RG35XX RETRO HANDHELD
Feb 1, 2025 10:18 PM
I bought this little handheld console called an RG35XX, which is styled like a gameboy (with more buttons). It can emulate a bunch of consoles, basically everything notable thru PS1. I'm going to compile my notes about it on here.
For starters, it comes with a card that has a lot of ROMs, but not some of the required ones. Also, it's missing some BIOS files and it's on a terribly cheap card. I had a lot of problems booting the system until I used a new card. At the same time, I switched to Garlic, but I think the relevant change was the card itself.
Copying the file over used dd
on my debian install, something like dd if=garlic.img of=/dev/sda
maybe with flags. GPT authored the command.
You have to find the ROMs yourself. Everyone's afraid to link to them. But they go in a ROMs folder, and for the NES, it's labeled FC (Famicom)
I noticed the zip file had a bunch of images, but Garlic isn't using them.
