Re: Hands On: Polymega Is Shaping Up To Be The Ultimate All-In-One Retro Emulation Box

Find a way to run roms and I'm in. Sadly classic media is at a point where it's all failing and games are no longer playable from the original carts and discs.
I get what they're going for, but roms are just practical. Although it's nice that you can play and backup original media, if you do have it. The individual and extra components for all Cart based systems sounds very costly. Honestly a straight up console-type unabashed emulation box that just does literally everything PS2/GC and earlier would really be ideal.

Hm, first Ive heard of this but its very sleek and interesting. Not sure that I love the modules idea, you'd have to buy alot of those and then have them lying around. I love the interface though and I guess you can copy your actual games/carts/discs to the unit to create your own library, which is cool. Everyone's gonna dbzdbndgnzdgdg, but xan you load roms? If so, then this thing is a beast. If not, then it still would be an awesome way to play some of the old games I have hard copies of but no current-gen system to play them on. (Like Castlevania SOTN and Rondo of Blood on Saturn). Not sure I love paying $250 to do that but for the right customer its a great idea. Didnt see anything in there about GC games, not that there were many worth playing again, but there were a few that i loved.
