“A bigger 4:3 screen, two grips that fill your hands and a 100GB games card ready to go. The R36H Pro Max is the comfortable way to replay the classics.”

Overview

Wide grips.
A big 4:3 screen.

The R36H Pro Max is a horizontal handheld with the controls on either side of the screen, and wide grips that fill your palms. It’s the layout that makes a long session of SNES, Mega Drive or PlayStation games feel natural.

Most retro games were made for a 4:3 screen, so this one is a perfect match. Arcade, 16-bit and PlayStation games fill its 4.2″ full-fit IPS panel (1024×768) edge to edge, sharp and bright, without black bars down the sides.

ArkOS and your games come already loaded on a 100GB card, so you can switch it on and start playing. The second microSD slot is left empty, ready for a card of your own.

Two Sticks.
A Proper D-pad.

The D-pad sits above the left stick, right where your thumb wants it for 2D platformers and fighters. A second analogue stick under the face buttons takes care of 3D games from N64, PlayStation and PSP.
