Comment on Who buys crazy expensive "new retro" consoles and why?
squaresinger@lemmy.world 6 days agoI have a Wii U too, but I got that thing for €60 back then.
If I would be getting into that right now, I’d just load up CEMU (or other emulators) onto my living room PC. That one also works with Wiimotes and other Bluetooth controllers. It also nicely plays PS1 and PS2 games (haven’t tried anything newer yet). Setting up these emulators was super easy so far.
On the Wii U I don’t have to fuss with emulators, but instead I have to hack the console and fuss with whatever’s the current homebrew solution. (Btw, I should really update some time. I’m sure I am way outdated by now.)

Different strokes I suppose. I don’t have a living room PC and couldn’t get one for CAD 200 + Wii remotes + mayflash dolphinbar.
I first tried emulation on the Rock 5B that I have running Android TV but it did not perform.
