In this episode, we'll be discussing the recent changes in the EoF, some stuff about my life, and also review a couple of good threads. Ordinary episode pretty much. Does anybody even read these?

No, Launch day 3DS's came with charger. (Why the fuck would Nintendo launch a console that can't be charged and has literally no batteries compartment?)

And Ambassadors 3DS are kind of weird.
Nintendo launched the ambassador thing for those who paid extra cash for their 3DS's, because the 3DS wasn't selling that well, and Nintendo halved the price of the consoles, and those who actually payed the full price got "consolated" as Ambassadors.

Nitnendo, saw that both marketing strategies where successful boosting the 3DS sales.

Unfortanely for us, launch day buyers (who payed for an overpriced console) Nintendo also released the Ambassador Program for those buyers whom got their consoles for a cheaper price.
I have my Ambassador thing but I also hacked my 3DS in "revenge" for Nintendo launching the Ambassador Program for those who payed less money.

The charger not comming thing was only for New 3DS consoles.

Oh fucking hell no @AlanJohn has returned to slurping in the EoFCast :angry:
You too hate when people slurps?
That's just one reason why I don't eat outside.

Oh I had an n3ds, the Black Friday Mario one. I quickly grew to hate the 3D effect so I sold it and got the much better n2ds xl. Recently, I’ve acquired an o3ds xl. The 3D effect is much nicer on the larger screen. Really though, the 3D effect gives me a headache, especially late at night.

Happy 23rd New Year to The @AlanJohn

Oops... I started to follow you on Twitter.
You'll get likes on every single post you make from now onwards, and that's going to be weird too.

I really loved the 3D effect.
Specially in Smash Bros for 3DS, Pac-Man & Galaga Dimmensions, Street Fighter IV, StarFox 64 3D, Ocarina of Time 3D and Colors!
Specially Colors!, like... the 3DS was made for those specific games.

I never understood why people hated the 3D effect, probably because they never used it as it was designed to be used as... like... we just got the 3D slider for that purpose? Each individual perceives 3D effects differently.

I think the 3D effect is most disliked by people older than 35. “Them eyes don’t work like they used too.”.
Well I'm not saying my age but I never use the 3d on my 3ds as it makes me feel sick.

  • 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:

  • 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:

  • 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 :)
