Come on Keoni, how much did you pay for it. Flea market? Looks a bit oldish, but who cares when it works, especially if it was a 'goed koop'. :)
-
This pc was a gift and I just put in some extra ram I had lying around (got that for about €1) and my old gfx card. The snes<>printer port adapter was made out of scrap parts. My television was €12, but I already had that. The lcd came with a €10 Pc deal I got two years ago.
-
Aaaawesome! only dutch people can make it happen, really! ;D
-
I especially like the modded SNES gamepad part. :P
-
The great thing about it is that it's just a pin converter. You can plug in a regular snes controller! I want to move it to the front panel of the pc so you can swap out controllers more easily. I got two snes arcade sticks that also work with this. I have not installed MAME yet, but I will do this tomorrow.
-
You should mount it into an arcade booth, that would be pretty cool.
-
Don't have space for that though :( It sits next to my shelves where I have my consoles set up.
-
This is awesome O.O
can you play NES games on the SNES, if not add the NES
Also, N64 :P
-
I can add a NES controller port to it, but it seems a bit pointless to me since the SNES controller has enough buttons. I have a NES, SNES, GBA and Atari2600 emulator on the pc already.
-
I prefer playing NES games with an NES controller because of the more retro-feela nd not too many buttons
-
Meh it's only a matter of wireing up 6 wires, so why not. I might do it tonight.
-
Ahah good old Triniton. Do you know how could I respire the SCART plug? Mine is almost borken

This is awesome, and the super nes controller adapter is a nice touch. The Media PC we have in the living room is set up to do emulation as well. I have a Super NES and NES usb controller for it (though they are copies). They are a bit lighter weight than the originals, but they do the job quite decently. I also have an old usb to N64 adapter, so I can use actual N64 controllers.
-
Added: C64 emulator and hooked up my real 1541 diskdrive via an XM1541 cable. It plugs into the parallel port though. I kind of want to get a pc with 3 parallel ports :P
-
yay, C64 :P
Now add a intel i7 emulator/me hides
-
I need to get an S-video cable cause I think my gfx card can do s-video!
-
Wow, cool setup ! :D I'm personally gonna set up some emus on my multipurpose warmachine and use a PS3 controller. :P

Just out of curiosity, what's in your "warmachine" ?
-
Decently powerful setups can run Dolphin, allowing for the entire Nintendo line aside from the 3DS and Wii U.
-
I prefer playing wii games on my wii with RGB video instead of crappy emulation with sync issues and composite video.

I7 3770k, 16GB RAM, AMD7970. :P

Yeah, my laptop does. It only lags on Sand Ocean in F-Zero but all other tracks run fine (or at least, all tracks I unlocked :P).

Emulation is not crappy. It even allows you to play with 1920x1080 resolution (except if your computer lags too much).

Yeah, yours is a bit better than my laptop: i7 4700MQ, 8GB RAM (can be extended to 32 but useless for now), GeForce GTX 780M.
-
No I mean in my setup it will be crappy and with composite video and sync issues.
-
Yeah, my comp is a real beast. It can run the Twilight Princess for the GC intro full speed (I didn't begin playing yet). :P I've yet to try if I can read my GC games with it (I mean the boot from disc option or even better, dump the games).
I run this stuff in Linux by the way. I just switched to AMD's proprietary drivers so that I can exploit my GPU and run native Linux games without needing Windows (which I only use for Windows games anyway).
Edit : I can't read GC disc in my DVD drive. That was to be expected. :/
Edit 2 : I'm in the process of configuring it to use my DualShock 3 (it'd be better if I could plug a GC controller, but I need an adapter, and the DualShock feels better anyway).
