Probably because it's already the next day in Ireland (where Gamr13 is from)

Doesn't surprise me to see those reactions. There's a lot of dumb people in that server, one of the reasons I left that place actually.
are you calling me dumb too? I fell for the April fools joke as well. I didn't respond to his posts though, so none of those reactions are mine.

Of course not man. I don't have anything against you. "There's a lot" does not equal "everyone". But I do know that a lot of people are like that from experience, especially in the #help channel. The responses are just not surprising considering the patterns I've seen there is all.

I have a question. Which XBox core would I need for Killzone [any one of them in xbox]
for my laptop? It seems to work well using their PPSSPP core.

I am in the US Pacific Coast [PST] area, If that helps.

I'm beginning to like Retroarch with it's features PPSSPP doesn't have.

That was my April fools joke to you. :P

Which Killzone are you trying to play? Depending on which one, you use PCSX2 or PPSSPP.

Hello again. PPSSPP in this case. Thank you for replying, as I am contemplating either the first Killzone, or the one after the one made for PSP [Liberation]. I don't like getting too far ahead in the saga, as to not lose the Plots of the game so to speak.

Any way to use an 8bitdo Pro 2 controller/other 3rd party on a Series S/X doing this, or are you stuck with the Xbox controller?

Unless you use one of those adaptor accessories (which make the Xbox believe said controller is a regular Xbox controller), you are stuck with a Xbox controller,a USB keyboard, or both.

Thanks, I'm not familiar with those, and a quick Google search didn't locate anything that looked like what you're describing. Are they inexpensive, and do they work flawlessly? Or do they add a lot of input lag?
Trying to decide if it's worth picking up a Series S to supplement my Wii as retro gaming machine, or if I'm better off just hooking up my computer to the HDMI on my TV and using whatever controller I want.

I haven't tried those myself, but heard them mention as a potential way to get a Wii Remote working with the Xbox and saw videos and sites about them to get some information.

Although I can't quite recall the name of those that were mentioned sadly.

Okay, no problem at all. Seems like at best it's a complicated workaround, and at worst it's limited to only a handful of controllers. After getting so used to the Dpad on 8bitdo's controllers (and similar ones) it's hard to use anything else for retro games haha.

@GABO1423 , do you know if there's a way to rename an app on the home screen of the series x? I thought there was a way, but I think I'm mistaken.
You are indeed. The name of the app is something that you can't change whatsoever in Retail. In the case of RetroArch, you actually set a name while making a build of it before installing it. After it's installed, you have no control over the name.
