Ares Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I have decided to go Old schoole with my portable gaming. I recently bought a used Game Boy advanced SP to play my old games I recently found And I bought a RDP Retro Duo Portable 2.0 Handheld SNES / NES System on ebay. It will let me play old NES and SNES on the go. I will let you know how it plays once it is delivered this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gradejunky Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Looking to get a NES toploader sometime in the future. I hear they almost always play the games without all the mubo-jumbo of the reggie versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yecul Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 The picture quality suffers. A toaster with a replaced 72 pin and a clean game will also work every time. Top loaders are very cool though and I am sure you will enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get top loaders on ebay that have been modded to have AV output... thats what I have and I really enjoy it and as you say never the slightest problem.

Shaven Kev-migration Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Gameboy Advance was the best hand held...I kind of miss it. I have to say I much prefer the graphics on the advance to the poor quality 3D graphics on the DS and its kin. Its like PS1 to maybe early PS2 3D graphics. Not impressed.

spracknetch23 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I still have my GBA with about 20 games. I must admit though, I haven't even turned it on since I got my 3DS a year and a half ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my wife a 3DSXL for her birthday so if I need any 3d gaming I will use her system from now its old school gaming. I had more fun with the older stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even have a few that I already have in cartridge form, but I like the back-lit screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
He11blazer Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I have a Vectrex on its way to me. At last! Been wanting to play one of those for 30 years, no kidding! Will post a pic (assuming it all works). It is Awesome! Love the vector graphics, love the sounds. It came with a (homebrew) 3D headset and everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graffix13 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) And I bought a RDP Retro Duo Portable 2.0 Handheld SNES / NES System on ebay. It will let me play old NES and SNES on the go. I received a SupaBoy (portable SNES player) for my birthday a few weeks ago. So far, so good. I really love it. Trying to hunt down some of my favorite SNES games has been fun. In July, Hyperkin is coming out with the RetroN 5. It plays SNES, NES, Genesis, Gameboy, and Famicon games. It even has a HDMI port. I will be buying one of those for sure!
