RetroUSB's new NES Console Available for Preorder

Alex writes:

"A few months back I reported on the Mini NES, quite possibly one of the few times we'll see Nintendo take a stab at the retro gaming crowd outside of the E-Shop. Of course, this comes after there have been many consoles capable of playing NES carts, which is strange due to the Mini NES' lack of ability to do so. There are probably at least fifteen different clone consoles that do NES cartridges, like the Retron 5 or the Generation NEX just to name a couple. This is where Retro USB comes in with a new NES style console that takes cartridges and puts them in HD on modern televisions through HDMI."

And it will lag because nes was not designed to display on hdtvs.

Obviously you have NEVER used an emulator.

stalepie2834d ago

It's not using an emulator. Read about it here, it sounds excellent:

You've never heard of the XRGB mini I see :D

Retroman2834d ago (Edited 2834d ago )

the Question is : why isn't Nintendo doing this as a side job for extra money. how hard it is to add HDMI port on reboot Nes-Snes consoles for current HD tv

Sony States We Will Know More About the "Long-Term Vision" of PlayStation Later This Month

Sony has confirmed that there is something happening later this month and it involves SIE which is the division that operates PlayStation.

Skuletor7h ago

My guess, is they were waiting for the new CEO position to be finalized before their next showcase and now that's out of the way.

neutralgamer19926h ago

Yes I think you are right. They wanted the leadership in place hopefully now they can give a strong showing of what’s to come

S2Killinit6h ago

Its not confirmed that this will involve game announcements.

Cacabunga6h ago

Tbh this claim doesn’t reassure me at all..

Eonjay1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

@S2Killinit

If this is about games that worries me because I thought they were walking away from announcing titles far in advance. For them to say 'Long Term Vision' sounds like we are getting announcements years in advance. I don't want that. Lets hope the long term vision part refers to their goal for the company and that they also give us info on projects reaching fruition in the short term.

Also, this is gonna be where we find out that they are going full PC day and date (or greatly reduced if they don't have the capacity at their studios). Its gonna happen. Why? Because all you have to do is look at Helldivers... fastest selling PlayStation game ever. And they make good games. They will sell.
Now we can fight over whether this will hurt the console space. I don't think so as long as they provide an option that will allow people to come close to maxing out their graphics... ergo the PRO.

46player7h ago

Sounds good, PS5 Pro preorders. Let’s do this!

Crows906h ago

I don't get it....we barely got any ps5 exclusives and people already want a refresh??

crazyCoconuts6h ago

When they show GTA6 on the Pro I think you'll get it

VersusDMC5h ago

Pretty sure we got 5 console exclusives this year so far and 3rd party games took advantage of the PS4pro last gen so it will happen with the PS5pro as well.

romulus235h ago

I don't get it either but people get new iphones the second they come out even though they just bought the previous one which works just fine. Some people just want the latest and greatest no matter what and have the income to do it. If the improvement to games is significant enough I may get one but probably not at launch.

-Foxtrot5h ago

Exactly

I will always be behind the idea that one of the reasons why this gen doesn't feel as much of a leap is because we kind of got spoilt with the PS4 Pro last gen. It was like a teaser to this gen.

Looking back on a technological leap after 7 years is way more impressive than if it was 3 or so.

Big things right around the corner.

purple1017h ago

Almost optimistic to say, but those leaks of the 6 cancelled games (games that were not even announced)

yeh, maybe some didn't actually get cancelled after all

notachance7h ago

as a long time ps fans I hope they still put great single player games front and center, make your live service games if you have to but don’t force your 1st party studios to make something they don’t want to.. redfall is an unfortunate example of a good studio forced to basically destroy themselves.

Eonjay1h ago

Good points. How would you feel if Sony decided to put their single player games on PC day and date? This would allow their studios making single player games to recoup more money to keep the games coming. If it works with GaaS why not single player?
