Paid Members FLips Posted August 18, 2019 Paid Members Posted August 18, 2019 I have the Raspberry Pi 3 and it’s spot on. It came pre-loaded but I went out of my way to learn very basic Python Coding and changed some of the visuals and settings. Got wireless Ps3 pads working on it too. Drag and drop games on and off, real easy. They just released 4 which by the sounds of it finally has near-perfect emulation of N64, Saturn and Dreamcast which the 3 can’t handle. Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted August 25, 2019 Paid Members Posted August 25, 2019 My mate's over from Colombia for a few weeks. We're having a geeky day today and I spotted Bubble Bobble is on PS4. I'm pretty sure I've got it on a Taito compilation somewhere for PS2, but this'll be more immediate fun when we've had enough of Street Fighter and SoulCalibur. Quote

Thinking of doing a bit of python coding myself . Just to learn . How did you find it ? What resources did you use ? Quote

Paid Members Accident Prone Posted August 30, 2019 Paid Members Posted August 30, 2019 How good is the emulation, Srcatch? Any sound distortion, flickering or stuff just looking off? Quote
Paid Members Accident Prone Posted August 30, 2019 Paid Members Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) Brilliant stuff. I saw a Pi Zero with one of those cases floating around on eBay but had my doubts so that's great to hear. I probably have three or four gadgets that could be turned into a 16-bit emulation station but I just really like the look of that case. Edited August 30, 2019 by Accident Prone Quote
DavidB6937 Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 How are the other cases for hooking up to TV? Do they work well? Think I'd prefer something like that rather than a handheld but I've not really purchased anything like this before. Quote
DavidB6937 Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 Oh that is gorgeous. Would you recommend it as a good starting point for a Pi TV console? I've been doing some reading and there's so many different options, I'm not really sure where to start! Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted August 31, 2019 Paid Members Posted August 31, 2019 I hear really good things about those 8-Bit Do controllers. When I finally get a PC sorted out I'll possibly pick one up. Or are they compatible with PS4/XBox One? Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted September 2, 2019 Paid Members Posted September 2, 2019 Might be worth a look. Could help with my street fighter, and I prefer playing retro best em ups on a pad like that as well. Quote

I usually play as Dan wherever possible,,but being able to piano buttons can make combos easier to dial in.whoeveryou play as. I've been playing as Balrog (boxer) quite a bit recently. Quote
DavidB6937 Posted September 5, 2019 Posted September 5, 2019 Good news for anyone with a Switch online: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-09-04-snes-games-are-finally-coming-to-switch-online Quote
Retro Red Posted September 5, 2019 Posted September 5, 2019 Good starting line-up too, looking forward to seeing what gets added in the coming months. I've got the 8bitdo pro SNES pad so that'll be getting some use tonight Quote
