Is this really still happening?
exactly
Is this really still happening?
You see, here is the problem. You insinuate that someone is angry at selling their collection, then you yourself get angry when someone responds. That is called baiting. Are you trying to insinuate that I can't or that I'm trying to flex? What is E flexing? Is that a thing? I merely stated that I regret nothing and can at any point get the entire collection back if I wanted, which I can. I just spent 50k developing the most realistic driving simulator in the world for private use, so I can assure you, the AES library is not a hurdle. http://www.isrtv.com/motion-simulator/wil-mayaman-tosados-mind-blowing-porsche-motion-rig/
But why do that when I can save all the space. So if you don't want people responding to your obvious bait post, then don't post it and then get angry.
The stick project was just that, a little project. I saw some people were having issues with it and decided to update that thread with a solution. But again, being that so many SNK fans are raving lunatics, even this insults your purists sensibilities so much as to fling insults and get your panties in a bunch. Calm the fuck down.
As for my lame rant about group think, its not lame at all. I was in the video game industry in the 80s and 90s and we ran extensive demographic testing on what kids at the time wanted, why they wanted it. The correlation between peer pressure and group think is real. Its why you have instances like the Call of Duty video being disliked so much even though the majority of the people disliking never watched the entire video. They just snowballed like the rest of the lemmings.
Lastly, any point made about the "millenials" or "people who spend hundreds on a cart" aren't directly aimed at you genius. Its aimed at the people who will do backflips to assure that the value of their collections doesn't take a hit. They will downplay, destroy, talk shit about anything that does anything to hurt that perceived value.
And I'm the elitist fuck for embracing the so called shit NGX. Holy hell lol.
I actually thought the sticks where decent. I modded mine for use on a real neo.
The NGX handheld unit itself is OK. It plays the games well enough. There should have been an option to buy just the handheld for $100 retail.
The NGX docking station truly is garbage. There was so much screen tearing that I couldn't play the games.
And the joysticks are cheap. In pictures they look identical but as soon as you pick one up you'll know the difference right away. They feel frail and they lack polish.
Gamers who want to play neo geo games in a "good enough" state in a cute all-in-one package (especially after jailbreaking the unit to include the full library).
I seriously don't get it. People buying things like NGX or NES Classic to jailbreak them and use them as all around emulators. Why not get a Raspberry Pi and RetroPie? It would be cheaper AND faster. As for the price of NGX, the sticks are going up the most, which is insane, since they're crap.
but I think their classic edition console success proves how viable that market still is.
It's such a shame that most of these efforts feel so half-assed.

To be fair, I'm a europe kid and had a master system and never got into the NES first time round (they were fairly uncommon, at least round me). I've got a famicom mini that I've jailbroken to play NES games in english rather than japanese, and also for the other ones worth consideration that aren't on the list, but I can't speak for all.
I've also got a SNES mini ordered, in the home those become jail broken too. I do have a SNES original and a few carts, but it's PAL so 50hz and a SDSNES is pretty expensive. And here's hoping, the SNES mini will output nicely over HDMI.
But why do all that instead of a Raspberry Pi? I guess you have a point. Because why not?
I guess the point is, if you want unauthorised ROMs then why not just get them on your PC?
I do have a PC connected up to my main tv, but loading romz is a bit of a faff... even with wireless keyboard and mouse. Yeah I could probably get a custom linux rom build and make it easier, but then I'd lose out on the full spectrum of steam and some of stuff I use it for.
I don't give 2 shits about this stupid ngx argument. However that sim setup is too fucking unreal and something I think every car enthusiast has always dreamed about. I'd kill for an afternoon of that. Its better than driving a real porsche. No tires,no wear and tear and no fear of damaging a priceless car. Just amazing.You see, here is the problem.
