First Look at M.2 Loader Prototype - Retro Modding News

[@kingcheerio8558]

There actually is a compatibility list being compiled, unfortunately it's nowhere near complete yet.

2 tone smoked and clear NES looks nice

Would really like to see that compatibility chart with boot times. I was literally googling one as you were mentioning the m.2 loader prototype. It should definitely exist! It's worth the time.

The nes Famicom from retro castle was removed because it sold out. I noticed they brought it back and then it sold out again and they took it off. I think they just temporararily removed it because it sold out. I was able to purchase one and I can say the audio and video is as good as an nes rgb or even slightly better at least from my experience. I also have Tim's kit so I can say that they both look pretty similar it terms of quality. It also works beautifully with hd retrovision cables which is a big plus. The console is using new parts with the exception of the original CPU and PPU. Which can have original or clone CPU and ppus. Whether it's a copy of the nes rgb or not is irrelevant as it's twice as expensive and the quantity produced which is not much would never hurt Tim's sales in my opinion! Either way I think its good to have options as there are not enough nes rgb options out there.

GameCube compatibility chart would definitely be useful, especially as we get closer and closer to Perfect GameCube

Cant wait for that m.2 loader!! Really hoping that with the increase of knowledge for PS odes that we'll someday get a cheap way to put one in a PSOne

That RetroCastle VGA famiclone board with RGB has been around closer to a decade. Since every XStation sold comes with two different QSBs for different PlayStation models I hope Picostation can make use of them with the same pinout for the FFC.

The PS2 has a massive spreadsheed with support for what games works with OPL and with what storage method like HDD, SMB, USB, and MX4SIO, the PS3 also has a forum thread on what PS2 games runs well with the PS2 classics built in emulator. So in short, yes, Swiss should have something similar

Hi, there are two types about FC board rebiulding. The first is the video that can use FPGA PPU vga-output, the other is normal to use FC PPU CPU or UMC clones. Both are bigger so that need to use new shell. The video and sound quality is bit better than original new FC with differennt features like 4 controller port, vga with scanlines, etc, but total cost is about usd300 or more. some users also use nesrgb kit on the second board, it works fine.

Thanx for the PS1 Coverage its my favorite, People get turned off because of the early 3D but if you import it's well worth it, Playback on PS2/PS3 kinda sux as long as you use RGB/SCART signal in any way really the 240p is amazing.

If it is a Swiss issue then GC Loader shouldn’t necessarily be affected. Gc Loader recommends the use of it but it is not mandatory. It’s just that there’s no UI for the gc loader like the ever drives.

Would love for the m.2 loader had a lan port

[@erik3371]

Just glue one on? 🤷‍♀️

Iv been saying all the consoles have so much ports to make a no solder no open up hack device. Soldering is risky.
