Should probably get a raspberry pi, I'm sure I could figure it out if I was patient enough. Does that do the kodi things like streaming tv/films as well? I had a Pi that was set up to use XBMC, pre-Kodi. I used it to watch ripped films rather than stream them. It was quite slow and laggy so I sold it and went with an Apple TV instead to stream the stuff that I had on my Mac. There are newer versions of the Pi that probably work better now and would be fine for emulators. You can buy these things with the right software pre-installed these days.

I'd be tempted to get one of these. Apparently Nintendo have learnt the lessons from the NES Classic so hopefully they'll manufactured more then about 10 of them! mario rpg is an absolute classic, then final fantasy 3 as well, two outstanding games s a better launch lineup than the switch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume these things are aimed at people who wouldn't know how to get hold of one, or the games themselves. Plus, they admittedly do look rather cute, and you can be sure some folk will want them for decoration. Also, I'm told that some folk have these things called 'morals' that make them unwilling to play pirated software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
54_and_counting Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Got one for the boy today, he's 13 so knows about the snes and the games but never played them (the good ones anyway), so far he's getting torn into zelda: a link to the past, when i can get him off it im playing ff3, played SF2 turbo few times, still remember the moves and how rock hard they were to do with a control pad instead of a joystick lol Definitely worth the purchase for old time memories, the games on it are actually damn good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernLights Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Ordered one from ShopTo last night and it arrived this evening. Got it set up and impressed with it. It has a good selection of games I played and enjoyed on my SNES as a kid - Super Metroid, Starwing, Mario Kart, DKC and a few I'd never played before.

We Are Pars Fans! Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Got this for Xmas, love it. MARIO Kart is so good, takes me back to my childhood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutz_the_Squirrel Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 DKC is still up there in my top 5 favourite all time games. I play it regularly online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Shaker Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Got one of these a few months ago and spent most of the time since tearing Mario Kart a new one. Spent the entire last weekend playing TLOZ;ALTTP, and it's just the nuts. I remember having both first time round and to this day I've no idea how I found the time to pick up any Standards Grades. Starfox still has the same flaws as before - no save point, looks ropey as f**k - but the hits - Street Fighter II, SMW - are still awesome. It would be perfect if they'd stuck Pilotwings and Sim City on it as well. Then I'd never leave the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted January 9, 2018 Author Share Posted January 9, 2018 You can get versions of this on ebay with 200-300 games pre installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still got the original and it took me forever to get that level done. Since then found out If you jump over the cart at the beginning there's a warp barrel to end.

Boostin' Kev Posted February 14, 2018 Author Share Posted February 14, 2018 Has anybody modded one of these themselves? I've used emulators and roms before so have a bit of an idea about it. There's supposed to be an app you can transfer onto via Windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Finally got round to getting one of these. Absolutely belting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLANCY2KTID Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Despite still having an original snes and about 18 carts I decided to buy one of these last night as it's still a lot cheaper than buying the games I wanted. Should get delivered tomorrow. Tesco selling factory reconditioned ones for £59.99 with a years warranty just now. Anyone want to buy an original snes?

Tri-TON Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Picked one of these up the other day, having an absolute blast. Anyone modded theirs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
