i don't have that kind of money that's why i wanted to see a video comparison that's all.
That's fine, but what you're suggesting is not reasonable. He doesn't need to send it out for a review before its even in production, nor does he need to compare it to every NES option out there. He's posted videos already showing what it can do.
Someone will surely buy it and compare it in the future. If you want that type of comparsion, you're going to have to wait.
The theoretical ideal NTSC NES pixel aspect ratio is 8:7 or 1.142857...
1024x720 gives a 1.422... AR.
Those are two different measurement types. The first is the pixel shape, the second is the overall screen. On the AVS (and Hi-Def in 720p) the NES pixel is always 3 HDMI pixels tall. At the 4x setting they are 4 HDMI pixels wide. Ignoring all TV scaling that is 1.25:1, not 1.42:1. Still wider than the "theoretical" CRT pixel, but in the wide range of the "measured" CRT pixel.
Once you actually start playing, none of it matters
bunnyboy is there a way to add the 5x zooming thing my life in gaming was talking about to the avs? also if someone wanted to add 1080p to the avs could they? only reason i asked about 1080p is the high def nes has it but not your color palette if it did have that and the 5x zooming i'd buy it in a heartbeat
All I know is the AVS looks a lot better on my LCD TV than the NES does...between that and all the other features like built in four score, Game Genie, online scoreboard ect...has me sold. Don't really care if it is "ONLY 720P". Hell, I probably couldn't tell you the difference anyway.
only reason i asked about 1080p is the high def nes has it
One thing to keep in mind is that the Hi Def NES is a mod. You still need an NES and either install it yourself (including cutting holes in the casing), or pay someone to install it. Bunnyboy's is a whole console in and of itself.
IIRC, he didn't make it 1080p as it would have been cost prohibitive.
Board alone is ~$120 (still not on sale yet). Probably going to have to pay someone $80-$100 to install it on top of that unless you have good soldering/desoldering equipment.
then why is putting 1080p on the avs expensive if it's not on the high def nes? could someone who owns an avs get it modded to do 1080p and also maybe add the 5x scaling?

Thank you for pointing out and reminding me of that distinction. Are you sure about the 1.25:1? Isn't 4 pixels by 3 pixels 1.33:1? Even so, it is within a reasonable stretch.

Try doing a little bit of research.

This thread isnt about that mod though, its about the AVS

This might tell you what you can expect to pay.

Go get that 1080P!
then why is putting 1080p on the avs expensive if it's not on the high def nes?
Bunnyboy explained it on a March 31st 2015 post. Go back to those pages.

That's if you provide them with a working NES (~$70) and ship it to and from them.

Looks like you answered your own question then, didn't ya?

is that how much they are going for nowadays? I am sitting on like 8 of them in my storage unit.

More or less, depending on condition. Might be $60 for a yellowed unit.
bunnyboy what's the rgb values of the avs color palette?
Good god man, take a deep breath and stop spamming this thread!! Like 60 of your 66 posts are in here.
Go take a walk, pet your dog, fold your socks, whatever. Just organize your thoughts...Then come back and put your questions in one post.
