    Feedback Gaming Tales of Phantasia: which version should I play?

    I’d recommend the PSP version, Tales of Phantasia: Full Voice Edition, if you can play it. It’s one of the most complete versions, with voice acting, improved presentation, and various gameplay additions. The PS1 version is also good if you want something closer to the classic experience. Going...

    How would you improve Twilight Princess?

    Yeah, I think that’s a fair way to look at it. Some of Twilight Princess’s flaws are so tied to its identity that fixing everything would basically turn it into a different game. The boat minigame controls definitely could have used some refinement, though. And I’m curious what you were going to...

    How would you improve Twilight Princess?

    I think your criticisms are pretty fair. Twilight Princess still has great atmosphere, dungeon design and exploration, but the combat and difficulty haven't aged as well. Hero Mode mostly makes you take more damage rather than making enemies more interesting to fight. I especially agree about...

    Android Project Need your help to revive the mobile game Pokemon Rumble Rush

    This would be a really cool project to see succeed. Rumble Rush had a lot of potential, and bringing it back for preservation would be a great way to keep the game from being completely lost. Hopefully some former players still have old game data, APKs, assets, or technical information that can...

    Feedback Recommend Me a Game: GBATemp Edition

    College definitely makes it harder to keep up with new games, so I think revisiting the form is a great idea. I’d suggest checking out a mix of shorter indie games and a few overlooked older titles rather than only focusing on big releases. There are plenty of games that can provide enough...

    Emulation Feedback Homebrew Homebrew app Can we get Nextendo Network to drop Discord verification?

    I agree that Discord verification should at least be optional. People should be able to use a service like Nextendo without being forced to create an account on another platform. Hopefully the developers will consider alternative verification methods that keep the service accessible to everyone.

    Archades Games custom game carts, but how legal is it?

    Yeah, the hardware looks fantastic, but I think the ROM/emulator aspect is where things could get messy. Nintendo especially is very protective of its games and would probably have little patience for something distributing copyrighted ROMs. If the creator can separate the hardware from the...

    Thoughts on tiktok?

    I don’t think you’re an old geezer at all. TikTok can be entertaining, but if short-form videos don’t appeal to you, there’s really no reason to force yourself into it. A lot of the appeal is the algorithm constantly finding content that matches your interests, but that can easily turn into...

    Emulation Hardware Gaming laptop

    For Steam streaming and emulation, I’d look for at least 16GB RAM and a decent Ryzen 5 or Core i5 processor. If possible, a dedicated GPU would be a big advantage, especially if you plan to emulate newer consoles. The MSI Modern 14 you mentioned is more of a general-purpose laptop, so I wouldn’t...

    Favorite JRPG party members and why?

    I definitely get your picks. Ioshua is one of those characters who isn't incredibly deep, but he's just really likable and useful in battle, which goes a long way. Rei is probably my favorite from your Breath of Fire 3 picks too. His character development is great, especially with how easily his...

    Feedback Why is it illegal for a person to sell his/her game account?

    The main issue is that PSN games are licensed to the account and aren’t legally transferable between people. Allowing account sales could also lead to fraud, stolen accounts, chargebacks, and disputes over ownership. I do understand the frustration, though. If someone has legitimately paid for a...

    Struggling to get AetherSX2 running smoothly on my Android phone

    Hello everyone. Has anyone else had trouble getting AetherSX2 to run consistently on Android? I recently set it up on a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 device and the performance is inconsistent, some games run at a stable framerate while others chug badly even with similar system requirements. I have...
