No problem thanks

A modded GBA is hard to beat for a native experience without playing with shaders.

It probably require a Y-cable for external drives that require power. Only og Wii (rev-001) can run gamecube natively.

Oh thanks for this info!
- Comment on Best modded console for 240p RetroArch gaming on CRT? (Wii vs PS2?) 1 week ago:
Thanks for the tips. I know Wii rev001 are the best for this. For PS2 I think it’s safe to use a third-party SATA adapter if you don’t care about online features.

- Comment on Modded Consoles saved my retro gaming experience... 1 month ago:
Modded consoles are the best way to enjoy previous gen games. A CRT in real life, isn’t so espansive, check on facebook marketplace or similar.

I don’t know but most PS3 issues are with the fat version, slim and superslim are suggested.

That’s one of the reasons on why I still collect PS3 retail games, they are cheap to buy (mostly) and in a durable format (bluray).

- Comment on What is the cheapest console to get and collect for that still holds up? 2 months ago:
I really like what the shaders community is doing but these setups-time and expensive retro-hardware makes my jist wanna find the first crt I can in a random vintage market, more faithful and less expansive.
- Comment on What is the cheapest console to get and collect for that still holds up? 2 months ago:
You have options, since you still need different consoles if you are really into videogames, but PS3 is the single most valuable in my opinion:
- It can’t be always decently emulated on PC
- Exclusives still today (mostly japanese)
- Games need space so they are best to buy retail, they are cheap and on bluray (great durability over time)
- You probably already have a 1080p display, so it work well on it.
- You can play movies and cd audio on it, so a great companion to every desktop PC
- Also eventually hackable if you prefer

Yeah I’m also looking for a PS2 with network extension for the drive. But I firstly need to find a CRT, I’m tired to play with shaders to get a decent experience.
