I won one in an eBay auction a few months ago for $34. It came with a case, a USB mini keyboard, a USB NES controller, a USB SNES controller and a WIFI adapter. I bought a mini NES console casing for it for around $8. I set it up so everything runs on an external USB micro sd card adapter, and I'm using a Kingston 64gb sd card with no issues. I'm using a wireless XBox 360 controller and I also have Kodi installed, which streams movies and TV shows. I love this thing!

Setting up my Raspberry Pi 3 was one of the hardest thing that I've ever done computer-wise. I've always used Windows and had no idea how to use Linux what so ever. But, the payoff was amazing. I was able to get the Pi to triple boot with Kodi, RetroPi, and Rasbian and it is amazing. I can use it as a word processor, retro games player, and entertainment center. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to use a PC to do anything on their living room TV.

Most USB controllers are terrible, and the best ones still aren't as good as the original controllers. 3. You can actually get better controllers for less money if you buy the original controllers on ebay and then get a USB adapter.

I got a Dell 2007FPB off ebay for $25, Its 1600 x 1200 resolution and is bright with beautiful color. The dell monitor has a built in powered USB hub so it will run the PI without an extra plug. I attached the PI to the back of the monitor with velcro. I have an SNES to USB adapter that allows you to use 2 OG SNES controllers. I have a dell soundbar that attaches to the bottom of the monitor and also like the usb, powers from the monitors internals. I got a 12in HDMI to DVI adapter cable. Once I got everything up and running I realized how much I hated the hotkeys on the controller so I got a usb number pad and programmed it to handle all the functions, I printed labels for each of the number keys so I can open the cheat menu, use savestates and reset the console or go back to the retropie menu. I cannot stress how much better the original SNES controller are than any aftermarket USB crap. they make adapters to use any controller you want, I had PS1 controllers originally but decided the SNES were just more fun. this unit carries as one piece, with one cord. I've been looking for a messenger bag at goodwill to carry it all in, but that hardly effects the ability to transport the entire system.

Had a Raspberry Pi 3. Sold it to a friend and got an Odroid XU4 with Batocera as the OS. Plays N64 games much better, also plays PSP and Dreamcast games. Don't limit yourself to just Raspberry Pi 3 and Retropie... there's many comparable devices and the best is actually a mini PC. There's also several OS to use such as Recalbox and Lakka. If you find Retropie difficult to use, the other two are more user friendly.

Swapping discs with ISO files requires going into RGUI and navigating menus and folder structure to load in the second disk from a separate file. Pbp files make that process into a menuless process with 3 presses of a hot key. Pbp is superior to ISO.

Its not it has slowing loading times, you still need to covert the files. On some PC's it takes a lot of time. Just figure out how to use the damn menu. Simple as that. The hotkeys you're using to switch the disks work on ISO files too, so no need to convert them at all. Stop wasting your time. So no, PBP is not superior to ISOS, not even close.

No don't laugh. If you are able to find one (recently picked one up at a Thrift store for 7.50) you can add a larger hard drive and then load a program called CoinOps. The developers are up to CoinOps 8 I believe. The interface is incredibly polished and it runs very well. Modding an Xbox would be right up your alley, and there are a ton of tutorials here on KZitem.

I personally always prefer WiiSX, it seems to work better, but some games work better on PCSX-Revolution for some reason. Make sure to get the NTSC-U versions of the game, if available. The emulator seems to have some problems emulating PAL games sometimes and NTSC-U games run better in my experience. Not sure why that is, I have a PAL Wii running 4.3E software.

I set mine up to use an external hard drive. This obviously gives you ample more space for larger games, like for PSX. It is helpful to learn a little bit about Linux and honestly made me a lot better at using it just by having to research on how to get it to do things I wanted it to. I have mine setup as an addon in Kodi. I use Putty to send commands to it. Some quck advise on how to use an external drive is to edit the es_systems.cfg file. This contains all commands that point to where all the different components are. You will create a Roms directory and then another directory for each emulator. Then chanaged the file I mentioned like this, for example: /home/osmc/RetroPie/roms/snes -to- /MOUNTEDFOLDER/roms/snes

Yes they did do that, but that's not blackmail by definition. They threatened to take away publishing on the NES because they signed an exclusivity deal with those third party companies. So they had a monopoly on the gaming market and later stopped doing that because the federal government was investigating them for breaking antitrust laws (which they did.) Blackmail would be forcing 3rd party companies to only develop for them because they have dirt on the companies or CEO's and would reveal it if they didn't comply.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but you can do multi-disk PSX games the same way the PSP does them. Using a program called PSX2PSP, you can create PBP files, which can contain up to 5 disks. Once you create a multi-disk PBP file, load it using the pcsx-rearmed emulator. To swap disks, press SELECT+Triangle on PS1/2/3/4 controller (Y on Xbox 360), select Quick Menu, go down to Disc Control, select Disk Cycle Tray Status, and you should see "Ejected Vitual Disk Tray". Go up to Disk Index and press left or right to go through the disc numbers. Select the disc number you want, and go back down to Disk Cycle Tray Status and you should see "Closed Virtual Disk Tray", then just go back, and resume the game.

Dude, no need to convert anything. You can switch disks via the RGUI menu. Just stick with the original image files. That shit you just described works with the normal image files bro, so why convert them?
@YoItsTrev
7 жыл бұрын
Because it is easier to have one file? Because PBP files are compressed versions, so they take up less space? Not having to see "Final Fantasy IX" 4 times in the games list, and no good way of finding out what disk is what? It takes next to no time to build a PBP file, and the convenience is immense. And before you say "You can manually edit the entries to have the disk numbers", I can guarantee that building a PBP file takes less time for my PC than manually editing all the entries to add disk labels.

Very nice video. Additional stuff some might consider: 8bitdo controllers, i went for the crissaegrim versions. Moving the system partition to a usb flash drive and keeping the boot manager on the sd card, that way you get larger cheaper more solid storage (sd cards prone to failure when overclocking).

More people need to this video if only for the quick tutorial on getting Turbograx CD games running. They are incredibly annoying, unless you do it just right. This is the first video I have seen cover that. Also, I think that it was mentioned below but for multi-disk PS1 games just get PSX2PSP. It is free, easy, and lets you create a game from any number of disks because it puts them all together into 1 pbp file that ps1 emulators can handle.

Best way I've found for multi disc is convert to pbp (psp) file. Have successfully done stuff like ff7/8 xenogears vagrant story. PSX2PSP is the software and allows you to use up to 5 bin or img files and combines them into one psp file. It also reduces file size, I've had it reduce files by up to almost 70%, while others only 10%.

It's been a few months since this was published. If you go into the configuration menu and do a full update then you can program the PS button to replace select in the emulator hotkeys. So, select + start would become PS + start. This fixed my issue of exiting the emulator while playing Super Metroid.

When talking about smoothing for PS1, I think you were confusing dithering for aliasing. Dithering is the technique that makes textures look transparent by making them look like screen doors. Aliasing is the stairstep edges you see on images and models. Great review though. I enjoyed watching.

I already own games like Super Mario Bros. on the NES, Wii, 3DS and Wii U, so no doubt when VC finally comes to the Switch, I'd have to pay for it again which is stupid. But having this will be amazing, and I'll be able to load some of my GameBoy games on to this as well and play them on the big screen!
