It looks really natty, 2 authentic controllers, HDMI output, childhood in a box, StarFox 2, running at 60Hz, it will work first time, no faffing around trying to set up emulator, limited edition, collectible, etc. etc.

Is this worth getting?
Surely a gimmick.

Wish it was a gimmick but a certain game is worth more than double the price

It seems Tesco is taking the payment straight away. Can you guys confirm you're charged now instead of on shipment day?
Marcoos to MarkoDeeJay

Tesco always charge immediately

yes I wonder what the interest is on £700,000 for 3 months,if I was Tesco I would take your cash in advance as well.

What about the previous pre-orders? I've read about cancellations... can this happen with Tesco, and why?
jayjay266 to MarkoDeeJay

I believe it was just for latecomers for yesterday's allocation. They seem to have more allocated now so taking more orders? Unless it's another mistake.
andrewperkins00 to MarkoDeeJay

Can happen with any retailer, come release if the likes of Amazon/Game/Smyths etc don't receive as many as they were expecting then there will be more cancelled orders on their way.

Whats the appeal of these when you can just use an emulator for free on a pc, laptop or phone?
Discotech to steslatt
5 Jul 172#35
So you can experience gaming in the early 90's, for added effect go to your local tip to find a thrown out CRT tv for true SCART experience

Where to start?...
It looks really natty, 2 authentic controllers, HDMI output, childhood in a box, StarFox 2, running at 60Hz, it will work first time, no faffing around trying to set up emulator, limited edition, collectible, etc. etc.

All emulators lag.
It's worse when plugged into a modern TV.
So if you want to play Mario World on a big screen this is probably the smartest way.
That and it's sexy as fup.

I need your interest rates, at boe base rate compound interest on 700,000 for 3 months is around 438 according to an online calc I just used. I assume Phoenix was just mocking the abysmal interest rates we currently have

<3 the title
I managed to get one when this was posted, thanks for posting - and thanks to the person who suggested setting up an alert for 'SNES' on HUKD - helped me today!
Tesco stock alerts are useless btw I set an alert up but didn't get notified about this stock, can only rely on HUKD :wink:
Worried about it getting cancelled now :neutral_face:

Well done you, ruining it for other people who might want one just to make a bit of cash, very desperate you must be.

Really annoys me as well. I was really lucky to pick up a pre-order but a lot of people have missed out and wont have the opportunity to purchase one. Then you have these scalpers managing to pick up several pre-orders that could have gone to other people just for quick £££

Ordered - then Tesco Cancelled!!! Livid - I phoned them and they said if no stock can't honor !! I said "preorder so you won't have stock" - they should have kept my order for when more comes in as they seem to release them daily. I'll never get one at this rate - no sufre I would trust Tesco as they may cancel further down the line when people definately can't get another.

I don't agree with that statement, maybe you have had issues but I've not, even with Playstation emulators most games run fine.
