How to Stream Games from Your RG35xxSP to Your TV

In the ever-evolving landscape of gaming, enthusiasts are continually seeking ways to enhance their gaming experience. One such innovation is streaming games from handheld consoles to a larger TV screen. For owners of the RG35xxSP, a versatile retro gaming handheld, this capability transforms how you enjoy classic games. This guide will walk you through the process of streaming games from your RG35xxSP to your TV, ensuring you get the most out of your gaming sessions.

Understanding the Basics

Before diving into the steps, it’s important to understand what streaming from your RG35xxSP entails. Essentially, you will be projecting the game running on your handheld console onto your TV screen. This process can be accomplished through a combination of hardware and software tools designed to make the connection seamless and the gameplay smooth.

Requirements for Streaming

To stream games from your RG35xxSP to your TV, you’ll need the following:

RG35xxSP Console: Your primary gaming device.

HDMI Cable: To connect your console to the TV.

USB-C to HDMI Adapter: This adapter will help link your RG35xxSP to the HDMI cable.

TV with HDMI Input: A television that supports HDMI input.

Power Source: Ensure your RG35xxSP is fully charged or connected to a power source to prevent interruptions during streaming.

Step-by-Step Guide to Streaming

Step 1: Connect the HDMI Adapter

Begin by connecting the USB-C to HDMI adapter to your RG35xxSP. This adapter is crucial as it facilitates the transmission of audio and video signals from your handheld console to your TV.

Step 2: Link to the TV

Next, take the HDMI cable and connect one end to the HDMI port on the adapter. Connect the other end to an available HDMI input on your TV. Ensure the connection is secure to avoid any disruptions.

Step 3: Power On Your Devices

Turn on both your TV and your RG35xxSP. Switch your TV to the correct HDMI input channel that corresponds to the port you connected the HDMI cable to. You should see your RG35xxSP interface displayed on the TV screen.

Step 4: Adjust Display Settings

On your RG35xxSP, navigate to the settings menu to adjust the display settings if necessary. This step ensures the game displays correctly on your TV, optimizing resolution and screen size for an enhanced viewing experience.

Step 5: Enjoy Your Games

With everything set up, you can now enjoy your games on the big screen. Use the controls on your RG35xxSP as usual, and experience the nostalgia of retro gaming with the comfort of a larger display.

Optimizing Your Streaming Experience

To ensure the best streaming experience, consider the following tips:

Stable Connection: Ensure all connections are secure. Loose cables can result in poor quality or interruptions.

Power Management: Keep your RG35xxSP charged or connected to a power source to avoid power loss during extended gaming sessions.

Sound Settings: Adjust the sound settings on both your RG35xxSP and TV for optimal audio performance. This might involve tweaking volume levels or sound modes on your TV.

Advanced Streaming Options

For those looking to elevate their streaming experience, consider these advanced options:

Wireless Streaming: Some users prefer wireless streaming using a device like a Chromecast. This setup involves connecting your RG35xxSP to the same network as the Chromecast and using a compatible app to stream wirelessly. While this can offer more flexibility, it may introduce latency issues.

Capture Cards: If you’re interested in recording or streaming your gameplay online, a capture card can be a valuable addition. Capture cards connect between your RG35xxSP and TV, allowing you to capture and stream gameplay footage to platforms like Twitch or YouTube.

Fun Fact

Did you know that the concept of handheld gaming consoles dates back to the 1970s? The first commercially successful handheld console, the Microvision, was released in 1979. While technology has drastically evolved since then, the excitement of handheld gaming remains timeless.

What Kinds of Considerations should you make when Planning Audio/Video for Events?

An event's audio and video components are crucial but, if done well, should go unnoticed. Use this audio-visual event planning checklist to guarantee you've thought of everything before the big day arrives.

Use this easy audio-visual checklist to make sure you're communicating with and asking the right questions of your a/v service provider. When you're done reading this, you'll be able to analyze a quote and negotiate the best audio-visual needs for your event because you'll know how typical pieces of equipment work.

Here you can find the most helpful checklist for planning events, including audio-visual equipment.

The audio board, or mixer, for your event.

It's a good idea to install multiple microphones in the same area. With the help of a mixer or sound board, your Audio Visual Equipment Rental New York City team can adjust the volume of each microphone, limit unwanted echo, and achieve perfect stereo separation. These electrical consoles receive audio signals and process, mix, and send them to the speakers. If you'll need mics for many speakers, be sure to let your AV team know in advance.

The following aspect ratio will be used for the event's screens:

An aspect ratio describes the proportion of a display's horizontal to vertical dimensions. The most common aspect ratio for high-definition screens is 16:9, while the most frequent ratio for standard-definition screens is 4:3. This is a common problem for event organizers to face when speakers are expected to prepare their slideshows. These days, widescreen is the norm rather than the exception. As viewed from the front, all submitted slides should have a 16:9 aspect ratio.

Projectors will be available for this event.

To ensure that your presentation is easily understood, it is recommended that Event Management Services in New York City utilize a projector with a high brightness level. Still, it's crucial to think about how much light there is. A brighter-than-usual projector will be required to ensure legibility in a room with many windows. Back screen projection may be the ideal alternative for you if you wish to watch streamed content due to its superior picture quality.

Radio and television equipment for your event's broadcasting and reception

Is there a live broadcast you're planning? Do the keynote speakers at your event need wired or wireless microphones?

Wires running through the middle of the floor can be avoided with the help of a transmitter and a receiver. Together, these gadgets use send audio and visual data via radio waves to far-off speakers and projectors. They achieve their goals through coordinating their efforts.

Audio and video dongles and adapters for events

Do the presenters use their laptops? To what extent do you need a projector for any of these to work? In this instance, it's wise to have a supply of various adapters on hand.

The lack of an HDMI port on most laptops is usually to blame for this. The High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) lets you hook your computer to your TV for a Netflix binge. Still, it might also prevent an audio-visual disaster at your events.

Consult your AV company for advice on what kind of video switcher or mixer will work best for your needs.

A video switcher/mixer is required if multiple computers need to be displayed on the screen at once or if presenters' footage from cameras needs to be incorporated into the display. For this purpose, a video switcher that can switch between different sources without interruption will be necessary.

You can save time and money by hiring a skilled event producer from WebCasting Production Services NYC. The producer is a crucial collaborator because they understand the project's goals, target demographic, available resources, and technical feasibility. If you want to put on a show that your client and the guests will remember, it may be in your best interest to hire an event producer to help you plan and execute a flawless event.

peculiar taste| (m)

Words: 2.8k 

Pairing: Taehyung x Reader

Genre: Smut, Fluff, pwp

Summary: Unknowingly, you find out that your feet pics are roaming around twitter just to find out that your room mate runs the page. 

Warnings: FOOT STUFF, foot job ( idk if thats a thing), foot fetish

a/n:  There’s a lot of foot stuff so if that makes you uncomfortable then don’t read it. Btw if there’s other weird kinks/fetishes that you think a member would like just comment or message me. 

Twitter is a scary place, you never had it until your friend from work told you to download it because there’s funny memes. So when you downloaded it you were not surprised that there were weird foot pictures. See you were not one to shame someone who has weird fetishes but this was different. Oddly enough the picture had the same pedicure as you and the same tattoo on your ankle. Deciding to go on the page you notice there were pictures of your feet, the black heels you owned were there too. 

Is someone spying on you? There is a sudden noise from the kitchen and you jolt in fear, holding the phone close to you as you walk towards the noise. The fear disappears when you see your roommate slash friend Taehyung eating pickles from the jar. “ Hey, wanna go to the park? We can have a little picnic,” Taehyung munches the last part before putting it back in the fridge. “ What’s wrong?” He notices your worried face.

Shaking your head, not sure if you should tell him your worries. Taehyung would probably freak out more than you, he’ll probably call the FBI to install high tech cameras around the apartment. “ Nothing,” you smile. “ I’m down but I’m making the food. Last time you just packed onions and capri suns,” you move him aside to pull out bread to make sandwiches. 

He gives you his signature boxy smile, “ Sorry you don’t have an acquired taste,” he shrugs. 

---

When you guys get back from the park you immediately lay in your bed tired from all the running that Taehyung made you do. It was supposed to be a relaxing picnic, however Taehyung forced you to play tag with the children in the park. When you first met Taehyung you thought he was a quiet and stuck up person because of his emotionless face whenever he was sitting with people. But that all changed when you got to know him better, he was just a funny and weird person but in a good way. Needless to say you don’t ever want him to move out because he is just a fun person to have around.

The ping rings loudly on your phone, you get a message from your mom. You quickly text her back and then go on twitter to the foot fetish page to inspect it more. Maybe DM the person to see where they get these pics. Your eyes widen when you see a new picture that was uploaded a few minutes ago, your feet in your sandals that you just bought last week. Along with the picnic blanket that you use when you go to the park with Taehyung.

Jumping out of your bed you run to Taehyung’s room to demand answers from him, but he is currently playing Uno by himself. “ I’m trying to practice so I can win next time we play with Jungkook and Namjoon,” he places the green card down.

“ It’s Uno. The easiest game in the world, it was literally made for children,” you groan in frustration. Taehyung shrugs then goes back to his game and places the reverse card to the pile. “ That’s why I’m not here,” you shake your head. “ Why are my feet on a fetish page on twitter?”

His sharp eyes widen, you can’t tell if it’s due to shock or confusion. The brows are covered from his wavy black hair, lips parted in an ‘oh’ shape. “ Okay, don’t get mad. I have been posting you foot pics in exchange for money,” he puts his hands up when you throw his pillow at him. 

“ Taehyung! I can’t believe you,” you sigh. You became a renowned foot fetish star without any acknowledgment. What if people start to recognize you on the streets? Now you can never wear sandals.

“ I should’ve told you but I knew you were going to be against it,” Taehyung gets, ignoring the Uno cards and going up to you. His large hands come together holding them in front. “ If you want to take me to the police I understand. But make sure you feed the racoon that’s been secretly hiding in the garden shed,” he gives his puppy eyes. You can’t ever get mad at Taehyung, no matter what. It’s like he has this power that doesn’t make anyone upset.

Sighing, you gently push his hands down to his sides, “ I’m not turning you in,” you say. His remorse features immediately vanish, now becoming gleeful, as he engulfs you in a bear hug. If he’s getting paid you wonder how much he is making off of your feet. “ So how much money have you made so far?” The bed sinks as you sit down on it.

Taehyung's finger scratches his head, trying to remember how much the thirsty people on Twitter paid. “ Hmm, like a couple hundred. I’m saving the money so we can get a new tv.” 

The TV you guys had was found by Taehyung who was riding his bike around the neighborhood. An old man was giving it out and Taehyung called you excitedly asking you to bring your car so you can bring it back home. Upon your arrival you see an old blocky Sony tv that doesn’t even have an HDMI port. Taehyung convinced you that it was vintage and it would match the interior design of the apartment. “ Do people actually like that stuff ?” You ask while looking at your feet. What a weird thing to fetishize you think to yourself. 

Taehyung's hair floofs as he jumps back on the bed grabbing his phone that’s beside you. “ Yes. A lot of people,” he quickly unlocks his phone. “ Look, this man was willing to pay sixty dollars for you to have a foot massage,” you look at the DM. “ There’s also other requests. Like you wearing heels, stockings, and other weird things,” he shrugs putting his phone away.

People pay money for this, and you guys do need some money. It wouldn’t hurt to have a little extra cash for stuff. No one is ever gonna find out that it’s your feet. “ Let’s keep doing it,” you look at Taehyung, whose eyes widen at your words. 

“ Really?” Taehyung asked in a serious tone. Wanting to make sure that you actually want to do it not because of his stupid mistake.

“ Yeah, it would be nice to have extra cash,” you nod your head.

----

“ This feels really weird,” you flinch at the stickiness of the honey pouring on your feet. Taehyung makes a hand motion for you to keep pouring it as he films it on his phone. Your face is not in view so no one can see the weird faces you're making as the stickiness goes in between your toes. Just another weird request from a person. This guy is paying sixty dollars for this, so who cares that you are pouring honey on your feet.

Taehyung nods and gives the okay sign, ending the video. “ I feel bad that the bees are dying and we are wasting their precious honey on your feet,” he pouts before leaving to retrieve a wet towel. He tosses it to you so you can wipe the honey off before walking on the floor. 

The wet towel doesn’t help much so you decide to wash it. “ Yeah, we should visit the bee sanctuary to give our condolences,” you joke as you run to the bathtub to wash your feet with soap. 

“ That would be nice,” Taehyung smiles watching you wash your feet. He hears you laugh, “ Oh you were kidding,” he laughs along with you. The phone pings and he grabs it from his back pocket, looking at the DM’s. ***800 dollar request *** Taehyung reads loudly, eyes widening at the words. He reads the request to himself, heart beating fast because this is actually a sexual request. Also because this is the most someone is willing to spend on a video. For the past month it's only been under the hundreds that people spent on your feet.

Your voice startles him, “ What are they asking for you?” Turning off the faucet you give your undivided attention to him. 

Taehyung gulps then scratches the back of his neck, “ Uh- he wants you to use your feet to fondle someone’s dick,” he coughs at the end. There’s a silence that washes over you guys. “ Yeah,  I can just decline-”

“ Would I be fondling you?,” you ask. Taehyung tucks his phone back in his pocket then sits next to you. 

Taehyung puts his hand on your shoulder, his eyes are looking at you seriously. “ We don't have to do this.” 

 It’s 800 hundred dollars that you guys would be missing out on.“ I want to do it. Our faces won’t be showing, right?”  You really don’t mind just as long as Taehyung is comfortable doing it with you.

Taehyung exhales, nodding his head, “ Yeah no faces.” His heart beats faster as he looks at your feet.

***

“ Let me wash my feet one more time,” you go get up to use the bathroom one more time. Taehyung tugs you back down the bed. 

“ You already did it twice before you came to my room,” he lets out a chuckle. “ Don’t be nervous,” he sits on his chair. He grabs your foot gently placing it on his thigh. Large hands rubbing your ankle to calm you down. “ I’ll give you a foot massage and we’ll go from there,” he says softly. There’s a different mood between the two of you. It’s not like the usual playful mood that you guys have. It's heavier, if that makes sense.

Nodding your head, his big hands rub your feet. Rolling out any tension on the center of your foot, you sigh not used to this kind of attention in that area. His hands are like magic making all the stress on your foot disappear. At one point you close your eyes in relaxation feeling your body get lighter. Immediately your eyes open when you feel lips kissing your ankle, his soft lips leave a few more kisses as your eyes meet his dark eyes. Looking down you see a hard on “ Taehyung,” you whisper. He puts your foot back on his thigh, “ Should I start recording?,” you ask. Your hands shake, bringing his phone into your hands. 

Taehyung lets out a quiet hum, indicating for you to do so. You hold the phone tightly, pressing the record button. Last night you did some research looking at feet groping and you feel kind of confident. Hopefully, you don’t embarrass yourself or make Taehyung immediately walk out of the room. Your right foot teasingly goes up and down his thigh, looking carefully at Taehyung’s reaction. He lets out a groan when you get close to his bulge but goes to the other thigh doing the same action as before.

“ Baby please,” Taehyung's voice is hoarse. The pet name surprises you in a good way but you quickly remind yourself that he is only calling you that so your name won’t be exposed. His hand goes to your leg, running his fingers against your calf. Listening to his request you trail your foot to his bulge, lightly brushing the tip of your toes. He lets out a breathy exhale, looking down at your foot taunting him. 

You never thought you’d be into this, maybe it is the position. There’s some kind of power you hold as you get to dictate whether you should make him feel pleasure by the pressure of your foot. The way Taehyung’s breath quickens when you apply more pressure, his eyes giving you a sultry look. Your foot applies more pressure, toes spreading feeling the outline of his bulge. Doing slow circles, trying to feel more of him. His hand tightens on your leg, “ Fuck, right there,” Taehyung closes his eyes for a quick second. The hardness of his cock turns you on, you feel the thickness of it beneath your foot and you know he probably has a big cock. 

“ Does my foot feel good, baby?” You condescendly ask. His eyes look into yours surprise of your tone and question. His jaw clenching, looking hot and bothered, a new look that you want to store in your memory. “ Look at you getting turned on just by my foot,” you tsk in disappointment. Applying more pressure you arch your eyebrow still expecting an answer from him.

Taehyung hisses in pleasure, “ Yeah, your foot feels good,” he tosses his head when you rub your foot harder up and down his clothed cock. “ It feels to fucking good,” he whispers more to himself.

“ Take your cock for me baby,” you command him. Taehyung gives you a face of relief immediately taking his cock out of his pants and briefs. And you were right about his cock being thick and big. Now you just want to feel it in your hands and your mouth, actually everywhere. The precum is leaking, begging to be touched. The heel of your foot meets his hard cock, and he flinches but then immediately going back to your touch. “ Spit on it,” you look down, indicating Taehyung to spit on his cock.

He groans loud at your assertion, not used to this. Taehyung never sees this side of you, having a higher authority. You're usually compliant and listen to whatever he wants to do. He follows your words, spitting on his cock, as he watches your two feet come together cupping the thickness of his cock. Jerking him up and down.“ Shit shit,” he curses at himself for wanting to come right now.

“ It’s not even my pussy and you're already a moaning mess,” you chuckle to yourself. His eyes are downcast to the slow movement of your feet. The small breathy moans are getting louder, and you love the sound of it. 

If your feet are this good he can’t imagine what your pussy would feel like. He wants to desperately ask if he can fuck it later but he puts his thoughts away trying not to moan your name loudly. The movements get faster and he thinks this is the fastest time he has ever come. “ I’m going to come baby. Can I come please?”  He looks up at your face, and notices a dark gaze, and he wants to kiss the evil smirk off your face.

You wouldn’t be surprised if you creamed your pants right now at the sight of his begging and climaxing. “ Mmm, so soon?” You teasingly ask. Taehyung shamelessly nods, his hands clenching at nothing. “ Come all over my feet dirty boy,” your eyes watch carefully at his pretty bottom lip getting bitten by his teeth.

Before you know it Taehyung is tossing his head back, “ Fuck,” he lets out a loud drawl. His head Adam apple is bobbing and his pretty collar bones are getting more exposed. White spurts all over your feet and you keep fondling him until he holds your ankle in place. He finally looks down at the mess he made, surprised at how much he come.

You stop recording, placing the phone down the bed. There’s a towel next to you, you pull your feet towards you wiping the come off your feet. “ Can you kiss me?” Your head snaps to Taehyung’s question. His eyes don’t have the same lustful gaze but some hint of fondness. 

Nodding your head, you are about to kiss him until you realize that you ate sushi about an hour ago. Fearing that he probably can taste it from your mouth you pull back shaking your head. “ Let me brush my teeth real quick,” you try to walk to the bathroom. Until Taehyung laughs brightly pulling you back and pecking your lips softly.

The kiss makes you swoon and want to kiss him more but he pulls away too soon. “ Why did you want to kiss me?” You ask him not wanting to get your hopes high. But your heart is already beating hard because it’s Taehyung who kissed you.

“ I like you,” Taehyung shrugs nonchalantly. “ Why did you agree to kiss me?” He asks you while holding your hand.

“ I like you,” you do the same gesture as him. Taehyung smiles and leans towards your lips and you clothes your eyes expecting a kiss until you feel him push you back. Opening your eyes you see him pull his shirt over his head, and you're surprised to his slightly defined chest and v line. 

“ Even when I annoy you and cause nothing but trouble for you?” Taehyung looks down at you biting his bottom lip, a nervous tick he has.

You smile bringing his large hand down, pecking it lightly, “ That’s the best part though,” then pulling him down to kiss him.

How to Connect Any Phone or Tablet to Your TV Using USB

Connecting a phone to your TV isn’t as simple as you would possibly think. Whether you would like to enjoy Netflix, share photos, or use it for home working, hooking up a cable between your phone and television are often tricky.

But it’s not impossible—it’s all a matter of choosing the proper cable.

Here’s what you would like to understand the way to connect an Android or iOS phone or tablet to a TV employing a USB cable.

Why Use USB to attach Phones, Tablets, and TVs?

With the convenience and prevalence of casting to mirror a phone screen wirelessly, you would possibly be curious why you ought to use a USB to TV connection for your phone.

If you hook phone to your TV with a hardwired connection, you enjoy a low-latency signal. as an example, if you propose to mirror your phone to television for gaming, you’ll need a USB connection instead of a wireless configuration. This vastly reduces lag.

Plus, for situations where you lack Wi-Fi or have a weak wireless signal, you’ll need a wired connection instead.

To connect your phone or tablet to a TV, you'll use one among the subsequent methods: Android: USB-C cable with DisplayPort USB cable with MHL (Mobile High-Definition Link) USB cable with SlimPort iPhone/iPad

Lightning cable (iPhone and iPad)

Which option you employ depends on your specific device and OS. Although all methods are similar, the method differs for connecting an iPhone versus an Android device.

Similarly, your connection method varies counting on your needs. Simply viewing photos on a compatible television requires your charging cable and mobile device. except for screen mirroring, you’ll need a USB adapter. How to Connect Android Phones and Tablets to TVs With USB

You have two options for connecting Android phones and tablets to your TV: USB-C cable with DisplayPort support USB cable with MHL USB cable with Slimport

We’ll check out each below.

1. Connect Your Phone to an HDMI TV Using USB Type-C

The most recent Android smartphones feature a USB Type-C port. Also referred to as USB-C, this is often a cylinder-shaped input that replaces micro-USB and is employed for charging and data transfer.

Including support for the DisplayPort standard, USB-C is often wont to mirror your phone or tablet’s display to a TV.

Simply connect the USB-C cable to Android, then connect this to an appropriate docking station or USB-C to HDMI adaptor.

2. Connecting Phone to TV Using USB With MHL

MHL is one among the foremost common solutions for connecting a phone to an HDMI TV with a micro-USB cable. This technology allows MHL-compatible devices like smartphones and tablets to attach to televisions and projectors.

You can browse an inventory of MHL-enabled devices on the official MHL website.

To use Mobile High-Definition Link, you'll need MHL-enabled phone USB to HDMI MHL adapter or cable HDMI cable Power cable

Although this is often the overall setup, the precise cable you’ll need varies. Google MHL cable [your device name] to seek out an inventory of compatible cables.

For a USB to TV connection using MHL, first, attach your phone via an MHL adapter. The adapter would require power either from a USB port on the cable or an external source.

Although MHL initially required an influence connection, MHL 2.0 makes this non-essential. Still, since MHL does draw power from the mobile device, it’s knowing to connect an influence cable.

Next, connect your phone to your television with the MHL cable. then, you ought to see your phone screen on your TV; it’s plug-and-play.

Overall, Mobile High-Definition Link is one of the simplest solutions for connecting an Android phone to a TV employing a USB cable.

3. Connecting Phone to TV Using USB SlimPort

If you've got an older phone, you would possibly connect your phone to a TV with a SlimPort cable. While almost like MHL, SlimPort offers different outputs but uses the micro-USB connection.

Whereas MHL is restricted to HDMI, SlimPort outputs to HDMI, DVI, DisplayPort, and VGA. This makes it better suited to a spread of displays, including older monitors and TVs with no digital inputs.

Unlike MHL, SlimPort doesn't draw power from mobile devices.

You’ll need the after attaching a phone to your TV employing a SlimPort adapter: SlimPort-compatible phone (SlimPort’s list of supported devices) A micro-USB SlimPort cable or adapter Appropriate video cable for your display (HDMI, DVI, DisplayPort, or VGA)

Begin by plugging the SlimPort adapter into your phone. Then, attach the SlimPort adapter to your display using the right cable. you ought to then be ready to view your phone’s screen on a TV. Like MHL, it’s plug-and-play.

iPhone or iPad to TV With USB?

As iPhones and iPads don’t have USB, you can’t use this as a connection method. But you'll connect them to a TV employing a cable.

If you own an iPhone 5 or newer, it'll have a Lightning connector. to attach your iPhone to a TV you’ll need the Lightning digital AV adapter for HDMI outputs, or the Lightning to VGA adapter if you've got a VGA display. Buy the cable that matches your TV.

Older iOS devices with the old 30-pin port instead use the 30-pin VGA adapter.

You can connect an iPad to your TV through an equivalent means. Again, you’ll presumably need a Lightning cable for this. Only the iPad 3 and earlier use a 30-pin cable. All other iPads, including every iPad Mini and iPad Pro, use a Lightning cable.

Once you’ve plugged in your adapter, simply attach the video output to your display. Then, your phone screen will mirror to the TV. Apple’s official Lightning adapters contain a further Lightning port for charging while viewing content on a second screen. USB to TV: Connecting as a memory device

While the foremost common use case for connecting a phone to a TV using USB is for screen mirroring, there’s a choice. rather than screen mirroring, you'll also simply view files like pictures on a TV.

However, this may require a compatible monitor, TV, or projector. The latest displays should accept USB storage.

Of the varied USB to TV connection options, this is often the simplest. Since it only requires a phone, USB cable, and television with a USB input, it’s simple to line up. Which specific cable you would like depends on your phone.

On an iPhone or iPad, use a Lightning cable (or 30-pin for older devices). Alternatively, Android users need a micro-USB or USB-C cable. The USB cable that came together with your phone or tablet should work fine. USB to TV: Connecting to look at Photos

Modern Android devices don’t support USB Mass Storage, so your TV won’t view your device as a real drive.

This assumes that your TV or monitor features a USB input capable of displaying files from a connected memory device.

Simply connect your cable to your phone, then to the TV. With the quality USB end of the cable connected to your display, change the input on your TV to USB.

On Android, you’ll likely get to change your USB settings to Transfer files or Transfer photos (PTP). to try to do this, bear down your notifications from the highest of the screen when connected. within the menu, tap the USB is charging this device notification to vary it.

Note that this doesn’t work with all TVs. In some cases, the USB ports are purely for firmware updates. Use Samsung DeX to attach Your Samsung Phone to a TV

Among the foremost popular Android devices available, you’ll find Samsung flagship handsets. These feature connectivity with televisions and monitors. For pure screen mirroring, you’ll need a USB-C to HDMI cable.

To connect a Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+/Note 8 and later to your TV, merely attach a USB-C to HDMI adapter. Plug the USB-C male into the USB-C charging port on your Samsung Galaxy device. Then run the HDMI cable into your TV.

However, Samsung Galaxy S8, S9, and Note 8/9 devices also include DeX. Bridging the gap between mobile and desktop, DeX offers a desktop experience run from your handset. you'll run all an equivalent Android apps, however, access your phone’s gallery, and get everything on the large screen

Since this is often proprietary technology, the tactic for connecting a DeX-enabled Samsung phone to a TV differs from standard hookups.

For the whole Galaxy S8 and Note 8 line up, also as S9 and S9+, you’ll need a dock to use DeX.

However, Note 9 doesn’t require a dock. Instead, the Note 9 enters DeX mode with merely a USB-C to HDMI cable. That’s much more useful than a fanatical dock.

If employing a dock, you'll also need an influence cable for powering the dock and charging your device. to seek out out more, see our guide to using DeX to show your phone or tablet into a computer. Connect Phones, Tablets, and TVs With USB: Success!

While a USB to TV connection varies by device, connection type, and display inputs, it’s thankfully simple to line up. However, don’t forget that wireless casting is typically more convenient.

Regardless of whether you’re using an Android, iPhone, or a Samsung device running DeX, there’s how to attach your phone or tablet to a TV for viewing on a bigger screen.

How to Buy a TV

It's stupid how difficult it is to buy a TV these days. It should be easy enough to walk into a Best Buy, look at the wall of TVs, and pick the one you think looks the best. Unfortunately, most people can't really see a difference between brands. To make things worse, most TV manufacturers use a special in-store display mode that basically turns the brightness way up to make the screen stand out among the others. Then a lot of people are disappointed when they take a TV home and it doesn't look like the display unit at the store.

Things can be even worse when you shop online. Most online retailers simply spew a bunch of numbers at you to make it seem like a particular brand has super advanced technology. The reality is that most people don't understand what 1080p resolution or 60Hz refresh rate means. Depending on your needs, higher numbers aren't always better or worth the markup.

The purpose of this guide is to help you get past the marketing jargon to help you not get scammed. Here are the 6 steps you should follow to pick out your next TV:

1. Decide what screen size best fits your needs. Note that TVs are measured diagonally, from either the top left corner to the bottom right or the top right to the bottom left. That means a 55 inch TV has a screen that's 47.8 inches wide and 26.9 inches tall. Keep that in mind when you're measuring or planning out how big of a TV will fit in a particular space. Obviously bigger means more expensive, so keep in mind that a living room centerpiece is going to cost much more than a small screen in your bedroom.

2. Choose the resolution of the screen. These days, you'll generally see either 4K Ultra HD (aka 1440p) TVs or 1080p TVs with the occasional lower-end 720p sprinkled in. To explain what those numbers mean, every screen is made up of a grid of thousands or millions of little dots called pixels. Each pixel emits different colored light such that all of those pixels lit up together produce the image on your screen. The resolution of a screen tells you how many pixels it has. The more pixels you have, the better the screen can reproduce an image of real life. If you think back to an old video game, those were produced with tens or hundreds of pixels, so the image looks blurry or blocky. Whereas games nowadays are produced with millions of pixels, so they look almost identical to real life.

Resolution is a little tricky for the average person, because it can be difficult to see a difference between say 1080p and 4K Ultra HD. For most people who are used to a 1080p TV at home, 4K appears to be only a very slight improvement. However, if you're used to looking at a 4K screen, going back down to 1080p (or even lower like 720p) generally appears to be a much bigger difference.

These days, I would definitely recommend 4K. We're at the point where there's plenty of 4K video content (like on Netflix) and game consoles (like the Xbox One X and Playstation 4 Pro) can even play games at the higher resolution. A 1080p TV at this point will become outdated very quickly in the next few years.

3. Decide if you want to pay more for HDR. If you do, look for a TV that specifies either HDR 10 or Dolby Vision (many TVs support both). Many manufacturers will try to fool you by saying a TV has HDR without specifying one or both of those technical standards.

HDR or high-dynamic-range refers to a wider range of brightness the pixels on your screen can produce. In real life, light and dark are very apparent, so there's a stark contrast between looking up into the sun versus looking at a shadow. Most screens have a hard time reproducing that contrast. You might notice a lot of times when you're looking at a sunset on your TV for example, the image looks kind of flat and not totally real. A TV with HDR will be better at producing that shift in brightness, so that the image looks more realistic.

Unless you have a limited budget, I would recommend buying a TV with HDR. If you watch a 4K HDR movie on Netflix for example, you might be amazed at how much more real the image looks than it might on a more muted screen. Buying an HDR TV now is also probably a good investment for the future, as more and more video content will support it.

4. Decide on the refresh rate you're looking for. Higher refresh rates can get expensive very quickly, but they can also make a huge difference depending on what you use your TV for. The standard numbers you'll see are 60Hz, 120Hz, and 240Hz.

A TV is sort of like a super advanced flip book. It displays motion by flipping through tons of still images. The faster you flip through, the more fluid the motion looks. The slower you flip through, the more unnatural or blurry it looks. 60Hz (pronounced like the word "hurts") means it shows you 60 images per second. The difference in refresh rate becomes apparent when there's a lot of motion on screen. So for example, a football game will look much better on a 120Hz screen because it refreshes fast enough to keep up with the players on screen, whereas a 60Hz screen might look a little blurry as players dart across the field.

If you're buying a new TV to watch sports or to play video games, I recommend spending up for a TV with 120Hz. If you're mostly planning to watch TV or movies, it might be hard to justify spending up for anything over 60Hz. Unless you're simply looking for the top of the line TV, 240Hz is usually not worth the price. While some people can see a difference, the human eye can hardly distinguish between 120 and 240Hz.

5. Figure out how many and what kind of inputs and outputs you need. Basically this means you need to ask yourself what all you're going to be plugging into the TV. If you have 3 game consoles and a Blu-ray player, you probably shouldn't get a TV with only two HDMI ports, or you'll be sorry to find out you'll need to buy additional hardware like an HDMI switcher. Additionally, if you want to connect a sound system, make sure the TV can support the type of cable your system uses (usually 3.5mm, analog optical audio, or HDMI).

There are different types of HDMI ports that you might want to be aware of, but I won't get into those because it's not relevant for most average people.

6. Decide if you care about "smart" features. This essentially boils down to whether you want apps built into the TV or if you already have a box like a Roku/Apple TV/Xbox/etc. that you're going to plug into the TV anyway. Most TVs these days have smart features by default, so it's actually kind of hard to get a TV without smart features these days. The important thing to know is that you shouldn't pay more for these features if you're already planning to plug in another box to play Netflix, Hulu, or whatever else.

7. (Bonus Step if you want to get a little nerdier) Choose the display technology. The display technology is basically how the pixels are lit up. The standard options nowadays are LED LCD and OLED. If the manufacturer doesn't specify OLED, then it likely falls under the LED LCD category. Samsung and other brands tend to be extremely confusing about this type of thing. They'll use terms like QLED or SUHD, but at the end of the day, they're really just LED LCD displays.

OLEDs are generally much more expensive, but the benefit is that they tend to have better contrast between light and dark areas of the screen. Because LED LCD panels generally use backlighting, it's hard to make one part of the screen bright and a different part of the screen dark. With OLED however, the screen can light up pixels individually, which makes for a more realistic looking image.

To wrap up, my philosophy for TV shopping is actually a little different than shopping for other products. When shopping for a TV, I would recommend setting your budget after deciding what features you must have. For most things, it makes sense to set your limit and then pick the best option within that restriction. However, a TV is a long-term purchase and a product that typically sits prominently in your living room. In my mind, it makes sense to decide what you want and then save up and only buy when you have enough money to get the product you want. Most people buy a TV every 5-10 years. However, most people buy a smartphone for example every 1-3 years. It makes more sense to splurge on the less frequent purchase rather than the purchase you know you're going to replace in a relatively short period of time.

I hope this clears up some of the marketing jargon for you. Let me know down below if this cleared things up for you!

People shouldn’t buy retro consoles like NES and SNES unless they understand they were made 30 somethings years ago for a completely different type of television than they make now.

Like, they weren’t designed for HDMI TVs? Some new TVs don’t even have the hookups needed to use them? And if the pins on either the games *or* console are dirty, they *won’t* work.

Meaning if you buy a console and try to pop in a 15 year old game you *just* dug out of your attic, and it doesn’t work, don’t go screaming to the employee you bought it from BEFORE checking that you cleaned YOUR game. Or before you do a google search and realized the reason your picture is so blurry has to due to with the resolution the game was designed to play at compared to the resolution your tv defaults to!

If you don’t want to deal with these issues then please don’t buy retro consoles. You can easily buy the NES or SNES Classics from major retailers, or even secondhand offline, which are designed to be compatible with HDMI TVs and have a lot of popular games simply preloaded on them, no cartridge games needed. They also weren’t made decades ago, meaning on a whole you won’t have to worry as much about condition of the systems!

If you do want them—because you want games that aren’t on the Classics or just like the retro stuff—it’s YOUR job to do a little research before you buy them.

And if your a parent, DO NOT buy systems for your kids just thinking “Oh, I don’t need to know how to set these up because my 10 year old is great with an X-Box 360, this should be no problem for them to set up.”

Maybe your kids is a total whiz and can get everything set up on their own, in which case awesome. Your kid is very savvy. But if they can’t—because most 10 year olds aren’t going to consider how TVs decades ago were completely different from what they have now—it’s YOUR responsibility to set it up for them. Or—if you really don’t want to deal with it—be the adult and say “No, we’re not buying this because we don’t know how to work it.”

Because here’s the thing: retail workers are not tech support. It will never be retail workers responsibility to get the thing up and running for you. We are paid to sell you the item.

At most, we will try to tell you what we know about the item.

All that stuff I typed above about cleaning pins in systems and needing the right hookups? I generally try to inform people about that before they buy systems, but there are plenty of days I’m too busy or just too exhausted to run down the laundry list of “Things to Know Before You Buy a Retro System” to a grown ass adult.

What more, it’s not actually my job to make sure you know all that. It’s just a professional courtesy I’m doing you in an attempt to make both our lives a little easier, before you get home and realize you don’t have an AV port on your 2019 television, much less an RF port.

Must-Have Features in a Smart TV

Televisions have been a rather important piece of electronics for several decades now. Starting from news of current affairs to entertainment, a TV has quite frankly become a necessity. Since black and white CRT monitors, television sets have come a long way, both in terms of technological innovation and design. Smart TVs are the most recent rendition of television sets, and with the launch of the Android smart TV, they have been a rather craze in the market.

Important Features to Check in a Smart TV

Smart TVs have revolutionized the industry, coming with features that a conventional TV user can only dream of. However, if you are not too well-informed about this industry, you could easily be wasting your investment in a model that does not satisfy your expectations. Fortunately, there are a few important features that you can consider to make sure that you pick the best 4k Ultra HD TV out of all the options.

Connection Ports Available:

The types and number of connection ports included in any television set play a very integral role in how good the TV is. It allows your TV to connect to other devices and seamlessly work together. However, if you do not know what to look for, you might miss out on these. The most important port is HDMI, short for High-Definition Multimedia Interface. This is quite a versatile port and is mostly used to connect devices like laptops, gaming consoles and speakers.

That said, HDMI ports come in three main types, namely 2.0a, 2.0b and 4.0. The majority of the televisions come with HDMI 2.0 and 2.1 ports, especially models produced in the past decade. Given the multipurpose use of this port, it is best if you take it into consideration before finalizing your choice. In addition to HDMI ports, you should also look for USB 3.0 ports.

Screen Resolution:

The next most important thing to check is the screen resolution of the TV you are buying. The resolution mainly deals with the picture quality of the TV. This is even more important to consider if you are buying a TV with a bigger screen. How clear and sharp the image is and what kind of color reproduction it comes with are all dependent on the screen resolution and type.

Although there are not many TV models that come with a resolution lower than 1980x1080 or Full HD, make sure your choice suffices the minimum requirement. You can also indulge in a 4K or 8K model if picture quality is absolutely important for you. However, with better resolution, the price also increases significantly.

App Store:

The main reason for buying a smart TV is the accessibility it offers. It comes with a number of applications and internet access, which only makes usage simpler. However, for these applications to work on your TV, it needs to work with a particular app store, which you can download the apps from.

For Android TV, Google offers the Play Store, from which you can get almost every kind of app, even ones you can find on your phone. Starting from OTT streaming platforms like Prime Video and Netflix to music streaming platforms like Spotify and Play Music and even some games. So before you make your purchase, make sure that the model you buy comes with a verified app store.

Cost Of The Product:

Much like with any purchase, you should always consider the price of the product before finalizing your choice. When it comes to TV sets, there is a vast difference in Iffalcon TV price, depending on the features you choose. The best way to go about this is by setting a particular budget and adding features according to it. Start with the most important ones, and eventually add the ones that are rather fancy than necessary.

The above-mentioned information is enough to help you decide what is absolutely important. Depending on your needs, you can then ask for more or less. Rest assured, with this article, you now surely have a better understanding of what you need to look for while buying a TV set. Just make sure that you buy your TV from a reputable company, and the product comes with a warranty.

HDMI Cable

What is HDMI :

HDMI is used for sending video and audio signals between modern AV devices.

You will find this connector on many home technology products made in the last few years — including TVs, display monitors, soundbars, AV receivers, game consoles, projectors and computers.

If a device needs to send or receive video and audio, then chances are it will have an HDMI port.

HDMI supports all modern video formats, including high-definition signals and Ultra HD 4K and 8K.

For audio, it will send anything from simple 2-channel PCM stereo audio to 8-channel uncompressed digital audio formats such as Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio and Dolby Atmos.

Over the last few years, there have been several different versions of the HDMI specification, and the most widespread versions are HDMI v.1.4, HDMI 2.0 and the newer HDMI 2.1.

The new HDMI 2.1 specification supports video resolutions up to 4K/120p and 8K/60p. Plus, it is required for new gaming features like VRR, ALLM and QMS.

You should be aware that the older versions have limitations with their supported features.

Therefore, the HDMI inputs and outputs on older devices may not have the same functionality as newer ones.

What Does the HDMI Connector Look Like ?

The HDMI connector on the back of your TV or Blu-ray player looks like this:

The connection is designed so that HDMI cables will only fit one way around.

HDMI ports are usually either inputs or outputs.

The simple difference is that if the device receives a signal — like a computer monitor — it will have an HDMI input.

And, if it sends a signal — like a Blu-ray player — it will have an HDMI output.

However, some HDMI ports can both send and receive signals simultaneously.

An example of this is an HDMI ARC connector on the back of a TV — this can receive a video signal from an AV receiver and send audio back to the receiver from the TV — all with one cable.

You don’t really need to know all this, but if you understand if a device is sending or receiving a signal, it can make it easier to wire your system together.

The examples in the picture above are HDMI inputs on the back of an AV receiver.

It is usual for a receiver to have several HDMI inputs, as this is where you connect all the HDMI outputs from your devices.

Even though the input is labeled with a device name — it doesn’t matter what device you connect to it — they are all the same.

The names just provide a guide and make it easier to remember where everything is connected.

When selecting that input, you will also see this name on the receiver’s front display; however, you can change this name in many receivers and call it whatever you like.

What Does the HDMI Cable Look Like ?

The HDMI cable that is used to connect two devices looks like this:

You just need one cable between devices to transfer the sound and the picture.

Although some brands come with gold-plated HDMI connectors, the HDMI connectors are often silver.

The color or material of the connector won’t make any noticeable difference in performance.

The cable will usually have a flexible plastic material protecting the core wiring.

However, some brands use braided nylon cables, which can prove easier to install in tight spaces — or may just look better to you.

What Are the Different Versions of HDMI ?

HDMI 1.0

The release version of the HDMI standard — an audio and video interface that allowed the transfer of standard and high-definition video

Up to 8 channels of uncompressed digital audio

Data transfer up to 4.9 Gb per second

Playback of standard Blu-ray disc video and audio at full resolution

HDMI 1.1

Added support for DVD Audio

HDMI 1.2 & 1.2a

Support for the One Bit Audio format such as SACD (up to 8 channels)

Fully specified support for Consumer Electronics Control (CEC)

HDMI 1.3

Increased bandwidth to 10.2 Gb per second.

Read More

Improved color — support for Deep Colour and x.v.Colour. These provide increased color depths and the ability to reproduce any color the eye can see

Lip sync — allows devices to automatically synchronize the picture and sound

CEC extensions for controlling consumer electronic devices

Support for streaming high-definition Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio to an AV receiver for decoding

Defined two standards for HDMI cables — category 1 and 2 (see below)

HDMI 1.4

Support for increased resolutions — up to 3840 x 2160p at 25/30Hz and 4096 x 2160p at 24Hz

Support for the audio return channel (ARC). Allows the TV to send audio from an HDMI connection to an AV receiver or soundbar. Therefore, allowing an easy way to send this audio to a home theater sound system

Allowed for an Ethernet connection over HDMI — therefore allowing an internet or home network connection through the cables

Support for 3D TV signals

HDMI 2.0

Supported bandwidth increased to 18Gb per second

Added support for 4K Ultra HD resolutions at 60 frames per second

Support for the BT.2020 standard for UHD TVs

Support for up to 32 audio channels

Support for up to 1536 kHz audio resolution

Support for dual video streams to the same screen

Added support for 21:9 aspect ratios

The minimum standard required for HDCP 2.2 (copy protection for 4K video). However, if a device is HDMI 2.0, it doesn’t necessarily mean it supports HDCP 2.2. Unless there is HDCP 2.2 through the whole playback chain, then 4K video won’t play

No need for a new cable, just use a category 1 or 2 cable

HAMI 2.0a

Added support for High Dynamic Range (HDR) video

HDMI 2.0b

Added support for Hybrid Log-Gamma (HLG) video — a form of HDR

HDMI 2.1

Added support for Dynamic HDR

Support for 4K/120 and 8K/120 video resolutions

Support for Display Stream Compression (DSC). This allows for Type A (uncompressed) and Type B (compressed) video

Specified a new cable type — 48G. This supports a bandwidth of 46 Gb/s and uses HDMI type A (standard), C (mini) and D (micro) connectors

Specified a new Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC). Allows the transfer of uncompressed and object-based audio from the TV to a home theater system via an existing HDMI connection. eARC also supports a new Auto Lip Sync feature.

Support for enhanced gaming and media features such as:

1. Variable Refresh Rate (VRR): allows the refresh rate of the screen to change to match how quickly the player can produce the content. This reduces lag and stutter during gaming. All devices in the chain need to support this.

2. Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM): when compatible devices are connected, they will automatically switch to their gaming modes. This means that they enable their best low latency settings for gaming. All devices in the chain need to support this.

Read More

3. Quick Media Switching (QMS): removes any delay before content is displayed. For example, you may get a temporary black screen when you switch from one video source to another — especially if you are switching video resolutions or frame rates. QMS stops this black screen from happening. All devices in the chain need to support this.

4. Quick Frame Transport (QFT): allows the source device to send video frames to the TV as soon as they are produced — rather than wait until the display device is ready for it. This reduces latency when gaming. All devices in the chain need to support this.

Retro gaming consoles and classic system revivals are gaining in popularity. I've tried a bunch of retro gaming systems over past few years, from revived Commodore 64s to a Raspberry Pi Zero-powered Gameboy. They're all good, but have specific flaws---so how does the Evercade measure up?

If you're looking for a device that will play classic games from well-known publishers, and is small enough to fit in your pocket, consider the Evercade. Boasting a striking design, sharp display, responsive controls, and HDMI out, it's available with a choice of over 120 games at the time of writing.

What Is an Evercade?

Manufactured by UK company Blaze Entertainment, the Evercade is a handheld retro games console built to a high standard.

At first glance it could easily be an old handheld LCD gaming device from the 1980s, a period from which the console clearly takes many of its design cues. But there is far more to this device than looking the part.

Evercade isn't just a console---it's a platform, too. A range of games are available, packaged in groups by publisher name, around 10 to a cartridge. This differs depending on the generation of game, however, as older games require less storage space.

For example, the Atari cartridges feature double this amount, as the games were designed for systems almost 40 years ago. Conversely, the Interplay Collection 1 has just six 16-bit era games.

Game progress can be saved to the Evercade, too, giving you the advantage of being able to complete classic arcade titles in your own time, rather than sweating it out all in one go.

In the Evercade Box

Two Evercade options are available: The Starter Pack, and the Premium Pack. These are identical in terms of hardware but vary in the number of games included. While the Premium Pack features three cartridges (each holding multiple titles, more on that later), the Starter Pack has one.

In the box, you'll find the Evercade itself, a USB charge cable, and a cartridge box. Charging the Evercade first is recommended, but you'll need to provide your own wall charger with a suitable USB port.

Also included is a Quick Start Guide which will walk you through the basic setup and cover most troubleshooting issues.

The Evercade Console in Detail

Picking up the Evercade for the first time, you'll notice how comfortable it feels to hold. Its curved rear corners fit into the palms of your hands; the notch along the bottom makes a comfortable home for your pinkies.

Featuring a classic white and red livery, the console sports a 4.3-inch LCD. To the left of this is a responsive Sega-style D-pad, menu button, and speaker; on the right, ABXY buttons, select and start functions, and another speaker.

The top of the Evercade has left and right shoulder/trigger buttons, a power switch, and mini-HDMI output. Are the shoulder buttons oversensitive? Probably, but with a modicum of care it's easy enough to avoid touching them.

At the bottom, there's the volume control, audio out for headphones, and the micro-USB charging port.

Around the back of the console is the cartridge port. There is no eject feature, so you need to be careful inserting and removing carts to avoid damage.

Evercade Console Device Specification

Weighing 214g (cartridges weight around 15g) and measuring 182x82x21mm the Evercade features a 4.3-inch LCD display at 480x272 pixel resolution.

A 1.2GHz Cortex-A7 CPU is the system's workhorse, while the OS is Linux, which you won't see. The only user interface you'll see is the game carousel and menu system (more on that below). Evercade is designed to play games released on the Atari 2600, 7800, and Lynx, the NES, SNES, Gameboy Advance (GBA), and Sega Genesis/Mega Drive.

Powering the console is a 2,000-mAh rechargeable battery, which apparently cannot be replaced. This should not be completely discharged or left on charge for more than 12 hours. HDMI video output is 720p, and beyond this and the micro-USB port, there are no connectivity options.

Insert Cartridge, Play Games

Unsurprisingly, most Evercade titles are classics from Atari, Dataeast, Namco, etc. Many big-name arcade and console games from the 80s are available. Too many are available to list here, but if you opt for the Evercade Premium Pack you can expect:

Atari Volume 1: Centipede, Adventure, Alien Brigade, Asteroids, Missile Command, Crystal Castles, Food Fight, Desert Falcon, Motor Psycho, Canyon Bomber, Gravitar, Double Dunk, Ninja Golf, Steeplechase, Night Driver, Tempest, Video Pinpall, Aquaventure, Yars' Return, and Swordquest.

Interplay Volume 1: Clay Fighter, Earthworm Jim, Battle Chess, Boogerman, Incantation, and Titan.

Dataeast Volume 1: Bad Dudes, Burger Time, Midnight Resistance, Side Pocket, Karate Champ, Joe & Mac 2 Lost in the Tropics, Fighter's History, Two Crude Dudes, Magical Drop II, and Burnin' Rubber.

Each of these cartridges has a Volume 2 set for launch in late 2020 or early 2021. These are joined by other bundles, games released initially on the Atari Lynx, Jaleco systems, plus games from the Oliver Twins, Piko, Technos, Mega Cat, and even a collection of Worms titles.

The Evercade Starter pack, meanwhile, features just a single cartridge. Our review pack shipped with the Namco Museum Collection 1, with Galaxian, Pac-Man, Xevious, Mappy, Dig Dug, Star Luster, Battle Cars, Metal Marines, Libble Rabble, Quad Challenge, and Mappy Kids.

However, some newer titles are also available. For example, the Xeno Crisis/Tanglewood Dual Game Cartridge features retro-styled games released in 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Earlier, I mentioned cartridge cases. Evercade is so keen to deliver the retro experience that all games are released on physical media, in clamshell packaging, complete with instruction manuals, and artwork. If you've embraced the vinyl revival, you'll understand this---if not, buy an Evercade and spend a few minutes of tactile interaction with the game packaging. Digital downloads are not welcome here.

Retro Gaming on the Evercade

Playing a game is a simple case of inserting a cartridge (with the console on or off) then using the D-pad to scroll through the options. When you find a game you like select A to launch it, then use the -Select and Start buttons to start playing. Instructions for each game are found in the cartridge's accompanying booklet.

Game progress can be stored on the Evercade. The Menu button launches a set of options in-game, allowing you to Save State or Load State. There is also a Setting option to change the screen ratio, as well as options to Quit or Return to Game.

Evercade settings are also available from the game selection carousel, again by pressing Menu. Here, ratio, brightness, and audio settings can be adjusted. Audio volume can be adjusted using the buttons on the bottom of the Evercade; to disable sound completely, use the Menu screen.

Playing Games With Evercade

As with any gaming system, you don't quite know what you've got until the system boots up, the game loads, and you start to play.

What becomes quickly apparent is that these games are not running in a standard multi-purpose emulator. They're running as close to perfect as it is possible to get. All those hours spent playing games in an emulator and ignoring the obvious flaws will be forgotten after five minutes on an Evercade.

With a mini HDMI cable or adapter, the Evercade connects to a standard HDTV. The results are good, the 720p is clean and crisp, although the port isn't perhaps sturdy enough to handle a knock heavy enough to disconnect from the TV.

Evercade: Old Games, Modern Device

It looks good, feels good, and the curated games collections are good. Evercade evokes a bygone era of gaming in a way that simply shouldn't work in an age of digital downloads and streaming.

Not everything is perfect; some games are home system conversions rather than arcade originals; the Evercade is prone to collecting finger grease; playing on a TV requires a long cable with no support for an additional controller. There's a lack of multiplayer, too, and charging takes a while with micro-USB rather than the more modern USB-C.

But overall, the titles illustrate the depth of support for the Evercade from games publishers. But most importantly, the games play perfectly on the console. Forget glitching, stuttering performance, or inadequate, ill-thought-out controls. Sound is perfect, the environment is stable; everything is optimized for the perfect retro gaming experience---and it shows.
