If I want to play these old games, I'll download them onto my PC. I don't really want to play them though. I have the good N64 games, updated versions, on my 3DS.
While there was great effort to select contestants in a way that appeared "inclusive and welcoming", an overrepresentation of LGBTQIA+ compared to statistics. I also noticed that the LGBTQIA+ contestants were creatives types, most likely hoping to get a foot in the door. My point is that they probably wanted a job, and to be really inclusive the show should hire a range of people, not just have them as guests. One was a streamer. Trevor Mcdonald even quipped that he didn't ask for the one contestants CV as the contestant points out they is a content creator and they later notes how they has a low level job in the gaming industry (tester). If E4 were truly inclusive they would give this person an internship, an interview or even a job. I'm not imagining a problem here, just observing they looked like they wanted a job and I hope they offered the contestant a job or at least checked to see whether they had any actual talent. "Diverse representation" is a shallow objective in the often elitist media that is still giving jobs to nephews and partners, and mates from school, instead of people, from all walks of life, with talent.
My metal Anbernic has much better build quality than the Switch, has a D-Pad and they don't hold my game saves to ransom for $20 a year. Considering my Anbernic runs some dingux buggy software with an ancient chip, Nintendo should be embarrassed that I do prefer playing it compared to Switch. Nintendo really should up their game.
A bit expensive for what it does, seeing as most PCs and phones can emulate coming up to everything these days, plus there are classic mini consoles. Heck, even the Switch manages to offer a small selection of old games. At $299 this is definitely for the enthusiast, although, you'd think they'd get the original machines.

Game looks nice but the trust is gone. No thanks.
Re: Polymega Units Are Finally Arriving In The Hands Of Customers
@KillerBOB I suppose, for that money, you could get an old laptop to emulate stuff.

If this is hacked to install games off the internet, it might be worth the money.

Re: Playdate Pre-Order Date Is Confirmed, Shipping Late This Year
It seems like every handheld has a D-Pad these days... Except for Switch.
