Oh yeah, I forgot another reason I passed was because I bought an aes. LoL

still the main reason is I want to finally build a jamma porta pi mini cabinet 

The first pad is the neo cd pad. The reason for the changed pads for the mini is more inline for KoF play but they can be changed in the options from what I saw.

personally I abandoned getting one atm because i’m gonna go a different route at end of year.

Not sure if this is know here (found out on YouTube), if you have a jpn eshop account, you can download the famicom app then run it using your account that has paid online service to get access to the famicom versions of the games. Will come in handy when jpn starts getting exclusive titles.

I'm honestly debating on buying a Vita Slim and adding CFW ala PSP at this point. 

Do it ... do it ...

or even get a vita tv and cfw that!

Well, I love beat 'em ups from that era, so at $20, it was an easy buy for me. 

 

But you're talking to someone who spends hundreds and hundreds of dollars on the arcade PCBs.

Yep, i’m the same. So that is kind of why i’m curious if they’re still holding up for you.  I think the $20 point is a good one.

Playing yokai busters and sonic mania (finally). Thinking about what I want to take with me for a business trip in another week.

I've been playing some Final Fight on the Capcom Beat 'Em Up collection that released today on Switch.

Would you say it’s worth getting the collection or does it’s fun run thin after a while? I kind of want to get butafter getting the sf collection I only played a few mins then got bored

I think an even bigger shame is how much Sony botched the vita tv. It’s a fantastic device hampered by their short sidedness with the game whitelist restrictions. I think there is only really 2-5 games that can’t work/will crash and those could have been patched/fixed (gyro and camera related)

Didn’t Vita do really well in Japan?

No, it did ok but not great.

Compared to what? It sold better there than it did in NA, but that's not exactly a crowning achievement, especially when compared to other handhelds.

Well compared to Nintendo handhelds, still the 2nd best for non Nintendo handhelds and sold more then a few major consoles in japan. Yet still a far cry from what psp did.

 worse was them saying they have no plans for a follow up.

I’ll take one even though I still have a n64 but I think people will be disappointed with some key titles missing (goldeneye and possibly rare games). 

I got my Canadian preorder in today. Pretty happy about that.

$5 one of those guys is the bus driver to pad out the numbers.

I think it’s time we need to stop making places of work gun free zones. If simply that box of cheerios had a gun then she would have been courteous and everything would be fine.

I'm kind of curious, I wonder if sony is reusing Vita tv parts to build this thing or if they ported everything to a new SOC to make this. My money is on Vita parts.

I do hope MGS makes the list. I played through it again like a year ago and still felt it held up well.

Also, R4 is still beautiful.

Are you sure about that? Link? I know PS2 moved to software on the second gen PS3, but I thought PSX was always hardware based?

@CastlevaniaNut18 pretty much got most of it. 

PS1 on PS3 started hw but swapped to software even on units that still have the ps2 hw. Ps2 also started with hw but some/all? slim model ps2 swapped to a software emulator for ps1 titles.  I sadly can't find the articles that talk about this in detail for ps2 (damn you google) or the one that talks about when ps3 made the swap. =/ I've atleast posted two wiki on the ps1/2 emulators in the ps3 if you're looking for a little more technical info on those.

Yes. All PS3s basically had the PS1 chip in them.

Nope, all ps3 moved to software for ps1. Only first two models had the chip for hw ps1 but even those use sw with later fw.

It’s up for preorder in the USA (not for Canada yet)

Holy hell that initial lineup gives me hope the remaining titles are just as good. At least we know sony’s Ps1 emulators are pretty damn good so this should play well.

I hope Japan gets a modified game list so I have a reason to pick up both 

Service is live, i’ve Already given Nintendo my Monopoly money -.-

“Don’t worry, all mueller will get is some low level covfefe boy...” 

Part of the experience with gaming is pulling out the box and even checking the manual if it has one. It’s also nice to easily see what’s in my collection when it’s physical and I can see unopened games I haven’t gotten around to playing. On the flip side I barely remember what I own digitally on some systems and it’s a nightmare to figure out what is there to dl (looking at u ps3/vita).

It’s also nice to know that if for some reason I need to liquidate my collection I can still get some $$ back from it (I use to build up then sell off my collection when I was bored of it to have cash to spend on the next collection)

Well I don't play online on my Switch. I think the price is reasonable since the online structure is a joke. Here is what will get me to jump in. Nintendo doesn't know online but they know hardware. The NES joycons that you can only get if you have a Nintendo Online account is what is going to get me. 

 

Agreed, I feel if I don’t grab a pair the already crazy price is just going to get worse. 

Playing Yo-Kai Blasters On 3ds atm. Might consider picking up another 3ds game next week to take on a business trip at the start of October. 

Just wanted to check in on Yo-kai Busters. I'm having fun replaying through the game in english. It's not mind blowing good but still much fun like a saturday morning cartoon. So consider giving it a shot sometime before the game becomes hard to pick up (It's nintendo published but I'm not seeing many copies up here in canada).

I may need that black and red unit. I’m thinking of importing.

Nah it's too generic. If you really want a red unit the Pokeball one is still the best.

And if you were to go for imports. The DQ Slime n2DS XL is very nice...

That sounds like a lot of fun. Sadly I don't have enough people to convince to do a retro game night at my place. On the flip side at a previous company when we did game night there I would try to bring in something retro or different.  When I did PC-Engine it was great but wish I had more then 2 controllers =(
