Portable Nes options

Post by nocturnalnerd »

Okay I know about Ben Heck, but I don't want to build one yet. So what are my best options if I would like to play Nes games on the go.

real carts are just hard to do... they are big and clunky. I'm 99% certain there is no NON-homebrew portable NES's... that play carts.

Go emulation man... if you got a PSP, hack it. If you got a DS or GBA, get flash drives. If you don't have either... GET A GP2X!!!

Would it be safe to say if you don't have anything already, the GBA + Flash cart is the cheapest option?

emulation is definitely okay. I can deal with software, I just don't want to have to tear apart a system.

It works beautifully. The only difference is that for videos, you have to tell the video (if you want to watch movies) it will be on a DS.
