    Those on the back of the box are all outputs... wouldn't work.

    This would work though.

    Before you order it... don't you have an elgato? If so, it can take composite/component as an input and then that would convert it to HDMI.

    It'd be a pain to switch back and forth with all the wires. It's not something I'm looking to get right away. Just was looking at options because the RetroN 5 has HDMI out but getting terrible reviews due to quality of build.

    But an NES was RF output, wasn't it? And that first box took in RF In.

    Not only do I not preorder, I don't even get games Day 1 now. I'll make an exception for Mass Effect 4 but for the most part, I get games either from eBay or wait for a sale.

    SimCity has to be my biggest bust for a game that I have bought ever.........

    Got burned on that one too. The biggest burn on that one is you cannot return it at all.

    I used to pre-order everything on Amazon with the $10 - $20 off. However, that has stopped and the free pre order bonus dlc just isn't worth the risk of getting burned. So, I'm not pre-ordering anything anymore - which sucks for Amazon because that means I'll be buying from Gamestop (or some other brick and mortar retailer).

    Not only have I stopped pre-ordering (with one exception), I may not even be buying games much longer ... I have quite a backlog as it is, and the only game I play right now is NCAA.

    Except for the NCAA part, I agree. I still have 11+ games on 360 to play through, plus a few games on Xb1 to play through.......so I don't bother pre-ordering anymore. I just buy months later when the games are much, much cheaper and I eventually get to them.


    I don't get to play NCAA nearly as much as I'd like to.

    Only pre-orders I do these days are digital downloads so that I can pre-download them and that's only after I've researched them to know I want to play them.

    Yeah the only games I preorder now a days are RPG's that I know I will play and get a shit load of time with.

    Most story driven games, I just wait for Gamefly to reduce them to $15-$20.

    Sounds like me. If I want a game I'll pre-order so that I can pre-download. I don't buy nearly as many games as most of TGT does though.

    Supposedly , M$ got the rights remaster Battle toads. Not sure which classic game they will remake but I hope ti's the first from the nes days. I still haven't ever beat that game. I always get stuck on that speeder / jet ski bike level.
