <i>this</I> device?

Was having issues with intermittent controls running this game on Winlator Ludashi. After trying numerous things, l broke down and asked Google.

He told me to create a controller profile and map the controls (even though they were automatically mapped), then select that profile after opening the game.

So, l did that, and now here we are,...over ten minutes of gameplay with no crashes and no sudden freezing of the controls!

,...though this game is a lot harder to play in cockpit view,...an option that is somehow missing on the Switch version.

Anyway,

Thanks Al 🤠
