Steps to Add Games on RG35XX

Now that you've gathered everything you need, here are the steps to add games to your Anbernic RG35XX console:

1. Preparing the microSD card :

   • Insert the microSD card into your computer using a USB memory card reader if necessary.
   • PLEASE NOTE: the reader must be compatible with the TF (Transflash) format. A Micro SD only compatible reader may not read the memory card correctly.
   • If the card is blank, create a folder to organize your retro games. You can name this folder "Games", for example. You will then have to create several folders for each emulator inside.
     
     

2. Downloading games :

   • Find reliable sites to download ROM files. If you don't know where to find them, you can take a look at itch.io , a marketplace community for independent games, some of which are offered in digital format for emulators, in free or paid form.
     
     

3. Transfer of games :

   • Once you have downloaded ROM files, unzip them if necessary.
   • Copy the ROM files to the folder that corresponds to the intended emulator on the microSD card.
     
     

4. Safe ejection :

   • Make sure to safely eject the micro SD card from your computer before removing it.
     
     

5. Insert the micro SD card into the console :

   • Turn off your Anbernic RG35XX.
   • Insert the micro SD card containing the games into the slot provided for this purpose.
     
     

6. Starting and configuring emulators :

   • Turn on the console and navigate to the main menu.
   • Select the emulator corresponding to the game you want to play.
   • Browse the list of games associated with the emulator to find the game you want to launch and select it.
     
     

7. Play!

   • Enjoy your freshly installed games on your RG35XX.
     
     

Remember that the use of ROM files must be done in compliance with current legislation in order to enjoy a responsible retro experience that respects the authors. You can support free or paid independent neo-retro game creators on the itch.io website.

Now all you have to do is teleport back in time and have fun like back in the day!
