Pa> I totally agree.. and I'm even feeling like... Nintendo; regular NES 8-bit
Pa> doesn't feel perfect!! However, I am using a keyboard right now as I wait
Pa> for an xbox wireless reciever for xbox 360 remotes... so I'll try it out
Pa> when I have regular controllers and all - and it better function.


I have a USB SNES controller and that works great. For newer stuff I use a PS4 controller.

I still need to get the PS4 controller working right with MAME so I can use both sticks in SMASH TV.

Pa> I wonder what box, as cheap as possible and hopefully smaller than a
Pa> normal console, will run everything up to N64 (I know, I know... but at
Pa> least run it GOOD ENOUGH..), Dreamcast and others all in one system. I
Pa> want to create an emulation box to be done with it-- one box, all my
Pa> systems up to N64 and I can stop working on it. :P

Pa> a NUC? An ODRIOD? Hmmmm...
Pa> My RPi 4 is a 1GB version - I guess I could take it up to the 4GB version
Pa> before I write em off. They do so much other stuff, I don't mind ordering
Pa> more of them.

I have the 4GB version, it doesn't make a difference.  The problem with the N64 Emulation stuff is due to graphics processing.  The RPi 4's GPU is a bit better than the 3 (as it can do 4k), but it's still not up to snuff, apparently.
