Can't remember the exact model, but it's a Samsung 32" one that's 1080p from about 2 years ago.

I'd check but i'm not at home.

To be fair, that's an intentional design choice because of the fact that Minecraft is voxel based.

It's meant to scale down to lower end hardware.

EDIT: Woops, I double posted. Sorry mods.

The shots TA used to spam the thread have two major similarities with emulation shots IMO: the fake scanlines and the sharpness.

And the way you both handled the criticism towards the equipment was surely elitist: criticizing people for talking about/questioning it without owning it, resorting to insults and spamming screen shots (TA only).

But I appreciate the information you shared, thanks.

If you knew anything about the Framemeister, you would know that sharpness can be adjusted. Some people prefer razor sharp pixels (and indeed, this is what a lot of the people who will see capturing videos and screenshots striving for), but if you wanted a slightly "fuzzier" look that is achievable as well.

As soon as the Framemeister was brought up, you began posting immature insults and troll posts like a jealous and ignorant child. Here's a sampling:

But stuff such as this looks just like emulation + LCD IMO:

And so does your most recent captures on youtube with the fake scanlines.

The topic you created has clearly ran its course at this point and I didn't start this frameister discussion, so cool off with your bs and enjoy your derailed thread.

You don't own a frameister, you can't comment here bro.

Exactly my points.
IDK why people take so much offense when we refer to emulation.

But sadly no insult will remove the artifacts nor it will fix the image brightness and contrast. :(

TA posted one post with screenshots. So, who's the one spamming this thread? Seems like it's just you, no one else here has a bone to pick with the Framemeister like you do, other posters have posted plenty of valid, informed criticisms of it.

You can talk about it/question it without owning it just fine. Like I said, there's valid criticisms to be made of it, but you are not making valid criticisms.

Unrelated, but Tower of Power, is your name a reference to Croc? Or is it just a funny name.

It's a reference to people stacking up the Genesis, Sega CD, 32X, sometimes people call that the "Tower of Power." Hence, the avatar with the Altered Beast transformation background ;).

You shouldn't click on the last page of a thread and then tell those involved in recent discussion what's actually being posted.

TA owns a Wondermega and is therefore smarter than the rest of us combined, therefore he should be able how to figure out how to post links, instead of spamming oversized pics which burn through your data plan on a single page.

I had to edit out the display of the first pic of TA's recent posts, to come in at the limite:

It's embrasshing the levels you are getting at, to smash the Snes to bits and make the Mega Drive look utterly amazing .

You need to stop with the inults and just accept that some people have their own views on games and that the Mega Drive and Snes had their plus and minus points .

It some area's its superior and in others it not , why you get so worked up about it I do not know . Software quailty is subjective and I liked the Snes more for the platform games and that's it . I actually liked the Mega CD above the Snes or Mega Drive for its software .

Also Yeah the WonderMega is fab, looks stunning and easily the best looking 16 bit system and yeah... It actually does make each and every Mega Drive and Mega CD games sound better when using the Game DAP mode , but never mind

I get that lag is there, but to me its not a issue at all . It looks stunning when using the Frame (please I know the mobile phones shots aren't the best)

The only issues one will get then is like how a Euro Scart Cable won't work right on a Japanese Saturn , but that's nothing to do with the Frame at all . It's a stunnig unit .

What utter nonsense . I don't know maybe importing stuff to Brazil can be very expensive, who knows and who cares, but owning a Framemister is hardy 'Elitist' or indeed that hard . Anyone can quite easily pick one up from the likes of Amazon Japan or the like. To see you take issue with insults, is irony at its peak (more so after the insults you've leveled at me on in this thread and others) . It's quite clear that not only do you not have the 1st clue what you're talking about when it comes to the Framemister, it's not quite clear you haven't seen one in action at all. It's also quite clear you're a complete and utter hyprocit on so this and so many issues..... and for what .....
All because, you feel the need to try and make the Mega Drive be the best. Pretty lame and Sad really

*Or maybe I'm more of a Mega Drive and SEGA fan that the rest of you combined ?

Your reply has nothing to do with the comments I made about TA's screenshots though, which looked quite sharp.
Again, I never said you couldn't adjust it but you're pushing so hard to look like an expert that I'm willing to concede you whatever claims you'd like I had made just to make you happy.

My first post was a reply to Gogogadget, who never takes things too seriously and it had zero insults. Those came from you and TA right after though. :(
Both TA and you went ape shit about it; oh my God. Actually, you're still mad HAHAHAHAHAHA.

I'm not just "clicking on the last page of the thread" as I posted RIGHT BEFORE HE POSTED those screenshots. I've been following this thread for a while. Sorry, must have missed those shots he posted. Ya, he's usually pretty bad about that, thought maybe somehow he restrained himself here, guess I was wrong. Trust me, I'm no fan of TA, the stuff he posts sometimes is unbelievable. Even then, that many screenshots is relatively low for him.

My point still stands about Barone, though, he's definitely trolling and spamming. And also has a weird chip on his shoulder about the Framemeister. Reeks of jealousy to me.

And if you knew what were talking about and actually used a Framemister for your self, you just might realize that sharpness settings is also dependant on one's Sharpness on the TV settings too (which is up to the user), but never mind.

Is this coming from the person that gets all upset and acts like a child and throws out the insults when anyone dares to find issues with the Mega Drive ? Oh My GOD there's more to life than trying to make the Mega Drive looks better than the Snes :P .
