I figured the 2004 release as the PS2 slim turned the tables again, but that was still before the Wii came out in 2006. It’s possible that story only counted the original PS2 and this chart counts both, though.
Great review! And wow, this thing looks fantastic. After using a horizontal retro emulator, I wasn’t sure if I would ever want a vertical one again. Horizontal just immediately felt so much more comfortable for me. But this one definitely looks tempting. Also, the vertical handheld I have, a Miyoo mini, is really small, so maybe that’s part of my ergonomics problem.
I’ve consistently refused to buy in to Game Pass. I still buy physical games where available. If it’s only digital, I’ll get the Steam version for my Steam Deck.
Um… you need to sell that Mac and build a computer with DDR4 and maybe a 40 Series NVIDIA GPU (so as to not pay the high prices on both fronts), slap Linux on it (I’d recommend Mint or Pop_OS!), and learn how to set it up for gaming. That’s stupid otherwise.
That screen looks incredible. I’d love to have something like this, I just can’t really justify it to myself. My phone already will play pretty much anything I want to emulate, the only hassle is needing to lug a controller around (one day I’ll buy one of those backbone controllers or something).
Still, as a lover of tech and games, this kind of product speaks to me. I just WANT it. I don’t need it.
Oh I know what you mean! There’s something nice and…IDK self-contained when you have something like this. It’s so well made (Anbernic’s buttons are a lovely thing), but the screen is the shining star here. I love that its 4:3 and forced me to focus on older systems.
The most I’ve played have been Nintendo’s old Game Boy games! Oh and PS1. I’m sure there will be sales with the January discounts coming on Aliexpress, if you do get tempted though!
How do you feel about it running android instead of whatever version of linux like the other handhelds they offer? I have been looking at the rg35xx Pro. I currently have an original rg35xx from before the chip upgrade.
It has pros and cons I love how Linux has SO many options, and community builds are almost endless. But then again, Android gives you so many advantages. Emulation is a breeze, and if you adopt a front-end like Beacon, it can launch straight into that.
Android made me download a ton of 4:3 cartoons (looked amazing on the screen!), listen to music, and emulators are so very easy to use on there.
I think it’ll come down to preference, but to me Android is an asset on this one. Thinking of GameHub Lite, for example.
Tried it out and didn’t see a point. Everything in the ocean is dangerous and you had no objectives.
So you could just stay on your ship forever.
I like to think I won the game that way
Edit: seems like people didn’t like my attempted to be funny comment about the game unfortunately not being my style. IMO that’s what we should have in gaming though, people going out of their comfort zone and trying many genres. I doubted I would like hades much but it became one of my all time favourites.
The point is to escape the planet. Its one of the scariest adventure games I’ve played before, super cool. Ive heard some people have gotten over underwater fears playing it too because of how strong the emotional reaction can be.
It counts the keyboard taps & cursor clicks (optional) that you make, and your desktop pet cat taps whenever you type/click. As a reward for your tippity tappity productivity, you periodically get random cat costumes and skins. You can also buy/sell the costumes & reskins on the steam community marketplace.
It doesn’t work on Linux for me (mint btw), but I use it on my school laptop
I’m not sure how segregation/listening of inputs works between software in Linux, but if there’s a way around it to get bongo cat to work… 👉👈
X11 lets any window constantly monitor keyboard input in the background, but in Wayland, only the active foreground window can by default. I unfortunately don’t know of a trivial workaround to allow that currently.
It may indeed be repetitve but Its so satisfying. Yesterday at midnight I told myself I would just sell some more Sweet Smegma and call it a night but next thing I know its 2 AM and it only felt like 10 min.
He goes on to talk about what might have motivated the artist to draw the comic, pointing out that nobody has taken black coffee away from him. Pargin says:
“All that happened is the range of options for other people expanded and he perceived that as persecution […] this is not political, this is a human nature thing. Most people are not satisfied to simply have the option to live their life the way they want. They also want to feel normal […] and see that most people have made the same choice they have made.
Yep and part of that is just letting the things exist and be what they are, even if they aren’t for you.
Let DOOM be what it is for those of us who were the right edgy age at the right time to eat it up. Let the calm games be what they are too, without requiring combat mechanics.
People gotta practice letting go. In general. About literally anything. The correlation I see in my acquaintances between not letting go of trivial shit (including the existence of different types of people that like different things) is stark.
