No need for this. Not only this will create more drama, but that would also give more reasons to spam users with pointless notifications. Trolls are likely to abuse it. We have like abuse already.

The like button is originally intended to make helpful posts stand out from the rest.
Giving noobs a better view of who's more reputable/what posts contain useful information.

Unfortunately, trolls have abused that, margen69 or whatever his name was commenced in an entire like spam-a-thon.
Not to mention that you also could just post dumb shit and farm likes with it.

No, a dislike button would just create a fuck ton of drama.
Not to mention that this is GBATemp, not Youtube.

Yes, and it should downvote and hide posts, just like my website, Reddit :^)!

This website would be a lot better as an echo chamber!

Drumroll ....
And the results are in.
We got 17 Nos
And 7 Yeas.

I gotta say I laughed real hard when I mentioned the word "dislike" to the millennial generation in the web.

Dislike is like a jail or a death sentence to you people isn't it?

Lmao.

"We only want likes not dislikes."
Hahaha.

Ok let's shut this down now.

Yeah there should be a dislike button...if you want the blog section to go bananas with posts people complaining about how they are treated unfairly and that life is crap in general etc. And while you are at it, you can rename this site to reddit 2 :tpi:

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
