pimpmonkey2382.313: You're probably better off with a wiiU, or some sort of 3/2DS, at least there's more of a possibility of expanding your game library than with this thing.
avatar
snowkatt: maybe but a wii U is still 309 euro here
and i dont think the walking dead is worth that

this is barely the price of a new game

i have a wii but even then buying all these games ( and there are quite a few i want ) is still something to the tune of 100 euro
A used 2DS should be really cheap, and you can play NES on there.

Go for it if it's what you want. I just wouldn't want to be locked into a certain bit of games.

Turn Based Strategy.

Yep just what I figured, a plug and play for casuals. Everybody else might as well hunt down an actual system if they are that interested. The console is a deal considering the price of some of the games on the 2nd hand market, but come on, only 30 games... I at lest hope that the emulation is good, they really should of made it exactly like a dedicated virtual console machine, but for NES only. I could of seen that selling well, on the otherhand this... nope.

Even with one of those good quality, 15 dollar NES only clones you could feasibly get a better selection than this.

It may, though I don't see them letting you use SD card out of the box without installing one to the traces. Too much a chance for piracy and thus nintendo out of money. Though if it DOES have the traces, it will probably be done by fans anyway.

Nope, not the ones at least with built in games that I have worked with. This actually has a better selection by far. Not to mention that those units are Illegal as hell.

I cannot even advocate the cart based clone hardware in that I have seen the failure rate on a lot of those. It's not pretty.

Ey, you've got horrible taste Tiny!! >:P ;) At least you might like Arcanum if you haven't played it already. Really good game plus it lets you switch between real-time and turn-based whenever you want.

Nope they haven't been illegal since 2005. Now they're just as legal as a real NES. And it also depends on the clones you get, usually anything by retrobit is really good if you're not absolutely rough with the system.
