PAP I Bootleg Console Review

[@Darklordjadow1]

I have since been informed that Sonic Crackers is a real game... kinda. It was an engine and ROM test that indeed was scrapped, and widely seen as a prototype for Knuckles Chaotix. It was so blatantly unfinished it didn't even occur to me to check. I'm sure more will follow.

[@triplestar100]

oh, you're right about "more will follow"! "Dynamite Batman" was the name Sunsoft was gonna give BROTJ before settling on its current name, as well as how some Asian nations know the game as! "Kage" IS the Japanese name for "Shadow Of The Ninja" (kage- and at least you pronounced it correctly, I'll give ya that- is Japanese for shadow); how did Natsume not get sued by Taito, who developed & published "Legend Of Kage" just a few years before, will to me be a mystery for the ages! as for that quip on the GBA's Superman... you can also joke on him going "Injustice" on criminals' asses (I know you played those fighters; don't act like you haven't, LOL)! also @26:25= "Super Mario 14" s original game is named "Taiketsu Yamchamaru 3", it's the 3rd in the "Kid Nikki" series made by R-Type makers Irem, and sadly only came out in Japan. @26:33= "Super Mario 16" is Data East's "Joe & Mac"... sadly I can't tell if that one is #1 or #2, sorry! all in all... "like I said before, Jadow= there is NO existence where you can be safe from ME! (cue the Kefka laughter)"

[@DmitriLeon2000]

Besides that, do you realize that "Sonic 5" and "Somari" are both developed by Hummer Team and are only on the NES/Famicom?

[@tivvy2vs21]

Imo, chaotix is a really fun game, and it has one of the best special stages in the whole series If i remember right, Mario 14 is kid niki 3

Looks like it’s a raspberry pi loaded with emulators. You could make your own for like $60. (Including all the cables the console itself didn’t come with, which might explain the very cheap price) I’m curious what emulator front end they used, the UI kinda looks like one of mednafen’s custom GUIs.

[@tivvy2vs21]

I asked for a raspberry pi for Christmas, and my mum lost it and it's still here somewhere and no one can find it

[@youtube-kit9450]

"Harry Potter and the Siren of Weesin" is actually German. It says "Harry Potter und der Stein der Weisen", which is just "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" in German. All in all, aside from being a fucking fire hazard, this seems perfectly fine for a 25 bucks console, colour me impressed. Even though I'd prefer it to have double or triple the price for not being a fire hazard and having more games work normally personally.

[@ddjsoyenby]

[@KaneLivesInDeath]

I think the reason it heated up so much was because the console itself can't believe the sheer amount of quality games that it managed to fuck up in some way.

I think they were either trying to rip off Playstation TV (the consolized version of PS Vita) or an Anrdoid TV stick. Also, I see some familiar hacks. Most notably: -Some games developed by Waixing (Sonic The Hedgehog/Somari. Also made some games that were on the Lexiboom console. Pretty prolific with the VT02/VT03 Famiclones). -A Mario game that is based on Joe & Mac: Came Ninjas. -Something something... Armadillo. Game Dave covered that clone and it's original game. -A Mario game that was based on one of the Kid Ninja NES games.

Funny review, but I have to make a small correction, cause Kirby Bowl DOES exist! It's what Kirby's Dream Course is called in Japan! It also has an intro that the international versions excised! Likewise, Dynamite Batman is the Japanese name for Return of the Joker. Weird name, but the game is already weird anyway, so it fits! But this IS a weird bootleg console! It actually works in some places! ^-^

[@Takimeko]

I bought a cheapy 3rd party controller for my newly acquired PS2 that looks pretty much identical to the controller this thing comes with, only this has letters while the controller I got had strange interpretations of the shape icons on regular PS controllers. I guess clear blue plastic is just a favorite among knockoff folks.

[@classiccustoms2010]

12:09 Actually, I believe the R.O.B. games can work fine in two-player mode so to speak, although I have no clue if the console itself has proper two-player functionality. Regardless, that is a bit of a ridiculous inclusion even if R.O.B. was used as a badly-disguised second player for the games in the first place.

For what it is, I wouldn't count on it surviving too long given its heat issues. If it heats up considerably even when not switched on, there's a good chance that the heat is slowly but surely damaging the components until the point where it won't be able to function after a while. Convenient though systems like this may be for the handful of games it does play well, I say if you're going to play an emulated version that's not from an official release, you might as well put in the little extra effort and find better hardware to hack or just use a computer, and go find the ROMs of your own accord. You have a SNES Classic, and people have hacked those to play so much more than what comes included. I bought a crappy PS1 Classic specifically so that I could do the same, and run a better tuned emulator for the games while I was at it. But then, we wouldn't get reviews of silly bootlegs like this, so...

[@Darklordjadow1]

Yeah, I unplug it the second that I'm finished using it, but I'm still not confident on it lasting too long if it were used heavily. Still an interesting curiosity though

More precisely, I'm disappointed you chose to mention a specific popular wizarding franchise. As a bisexual man, married to a bisexual woman, with a trans brother and a trans brother-in-law, right now I am forced to be painfully aware of the symbol that wizarding franchise is becoming. It's one of hate. One of bigotry. One that is being used by people who want to see me and my family disappear. If you're not aware of the issues Jesse Gender and Shaun both have incredibly detailed videos about the situation. I encourage you to watch them. I love your content, I've been with you for years, I'm begging you. Add to the pinned comment or in your description a condemnation of the hate that is being spread by coverage of those games. That's all I'm asking. One sentence saying you don't support Rowling or her beliefs and it would mean the world to me. I know you're a good person, and I genuinely believe you're most likely just unaware of what your coverage of something so short and unrelated to the general conversation can do.
