    Nintendo officially confirms Switch successor console, announces Nintendo Direct for next month

    Hoping it's something new but an iterative switch would be fine at long as the controllers aren't horrible

    Action-RPG 'That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime ISEKAI Chronicles' to launch in August

    japan is the king of terrible names, IDK what started this trend over there but why are their titles always super long sentences or questions

    Pimax reveals new range of VR headsets and accessories

    Wish I could quote my old post from before this announcement, It's literally the exact same thing that they always pump out. You can't even tell when they make a new one because it's just the same design with a higher resolution and different FoV or something Still disappointed that they gave up...

    Pimax to reveal its new VR headset next week

    I swear this company is always dropping some combination of "CRAZY 8k 8400PPI 960Hz 190 FoV ULTRA QWAMOPLED+ 6DOF DISPLAY" that costs 6 grand and still uses steamvr tracking from 8 years ago. I get that they're for businesses but were the last dozen models of these not enough??? I really wish...

    lmao this one actually got me, I fruitlessly tried to pry an answer out of it for almost 5 minutes until I checked the calendar

    Apple is being sued for antitrust violations by the Department of Justice of the US

    ehh Samsung is shitty too, can't install custom ROMs on their phones or root them without bypasses. Really interested to see where this case goes since Apple has been skirting their responsibilities with every ruling against them for the past ~3 years, they're literally the definition of...

    DraStic DS Emulator on Android is now free to download, will be taken down soon

    People asked for the Drastic source and we finally get it in a twisted Monkey's Paw sort of way

    Sony lays off around 900 PlayStation employees; and reportedly cancels live-service 'Twisted Metal' game

    I'm not a fan of live service battle pass slop but a new microtransaction twisted metal game is better than no twisted metal game. tragic

    Nintendo is suing the Yuzu emulator team

    let's hope for everyone's sake that judges still view computers as computers and the definition hasn't shifted too far. If anything happens this could set a really really bad precedent. If the old definition still stands, clean-room emulators will hopefully stay completely legal It seems like...

    Bethesda's new Fallout Anthology packs seven games inside a mini nuke

    pretty sure this is the exact same mini nuke that they made for fallout 4, I remember linus tech tips building a computer inside one of these back in 2015

    The Nintendo Switch 2 has been delayed to 2025, according to reports

    oh man I'm really hoping they'll finally reveal the NX, feels like I've been waiting for years

    What one gaming thing you wish you bought in the past?

    Probably the Pandora or the original GPD Win. I was too young and broke at the time to ever afford the GPD Win during their original heyday and a Windows handheld with a built-in controller was pretty novel back then. The only alternative was the Smach Z which died in development

    Details for the AYANEO Pocket S, a Snapdragon G3x Gen 2-powered Android gaming handheld, revealed

    Ehh the only one of these android handhelds that even slightly interested me was the Pimax Portal but mostly because of everything outside of the handheld gaming stuff. There's honestly no reason to own an ARM handheld with the same screen aspect ratio as your phone if you already have a phone...

    Rumor Potential Switch Lite Oled kits to be available

    that screen is still teeny tiny, was hoping that it would use up more real estate in the giant cutout. IDK how people could play a full-fat switch game on that screen

    Clamshell handheld gaming PCs AYANEO FLIP KB & DS begin crowdfunding campaign

    Still think this looks really cool but judging by AYANEO's track record they'll just dump this out and then never provide support for it and announce a new console like a month later. IDK what it is with them. Are people just straight up buying every handheld from them? What's the point of...

    The Wii U needs more Homebrew Game Ports. Why are people not making ports for the Wii U and instead the Wii?

    The Wii U doesn't have that much homebrew because it's the middle child. The Wii is a fun console to develop for because it's underpowered and nostalgic, and the Switch is better to develop for because it's the newest, fastest, and has lots more support from the bigger userbase. -There's a...

    The Switch Has No Soul.

    My only problem with the Switch's UI is that it looks like an Android custom ROM from 2016. That fugly neon blue highlight color screams Android nougat Cyanogenmod (which I'm pretty sure the Switch was originally supposed to be based off of IIRC). They never even utilized the blue light in the...

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean built in sound on mobo's has gotten way better but still XP handled sound better and X-Fi was still better than onboard audio even to this day
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Hell not sure what was going on but for like a few weeks MP3's sounded muffled, some driver or Windows update fixed it. Thank god lol

    Oh boy Massdrop has $1100 IEMs. Want, but not at that price lmao. https://drop.com/buy/campfire-audio-andromeda-emerald-sea-iem
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'd sooner buy the Meze 109 Pro if I was dropping that much on headphones. I don't even like buds/IEMs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I got the Google Pixel Pro buds, they're good enough for when I need portable audio. And some really cheap IEMs that Dankpods recommends, I think the KZ ZSN Pro

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'd stick with cheapo Chinese $10 ones quality is actually becoming on pair with name brand since name Brand usually quads the price up anyway loose one bud that's another $200
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    My Pixel Pro buds shit the bed a month or two ago. My wireless charger (which they do support Qi charging) absolutely COOKED them. Caused some problem that caused the case to heat up to 180F+
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    They were like 9 months out of warranty but I hit up Google support anyway and told them how hot they were getting and they replaced them with new ones because they wanted these for failure analysis lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    lol wireless charging
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah that's why I can't bring myself to even spend $100 on wireless earbuds
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it's a cool idea but damn
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Apparently the case has a problem with >15W wireless chargers. Google design fault, that one.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I could live with wireless charging if the damn standard case doesn't block connection
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    how is wireless charging possible?

    Copper conducting electricity or something
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @Xdqwerty, power through a coil of wire causes an electromagnetic field to be generated. Another coil of wire can be set up to harness the power from that electromagnetic field and turn it into usable energy for charging a device
