So what does this thing do that an emulator doesn't do? Besides cost an exorbitant amount of money.

the only people crying are the fags who want one but can't get a pre-order in

>>387736689
literally nothing, but you know that, and it's not going to stop you making a hundred threads about it
yes, it's just an emulator in a nice case
yes, nintendo are jews
yes, normalfags are retarded
none of this is new

Runs legit Star Fox 2 (not an incomplete rom rip)
Runs games native 720p not upscaled
No input lag
Works on modern TVs without having to mess with stupid bullshit.

Hardly justifies the exorbitant price tbqhfamalama.
But yes, this is a good argument.

Dont kid yourself, star fox 2 will be ripped within weeks of that shit coming out, if it even is a new rom and not the one thats been floating arouns for ages
>no input lag
You dont know that. The nes classic had some.

No, its strictly for normies and collector autists. Theres no Nintendo magic that suddenly makes their "official" emulators better than what we already have. I mean shit, isnt higan near literal perfection at this point?
Cant wait to play the completed SF2 on my PC with non-shit CRT filters once the ROM gets thrown up online though
>>
>>387738791
You would pay $90 for something thats inferior to a product that is already free and readily available? Its exorbitant compared to the competition
>>
>>387736689
unlike the switch, this thing actually has games.
>>
>>387739007
One game.
>>
>>387736689
>Besides cost an exorbitant amount of money.
What? $80 is a lot but you make it sound like they're charging hundreds for it. If you bought all the games off the VC, it would be around $170 or more.
>>
>>387738936
yes i would, because i would be paying for legal ownership of a bunch of good games and an unrleeased (almost) never seen before game.

like you and everyone else here in this board, we have used emulation in one way or another, if a company gives me a effective way to pay for their games that i have stealed since forever, that i will fucking take it.
>>
>>387738791
$89 for a $10 emulator is exorbitant. Manufacture probably costs them $5 tops.

It's exorbitant.

>if a company gives me a effective way to pay for their games that i have stealed since forever, that i will fucking take it.

but why?
>>
>>387739263
Just don't buy if you don't feel the price is appropriate and shove that money up your ass for all I care
>>
>>387739263
emulators are free
>>
>>387739205
$80 is literally infinite more money than $0

>two controls
>Casing
>CPU, Memory and motherboard.
>Custom emulator and frontend programming.

>5$ manufacture cost.

really? are you THAT desperate for nintendo to fall that you cant even do simple mathemathics?

>>387739439
today went to a flea market, to se eif i could get my hands on a retro console or games, you know thaty here in mexico, not only the games will eventually become overpriced, but also inexistent?

a company is offering 20 of its best games, games that i will NEVER be able to obtain on its physical form legally , PLUS 1 never seen before game, for almost the double of a regular game at the time(plus the possibility for modding and making this console into a personal emubox), and you call THAT stupid, expensive or unnecesary?
>>
>>387739545
Right. One would think these things would be a nice little touch you'd have on your living room or room, but then they do the limited run even though there's a wide demand for it, and its production is trivial for any competent multi-million company.
So, like any wise marketing department would suggest, they use an exagerated MSRP to get easy money.

I'm mad because of this. But hey, emulators are free and work, so let them do their shit.
>>
>>387737962
>justifies
The only justification it needs is people willing to pay the price, and people see the worth on just having it as a collector or nostalgia thing rather than its actual uses.
The rest who doesn't care about that should just stick to emulators as always.
>>
>>387739913
yes because you can get it for free. you are just autistic and want some dumb pretend license that says you have it legally. Do you really think any of your money is going to the fucking kirbys dream course devs?
>>
>>387738359
It's definitely a new ROM. Dylan Cuthbert mentioned a lot of things about the work they did that wouldn't make sense for someone bullshitting (particularly about QAing a game that had no plans to be released).
>>
>>387736689

Not a bad line up of games, but they could have done better and added more...

I would totally get it if it had SimCity and Secret of Evermore.
>>
>>387736689
>only DKC1 and MMX1
y tho
>>
>>387739913
It cost $40 dollars (adjusted to inflation etc.) to produce a GBC back in the day. You'd agree making the chips and screen back then would've been far more costly, yet you argue some quick and dirty chip encased in fucking PLASTIC is more costly than $10?

Eat shit.
>>
>>387740642

Just the tip.
>>
Nothing and the emulation is going to be super shitty if it's the same quality as the SNES classic. RetroArch with one of the bSNES cores is a way better experience.

>>387737826
>no input lag

Fucking bullshit. It's emulation, it will have input lag. That's just the nature of the beast. It might not be much, but there's inherent lag to emulation. The NES classic had it and unless they're moving to an FPGA for the SNES Classic(spoiler alert; they aren't) it's going to have it as well.

Seems fair.

It is the only legal way to own Starfox 2. Collectors are big on ownership.
