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?

The lack of Super Mario All Stars is a disappointment.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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