Framemeister or OSSC
But seriously just get a CRT it's infinitely cheaper. Literally grab one from the dump. Just a 13 incher if space is that much of a concern.
>>
>>3912452
It would be way easier and cheaper just to get a CRT than a framemester or a device like that.

>>3912463
True, but that's not the question.

Still using ZSNES when others have surpassed it 100 times over. *facepalm*
If you're going to emulate, at least use SNES9x or Higan/bsnes (maybe with Retroarch since it allows you to do a LOT more!)

Wish I had one. It'd be super nice. The whole appeal of the neo geo is to save space, y'know? So you'd have some excellent authentic gaming without sacricing any walk-room.

Why would you? It's expensive as fucking shit, and can be easily emulated.

Anyone here use s-video connections with their older consoles? Do you find it's actually a substantial improvement over composite?
I'm referring to NTSC gaming, of course. I'm not sure what types of video connections they use in various parts of Europe.

Yes, it is. The quality boost from composite to S-Video is much greater than from S-Video to RGB/YPbPr.
>>
>>3911413
If you have a good s-video cable, that is.
Those combined s-video/composite cables have problems.

Looking for an old strategy game I played as a kid but can't remember what it was called, was on an old computer with a few other games like Lod Runner and Glider. It was kind of like an early version of Civilization.

You'd start off with a city/base used to produce either armies, fighter planes, battleships, fleet carriers, basically things to fight the computer player. You'd then explore out into the map and take over other cities. You didn't expand or work on these "cities", they were just there to produce your units.

If you credit feed in an Arcade game or abuse save states when emulating a game, do you consider yourself to have "beaten" the game?
It seems like a hollow "victory".

I do those things to acclimate myself to the game before I try a real challenge.
>>
>>3910454
In an arcade I don't think anyone would really care, they just want to see that damned ending screen.
When emulating the most agreed-upon victory would be to 1cc a game.
>>
>>3910465
I suppose that's a decent reason.
I honestly prefer to challenge myself to beat most games on only three credits (Maybe four depending on the game) and restart from the beginning each time I run out.
It feels more satisfying to me that way. I get the thrill of seeing the next bit of content and the challenge of trying to improve my skills at the same time.
It takes me a hell of a lot longer to beat a game but I don't mind. It makes it sweeter.
