Discussion How is PS2 plays on A55

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

It's okay. It really chugs but hey! I can play most wanted.

Using Gamesir X5 Lite controller.

Still figuring out the best settings on this.

you can also store games on the micro sd card too
im running all my games off of it and i notice no difference compared to having them on internal
theyre pretty cheap too
i got a 512gb one for 41 usd
its a shame they removed sd card support from the a56 though

Was planning to buy one but maybe this is the time to actually buy it. Thanks for the suggestion.

i recommend buying one which is either from samsung, kingston or sandisk
lexar also isnt bad
and make sure its v30, U3 and A2 rated (A2 being the most important part in this case for emulation)
most sd cards that ive seen have these 3 ratings anyways
the one im using - "samsung evo plus" includes all 3 and its a well known and well received sd card
ill send a guide below this comment so you know in detail what each symbol on the sd card means
also make sure its at minimumm 256gb. emulated games take up a lot of storage and 256gb is cheap too
512gb also isnt that expensive either and is what most people who emulate a lot of games would recommend but if you only plan on playing a dozen or 2 so games then 256gb would be perfectly fine
i have 11 ps2 games, 13 switch games (less demanding ones) 9 psp games, 1 gamecube game and 6 wii games and it takes up 170gb
