I think of it as the last 6th-gen system since it doesn’t really fit in with the 7th gen HD twins (360, PS3). I have a huge soft spot for both it and the GameCube because they were the post-college and college consoles, respectively, that I played the most with my friends. It’s also the last CRT-friendly console since you can force the Virtual Console games to output at 240p.

I’d highly recommend jailbreaking yours. It’s stupidly easy to do, requiring only a SD card and 10-20 minutes of configuration, very hard to mess up, and unlocks tons of fun features like emulators and ripping games to a hard drive.

The biggest, however, is the ability to shut off the deflicker filter that’s on by default in every game, which makes even component output look like trash. It is a night and day difference.

A good upscaler will also help with a flat panel setup. I recommend RetroTINK products. There’s one for every price level from entry to ultra high-end, and Mike Chi is constantly adding new features through firmware updates. The 5X is a fundamentally different product now than what it was at launch.

Finally, if you really want to go crazy, an internal HDMI mod is available from Electron Shepherd. You have to get your own modder if you don’t want to do it yourself, though. (I used ModzvilleUSA).

Caucasians have a middling prognathic profile and tend to be the thinnest when viewed from the front. Negroes have maximal prognathic jaws and very wide nasal cavities.
