But not Amiga
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It has Dos.

Sounds good, but I often think with these things that I'd just end up being paralyzed by choice.

I've got a few of the mini consoles, and even with 20-30 games (or 42 in the case of the Mega Drive), it's often hard to pick one to actually play

Plus, for me, when it comes to nostalgia, it's all about the ZX Spectrum, then the ST and Amiga...

I used to have the Spectrum 128k +2 , you pop in that tape type up the DOS program , and then the facker would crash after waiting 45 mins for the game to load . What kind of sick programmers deigned these games .?

2nd thoughts it's a piece of shat , packed up working this morning have had it a week .

Ah , 4 player Gauntlet on the Commodore 64. 2 with joysticks 2 sharing the keyboard, those were the days.

I’ve been playing the NES & SNES games on the switch which are decent.

Also having all the emulators info my android box but haven’t used it for a while

I remember borrowing Gauntlet off a friend, for Spectrum. Played it so much over the weekend my hand was hurting by Monday. Great game

Is it correct that you can download any games you want on NES and SNES if you pay the monthly fee ? If so how much is it?

Sort of.

You download the packs of games they have available as a perk for paying the switch online fee.

£17.99 a year

But best handheld emulation machine is either the PSP or PS Vita. Was on the verge of selling my Vita until I hacked it, now has a new lease of life for me

I still play on my Vita every now and again. Most of what I play on there is emulated PS1 games or other old games. The two Capcom collections are really good - I think they were released on PS2.
