Title: Best/Worst Bootleg Consoles?
Post by: Linkrulezall on October 11, 2012, 09:53:00 PM
What do you think the best and worst bootleg consoles are?

Here's mine:

-=Best=-
Vii - Sunplus 16-bit processor and functional motion controls, combined with some pretty good games. Way more than you can say for many other bootleg systems.
Game King - Really good sound and gameplay, and a pretty good proprietary format.

-=Worst=-
PopStation and clones - Downright abysmal games, high-pitched and chirpy electronic beeps and blips for sound, and totally unreliable hardware that requires the unrestrained use of excessive force (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVVssTpOaVI) in order to make it work properly.

Best : GB Boy Colour
It's a Gameboy Colour clone, with a backlight! And it plays pirate games how they should be.

But if you want my best for originals..
Super A'can!
Great original console. I'd get one if they were cheaper. :P

W-W-W-WORST.. N-Joypad :|
I swear mine's haunted. It's a console crapped out of one of the devils asses for the worst
music hacks of all time.

The Power Joy famiclone is pretty good.  It has good emulation and has been holding up well for the past few years.  The worst that I've experienced is the FC-Portable.  The damn thing broke within a week, and the audio is atrocious.  Imagine hearing a game through the speakers, then hearing it through a camcorder video of that...And that's with headphones on, mind you.

Strictly talking about Famiclone systems:

The best one I've played is probably the Gamezone II 128 in 1. 115 (or something like that) games and is one of the hardware is surprisingly good and well-built. The only big flaw I've noticed is the lack of a cartridge slot. The Gamezone 168 in 1 would probably be better, but I don't own that one.

The worst Famiclone is probably anything DreamGear released. :P

Anything that uses AtGames' miserable excuse of an emulator is also awful.
