I forget which nintendo console it is, but emulating’s actually MORE accurate than the console since some ceramic thing is degrading in it. I think its the NES but don’t quote me on it. Was one of the reasons TAS verification was failing on actual hardware when it had previously passed.

SNES. The sound chip slightly degrades, and since the CPU waits to sync with it, the overall timing of the system is affected.

Can’t confirm. Still have a working NES, SNES, and N64 from childhood. Not even 40 yet. My grey hair and wrinkles are still confined to my testicles for the time being.

I finally finished persona 3 reload. I skipped part of the DLC because more dungeons sounded like torture at that point. But otherwise it was great.

I started playing blue prince and then, after a few hours, realized the name was a play on words for blueprints. Doh. It’s been interesting. I am kind of getting a bit tired of the RNG of filling out the house, but I’m getting enough progress made to keep me going.

I’ve also been playing the oblivion remake, and it’s been a lot of fun! It’s like the ratatouille meme while playing. It’s nice. Oddly cozy

Yes but HDMI on N64 pls

ragebutt,

There are hdmi mods for basically all pre hdmi consoles including n64 but they tend to be fairly pricey

N64 has pixelfx retrogem which has 2 models for 100 and 190 dollars, the more expensive model has 4k and additional scalers, the cheaper model is 720p

N64advanced v2 is open source, 4k output, and pricing depends on the group buy you can get in, 150-250

Highspeedido is on AliExpress, 720p output, and is 40-50

There’s also a few that aren’t sold anymore that you can sometimes find on ebay for $$$

My current solution is checking Switch games out of the library.

Buy ~25 games new when they come out for the N64. Amortize that out over the next 25-30 years. Thus spending $50 a year playing N64 games.

Is this how accounting works?

Panel 3, that’s me right there.

Yes, I have several working controllers. Including a couple of spares, unused, still sealed.

PaintedSnail,

Lucky. I have my PS3, and I’m having a horrible time finding decent replacement controllers. You can’t use the new DualShocks, and compatible controllers you can buy are built so cheaply they don’t work very well.

For anyone who hasn’t discovered it yet…emulation is so great.

I got a little emulation console for £120 (Retroid Pocket 4 pro, see my post history) 2 months ago and haven’t touched my Steam Deck or gaming PC since. Highly recommended.

The Analogue 3d will ship soon right? I’m worried I will end up with significantly (more) gray hairs before it does…

I will also take a minute to plug Krikizz and their Everdrives. I have the x6 for the snes, gbc, gba, and x7 for n64. They are an excellent piece of kit once you get a proper sd card. Slava Ukraini!

cool nickname for an ursaring too

PalimpsestNavigator,

Sadly, I had to look that up. Ah, Pokémon… the gulf separating me from my generation.

Proposal to change Ursa Major and Ursa Minor to Chonky Bear and Smol Bear.

PalimpsestNavigator,

Incredible. Granted

They should go for it.

The Commodore 64 was the highest selling computer model of all time, until around 2020, because of it’s game library.

SteamOS probably has the best easily accessible game library of all time.

The Commodore 64 taught us that games will carry a personal computer to massive popularity and sales, even if the computer has trade-offs.

I agree with others who have commented that there’s better versions of Linux for the average user.

But I don’t think it matters.

A Steam machine with a cheap keyboard and mouse would be hugely popular this Fall, and would make it’s users fall in love with Linux, in spite of issues - because we all love video games.
