Have a MiSTER but for Super Nintendo games I picked up the Analogue SuperNT.





Is there a substantial difference between the two?

One plays physical games

I know that, but from a gameplay perspective can you tell much of a difference?

I’m honestly not sure. I think when I picked up the MiSTER it was still early enough that SNES stuff was still being heavily worked on.

miSTer is an open source ecosystem with open source cores.

The SuperNT uses a proprietary core from Analogue.

I fully prefer an open source core I can fix/modify, YMMV.


There's ways to do that with the miSTer as well.

Most don't, just because inconvenient. For most, SRAM savegame dumping is plenty.


True.

MiSTER doesn’t quite have the usability of the Analogue systems.

I use the MiSTER more for computers than consoles.
