I’m thinking about getting a Retroid Pocket Classic but was wondering whether or not I might be able to use the same SD Card I use for my Retroid Pocket 4 Pro. I was hoping I could resume my saves between devices.
Is this is possible?
EDIT: had originally written RP4P. Updated to Retroid Pocket 4 Pro
I have an RP2+ so I don’t know if it’s exactly the same, but with most Android devices, if you’ve configured the SD as an extension of internal memory, then no, it won’t work (and might screw some things up on the old device if you remove it). But if you’re just using it as external storage, I don’t think there should be any problem.
A quick poke at the retroid pocket’s product page says it’s underlying OS is Android 14. Android defaults external storage formatting to fat32 or exFAT, both of which Raspbian or most Linux distros can support (with an extra package in exFAT’s case). You should have no problems with each device reading the cards, but I’m not sure what emulators each uses.
Oh no, that’s my bad. I meant to write that as RP4P Retroid Pocket 4 Pro, not a Raspberry Pi 4, but interesting to know all the same!
I’m not half the nerd as some of these guys, but I don’t see why not as long as there’s plenty of space.
