I’m with you for 3DS. Vita was kind of a dead gen for me at the time—what are some of your favorites?

I’ve been replaying Dragon Quest 8 (PS2) on my Steam Deck, and it just fills me with joy. Except for the absolutely bonkers choices they hardcoded for buttons and camera movement. Ah, good times.

I’ve been suspicious that newer production lines for joysticks have been cutting costs in cheaper materials for a while now. I usually replace the joysticks when they drift, but I’m also quite comfortable to taking things apart and fixing them.

I remember my old PS2 controllers never drifted and that was back when I played hard on them every day after school. These days I hardly have time to play during the week, and they regularly go bad within a year or two.

What a horrible parry input!

I only care if the new guy gives me back the content I paid for when the game first came out.

It was even better before they ditched streaming through GeForce Experience or whatever. Moonlight + Sunshine work, but I’ve never felt like there was a good Sunshine configuration tool, and adding games manually has always been too much of a pain for me to bother with.

Would’ve loved if Horizon Zero Dawn on PC came with a manual I could read while it compiled shaders…

I think once I accidentally made a microblog when I meant to start a thread in a magazine? It felt super vague and I basically haven’t bothered making too-level posts since. I just lurk and post snark.

Can’t wait for myself to buy this in a new package with other half-assed Mario ports for $60.

I have no self-control. 😥

Shocked, but thrilled. But also VERY shocked. But in a good way.

I’m considering an Asus ROG Ally. Already have a Steam Deck, but using my GoG library and EGS freebies is awkward, and Xbox GamePass as well. The Ally seems like a good way to get all that natively via Windows, plus a better looking screen than the Deck…

Especially if you can afford GamePass, it’s never been a better time!

I built one of these a couple weekends back and have been blissfully extracting ROMs from my cartridge collection since then. I love it so much, and it’s a really solid design!

I miss Google Wave. It was my preferred way to collaborate with friends for a long time.

Agreed. I never should’ve done that.

I hate that feeling of knowing I need to do something and wanting to start, but actually doing it is like my body and mind are weighed down by concrete.

If not experiencing those things would dramatically make your life better, might go see a psychiatrist about evaluation?

Gotta use the hammer on them lil guys. They hurts the feets if you jomp
