| UnderwaterFunktown said: I would be curious to try them in theory but I guess the problem with these is that they're still not really low end and will cost you as much as a Switch at minimum. I do like dual screen designs though, so glad that's not dead entirely. I hope Nintendo themselves might make a "3DS classic" someday in the distant future. |
Well, AYN Thor is under Switch 1 price - for something that has 2 OLED displays, Hall effect sticks and Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 that's around desktop GTX 1050 (and powerful enough to emulate Switch 1), I'd say that $299 Early Bird price is more than good (though it's left to be seen what will be retail price). And Lite model with Snapdragon 865 is 249$, though that one is some 3.5x slower than Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, although more than capable for 3DS emulation.
But yeah, they are not low end, and honestly they are not supposed to be. Currently, to my knowledge, there is only MagicX Zero 40 in low end (~$70), in 2DS style sort of thing, so no clamshell, and while it runs DS great, it's not capable enough for 3DS - though it's great for vertical display games, like old arcades.
