    If you are a fan of classic retro gaming with the original Nintendo Entertainment System than here is something that may interest you.

    The retroUSB AVS console plays NES games much better then any of the common emulator consoles available. I have the AVS and its fantastic to be able to play all my original NES games on a HD TV with no problems at all and with a picture and audio that is far better then the original NES with its very old composite video and analog audio. It has a few other great features as well. This is by far the best NES experience I have had with a non Nintendo NES system. If you are looking for a modern NES system this is it!

    I also have an Analogue Super Nt console which is a modernized Super Nintendo system that I will be receiving soon. If it operates as well as I have heard it will be the go to system for playing Super Nintendo games on a HD TV. I will post a quick review on it once I get it in and test it out.

    In addition to all this console hardware I have the EverDrive-N8 and SD2SNES flash cartridges for the NES and SNES coming in soon as well. There are already many great reviews of these flash cartridges so I may be just confirming all the great feedback out there on them once I get them in and test them.

    An additional note about the retroUSB AVS console. This console (and the Analogue Super Nt console for the SNES) represent a new generation of hardware that can play NES and SNES games. Previous consoles ran software which emulated these old consoles and this resulted in glitches and reduced performance in comparison to the original ones. The retroUSB AVS & Analogue Super Nt use a special FPGA processor. This new processor is programmable so it can act as the hardware of the original console. By having this hardware solution you eliminate the inefficiency and glitches of software emulation found on all the previous consoles. Also updates can be easily applied to the FPGA processor as the developers refine the operating instructions it uses. Testing has shown that these new FPGA processor based consoles are superior to software emulation and offer essentially identical performance to the original consoles. You no longer need to invest hundreds of dollars to modify a NES or SNES console to work on current video and audio equipment. These new consoles now offer a cost effective solution with superior performance.

    FYI - For those Sega Genesis fans out there, a FPGA console is in development now by the same people who designed the Analogue Super Nt console for the SNES. With the Analogue Super Nt being a big hit with the retro community I am sure this console will be great. Needless to say I will be buying one once its is available.
