Looks cool with 4k upscaling support. We’ll have to see about price, since we have the Mister and the upcoming Mars to compare it to.

    Analogues consoles complement a mister, if you want a system that will play your games, and look good on your big flat screen tv then analogue do very very well

    if you want more than that, sure a mister works but it’s a lot more effort and work, especially if you are not familiar with linux.

    different products for different kinds of people.

      We’ll see how Mars compares when that is released. The UI looks a lot more polished compared to the Mister.

      I will argue most people buying these consoles will eventually want to play more than just original carts, which means more setup either via a jailbreak or everdrive. I’d say both of those are not any more difficult to set up than a prebuilt Mister.

        I would probably argue the opposite. most people who buy an analogue device will use it s few times to relive some childhood memories than it’ll sit on a shelf for a long time

        For people that get engaged and want to do more, mister or a pocket with open fpga is a good next step. But most people just want to play the three nintendo games they loved

        Ehh it’s still very high. What you have to do with an analogue system to take advantage of the open fpga stuff is already too complex tbh.

        It’s easy to forget how difficult this stuff can be when you are knowledgeable on it. I used to be a developer on a very popular Linux distribution, and we dealt with this a lot. People have enough going on in their lives without having to understand how this stuff works.

        That’s why the analogue systems are so great, legitimately plug and play all your old games. If you wanna do more, mister is there and so is a 4 hour mlig video about how to do things with it

          This is SO true, when I rediscovered retro emulation a couple years ago Retroarch was an impossible-to-navigate mess. Now I know it very well but I try to remind myself that a lot of non commercial software is not at all obvious to many newcomers.
