Playstation classic is unfortunately garbage selection without hacking in more fames.

>>12025329
That's not the main problem for me

The shitty emulation,the 50hz games ,the controller ,the shitty filters...

I wish Konami hadn't been fucking retarded with the distribution of it. I would have gladly bought one if I could have, but i think Amazon was the only place to get the US version, and they canceled preorders the first time and delayed it for i think a few months. Plus I hear they have fucky usb ports or something and you can fry the controller board. Wish they would do a 2nd run of them.

not retro

Here's a fun tidbit: The PC Engine and TurboGrafx-16 Minis are the only official re-releases Snatcher has seen since the 1996 Sega Saturn version. The game isn't even on the Japanese PSN store, which is pretty irregular for a Konami game of its magnitude.

The USB stick hack fixes all that though. Hacked, the PS is the best mini console.
>>
>>12025750
At that point why not use hardware you already have for free?
>>
>>12025306
I only have A500 and Snes, both were fun for about a month.
Snes had the cool replay feature but A500 was better to actually play and had more screen options, I really had a lot of fun with Zool. I liked just letting the Snes run in the background to show my replays, it would be good to hack it to make them last longer, only Mario RPG has a long replay file.
Megadrive had those really cool extra games, Starmobile was really surprisingly fun and the others too.

mini playstations were $19.99 including 2 controllers , and a USB stick that gave it every game for every console was like $9. The emulation was excelllent and you loaded NA roms instead of PAL.

There was no better value in the history of emulation.

Alright, sounds like a pretty good deal if you need an emulation box for your TV
Can you hack it so it can emulate other consoles too?
>>
>>12025902
It does up to dreamcast.
>>
>>12025902
it does up to dreamcast, but only some dreamcast games (a bit janky with sound stutter). but anything older than dreamcast is fine.

>There was no better value in the history of emulation.
the space that it wastes that could be instead used by an actually decent emulation box means that it is negative value
>>
>>12025904
>>12025905
For $20 that's still pretty good
>>
>>12025914
>the space that it wastes
the entire unit is only slightly larger than a single SNES cart. What fucking world do you live in?

the only rival "emulation box" back in 2018 was a pi 3B+ or a $200 nvidia shield.

mini PCs existed back in 2018, and even the shittiest one would be a much better emulation box than this
>>
>>12025972
>mini PCs are $20 and include 2 controllers
Are you the same cunt who shits up every other thread?
Original console hardware on CRT thread?
>hurrr use a free PC
FPGA hobbyist thread?
>durrrr just use a free PC
handheld chinese emulator thread?
> "use a handheld PC!"
Steamdeck or Rog Ally emulator thread?
>waste of money! just use a free desktop pc
Mini console thread
>you are here

>Mini console thread
if you said "i like this because it is so tiny and cute" like the faggot you are, i wouldn't have said anything. but you come here telling us that this shit SBC with the bottom of the bin MediaTek SoC is a good emulation box, and that's just bullshit. even your phone in 2018 would likely be 10 times faster than this piece of e-waste.
>>
>>12026062
the complaint was out of the box PS classic had 50hz games and a poor emulator.
The conversation was more or less "you can easily mod that and put on proper games with better emulation, and do other consoles while you are at it", and then you stepped in.
Just fuck off and go back to bothering the people in the Mister thread, they are probably wondering where you are.

>>12026081
i never even visited this board before yesterday, you delusional schizo. don't worry, i won't stay for long, all there is here is retards like you giving shit advice based on emotions instead of facts, and trolls with the lowest quality bait.
