>waah Retroarch broke when I used it! Doesn't work on my machine!!
>no I won't explain what led up to it crashing
If you're one of those people who refuse to use RA out of some boycott against the dev, then you do you. But literal NPCs like you who can't explain how you broke the software before reading the manual are fucking retarded. Some anons here will literally spoonfeed the answers to make your experience more enjoyable. Use your words or fuck off.

I'm thinking about selling my games and keeping the consoles, but I don't want to go through the trouble of putting each individual thing up on ebay though. Has anyone here brought stuff to a retro game store? Do they offer reasonable prices, or at least some decent trades?

>do you use a flash cart such as Everdrive?
Yeah. All of my systems use Flashcarts, ODEs, read CD-Rs or run games off an internal hard drive. None of my original games have been touched in years, they're all in boxes in my basement.
>there's something in my autism that makes me only want to buy (I guess collect) the original cartridges.
there is literally zero difference in how the games play. Sometimes it's cool to see the label or read the manual I guess, but so many games out there have had their manuals and boxart scanned.
>To me it feels like you're playing a vinyl on a turntable but playing the audio out of a bluetooth speaker.
it's like ripping an album on CD and playing it on a CD-R. There's no difference.
>If you own one, how are you finding it?
Love it. Never going back.

whatever you have at your disposal. I use Retroarch on my desktop and phone for most things but also standalones for 6th gen PSP and DS.
