Retro Duo was great for me. The only thing I ever noticed is slight audio distortion in some NES games.

If you can tell the difference in a double blind test, it's not close enough.

My view on clones has always been, if it runs the games without glaring issues, then more power to them. Ill be purchasing some clones in the near future, since I would rather have a throw away console than lugging the legit ones everywhere. My issue is that I play alot of Super Famicom games and it doesnt seem like many of the SNES clones can handle them.

retro duo can supposedly handle SFC games decently. It's PAL games it has trouble with. And I think eventually clones will become as good as the originals. When that happens i may invest in them.

When I have more space I may invest in a clone. I like the idea of the space saved using one console to play 2 or 3 libraries worth of games.

Thanks Amish Samurai. Ill look into it later. If this side job ends up paying out the way it is supposed to Ill probably buy and do a comparison of all the multiconsoles I can purchase. Lets see which ones can handle Gundam Endless Duel and YuYu Hakusho Makyo Toitsusen

Jump back when IBM was the mainstay and clones sneered at. Now look at all the PC IBM clones. :?
Only IBM currently have is 2 vintage keyboards, one on the wife's ATX computer. These used to be in every office in the 80s.

Damn this is one solid keyboard, feels so right!
