It’s basically the perfect response to every criticism I had on the 2+ when I got it, but I’m still happy with my 3+ and would rather put up with black bars on 4:3 content than have PSP games too small to read comfortably.

    Was considering it but the fact that it has an inferior chip with lower performance and is still chunkier than the RP3+ is kind of a turnoff. If I buy a new retroid device I expect at least a performance increase.

    Btw don’t be satisfied with black bars, I’ve been using game specific art bezels from thebezelproject on my RP3+ and widescreen hacks when available. Those 4:3 games look gorgeous on that RP3+ screen.

      I’m a bit picky with widescreen hacks because some games can get really janky out the 4:3 boundary (particularly with GameCube) and I am too easily distracted by it. I am super intrigued by the bezel project, though. I’m going to look into this now. Thanks for mentioning it.
