Hi,
I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction in terms of finding the cheapest possible home console option.
I live in a house with a few other friends, and we are looking to buy a games console, but are on a very tight budget (Probably around the £50 inc. accessories). We don't mind a retro console (N64, GNC, PS2) if there is some way to get one of these cheaply.
Or is there some other option such a cheap android PC setup like the Raspberry Pi that we could get emulators running off? There will probably be 2-4 of us playing most of the time.
We are particularly partial to Nintendo, including the Mario Party & Mario Kart series (especially the GCN titles), but these are not a must.
Also, I have a mac (with windows 7 bootcamp) if that helps. Also, the TV that we would probably be working with only has component plugs (red white and yellow ones), a SCART plug, etc. No HDMI port or VGA port...
So what do you think? Is there any way that we can manage to find a console that will be a lot of group fun?
Thanks a lot in advance for any advice you can give.
P.S. ignore my country, we are actually in London, UK.
