  1. Funny how my Mini Classic is now the most 'expensive' console I own... Here you can buy them for €169,- (=$179,-) (Was €179,-, they give €10,- discount!): https://www.conrad.nl/nl/nintendo-nintendo-classic-incl-controller-incl-30-games-1491304.html This is getting ridiculous.
  2. Wow, midnight here (4:54am) = Rush hour on atariage!

      Son (5) was finished sleeping... yawn...

  3. Just guessing, but for people who are less tech-savvy, it would be easier to buy a 2nd hand game, pop in the cd instead of downloading / copying an iso. But those people would probably not be aware of the existence of such device.
  4. Here a no-vote for DLC. I prefer my games to be complete. Btw. I bought Super Mario Run for ios (for my children) and I haven't even managed to run the game on more than one device. So my first digital Nintendo download leaves already a negative impression.
  5. Going to upgrade Ballblazer from 4K to 16K. What was that 'Bankswitching' thing? :D

      That's what happened when I finally got tired of Citi overcharging me for everything.

  6. It would be ironic if the Nes Classic has better Genesis emulation than the atgames console.
  7. Maybe Nintendo thought, what if a family member watches Netflix in docking mode, and you want to play a game? That's exactly what would happen in my house. having kids seriously increased my use of portable devices.
  8. You're right. Access to a NAS is more a convenience to me.
  9. I loved Pilotwings bitd. Just floating around doing nothing If I remember correctly, it was made by SGI people: http://www.retrogamer.net/retro_games90/the-making-of-pilotwings-64/
  10. No Netflix on the 3ds in europe, so I'm already prepared for the Switch :-)
  11. I heard they are working on a plug 'n play version of then gcvideo mod: http://www.retrocollect.com/News/plug-n-play-nintendo-gamecube-hdmi-out-modification-gcvideo-coming-soon.html I could solder it myself but I hate drilling holes in a gamecube.
  12. Well, it would be cool if the Zimba had LAN so you can have a huge NAS with all games on it.
  13. I hate 16 hour working days :(

      They just finished the presentation of the product and everyone was happy so mission accomplished. Monday I'll continue bugfixing :D

      I used to work 16 hour days around Christmas at a beverage warehouse, pulling orders and loading them. That was positively brutal. I won't do that anymore!

      I've done those before. But they're typically self-inflicted, because I don't like leaving things unfinished just because the company I work for is too cheap to hire additional personnel.

  14. I just pledged $99,- for a 'SUPER EARLY BIRD Gameband Terraria' 19 left now. It looks like a cool niche product.
  15. Does it have de gcvideo mod? http://www.badassconsoles.com/gcvideo-1/
  16. Non really permanently hooked up, but my gamecube is my most played system. I still have a pile of 'to play' games next to my tv. I bought it new, so it's probably 15 years old now?
  17. I was the one that chose Sunshine What I like about it: - Wonderful setting, music, ambiance. It has a certain 'feel' that I like - Big levels. - Some levels can be very hard, like the 'secret' levels: I also played Galaxy and Galaxy 2, but I found the levels too short. Great games though, very polished.
  18. The Vega+ didn't do any teasing / announchements that I'm aware of, and the fundraising was an instant success. I think Retroblox should me clear about their product. It's still vague to me. [armchair ceo]They lose momentum this way[/armchair ceo]
  19. Why not a module that lets you play tapes! Expirience long loading times like in the 80's!.
  20. What would be cool is a box where you can just put your dc / ps2 / gc / xbox discs in, and just connect your dc / ps2 / gc / xbox joysticks to. And play games in 4k. It would be possible of course with tinkering, but I hate tinkering.
  21. Backwards approach again. First ask for money, then deliver prototypes / specs etc. Since the Chameleon we all developed a 6th sense for when something is 'off'
