Pandora: Emulation Fun with Retrode, joypad and TV Out

[nabz32x]

which version of picodrive are you using in this video? Because TV-out dosen´t work for me with this awesome emulator

@EvilDragon1717

On the pandora, say you wanted to play a multilayer game on an emauletar on the TV with the TV Output while the first player uses the pandoraand the second player uses a USB Joypad. Is that possible?

Oh man, I never realized Sonic ran that slowly in Europe... >.> I imagine they changed this in Sonic 2? I have a PAL sonic 2 cart which seems to play fine on my American Genesis but it runs just as fast as normal!

[jochem1996]

where can you buy these pandora's?

[pengywengyman]

I could bring this thing to a hotel and basically have 5 or 6 generations of game consoles with me... In my freaking pocket.

[binnyhur]

And how about the new MMO games?

This looks totally cool. There seem to be so many options and capabilities.

Will it eventually be able to run Microsoft Office?

[younghifi]

@binnyhur Nope and nope. Well, maaaaybe (for both), with WINE and some old versions of software, but not very likely IMHO.

[ArsonistInUrFirewall]

@binnyhur no but libreoffice, which is better anyway.

It's like the Pandora transformed from a portable into a desktopcomputer/retro game console that actually plays your old game carts! Can you get a Retrode for TG16, Atari, Vectrex and colecovision. because that would be incredibly convenient for people who have a phobia over ROMZ and their varying legality.

[JSBasss]

@TheRealAlpha2 Basic TG16 and VCS2600 support is possible through plug-in adapters, see retrode.org.

[Amidity]

Finally, we can play Genesis on a TV with a controller!

But seriously, that's some pretty awesome stuff going on, even if it's not incredibly practical. Then again, most emulation is not incredibly practical.

nen bisschen nerdig sieht das schon aus..... aber ein glück dass ich einer bin, dann ists nicht so schlimm xDD

[mangabuddy]

Oh god, I own that awful Hama controller as well...

[EvilDragon1717]

@mangabuddy

Yeah :) It was the only thing I could get cheap ;)

Usually, I only play console games so I had no USB Joypad ;)

[ArsonistInUrFirewall]

@EvilDragon1717

What consoles do you play?

Most current consoles have a usb joy-pad.

[peinwithoutlove0125]

DISCLAIMER; some good coffee is not included with your pandora,

though it is availible at other retial stores like starbucks,etc

[wesman6960]

[JSBasss]

Hey, Werbung! :) Dankeschön...

[sehs333]

I love Quackshot, one of the best classical platformers IMHO

[DATAFRAMEC]

Der gute 9,99€ USB Controller von Hama.

[tavin15]

now I stopped thinking I'd rather use my money on a netbook than a pandora.

[RangerDK21]

@tavin15 yes, but netbooks don't have so many hours of run and not low weight :D

[trevsweb]

now for some coffee!!! :D

[remerer]

Thank you so much.

[delet0]
