GBAtemp Introduces: The Meme Box

thememes.jpg

Aren't video game memes the best thing on the Internet?
IF YOU AGREE: you might enjoy this new feature we're about to show you.
IF YOU DISAGREE: you can immediately disable this new feature by customizing your portal, removing the meme box, and never hear from it again.

Now we've got that out of the way, if you're still reading this you're probably just like me: you love a good meme. In fact you wish you could browse memes endlessly at night before sleep. Well what do you know? GBAtemp now does that for you! We're introducing an experiment called The Meme Box, which is meant for the community to share fun pictures and browse them comfortably from the home page.
► You can 'like' a meme by tapping it on mobile or clicking it on desktop.
► Upload your own memes by posting in the meme box thread; if your post gets 5+ likes you'll hit the home page.
► The full rules are detailed in the meme box thread.
► You are allowed to react to memes in the thread, even without including images/attachments: if you think a meme is good just say it.

Remember that this is an experiment. If you don't like this you can simply disable the feature and ignore the meme box thread (which is in the EOF anyway). Thanks for your time and we hope you enjoy this! Have fun.

I already feel like this isn't going to turn out well
Considering there's a very clear warning about distributing warnings for misuse, I think this *may* be fine.
At worst it's not impossible to prevent several members to reply to the thread either if they shitpost instead of providing good memes (I know that sounds weird said that way)

It still wouldn't stop Facebook style memes from being featured, or any offensive image if someone creates 5 alts (since it says that any image with 5 likes will automatically get featured)

The first one is inevitable (and to be honest, several may be good anyway)
For the other one, lol, if a kid gets so much free time on their hands, they need to be purged from the site.

It wouldn't be good for the site if an archive.org or web search bot just happens to crawl the site when it's live

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Waiting for Anbernic's rg[whatever]SP price announcement, gimme.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    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:
    +1
  • 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 :)
