They offer a subscription for $5/month that includes access to all the dlc.

Just curious what the selling point was for those of you that have one? Most of my gaming is retro stuff on my rp2+ or rg35xx and I just don’t see the appeal the pocket has over the Retroid/Anbernic alternatives. Is the quality and ability to play actual carts that big of a selling point for the higher price and waiting?

While I do hate everything moving to a subscription model and think we’ll be inevitably screwed in the long run, the cloud gaming feature on gamepass has been perfect for me. My ps4 broke a few years ago and instead of trying to get a ps5, I just subscribed to gamepass. I only have a laptop, and most of my gaming is while my wife or kids are using the TV. It’s so nice being able to just bring my laptop into the TV room and be able to play newer games it couldn’t run natively. If I had a console or gaming pc, I’d be gaming much less.
