I picked up a gamevice a while back and love it. Wish they still made it cause it supports phones with cases.

If you already have a Xbox/PlayStation/Switch controller, you can also use that. There are very cheap mounts you can buy for each of these controllers for ~$10 USD that will allow you to hook up to your phone seated on top of the controller. You might even be able to 3D print a mount too.

It’s not nearly as comfortable as this is (though you could say it is because the controller, itself feels better in the hands, but I’m talking viewing angle) but it’s a lot cheaper and doesn’t require buying a new, dedicated controller.

Not knocking your suggestion, OP. Just providing a secondary alternative too.

PCSX2 supports Retroachievements.

nutbutter,

Sorry, I meant on Android only.

Seconded. Have the Gamesir g8, love it.

TheMinions,

I like mine too. It’s rather heavier than I expected, but still solid.

I mainly use it for emulating games on my phone, along with streaming games from my Xbox.

moistracoon,

Oddly enough just like OP I use it to play fall guys.

kaitco,

That’s what I have and I love it because it feels solid to use. I bought an expensive Backbone because it was marketed pretty well, but it just felt so flimsy that it had to be returned.

I don’t use retro achievements because games are supposed to be fun rather than about checking boxes.

TachyonTele,

I feel the same with modern games. But some of the retro achievements point you to hidden places and secrets, and challenges to complete.
So it’s a little different.

Fades,

You’re doing it wrong then

pixeltree,

Some people find it fun to challenge themselves, and achievements can be fun challenges to do

OP was the one who asked why people don’t use Retroachievements.

pixeltree,

I personally use a PS4 controller with a phone mount. The weight distribution is maybe a bit less comfortable depending on what angle your hold it, but it’s pretty compact and the controller itself is great quality this way.

Like this:

shems,

same setup here! only i’m using a ps5 controller. i actually swapped the clamp for a magsafe car adapter i had lying around, turned out it was the exact same thread size.
the main benefit really is that official controllers (switch pro, xbox, ps, whatever) just feel way better quality-wise. plus you can still use them on pc or the actual console. totally agree on the weight though, you definitely have to adjust the angle depending on how you’re sitting. and yeah it’s technically portable but i wouldn’t pull this out on a train lol, mostly just for the couch at home. and if you already have a controller lying around, the mount is only gonna cost a few bucks, even a used ps4 controller is super cheap.

Tell your cat I love them

mech,

She graciously accepts your adoration.

Do you have coin for that khajiit’s wares?

Is cat sitting upon laptop? And absorbing heat?

mech,

Yes. And it’s very important that the laptop is closed.
She can crash a freshly installed Debian just by sitting on the keyboard.

breakcore,

That is certainly a special skill :)

I love that cats always gravitate towards warm places. And it’s a nice trick to have them close, by placing a laptop on ones desk :)

Your keyboard has more colours than your monitor :-D

mech,

It also cost more.

Yup, though I want to add that SteamLink on android is a step further. I’ve exclusively been playing this way ever since.

You get the convenience of mobile with the power of your desktop, plus most phones have Oled screens these days so even better. Also why I don’t own a Steam Deck, as this is just the better option for portable gaming imo.

If someone else is in the mood for Skyrim but has done everything in it, try out Tainted Grail - Fall of Avalon. It plays like a smaller Oblivion. It really scratched the itch for more Elder Scrolls for me.
