Why the fuck didn't sony just opt to use their proprietary emulation software when it was obviously designed for their hardware? I don't understand. I mean for crying out loud a Raspberry Pi 2 (not 3, nor 3+) at stock speeds, with no cooling on it what-so-ever with the same Emulation core, runs everything better.

and like retroflag, it also has working buttons

Yeah I saw the snes case, not a fan of the system. I original bought a pie after nintendo announced they were canning production on NES classic. I've been sitting on buying a b+, if a playstation case comes out I might, just so I can add some psp titles. they run like shit on a normal B last time I tried.
After I saw all the bad previews for the PS Classic, I started messing around with playstation stuff again. I got a 128GB card on a black friday sale. I could fit the entire US playstation library with room for a few pal/japan exclusives. My only real complaint is I want a better controller. I bought a DS3 from mercari and it was a REALLY GOOD bootleg(swan i think) So it rumbles while I charge it, and as I was playing pac-man world the rumble was going nuts. I also had it shut off a few times during play and it randomly hits left or down. I'd be perfectly okay with a USB wired DS, but I can't find any that don't look like some third party garbage had an orgy in china.
1a725b No.15822942

mainly bought the case for the heatsink tbh Never had an issue with the smaller passive cooling sinks, nor with a fan+small sink combo, but I always wondered why nobody just made a shaped sink for the whole board, seems trivial and the gains you get from such a setup is fairly large (an additional 9cs) I like overhead when overclocking;
PSP has gotten better on the 3 B's with recent updates to the emulators, but you kinda wanna overclock it, I hear the B+ 3 is flawless to near perfect though. but I'm a degenerate with 4 3's and 2 B+'s coming in I still haven't found a decent LCD panel though for some of the projects I want, have no idea how to go about it.
For decent bootleg controllers though, I'm pretty sure there are some japanese companies that do shit like that, I've also heard good things about the 8bitdo controllers.

Umm….hey retard? The PSP was MIPS, the PSClassic is ARM. PS1 emulation on the PSP is in fact more accurate because Sony wasn't as lazy back then and took the time to develop a low-level emulator for it. This is just an ARM box with PCSX ReARMed

Y'know, it's funny to me that they chose to use PCSX ReARMed when there's already an existing PS1 emulator (Mednafen's PS core) that has nearly 99% accuracy for PS1 games and would, as I understand it, also be able to be used in this case with no licensing problems.
Sure, we're talking slightly more performance cost, but if the intent is to create an "authentic" original console experience, wouldn't you want to at least use something that actually recreates the software accurately?

I think the main concern is that, barring absolute newfags to the system that value a sampler pack, pretty much everyone has a bone to pick with the selection, be it the focus on mainstream titles, or not even attempting to include all the mustplays, and the means by which it's playing them don't sound too apt to make it a good hacked piratebox either.
