PS1 games are generally more substantial, that would be neat.
Too recent for them to get sweet deals on games and IPs though, not to mention unit price being a lot higher due to needing better hardware and much more storage as well as a more complex controller.

You have to be a moron to think this was aimed at gamers. There's a reason they just posted this out of nowhere and didn't present it at e3 or something. It's a quick buck. It's like a new skylanders amiibo.

>>345332169
But they aren't. Nintendo was caught with ROMs on the virtual console that had headers of community-made tools.
>>
>>345331582
As OP says, it literally doesn't open, I wouldn't say that's an improvement
>>
>>345332314
Are you talking about the "buy a box on amazon and put it together" kind of raspberry box, or "dig out your shit, go down to your local arts college and borrow their 3D printer, break out the soldering tools and build a motherfucking box out of some motherfucking scraps" kind of emulator box?

>>345329863
Ps1 games run on every single hardware sony has put out BUT the ps4
Ps2, psp, ps3, psv, all can play ps1 games easilly, and sony already has a tiny box that plays ps1 games too. It's called the pstv

>>345332464
You can't put phyiscal games in it, the inside of it would get dirty if you were able to open it for no reason whatsoever. Keeping it clean is an improvement.

nintendo has the virtual console

and even then they are releasing this

this is another market entirely, and a psone hdmi knockoff would sell good
>>
>>345332583
Nope, it is not an improvement, I would say it is the exact opposite of an improvement. I call it an unimprovement
>>
>>345332523
I was thinking about the former. I think people curious about the raspi as an emu box aren't picky on the looks of the hardware. generic case, hide it behind the tv, and you're good.
The difference to the artisan box is only visually anyway. You can do the amazon box in a day, use it, play it, etc. Then, if you're crafty inclined, you can spend a week or two to make it all shiny and pretty. Though you still don't need to solder or cut wire for that, so I have no idea where that comes from
>>
>>345332757
Your personal feelings are not important though. I gave you an example of why it's better and you basically decided not to listen to me because you don't want to. You're literally behaving like a 6 y/o so fuck off, there's no point arguing with you.

>>
>>345332742
Nintendo's vc is system specific for some stupid reason

All you do is write the program or os on a micro sd card. These videos are no more than 10 minutes.

Soldering is more for editing the bios or other things.
>>
>>345333025
not yet, it's on my own to-do list. Just google for raspi, os, emulation and you'll find plenty of hits. The machine itself is tiny, and you do want a box right away, but it has all the connectors you need to get going, there's no hotwiring that thing or anything.

>>
>>345333172
>That's the idea
Then Nintendo is not communicating it well, or you're being deliberately misleading. I was under the impression it's a little nostalgia box, not meant to be an insulting chink clone.
As for the crude and rude thing, Nintendo is trying to sell this thing, asking money for it. Usually in a business it's common courtesy to provide value for the price asked. This box is a very simple plastic mold, which is why I called it crude. It would cost them very little to make that little part physically functional. Deciding not to, sends a message to the buyer that they're being careless and needlessly greedy. That's my reason to call it rude.

You don't need to make one. There all premade but you just have to write whatever program you want on an micro sd card. You can download roms from the device directly.

... maybe it'll include not 30 but 100 games. Only the remaining 70 are amiibo based. Got to put your little amiibo on top of the box and their respective game becomes available at the selection screen

Why is everyone making a big deal out of this? We've had shit like this before with the Genesis and ColecoVision.

It's just something for normies who don't know how emulation works to buy.

>>345337803
>>345337915
But then you can still ONLY play NES games, with an RPI you can play NES, SNES, N64, Genesis, MAME, PS1, Dreamcast, Master System, and everything else

Not really as it changes nothing.
It's just looks, you don't need a case for the pi.
I have my pi hanging behind my TV with the shortest HMDI thingie I could get.

>>345338387

It's perfectly useable without those if you transfer ROMs via USB.
Otherwise you only need a KB

"can't even find rims"... Not sure where you're searching, but there are sites.
Just search a little.
And remember, as long as the ROM doesn't come as an EXE file or such, it's pretty difficult to put a virus into one AFAIK. The most a person could do is put a troll ROM up.

Why is everyone getting so angry about this? Just don't buy it. Not everyone obsesses over the best way to play vidya like we do, it's clearly more for them than for us.

I'm not asking for anything. You faggots keep screaming about how there are cheaper options, well list them. If it's SOOOO stupid to pay money for this case, what are the magical alternatives?

Found one for ~$16
It's even smaller, and has USB built in instead of whatever controller ports nintendo is using so it saves you the trouble of eventually having to get a usb port.

At this point I think a gun to shoot yourself would be a good investment for you

Nothing can "deliver a true console experience on an entire library". But short of Nintendo manufacturing the chips again and building a real NES, which is highly unlikely, plus having a CRT on which to display everything, that is not achievable.
It's emulation all the way down.
You're just changing the vendor.

>>345341161
That's assuming you make things more efficient while forgetting the requirements.
For example, the car example would be solved by mentioning that the more expensive car better met your requirements.
If one aims to have a physical product that they can connect to their TV with a controller, then a mini-NES, a real NES, or a Raspberry Pi + replica controller would fit the job, and the Raspberry Pi + replica controller ought to be more efficient.
