What the Anbernic RG406H runs

10 systems with published testing, ordered from least to most demanding. Systems missing from this list have no testing found, which is not the same as a confirmed failure.

Impressive on most of the library, with known hard failures.

  • Mario Kart: Double Dash and Super Mario Sunshine run perfectly at 2x upscale.
  • F-Zero GX is practically unplayable even at native resolution.

PlayStation 2

Hit and miss

Some titles run untouched at native resolution; most popular ones mean a trip to the settings menu.

  • A few titles need 1x resolution to hold full speed.
  • Some do not work well no matter what is changed.
