Thread 11967016

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

good thread

They need the guys working on misterfpga to finish the core first. Then they can try and bulk order the cheapest fpga that can run it I guess

>>11967016 (OP)
You can find a used N64 on eBay for $60

>>11967060
>Then they can try and bulk order the cheapest fpga that can run it I guess
They already said when it was first announced that it would be using a FPGA that's even more powerful than the one in the mister (Altera Cyclone 10GX vs the mister's Cyclone V SE)

what's the matter? can't afford a bag of nothing?

Have they even shown off any footage of it running anything? That would seem more like the biggest red flag desu.

Anallog bros...
It's over. I guess we will never be able to play N64 games again

>>11967103
Yeah, are they poor or something?

>>11967082
Expansion Pak adds $30 to the price, but also you're not allowed to have an old tv so you'll also need a converter, and this isn't for playing, only for buying

>>11967016 (OP)
They're busy acquiring a time machine so they can go to the year 2567 when N64 emulation has finally been perfected-for PCs-then all they need to do is find a mad scientist in the Carpathian Mountains who can think shrink that PC into an adorable Analogue case. :)

>>11967152
PC emulation is entirely irrelevant in this case.

>>11967082
And how much does it cost to add an Expansion Pak, a HDMI mod (and installation if you aren't skilled in soldering), a 4K upscaler, and four wireless controller adapters?

>>11967118
AFAIK no, which is indeed a red flag. I highly doubt it's a scam though, Analogue would have to be utterly stupid to ruin their brand by screwing their niche consumer base that pays high prices for their designer retro crap. They are definitely planning other systems in the future, if they screw this up nobody will buy those. Though I do see the possibility of this thing being cancelled.

>>11967163
Probably one of those who things these things are just a Pi in a fancy case.

>>11967016 (OP)
weird controller design choice for a n64

>>11967180
That controller is the thing people have been most excited for, it kept getting delayed with the console until they gave up holding it back and just released it. Don't have one myself but I hear it's pretty good for N64 emulation, or using it on a real N64 with an adapter.

>>11967016 (OP)
After enjoying the PSOne classic, I want a PS2 version now.

>>11967204
Even if it would be cost-effective to make a PS2-capaible emulation device like that there is no way Sony would bother after the laughable failure the PSOne Classic was.

>>11967229
How was it a failure? I thought it sold pretty well. And it's easier than fuck to soft-mod it to get it to run a hell of a lot more than the 20 pre-installed games. All you need is a USB stick to self-mod the system with no effort on your aprt at all.

>>11967238
>How was it a failure? I thought it sold pretty well.
What alternate universe are you from? They did just about everything wrong. The emulation was crap, they used PAL versions of games for some reason, the game selection was shit, the controller was not dual shock, the price was too high...

It was slammed in reviews, had it's price slashed repeatedly, and eventually it was literally given away if you bought a PS5 just to get rid of them.

>And it's easier than fuck to soft-mod
That is NOT a positive from Sony or the retailer's perspectives. That's like saying the Dreamacst didn't fail because it was the easiest gen 6 system to get burned games running. Also if your only interest is hacking it, then at the time a Pi would have been considerably cheaper, and more powerful.

Looks like I'll have to once again buy from the Zionist arms dealer (based) instead. Thanks for the 8BitDo controller at least, analbros.

>>11967247
It had Syphon Filter, MGS, and FF7 as well as some other decent games. My only complaint is I wish it had Tomb Raider 2 which really helped to sell the original PS1 and is a part of the whole PS1's mystique, but I guess CD didn't go along with it.

>the price was too high...
I paid $99 for mine new. What's the original retail?

>The emulation was crap
I disagree. It's ran perfectly for all games for me. I like the way it maintains the original looks of the PS1 games while upscaling to 720p. It does an excellent job of giving you a sense of playing the games originally but in a better clarity. That's exactly what I wanted.

>the controller was not dual shock
Didn't make a difference with most games.

>>11967148
I'm still of the belief that a lot of customers (not all, of course) buy these nu-retro console redesigns because they need to have what was originally a children's toy turned into a more expensive luxury version so they don't feel ashamed about showing it off.

>>11967260
Has there been any proof of that one either? We don't even know what that one looks like, just a 10 second video that claims it's running Mario Kart 64 without showing it.

>>11967276
>It had Syphon Filter, MGS, and FF7 as well as some other decent games.
For $100 it sure as hell should have had a lot more 30 year old games, most people hated the selection.

>I paid $99 for mine new. What's the original retail?
It's launch price was $100, you're a fool if you paid that though. It was slashed to $50 pretty quickly, and then $35, and eventually $25.

>I disagree. It's ran perfectly for all games for me.
Then you can't tell good emulation from crap emulation, it was heavily criticized for it's shitty emulation, as well as using PAL versions of games.

>Didn't make a difference with most games.
Except that it makes a big difference in games that support it

>>11967281
Nobody is ashamed to show off their old consoles, that's nonsense.

>>11967284
nothing yet, both of these fucking things are nothingburgers until theyre not. at least modretro doesnt seem like it will abandon its products after production (yet)

>>11967296
>and eventually $25.
No one is selling even used ones for that now. Those who still have never-used ones are still getting full original retail for them. Having a system that's effortless to run a ton of games on has really helped it hold its value.

Isn't this device capable of rendering its 3D content at a higher resolution than the original? So they would be going for cycle-perfect high res graphics. Pretty cool combo, if they manage to pull it off.

>>11967238
I walked into best buy and they had a bunch sitting on 2 pallets for $20. It only sold well when it 1st came out because scalpers thought they could resell them like the Nintendo minis so they bought up a bunch. I bought 3 because I was hoping the soft mod scene was going to pick up and I was going to make 2 emu boxes for gifts. It never really did, they don't have any on board usable storage so no matter what you have to use a usb storage device to hold any non stock games. Stock you can only use the micro usb port with an otg adapter because despite having 2 usb ports in the front they're current limited so even a usb drive doesn't have enough power to run. You have to solder a jumper in or I saw something people using conductive ink to increase the current. The mod doesn't stay active without a usb stick plugged in not that you'd have games to play anyways.

Adding games is a mess too, the program works but it's not user friendly and it's a huge pain in the ass if you ever need to change or remove games. It just never really picked up because no one bought them and there were easier boxes to use for emulators.

>>11967368
The Pocket is probably their most popular product, what exactly are you trying to say?

>>11967391
>Isn't this device capable of rendering its 3D content at a higher resolution than the original?
No, it's just capable of upscaling the N64's output up to 4K and has the option to use CRT filters, it doesn't render the games at any higher resolution than the N64 did.

>>11967281
I would normally agree with you for the most part, including the Analogue Pocket that I think is a waste of money. However, I feel like the appeal for the N64 specifically is that it has a lot of dumb accessories that are too expensive these days, and it'd be better to have them baked into the console and controllers themselves. Sure you could probably get an N64 with cables and a controller for like $100, but an Expansion Pak alone is like $50 on eBay and is required if you want to play ROMhacks. Factor in a Rumble Pak, memory card, an extra controller, and it'd probably be around the same price as the Analogue 3D.
On top of that, it has a controller that is also very unique with the 6 buttons, and a stick that on top of being a fragile piece of shit, has a unique gate and bowl that hasn't been replicated in aftermarket controllers. I made my peace with things like the 8bitdo modkit and controller, but I'd jump ship to the M64 if they actually are autistic enough to clone the joystick. Finally, I'm not spending hundreds of dollars on a scaler to play it on a modern TV. All I am buying is a console and maybe a new controller.

>>11967412
Ah, it's just the output resolution. Seems kinda stupid that they would advertise it, in this way.

>fell-for-it-again-award.jpg

By the time this piece of crap comes out, MrWiseguy's pc porting tools will be finished and every game under the sun will have 4k/144hz versions.

>>11967412
The pocket still doesn't have features they promised 5 years ago

as much as misterfags annoy me, bluntly speaking

>it's emulation either way and only enthusiasts are gonna give a shit
what value does an Analogue 3D even have?

>>11967016 (OP)
It doesn't exist. Analogue can't do N64.

>>11967368
this looks like such shit compared to the tank plastic on the old gameboy

>>11967016 (OP)
Modretro will manage to get theirs out first.

>>11967512
it's gonna be a plug and play solution with the equivalent to a retrotink 4k integrated.
thinking at it like that it really sounds like a good deal. if you aren't smart enough to put together a mister or use regular emulation and really want to use cartridges.

>>11967016 (OP)
i'm fucking over it with analogue. there has to be something seriously WRONG for them to keep pulling this shit. i don't know what pisses me off more - the delays or the potential ass i signed myself up for.

You should have know, they call themselves ANALogue after all

They're clearly stalling for a critical reason.

>>11967281
I have a hyperkin 3 in 1 so I can play genesis/Nintendo and SNES carts on it while still owning my Genesis/NES. I bought it for the SNES (my sister took that, i took the the NES) and to not have to have 2 more consoles on my home setup. I don't get why anyone gives a fuck unless they're trying hard to fit in

>>11967772
>there has to be something seriously WRONG
You are correct.

>>11967807

>>11967827
You should sell the hyperkin and get a SNES.

>>11967807

Holy shit, it's him. Can I get an autograph?

No but they said they're waiting on some final legal checks before full reveal and pre-orders. I think there's a good chance of it happening next month

>>11967435
>but I'd jump ship to the M64 if they actually are autistic enough to clone the joystick
How accurate was the Chromatic? I remember they were supposedly trying to mimic the look of the original LCD, right down to its particular desaturation, but from what I recall the (possibly WIP) results still weren't exactly right.

>Software emu autists have Ares and other ParaLLEl-based software emulators.
>FPGA autists finally have their well-developed N64 core on Mister.
>Normies have hi-res N64 emulation on Switch/2 with save states, all the major 1st party and Rare games, and optional Bluetooth controller repros of the original pad.

>Who is this product for?
It's for YouTubers like picrel to shill and overpaid tech bugmen to onions over, play once then stick in a closet. The normies going apeshit in YouTube comments are not going to buy a $250 once they realise this device does not actually RENDER in 4K like the Switch N64 service does. This is the reason why they haven't shown it running yet. The average normie will not accept an upscaled 240p, regardless of shader options.

Analogue has lost an enormous chunk of the enthusiast crowd that probably would have ponied up for this thing 3-4 years ago before the N64 Mister core. The Pocket filled a "boutique handheld" niche that appeals to Apple fags, but with attractive Chinesium products like the TrimUI Brick now on the market, they're in trouble.

TL;DR - you can't get normies to care about FPGA-based accuracy when the image is still 240p and Nintendo offers their own HD emulation with included games for $50 a year. Most normies sold their carts a long, long time ago.

So many idiots in this thread. Miyamoto's wisdom applies just as much to hardware as it does to software.

Project64 on my very ancient pc works flawlessly btw

This is all peak we need something to the consooomee

>>11968402
The hardware is done, it's clearly the software which can easily be updated causing the delay.

>>11968627
>it's clearly the software which can easily be updated causing the delay

Maybe it would be nice if the software side of things was working when they delivered it. Maybe the software side of things is so incomplete which is why they've never even demonstrated the device at all?

>>11968787
>Maybe it would be nice if the software side of things was working when they delivered it.
They haven't delivered it.

i'm delaying a few anal logs myself.

>>11967435
>Finally, I'm not spending hundreds of dollars on a scaler to play it on a modern TV
I am now remembering that I purchased an Everdrive and a $100+ dollar scaler for my N64 just weeks before the console's audio would shit the bed. I still haven't gotten around to fixing the damn thing, and I don't have anyone I trust to work on it (I'm picky about soldering).

Not entirely convinced it wasn't my fault either. I had recently cleaned the internals of the system before the failure. Only used high percentage alcohol and some duster...but I can't shake the feeling that I killed one (or more) of the capacitors.

>>11967284
I have no doubt that it will release without issue
The firmware will likely be a fork of the one on Mister

>>11967260
I hope the controller has a built in memory pak and rumble

>>11968438
>Project64 on my very ancient pc works flawlessly btw
>This is all peak we need something to the consooomee

Agreed. If it weren't overpriced I'd buy one though because then I'd have a "legit" N64 I could have as a backup.
Btw OoT eventually crashes on Project64 if you leave it for between 12-15 hours.

>>11968342
I'd also imagine that most collectors would rather play on their actual N64 and save their $250 to spend on games.

>>11969136
you shouldn't waste time imagining "most" collectors, instead think about different segments of collectors, like poor and rich collectors.

>>11967406
For real? The USB storage isn't a problem, and with current prices it's a cheap way to add a massive catalog of games.

Not user friendly? Did you use the Project Eris bundle? It was easy. Just label the USB "SONY," format to "Fat32," download everything from the ZIP to the USB, take it from your PC and insert it into the console, and let it run through its setup course. When it's done, re-format the USB to NTFS, put your .bin/.cue games in the right folders, put it back in the system, and you're done.

And the Project Eris lets you adjust the sensitivity of the controller, or even use a different one with analog sticks. Plus the Project Eris will run multiple emulators from multiple systems through the PSOne classic mini.

>>11967016 (OP)
I just can not understand the need for an FPGA N64
Why the fuck would anyone want to actually experience real N64 framerates on anything that's not a real N64? It's like the one console where truly accurate emulation is completely undesirable since the vast majority of N64 games struggle to reach even 30fps at the best of times, with many regularly dipping into single digits.

>>11969351
It does have a charm to playing retro games as they originally were, especially in an age of remakes/remasters. It's also nice to be able to do so with a USB that allows for a sharper picture as the old systems have a "soft" look to them when on modern TVs.

>>11968980
nah, its more than likely mazamar's work, nothing to do with mister which is too tailored around the de-10 to be of much use given the features analogue have mentioned like memory overclocking.

>>11967016 (OP)
Old N64s still work, they don't have a disc drive and they're not pieces of shit like the front-loader NES. I don't see the point. Again, most N64s still work.

So, what exactly is the reason for the delays?

What a pretentious brand
>"Analogue"

>>11969472

>>11969595
weird tangent

>>11968627
so much for 100% compatibility

>>11969307
Both when it was new and right now, if your goal is to hack it to add games a Pi is cheaper, more powerful, and does not need to be hacked to play any emulator you want that can run on it.

There is zero reason to still be using one of these things outside of as an unhacked collector's item to have on a shelf.

faggot ass motherfuckers

>>11969472
It's sad because, in theory, they're attempting to fill a niche that no OEM gives a shit about. I would buy a peripheral or standalone device from Nintendo that natively played my old carts, but they're never make something like that. And if they did, it'd be programmed to release mustard gas if you tried using a flash cart.

>>11967060
It's using FP64 and a Cyclone 10, has nothing to do with MiSTer
The delay is because a serious issue was found when the review units were sent out

>>11969351
Are you under the impression that inaccurate emulation means that it runs at 60FPS?

>>11969401
Add the cost of an Expansion Pak
Add the cost of a HDMI mod
Add the cost of installing the HDMI mod if you don't have advanced soldering skills
Add the cost of a 4K upscaler
Add the cost of four wireless adapters
Add the cost of a controller
Now make it all cost less than this thing

People still going "B-b-but you can buy an N64" have to be intentionally trolling at this point considering how repeatedly they ignore all of these, not to mention either have no response or go "I don't want all that" which is igoring the fact that the fact that this system comes with all that is a selling point

>>11969416
They haven't said, but I bet it's because they keep finding issues with the N64 emulation

>>11969472
Is every modern product a "nu-something" to you?

Also I love the hypocrisy of calling themselves Analogue but they only put HDMI outputs on their devices now

>>11969671
I know what you mean, many retro products seem to not care about using original media. Even most ODEs designed to be installed in the original consoles require REMOVAL of the disk drive, I absolutely hate that. The only system that regularly has hardware ODEs that let you keep it is the GameCube, likely because it would be more work to remove it than to keep it with how easy it is to hack for ISO loading.

>>11969719
>The delay is because a serious issue was found when the review units were sent out
How do you know this?

And what was the issue? That's incredibly vague

>last delay they blamed tariffs
>this delay they're admitting it's not even done and thus their previous excuse was a blatant lie
2 more weeks!

>>11967016 (OP)
It's 20% done at best. All amateur hardware developers all into the trap of the last 1% of development taking 80% of the time. Whether its the hardware devs or the marketing team at fault is unclear, but either way its probably going to be plagued with bugs when they're force to release in order to start turning revenue.

>>11968402
This isn't 1986 anymore. Nor are we talking about a video game. This thread is about a piece of hardware that the makers are waiting for someone else to finish the software for so they can steal it and sell it.

>>11969785
>Add the cost of a HDMI mod

The Chinese Gameboy is $40 and does more than the Analogue Pocket and actually gets shipped to your house when you order it.

>>11969864
>You don't need any of those things.
Called it

Like I said, the Analogue 3D gives you all of that. Trying to act like it's a bog-standard N64 is being disingenuous when trying to make the argument that you can just buy a used N64.

>>11970537
I agree with you if you're making the argument that the only people that should by the Analogue 3D are people that want N64 games to render at a higher resolution than what's possible on any other piece of hardware.
That is the only thing it may do that cannot be achieved elsewhere. However the Analogue 3D doesn't exist so who knows wtf it does.

>>11969382

>>11967281
If that was true you'd think they'd prefer the carts to not be visible when in use.

>>11967281
Or they just want the original console without the need to mod it for either cleaner output or HDMI output

>retro "enthusiast"

kwab

>>11970925
>N64 games to render at a higher resolution than what's possible on any other piece of hardware.
As stated before, it doesn't do that, it just upscales the rendered video. Similar to if you connected a RGB or HDMI modded N64 to a Retrotink.

>>11967856
Why?

>>11969079
>Btw OoT eventually crashes on Project64 if you leave it for between 12-15 hours.
Why would anyone leave it running for 12-15 hours?

>>11967148
>not allowed to have old tv
Says who?

>>11969351
In most cases this is true, though there are some games where some things don't work as expected if the slowdown isn't emulated beat for beat, and a small handful are outright unplayable.

>>11971036
>Similar to if you connected a RGB or HDMI modded N64 to a Retrotink.
That would be enough for me because it's not like getting a properly modded N64 (and the retrotink if you don't have one) is a cheap option. But it's analog, they'll make 10 for their youtube buddies, sit on your pre-order for 2 years and dripfeed new orders to their preferred scalpers before discontinuing it in favor their their next shitbox.

>>11971213
That's why Palmer Luckey should hurry the fuck up and have his company formally show off the M64 so these suckers can cancel their pre-orders and hopefully receive an actual product this year.

>>11971183
you're also not allowed to have speakers, only a "sound bar" :(

:(

>>11970983
Mazamar wrote FP64 which is what Analogue is using
Palmer is probably using Azum's MiSTer core, he cannot use Mazamar's work because Analogue has an exclusive license and as far as I know there isn't another viable option

>>11969787
There are only so many people who know the answer to this and it wouldn't be hard to figure out who the leaker is if it was to be widely disseminated

>>11971141
I've discovered some disturbing video game shit if said games are messed with for long lengths of time, but also wanted to know how stable the program was.

>>11971137
Then you wouldn't have a reason to have the hyperkin at all. Just real hardware that works way better than that chinese crap.

>>11967448
That's hilarious. Audiophile-tier buzzwords and snake oil.

>>11971193
It's not the slowdown specifically, it's timings. If you could somehow keep the timings the same on an "overclocked" CPU/GPU the game would still run correctly but without slowdown. Some games have very very very specific timings and if everything doesn't happen in exactly the moment and order from each other it expects things could break.

>>11971213
I never bought an Analogue product but isn't their Pocket very popular and still selling as well as getting updates?

IIRC their original products sold out and were never made again because they used actual chips from the original NES and such, which they no longer can reasonably source. Not to mention the absurdity of making it out of titanium and other such nonsense designed to make it look "premium", but their current products are a lot more consumer-ish than monster-cable-snakeoil from what I understand.

>>11971287
>Palmer is probably using Azum's MiSTer core
The MiSTer N64 core isn't perfect though, there are a few problems. They could get around them with better hardware in the M64 but they would have to modify the core for said hardware then.

>There are only so many people who know the answer to this and it wouldn't be hard to figure out who the leaker is if it was to be widely disseminated
I know nothing about the Analogue or ModRetro scene, are you saying you're a leaker that if you gave more details would be found out? Or do you mean if I knew about the scene I would know who the leaker is already?

>>11971308
Can you go into detail? I love hearing about odd and glitchy things in games like that.

>>11971616
>Can you go into detail? I love hearing about odd and glitchy things in games like that.

Here's one for you. I was playing the original Military Madness for the Turbo Grafx 16/PC Engine on an emulator on a Windows XP PC for a long time. Like, it had to be all day and into the night (with breaks). Then finally I decided to replay "ARATUS" (I think) and the CPU opponent for the first time not only made a logical mistake, but it kept on repeating it. It kept trying to take one of its units somewhere where it couldn't go and it must have done that around a minute, then finally gave up.
I think the CPU in MM/Nectaris is aware at a certain point.

It's worth noting that the emulator and ROM I used never, ever had any glitches or problems before or since.

>>11970994
Let's be real here, anyone who buys shit like this is just going to stick a flash cart in there like some overly complex daisy chain of piracy hardware.

Are they going to discontinue the Pocket when this shit comes out.

>>11972486
The analogue 3d looks like their attempt to branch out not move on from their handheld. I’m no expert tho, so maybe an analogue sister can come and tell you more. I feel like I used to see analogue pocket discussions all the time a year or 2 ago but now I barely see it mentioned.

>>11969416
Its probably costs, a high grade FPGA that basically costs $70 per chip and they're chinks getting chinked on by other chinks

>>11972571
Analogue started with consoles, the Pocket was their seventh product launch.

>>11972486
Doubtful

I'm glad I don't care about FPGA faggotry. I got an original N64. I could easily install an HDMI port, but I use Kaico HDMI converter with the mClassic combined and it looks great. Don't know why some idiots have a hard-on for ANALogue or FPGA faggotry.

>>11973359
>mClassic
>looks great
I bet you also like Waifu2x filters and AI upscale packs.

>>11973359
>>11973375
Why is it that people with dogshit opinions always use the mClassic

>>11973375
>>11973379
You guys seem triggered. Unfortunately for you guys, I'm smart with my money and don't waste it on FPGA faggotry.

>>11967016 (OP)
Threadly reminder that THPS1 comes on a blue cart and thus this image is a sham

>>11973384
I'm smarter with my money because I didn't buy a fucking mClassic hahahaa

>>11973398
>Analogue test with bootlegs and other weird shit
More reassurance about the device's capableness.

>>11973425
mClassic is anything but a "waste". I see huge improvements, even with modern consoles. I can tell you never had one.

>>11973448
>I see huge improvements
I bet you do, lol

>>11973448
>Just smear my shit up
Like I said, you probably like smoothing filters and AI upscales because you're a 90IQ latino bothered by pixels.

>>11972486
Why would they? It's probably their most popular device, and it's hardware is nowhere near capable of running N64 so it's not like it would compete with this.

>>11973398
Friendly reminder that this is not true for PAL regions that people who bring up that "fact" always forget

>>11973619
>Why would they?
Well the black version has been sold out for months.

>>11967093
You are saying that as if the mister fpga is powerful (it isnt)

>>11973760
How does saying "X is more powerful than Y" mean I am saying "X is powerful."?

A 486 is more powerful than a 286, that's a true statement, doesn't mean I am saying that the 286 is powerful.

>>11973760
How the hell did you read "X is more powerful than Y" and think that means "Y is powerful."?

A 486 is more powerful than a 286, that's a true statement, doesn't mean I am saying that the 286 is powerful.

Oh nice I had no idea. That makes me far more confident this thing will be released then.

>>11975064
>Oh nice I had no idea.
NTA, but how did you have no idea?

>>11973359
I get not liking a shitty company that treats their customers like shit, but you clearly don't understand what FPGA chips are or what they're for.

>>11973619
Look at the original pic jackass, there's clearly an ESRB rating there

>>11975318
I am aware, now look at the post I responded to, and notice that he never said shit about exclusively the US version.

>>11975350
Are you gay or something? Do I have to dumb it down for you? Grey cart + ESRB rating (indicating it's the US release) = fake, you absolute mongoloid.

>>11973398
Goldeneye and Cruisin' USA are also missing a bunch of badges (ESRB rating, seal of quality, etc.). Not to mention how fake the cartridges look, and the fact that there are variations of the image that are unrealistically similar. It's clearly just a render made for demonstration purposes.

>>11975365
Are you terminally retarded? Or mentally incapable of reading comprehension? Did you even read what I posted or were just looking for an excuse to post more of your best memes of 2012 folder?

>>11975021

OG Gameboy was a fragile piece of shit, they would break from a 3ft drop. There's a reason none of them are around anymore.

Everyone knows it's a 3D renders, they're just pointing out the mistakes they made in them

>>11973347
I don't know

>>11976262
I'm glad this is being said because I knew they were renders from day one, but I didn't want to waste time arguing with potential idiots.

>>11976168
That looks awesome, but I wonder how it would feel after a while. That the rare officially license Chinese N64 variant, yes?

>>11976279
>Medievil
Irrelevant, in the remake if you complete a certain sidequest and finish the game you unlock the OG Playstation version

>>11976273
Yeah, so fragile haha

>>11976583
Best piece of free advertising Nintendo ever got.
>Not even WAR can stop NINTENDO POWER

>>11976583
Ah yes the famous bombed out Gameboy that still worked right? Except you can see in your picture that is fucking doesn't, the screen is fucked, none of the buttons work but the cartridge slot and processer still turn on WOWIE. This shit was the dumbest piece of marketing I ever saw and everyone fell for it hook line and sinker.
The only thing this article proves is that fire retardant plastic is fire retardant.

>>11976659
Pretty sure they proved it plays its demo, anon.

>>11976659
They admitted in the original Nintendo Power article that the buttons didn’t work (though, apparently start and select still worked fine.) It’s still pretty impressive.

>>11976675
>As a police officer in Oklahoma City

Looks like it doesn’t make sense for fps ganes, I thought these could be more optimally controlled with dpad for movement analog for aiming and trigger for shooting - this gamepad is retarded

>>11975898
Lying gets you nowhere kid.

>>11976675
The Nintendo Power article is actually pretty well written and honest, it's the people who pretend like this is a fully functional unit and it's just cosmetic damage, and yes I have heard this at least a dozen times. Thankfully it's less so than it used to be.
>>11976665
Yeah, the cartridge slot and processor were still functioning so it can technically start a game and maybe even get into the game as apparently the start/select button were functional. This unit could be repaired to be in a playable state but as it is you are not playing shit on that thing.

It's a great story but it's not that impressive, the common polymer at the time was a heat resistant ABS with a fuck load of bromine, ABS is stiff as fuck, very little shock absorption and as a result transfers most of that to the critical components. Surviving a fire is cool but also kind of what these are supposed to do, but they are fuck all for drop resistance which is a hell of a lot more common than a fire.

>>11977220

You do realize it suffered concussive force from a bomb blast that caused that fire too, right?

>>11977274
If a bomb landed directly on this thing it would be toast, it very clearly suffered fire damage and says such in the article. It never even mentioned a bombing. If it were the case it was certainly far away from the blast site. There's a lot of made up info about the story to make it sound far more impressive but the original Nintendo Power article is honestly pretty fair with it's assessment.

>>11977339
Concussive force messes mofos up within yards, mang.

>>11977197
Are you a rep or something?
I want my money back cunt

>>11977583
No. I'm a mClassic owner.

>>11967016 (OP)
Why laugh at something thats trying to support the longevity of something we love. Do you want retro gaming to die out? You enjoy the fact that N64 emulation is still imperfect? Analogue solves those issues. They're good in my book.

>>11978106
Retro gaming would be just fine with out Anallog, shill.

>>11977789
It shows

imagine spending hundreds of dollars for hardware instead of emulating for free

>>11974520
Yes but the strangest thing to me about it his how there's an entire N64 crammed into the controller itself and how that shit was somehow possible to do all the way back in 2005, yet nowadays people apparently can't seem to do just that but more efficently with modern hardware & software improvements for some reason.

>>11978196
NOOO you cant just emulate inside your computer, you *_HAVE_* to emulate inside this other computer or else your literally genociding retro gayems

>>11978106
You have to remember a lot of people on here have no money. They pirate everything and demand you only use pre approved solutions like a mister or some shit. It’s truly bizarre how angry people get at companies making niche products for a nice part of gaming. I honestly can’t wait for it to come out and if it fails oh well, easy refund. Also going to get one of the M64’s whenever they come out. Maybe some of it is fomo because 200 is less than what people would pay for some asshole to solder a bunch of shit on an original 64 for some 1080p mod.

Either way when it drops I hope it’s absolutely amazing and all these fags getting unreasonably mad and aggressive can all suck it.

>>11978617
It was officially licensed by Nintendo so they had access that others haven’t? Is my guess

>>11978763
this lol
Can't wait for input lag, shitty shaders, laggy wifi online play and aspect ratio issues

>>11977361
Yes, now go show me where it says there was a bomb in the original article, it mentions a fire no bomb. Again, if this thing was bombed it would be done without some kind of insane luck.
Again, it's already a good story as it is no need to add embellishments.

>>11978843
It was a fire started by a bomb in a war, you weirdo. You're the angry virgin from the CRT thread for sure.

>>11978846
Nigga you're the one making shit up. I'm telling you from experience that the Gameboy is a fragile handheld, and that's fine, but what's not is when people try to misinterpret a good story into meaning something it doesn't.

>>11978859
You are the CRT-anger anon. Dude, shut the fuck up. It's clear you're miserable and that no one likes you. You ignore facts and start trouble because you're frustrating that you've never kissed, held, or fucked a woman, and won't ever.

>>11978870
lmao keep schizin' bro I genuinely have no idea what the fuck you are going off about.

>>11978870 >>11978859
Fights out! Someone is going…. Lights out! What’s this nonsense about CRT and anger

>>11978909
/vr/ has a mentally ill anon who is frustrated with his lot in life, so he picked a random IP address and decided to follow them from thread to thread like the mentally ill tranny that they are.
It all started when I kindly suggested that anons without specialized skills to avoid opening CRT monitors to avoid electric shocks or even death, and anon flipped out.

>>11978617
Not really that crazy, SEGA crammed a Genesis into a handheld in 1995. And the Gamegear was essentially a portable Master System.

It's not that people "can't do it" these days, but that it's cheaper not to. Back then they didn't have a choice if they wanted a more portable form factor. We didn't have arm-based microcomputers and aduinos coming out the ass everywhere for pennies, and software emulation of the N64 in 2005 would have been unfeasible for an affordable portable device. Plus it helps if you have all the design docs of the hardware, Nintendo had all the chips and hardware blueprints, and it was a decade later, making a portable device with revised and more efficient versions of said blueprints was not that crazy, again, SEGA did the same, twice. Plus the iQue was missing features from the real N64 anyway.

>>11978803
>They pirate everything and demand you only use pre approved solutions like a mister or some shit.
I 100% promise you the "no money pirate everything" and "use a mister" groups are not not even close to the same group, they are generally at each other's necks.

>>11978909
Newfag believes /vr/ is one person
>>11978923
The funniest part is that I generally agree with this sentiment. People with little to no skills working with electronics should probably not be opening up things that are potentially dangerous to them.

>>11978962
>People with little to no skills working with electronics should probably not be opening up things that are potentially dangerous to them.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I said, then they lost their mind.

Trash.

>>11967874
The Chromatic's screen is fantastic and easily its biggest selling point. I'll be curious to see what makes their N64 stand out when it doesn't have something like that going for it.

>>11979926
Top right unironically looks worse though
Low poly upscaled looks bad

>>11967874
>results still weren't exactly right.
If you like the look of the GBC screen, you'll love it

>>11980671
Depends on the amount of upscale.
I find a 2x upscale to 480p to look really nice for 5th gen 3D, I know it's not authentic but more like a PC or dreamcast port.

>>11980675
I disagree, even 2x removes the roundness of it in 240p on a CRT

Why do i need high price fpga pcb?

Looks like the Mister 64 core dev is working directly on the M64 and it is supposedly improved from that
https://x.com/PalmerLuckey/status/1960135473285722119

>>11980829
Its so over for analogue since their gimmick was being able to play on modern displays. So why wouldn't anyone get tge cheaper M64 which probably wont be in release limbo

>>11980829
Yeah after everybody noticed that the same FPS display that the MiSTer core uses was accidently shown in that video everyone knew, then the dev admitted it. The M64 will apparently have better hardware than the MiSTer though and be based on AMD's Xilinx FPGAs instead of Intel's Cyclone FPGAs and could potentially have a fully accurate core without the need for hacks.

I said could, but what they actually do remains to be seen.

Also apparently it won't be locked down like Analogue's consoles so there might be potential for hacking other cores onto it, but I highly doubt you can just load a MiSTer core on it without porting the code over first.

"Palmer Luckey" is a good goy who sucks Israel's dick for more defense contracts. Zero interest in giving money to a guy who hangs out with homosexual crypto jews like Peter Thiel and helps the Israeli government openly undermine the sovereignty of white countries without consequence.
>go back to /pol/
Its important to know where your money is going and you cannot afford to stick your head in the sand about these issues any longer.

Do you know why they're called ANALogue? Because they fuck their customers in the ASS!
LOL LMAO

Go back to /pol/ anyway, and stay there
Nobody here gives a fuck, you have a containment board for a reason

>>11981510
Absolutely not, jew.

>>11980883
How cheap do you think it will be because the analogue 3d is 200 so we talking 99?

>>11981649
The Analogue 3D is $250, and I think that's just a preorder discount. The M64 is going to be $200.

>>11981649
Nobody is going to be able to buy an Anallog 3D for 200. At retail it will be a lot closer to twice that amount.

>>11982013
>yet another piece of trash made for youtubers to pump up

Neat. Maybe next time they can be more dishonest and make a worse product that costs quadruple.

>>11982013
The higher end FPGAs alone are like $70+ for a 100K lut one, now they're putting the next gen 200K lut so it'll be like $130 per chip and they've probably bought up all the inventory thus the price should increase after the first batch, its not scalpers alone inflating the prices

>>11980671
Time to get some glasses, grandpa.

What's with those comments not getting removed. You know that they've got reported. Jannies don't do a fucking thing for this board.

>>11981870
Ah okay yeah 250 vs 200 isn’t a big difference tho. I am interested in what the m64 controller will be.
>>11982013
Well idk about that, I reserved one and I just assumed they would restock if it does well. Not sure why they wouldn’t if it’s profitable and gets good reviews. Why go through all the trouble (unless it’s a scam and they’re tanking their business).

>>11982806
If you can get one for $250 that's pretty good. And no they're not going to get restocked for $250. They're probably shitting their pants that they sold them for that cheap because they fucked up.

>>11982713
Jannies are too busy deleting floigan threads to do anything else, please understand

>>11982923
Seeing consoles like the switch and the Xbox one x go up in price (ps5 too I guess?) that’s a reasonable assumption if they do another run. They’ll just go muh tarrifs and what, sell it for 300? 349.99?

>>11982947
>implying the mentally anon isn't the troll

>>11982951
*isn't the janny

>>11982949
Also speaking on the prices of the switch in particular going up in price after 7 years on the markets, is this the first time in history the out going gen actually went up in price? Like, it’s as if the Sega Genesis went up 75 dollars after the Sega Saturn launched, for example. Maybe pre Nintendo this happened? Or is it a first for video game history?

>>11982958
Nta, but it's a first. And not Nintendo's fault at all. The fault lies with the Satanic father of /pol/, Trump.

>>11979401
I still remember when one is you jackasses got utterly btfo when you called an emulatorfag poor, and than he replied with proof he owns an Index.

>>11983126
Wtf is an Index?

>>11982998
Ah geez Larry, we got a live one here!

>>11983134
A Valve index. A misterfag was calling an emulatorfag a brokie, and then he replied with proof he casually blew $1000 dollars on a VR kit, but still prefers emulation

>>11983779
Thank you.

isnt that called constipation?

>>11983779
