Pulled out of buying this on release due to poor reviews.

Worth a punt at this price IMO.

i dont have access to a soldering pen ( annoying has i have a 128gb usb 3.0) would a 2.0 micro sd adapter usb work for the autobleem?

[Deleted User]

Haven't tried it yet, but any guides I've seen don't require soldering at all

Mr E

It does if you want to use a USB 3.0 drive. I think the current is being limited on the two ports so the drive can get very hot if you don't solder.
You can also use conductive ink.

There are links in the description of the video.

If you want autobleem and 2 controller ports free follow this tutorial to add OTG support and it lets you use more power hungry USB 3.0 sticks. No opening the machine or anything. There is a little bit of flashing the system so you have to be careful not to plug it out but it does make backups and I'm yet to see anyone manage to permanently brick the system. It's pretty easy not to screw it up anyways. You do need a low powered usb for the first part I'd recommend any sd card/micro sd to usb adapter as they draw very little power and you just need a small (micro) sd card as you won't be putting any games on it just the files it needs to flash.

As for OTG cables if you go angled I believe you want a left angled one like this one or go for future proofing if they add wifi support

I though there is way to use the rear port, which can handle more power. (larger USB 3 Sticks).

Downloaded autobleem and a few Roms, plan to give this a crack later. Just wondering about this post above. What's the 8bitDo adapter? Does it allow 2 player on the installed Roms? This probably isn't the place to ask, is there a more appropriate forum for it (PS probably?)

8bitDo adapter allows you to use any wireless controller you want(ps3,ps4,xone etc).Around 15£ on amazon and works with PC too ðŸ‘Œ

One issue is I believe they're one to one. So you need 2 if using two controllers..

Do the analogue stick work then?

Mr E

No analog stick on these pads.

Apparently so BUT you need to use retroarch to run the games which is just a little bit more setup and work to do... Look into retroboot or use bleemsync running games through retroarch. Or you can install it alongside autobleem.It can be a bit fugly to navigate though...
Dunno how many games make use of or require the analog sticks. Ape escape for definite and think there are rereleases of resident evil games that use it..

A great little device. The kids love playing Crash Bandicoot am I'm looking forward to playing Sonic the Hedgehog on it. I used to love playing that game. Cheers OP.

I picked up the Sega classic collection today from Argos and it made me think why Sony can’t release a collection like this, disc based rather then system based

File size might be one issue.

There is only 16gb of flash memory in a PlayStation classic. A single layer blu-ray is 25gb and a dual layer is 50gb so even if they applied a 4K upgrade for the ps pro I can’t see it being bigger then 50gb

If you can find it in stock of course

[Deleted User]

Crikey I hadn't checked the stock for the rest of the country....didn't realise it had been so popular with the Dubs in particular!

I'm having so much fun with this bit of kit and I'd see this as a must for anyone into retro gaming. The number of consoles you can emulate on it is amazing.
I have got some PSP games that are playable and yet I cannot for the life of me get the Simpsons to play on Mame arcade.

[Deleted User]

Yeah live on the Smyths site now for €29.99.

Thanks, works out cheaper from the uk then.

Meant to add, why do amazon uk not ship certain items here while other regions do? Do they have an agreement with the irish market so irish sellers can make more sales?
