Comment on Day 440 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing
MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoThe QOL are definitely what makes it worth it. The only console I prefer OG hardware is probably the Wii and N64, and only because there’s not really a uniform way to capture the controls. Even then, there’s adapters for both controllers (I just don’t have any) and for N64 most games you can work around the controls in some capacity with only a little jank

Yeah it’s a similar story with DS/3DS emulation. You can work with it but games feel better on original hardware. I think there are some dual screen emulation handhelds coming out now though

Ooh, yeah, now that you mention it those are two other consoles i try to avoid emulating. I have a 3DS i still use regularly, but man, it does suck that there’s no comfortable way to play the DS/3DS games emulated on a PC

Yeah my 3ds has broken unfortunately so no good way to experience those games😭 what’s your pc build like? Would love to see your battlestation

My PC isn’t anything special. I was cheap about the case (if i had my way though i wanted to put it in a old Beige PC case). Specwise it’s a Ryzen 7 3700x, 32 GB of DDR4 RAM, and a Radeon RX 7600 XT. It’s enough to run most modern games on Medium without breaking the bank.
I think in total it cost me around 900$? I remember i got the CPU really cheap (one of the pins were bent and i had to straighten it out) and the GPU i got a good deal on too.
