So I've finally gotten tired of having 6 different retro system needing to be hooked up to play different games so I wanted to make the switch to having one central console for emulation to clean up some of my clutter.
I don't want to use a PC I'll be hooking them up to a CTR and the main appeal is the ease that the consoles with emulators provide.
I have tired. The results have always been disappointing for one reason or another.
Here's what I want:
Accurate NES/SNES/Genesis emulation, and the ability to use the original controller. I know N64/PS1/Saturn aren't reliable, so I'm not even concerned about them.
That's really it, I just want it to function easily and accurately.
I've been doing some research and here are the conclusions I've come to for each system:
PS3:
I'd can't find to much information on compatibility. The homebrew emulation scene doesn't seem very big, but it does have RetroArch. The possible appealing things about PS3 is that it seems like I could also play PS1 (And PS2 games?) directly off the HDD with CWF as long as I have a model that supports BC. Can anyone confirm this?
Wii:
Also has RetroArch. I just don't know if it's better or not. I've seen people says PS3 is more accurate and such, but without any context or examples.
And supports 240p for NES games.
Xbox:
I've seen the most recommendations for this,, but never really a reason why other then "It has the most emulators". It seems nice that it has multiple emulations for each system which is cool because it increases compatibility if there's a game that doesn't work but it doesn't support 240p. I used to have one a while ago and I remember it being super simple to use.
Anyone have any insight?
