I’m so happy to see your daughter stealing your Steam Deck (even if you’re not!) and enjoying some fun games. Have you tried Cassette Beasts? She might enjoy that, it’s my fav of the Pokemon clones!
I’d say it’s inevitable. With Anbernic (arguably the bigger name of them all) saying no more, I’d say they’ll all halt them sooner rather than later.
No problem for those of us in Europe or…anywhere else in the world, but I’m sad for those stuck in America (well, those who voted for a different leader anyway) who have to suffer.
There’s a big, big, big community for those out there! So many options for doing so, and even custom cabinets that have been made to make displaying them easier, too!
I had an original V1 which I had the jig/payload method for, and I’ve had a couple of OLEDs which I micro-soldered the chips onto. But after selling all mine off long ago (I preferred to emulate the games on my Steam Deck after getting it!), I picked up a cheap V2 and chipped it, too!
I love themezer (choosing themes are like a daily fun thing for me to do!)
I got to the System Shock games after Prey (2017), not only am I WAY too young to have been around for them, but it just kinda went past me. But after that spiritual successor I visited the System Shock games, and I love them!
I’m hoping the SS2 is good, because I loved what they did with the first! It’s never meant to be a remake, just a polish of the game itself.
I think they might have finally beaten their Nintendo curse though: one console is a huge success, the next is a fair failure. The Switch 2 will be a winner, but there’s no way it can be the same cultural phenomenon that the first was (I’d say)
Thank you for letting me know, from the next post I share I’ll start including links to all the previous installments I’ve made, to make it easier for people to navigate to them. What a strange thing to not be able to find them, I’m sorry!
