Interesting line up on what Gameradar think of their TOP 10 Best Retro Game Console 2021

1) Super Nes Classic
2) Sega Megadrive Mini
3) Playstation Classic( I dont think that should be top 3!)
4) Evercade
5) Retro Bit Super Retro Cade(I never heard of them until now)
6) Atari Flashback 8 Gold Duluxe
7) C64 Mini(I seem think it is bit poor due that you cant type keyboard where FULL C64 MAXI that you can type keyboard)
8 ) Nes Classic
9) Capcom Home Arcade
10) Neo Geo Mini

There is somethings missing in the line up....I think PC Engine Mini Classic should be number 1 where Playstation classic was poor emulation due poor performance!

Mine is.


1:- MISTer FPGA
2:- Mist Fpga
3:- Raspberry Pi v1 , v2 , v3 , v4


:)

I do also have

nes mini , Snes Mini , The C64 full size , turbografx Mini , Megadrive Mini , Playstation Classic ( my lad has that one ) and an Atari flashback that has a lot of the main games missing :( .

looking forward to, if they make them.. N64 Mini , Amiga mini / maxi , ( the teazed silhouette looks like A500 but size wise they should do A600 or A1200 size )

I don't think they will ever do Gamecube or dreamcast mini due to storage size requirements unless they can get cheap 32gb storage.
 
My top 5 retro consoles.

1. Sega Dreamcast
2. OG Xbox
3. Modded Nintendo Wii U (Plays Wii and Gamecube)
4. Xbox 360
5. Modded PS Vita (Play both Vita and PSP Games)
 
Well, my #1 covers a good number of the rest, but for me, it would be:

1. MiSTer FPGA
2. Super NES
3. Genesis/Megadrive
4. NES
5. PS1
6. PS2
7. Gamecube
8. Dreamcast
9. TurboGrafx16/PC Engine
10. CD-i

It's a bit of a weird list, but my MiSTer is way above anything else on that list. It gets nearly all of my retro gaming play these days, and the rest are largely nostalgia (especially for the CD-i, which is objectively not a very good system).
 
1, Anbernic RG351P/M/V
2, Retroid Pocket 2
3, RPi4
4, PC
5, SNES Mini (modded)
6, Playstation Classic (modded)
7, PS4 (because of the retro collections)

I've not included actual retro systems because based on the original article list they were looking at current systems able to run retro games.
 
Gamesradar should probably have done a top 5, given that 10 covers pretty much every one of the mini / classic options available...

Anyway

PlayStation 3 slim
360 slim
PlayStation 2
GameCube
Xbox
 
The Mini Amiga 500? Yeah but the keyboard is static(I wish it was real keyboard like C64 MAX!)
