Hnnnnnnnggggggggg. Genesis was the first system we had. Many many hours of Sonic played in my youth.

Genesis was my second, and I still have it. I mostly played NHL and NBA games on it, and those probably won't be on there though.

I still have ours, as well. At least, I think I do. My sister might have it, actually. I think she wanted to play the Animaniacs game, a while back.

$65 is the price point. And there is a portable device as well?

Can you get a classic Atari console? Although, I would be most interested in the Activision games.

I've heard these are essentially emulators - and that they won't do the sound of the original game system justice

I got my wife one so she can play mean bean machine and sonic on it and it sounds fine to me. It was $40 at Dollar General.

Mean Bean Machine. That game was a dodint to beat.

they are saying it's a portable device that plugs into the home base to play on your TV as well. So it's both. A DS and a home consol.

I just feel like it should be a normal console. No more gimmicks.

I honestly think Nintendo has not a clue as far as console gaming goes anymore.

Brother in law got one. Just didn't feel the same. The wireless controllers suck.

I agree with that. We just hooked up the sega controller that I still had and it works fine.

I never thought I'd hear a longing for wired controllers again.

I can notice the delay when using my DS4 playing Rocket League after playing Rocket League on my PC with a wired Logitech F310. I'm just a little bit behind on the PS4 compared to the PC. Is it wireless, or does Windows give a USB device higher priority than the DS4 on the PlayStation?

I have 2 PS4 NHL 17 beta codes if anyone is interested. Beta opens tomorrow.

I'd really like for NHL17 to not be a steaming pile. I rarely play NHL anymore because I have NHL14 for the PS3.

It'd be hard for it to be any worse than NHL16

Could say that about every year on next gen so far. It shouldn't take 3+ years to get a game to where it was on last-gen. That's just inexcusable from the price.

Well, it is made by EA, so.....

Haha I got one too.

If anyone still has extra beta codes I'd take one. I have some vacation time scheduled next week.
