I’m really happy with this thing. I was considering getting the RG SP but it was a solid $20-30 more expensive, since it’s the newest model. Meanwhile, good offers were being made for the 34XX-SP which is basically the same device.
Initial impressions:
- The yellow model looks great IRL. It’s less saturated than in the picture.
- 4:3 games are really not that small on the screen, the bezels aren’t an issue like everyone says they are.
- Controls are great, they’re clicky but not annoying or loud. The bumpers are way better than the ones in the RG35XX-H. I’m surprised how much I love the thin D-pad. The only thing I actively dislike is how loud the function button is.


Trying to reach into the middle for the stick doesn’t sound super ergonomic.
It’s actually easier than trying to have it on the bottom corner because the sp form factor is narrow. Your thumbs naturally rest in the middle. I bought a 34xxSP as a gift so I spent some time with it setting it up.
