    Acer announces the Nitro Blaze Link, a streaming-only gaming handheld

    Oh interesting. I’ve not used it before but I kinda just assumed Moonlight only needed a local connection and not internet? Maybe I’ll try setting it up at some point to play for myself.

    Acer announces the Nitro Blaze Link, a streaming-only gaming handheld

    Just to clear something up, there's no indication at all that this thing will support cloud streaming. Honestly it'd probably have more value if it did. The Stadia comparisons are moot since it seems like local streaming only. Wii U gamepad comparison is amusing though lol.

    Acer announces the Nitro Blaze Link, a streaming-only gaming handheld

    I'd argue Logitech had the closest thing to a good streaming handheld with the G Cloud, but like I said on the previous page, these things are a very hard sell while the Odin 2 Portal is $250 and can play Switch games for that price lol

    Paper Mario PC recompilation "ReCut" gets its first pre-release build

    It's missing a licence file, which makes the project implicitly all rights reserved iirc. Since it's depending on GPL v3 software, it violates their terms. Done some reading online about this PC port and there's a lot of negativity around it, so folks should be aware and cautious of what...

    Paper Mario PC recompilation "ReCut" gets its first pre-release build

    There's no disclosure of such on the project's readme at least.

    Paper Mario PC recompilation "ReCut" gets its first pre-release build

    The latest in a growing number of native PC ports, Paper Mario ReCut got its first pre-release build earlier this week. Based on the N64 recompilation toolchain, the port runs on Windows PCs and at the very least has no issues playing through the intro. With this still being a pre-release build...

    Acer announces the Nitro Blaze Link, a streaming-only gaming handheld

    I had a quick Google around myself and you can still get the Odin 2 Portal for $250, so while that's in stock this really has no market in my mind. Once Ayn stop selling them or raise the price on the base model (8GB RAM/128GB storage, SD 8G2) though, maybe something like this will stand a...

    Acer announces the Nitro Blaze Link, a streaming-only gaming handheld

    For those curious, Digital Trends seem to have the price at $180, though I can't find their source for that: https://www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/as-steam-deck-fires-up-handheld-costs-acer-nitro-blaze-link-limits-you-to-stream-at-just-180/ Seems a nice screen, so if the controls feel good and...

    Acer announces the Nitro Blaze Link, a streaming-only gaming handheld

    From what I can tell, it can exclusively stream games. So both? lol

    Acer announces the Nitro Blaze Link, a streaming-only gaming handheld

    Amidst price increases and memory shortages, the allure of handheld PC gaming is becoming more and more distant for some. Acer think they have a solution though, today announcing the Nitro Blaze Link. On the surface it looks very similar to ASUS' ROG Ally, but delving deeper you'll see it only...

    Nintendo shows off mouse controls for the upcoming Star Fox remake

    Could be the game, it's hard to know. I tried it in Tomb Raider and my God it was awful. But for navigating the eShop and building in Pokopia it's been fantastic. Need to try it with Cyberpunk and Skyrim at some point.
