Metal Jesus Cucks & General Retro Fucks

[VoiceOfReasonPast]

Ya wanna blow them up for them sweet filters, man.

(Which generally look like arse, and it always triggers me if some 2D port on Steam comes with that shit activated on default. Bonus points if the equally horrible "Stretch this shit to widescreen"-option is also turned on by default.)

Also, emulation exists.

Exactly. You either play a MD game on a tube telly with an actual Megadrive or you emulate. Why would I want to blow up an old game onto a 1080p flat screen?

Other than Donkey Kong Country the games on the SNES mini all looked pretty good on a flat screen.

Also, what's a computer?

CGR confirmed dead. Mark is selling off his game collection (Ebay listings):

He's apparently selling books like Pat now:

Do collectorfags really preach this? I haven't watched one in so long.

I seem to remember Pat Cuntri being obnoxious about this.

My favorite was him sperging about putting Snatcher labels on their random CDs crying that a minority of people may create fake Snatcher CD disks online with the labels and sell them for fraud. Not thinking that most people aren't criminals and scammers like him.

Pat and Ian have support emulation but not selling ROMS or deceptive reproductions for profit. They did lose their shit at The 8-Bit Guy making a video about buying repro labels for games... even though Pat's on record that video game collecting is nothing like comic book collecting (restoring/replacing front cover of comic destroys its value; Pat says that's not the case with games because the game is the most important part). They basically expected the community to "police themselves" (even though that's never going to work since the labels look too genuine).

They also freaked out over Ebay officially allowing repro boxes, manuals, and maps, despite the fact Ebay certainly has lawyers who can tell them the dangers.

The retro market is dying, so it's not like it matters.

Can somebody explain the point of knockoff consoles? A Megadrive is cheap as fuck.

The SG is FPGA-based, so it can create an exact replica of the system's hardware and be 100% compatible.

Looks like actual, factual garbage. Only 10 likes on the post too. Won't be long until he's a wagecuck again, if he isn't already. The only thing that would be keeping him from rejoining the workforce would be ad revenue on his really old videos.



Nice entitlement meme.

Took CGR quite a while to completely kill his channel. Not for a lack of effort, though.

The SG is FPGA-based, so it can create an exact replica of the system's hardware and be 100% compatible.

So it's 100% superfluous. Unless it's like $10 I don't see the point of it.

I thought all those reproduced retro consoles all ran on emulators. I remember some faggot from Retroarch sperging about one particular console that violated muh GPLv3 or something.

[da PAC Nigguh]

Violating the GPL is a just and righteous action.

BASED freedom hater.

He still has a patreon btw.

He still has a patreon btw.

Just because he's not making videos or doing anything at all except shilling his products is no reason for him to stop collecting that sweet sweet patreon welfare!
