RETIRED - The all inclusive video game thread

Fair enough.

Unlike Monkey_Driven, I actually enjoy the tinkering and collecting aspect of RetroPie.

I've owned two Rasberry Pis and have played around with several emulators over the years. I end up putting all these games on them and then not playing them. The options are just too overwhelming. Not to mention the emulation is usually like 5 percent "off". It's like watching a blockbuster on an iPhone. Yeah, you're watching the movie, but you're kind of missing the point. You know?

And here's the Super Famicom:

Star Fox 2 is such a cool surprise/inclusion.

[Sgt. Crackpot]

The lack of Super Mario All Stars is a disappointment.

Can't cannibalize sales of the NES Classic on the secondary market!

[CopperTom]

There will be "significantly more" units produced, but none after 2017. Thanks Reggie, maybe.

[CopperTom]

That i'll probably be forced to pay a $100+ premium on the secondary market. That's what's wrong.

[bune]

supposed to be a "what wrong with you, Reggie" not you you.

My 7 year old is better than me at Battlefront.

[i got bugs]

Oh sweet they'll probably release like 7 or 8 of them and everyone will be pissed

I think many a 5 year old can beat me at Battlefield One. Time has just passed us by Skitch.

But has he beaten a Chud of Fire and Ice?

RetroPie has really improved over their last few releases. It plays my various bootleg Zelda ROMs with extra dungeons without a hitch.

It doesn't technically support anything post PSX/N64, so I spend most of my tinkering time with PS2 and GameCube emulators and overclocking.

Careful, if you overclock too much you'll blow your knees out.

I remind him daily of his failures

Maybe he can try to beat the one with checkpoints first.

[E.H. Ruddock]

RetroPie reminds me too much of "PewtiePie", so I'll never have one.
