Well there’s another reason I’m going to wait to emulate the switch 2.
- Comment on I installed Linux on this 8-inch mini laptop, and it's my new favorite way of computing 5 days ago:
Its very hard to beat the laptop form factor for productivity, but i wish there was more laptops out there with all the ports and hardware features i would like. too bad that some of them are only really available in obscure cyberdecks

I think that people give shows like the walking dead too much shit for having dumb characters when people in real life are far stupider
- Comment on Rust's new jungle update has finally brought me back to it. 1 week ago:
Yeah that can be annoying, but it’s also rust’s greatest strength, no other game can match the intense rush you get during a fight in rust. and for more casual players there is modded servers with more plentify loot.

- Comment on Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk would like to ‘delete all IP law’ | TechCrunch 4 weeks ago:
This is the only thing he’s ever done or said that I agree with, even though his real intentions are obvious. We really do need a complete re-writing of IP law, but not from Elon.
- Comment on Most under-utilized consoles? 4 weeks ago:
Metroid Prime Hunters and Moon are both great examples of what the DS is capable of, but they both struggle to be fun as videogames because of the stylish camera controls, what I mean by under-utilized is that a significant portion of the DS library Is 2d pixel art graphics, in games that would have benefited a lot from 3d, even within the same franchise. like super princess peach having essentially GBA graphics when New Super Mario Bros had fancy rendering and 3d assets for many aspects of the game.
- Comment on Most under-utilized consoles? 5 weeks ago:
As far as hardware gimmicks go, I agree that the WiiU’s gamepad could’ve done so much more, I can think of so many different unique ways a game could’ve made use of it, like having two different perspectives or mini games like in GTA Chinatown wars.

- Comment on Are there really only a few New 3DS exclusive games? 5 weeks ago:
Minecraft really is a must-play for everyone, but only if you get the java edition. the bedrock edition is inferior and doesn’t have mods.
- Comment on Are there really only a few New 3DS exclusive games? 5 weeks ago:
I’ve tried minecraft new 3ds edition, and it’s only playable if you turn up the emulated cpu clock speed on citra, the actual console isn’t powerful enough to run it playably.
- Comment on PSA: You can still play Wii and DS games online, even on emulators. 5 weeks ago:
Mario Kart DS and Mario Kart Wii both have random matchmaking, but for Mario Kart DS the only reliable way to find a lobby is to ping the Mario Kart DS discord server, although at peak hours there may be between 3 and 7 people playing Mario Kart DS even without pinging the chat. I actually played a match yesterday like that.

yep, and it only takes about 15 minutes to mod one. all you do is follow a quick tutorial on the 3ds.hacks.guide site

- Comment on Anyone else quit S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 to play Anomaly? 5 weeks ago:
Stalker Anomaly is available to download for free on moddb.com, and its actually a modded version of the original games. but GSC has allowed them to redistribute the game for free.
- Comment on The Switch 2 Rollout Was So Convoluted It Made Us Want A Steam Deck. 5 weeks ago:
I am pretty sensitive to stutter and 1% lows, so maybe I’m just being nit picky. what fixed it for me was downloading a complete shader cache for the games I had stutter problems with.

- Comment on The Switch 2 Rollout Was So Convoluted It Made Us Want A Steam Deck. 5 weeks ago:
The steam deck just barely emulates the switch, so I think switch 2 emulation is out of the question unless there is serious performance hacks. Ryujinx likely would have been able to emulate the switch 2 one or two years after launch just like what happened with dolphin and the Wii. but Nintendo illegally got them shut down
- Comment on The Switch 2 Rollout Was So Convoluted It Made Us Want A Steam Deck. 5 weeks ago:
Honestly I don’t see myself getting a switch 2 until its able to be emulated. and I’m buying it and all the games used so I don’t have to support Nintendo financially
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
I used to play Roblox a lot, and there definitely is some fun to be had on that platform but its not really a proper game developing software. your “game” is completely reliant on roblox’s servers and site, and they have control over anything you do on roblox. Roblox is a lot simpler than developing a “real” game, so I think it’s closer to garry’s mod than unity or Godot.
- Comment on Global VR headset shipments fell 12% YoY in 2024, with Meta's market share rising to 84%; Vision Pro shipments fell 43% QoQ in Q4, but its enterprise sales grew. 1 month ago:
the vision pro is the most laughable excuse for a product i’ve ever seen, over 3000 dollars for a VR headset that cant play games and cant connect to a PC is insane. its a glorified web browser that makes your face sweaty.
