Good launch offer for the SIGAM M25 retro console, a device clearly reminiscent of a PS5 controller in its design and colors.
This console has the Rockchip RK3566 processor that we can currently find in many retro consoles. This SoC allows us to run without problems the included PSP, N64, PS1 and Dreamcast emulators as well as many more 8 and 16 bits consoles. We have a micro SD slot to boot your Linux system with a distribution Batocera type, also has internal storage of 128 GB much faster.
The SIGAM M25 is likely to be compatible with Rocknix OS and by extension with Portmaster for PC gaming. If you want something in another format of controls and HD resolution is better a POWKIDDY X55 that we saw in a review recently.
