It looks like my new retro monitor is on it's way!

It's basically a more retro appropriate screen ratio CRT replacement that you can plug in just about any computer/console.

Great idea but sadly they couldn't go down the OLED route due to no 4:3 aspect ratio OLED panels. Retro gaming shines on OLED thanks to the crazy blacks, colour clarity and no lag.

Yes I've ordered a black version Baggey.   :D

But Qube they're looking at getting the 'unicorn' screen which has ultra low latency. Damn military buying up all those panels lol.   ;)

It's a great idea for retro gamers due to having proper ports on the back and actually looking like a TV 8) I know someone who's gonna just love this for their collection of retro consoles.
