I had Tetris, but the watch gobbled a whole CR2032 within two weeks.... That's absurd, and impractical to use as a daily driver.

Yeah they were pretty mean but I had an infinite supply as my Grandmother's hearing aids used the same battery and she had a drawer rammed full of em 🤣

Now all I need is a cheaper SNES FPGA solution, PPUs dying left and right or suffering from bit rotting.

Analogue should bring the Super NT back and even better I wish they'd revive the NT(mini) but with a normal plastic shell (not milled aluminum or whatever) to keep the price at least in line with their other more recent consoles. I've got the Super NT and the A3D is on the way next month (so they say), but during their Famicom era Analogue's stuff was much more expensive and limited - I never got one. : (

Nearly 300$CDN. Pricy still but less pricy than the Analogue 3D.

With the included controller I'd have four controllers total, as long as the ED64 2.5 works on it? I'd be set!

Normally I'd parrot the common claim "get a MiSTer" but in this case the MiSTer already has a really decent SNES core so I'd fully expect the M64 to get that ported over. Now if you meant a seperate device then something cheaper DOES exist. The Tang FPGA boards have been the subject of some interesting projects the for the past few years. They're like...$69 USD. The company making the FPGAs plans to release a souped up version with the acrylic case and SDRAM installed for like $80 in the future. Hopefully the FPGA cores for the Tang FPGAs end up accurate, I'd keep an eye on it. Theres also an FPGA based CPU replacement project for the SNES being worked on that could be soldered on. The core that FPGA runs was spun off of the SNESTANG project so...maybe they're already accurate.
 
Snes Mini :cry:

In 2019 found 2 NES Mini for $700 MXN at Walmart, but the SNES Mini it's been around $10,000 MXN since debut until now!

Around 2023 found a guy selling SNES Mini for $1500 and, well... was going to buy one but when I asked if they were the real deal, seller replied: "Yes real hahaha".
At that price you might want to consider a real SNES and the SD2SNES.

Super Nt 2 please. Bring in the improved OS from the Pocket/3D, with built in bluetooth and such. And make them a bit easier to get/less exclusive...

currently, I want famicom floppy drive! I have AVS that is compatible with famicom floppy disk drive. It's such a cool device + the games are so unique and different from the US versions that we got.

Please tell me that's in Pesos, because I still see them up here in North America for about retail price of $80 or so.
Yes.

We pay:
- Product price
+
- Import Tax (added value from stores, varies with gas and dolar price)
+
- IVA (spanish acronim that stands for: Added Value for Import which is added by government and percentage varies from product to product, usually around ±20%)
+
- Whatever the seller wants to add for profit
+
- Shipping if online store


Don't ask how much a "high end" computer is over here because the most basic one is around $35,000 MXN.
 
I'm glad us Americans don't have to pay any import/VAT like the rest of the world. If people held my packages hostage for an additional fee before delivery, I would rage.
That's my secret captain, i'm always angry.

I love that the Famicom Disk System has its own mascot
Diskun.webp

Disk-kun or Diskun

I'm tempted too to get an FDS for my AV-modded Famicom, but for now I play the disk games off a bootleg Everdrive.
 
I once dreamed of owning an Atari Jaguar, mainly because of Aliens vs. Predator. I played it on an emulator, but I'd love to see how it really runs on original hardware. And now, a Jaguar with that title costs a fortune.
