- Comment on [Lord Frogmire] The Switch 2 is EVIL and I'm Tired of Pretending It's Not 1 day ago:
I’m so tired of the whole discourse. Why is Nintendo “evil” while Sony and Microsoft have been doing the same stuff, and for longer? Don’t even argue, I don’t care anymore. I’m just tired.
I like Switch 2 and I will play games on it. It’s a lot cheaper than upgrading my PC. I don’t play online, and eshop has better prices than Steam in my country. Don’t yuck my yum, and I won’t yuck yours. - Comment on Borderlands 4 boss tells players "please get a refund from Steam if you aren't happy" as Randy Pitchford continues his very public crashout over the FPS's performance woes 1 day ago:
Never heard of the guy before
Lucky you. Randy has a long history of being an insufferable asshole

Demons in Frieren were shown to be irredeemable monsters so many times, people arguing they aren’t are idiots. There’s no benefit of the doubt to be given to them.

I’m in the same boat, haven’t really found anything good to upgrade to that doesn’t cost me a kidney.

It doesn’t really need it, you can just buy and play it, and it got a graphics update a while ago, so to me at least it looks as good as it looked back in 2005 when I first booted it up

When we’re talking game journalism, most of them aren’t even journalists, just 3rd party PR for publishers. Only thing they do is just forward marketing blurbs they receive, rather than journalism.
- Comment on Are PC handhelds like Steam Deck really competitors for Switch 2? 5 months ago:
Haha, I am researching like crazy as well. So far I came to the conclusion that I have 3 options:
- get a Steam Deck
- get a Lenovo Legion Go (more power but less battery life)
- wait and see what will Lenovo Legion Go 2 be like
So far I’m waiting. My current Switch isn’t going anywhere, but going forward I’m not going to spend much on games there.

- Comment on The Switch 2 Rollout Was So Convoluted It Made Us Want A Steam Deck. 5 months ago:
As someone with kids and a Switch, I think I can chime in.
It’s easy to pick up, my kids play some games on it, curiously it’s always in handheld mode, never docked.
The literal only thing that might change when I get a Steam Deck is them not being able to use touch controls. They sometimes prefer them for some games, but I think it’s worth learning to use a controller in the long run. Pretty sure we’ll have both Switch and SD for a while so I don’t think it’s much of a problem.
I’ll miss some games, but in the end I don’t really have that much nostalgia for Nintendo as I grew up with a PC and only consoles I had were a NES knock-off, and a Gameboy Color

IIRC it was only later models that were 4-9 hrs. Release model got 3-5 I think?
They switched (heh) production in later hardware revisions to a more efficient version of the CPU, manufactured with lower nm process. Conveniently it was also to stop easy access to debug pins which were exposed in the OG version, giving easy access to entire system

- Comment on What is your favorite app for Lemmy? Include Platform 6 months ago:
I use sync occasionally, and I found it has some features literally no other app has (or I’m too dumb to find them) like easy instance switching. It’s right there on the main screen, you just click instances, pick a federated instance, and boom, now you’re seeing stuff from that instance. I wish more apps has that.
