    Cool game that went into early access yesterday. Still very bare bones but it's got a lot going for it https://store.steampowered.com/app/2400160/Glyphica_Typing_Survival/
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Isn't that just regular Minaj?

    @Veho, In the end, portable emulation handhelds are the exact same thing.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Mostly in today's age.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Wut.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    The hardware is not much different, in my opinion. It can emulate just about anything without needing a CPU upgrade, aside from a re-design.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Retro handhelds aren't really hiding the fact they're just phones with a D-pad. It's all the same SOC, just with different applications.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Exactly. That's what I'm at least trying to point out.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the high-end SOCs are still expensive so they tend to use older stuff, leftover stock and so on.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    So KTR is asking, will you guys spring for the Snapdragon,
    or should we get some older cheaper chipset.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably thought to themselves that the latter would be the better option. Not only to make them easily affordable to produce and buy, but to retain the same performance to competitors.

    After all, SoC is the same ones used in Android phones that were made for gaming.

    Gen2 is obsolete and probably can get bulk for cheap

    In the same way that a Raspberry Pi costs 30 dollars but a project involving a RPi costs at least $100, CPUs are cheap, everything else is a bitch.

    3d printing and repurposed screens got cheap so we get neat little devices out of last year's tech it's still a neat way to recycle

    It went from involving nerds with degrees to buying little Jim's after school project

    Yeah I think I spent like close to 300 all in on my Pi5 setup buuutttt depending on how you look at it that is super cheap, like per game or all the "Mini" consoles you would have to buy to get something close to it.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I just divided 5000 by 300 works out to 16.666666 cents per game lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but some of those games aren't worth that much. I hope the others make up for it. :P
