I love the WiiU gamepad!That fucking controller is a curse on that console. Most will break over time and there is nothing to use for a replacement.
I'll be getting a Wii just to get the Gamecube games back up and running....Not sure if I want to get the Wii U with its weird display controller
Wii U will output 480p over HDMI, so this is the best solution for a modern TV, even if 480p will still look pretty meh in any case.Note however that GameCube games look better on the GameCube than the Wii (if you can find GameCube component cables, or at least RGB SCART). The Wii outputs an inferior image.

So basically get a Wii U, without it's fancy controller? Question is I imported games like F-Zero and Metal Gear (at the time) and had to use a special disk in order for them to be played on my console....will I still be able to play imported games on the Wii U?Wii U will output 480p over HDMI, so this is the best solution for a modern TV, even if 480p will still look pretty meh in any case.
Yes, you have to softmod it but otherwise the console is BC and Gamecube games will run as expected, so it might be of interest, this is why I shared the information.Yes, but we were talking about playing GameCube games, which the Wii U can't do (officially).
No, you will not be able to use your physical games. You will have to use isos on Wii U. You cannot get a Wii U without the Gamepad, it is required for the console to work. But you can also get a Pro Controller and play exclusively with the Pro Controller.So basically get a Wii U, without it's fancy controller?

Gah yeah I just got a ps2 and holy crap. I didn’t realize how ahead Xbox was with 480p support. Got a ps2 and hooked it up to my LG CX and my GOODNESS the interlacing looks terrible. Made me look around for a CRT but due to space constraints and prices I just can’t swing it unless one falls into my lap for almost nothing. I’ve had so many opportunities in the past to grab a crt but never did I think I’d actually want one again. LolI had the RetroTink 5x with LGC1. Interlaced games were “tolerable” compared to CRT. Some games fared better than others. PS2 games with native interlace filter look like shit.
I sold my RetroTink for more than I paid and bought a few CRTs. Currently using JVC 27” and it blows the RetroTink away for 480i.
Well I am looking for the most hassle free option, seeing as what all went down with Xbox and Dolphin, and the fact that I have no plans of getting a new PC anytime soon...Yes, you have to softmod it but otherwise the console is BC and Gamecube games will run as expected, so it might be of interest, this is why I shared the information.

Not saying that this is the best option for you, but I personally found that it was for me.
Well I find the Wii U to be the best console out there to softmod it and play pretty much any 8/16 bits console you want, you also get handheld gaming in perfect condition up to the GBA (which looks awesome on the Gamepad by the way). And the console natively plays Wii and GC games.Well I am looking for the most hassle free option, seeing as what all went down with Xbox and Dolphin, and the fact that I have no plans of getting a new PC anytime soon...
I found it a pain in the.......when Dolphin was running on the Series X much before the ban, it was nowhere near as straight-forward as what it showed on the videos, Wave Race, seemed to have a "jumpy" display so the screen wouldn't stay stable, I'd have the files on a USB drive and yet the Dolphin emulator couldn't recognise them despite the fact that I had formatted the USB correctly etc...Well I find the Wii U to be the best console out there to softmod it and play pretty much any 8/16 bits console you want, you also get handheld gaming in perfect condition up to the GBA (which looks awesome on the Gamepad by the way).

There is some work involved into softmodding the console, obviously. And games won't look as good as with Dolphin, which improves visuals a lot. But you will able to play on the Gamepad, that's a nice plus. So it's up to you.
That's your typical emulators/softmodding experience. If you don't want/like to take the time to make things work properly, then this won't be a good experience. You can do a lot, but it requires time to setup.I found it a pain in the.......when Dolphin was running on the Series X much before the ban, it was nowhere near as straight-forward as what it showed on the videos, Wave Race, seemed to have a "jumpy" display so the screen wouldn't stay stable, I'd have the files on a USB drive and yet the Dolphin emulator couldn't recognise them despite the fact that I had formatted the USB correctly etc...
Get a Dreamcast a VGA Box and a CRT TV/Monitor.
On the Xbox side pretty much everything worthwhile is backwards compatible.
Retroarch is amazing considering the range of platforms it emulates, and it also has HDR CRT shaders like Retroink 4K, but the standalone Dolphin emulator is much more reliable than the Dolphin CORE found in Retroarch.I found it a pain in the.......when Dolphin was running on the Series X much before the ban, it was nowhere near as straight-forward as what it showed on the videos, Wave Race, seemed to have a "jumpy" display so the screen wouldn't stay stable, I'd have the files on a USB drive and yet the Dolphin emulator couldn't recognise them despite the fact that I had formatted the USB correctly etc...
Which are the better ones?
I'm talking graphics, and how stuff will look on my C1 - between PS2 gen consoles and PS3 gen consoles... Are the older XBOX's worth it?
I had 3 360's back in the day then I got the PS3 after those RROD, if I remember correctly those consoles were pretty much the same right?
So my question is, do I go full Playstation or is the Xbox a better multiplatform player?
I might just end up getting a Wii for Cube purposes, much less messing around with anything config related..Retroarch is amazing considering the range of platforms it emulates, and it also has HDR CRT shaders like Retroink 4K, but the standalone Dolphin emulator is much more reliable than the Dolphin CORE found in Retroarch.
