Why don't you own one of these lil' things yet?
Why don't you own one of these lil' things yet?
Because I don't have autism
What's inside the box?
Pain.
Fuck off back to Anon Babble
For anyone wanting to know what that is, because OP is too much of a fucking retard to say the name or even give a link to a product page, it's a Raspberry Pi 4.
While not made specifically for games, it can emulate a lot of old consoles, up to about the Dreamcast.
OP's pic is just the case, but you can buy a kit with the Raspberry Pi 4 and all that's necessary, costs about 100 dollars.
amazon.com
Personally, I had one of these just to play with it, but after I was done, I gave it away to a friend and now I emulate old games on my PC.
I have a Mac Mini.
Emulator box
Anon Babble
lol
I've thought about getting one for pet projects, but I just don't care enough for gaming stuff. I already have a capable living room PC that can emulate up to the PS4.
I have a gaming pc and a spare hdmi cable.
You can't hook your gaming PC up to a PC monitor with HDMI
chink converters
They force the image down from 16:9 into 4:3, even if you already gave it a 4:3 resolution
raspberry pi
For the love of god do not buy one of those for emulation. Assemble yourself a MiSTer or buy a clone.
same shit
based
The fuck are you talking about? Not only do plenty of PC monitors have HDMI ports, if it's a living room PC, it's obviously going to be hooked up to a tv.
I fucked up, I meant CRT TV. idk why I typed PC monitor
Fuck off.
Already did. Just wish I could stream anime to it like I can with a Pi
Hell no, MiSTer has easily the best Saturn emulator in general and native 240p output. It completely shits on software emulation in everyway, especially on something weak like a Pi.
saturn emulation
Oh, its this autist. You haven't made a shill thread in a while. Why not? I thought you were having a blast.
Because I'm not a transsexual.
I need long load times!
Any gamer's got a spare pc from previous upgrades that run better than all of these combined
nooo don't do normal emulation! you have to do worse autistic emulation!
There's more than one person who owns a MiSTer on this board. There is however one obvious third world seether every time it's brought up (and it's you).
AI always tells me how little care companies have towards their products
MiSTer doesn't even rely on Terasic for the DE10-nano anymore, there is no company even tangentially associated with the program.
Nah nigga, its definitely you. I know it is because nobody else owns this piece of shit and relentlessly calls other people thirdies because they won't buy an FPGA kit.
I don't think you're having a blast with the lack of threads you've making.
DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT AN FPGA IS? I AM HAVING A BLAST!
the artwork retard
ai art isn't a point on his MiSTer shill script pls understand
NO IDEA! AND I DON'T NEED IT B-)
Emulation combined with monitors and tv is to much lag and input latency especially for platformer games which like 90% of retro games are, I have a everdrive and a re capped sega genesis instead, and yea its expensive but whatever. Atleast my kids will have a epic childhood without all this modern pozzed shit
You said "company" and "product" which are not terms that apply here.
There's at least five of us last time I asked for everyone to post their setup.
Even a casual nonpower user can benefit from FPGA emulation. Nobody like stuttering or input lag or shitty user interfaces.
FPGA isn't for the normies. If they are chosen to use one they will use one.
It's always funny seeing the browns seethe when the white man tech gets posted
Mister is the centrist cuck choice, if you don't care you spend $0 and just use regular emulator if you actually do care you play on OG hardware. Mister is an absurdly stupid product for stupid people.
because I can just run emulators on my fucking computer??
Mills, put the gun down.
That's not a Mister and why the fuck would you waste money buying OG hardware?
usb port
better usb port
Why don't they just make them all equally good?
Better USB ports take up more resources. Specifically CPU time and PCIe lanes, both of which are limited on a Pi
Not buying your scalped original hardware
i prefer full-sized gaming laptops w/ dedicated GPU connected to my TVs. they just work better and are thin enough you can place in a TV stand shelf
I do, been using it for years as a torrent machine and sftp box that I can access everywhere.
Been thinking of expanding it with a 4TB HDD so I could seed even more shit, but alas I'm limited by my shitty 20mbps upload speed
full-sized
There are more options than ever
Why should I get that instead of proper mini PC?
Is that a mister
Why don't you own one of these lil' things yet?
I prefer the old analog fingerboxes.
Can you plug your mini PC into a CRT?
No
What do I need to read to understand what each of these little parts does?
A Raspberry Pi? I got like 10 of them on my work bench right now. It is going to go down to 3 next week because I got a bunch of orders this last week.
Can you plug your mini PC into a CRT?
Did you know hardware is backwards compatible?
And how are you going to hook up an ISA card to a modern PC, and where do the drivers come from?
Don't even have to go far back. Are you not aware of VGA? Nvidia drivers.
not trans
I do, it's running Pihole and Unbound for my network.
forces your main GPU to run at 8x bandwidth
suffocates your GPU by being right next to it
pumps all its waste heat into your main GPU
adds more noise
just so you can avoid buying a pi
No thanks
Wake me up when i can buy a Pi with CFexpress support
My main GPU is in a different case in a different room lol
Hell, I'm pretty sure the last CRT I used supported DVI, so I can even run my old 970
it's absurdly stupid to save thousands of dollars
Semitic reseller hands typed this post.
heres the important one datasheets.raspberrypi.com
Because I have an actual gaming pc for when I'm home and a Steam Deck for when I'm not
software emulation
they're all software emulations
I do. Or rather my kid does.
Anyways its a fun little PC. great for retro gaming and steamlinks easy to my household media server which also has alot of games.
Ive got a spare raspberry 4 8gb lyin around. Gonna try and do some HAM radio shit with it.
Pi is overpriced AF, the only reason to get it disappered.
Thought about getting one of these to run a game server on
Basically the only shit I could run on it is fucking minecrap or some FOSS stuff, I can at the least run some GoldSRC servers on a ps2
Think about running an email server
Google's fucked up email and this is a sure fire way to ensure nobody will receive an email I ever send
Like the only thing I could reasonably use one of these for is a home media server.
this kills the shills
they are so overpriced now, you're better off buying a Steam Deck
Video cards haven't had DVI out for like 10 years now
You gonna run 8 bit shit on 5090?
If you aren't already experienced with running linux servers then don't bother setting up an email server. Even when you've used linux for a while it's a pain in the fucking ass, and you are liable to miss important emails because some dumb fucking reason you couldn't have forseen.
No, that's what the Pi is for.
WASINDABAHS
Just get a mini pc.
just pay 10x the price for no reason
Why?
Why buy gimmicks when you've already got everything you need in a storaqe closet?
bringing up price
implying OG hardware is cheaper than a mister
A SNES and an SD2SNES (or whatever they're calling it nowadays) alone will cost you more than a Mister. For one console.
I mean it's an exercise in futility anyway because anything I'd send would get mulched as spam, and google's just as liable to eat outbound mail for "safety" reasons.
Nah I'm good
t. Rock64 user
What do I have in a storage closest that can hook up to a CRT?
Buy an ad
What, are you 14?
Seems like the MiSTer shitted and flopped. Thats what happens when white men don't want your shitty product.
jej
have gaming PC for PC games
have homebrewed switch for retro emulation
Why would I need a SBC?
Why not use the PC I ALREADY OWN AND WHERE I'M SHITPOSTING FROM?
You need a separate box because...
You aren't white if you think OP's image is a Mister, saar
You can't hook it up to a CRT TV, that's why
Why would I? I've got a fancy modern 240hz screen
So do I
CRT is still faster for 2D vidya
I don't have a CRT anyways.
good enough for me
keep your scams to yourself
...why not just buy the original console and homebrew it? PS3 runs everything for Sony and Wii runs everything for Nintendo
Stop using a Wii for emulation.
It's slow as fuck
RaspberryPi
scam
lol you are so fucking brown
you aint white israelite
What can it do that my Raspberry Pi 4 can't? Honest question.
PS3 can't do 240p
Wii is garbage for emulation, especially N64 emulation
Hey moshie no one is going to buy your $500 SNES
OP posted a RaspberryPi, retard
Wii is garbage for emulation, especially N64 emulation
But it has native Gamecube compatibility and can run in 240p if you're using a CRT
Really? Sheeit, I thought that was a MiSTer, I didn't recognise the casing.
Yeah but if you want to play PS1 and N64 games now it is not enough.
That's not emulation.
Obviously use your Wii for GCN and Wii stuff. For everything else it's shit
doesn't recognize the Pi port layout
Anon...
Stop using your Pis for emulation.
Use them for PiHole + Unbound.
Biggest redpill and life changer.
not him but if that's true
how do i go aboot turning a rasp pi into something of a serviceable gaming station?
It's a Pi.
I was talking about the subhuman im this thread trying to shill everyone FPGA garbo.
Install Retropie on it
A Pi 4 should be able to emulate everything up to the Dreamcast, don't know about a Pi 5
Stop shittalking the MiSTer. It has 100% accurate neo-vagina dilater emulation! Software kids on retroarch don't know what they're missing.
I'm having a fucking blast.
Sure thing Rhaj
Are you the one shillng buying overpriced original hardware rather than paying 1/10th to get a Pi too?
You install emulation station
using retroshart
a Pi's unironically pretty comfy if you tend to travel for work a lot
just plug it to your hotel room's TV and do whatever you want
one time I modded my Fire TV Stick to run Genesis ROMs with an Xbox controller, it was pretty cool
PC emulation
No thanks
Ugh, yeah, could you imagine?
It's like I said that Retroarch pales in comparison in my post or something.
What in retardation compels a retard to disable the visibility of the button mapper to cry about a frontend (because retroarch, is, again, not an emulator) online?
Based and objectively correct pilled. Emulation belongs on FPGA. Software emulation fags are subhuman troglodytes unworthy of consideration.
Why have that if you can just install retroarch on your PC. No need for 20 devices when you can keep it all in one box.
retroarch
lol
The box. You opened it. We came.
