Note:

The color of the item may vary slightly due to photography and different PC monitor, and the size might be slightly errored due to manual measurement. Your kindly understanding would be appreciated.

I've bought one just to use as a decent case for a little Pi project. A few bits, a Dremmel and a steady hand could turn this into something really cool.

Im surprised you can't buy retro console Pi cases. I thought things like that would be all over Aliexpress, but alas not.

You kind of can actually, but they're not replicas. They're more homage stylee.

I've considered buying this, but I think that this deal is potentially a little better looking, although it would need a bit of Dremeling and hot glue.

Just read all these posts to see what people were saying about it and then found out price has gone up to £23+ :angry:

For a silly 13 quid I'm intrigued to see what i will receive and will enjoy pulling it apart to see what is in it. :blush:

~~Hi, Wondering if you ever received and stripped down and can this be powered by usb only thinking of adding to the car for the kids~~
Ignore just seen this was only posted today, I was using the search and came across this deal but did not see the date :blush:

This seems to be it:

A mixture of actual NES games and ROM hacks

The US use a lower voltage in their mains. If you plug this device into a UK socket you'll blow up the console. You can buy power transformers for about £8

Turret to mdekq007

Pretty sure the console is powered by a USB Mini. If you haven't the cable lying around already they're 99p on eBay.

DrJogalog to mdekq007

9 Sep 17 #40

Doubtful. Most 5v USB adapters are designed for dual voltage input. ie. 100~250vac

jamgin to mdekq007

10 Sep 17 #48

The product description says 110-220v so should be no problem for use in UK.
Also you are not plugging AC mains directly into the console so I'm afraid your warning is without factual basis.

Heat !!! Lot cheaper than Nintendo's rip-off price for Nes-mini or Snes-mini.... :kissing_heart:

dozstanford to nihir

9 Sep 17 #11

That's because the games on the NES mini are legal, I'm surprised HUKD even allow this deal as it is tantamount to promoting piracy.

powerbrick to dozstanford

9 Sep 17 #15

Actually you will find it is not.

muckilla to powerbrick

9 Sep 17 #16

Yeah its not it's not listed as a NES on the site just this listing in fact it doesn't even say Nintendo on the system just "entertainment system" if anything its a ES not a NES due to no Nintendo partnership or licencing. Plus it's pretty terrible anyways to use.

dozstanford to powerbrick

9 Sep 17 #28

.. How so ?, my understanding is something isn't abandonware if it's available for sale and I'm pretty confident that some of those games on that list are available to buy digitally on various Nintendo platforms .......

Don't know what the hell you are going on about?

My nes mini has over 600 games on it. :wink:

dozstanford to migavupe

9 Sep 17 #30

Downloading "abandonware" (or indeed pirated content) and trying to sell it are two very different things, the first does not bother me in the slightest, the latter (having been stung a couple of times on fleabay) riles me up.

And my Android box aswell as 1000s more

migavupe to tomdavidrichards

9 Sep 17 #43

The nes only had around 750 games.

kester76 to migavupe

Plus 250 tentacle porn games :heart_eyes:

Yes, Android box plays many platforms

piracy is no reason to delete a deal it seems..... I'll leave you to think about why that might be.

from the pics the pads are old nes style plugs - anyone have any idea if these can be wired into a rasberry pi ? i'd imagine that some cheapass android chip or a pi running an emulator sits at the heart of these anyway so as others have mentioned it'd be great to gut it and build some retro emulator/media box, existing pads being able to be used would be a boon

I can add to the basket but won't show a total in the checkout.

Any pointers? Or is it a sign not to buy lol

No Mario's?

I got one of these and it has actual nintendo games on it.

What's the point of making something look identical to a nes and then not putting Nintendo on it to avoid copyright! Surely the fact that its identical is enough.

not a NES, title misleading

powerbrick to jough

9 Sep 17 #14

How do you know? NES might be an acronym for something else.

bleachedsmiles to powerbrick

9 Sep 17 #26

No expense spent. This will likely blow your home up.

Dabstar to jough

9 Sep 17 #24

Edited the titles to remove NES as a few think it's misleading which was never my intention.

RickDoyle

9 Sep 17 #25

I'd still recommend a Wii with homebrew over this.

pazuzu17

9 Sep 17 #23

Pros - cheap.

Cons - likely to catch on fire, circuit your house and blow up, oh, and the emulation is terrible, etc, etc, etc.

Any idea if the menus are in English?

dozstanford to tek-monkey

9 Sep 17 #6

Just buy a Pi Zero, its more than capable of NES emulation.

thekanester to dozstanford

9 Sep 17 #22

This is worth it even if you just want to scoop out the innards and make it into a Pi emulator.

Dabstar to tek-monkey

9 Sep 17 #7

No idea but I would have thought so.

Analog video only means you will need a TV with an old style analog input or an HDMI converter.

Saw these on eBay before but more. Always put off by lack of UK plug and I'd want to leave plugged in but china safety not the best.

Looks like a standard 5V mini USB connector anyway so there are many alternative power options for very little money. A lot of people probably already have similar adapters for various tech.

Heated just for the price. Probably good for a bit of fun though admittedly its no nes mini. Still at least its cheap and plentiful - Nintendo could learn something there! :wink:

The customer review is brilliant, "Dragonwatcher" has uploaded a few pictures....Always wanted a console to be called Cool Baby :skull_crossbones:
