/vr/ - Retro Games

no

>>7311832
why not?

I'd like to buy a Mega SG. I only heard of that product recently with the release of Paprium. Instead, they're working on a PC Engine device. Why? Those games are even rarer than the Genesis.

>>7311849
Might go for Mega SG when my Genesis eats shit. Checked the website and had no idea it accepted Cd and Master System. Hope it accepts 32X just for completions sake That all in one Gameboy looks nice too but I’ve got a GBA and price is a bit much for me

>>7311859
>Hope it accepts 32X just for completions sake
Kinda.
32X only works with an analog signal so you'll need to shill out for the proprietary DAC box to use it with the Mega Sg.

>>7311818
There are tons of in-depth reviews out there that you can read. People on this board have the biggest hate boner for Analogue products but it would be dishonest to withhold that they're the best clone systems there ever were. You are getting a high quality and reliable product for your money. If a purchase makes sense is a question only you can answer yourself. I think it does primarily if you already call a sizeable collection of real Genesis cartridges your own. Or maybe if you already have a Genesis and flash cart but want to simply or future proff your TV setup / compatibility. On the other hand it makes next to zero sense if you own neither a real console, games or flash cart. Buying a Mega SG to play ROMs off the built-in SD card reader is stupid imo. You might as well use an emulator then and spend that money elsewhere.

>>7311845
Overpriced rich hips.0.yturd bait, if you wanna play your consoles on modern tvs get a RetroThinkX and if you just wanna emulate use retroarch and if your PC is beeffier and over 1440p enjoy the shaders.

Can you even buy the controllers from 8-bitdo anymore? They're never available through Amazon where I live. Also, these things should ship with a controller in the box.

>>7311923
>Also, these things should ship with a controller in the box.
They're expecting people to already own original controllers

>>7311952
Anon, those are over 30 years old at this point.

>>7311818
You can't buy any of them, so it doesn't matter.

>>7311974
Were you trying to formulate some sort of utterance there? Anyways, look you're saying they expect you to have an old controller lying around and I'm saying I'd expect a new one to come included with my 190 USD clone system.

>>7312063
It's a device for people who already have a collection of Genesis carts, and those kinds of people either already have controllers, or are capable of getting a replacement/sourcing an alternative, of which there are dozens of options.
The price didn't need jacking up further because of an unnecessary inclusion for unresourceful babbies.

>>7312253
>I'd expect a new one to come included with my 190 USD clone system
>The price didn't need jacking up further
Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit, is it?

>>7312329
It cost $190 without a controller.
If they included a controller, they would also increase the price.

>>7311923
No, they’ve discontinued all their 2.4ghz controllers ever since Christopher Taber (Analogue CEO) left 8BitDo

>>7312063
>>7312329
Holy hell you're an idiot

>>7311818
Absolutely not. Just buy HDMI converters for your old consoles or just emulate on your PC.

man ngl I REALLY regret not buying the pocket.
I was there. I could've bought one but didnt.
Now I'd like one just so I could play around a bit, see if I like it and then flip it.
Never gonna buy one unless they do another run LMAO.

>>7311818
All depends on your setup and what you have. They're the best clones but overpriced. If you already have some old consoles, just get a retrotink and run svideo into it for any HD display.

>>7312741
Well I regret ever buying these FPGA consoles. It's a huge waste of money.

yes

>>7312741
They'll do another run eventually, but I imagine it'll sell out even faster.

I hope the Pocket is good, and they keep producing more. Seems like a better niche to fill than high end clone consoles.

>>7311818
Not when you can build a MiSTer for less than what one Analogue goes for.
Any Analogue shills here?

>>7311849
The PC Engine one might be the only one worth buying. And still I'd rather play all those card and CD games on a MiSTer.

>>7313006
>Buy a MiSTer

>Shills

>>7313034
MiSTer isn't a product you can buy, you dumb fuck.

>>7313006
>MiSTers are 300+
>NT Super ws 190
>Mega SG was 190
>only the Nt Mini Noir was >300
hm.

>>7311818
It was for me since no one is capable of doing RGB/sound mods in my area. However, it looks like all their systems are having production issues and are not available at their suggested retail price.

>>7311964
>>7312063
>>7312253
You're a fucking idiot lmao

>paying for emulation
Congratulations on falling for Anal Log’s PR.

>>7313250
*Was
You can a DE-10 for a little over a hundred and the 32MB Ram Card for about $25. Done.

>>7313245
>MiSTer isn't a product you can buy...
Gee MiSTer, you really are full of shit.

>>7313512
Well it's out of stock so you can't buy it, also that's just a USB hub.

>>7313548
Still says "MiSTer" on it. Also at the MiSTer website, you can buy one fully assembled for a grand total of $500.

>>7313512
>>7313707
It's an open project not a product you literal retard.

>>7313735
You can keep lying, but I see this product on sale.

>>7313828
You can keep proving your self to be a legit retard all you want.

>>7313835
You're the only legit retard here. I proved you wrong twice.

>>7313837
Do you work for Anal Ogue?

>>7313512
>>7313828
Go back to work you lying Shill. Quit wasting everyone's time.

>>7313849
>>7313851
I'm no "shill" and I'm anti-ANALogue. Either way I already proved your retarded ass wrong twice with the screen shots I posted.

>>7313867
Looks like you can't read either. Most retards can't.

>>7312427
Dang, that's sad.

>>7313486
That doesn't include a shell, connects, etc.

>>7313927
Don't get sad get Glad fresh protect bags.

>>7313885
You're the only retard here because you got caught lying and now you're trying desperately to cover up the fact that MiSTer does indeed sell products.

>>7314009
Is this a bit? I can't believe somebody can be this fucking stupid and arrogant about it. Actually thinking that MiSTer is some fucking company trying to nostalgia bait retards when it's a community formed project around a intel fpga development board. It's clear that no amount of arguing will get you to admit that you're full of shit and schizo-posting.

>>7315941
False. I already proved that the MiSTer is selling products. People can either buy a fully assembled MiSTer or buy them in parts. Even those parts have the MiSTer logo on them. That's branding. You know who does branding? Companies. You know what companies do? Sell products. No amount of lies and excuses can change the fact that the MiSTer is a product, ya lying sack of shit.

>>7313938
Oh... the thing is you don't need any of that.
I paid more than I had to for my case. It's a precision milled Black Anodized aluminum case for a VGA switcher some boutique manufacture was making. I think I paid about $35 for that. Then I drilled out the little modifications I needed to add the LED lighted buttons I got from that gay electronics supplier in NYC. I spent about $20 on all the connectors I needed to make custom cables and that includes my Arduino usb controller adapters. I spent another $20 on the 4A 5V OverKill power supply that's made for running server room equipment.
None of that the average person needed. I just wanted a custom enclosure for mine. Also I spent half of what they want for one of those USB boards. It took some time, but I cracked the code on what made their USB board "special" and searched and searched until I could find an external Chinese equivalent for half the price. Works great.

>>7316551
MiSTer is not a company, retard.

>>7316551
I can't get over how this clown thinks private individual investing time and money into small batch manufacturing is some how a corporate conspiracy. LMAO Seriously. You're fucking dumb as rocks.

>>7316561
Getting so triggered over me speaking the truth. LOL The MiSTer is a company that sells an FPGA device to morons who should have stick with emulating via PC.

>>7316551
Why don't you pull your head out of your ass and make something for the MiSTer community and make some money for your self? Oh wait... you can't because you're retarded.

>>7316570
Imagine getting filtered over some hardware that was designed for students to learn on.

>>7316575
The headline says "Products", selling MiSTer crap. You have to be retarded to continue making a fool of yourself by pushing this nonsense that "MiSTer is not a product".

https://misteraddons.com/collections/all

>>7316579
Not "filtered". Just showing people that MiSTer is a product being sold.

>>7311818
Are they software emulators or FPGAs?

>>7318001
FPGA based hardware emulation. I guess you could call it a mixture of both hardware and software emulation as the cores themselves still need to be written by someone who is competent

>>7311859
buy those chink rebuilds instead they should accept 32x idk about the sega cd

So don't buy anything from Misteraddons. I don't know why you have a problem with misteraddons, but why not go over to Etsy and buy the same kind of products that Zerohimself makes and sells.
Are you seriously this fucking retarded when it comes to economics? You're probably a faggosocialist.

>>7318896

>faggosocialist
I oppose the Nazi party and the Democrat party.

Either way this was to prove a point that MiSTer is a product. That's cool that Zero makes and sells them on Etsy. I've always been a fan of Etsy because it helps small business owners.

>>7320635
MiSTer is a project. What is it about buying a DE-10 from anywhere in the world that was designed for students to learn FPGA programming on, you don't understand. MiSTer isn't a product. It's a Project that uses the DE-10. You don't have to buy a single thing connected to the MiSTer project to use it. What is so fucking hard to understand about that?

>>7320635
Did no one bother to tell you the Download was free? You don't even need to register. Hell you don't even need to download the files from their website. You can download someone's image file from archive and slap it on a SD and put it into a DE-10 that you bought from fucking digikey and you're done. You have a MiSTer.

>>7320635
>>7320686
I bought One. ONE fucking thing from MiSTerAddons. And that was a 128MB Sdram card. And that was only because Zero was out of stock. Otherwise I would have purchased everything MiSTer related from him on Etsy. People make these PARTS in their homes. With off the shelf parts they order from big electronics manufacturers that I can guarantee you have never even heard of some gamebox called a MiSTer.

>>7320635
Even the files for the PCB production are free and out there for people to download and order their own blank PCB's With or Without some faggyLOGO on the PCB.

>>7316553
You don't need it, sure. But that doesn't really work as an argument when you don't need the device itself. If we're comparing apples to apples it needs to offer everything the Analogue equivalent does, and the fact is it costs a lot more to go MiSTer.

Cart best retro consoles will out live us for the most part. Replace the caps every 20 years and your good to go. Why waste money on the fake hipster clone

The only one I'd say is worth buying is the Pocket, as it offers utility over something like the Mister in that it's portable. Analogue's products are nice, just incredibly unnecessary and over priced. The pocket actually has a worthwhile niche

Assuming it ends up being decent anyway

>>7320759
Maybe if you're not smart enough to do anything custom, but a MiSTer does so much more than just a single aftermarket Video Game Console.
Yay... you can play Snes Carts on a HDMI television. Is that really worth the price of an Anal ogue? I can run software on more computers than most people can fit inside their home on a MiSTer.
