HP Slate 7 Extreme

how the wii

Good if you have an old CRT TV. Can't emulate anything past 4th gen, so no PS1 or N64.
>>
>>3305392
wat about arcade games

>>3305392
PS1 emulates really well

Decent.

No tablet. Get a GPD XD.

You're not going to have fun on a touchscreen or a controller hooked up to a tablet.

Just get a crap pc or psp
>>
>>3305392
It emulates PS1 fine, I was playing Gran Turismo 2 on it like 20 minutes ago, dunno about other games. For N64 there are shittons of injected VC games that work perfectly (apparently).

>touch controls
NEEEEEGROOOOO PLEASE

>>3305367
dont do it man ABORT

>>3305392
N64 you can make fake load injectors for games. There was a pack a while back with most of the library in format for a wad installer to handle.

You can get surface pros 1-3 for cheap used. Under $500 for the higher end i7 pro 3 and under $150 with keyboard for the pro 1. Totally capable of PSP, MAME or Dreamcast and older.

PS2 or Gamecube era is interesting. Some games are 100% and others you can't even boot the game.

Even the Surface 3 with the x7 can handle the same stuff as above, as long as you go for the 4gb of ram version.

All of those support BT and have full sized usb for any controller you want.

Got ps1 and Dreamcast working on a kindle fire with an Xbox controller.

My thoughts exactly, but to each their own

Smartphones and tablets (normie devices) are the LEAST authentic way to do retrogaming.
>>

Does the kindle and other e-readers have a different screen than tablets like the ipad?

How does this screen difference affect the look of retro games?

Does the kindle have more battery life than tablets?

Does the kindle have a USB jack to plug controllers or do I have to use bluetooth?

Does the kindle have a headphone jack?

a wii is basically equivalent to a smartphone.

I do retro gaming on all kinds of devices. I have legit hardware and PVMs. I have real arcade cabs but I like emulation too.
>>
get a psp, they're like dirt cheap and leagues better than a smartphone.
>>
>>3306245
Actual kindles and similar use e ink which is completely unsuited to absolutely anything that isn't reading. Kindle Fire and such are just standard branded tablets that are mostly mediocre at best.

No, fuck you and that piece of shit console.
A CFW'd PS3 is far better.

Look up Android/Win8 dualboot tablets on chinese ebay, they're fine for their price. I use mine mainly as masturbation aid device, but once I played some Neo Turf Masters with a dualshock while being out in the woods. Shit is comfy.

I have a tablet and it really sucks for playing most games. I can do solitaire, but it's not a retro version. The most I think you'll be able to manage without having physical buttons underneath your fingers is menu turn based JRPGs

>I can do solitaire, but it's not a retro version.

The games that come included with Windows are at the very bottom of the gaming hierarchy.

Only the lowest of casuals play that shit.

Imagine some elderly retired couple in their trailer park home taking turns playing this game on their old beige shitbox PC.

They have no conception of what real gaming is like and no curiosity to look beyond the games folder in the start menu.

What a fucking pitiful existence.
