It's nice to see some retro gaming coverage on this channel. With used cart prices rising across the board, these flash carts are a real life saver for those that prefer to play on original hardware.
3 years into the future and Linus is still dropping things in videos. Love the retro content. Just picked up a SNES off of eBay and a few games, missed my SNES from my teenage years and emulators on a PC screen just didn't have that same feel. Would love to see various retro controllers reviewed for feel and input lag. Have both a Hyperkin and 8bitdo SNES wireless and the button feel is so different, kind of like comparing membrane keyboards to mechanicals, spongy vs springy. Both work well, just feel so different. I highly recommend sticking with the 8bitdo if you prefer a closer feel to the original SNES controller.

I ordered my sd2snes over Black Friday and love it. There are some graphical glitches in some games but for the most part it loads them all quickly. The games it doesn’t support is minimal so you’d get a good amount of fun for the hundreds it does support.
Emulation should be one of your regularly added content to your channel. I love being able to emulate my ps1 and my games at higher resolution.

"Converter" is quite a misleading name for that. It's a cartridge emulator that does emulate some special chips as well. But for $200, it should support super FX at least, as with this price you probably could put a beefy ARM CPU to handle that.

Few things. Input lag is because of the converting of analog to digital with the composite cables. CRT's get rid of that input lag. It also looks like ass because the composite video cable is one of the worst things to use to play your retro games. Consider the framemeister and use RGB Scart cables (which the SNES does support). Also $200 for a flash cart? The hell?

"Input lag is because of the converting of analog to digital with the composite cables. CRT's get rid of that input lag." Composite is analog, that 4 pole 3.5 input he's connecting into is an analog connection, if crt's fixed it why would using the same 'digital composite' cables on a crt not have lag, what you've said doesnt make any sense. The lag is because lcd tv's inherently have some lag from all the image processing and stuff happening behind the scenes, where a crt doesnt, has nothing to do with the leads.
Love the retro stuff, would love to see more on how to get the best picture out of retro gaming systems as none are HDMI ;)

As an owner of the sd2snes it’s totally not the cart. The cart is exactly as if you were using a real cart... The lag comes from both the bluetooth controller (adds a frame or two) and then definitely the TV adds 1-5 frames depending on the settings they’re using.

Matt Baldwin Depends on what tech the controllers use. Newer 8bitdo controllers use 2.4g which are nearly lag free... With the older and much more common Bluetooth controllers you average around 35 to 50 milliseconds (it’s never stable which is also a pain). This vid is from 2 years ago so they would have been using the laggy blue tooth.
Yes i would like more retro content! I loved the sleeper pc video, the one where Linus remade his old pc and this video to! retro content is awesome!
Not only would I like to see you do more videos like this, I would love if you had expanded this one a bit more. The input lag on the wireless controllers would be a topic worth discussing since it really can hinder serious gameplay.

Not to mention stuff like buying an incomplete product and having to update it later, or downright pay for the completion of it (DLCs). Much great stuff can be done with new games, but also the opposite, and I gotta say for example platformers are kinda fading away. There are some great ones yes but... it's all about the very same FPS style now in majority. Like, what else gets called a triple A title nowadays? Race games are one thing where they only tend to get better tho (save rare instances).

You should use a 10-bit linear interpolation current steering digital to analog converter (DAC) and a Gilbert cell mixer to generate an RF amplitude modulated signal directly. The linear interpolation increases the attenuation of the DAC's image components.

I love retrogaming and especially the 16-bit 4th generation console era. I was glad to see this video. I've been following the developments of the SD2SNES since maybe as early as 2012 or 2013 but I'm sure it took awhile for it to mature in development and get to market and for Linus to have time in his schedule to fit it into a video. Better late than never sometimes. I was glad to see this video be featured on the channel and I hope Linus does more about these classic game systems. Hopefully he'll do a video about the Turbo Grafx 16 since I always wanted one. I told a friend of mine that I'd pay him $20 for his even if it stopped working. I love the look of the console with the yellow and orange lettering in North America. That's how cool it is.

sd2snes is actually a lot more than just an EverDrive, 'cause the SNES has so many damned coprocessor chips. The Super EverDrive cart on it's own won't even run Super Mario Kart or Pilotwings (unless you bought a DSP addon for it). Whereas the sd2snes has a pretty beefy (for a flashcart) FPGA and open-source firmware. Hell, there was someone on GitHub working on SuperFX support at one point, but I don't remember if they got any ROMs working on it or not. Yes, the Raspberry Pi option is available, too. Last I checked, a SNES mini is still going to set you back $120. It's hardware is authentic but if you plan on installing extra games on it then you have to watch out for compatibility issues. (SNES mini does *not* run anything close to a cycle-accurate emulator, and it definitely doesn't support some of the more esoteric coprocessors) If you want to run games that crash or glitch out on inaccurate emulators then you'll either need an sd2snes or a fairly powerful desktop to run higan on.

You could also use Everdrive. Same concept, of having a game cart with an SD card that you can pack roms in. That one gives you some of the benefits of emulation though, like save states. Very popular among speedrunners who want to run on original hardware, because it's a pain to practice frame precise tricks without save states, and it's shitty to practice them on emulators because the input lag and other factors are slightly different.
retro consoles and console mods plz !
