Gamecube or Dreamcast

if i could load my own isos and translated versions of games that thing would be a must buy for me

>>381917228
mini PC
real answer: n64 because it's tricky to emulate

>>381917228
Mini gamecube

Sega Saturn assuming it had the entire library, including every Japanese game, including fan translations where they exist, with a few new official translations/fixes.

Mini Gameboy Micro

Dreamcast Mini.

If the game included had DLC then include that too.

I would buy an OG gameboy with a ton of games on it

>>381917228
A whole lot. Probably all major ones.
I guess I'll finally build that small form factor emulation machine I want to build.

Mini dreamcast.
It had some excellent cult hits and emulation for it isnt that great. Having a physical VM again would be better for the minigames. Heck make it so original VMs can still be slotted into the controllers, thatd be rad as fuck for those of us still with them.

An Android TV box and a Bluetooth gamepad.

>>381917228
None because you can get almost every console before the PS3 for $80. If it uses CDs you can even get a mod chip or soft mod it to read burned discs.

>>381917228
Put it towards a controller so I can emulate on my PC, could afford a solid controller or two for that.

These systems don't have memorable games that people remember fondly and there also isn't a nostalgia factor involved.. That's the whole point of the NES and SNES.

Just because they weren't popular enough, that doesn't mean they don't have lots of memorable games. I'll give you the nostalgia thing though.

>>381922061
do you really care so much about the form factor that you'll waste space on storing discs and force the user to swap discs all the time?

to accommodate a normal-size disc drive, it would only need to be slightly bigger. still mini. of course, i have no clue why would want discs at all instead of sd cards. unless you really like load times and whirrrrrr disc noises

>>381921593
This.

They're already re-releasing HD versions of almost all the PS3's major titles for PS4 (thankfully not for full price, though I wouldn't put it past Sony), simply because the PS3 generation ended too abruptly and we STILL don't even have a half-decent library for the PS4.

After the PS4.5 flops (with any luck), they'll immediately release the mini PS4. They've already resorted to re-selling us the last gen's games, they won't hesitate to re-sell us this gen's console several more times.

These reasons and more are why the PS4 will be my last video game console. My next big purchase will be a decent PC. Consoles are losing all the benefits they once had over PC gaming, still denying consumers the features that PCs have had for years, and keep increasing the fees for arbitrarily paid services. If the console video games industry were a tower (rising out of the last video game crash's rubble), it has become so bloated that it would currently be shaped like a lollipop, threatening to come crashing down with the slightest breeze.

>>381921779
Good thing OP is asking what console I would pay $80 for, not anyone else.

Why the fuck would you want a Dreamcast mini when you can buy a real one and burn the games you want to play?

>>381924620
burned discs commonly have shit audio or video because they won't fit on CDs and Dreamcast drives are known to die easily. Alternatives such as SD card mods either have poor compatibility or are expensive.

N64 mini. But not by that much money.

I don't know about $80, assuming we're talking USD here. That's a bit outrageous. Even the Classic NES wasn't priced that high.

But I would like to see a classic GB model with the games entirely built-in, possibly alongside a cartridge slot so you can play any GB games you happen to own. Basically, reproduce a 1:1 grayscale GB configuration, but add in a read-only storage packed with popular GB titles, and backlights of different color varieties. (e.g. There would be different models with different screen colors, like green, amber and red) Since we're basing this on grayscale GB, it wouldn't be compatible with GBC ROMs or cartridges. I'm going for something with a very retro aesthetic here.

As for managing SRAM, include a traditional backup battery so the user can maintain the devices save functionality. GBA and DS carts use Flash-based memory to retain save data. The problem with that is that Flash chips eventually burn out, much like SD cards and USB drives. I don't like having Flash-based storage in dedicated gaming machines like these.

PS1 mini with all the Final Fantasy games

>>381925653
>playing the PS1 Final Fantasy games without fast forward

>>381925487
Novelty christmas gifts for people who only emulate on their computers and might want to play them on their HD TVs. Then there is the nostalgia. The biggest sell is the price. Sometimes it's hard to tell if someone already has a game. But it's easy to tell if someone has hardware or not.

>>381925830
honestly the FF feature is what makes me NOT want to play the Steam versions right now, and I just bought a couple 'cause they were on sale

One that my cellphone can't emulate.

Meaning PS2+, which means the games can be bought on the virtual store anyway.

Pic related will buy anything up thought.

One that either had expandable memory for more games, or could play the old official games.

Sega Saturn is now my most wanted now that you mention it honestly.

I bought one expecting it to be a Dreamcast situation where I pretty much had a run of the library from piracy. Not the case really. And the games are like a minimum of 100 dollars online and with a lot that aren't available elsewhere.

Plus that means official USB Sega Saturn controllers.

Fucking heaven.

You can almost get any console ever made besides PS2 and game cube from a third party, you can build retropies to emulate them and live out your childhood, you can hook your phone up to a tv and controller and emulate away, it's not worth wasting money unless you're a normie or nostalgia fag.

That's why the mini snes worked marvelously.

I'm not sure if it's every version of the saturn, but you can play backups by just swapping out an official disc during a specific time in startup.

the timing is hard to get down, but it works.
