They are awesome, all my retro systems look really sharp and crisp on my LCD TV. You can essentially make the games look as sharp and clean as they look on emulators, coupled with scanlines games look really really nice. There is virtually no input lag either, I would highly recommend one!
I used to have a XRGB Mini for my Neo Geo AES/MVS, but for me it wasn't really worth the money, since my old Sony LCD seemed to do a good job for some reason and I seem to be in that small percentage of people who aren't mad about scanlines.
I sold it on in the end, but do kinda wish I kept it now that I've modded my Mega Drive and SNES with 60Hz switches, the TV doesn't like it, so I had to buy a HD converter.
The units were over £300 from Japan when I bought mine, so prices are coming down and they are packed with all kinds of options/settings which I had no idea how to use.
Great unit, but too expensive for my uses.
Went down to a shop to have a look at their 22" TV's, not much to select from, but found a cheap 1, but found out there's no kind of returns unless the thing is faulty, so I came away empty handed.
Didn't want to take a punt on a £100 TV that doesn't work for me, I have that problem with my current TV, doesn't like the SNES when I switch it to 60hz to play American games, goes slightly blurry, so I have to use a HDMI upscaller.
Not so much retro, but I wasn't sure where else to put this ..just bought this for some retro gaming goodness. Haven't received it yet. But I shall post first impressions when I do!
