Has anyone got one of the Pi Retro Gaming consoles? I dont think i can link but easy search. Thinking of getting one, the extreme console looks Amazing, thousands and thousands of classics from all formats.

Ok,now i could have been looking at the wrong thing (quick google and clicked the first hit) but £175 quid, NOPE lol. We cant really go into to much detail because piracy, but a rasp pi +case + 2 crap controllers + a crap keyboard n mouse is no where near worth that.Youtube is your friend in this case search for retropie.

It's not piracy though, the games are included right?
And they've licensed each and every one of them from the original publishers?
Wow... that must have taken years of negotiation.

No idea, but the device is out on the market to buy so surely they'd be stupid if they hadn't the rights to put the games on the console. A pretty easy lawsuit as there are 10k games included apparently.
I think it's fair to say that they're stupid then...
Chances of getting caught are low unless they start getting popular though.

Playing metroid prime 2 at the moment! It's as fun as it is frustrating at times. About 5 hours in! Only thing annoying me at the moment is the fixed save points being so far apart
I’ve been hoarding my 90s gaming collection and I don’t really know what to do with it. Thought you lot might want to see them anyway 
have a few n64 boxes not pictured. Some great games in there and some absolute shockers (I’m looking at you rise of the robots and South Park)!! It’s one of those heartbreaking things of not really wanting to sell them but they are just sitting there and I know I should get rid of them really 
Anyway, hope they bring you some nostalgia
^Also have 1080 snowboarding!
^ A few have deffo gone missing... where’s my marvel vs capcom 2

Yea lovely lot there, it's a shame to see that you may be getting rid but can completely understand it.
If you do decide to sell up, let the guys know here as I'm sure many would help you out or take stuff off your hands etc
Lovely set of DC stuff, many must haves there! I have Shenmue waiting to be played as I missed it at the time!

You know that boxed copy of Shenmue isn't worth anything at all these days. You may as well give it away. I hear its an OK game and I'd like to take it off your hands and play it

Yes I’m mulling over getting rid of it all. Have an equal amount of GameCube stuff too. Will let you know if it goes up on members market!

GameCube is my JAM
Hopefully you manage to find a way to keep hold of it all if you can

Did the swap trick to flash my Action Replay with Pseudo Saturn. Works like a charm.
Such a shame that some of the Saturn games are so expensive!
