    Homebrew Homebrew game Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past 3DS Port

    ALTTP is one of the great ones, but can be a bit obtuse for someone not accustomed to the old games. OOT3D is a great starting point. Link’s Awakening or the Oracle games are great intros because they’re a bit stripped back. ALTTP is a fine place to start though as long as you have patience...

    Sony is moving away from physical discs, will soon only release PlayStation games digitally

    Sure am loving my bc250. I disconnected the ps5 to make room on the tv stand and frankly haven’t even *considered* putting it back up. Almost cracked for FF7 Rebirth but there’s a patch for that! Sony can eat my whole ass

    Sony is moving away from physical discs, will soon only release PlayStation games digitally

    Because everything can be played on PC except future games that I won’t be buying anyways. I lose bloodborne, which can be emulated. I lose demons souls, which can be emulated, I lose chrono cross which I have in my Steam family (or can be emulated). I bought the ps5 because I didn’t have a...

    Sony is moving away from physical discs, will soon only release PlayStation games digitally

    Petition.org is a fundamentally useless expression of fucking anything and whether or not they will “get away with it” does not impact what paying customers choose to do with their dollars.

    Then I hope everyone who still has a PlayStation enjoys it.

    Steam Machine waiting list goes live, starting at £879 with a 512GB SSD

    It’s here and it’s pretty good. No CEC, no sleep mode (and therefore no controller wake-up), pretty noisy compared to deck or SM, but also pretty performant

    7.61 PS5 or actual PC for $500?

    There’s also the BC250 if you’re into DIY.

    Steam Machine waiting list goes live, starting at £879 with a 512GB SSD

    I made my decisions: BC250 en route. I might see about some kind of HDMI CEC dongle, but I already have a steam controller. It’s coming with bazzite already installed so first things first I’ll need to enable the extra CUs and tweak the OC. If this plays E33 at 1440p without being ugly af I’ll...

    Steam Machine waiting list goes live, starting at £879 with a 512GB SSD

    I’m definitely at a point where I need something to upgrade from the Deck. There are enough games I want to play that don’t run well enough for my tastes. I have a case, PSU, and SSD already. I can get a mobo, 7500x3d, 16GB of RAM, and a 9060xt for $800. A bc250 ends up being like $500 when...

    Steam Machine waiting list goes live, starting at £879 with a 512GB SSD

    I’m pretty torn. A “real” PC will 100% be more powerful but will also draw far more power (this is more a problem for the adults than the students or people who don’t pay their own power bill), it will be far noisier and larger even with mITX and noctua. That same $1050 goes a lot further...

    Steam Machine waiting list goes live, starting at £879 with a 512GB SSD

    I’ll probably get the base model and throw a 4TB that I already own in it. It’s about $200-$300 more expensive than I want but a DIY equivalent build in this market is within about $100 and won’t include HDMI CEC or be small enough for a TV stand. Not to mention things like driver support and...

    Homebrew PCSX ReARMed compatibility list

    Adding frameskip can hardly be considered playable but the compat list is old/outdated/incomplete/bad. I’ll try WA1 later but I’m willing to bet it runs fine with the tweaks Using the PCSX RA core (not the forwarder) I get 60fps locked with good audio in WA1. And WA2 boots no problem. Mostly...

    Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa explains Switch 2 price increases in recent Financial Results Briefing

    if that’s how they thought then we would never see a purple_bandit post again.

    Star Fox 64 remake for the Switch 2 announced in surprise Nintendo Direct

    Nintendo has struggled to make a good starfox since 64. It being basically the perfect starfox experience I think it makes the most sense to revitalize the franchise. If this sells well they can get experimental again.
