Tarm: Bought. I can't get my second hand NES working right so hell with it. I can't get it working after some more replacement parts I now have a backup for some of the essential games.
snowkatt: how the hell did you buy it ? its not even out yet ;p

What did you try to do with your real NES? Replace the pin connector? I wouldn't recommend that as you can usually always get an original pin connector working unless utterly destroyed.

Tarm: Preorder. That's why I said backup. I have until 11th (?) November to get my NES working. If I do get my NES working (Got new parts the other day I haven't installed yet.) I still will have a small portable one for some fun when not at home. :)

Tarm: Bought a used NES they swore had a replaced pin connector and was working. Didn't work even after I've cleaned it. Even had a friend with a working NES try my games and they worked alright. So now I've bought a new pin connector that I'll try it with. Tarm

pimpmonkey2382.313: Ouch, yeah those connector replacements are usually MUCH lower quality than even a dirty original one. pimpmonkey2382.313

The best advice I could give is try to find an original, nintendo made connector somehow. Those 3rd party ones are horrible. :/ Then do the boiling trick to clean the official nintendo one about every six months and you should be good to go.

Tarm: The boiling trick is new to me so thanks for the tip if this doesn't work. Though I have some hope, emphasize on some because I also just got a new TV and my old one was a shop copy and it's had some quirks like its Guide function for TV channels not working. It do have one of the best colours and lightning I've seen though. Anyway. :P

pimpmonkey2382.313: You're welcome. :) I'm mostly playing on clone systems anymore, they typically have the same cartridge connectors as a top loader, so it's MUCH less frustrating than the toasters. :P Though I have some hope, emphasize on some because I also just got a new TV and my old one was a shop copy and it's had some quirks like its Guide function for TV channels not working.

Original or not at all is my thinking. This new mini NES I see as a special case. Wouldn't detract too much from the original feeling I think. :)

Tarm: Ah. Me I'm just trying to finally play it. Been a PC player since the C64 and is now trying to get enjoyment from something I only played at friends houses when growing up.

pimpmonkey2382.313: Eh would be about the same either way. Other than you can use whatever real carts you have. :P And compatibility problems can be fixed via mods. :P Original or not at all is my thinking. This new mini NES I see as a special case.

Tarm: I wish Retron 5 would be available from Swedish online and RL shops. That with original controllers would be an acceptable substitute. Me being a nostalgic retro geek though makes me try for a NES. Tarm

pimpmonkey2382.313: Oh man, don't go with a retron 5. I don't have experience with them but I've heard worse about those emulation machines than I have clone consoles like the retro duo, fc-twin or the retro trio.
