Comment on Day 440 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing
SteakSneak@retrolemmy.com 3 weeks agoYeah 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

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.

Nice, there’s something so appealing about older cases. I wonder how difficult it’d be to fit modern hardware in one though. I want to build myself a decent budget PC one day, currently I’ve got an i7 4790k and gtx 980ti so very old! I don’t do much modern gaming though so im not in need of an urgent upgrade. I’ve also got a small form factor pc in my living room for emulation. It’s got a ryzen 5 pro 2400ge in it and I’m surprised how much it can actually run. Managed to get some switch games running on it🫨
