    I know that MLP is just putting this out there butt... It's difficult to imagine what the person who would do this would be like. You bought a Polymega because you wanted to use your original cartridges and Disks but then you said screw it and started buying these things.

      @@user-ie1uk4jr4x Yeah. But why. At that point, it's kinda just a toy. Just load all the ROMs you want to have from a complete set and be done with it. But whatever. To each their own. Polymega is a cumbersome and expensive way of doing less and worse emulation. But if that's what people want, they definitely have the right to pay up front and wait 2 years to get their console.

    Also, speaking of loading one game at a time and the wait time for each, as someone who owned the old Genesis (Super Magic Drive), SNES (Super Magicom/Pro Fighter X/Super Wild Card DX), N64 (Doctor V64), and many GB/GBA/DS copiers, I can appreciate how cool this is.

    I'll never understand how people pay ridiculous amounts of money for these types of systems, that will surely be outdated inside 3 - 4 years, but worse yet, could have bought original hardware for less, and it would actually increase in value over time, unlike............. this thing.
    The pricing for this thing, isn't just idiotic. It's grotesque.

    I am interested in the Polymega but with the price I really can't justify the purchase. Another thing that I can't justify with the purchase is the console coming with the Pentium Celeron processors. Watching your video before you changed the processor was a bad experience that isn't justifiable.

      @@Shawnsteroz I can understand that. I live in the USA and it cost $549.00 for base model and the Deluxe model cost 799.00 in US currency and not to mention taxes and shipping. You can build a gaming PC that you can emulate with for a lot cheaper with better specs then the Polymega.

    I really don’t get why these clone systems are popular. At this point you might as well just emulate on a pc. Stick all your Roms on an external HD and you basically have a physical copy of all your games. I’ve started going full emulation for all systems before ps3/360.

  • @matthenzel8930
    @matthenzel8930 Před 3 měsíci +1

    Nice that it works, but it seems like you'd get burned out on doing this by about game ten. Also, do Everdrive carts work if you set them up to show as the last game loaded into the carts onboard ROM? I used to get Game Genie and AVS cheats working on the N8 by setting it to work as a standalone NES cart based on the last game played. This might also be an option here.

    • @SpectrumReviews

      I install all the TG16 and PCEngine Hucards. One at time with a card that has the connector already on it for usb to your pc via a USB B. Working on Disc Roms Now. I've bought few titles but honestly the prices for NEC games really are up there.

      Wait until they make you pay for those ROMs if and when the online shop ever opens.

    This looks like a pain. For Polymega to gain any traction in the market someone will have to jailbreak it to work with everdrive carts. Not a big enough market for pure media collectors. I have a huge cart library for most systems and would still rather use an Everdrive most of the time.

  • @Turbotobi79
    @Turbotobi79 Před 3 měsíci

    Well, I don't really get it. You buy an Emulation machine to play your original carts and then you buy this to play Roms. I would say rather buying either an Analogue device for a full blown Emulation machine does everything better. I have both to have the best experience on my original games with an FPGA Device and a much more powerful mini PC for all the emulation stuff. I think this one covers an extreme niche between both.
