Anbernic has a ton of these handheld emulator devices on the market now. Some people get annoyed by this, but I would always rather have more options than fewer, and the 40XXV is a home-run in my book.It's rocking the same H700 Allwinner CPU you find in all of their XX devices, which will play every system from Atari all the way up through Dreamcast/PSP, though not the entire library of those systems. You probably won't want to use this for PSP due to the screen's aspect ratio, but for DC and below it's outstanding (I hear some heavy DC games don't run smoothly on this thing, but every DC game I've tried has worked fine). The controls are fantastic -- and this is coming from someone who has about a dozen of these kinds of devices from different companies. The D-pad is sublime -- my favorite of them all -- and the face buttons feel great to use. Even the angling of the triggers are great.A lot of people whine about this thing having a single joystick. Personally I think it's awesome because 1) I'm not a huge fan of FPSes anyway, which is the main use for a second stick, and 2) the systems this plays either use 1 joystick (MAME, N64), or no joystick at all. Even PS1 rarely used the sticks. Yes, the out-of-box (OOB) stick has the famous Anbernic cardinal snapping issue, but installing the latest build of MuOS or Knulli eliminates this problem. I can understand someone saying that the OOB experience should be better for something that costs money, but if you're seriously into this hobby at all you know that custom firmware (CFW) is the name of the game... it is what it is.The screen is a smidge under 4", which is big, bright, and great for anything you want to run on it. 4:3, 3:2, 8:7, even vertical arcade, all run great once you tinker with Retroarch a little. Sound is loud as heck at first and the rocker appears to need individual presses to raise/lower the volume (i.e., press and hold only registers one press, at least on mine), but that's a minor gripe. Not sure if that's the device or MuOS, which is the CFW I use on it.Like most of these devices, some tinkerage is required to get a great experience and a lot of times the "value" judgments for these things are based on how close you can force it to get to that "perfect" (for the individual user) experience you're after. For me, the chunky vertical form factor, big bright screen, single stick, amazing buttons, ability to run some of the best CFWs out there, and nice blue color get it done. Half the reason you get these things is to mess around under the hood to see what you can make it do, and this one is close to perfect for me.

The media could not be loaded. This thing is amazing! I have been on a nostalgic trip for the past week and couldn't bring myself to try and hunt for a game boy color and a handful of game boy games. I came across this in a review on YouTube, took a chance and bought it. This has been the best purchase I have made in a long while. It took some time to figure out how to put my ROM games in this SD card but it was as easy as just dragging the games to their respective folders. There was no need to figure out how to download the emulators onto the SD card. It automatically picked the emulators and I started to play the games. Even though I bought this with the intention of playing game boy color and game boy advance pokémon games. This thing allows me to potentially play PSP games, PlayStation 1 games and so much more. I can't wait for Christmas to roll around and for me to hand this out to my brothers as a Christmas present. If you're looking for a game boy-like device and already have ROM games, this is the device for you.

I really expected it to be a little beefier than it is. It’s extremely light but almost cheap feeling. Mine came with some scratches on the front and honestly, it’s a little chaotic. There are some games where the play button won’t work, but it’s cool. I mean it’s OK. I probably wouldn’t purchase this one. Definitely not for kids because of the lack of parental control. It definitely was a little disappointing. I’ll still use it, but it’s definitely not as cool as I thought it was going to be.

This device is very versatile. It comes with games preloaded and you should be able to figure out how to load your own legally owned ROMs by looking at the folder structure on the SD card. At first I thought the device was defective as it wasn’t charging or the battery was not holding a charge. But it turns out you must use the USB cable that came with the device to charge it.

I had a previously bad experience with the RG35XX series with it suddenly stop loading my games but this one works great. First of all, the user interface is easier to navigate and customize. It has some decent but limited PS1,PSP, and DreamCast games preloaded on it as well and the system feels much better to hold and comfortable. Only drawback is that it's doesn't have any SNES, GBA , or N64 games.

Fun games but doesn't hold charge long

I feel like a kid again, very good quality lot of games, best option.I know there is a lot of options. Do we can choose from But this is the best.

Such a disappointment on Christmas. Worked for an hour, then stopped. My kid handled it okay, but I’m furious bc after some quick online research I learned this is a common problem. I could “flash the drive” which would involve buying additional items, but so wrong to buy a product on Amazon for 90 bucks that ships needing to be fixed right out of the box. YOU flash the damn disc BEFORE selling it.
