How’s the job hunt going?

Also Cassete Beasts, Halls of Torment, and Dome Keeper.

I’d imagine some modders are viewing Starfield as a framework to facilitate gameplay they want, considering there are 1000 planets with nothing on them.

It wasn’t for a long time, but apparently they were able to crack it for emulation. That said, the whole appeal of the Analogue was for the genuine, native playback of physical cartridges. Emulation doesn’t seem to have basic features you’d expect from an emulation device like save states or fast-forward. If I were you, I’d go for something like the RG35xx or the Miyoo Mini +

I also picked up Haunting Ground on my SD after seeing Spnere Hunter’s video raving about it. Fantastic horror game for sure.

Fantastic blend. I really need to develop the foresight to brine my chicken days in advance

You will appreciate the story of 2 a lot more if you have played 1. They closely tie together.

Also, RDR1 is a spectacular game. 2 is better and worse in various ways. 1 is more video-gamey; 2 is more simulation.

That said, if you’re not all that interested in 1, 2 is just fine on its own!

You could always use Lemmy.world, or you can make an account directly on Lemmy.nsfw. The Memmy app lets you switch between accounts like you could on Apollo

But emulating console games built around a controller using M+KB is so uncomfortable.

8bitdo is the way to go for sure. Can’t beat that dpad. I personally use the 8BitDo Ultimate since it has a 2.4 connector built into the dock. I have the dock plugged into my Steam Deck dock, so it’s perfect for emulation on the big screen. Then if I turn on my Switch, I flip the toggle to Bluetooth on the controller and it becomes a Switch Pro controller.

To quote Dunkey in his Xenonlade 2 video: why are her boobs bigger than her head??!

They did, but the majority of the story took place in a single universe. The art style differences were usually restricted to the individual characters.

My friend and I bought trucks around the same time. Mine is a simple tradesman Ram, no bells and whistles, primarily for moving and hauling stuff that can’t fit in my wife’s sedan.

I’m a pretty passive driver. Live and let live, y’know?

My friend had a similar personality when he first got his Tundra (of course with all the extras he can afford). Then he goes and spends $10,000 on a lift, winch, and floodlights. Now he’s like a different person. He drives super aggressively, whipping round corners, weaving through traffic going 20mph over on the highway. He was driving me through some quiet neighborhood the other day and nearly mowed over a cyclist. I asked him what the hell he was doing and he shrugged and said “if she’s gonna ride a bike in the street, she’s gotta look out for trucks. Not my fault if she doesn’t see me”

TL;DR - truck drivers are fine, a truck is a tool like any other vehicle. Lifting your truck turns you into a redneck scumbag overnight though apparently.

Heads up since everyone is recommending Retroarch:

Retroarch has a SIGNIFICANT learning curve. There are so many settings hidden in menus and submenus. I recommend looking up some YouTube videos before diving in if you’re a fist-timer, since it can get overwhelming really quickly.

First load after a reboot takes over a minute usually. Pretty normal load times.

Mario World world map is like a Mario Kart track at this point. Every year we take another lap.

Love the OG! I’ve heard Thousand Year Door is even better but I haven’t gotten around to playing it.

Love my Miyoo Mini. Games like Zelda give my hand cramps on it, but it’s fantastic for RPGs. I’m partway through Final Fantasy VII on it.

Does Switch Online have save states? If so, don’t be afraid to use them. It’s more punishing than newer Fire Emblem games.

Same here, I’ve deleted 5 years worth of content. Really digging the smaller community of people here who actually care.
