Nice article @Damo. I just recently got the PixelFX Gem HDMI mod fitted by Oldskool Consoles who did a splendid job. I have an NSO N64 controller which I connect wirelessly with a Blueretro adapter (it occasionally briefly disconnects 😶). An Everdrive X5 might be my next move - seems better value than the X7. All a bit of a money sink 😂
@-wc- I don’t have these devices but I saw a YouTube video that pointed out the previous model could be upgraded with Garlic OS which is apparently much better.
I did get the Neo Geo Mini International last year, but haven't had a great deal to time to play it. I am tempted by a proper arcade stick for Switch and would like to use one with the Mini so this does sound interesting. I had decided to try the 8bitDo one but it doesn't seem available now. I have seen the Hori and Mayflash options. I have Magic-NS and 8bitdo adapters. Off topic I know, but what stick would folks recommend?
Great review, thanks. I note the pricing on the International Edition has got keener since release, and even since I placed my order after I noticed the first drop. Those bundles are quite good. wonders what the Mayflash Controller adapter is...
Oh, that's what it is. Possibly a good alternative to me buying a second Neo Geo controller pad... assuming it works with the WiiUPro/SwitchPro/8bitdo pads.
@sword_9mm @gatorboi352 ...yes, honestly I hadn't heard of the 32X. And I'm definitely old enough that I should have! I guess growing up the the UK at that time my gaming was more home computer focused (Acorn, PC) and I didn't have much exposure to consoles. Still, I'm a bit embarassed of my ignorance...
