Well, never mind. Ordered a 1070 from Newegg. May SLI someday, but a 1070 should be plenty for the moment.

Oh come on you should have just found 2 1080's. Then you could have a massive surround of 4k screens and call it a day.

Child's play. Infiltrate nVidia and steal 2 1080ti prototypes. Water cool and overclock.

How old school cassette tape drives worked.

This is pretty amazing, especially around the 8 minute mark where he plays a "sound" of a game program from an iPhone and imports the game/program into the system to play it.

I think I need help. I bought 2 Corsair 480gb SSDs so I could run them in RAID 0, because apparently my ADATA SX900 wasn't fast enough.

The console will have suspend points in every game, so you’ll never lose progress or have to fiddle about with passwords. Due to the size of the device, it’s highly unlikely that the NES Classic will support cartridges, so you’re probably not going to be able to expand the library further.

That's pretty sweet. I wouldn't mind getting one. Too bad it doesn't have Contra on it.

I saw your tweet about that, I'll be buying one. I'm sure my brother will also.

While I love the idea of this I don't like that it won't play old carts so you're stuck with the games it comes with, thought there are some great games listed.
Has anyone had any experience with a raspberry pi? Or whatever it's called?
I have way too many systems and games with a huge backlog but I can't resist, it's a sickness

Holy ****!

I had one and lost it somewhere in the move from Mississippi. Pissed me off. It still worked with the games we had. I'm definitely getting one.

I've gotten DEEP back into Elder Scrolls Oblivion the past few days, heavily modded. I forgot how much better this game was than Skyrim.

We'll definitely be getting one of these. Nintendo is Making Gaming Great Again!

Hadn't really thought of Nintendo as Trumpers. But whatever.

 

[Speedybruin4]

It's also missing Paperboy and Duck Hunt ( I know there are issues with the original zapper on non tube tvs, but it would be nice to see them figure something out).

finally bored with CS:GO, can't wait for Battlefield One to release.
