[Video] Best Black Friday Discounts For Retro Gaming Handhelds
We’ve made a short video to help you get a better look at some of the great Retro Gaming Handhelds you’ll be able to get the best deals on this Black Friday. Take a closer look below!
RG351MP | A Metal Retro Gaming Handheld
This Black Friday you can score massive savings on the purchase of an ANBERNIC RG351MP.
This retro gaming handheld is powered by the Rockchip RK3266 SoC. Featuring a quad-core processor that runs at 1.5GHz, and 1GB of LPDDR3 RAM.
It has enough power under the hood to handle essentially every retro platform up to the Playstation 1 with minimal, if any issue. You can also play some N64 and PSP games too!
Compared to earlier models, the highlights of the RG351MP are it’s crisp 640x480p display and its metal casing.
The 4:3 aspect ratio of the display allows for pixel-perfect scaling of the vast majority of retro games. While the metal shell gives the unit a subtle weight that underpins an extremely premium feeling.
That’s not all however. The RG351MP can also access a suite of online functions as well. When you connect a Wi-Fi dongle, the RG351MP can scrape databases for metadata (box art, titles, etc.), allowing you to quickly and effortlessly personalize your retro gaming collection.
You can even play ONLINE in (some) retro games through RetroArch’s netplay feature.

GameForce Chi | A Sturdy Retro Gaming Handheld
Prepare to get a real deal on a GameForce Chi in the coming DroiX Black Friday Sale.
The GameForce Chi is a unique retro gaming handheld amongst all the others we currently offer. Primarily for it’s unconventional appearance.
It uses bright colours and a shape evocative of the Game Boy Advance to craft a nostalgic package that combines retro and modern sensibilities into a device that’s just as fun to look at as it is comfortable to hold.
Did we mention it has backlit buttons too? Thanks to being officially supported by the EmuELEC project, it is possible to manually toggle the colours of the button LEDs, so you can further personalize your unit.
For performance in retro games, the GameForce Chi is no slouch either. Featuring the RockChip RK3266 SoC, performance in pretty much all retro platforms up until the Playstation 1 is perfect. With a few games on the N64 and PSP also being perfectly playable.

GPD XP | An Android Retro Gaming Handheld
The GPD XP is the most powerful retro gaming handheld on our list, and you can be sure to get big savings during our Black Friday sale.
At the heart of the device lies the MedaTek Helio G95 SoC. With an octa-core, 2.0GHz processor, and a intergrated GPU with a frequency of 900MHz.
These specs allow it to play all of the best android games, but also means that it is a monster at emulation too, being able to handle platforms that are normally difficult to handle such as the Sega Saturn and the Sega Dreamcast, as well as various other retro platforms. Some Gamecube emulation is even possible too!
A unique aspect of the GPD is also it’s modular controller system. The right-hand-side of the unit can be swapped between three different modules depending on if you want a full gamepad configuration or a gamepad + touch screen configuration.
