ChaosArgate posted:Yes, this is a viable option for people who play on screens that only have HDMI in. I love "just play it on the original console" arguments because they never take into account that maybe people don't have immediate access to all their childhood consoles. My N64 is in an attic 2000 miles away, thanks for the advice!

It still strikes me as funny that Nintendo was the first company to release an HDMI-only console. The last company to use cartridges; notoriously behind the times when it comes to online features. Also the first to require (for 5.1 sound) a fancy receiver capable of accepting uncompressed surround audio channels, but I believe that's just because they didn't want to pay the fees for Dolby sound formats.

I needed to use it for a few months because I have my systems connected to a 1440p monitor that doesn't have audio out, so I needed to wire audio out from that port to my speakers.

I'm wavering on whether to get the Puzzle & Dragons bundle or not. Someone convince me one way or the other, please. I don't own an iphone or tablet device.

I live in a rather spacious apartment but I had a hell of a time convincing my wife that I should keep an old CRT setup out in the open. Ideally I'd have a second but one must learn to choose battles carefully.

Nintendo should bring back the cereal. If they are going to revive the world championship, then they should go the whole hog.

A New Beginning is fine but Story Of Seasons is an all-around better version of the same general game, from what I gather.
