They are not worth it.
Seriously? The SNES mini has fantastic RGB output, and this is using an RGB monitor and not some converter.
I can see you did not read (or carefully read) my entire post(s). I gave far more reasons than the filter. Taking that 1 thing I said out of a large amount of detailed context is very disrespectful.
I'm not here to argue. I gave the facts for a reason, so that you can decide. I don't see why this is so hard to understand. What do you want me to do, re-state all the facts on why the SHVC-CPU-01 has the best RGB output and no glitches? No thanks. And by the way, I'm not trying to toot my own horn here, but I've done extensive tests, extensive comparisons, extensive research, with virtually all revisions of the SNES (except for the SNS-CPU-GPM which I don't own) otherwise I would have NEVER made those posts. So if you want inaccurate, problematic substitutes, that's your choice. I'm not interested in debating.

The nearer serious enthusiasts can get to unfiltered video, the more freedom they'll have getting the exact smoothness they want.
I'm not sure if your calling me lazy or un-serious. I stated before that the facts I posted was for purists - ie; those who want to view the games the way they were intended to be viewed. That's where I stand, on the foundation of 100% accuracy. I'm not trying to force anyone to ditch their 1CHIP/Mini/Emulator/Whatever revisions. That's was not my intentions and I made that very clear. They can have the most sharpened, jaggiest, brightest, inaccurate SNES's in the world for all I care. I don't have a problem with that at all.
