[MyTurnToPlay]

nice review....crap product.

Good SNES portables are like a jumping elephant...they don't exist.

just my opinion...everyone else is free to throw away their money.

thank you.

So, enlighten me.

If those are your feelings, why is it that you feel compelled to categorically/religiously respond in every iteration of every portable SNES clone thread?

Without diminishing you RIGHT to post ... why not just ignore these threads if you hate clone SNES hardware so much?

Do not feed the troll. It's best for all of us if we simply completely and utterly ignore MyTurnToPlay.

Now back to your regularly scheduled thread with zero replies thus far!

Fair enough. I still need to watch your review, which I can't do at work ... though I will later this evening.

I tried watching it on mute at work with the closed captions on but that's a show in itself. I certainly had trouble understanding your comments about "public pollen" and "student market." After having watched properly, I definitely appreciate the review.

I'll tell ya, the face button problem is a huge problem for me. As an avid Mega Man X player, I've become extremely proficient at rocking my thumb across Y, B, & A. If I can't properly reproduce my play style on this thing then that's a giant black mark. And the D-pad thing is just plain stupid.

[nusilver]

one thing i think we're all forgetting here is that the y + a buttons are farther apart on a real SNES controller than the b + y, x + b, etc (I've got one here in front of me, I'm not making this up!). I also can't think of a situation in which the distance between y + a on the RDP would impede playing any worse than the gap on a real SNES controller.

Anyway. I enjoyed the review. Looking forward to part 2.

[understatement]

I wonder if you could mod or replace the stock D-pad, maybe with one from an official SNES controller. I think the only reason official controllers don’t have that problem is they’re shaped like a top that teeters on the center point.

These things are starting to look a lot more appealing compared to the NES counterparts that I've seen.
