+wongojack Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Exciting, but not enough for me to take action. I have plenty of ways to play NES games already, including mobile options. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Dangerous Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Saw that this AM. Too risky at this point. If I could play the whole NES library on my Switch with minimal risk I might be interested in getting that done. Can with my NES mini already, and everdrive, this just adds the portable element which admittedly would be cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I can't wait to see the selfish whining once Nintendo starts banning people over it acting like they are the bad guy in it. It always happens. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eightbit Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 (edited) I too have a zillion and one ways to play NES games (and have since the days of Nesticle) but I like this service specifically because I can play two player games with a friend without the friend being here. You can also "pass" the controller to a friend while playing a single player title. This is where the service shines. I will be playing NES games with friends often using this feature. That is great! I won't be hacking it and risking a ban that would lose that feature over trying to play some NES roms...just dumb.

godslabrat Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 IMO, this is like buying a Tesla, slapping some blades on the bottom, and thinking you're a genius for turning it into a lawnmower. The hackers are missing the point, completely. I get that "because we can" is their way of life, but I think we established 15 years ago that any device with a power cord could play nes games, if you tweaked it long enough.

Tanooki Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Agreed there's no because we can at this rate with that, it's straight up just for piracy whatever the front facing excuse is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
