I quickly ported CannonBall - the enhanced Outrun Engine to the Switch. I'll plan on finishing it (add sound, controlls etc) soon and release it.

Can't post links of a video/pic but check my twitter @ModernVintageG . I was also known as lantus back in the Xbox/Xbox 360 scene :)

more to come!

Edit: first release out ! - https://github.com/lantus/cannonball-nx/releases

If you are indeed the lantus360 that I rememeber, then the work you did back in the 360 days was absolutely incredible.

I loved the emulators you released years ago on the Xbox Classic, their still getting some use on my Xbox! :)

As it happens i'd randomly subscribed to your Modern Vintage Gamer YouTube channel a few months ago, then found out your lantus from the Xbox Scene as I watched though some of your other videos.

thanks for the kind words!

What's the difference to running it on pFBA

its an engine thats been written for it. there are differences such as widescreen support, custom music, you can tweak the number of cars on the track etc, high score saves , different game modes etc

i ported it over mainly as a proof of concept to see whats involved, but its good enough to release :)

Still using some of your OG XBox Emulators, letting my little brothers play old games on it. Cool to see you make a return!

    Wouldn't a ps controller be more comfortable for small hands
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    @K3Nv3, Hmm, it would be but the thumb stick is way too far and I have to stretch my finger to reach it and it's a bit uncomfortable
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Xbox stick is in the perfect location though and this basically sold be the entire controller
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Compared to the og Duke controller
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Wait I was talking about modern controllers lol, never tried the og but I'm curious to see how big it'd be in my hands lol
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Even DS4 shouldn't be that far apart
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Original PS controller (both with or without sticks) is absolute perfection
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    I don't think I'll ever find a more perfect controller to hold
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    DS3 triggers were garbage
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Never had a PS3
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Doesn't look much different from the PS2 controller at least in pictures
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Aside from a few buttons
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    They had a spring back function that always felt too slippery

  • D @ DemiV:
    yeah it was a pretty straight forward iteration on the dualshock 1/2 compared to 4 and the dualsense.
  • D @ DemiV:
    aside from the sixaxis motion and aforementioned queer triggers.
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    Nintendo is discontinuing Gold Points on March 24th, 2025
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    What a shame
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    True

    Also the hell does q u e e r t r i g g e r s mean

    queer, like odd or unusual... the ds3's triggers.
  • D @ DemiV:
    or it could be a sexual awakening? i mean, i like ps3 as much as the next guy but....
  • D @ DemiV:
    too bad about the gold points though. you have to imagine there's some new loyalty thing for switch 2, but why would they keep plat points?
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Lol way to trigger some sensitive Willie's

    For MMO's I recommend the Redragon Impact series.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    They're cheap and pretty good. I've had one for over 4 years now. All the buttons are great for shortcuts in mmos.
