UPDATE: With new information this thread has been updated. The original post is in this spoiler:

No HDMI however, so it's doubtful the emulator is up to snuff.


I knew there would be copycats, just I was expecting them to be HDMI. That being said it looks nice, but no idea about the picture/sound quality.


So to summarize: There is a fake NES Classic with composite video (yellow, red, white plugs) and Sega controller ports. But that's not important right now.


What is important: There is what looks to be a near-perfect replica of the NES Classic clone, which has been dubbed the "NES Crassic" (whether because it's crap or just to mock the stereotypical Asian accent remains to be seen). It has HDMI out and Wii accessory connectors, just like the real thing. Discussion starts page 2.

Pro: uses the original controllers

Con: No HDMI

Oh yeah, I saw an ad for those on Facebook, check out the site, they come with "500" games, most of which are bootleg garbage :lol: You can see how bad the picture quality is in those screenshots.

Pro: Lots of games built in.

Con: Some of them seem to be duplicates.

Looks pretty decent actually, since it's not HDMI I'm assuming that this is just an ordinary famiclone, not that that's necessarily a bad thing, but those are everywhere so this is not exactly something new, although they usually try to pass them off as something else entirely so the design is either original or just ripped off another console.

Eh at least it's well made and not garbage like I was expecting. Does need HDMI though.

Nintendo has lost the chance to cash in on their NES Classic. I never understood the appeal of the system myself.

No, I was speaking to you about using NES on a modern TV being a lost cause, which lead you to say

"True. Fine. Rather use Wii U NES emulation.

Yeah.

I went there."

To which I replied that I'm not stupid enough to use Nintendo's crappy VC emulator, but Nestopia instead.

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
