That price tag. Good Lord.
“I want to play retro games.”
“Well, you could go grab an old NUC at a used computer shop for $100, or you could give this company $500 for basically the same thing.”
“Shut up and take my money!”
I never understood that. Aside from a few controllers I haven't paid a dime to play retro games. Everything is free. Emulators and roms.
What's worse is, from what I gather, few to none of them work excellent right out of the box, even if you spend all that money.
I managed to get the emulator (stella I think) on the physically Wii hardware but the controllers don't work right. I have NES, Sega, and atari controllers with a USB connector on the end. That's all you need. Just use the emulators on the PC and be done with it.
Usually I get a itch to play a couple of Atari games, I play it, and then I don't bother again for several months.
