well, i went on a binge and started buying a bunch of games that i probably wont put more than a few hours into. granted, got most of them on sale, even got call of duty free with a buy two get one free deal. i paid full price for deus ex to support a quality 3Rd party, but really don't care for it. i've somewhat become a hoarder of games. i'm a collector by nature but at the same time a little embarrassed by my indulgence

Even if you don't care for deus ex,  you will still appreciate the game pad capabilities

Finally some useful features, such as the activity feed now being relevant. You can now upload your clips to the feed and people can "like" them and comment.

 

More stuff detailed in the vid, looking forward to this.

 

 

Update. Hoping Nintendo eventually will allow Dual Gamepads.

 

Very nice collection!

I'm going full in and every amiibo character

With Mario Kart 8 just around the corner, 2014 is shaping up to be quite the 2013 we had hoped for, lol

Wish Wii U had more RAM so the boobs could be bigger. Bummed. 

Nah most collectors just keep a Sony CRT around and the games look amazing on them and have a genuine touch to them that way.  Whoever buys this isn't into collecting and just has to much money to spare. Also since this is not aimed at collectors. Those people can just use emulators.

 

To be quite honest, I have no idea who this is aimed at whatsoever.

 

It's a $500 console for a system that can be readily gotten for $100 with Super Mario Bros 1 through 3...or emulated on just about any electronic device out there. :|

 

But I guess that 1080p SMB3 is just too good to pass up MUST PREORDERALWAYS

 

EDIT: So I read through his pricing,  and...it's hilarious.

 

$49 for any other color besides the White/grey one you see.

$49 (an exclusive pre-orderer price) for HDMI support

$29 for used NES/Famicom controllers, $49 for new

$19 for NES/Famicom Extension cables/HDMI Cable

$29 for Component, Composite, RGB/European SCART, RGB/Japanese SCART, RGB/BNC Cables.

 

This is a hilarious moneygrab right here. Especially considering the RetroDuo is like, what...$60?

The only company that tried, has games selling well?!

 

She should be honored

Although I have defended the Ouya in the past, I will say, it turned out to be a slight disappointment. At least the early adopter console and before it had a reported 700 games on the Ouya.

 

Today I review the Fire TV. I purchased it from Amazon, and when I got it, it already had the Amazon account I used to pay for it registered into the console. What this means is that I didn't have to even type in my credintials. Of course, you can manually type something in as well. But it was still nice of them to do this.

 

The Amazon brand Fire TV controllers were sold out at Amazon, so I purchased two $50 wireless aftermarket "Moga Pro Power" controllers. The build quality on these controllers is nice. I did experience one tiny cosmetic problem though - the player number indicator lights on the controllers always show player 1 with the Fire TV regardless of their true number.

 

A game which turned out to be my favorite on the system was one that I was intially skeptical of - a game called Sev Zero. It took me back to the days when games were a little simpler, back to Halo 1 for the original XBox.

 

Another noteworthy game, a racing game called Asphalt 8, I did seem to notice some choppiness with. Phone hardware like the Fire TV has just isn't very powerful for 3-dimensional racing games, as can be seen by even choppier such games on Ouya.

 

The User Interface of the Fire TV seems nice. I prefer it to the Ouya interface. Overall, the Fire TV feels like a console experience. However, the annoying in-app purchases of many games remind you that many of the games you're playing are phone games.

 

One drawback of the Fire TV is that it only has 5.5GB of free storage space. I filled up half this by installing three games on it - although two of them were the more bloated games, so I feel I can fit 7-8 games using its full memory.

 

Overall, the Fire TV is a middle-of-the-line, you'll-be=impressed-so-long-as-you-keep-low-expectations game player that is also marketed as a video player. I feel like as a game system, it neither offers the commercialism of a big-name console like the PS4, nor the "anything goes, including MS Paint drawings" indie perspective of the Ouya. It's somewhere in between, much like the iPad and the Apple mobile games market. As of now, at least.

 

My overall score: 8.0/10

Mr. Tanaka's actual metroid theme, with proper arrangement. Almost completely forgotten now, and when not, NEVER arranged properly anymore...

The hype train is now taking reservations for Tuesday
