It was only this morning when I finished writing a new post about the Retroid Pocket Duo's pricing, and then, just a few hours later, the full list of specifications for both the Pocket Duo and Pocket Duo Lite was revealed, their two new upcoming dual-screen handhelds.
Firstly, I like that they're making two variants of the device, offering choice to those with different budgets, and it also allows Retroid to own more of the dual-screen market when you consider that their parent company also make the AYN Thor.
The Duo Lite is an interesting device for sure, one competitively priced and, as you can see from the specifications below, doesn't feature all the bells and whistles, but might get you up to 3DS and GameCube emulation, but we won't know until we get one in to review. The same goes for the Duo; it'll likely emulate PlayStation 2 games. Below is a list of the full specs, revealed by Retro Gaming Consoles on X.
