    Oh yeah, didn't find the time for a write up on this one, but I did make a video with some brief thoughts on Orbitals:



    Admittedly did struggle a little with exactly what to show/talk about. I really do find it hard when a game is so short. Like if I talk about everything I like, there'll not be that much left to discover by playing lol

    Hot damn it scales well too.

    Android handhelds are surprisingly seamless when docking. All the controls I mapped previously just work fine with the Ultimate 3E, assumedly because the internal controls are also XInput.

    The main annoyance is that emulators don't automatically switch the input device. So you always have to go in and manually change it. I much prefer the way Gamenative handles it, it just works.

    Oh interesting, on the Odin 2 Mini it’s no fuss at all. I move between built in controls and the Ultimate 3E without any issues. Could be an emulator thing, pretty much just been playing PSP so for for Portable 3rd.

    Haven't played PSP yet, maybe since it's a handheld it isn't multiplayer, so it can just auto switch to whichever controller is in use. But home console emulators need you to set which controller to use per player.

    Seeing Outlanders got me in a Monster Hunting mood...

    Finally got around to setting up iisu, and now I have a Monster Hunter handheld! With one space left for Outlanders when it launches! Been having a blast with Portable 3rd in my travels to and from the office, it's the only game in the series I've never really played properly.

    Very much recommend this if you enjoy writing:

    Current competition is closing today, but the next one is pretty soon in November. Only £10 to enter and a chunk of that supports wildlife conservation, so it's a solid cause.

    It's a pun on the Blue-Footed Booby, and the fact that a consolation prize is commonly known as a booby prize :teach:

    mmmm the temptation to do a big sell to try to afford an AI Max+ 395 handheld. The AYENEO Next 2 and GPD Win 5 both look so good.

    getting in from work at 8:30pm should be a crime, british trains are a fucking mess man

    I'll get a post written up for it later today too, but Elden Ring on the Switch 2 is pretty good!

    Scarlet
    Man, you should be able to pre-load Game Key Cards. Waiting for the mail to then just wait for a download is rough.

    Elden Ring dispatched! Looking forward to playing it on Switch 2. Looks like they managed to fix up the port based on the reviews that are out, so will hopefully be a good time.

    Wuh oh it seems like Nintendo has taken down a bunch of switch emulators! if you're currently in the process of making an article on here for it then that's good. if not, then can I try my best taking about it?

    The mods are going to have a field day removing the same boring quote that doesn't contribute to anything related to this. That does look quite cool, though. Not entirely huge on new Pokemon ROM hacks but it's good to see new stuff is being added.

    You should definitely give silent assassin on each map a go, it completely changes how you play the game. Freelancer feels entirely different too, both fantastic.

    I feared this from smaller phone manufacturers :(

    On the note of handhelds though, I did just buy the Konkr Advance. Will probably do a review for it when it arrives, looks rad.

    I'll buy it for $20 when it starts collecting dust.
