Just be selective with the ROMs you add, loading up the entire console library is overwhelming for sure but it doesn't have to be that way.

Have fond memories of those games from a 2002 holiday to Tenerife! Would like to grab a cart of each, even if they're just poorly translated Telefang games.Last edited by speedlolita; 25-08-2020, 08:24.

My three year-old is the one who would rather play either Super Mario Kart or Mario Kart 8 Deluxe because we have those in the house, with pictures. Even better, he knows how to put them in. He's also digging WildTrax at the minute.
It's not just down to a list of ROMz being overwhelming. More that it's still very nice, in a way, to dig out the physical game and get it booted. It's nice seeing my boy get into that through absolutely no persuasion by myself. te+ r0Mz just don't exist to him at all.
I think the first thing I need sorting is an SD2SNES, followed by a MiSTer. That way my SFC won't be totally redundant. After that I can maybe collect the best carts for fun whenever money starts coming back in.Last edited by dataDave; 25-08-2020, 08:45.

They were crap when you could pick them up for £30 out of simple curiosity. Hundreds of pounds each on relatively common MD/SFC/PCE games? Is everyone earning a fortune these days?
