Intec, too blury even for NES?!?!

Post by TitaniumHamster »

I need some advice.

Are regular run-o-the-mill Intec, Interact, and other sub-Sony screens too blurry for a 8 bit system like the nes? I'm planning a NESp (missing a cart slot) which would ditch the expensive Psone screen and use an easier to find and cheaper intec PS2 or gamecube screen.

I was hoping I could even out its high power consumption with a Super Joy IV's low intake.


Any thoughts?

I have never really had any problems with blurryness in NES games, even on the lousiest of TV or LCD screens, except games with small fonts. Final Fatasy is OK to read if you don't play for too long, but games with small fonts, such as Overlord are almost impossible to read. Besides, does it matter if you can see Mario's beard in all its blocky pixelated glory? A little blur doesn't hurt anything, from my experience. If you were going a PS2 or a Game Cube or an Xbox 360 or something you might need a better screen.
Emulation isn't accurate. There is no substitute for real hardware!

My interact has very good quality, but yes Small font really hurts my eyes, and gives me a headache.
