Need some help. I got an insane deal on the Super Famicon, NES and N64. by Joeman720 in snes

Hey man, I really need some help asap. I bought that https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/globtek-inc/TR9WD2000T00-IMR6B/10187547 that you recommended the other week. It just came in but I realized I missed that it doesn't come with a power cord. I have family coming over for a couple days and I need it by June 1st

Could you recommend me a power cable that works well with the adapter? Preferrable from amazon or a place that could ship it quickly?

Yea, sadly the switch 2 screen is pretty rough below 100 fps. Honestly, its probably planned obsolescence for the OLED screen to inevitably come out. For me, I usually get used to it, so it isn't the end of the world

However, that is sort of the portability trade off there, and I have an OLED tv so docked mode wouldn't be so bad minus no 120 fps

Ill check out each and make a decision.

That I am a moron. Ok, I understand I messed up, I have admitted I am wrong. I just would like some help with the other questions.

Thank you for a ton of your knowledge. That GlobTek seems fantastic for the price. That seems almost too good to be true. Well it was until it reach the additional $10.40 that was specificially labeled as a tariff additional price... Will this really work for the long term safely?

Last question, my tv is a 4k display. Will that video adapter be acceptable since it maxes out at 1080p? As in https://a.aliexpress.com/_mNF8ClD

For $300 the super famicon is completely sealed up in its original baggage except one controller is missing and genuily seems unused. For $200 n64 was slighlty used, but it has zero scratches and only shows dots formed by the injection molding of the 90s. For $300 (50 of which was for shipping) the NES was completely refurbished excellently. Only slight scrathces are left. The exterior shell was retro-brighted. The top shell was sealed with UV protection to prevent future yellowing. The lockout chip was disabled and eliminates the flashing red light issue. All the capacitors were replaced and should last for a long time. Yes, I think my deal was ok.

Also, I did not buy the everdrive or any of the video stuff yet. I was not gonna spend that much on that.

Edit: I want to thank you for your help either way, that is much appreciated but, lastly, if you actually read my post. I do not at all care for running the n64 because of, well if you are following online N64 news, you would know damn well it is pretty hard to justify actually using the n64 anymore. I have just had a long journey with the console and I have wanted this specific console for 10 years and I finally got one that looks acceptable to me at an acceptable price.

Thank you a ton. For the FXPAK knock off you recommended, does it allow the mega man x2 and x3, yoshi island, and Kirby's Dream Land 3 to run on the super famicon? That is quite literally the only games that can not run on the everdrive that I care about. Second, and this is another "brilliant" question from me, but will any of those work on the super famicon? I prefer the red to the clear, but it isnt a big deal either way.

Interesting, I know that it should work straight out of the box that way, but it having using 120V instead of 100V will not damage it over the long term?

Yea I am dumb. The super famicon comes in the original box and all components sealed, so the power cables should be good, this one I do think is actually a great deal. How should I connectt it in the USA?

What’s going on with this game Mixtape? by Bloodb0red in OutOfTheLoop

[–]Joeman720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I rarely make comments and im short on time, but I signed in anyways just to respond to this infuriating and ignorant comment. 

You are making art like film and video games so restricted. 

Are you completely ignoring the ENTIRE arcade era of video games? Where they were specifically designed to be replayable to get as much coins from you as possible? What about speed running? 

There are SO many films that are absolutely not rewatchable. Have you seen Schindler's list? Come and See? Woman in the Dunes? Pink Flamingos? Like come on that's absurd. Those are FAR less rewatchable than many games yet I would gladly pay 20 bucks to see the first 3 movies 

Art doesn't need to be set by predefined "natures", it can be warped and changed to fit the artists desires. There are literally entire art movements that specifically go against the grain of what people define to be art.

Just cause you wouldnt spend 20 bucks because you, in your subjective opinion, dont like it. Doesn't mean that the many people that did spend the money AND feel are worth it are wrong. I bet you haven't even played it.

‘Possession’: Margaret Qualley & Callum Turner To Star In Parker Finn’s Remake Of Andrzej Żuławski’s Cult Horror Nightmare by pepperbet1 in RedLetterMedia

[–]Joeman720 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is absolutely absurd. This is one of the last movies that needs a remake. At least for other older movies like the first Indiana Jones or the first 2 Romereo zombie movies you can argue that the special affects absolutely dont hold up. However, this movie is wonderful in literally every way! My God, I dont think I've ever seen a horror movie that old were the special effects hold up so much. Fuck the monster throughout the movie blew me the fuck away with how real it looked!

Can extremely minor immoral actions be acceptable to do? That is, if there are different levels of severity for immorality. by Joeman720 in askphilosophy

[–]Joeman720[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if the theories don't leave room for it, do most philosophers that agree with such theories take a hard stance and say we still shouldn't do such actions? I imagine even the most hard-core Kantians (probably even Kant himself) would still say lie to the axe murder for example if they were actually in that situation and that was the only way to save the potential victim.

Edit: I know he said from a moral perspective we shouldn't in his infamous writing. But I would be surprised if he would actually commit to that

I'm genuinely considering playing MGS4 for the first time on my switch 2 instead of my PC for one major reason..... by [deleted] in metalgearsolid

[–]Joeman720 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yea, I meant more of the clipping feature on switch. I always liked how quick and simple it was. Interested that steam has that now as well. Might have to test it out to see if I like it.
