SHOWCASE Rp5 in the house!!
Tuesday I got my Rp5 (12gb+128) version in, I mainly been using it for “DroidDeck” and play store games. I love it so far my most “premium” android device I’ve had. I feel like I’m not using it right or how I should be using it since I’m mainly using it for just lite steam titles and Android App Store games, does anyone else do this with their device?

Love my rp5. The gamecube and ps2 is so sick. Honestly I know its not impressive performance in the sense of emulating the system but GBA has been a trip as well.

Nice enjoy! I just got game native on my rp5 but not sure which games to try. What have you had success with on droiddeck?

On DroidDeck I’ve got stardew valley, sleeping dogs, Balatro, and persona 4 golden to all run great, haven’t gotten around to trying fallout new Vegas but I heard it runs good!

I couldn’t get any games to load on droid deck. It was the first day though, might need to try again.

u/Taethecoldest1 1d ago
Yessir try again they’ve dropped a lot of updates fixing it and the rp5 couldn’t play with droid deck when they first released it but they dropped a update later on fixing that I’ve gotten Stardew valley, Sleeping dogs, Balatro, fallout new Vegas, and persona 4 golden to work well on it

Sweet, do you have a tutorial you followed? I’ll uninstall then try again.

As someone mentioned above, Retro Game Corps' video is the best to follow.

New updates everyday. I couldn't get crow country to load, then got it to load but scene transitions took forever. Now it runs like it does on my deck

I've got an RP5 and when I try to setup Droid Deck I keep getting stuck trying to allow child processes.
Game Native was pretty easy to setup. I've played Ori, River City Girls and Chrono Trigger so far.

Try the Retro Game Corps video on Droid Deck setup. I had the same kind of problem and he explained it really well. I'm currently still downloading some games to test but was able to get it up and going so far following that.

droiddeck funciona no 865? quando tentei não abria jogo nenhum
alias, meu RP5 também é de 12gb e veio com uma tela de 120hz, mas tive que ir atrás para conseguir ativar, não aparece nativamente

u/ButcherPeteIsReady 1d ago
Yes but compatibility seems to be all over the place. Some games boot while others don't. The games that don't boot plays fine on Odin 3. This is with a RP5 12GB btw.

Como ativa os 120hz?

Did you need to make any settings changes to get games to run with DroidDeck? I've tried it, even after the update for RP5, but still can't get anything to run, or run well, that otherwise runs perfectly on GN.

I love my RP5 but the more I use it, the more I realize I don't really like playing retro games on it. I prefer my smaller handhelds like my Trimui Brick and Miyoo Mini Flip for that. So I also mainly use the RP5 for more demanding/wide screen consoles (GC, PS2, PSP), and now Steam games🔥
