You can have good pixelart on flat screens using shaders but yeah, CRTs are great.

Yeah, that’s very interesting and also a personal preference but to me good scanlines are always appreciated. I picked this 14" and it looks great but I’m curious to try a slightly bigger model to compare the scanlines experience, I’m thinking about a 20" mostly for 480i gen.


Do you have another one to compare? There are a tons of fake-dualshock3 on the market, or maybe it’s just normal usure on that one.


X360 games tend to be better because PS3’s architecture was a nightmare for developers but as pure hardware PS3 is superior, you can see it on quality PS3 exclusives or in the latest games in that gen, when the Cell processor was well known.
As a gamer it make much sense to collect every good game on blurays but many PS3 titles are just bad X360 ports (Bayonetta, BioShock, etc).


PS3 slim/superslim is good to keep also unmodded, it’s very solid and cheap, BDs are nice to collect and they would need a lot of GBs (I’m always pro piracy btw).
Just keep in mind in that gen many games are better on X360, I collect PS3 games if exclusive or if the port is very comparable.
A X360 is a great console to softmod, equally cheap and it cover all the games with superior version without the need to buy DVDs (a bad format to collect in my opinion).


GunForce (Irem) maybe can fit
Real console are perfectly fine if you know what you are doing, also not necessary at all to enjoy a CRT (but suggested).
Just a 14" for 240p games at the moment. I will go for a 20-25“ in the future for 480i.
Maybe you’ll find a converter but consider the costs: you can find cheap used VGA monitors, you can also find raspberry/old PC with analog video output.
This but with 3rd emulators, I found wiiwares not so versatile
14-17 are very good for 240p
Ty! I’m very happy with this little cheap 14" model, my first CRT in adult age. I’m adjusting the geometry to get the best out from it.
I got used Wii+CRT for less then 35€, and ppl say real retrogaming is expensive 🤣
One more for your face
I had your same feeling on Sonic but with the time I started to enjoy its chaos, really an unique platform.


If I’m not wrong you need a sever always on for that (a raspberry or a laptop it’s ok I suppose). Good if you have a slim model but a fat with hdd seems preferable.


No problem thanks


A modded GBA is hard to beat for a native experience without playing with shaders.
I heard that it can be very dangerous to touch inside, use precautions!
