Is Sega age pretty bad or just has too many people low balling you. I figured it should have a good amount of people who would treasure this.

I have no idea where all the Sega collectors is then. It's just probably because it's not as well known as anything Nintendo is. Sorry, I really wish I could help more, I don't want you to become homeless.

flyboi posted:Hate to be "that guy" but I think you might be overvaluing that system by quite a lot. On average the console with all hookups tends to go for $200-ish. The box alone goes for around $200 on eBay. I don't think the manuals, bags and cds make up for the rest of your asking price. The original price, maybe so, but the new-reduced offer is probably roughly what it should be. A not complete X'eye (with several games, nothing special) sold for around $600, and the box is in worse shape,no foam inserts, and not complete with manuals and inserts like the one he's offering. Considering how rare it really is in this condition, it's not surprising to see the price skyrocket.

Uncle at Nintendo posted:Wait what? The 3DS version isn't going to have downloadable levels from other users?? You can but only in challenge mode or recommended modes. Apparently you can't just enter in someone's code and find their level and you don't get course world. Yes it's stupid.

dishwasherlove posted:New GBA Everdrive update with GB and. GBC emulation built into the UI. Nice. That's awesome. Krikzz isn't worried about cannibalizing gb ever drive sales? Or it's still emulation and the gb ever drive is still a better experience? Does this work natively on a micro or still need to use Goomba to make gb games run on a micro?

Ah so it's literally the same thing, just that he baked in Goomba. I appreciate it because otherwise I would have to do some more Goomba patching. Next update could do the built in nes emulation then.

It'll be a couple of hours before I can get to my stuff. Can I have the Goomba and nes gba files in the home directory and run the roms in a folder? Guessing there's not an issue with that.

d0s posted:does artcade go beyond early-mid 80's stuff to late 80's-early 90's? I don't normally go for these books full of PNGs but if it did I would really want that on my coffee table. is there a list of the games in it somewhere? When I get the book I'll update you. I feel like it'll be rooted deeply in the arcade era and show off lots of bezels and board art which is really what I'd want from it. It shows bubble bubble on the cover and that was enough for me to buy it.

Random Stranger posted:Armored Core has its fans, but I've never gotten into them for whatever reason. So let's throw that out there: if I was to play one Armored Core game, which one is worth trying? I've played just about every single one since armored core 2. For answer is my favorite, a modern control style and lots of giant gently caress off bosses. One mission is literally chasing after a giant mech train and then blowing it up from the inside.

Cool that's great. I know it wasn't gonna be anything more in depth than a quick overview but it's pretty much the entire nes library right? Just a great coffee table book on nes games where you can flip it open and maybe find an interesting game is all I wanted.

So yeah, I just got the Artcade art book in the mail today. Someone had asked me about this book. I will say if you love the 80s/early 90s art styles, you will love this book. Here's a few choice images.     It doesn't seem to have anything but bezel art, so just know what you're getting into if you want this book. This has art from games from 1980s all the way up to the Punisher and Alien Vs Predator in the early 1990s. Apparently this was done by some guy who managed to buy a private collection of original arcade artwork, by a hollywood prop company that was going to go out of business. He saved it all, and also spent another 2000 hours restoring the art. Ineffiable fucked around with this message at 23:02 on Oct 4, 2016 |

Blackchamber posted:For sure. I also would like a book thats as long as an arcade bezel and wouldn't fit on a bookshelf. Yeah, you can't make everyone happy. It's a good compromise. I'd rather this exist as it is now, than for it not to exist at all. I mean if you shrink it down to one page, then either you have a huge book, or the art is kind of smaller. It's pretty gorgeous at this size.

Random Stranger posted:The binding could have been made to sit flat as well. I believe those kind of bindings tend to make it more expensive and also make the book larger. I've only seen it in certain photo books and they have noticeably less pages than a book of similar size. Considering the normal msrp of this book, it's fine for what we get.

My first final fantasy is 10 (and also my first ps2 title. The graphics blew me away) and I probably like it the most. So yeah might be easy to be biased when its your first. I did play 7, 8 and 9 next and I liked 8 the least.

When you grow up though, you realize it's kind of meaningless, and there's better things to do with your time.

What are the pros/cons of the AVS and the analogue nt? And if I have a framemeister, is it just better to go get the HDMI upgrade for the NES (pricewise) instead of a hdmi enabled clone system?

You could just buy a wii right now and use the 8bitdo controller right now. Why wait for anything. Also likely just as expensive as the nes classic but has more games. The main reason I was asking about nes consoles out there because I already have a library of 100 physical nes games.

Monitor Burn posted:Yeah they are about the same difficulty, just more desoldering work for the HDMI kit. The real issue with the HDMI mod is unless you already have a kit, there's a 2-3 month wait time to buy one. They are just finishing up testing a batch that was pre-ordered back between June and September, and they look like they be delivered in the next couple weeks or so. The NESRGB can be ordered from a US store and will ship to your door in less than a week: http://etim.net.au/shop/shop.php?crn=207&rn=536&action=show_detail Yeah and I have no skills so I would rather just pay you for it and be done with it. Snes and n64 already have rgb mods so it's just my nes that's left out.

TheRedEye posted:Actually I'm going back to the film buff analogy, at least for me. Well kind of. But original video games are like actual film strips, close to the most pure format you can get it in. Buying bluray is getting closer to the original resolution. Buying framemeister or hdmi nes is getting closer to the best we can see that game in. Emulators are more like up scaling and hdr+ on tvs (hdr+ is literally the TV trying to do fake hdr on stuff that isn't, essentially a filter) Now there's some emulators that do try to go as original as possible when emulating but anyone arguing about emulators isn't gonna bring up the super spergy bsnes, they likely mean the same zsnes they've had for a decade. But either way you can still enjoy the format and the content of the game itself but doing it the authentic way while can be more expensive, feels more real and pure in the end.

d0s posted:they're stopping production on them and they're like the only way to play old systems properly on a HDTV. personally I don't think that ability is worth the $400whatever it normally goes for let alone $700 but people like it For some people who already have a solid crt it's not worth the investment. But I have a small apartment and I'll be damned if I have anything other than my 60 inch TV so it's nice having the framemeister as it's a good future proofing. We'll have TV sets up to 4k and hdmi for a good long time. 1080p scales up to 4k beautifully. Very low input lag compared to most scalers too.

plasticbugs posted:Be careful what 4k TV you invest in, because mine HATES my Framemeister at both 720 and 1080 and rounds off all the pixels. It also does this with the NES Classic Edition. It's a 65" LG OLED. Here's what you don't want: That seems really weird. It should just take that 1080p content and multiply it by four pixels. You've tried different picture modes even?

plasticbugs posted:I've tried every single available setting in both the regular menu and the 'advanced' menu. The only way to make it marginally better is to pass the Framemeister output through a DVDO iScan Micro 4k which passes a 4k signal to the TV and prevents the TV from attempting to scale/interpolate. I would bet that the LG isn't the only 4k TV that exhibits this unwanted scaling behavior. Don't xboxes have hdmi pass through too? I could imagine buying a used Xbox Scorpio so it could do hdmi pass through with 4k. But sounds like you might have a firmware update in the future.

Just for trying to get a framemeister to play nice with 4k tvs. Or something that might take 1080p and post it as 4k? Im sure something will be made in the future 4k is only just starting to be a thing after all.

Elliotw2 posted:There's a lot of HDMI to 4k upscalers already, but you're gonna have to look for one that doesn't do the pixel rounding and doesn't introduce input delay yourself. I doubt there's anyone who's looked really closely at these yet. Yeah the real thing is if it doesn't do pixel rounding and also doesn't introduce input delay. But this is fine as long as you get a good TV. Worse case I guess, we can buy low latency oled monitors one day for cheap. I wouldn't mind putting down $100 bucks for one in the future.
