what games are on this thing?

It's a nice concept. I've had every NES rom on every computer I've had since the Nesticle days in the 90's

this would be a great gift to a "normie" and surely is quicker and easier to pull up games assuming it has good ones

and out of the massive NES library there's honestly maybe 100 good games, only about 40 great games

This thing is basically the "Cheese and Sausage Gift Set" of video games.
The kind of gift you give people when you can't think of a real present.
Anyone you gift it to has probably already played every single game on it, but they'll still enjoy it if you give them one.

As opposed to giving someone a AAA $60 game, they probably already have it.

I have every NES, Turbo Grafx, Genesis, SNES game on my computer and have for quite some time

I would be super stoked to get one of these for christmas if the controller was legit and didn't have input lag. I'm feeling warm inside imagining middle aged me and my brother playing SMB 3 on the TV this Christmas Eve getting into drunk fistfights over the mushroom houses/bonus games
>>
>>57535398
I have one in home, i just felt like it because i want to show my appreciation after decades of emulating those games in my pc lol, also i never play nes games with its original controller ( all this time use keyboard or xbox ctrlr) so im curious.

Got one, currently working on emulating 3rd party ROMs so I can charge more than 30 games on it.

It's 100 times more expensive to buy the original with all the games and cables required.

It costs about $5 to buy cable extentions because the cables are the same as Wii cables.

Should be possible to solder in an SD card reader. Tried that yet?

It's running Linux so it should be doable.

You could just download a "ALL 761 NES GAMES TORRENT" and it would even come with an emulator ready to use.

The most it would take up is 50mb.
>>
>>57535738
It will, I just need a couple of things ready.
Already got all the NES games, even a 2gb memory can hold all the collection.

>>
>>57535747

what you guys hating on this device don't understand:

you need a computer to play those free roms

I'm not gonna give my dad a dvd for christmas "here's 10,000 NES ROMS including Ku Klux Klan Mario and Russian Bootleg 8 bit Mortal Kombat. Just put this onto your computer. When it pops up, go to C:\Program Files\ and create a new folder called NES. Install the executeble here, it's called FCEUX. Next, create a folder called ROMS in that NES folder and drag all the ROM files into it. Now go back to the NES folder and right click FCEUX, create a shortcut. Drag that shortcut onto your desktop next to your Internet Explorer and Norton Antivirus icons. Double click that shortcut. Now go to settings and configure your input. Oh, you don't have an xbox controller or a ps4 controller because you're my dad? Okay, you can just use the keyboard, that will work great. After you configure your input just go to "load rom" and scroll down to find Super Mario Bros and open it. Merry Christmas"
>>
>>57535801
Why are you gifting your dad video games?
He can afford his own if he still enjoys them.

Buy him something else.
Better yet, don't buy him anything. Christmas as a holiday where gifts are not only expected, but required of you is fucking shameful.
>>
>>57535816
my dad is actually dead I'm trying to explain to youngsters on /g/ why this is actually a great product even though you guys don't need it/want it

Christmas is about giving, this is quite obviously a christmas present for middle aged men who played NES

I'm a middle aged man who played NES and I don't know any "normie" my age who wouldn't love this thing

and yes I have the emulators and roms already
>>
>>57535847
So not only are you being insincere in your arguments, you can't even come up with a realistic situation in which gifting someone a $60 toy NES that can play games that have been available for free for almost 30 years is a great idea?

Just fuck off.
>>
>>57535861

What about the hardware? You guys keep bringing up "but i know how to download the ROMS for free"

download onto what?

a fucking computer. Yes, everyone has a computer including normies, but not everyone has an XBOX controller to plug into it.

And not everyone is computer savvy enough to use an emulator without it being a headache for them.

My sister for instance hated SNES because there were "too many buttons".

I, for instance, hate new video games but i fucking love classic NES, SNES, Genesis games because it's what I played as a kid.

I actually bought a PS4 controller just so I could use it to play classic games on my emulator.

You fuck off, you're too stupid to realize how great of a product/gift this thing is and you're too autistic to realize that the reason they are all sold out is not because "everybody else is wrong"
>>
>>57535887
No, it's because Nintendo fans are retarded sheep of Applefag proportions, who will buy literally anything that Nintendo shit out and claim it's the best thing ever.

>>57535898

You're a fag. Any real "nintendofag" already has an NES obviously. I don't think you were alive in the NES heyday so I can't expect you to understand how big it was and who is buying these things. I don't even know what the current NES system is, haven't played a Nintendo system since the Gamecube (into the trash Sunshine isn't Mario) and the last console I owned was a PS2 and I rationalized that purchase because it was a DVD player.

I'm no fanboy of any video game company but 90 percent of the people in my generation owned a NES or their friend did. Yeah, we're "retarded sheeple" because we quit playing Legend of Zelda and threw out the dusty NES. Nothing wrong with spending 60 dollars to relive great memories you bitter little asshole
>>
>>57535398
It's good for kids.
That's why people are buying it.

>bbbut emulation, someshit with a desktop UI or some bullshit retroarch shit, etc, etc
My 3y/o niece will fuck that shit quicktime then be crying about how the game isn't working, like every fucking 5 minutes.
Fuck that.

>buy a real NES
Expensive as fuck, unreliable (no top loading NES here in Aus), old carts, old controllers.

NES classic makes sense for a lot of reasons.

Personally though, for my own gameplay, I'll just use emulators - even though I've purchased a NES classic.

Being pretty poor and stingy isn't the same as being adept at the thing you're avoiding.

It's pretty obvious people want it to experience a bit of what it's like to *own* an NES in a modern context. Pretty cute product.
>>
>>57535654
>I would be super stoked to get one of these for christmas if the controller was legit and didn't have input lag

I can just laugh at those who cannot play with a fucking keyboard. No input lag at all, and it's not that complicated too. I played KH2 on PCSX2 with the keyboard, after all. In Critical Mode.

Really, it's not that hard to use a keyboard.
>>
>>57535902

computer illiterate > completely oblivious

and I'm not computer illiterate. Back when I was a kid only rich families (like mine admittedly) owned computers. Lots of the "computer illiterate" people you talk about simply grew up in a different time. We didn't get free laptops in high school.

Also, quit acting like you're smart because you can use a computer they are literally easy to use

I am not a virgin robot I'm a married man with 2 kids and a full time job. I work with a lot of "computer illiterate" people who are way more successful than 90 percent of this board will ever be, even if you do use Linux with a graphical user interface and know how to use google to solve computer problems

Playing NES with a keyboard is way worse than using a controller. Maybe for young kids, but if you grew up playing NES on a controller you developed skills and muscle memory with it and they don't translate to the keyboard at all

color me impressed somebody downloaded a Rockman ROM

you don't "own" shit you dumbass you already said you beat it on a keyboard so I know you literally downloaded the rom and plugged it it into your fuckin emulator

It's a toy for middle aged men and women and that's who is excited about it. I am a middle aged man, I run linux, I have emulators (and have since the 90's Nesticle and Genecyst when they ran on DOS)

this is a great product for 60 bucks, it's not surprising at all to me that it is sold out everywhere. I GET IT. I'm the demographic

for the 50th time this thread, the ROMS are free but the computer isn't

this thing cost 60 dollars that's what you're paying for is the controller and the hardware man. Great product, stay mad about it

Literally, any laptop with a sound card and 100mhz and at least 4mb of RAM can play NES SNES Gameboy library of ROMS. This entire thread is retarded.

Anyone who wants to play Nintendo games from NES to N64 can do so on the computer they already own with no additional costs. If you want a controller, a corded gamepad can be found cheaply.

This product is not for any of us. It's for people with no technical capacity, the people who buy it will have a hard enough time trying to figure out what aspect ratio to choose when the device first starts, IF they can figure out where to plug in that HDMI port in the back AND then troubleshoot why is it not working, oh that's right it needs USB power, which I don't know if it is included with a plug in in case they don't have the port on their TV. And even with all that they can't figure out how to change the input on the TV to HDMI1 they will have to cal their son because "he knows how to do these things".

let's be real playing Nintendo games on a tiny laptop screen is not comparable to playing them on the TV in the family room on Christmas day. That's not what the Nintendo experience is

that being said, as I've stated numerous times in this thread, I do have emulators and enjoy playing games on them. Have since the 90's

I have every NES, SNES, Master System/Game Gear, Turbo Grafx, GB, GBA rom on the computer I'm typing on right now

and I can still admit that the NES Mini is a great product

or you can get a real nes along with a nes flash cart with all the roms on it

there, original hardware, every game, still plug and play

the only difference is that the nes mini is properly legitimate, whereas emulators and flash carts are only legit if you own the original carts and dumped them yourself

You're stupid if you think playing NES on a laptop screen is the same experience as playing it on a TV with a NES controller

You are arguing with somebody who actually has all the emulators and has had all the emulators since the 1990's when you were a baby. All your "but the emulators and ROMS are free I have them on my laptop" doesn't faze me, I literally have the same shit as you, you can't lord over me and pretend you're "in the know" here

I also was a kid who got a NES for Christmas in the 80's and I guarantee you, you'll have to take my word for it, it is SO MUCH BETTER to play on the floor in front of the TV screen than on a fucking laptop of all places

as I've stated, this product isn't for most of /g/, it's for your parents, uncles and aunts

it is not a serious gaming console for hardcore /g/amers like yourself. Now get to sleep, you want to be well rested for high school tomorrow.

Because the product isn't designed for hardcore gamers that own the originals or are into games enough to know how to emulate easily.
It's designed for normies who vaguely remember the originals or played a couple of virtual console games on the Wii.

While you are entirely correct that an rPi is a much better solution technically, most people just aren't going to bother with something that requires some effort to do when they can pick something up off the shelf instead.

for real though, it's missing a lot of the great Capcom titles. To me Megaman III is the best iof the NES Megamen games.

All you guys seem to be missing a crucial point - NES emulation is illegal, and while that might not bother you it bothers the shit out of most normies I know. Not even really because they think they'll get caught, but because they're worried about that 'darker' side of the internet and they don't want to get viruses and shit.
The NES Mini is great because it's official, legal and guaranteed to work with no problems and practically no setup. If you can't understand the appeal of that then you are so removed from reality I pity you. Maybe try going outside and being human for a bit, remind yourself what that's like?

Steer me in the right direction to fix input lag. You can't fix my opinions on MMIII those are set in stone

I played all the games on the consoles first and the controller I'm using now (wired ps4 controller) is better than the one it replaced (xbox 360 controller atrocious d-pad) and there is a subtle but noticeable input lag compared to playing games on the actual consoles

Mine never did either. They bought the NES second hand (in 97-98 or so) and played it a lot before they gave the NES and SMB2 to my brother for his birthday. Then one day we caught my mom secretly playing SMB3 and only then did we get to play it. Guess she wanted to save it for another birthday or something. She never really played vidya *with* us. Guess they're too chickenshit, knowing that kids will absolutely destroy adults in games.

How many times do you retarded manlets have to piss away $60 before you realise a lot of "nothings" add up and it's these small, needless purchases that are keeping you in perpetual poverty?
>>
>>57541333

I didn't buy one actually, but I think it would be a great Christmas present for my brother. Too bad they are sold out everywhere, I guess I'll get him a decent bottle of booze instead

is that a better way to spend 60 dollars?
>>
Because it's an accurate emulator with legal roms and it includes a controller that's similar to the original. I bet none of you retards have actually used an accurate NES emulator.

>>
>>57541510

>More like rpi or rpi clone

just labor and asspain of loading it up with ROM's plus controller cost makes this more expensive

nothing against raspberry pi's they're cute and all, but nowhere near as cute as the mini nintendo

it's the difference between a hobby project and a complete product basically.

I made the mistake of showing off my emulators to my 10 year old nephew, now everytime I see him he's like, "can i play sonic the hedgehog on your computer" and I don't trust his faggot ass

does Sega make one of these things so I can get him to fuck off?

>writing a disk image to an sd card is too hard

I just can't justify spending more on a less capable device. I mean it has an allwinner SoC but even if somebody manages to run normal linux on it the lack of ports is going to be a problem so I would just buy an SBC since even the first gen BPI that I bought for practically nothing is much more capable than this $60 thing. A cute case isn't enough of a justification for being able to play only 30 titles imo.

I agree that it is suitable for kids and people who wouldn't be able to figure out how to open the side panel of a PC if their lives depended on it, though.

Why not just buy a Raspberry Pi and two USB NES controllers? You could have a better experience for $40
>>
for all the people shilling for Raspberry Pi's in here

would little brothers, aunts, uncles, grandpas know how to turn it on and get to Super Mario Brothers? How hard would it be to make it so you select the ROM with the controller, or would you need a keyboard?

this is a real question not a gotcha, I'm not familiar with these things but I'm assuming it's not gonna be as user friendly as Nintendo's toy
>>
>>57541926
Extremely easy. You literally push a button to turn it on. The linux kernel treats usb controllers as an input device so you can navigate the rom selection with the controller.

Will you plz give me a refund if I don't like this movie. No? Assume I copied it? Okay.

Get real.

And the first president of nintendo didn't care about the downloading by the by, he said so. Only the music industry head-hunts because it takes so long to figure out video game manipulation, and movies make the most money in the theature, during which all bootlegs are mass b&'d until they're satisfied. I honestly expected jewtube to go under because of the music issue.
>>57537118
People have been doing that at flea markets before the internet even existed. Don't get in a turf war. And actually, they even sold their own consoles much like that nintendo one, with the games preloaded, like over a decade ago, all over. Nintendo is so fucking late. It's because they never cared.

>>57542112

don't make assumptions, I have been emulating these games since the 90's, using Nesticle which I'm pretty sure was the first NES emulator for PC.

I'm asking because I'm a 35 year old married man and father of 2 who is more concerned about what I'm getting my family and friends for Christmas.

Look, I know puberty is a tough time and the hormones make you angry and confused, maybe you should talk to your high school counselor about it instead of acting like a whiny bitch on the internet.

The hardware is already weak as fuck, I'd rather just run straight linux and not android.

Also, none of those android or raspi boxes can play my 10-bit anime without setting up some re-encoding scheme on another computer and I'd rather not have to do all that shit again.
Right now I watch my anime on a c2d tower I found for $10 at a swapmeet.

Not these days, i often beat children at children's game with my enhanced reflexes only possessed by someone who should have stopped long ago.

That's the truly amazing part of the story. Nintendo could have made absolute fortunes selling the same 30 games on Apple App Store and Google Play Store even if they sold them at 3.99 a piece, it would have required less effort than this device, they could have even come up with a bluetooth controller for smartphones which would have allowed for "muh nostalgia".

Perfect example of why you're not supposed to give legal advice if you're not a lawyer. At least preface with "INAL but..." (I'm Not a Lawyer but...)

A cartridge, the physical instrument is your property and you own it. However, the software present on the ROM is not your property. You are provided a license of copyright to use the software. You cannot use someone else's ROM dump as that is THEIR license of copyright.

You're conflating the DMCA law that protects consumers against digital degradation by allowing them to rip their OWN copy (and not distribute it) with downloading ANY copy and using it.

Here's what's actually happening: the other ripper of the original dump is violating the license of copyright. The website that distributes it is violating DMCA. And you are simply downloading software without a license.

Hope that cleared it up and this fucking meme can die already.

Hey /g/, I was looking forward to this thing til I heard about the god awful cable lengths.

Recently remembered I have a Pi 3 model B sitting in my closet, and realized using that I could run NES, SNES, and GBA with a decent cord length.

I was just wondering if you guys have any recommendations for controllers.
I got an email today with a link to this: https://thepihut.com/products/raspberry-pi-compatible-usb-gamepad-controller-snes-style
And it looks alright, only $6, has a decent cord length, and I know it'll work with my Pi. I was wondering if one of you guys could vouch for its quality or, alternatively, show me one you know is good. Moreover, I'm interested to know if the Pi's power output and the emulators themselves are able to do two player with two controllers.
Since I'm only gonna be emulating SNES, NES and GBA, an SNES controller layout is all I need.

For what it's worth, I have a Wii U Pro controller and a DS3, but I wasn't sure how those would work out what with drivers and power consumption.

Oh and is RetroPi the best option in terms of software? I haven't really looked into it much yet but that one seems to show up the most.
>>
>>57544914
Buy a quality bluetooth controller and a bluetooth adapter.
I think a PS4 controller will work flawlessly.
>>
>>57544930
>Buy a quality bluetooth controller and a bluetooth adapter
DS3 is bluetooth and I believe I have an adapter lying around somewhere, so I could just use that.
Does RetroPi have native Bluetooth controller support/drivers?
