definitely more common now at least in my area. When I was a kid goodwill and value village were charging $40 for an old beat up snes or n64 and that was the whole clothes budget for me and my three siblings.
Friend ended up giving me a gamecube in middle school and that was my first console.
I always thought this game reminded me of Graveyard Keeper, i don’t know much about it other than that though. The way you described it makes it sound fun though
i get that. It’s a lot like Stardew where if you don’t have anything to do the only real option is to wait around, except worse because certain NPCs are tied to certain dates and you can’t skip to the next day really
The modern controller really does suck, I have had atleast 10 and every one died from drift, I might be particularly sensitive to it and I do play souls games hard core so they get their fair use but still under no circumstance under normal use should 10 separate controllers die from the same issue.
I just buy superior 8bitdo, Guilikit and Gamesir third-party controllers that utilize drift-immune hall sensors and work across all platforms with huge internal batteries for sometimes half the price of the original controllers. Maybe Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony will upgrade their pieces of trash one day.
PC, and I used a King Kong 2 on my Switch when I owned one. I no longer do. I also texted it on a Deck(same same), and an Android phone for the hell of it.
I’m not sure about the PS5 controller situation, but I do know they work universally across all of the 7th gen devices.
Sorry, sometimes I forget the current Gen is even a thing considering there aren’t really any memorable games or happenings going on beyond overpriced hardware and live service games.
All good. I guess Sony is the odd one one out when it comes to controllers since they’ve had a touchpad on their controllers for 10+ years now, so I thought I’d ask. 3rd-party XBOX and Switch controllers are a little easier to come up with I imagine
The only ones I have thrown out are the ones I tried to fix, needless to say I am not good at soldering. I plan to fix them one day but that day will probably never happen.
I could believe that the Switch Joycons and the PS5 DualSense have a reason to cost as much as they do if it weren’t for the fact that the Xbox One/Series X controller, which is functionally identical to the 360 controller, which wasn’t that different than the Original Xbox controller, costs the same as the DualSense.
Legend of Donkey Kong: Smell of the Banana was one of my all time favourites of the series. Cries of the Potassium, the sequel to Smell of the Banana, is even better. I honestly really liked how they expanded on the King K. Rool mercenaries who would ambush you just to steal your banana collection but the subplot revolving around Candy Kong turning into a gigantic banana was just weird.
Soldering is probably one of skill that opens up lot of possibility because most of time when dealing with pcbs (most electronic device overall) you have to desolder, replace the component, and solder new part in.
Next step is ID’ing unmarked component and understand datasheet so you know what you’re dealing and how to deal with them.
I grew up poor. What drift? I grew up on mouse and keyboard because a computer was also useful for schoolwork and it’s not like it was a gaming PC anyway, it was really crappy but could play GTA San Andreas at 20 fps.
Keyboard and mouse cost like 5 euros a piece to replace, though I don’t believe I ever needed to replace a keyboard.
Can’t have drift if you don’t have analog controls ¯_(ツ)_/¯ The pain I experienced as a kid was finding a PC controller, working a full day to get the thing working, only to realize it is complete ass, man did I respect console controllers after that.
Oh man I remember that controller. There was a little stick you could screw into the d-pad that was a bit of help for some games, but it was all pain after a while
