My brother and I built Magic Console. The idea: you already own the hardware. Every TV, laptop and tablet has a browser, and everyone has a phone. Magic Console connects them. 🎮 How it works (no install) Open magicconsole.app/tv on any screen: smart TV, laptop on HDMI, tablet, projector. Everyone scans the QR code. Your phone becomes the controller: d-pad, buttons, aim stick, dice you shake, even a mic. Pick a game. 105 built-in games for 1–6 players (Ludo, chess, quizzes, bowling, racing, arcade…), with bots for empty seats. 💻 Install the free PC app and your PC becomes the console for the whole house Your PC hosts, every screen plays. Run it on a Windows PC and any TV, tablet or laptop on your Wi-Fi opens its address, with no install on the TVs. Up to 4 screens at once, each running its own game with its own players. Works without internet, on your home network only. Retro Arcade (built-in emulator): add your own game files and play them on the TV with phones as joysticks. Systems: NES, Game Boy / Color / Advance, Master System, PC Engine, Atari 2600/7800, Lynx, Neo Geo Pocket, WonderSwan, Virtual Boy, Nintendo 64, PlayStation. Up to 4 players depending on the system. Save slots plus resume where you left off. Host your own game store: share your homebrew or your family’s game library with your other screens or friends, privately with access keys. Karaoke with your own songs or YouTube, singing through your phone’s mic. 🌍 Online extras (at magicconsole.app) Remote Party: a friend’s TV in another home joins your party and sees the game live. Share a link, and they join. Voice through your phone (works with one earbud), group chat pop-ups, Watch Together. Family controls with a parental PIN. 📱 Android app: join by QR or TV code, or cast to the TV when the TV’s own browser is too slow. Important: we don’t provide any commercial games for the Retro Arcade. You bring your own legally owned game files or free homebrew. The emulators inside are open source. It’s free. We’re two brothers in Hong Kong and would love honest feedback: what worked on your TV, what didn’t, and which games your family played most. 👉 https://magicconsole.app (the Windows app is on the Download page)   submitted by   /u/MagicIbraZ7 [link]   [comments]
