Anbernic Teases New RG DDS Dual-Screen Handheld for Retro Gaming
Anbernic has released a video preview of its upcoming RG DDS handheld, a device designed to emulate dual-screen gaming consoles. The device features an upgraded processor and screen aspect ratios specifically optimized for 3DS-era titles.
Anbernic has officially showcased its latest handheld project, the RG DDS (Dream Dual Screen), following a brief announcement last week. The company’s new promotional video highlights the device’s ability to run emulated titles from the Nintendo 3DS, Xbox, and PlayStation 3 libraries. This release marks a continuation of Anbernic’s recent push into the dual-screen market, following the earlier launch of the RG DS and RG DS Plus models.
While the previous RG DS series was primarily marketed as a modern alternative to the original Nintendo DS, the RG DDS is positioned as a more powerful successor. The primary technical improvement in this new model is a faster processor, which is intended to handle the more demanding emulation requirements of 3DS games. Additionally, the device incorporates display aspect ratios tailored to accommodate the unique dual-screen layout of Nintendo’s 3DS hardware.
Anbernic enters a niche but growing market for dual-screen emulation devices. Competitors such as Ayaneo have already established a presence in this space with their own dual-screen offerings over the past few years. While Anbernic is clearly targeting the retro-gaming enthusiast community, the company has not yet provided a full list of specifications or a definitive release date for the RG DDS.
