Why are people so excited about the NES Classic?
You can literally build your own
>Raspberry Pi 3
>NES theme case
>NES controller
>SD card
>Emulators
>Roms
>plays better
>more games
>configurable
>CHEAPER
I wouldn't even be surprised if the NES Classic actually had a Raspberry Pi in it, either way - Nintendrones are complete idiots
As if there wasn't already enough clear evidence that Nintendrones aren't complete autists, here is another reason
>Rare Replay is just fine
>But this is somehow too much
>>345089593
Because at least Rare Replay made the theoretical value of each game $1 (total was $30 instead of $60), and some of the games on there were impossible to emulate (or near-impossible, like Conker)
NES emulators have come to the point where it's near perfect. There's really no need for something like this that can't even accept other games
>>345089697
How about you dont buy it then...no one is forcing anyone
>>345089697
Holy shit, double standards
"It's OK when Rare does it"
>>345089697
>Rare apologists in [CURRENT YEAR]
i liked the nes classic better when it was called the Wii.
>>345089829
>>345089769
I'm not saying Rare is innocent by any means, but they're definitely the lesser of two evils/dumbasses in this scenario.
>>345089767
That can be said for damn near anything. I'm simply stating a point.
>>345089593
How is this relevant to the thread? who gives a shit about rare replay and their shit games
people aren't excited about the games, they are excited about the hardware
"omg it's a mini nintendo"
"it's a new console"
that's the whole gimmick of it and selling point... where they fail to realize is that you can make one your own
>>345089697
Nobody gives a fuck about Rare. At least Nintendo can leverage casuals/lapsed fans who want to replay the classics from their youth.
>>345089593
>implying Rare Replay is fine
How do you go about building a raspberry pi? I'm shit with tech stuff.
>>345089458
>The people that are intelligent enough to build an electronic device, no matter how simple
>The people that are excited about paying $60 for some 30 year old games
Pick one.
Honestly I only fear that Nintendo might crack down on emulation because of it.
>>345089458
Because this is actually real
>>345090173
>Nintendo might crack down on emulation
they can't. emulation is legal. they already tried and failed to stop it, so did sony.
>>345089458
This might blow your mind but some people want to support the company. Personally I'll download roms all day every day but there are real fans that will not touch a game unless they officially pay for it first.
One of my friends is such a person, he own a legit cart of Mother 3 in Japanese even though the English rom is pretty much accepted at this point so let be honest here, who will Nintendo see as real fans? The people who are just going to emulate anyway or the people who would actually be willing to buy that?
Kinda a moot point you are even bitching about this. Clearly you aren't a fan of the company so it wasn't made for you in the first place. For Nintendo it is pretty much free money.
>>345090173
The most they did was force CoolROM to remove their Nintendo ROMs but nothing of value was lost because they're a shit malware site now.
>>345090126
Its a single board computer, you can buy kits off of Amazon that have the board, a case, heatsinks, and a power supply for $50 and all you have to do is tick the heatsinks to the chips, mount the board in the case and you're good to go.
After that you just need an SD card loaded with the Linux distro you want to run, and there are a few that are specifically designed for retro console use.
>>345090173
They'd be like a few decades too late for that
>>345090126
just youtube it anon, it's more simplified than ever... even 8 year olds can do it (literally)
if you can use youtube and google, you can build your own
people have built arcades using raspberry pi
i personally have built one using the raspberry pi 1 and use an xbox controller to play in my living room when i'm bored
>>345090467
Whats emulatable? I got a wii setup already. Does it do saturn, n64, or ps1 decently? I'm figuring saturn is a longshot
>>345090019
how do I make a plastic encasement that looks like a NES?
How do I make a NES controller?
Do I need a 3D printer for that?
Is that cheaper?
Will it have exactly the same quality plastic as the real thing?
Can I do all of that for $60 or less?
Pro-tip: the answer is "no" .
>>345089458
>Why are people so excited about the NES Classic?
>You can literally build your own
Same reason people buy consoles.
>>345089458
Collection purposes, nobody really gives a shit about the thing itself, it's just a bait for nostalgia normalfags to get it and put it on a shelv.
>>345089458
That's not made out of Nintendium.
>>345089458
>plays better
You can't even prove this right now.
>plays better
source?
As I grow older and wealthier, I spend more money to save my self time through convenience. Im not buying this but I can see why someone would buy it rather than going through the hassle of putting it together from virus infested ROM sites and Raspberry Pi components.
One day you too will have more money than time, and will see the value of paying for convenience
CUZ I'M NERD!!!
>>345089767
But it still exists.
And things I don't like shouldn't exist at all.
Because the world exists for me me me me meeeeeee!
>plays better
We can't prove this right now.
>>345090665
http://www.lakka.tv/
specifically this page which has the supported hardware on a grid
http://www.lakka.tv/doc/Hardware-support/
Its basically just a Linux distro that boots straight to Retroarch.
>>345090380
there is a difference between a fan and a fanboy
you don't need to FINANCIALLY support something to be a fan or even REAL fan for that matter
you're a typical nintendrone retard
>>345089458
Normalfags don't want to build fuckall, they just want to play out of the box. Are you slow or something?
>>345090706
Guess what, YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO BUY A NES THEME CASE, HURR DURR
It's just for aesthetic purposes
Always wondered about Raspberry Pi, just how strong is it? Can it run Dolphin for instance?
>>345091614
No, most you get out of it is I believe Dreamcast.
>>345089697
>Conker is near impossible to emulate
What? It ran fine on my Duo Core PC with Project 64 + Glide64
>>345091614
No, its no where near that strong. For compatibility purposes its SOC still has an older GPU despite the CPU upgrades its gotten.
For a single board machine capable of running Dolphin we're probably waiting on a Zen/Vega SOC. Even then we're likely also still waiting on Dolphin's Vulkan support.
>>345089458
PCfags you do not have a sound argument with "you can just build one yourself". You can build a lot of things yourself, but different people have different priorities. Get it through your thick skulls.
Finish your backlog first before you buy new games.
So which model of raspberry pi is ideal to get?
>>345092435
Always the latest one, of course.
I can't get any PS1 emulation to work on an i5 (no gfx card). Are there any emulators that rely solely on the CPU?
>>345092435
You would want the Raspberry Pi 3, I think the most common model the 3b would be good.
>>345092515
>>345092626
Cool thanks. I saw some prebuilt ones on ebay for about $55. Though they are from china so i am skeptical about how good their quality is
>>345092585
What i5 and what OS? Its possible you just need to upgrade your drivers. Really in situations where you won't or can't have a GPU you really need to buy AMD to avoid these kinds of problems.
>>345093020
Dell optiplex something or other (super mini form factor) with an i5, 16gb ram and Win 10. It plays everything else like a charm, and most older GoG games. It's attached to a 4:3 22" monitor and it a beautiful piece of harware for old(er) games....except for ps1.
>>345091965
>>345091738
So Retroarch, pretty much, huh?
Not everyone is a nerd with unlimited time like you OP. Some of us actually work. I don't want to waste my free time fiddling with raspberries when I can get a neat little package that Nintendo has made ready for me.
>>345093528
Yeah, Lakka, the console OS for Raspberry Pi that I linked earlier is literally just a Linux distribution that boots straight to Retroarch.
>>345089593
nintendo isn't allowed to get money
>>345093370
Your system probably has the lowest end Intel GPU imaginable, those things are basically built just to run Office. If you find out the CPU model you can find out what the integrated GPU is its still possible you just need the right driver for it.
Windows 10 is a poor choice for a retro gaming system though. Especially one that's going to be used mainly for emulation for obvious reasons.
So could someone give me a basic link to all the shit I'd need? I searched Amazon and found quite a few results for raspberry pi so I'm not sure which one I'd need, or an SD card for that matter.
I'd actually buy the new nintendo thingy if it had games like Mother on it but since it's only got 30 alright games I'd rather just buy the parts
>>345094192

This kit looks like it has everything you would need. Raspberry Pi 3, heatsinks, case, power supply, an SD card, and a HDMI cable.
>>345094513
Bitching, thanks anon, do you think it would need RAM? Probably not since the NES are super small games right?
>>345089458
Its a fucking normie machine
>>345094513
And, also, where the hell do you get remotes? I've got a keyboard and mouse but no NES controllers
>>345090975
Virus infested rom sites. Holy fuck dude are you seriously too stupid to run a virus scan on something you download? To have an adblock? To run a secure OS? Throw your computers out, you're too fucking stupid to own them.
>>345094831
Just plug in any USB gamepad.
>>345094831
Any usb gamepad (or probably blutooth)
But buffalo makes good famicom replicas
>>345094692
Raspberry Pi 3 is a single board machine, it already has RAM on board.
>>345095145
Would these be better than getting the older controllers with just a and b on them?

>>345096020

>>345090126
>How do you go about building a raspberry pi?
Just buy one. Write emulationstation to some old SD card and you're good to go.
Keyboard recommended for initial setup.
>>345089458
So... what OS runs what emulators?
What about a "front end"?
Fuck browsing games with a mouse and keyboard
But i cant find jack shit about how any of this works
I tried installing that hyperspin bullshit and it was so fucking broken and complicated to fully install each fucking game holy fuck that was gay
We live in a world where people buy consoles because PC is too hard, and you don't understand why people would rather buy this than make a Raspberry Pi?
>>345096130
REEEEEEEEEEEE
>>345096294
a raspberry pi has everything needed except a memory card and power cable and mouse and keyboard and monitor
>>345096449
Yeah, I'm sure the mainstream Timmy will download the OS onto an SD card and get the emulators configured.
>>345089458

>>345096515
i mean the kind of people most interested in playing these old games probably would be more the types who would be more interested in building a raspberry pi than the average person
>>345089458
Because Nintendrones are stupid
Nintendo can sell them a bag full of shit and they will still buy it
>>345096595
List every flaw with NES emulation please.
>>345092435
Even the Zero is good enough.
>>345093624
It's literally 10min of googling to setup one m8.
Because that product isn't meant to appeal to people who have knowledge of such things.
It's for people who just want to buy something, plug it in and play.
>>345096880
This is Nintendo. The NES. The staple retro console of this decade or probably the next.
You make it sound as if the audience is the same as the Colleco Chamelleon's
>>345096595
Not him, but it is. I believe you can even now get an NES emulator that fully emulates the 6502 processor for perfect emulation accuracy. It's not near perfect, it is perfect.
>>345096564
Wut

I just use my original NES, actually works surprisingly well on a modern tv.
>>345089458
Bro I don't want to build fuckall, I just want to play out of the box.
>>345097254
I found my clone NES and I did not have that experience. Pixels would not stay put, and they were not square
>>345089458
Can it emulate Saturn and Dreamcast games? What about Mame?
Anyone NOT using 8bitdo's controllers:fair enough but they're really very good. Now I'm going to say something random and out of context to throw you:covered in piss
>>345089458
But the Nintendo classic supports old carts. Nothing else does that.
>>345097359
In my experience the clone repro consoles are generally garbage.
>>345097062
>It's for people who just want to buy something, plug it in and play.
Shame it doesn't come with a power cable then.
>>345089458

And this NES isnt $50 too?
So how the fuck will it be cheaper?
>>345089593

>>345097498

Ones that actually use reproduction hardware, generally the more expensive ones, do a good job. Its ones that are just hardware emulation, the old NES-on-a-chip that fit the entire hardware package into a single plug and play controller or small box, that have more issues.

The only distribution is an image which requires 3rd party bloatware shit to install onto an SD. The only other alternative is to set up your own Raspbian distro.
If you want an example of shit done right, look at OSMC.
Wow that looks like shit. I mean, the NES classic isn't going to win any beauty pageants but at least it won't be looking like it's choking on connections when in use.
>>345098890
>3rd party bloatware shit to install onto an SD
My repos include a USB writer. For Windows there is Rufus. I'm not saying any person should be able to do it, but come on.
>>345096158
Just do what steam os does and add your emulator to the autorun.sh file.

>>345089458
The real question is, why you so people are so butthurt? Why don't you let people be interested in whatever they want?
If it doesn't appeal to you, don't buy it. Trying to convince others not to buy is is stupid. You are worse than actual shills that want to force you to buy something. You are the diametrical opposite and yet just as annoying.
Hell, what tells me you are not a raspberry Pi shills to begin with?

But you still have to admit that the distribution methods are clumsy and awkward for something thats offered as a platform.
>>345099252
>It's open-sourced. That means no one makes money off of it.
Question.
Why would I want the Raspberry Pi when I already have a PC, emulators and a CRT monitor?
>>345089458
What's wrong with actually buying it?
It's cheap, comes with a controller you can use on Wii U/PC and may even be capable of full hacking to put more roms and maybe even new emulators. It also runs on Virtual Console technology.
>>345091031
The thing is that an emulator like OP's pic related is objectively better. It's a choice between a 50-60$ console with a limited number of games and a 50-60$ computer with as many games as you want.You could have a SNES emu if you wanted.

Agreed. The butthurt Nintendo is generating in these day it's unbelievable. And funny too.
It's like I can see hordes of autists raging on their keyboards because people like Nintendo's stuff.

>>345099519
Well, you can just wait to see if they will hack it. The issue with PS TV is that you still need a DualShock and Vita cards, so it's a lot more expensive than it seems.

Depends. Sure, it's not as easy as buying a box and plugging it in. But it's not exaclty rocket surgery either.
>>345100016
That argument may work against the aesthetic aspect, but nostalgia's got nothing to do with hating input lag.
>>345089458
>Why are people so excited about the NES Classic?
Because it "looks cool" and "it's retro", not because it's any good for practical use. If the NES Mini came out 10 or 11 years ago, it would have been incredibly novel.
Any Nintendo fan who buys games on a semi-regular basis, though, has no reason to buy this. Even if you didn't grow up with the NES and like buying your games legally, these games can be obtained from the 3DS, Wii U, or Wii, and most are available on countless other systems (Mega Man, Pac Man, Mario Bros.,). Most of these have been available on Wii (a system more popular than the NES) since 2008 or so.
Outside of barebones emulation, it's a featureless system. The only reason to buy it is if you grew up with the NES and stopped playing virtually all video games shortly thereafter.
...which is why this product exists, I think. It's supposed to be a gateway product.
>>345099282
Except you can emulate any nes game on your toaster in ten minutes, try doing that with a PS4. Consolles VS pc is a whole different argument.
>>345099192
Well, for me anyone can buy whatever they want, but why one should be allowed to post only to say he likes something? Even negative commets can help, maybe someone could make his mind up and change opinion.
Personally, I won't buy it for the reason I already said (I never emulated NES games, but emulated SNES on both my pc and DS, so I'm pretty sure it's more than possible).
>inb4 uhr emulation
It's old as fuck software, and buying a whole thing just to play that doesn't ring my bell.
>>345096962
Good luck getting a Zero, though. Fuckers sell out in an instant because $5 computah
>>345100664
I think it's a pretty cool collector's item.
>>345100664
>Even if you didn't grow up with the NES and like buying your games legally, these games can be obtained from the 3DS, Wii U, or Wii
To be completely fair, those games cost 5 bucks at best on those platforms. By buying 30 in one thing, it's like you pay one dollar for each game, ignoring the costs of the actual thing plus controller included.
>>345100605
Are you going to play FPS multiplayer on it or something? Old arcade games require no reaction, only memorizing.
>>345100852
That's true, but my point was more that people have had access to these games for years and probably own the games that interest them since this system offers no "exclusive" (compared to VC I mean) games. Adding to that, people who bought a 3DS in 2011 got 10 NES games + 3D ExciteBike for free, people who owned a Wii U in 2013 got NES games for 30 cents, etc.
How good are NES emulators anyway? I've got one but I have no idea how close it is to the original product
>>345090706
You can get a raspberry pi and connect a genuine NES controller for less
If you seriously buy a gadget like that for aesthetics - kill yourself, applefag
>>345100215
Wait you have to soldier on a rasberry Pi?
>>345101215
I guess, like other people said, this is more a move from Nintendo to attract those that don't own any Nintendo platform or simple collectors. I strongly doubt this is catered to long time fans or "hardcore" players that freely emulate those game.
Which is also why I really don't understand people being made at the thing.
>>345101272
Basically perfected.
>>345089458
I just want to getmy dad one for Christmas because it's the only console he'll play aside from Wii for Wii Sports.
>>345101642
you don't, not when using it as an emulator
>>345101590
The only positive thing about it is Nintendo making a non Internet console and not having to buy it through VC. But still emulation is way better.
literally just get a fucking emulator you dumb raspautist
>>345089458
So what?
Do the buying habits of other people trigger you in some way?
>>345090307
just because it's easy to do and can't be stopped doesn't mean it's legal.
>>345102505
You know it's legal to watch pirated movies.
>>345102505
Emulators are legal. Using copyrighted backups is illegal.
https://www.nintendo.com/corp/legal.jsp#emulator
Even Nintendo's legal phrasing never calls emulators illegal.
I already have an USB stick with every NES game on it and an emulator

I really want a Raspberry Pi, not just for emulation but to experiment with, but this heatsink shit is really off-putting, is there any way around it? I built computers before and not like i mind learning but this kind of really physical stuff where i have to ply or cut or any of that is mostly the most annoying part of anything.

It's a cheap tiny PC. It's better then this nes thing.
>le raspberry pi meme
>in 2016
stop forcing this shit meme, its not even a good company and there are better ones out there

>The only positive thing about it is Nintendo making a non Internet console
So theres no way to put more than 30 games into that thing?

I guess the reason EU doesn't get a plug is because USB phone chargers are standardised. Sure, it's cheap of them to not supply the plug, but it's not a deal-breaker.

I'm curious if its hackable. If it's using a sd card you might be able to load many roms.
>>345092127
I can't, buying new games is one of the very few things in life that makes me feel good
>>345089458
>>plays better
debatable
>>more games
okay
>>configurable
okay, but the flipside is that the nes classic is plug'n'play
>>CHEAPER
nope - more bang for your buck, but not cheaper

You can literally play ehese games on any Nintendo console! They have been selling the same games for 30 years now!

Not everyone knows how to install emulators or a theme case or some bullshit. Not everyone knows Raspberry Pi even exists. Also, unlike you, I bet they'd be concerned that installing roms for free is against the law.
This is normalfags we're talking about here, you know. Of course they'll take the easy way and buy the mini NES, especially since it's made by Nintendo itself.

I love what Yahtzee said about this. In reference to people giving him shit for having a prebuilt because you can just build it yourself, he said yeah and I could also go hunting to make smoked venison but i consider certain things beyond me.
If you have money to buy something that is relatively cheap that saves you time, then you could use that time for something else (like say, work in order to make back the cost or even more).

>Raspberry Pi components
Literally just buy a raspberry pi, put in a pre-installed sd card, plug it into your tv with HDMI and then plug in your phone charger (presuming your phone charger is the type that apple doesn't use)
t: employed person with money and time
>>345092805
>prebuilt ones
>built
You don't build a raspberry pi. You just buy one and then put it in a case like you would put your phone in a case
>>345089458
considering is really cheap I might get it if only for collectible purposes
>>345107093
You don't even necessarily need a case. I have a couple of zeros running bare, and a 3 in mini cereal box.
I'm not excited anon
But I wasn't created for me
It's not created for you
Nobody fucking cares if you can build your own emulator
It's for convenience
This not existing isn't going to suddenly make something you want
Get the fuck over it, it's useless to whine over fucking filler

Mini-NES
>$60 and plug-n-play
>no time investment whatsoever
Raspberry Pi + SD card + case + controller
>$40 + $15 + $15 + $20 + $12 + shipping (prob another $8-12) = $100+ total
>requires hours of looking online, ordering, downloading ROMs, building it, etc.
You aren't even making sense right now.
I'll probably just get one of the standalone controllers for emulation/VC stuff.

>people aren't excited about the games
Speak for yourself.
>>345109413
are you excited about the games?
For a cheap enough price, I would love to play NES games with a HDMI hook up.
I'm just like why NES?
Should have been GC or N64
Hell even SNES
>>345089458
>build your own
This is why, retard.
It's why consoles exist at all.
>>345089458
the same normies playing pokemon go dont know about emulators
So is it an NES or is it a small computer with an emulator in it?
>>345103230
>but this heatsink shit is really off-putting, is there any way around it?
Protip: you don't need one
