Wait, it couldn’t play PSP games before‽ what good is it‽

It's a remote for your ps5 which doesn't really work well outside of your local network.

It was a cut down Android OS that only served as a wireless monitor and controller for your PS5.

Oh wow. What a wonderful pile of waste of a device.

[–] roadkill@kbin.social 8 points 7 months ago

Yeah, it's a novelty. Especially considering it only appears to have 8GB NAND total with 2GB taken up by the OS. For the price, although with a smaller screen (and is much more travel friendly), might as well buy an Ayn Neo or Retroid Pocket 4. Both would have substantially more CPU power, storage and ram.

It's a streaming device. Think a WiiU gamepad except it can also operate over WiFi connections.

Can you play with two separate but active screens, or just one screen at a time?

[–] 520@kbin.social 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

You could, in theory, play with two screens. However the controls are hardwired onto the device and IIRC it doesn't have Bluetooth .

Having two screens for stuff would be better handled on the renderer's side with OBS and screen overlays. Unless you are talking about two seperate streams at the same time? (eg: one from your PC at home and another from your Xbox)
