I’m irritated with this thing to an enormous level already.
How the **** do I get it to read from the TF2 memory card slot?
You have to use the TFP software. Connect the device to a PC via USB C then open the TFP software on the device and your PC TFP software. Enter the RG-350's IP and you're off. Very easy.
Oh wait, you want it to read the 2nd SD card? Just point your emulators towards the rom paths. It has to be done on a per emulator basis though.
Thanks, I got it working ok last nights though apart from Mame, which the built in emulator has almost zero compatibility with the Rom sets I have. (Even when I switch versions it has installed)
Have to say that so far I’m not very impressed with it. The build quality seems absolutely excellent, but it’s fiddly and unintuitive with poor emulation in places. Not sure if the emulation issues are down to the built in emulators being crap or the system simply not having enough grunt.

Is this the RG350M?
It might be the emulators you have installed, as mine has run everything I've thrown at it on key platforms, even PS1. I have it running Vagrant Story really well, which is one of the more intensive 3D PS1 games.
See if you can get some updated emulators installed. You shouldn't be having these issues. Most stuff should be running very well to perfectly. Where did you get yours from?
The Neo Geo emulator installed is actually very good, I had no issues with Metal Slug or Garou last night. (Which also showed that the systems D-pad was pretty decent) That said it's locked in to English bios, so no blood, so also annoying.
These may well all be early familiarisation issues, but definitely not loving it out of the box, tinkering is always the case with these things though.
Had a wee quiet hour in the shop there so I've managed to squeeze a few games in here and there. I reckon if I can get a good night on it after I close I can get it how I want it. To be fair it took me quite a while to get my Raspberry Pi set up so this will undoubtedly be no different. Speaking of which, can this just be set up with a version of Emulation Station?
What I am really glad about is that I went with the matte black system as I think it looks great, and it does feel quality.
Only need to do the following now and I’ll be happy:
Get either Unibios or Japanese bios set In the Neo emulator. I’ve already dropped the Unibios in to the Rom folder but it doesn’t seem to be detecting it.
Similar situation with the PCE emulator, I have the CD-Rom bios in there which is functioning fine, but I can’t get CD-Rom games to run yet. I may try another emulator.
I still need to try an entirely new version of Mame. The one installed is seemingly known for its garbage compatability so god knows why they used it.
FBA is still a bit spotty emulation wise but I’m getting there. I do like how it switches to Tate mode and turns the whole systems controls to match. I’d rather it was a d-pad for this and not an analogue stick, but at least the stick isn’t too loose.
Few more days tinkering and it should be all good.
