"an elderly customer asked about a TV mahjong game he read about in the papers, so I looked it up: Famicom-tier gfx 2-nin-uchi only mono RCA cables wired, but it runs on 4 AA batteries priced @ ~¥4k (higher elsewhere) I can't in good conscience sell this to an old man in 2020"https://twitter.com/JeF_MAXIMA/status/1266012938910887936 …
the game in question (for ¥7000) https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%82%B9%E3%83%AA%E3%83%BC%E3%82%A2%E3%83%83%E3%83%97-%E5%AE%B6%E5%BA%AD%E7%94%A8%E3%83%86%E3%83%AC%E3%83%93%E3%82%B2%E3%83%BC%E3%83%A0-%E9%BA%BB%E9%9B%80%E3%82%B2%E3%83%BC%E3%83%A0/dp/B003Q41YIY …
I see this buzzing but it honestly seems perfectly adequate for that specific audience (tech-averse old people), especially relative to just how many absurdly overpriced plug&plays exist for hanafuda and whatever else
I get the pain of watching people play these things, though—I wasn't so pumped about the MD Mini bc I needed another way to play all those games again, I was pumped bc it seemed like my days of watching ppl play (& form inaccurate opinions on) MD via ATgames trash would be over
this has gotta be yet another secret famicom on the inside, right?
Looks like it. I'm sure @frankcifaldi could confirm (and probably want to buy one for The Collection)
years ago i got my family a 2600 atgames, the last gen that still had the controller ports. anyhoo it's awful; cheap, shitty wireless + HD, got about a quarter-second input lag. parents love it! said space invaders was just like they remembered (it is a famiclone port on this)
that I can tolerate, it's the "gee I guess these games just sucked" from people who've long forgotten what they originally looked/sounded like that irks me
