Picking up a retroid for emulation (hexbear.net)

Anyone used one of these before? I've heard really good things. Mostly looking to emulate PS1, dreamcast, n64, and PS2 and from what I've read the retroid 4 does a solid job with all of them.

My main question is: how easy is it to get up and going with emulation on a dedicated handheld? I've done some really light emulation in the past, but only on pc and that was years ago.

I got the Anbernic RG40XX H.

It's my first emulator. It can play PS1 and others but I haven't experimented with the N64, etc. yet. It works really well for what it is and especially for the price. It came with a cheapo SD card with a bunch of roms, for which I'm really grateful, but I'm planning on getting a couple of others to switch OS and upload a collection I found. Anyway, so far it's fun and I'd recommend checking them out for their higher tier stuff.
