That has some Playdate energy. If I didn’t cancel my preorder I wouldn’t have bought an android emulation handheld instead and who knows where my hundreds of dollars since would have gone.

Assepoester posted:Why would Sega spend a much greater cost per unit using the more powerful hardware and greater amount of ram that android requires and pay the microsoft android tax instead of just using the operating system and software they've already developed for their megadrive and gamegear minis? There's no incentive for them to do so. Yeah I think the real question is why Sony hasn't yet/if they might ever re-enter the handheld market, not Sega or Nintendo

That Sony thing is totally a vaporware. But I expect android consoles will be released by bigger and bigger brand names. Has alienware released one yet?

I don't think Alienware often steps out of the PC/laptop space. Like I'm not sure if they ever did standalone keyboards/mice/headsets etc like Razr or Steelseries

There might be an Alienware handheld, there seems to be a rush to get handheld PCs out from the big companies. Lenovo has announced one now as well.

I just folded and bought a 405M because of this. hopefully I dont regret it but it seems like it's the one for me. I was worried it'd be too awkward for PSP but I checked on the retrosizer website and it has the same effective screen size as the PSP Go when running games which is just fine with me

Yeah I feel like that’ll be fine but I’ve been super lucky with my near vision as I age. I can handle the 3.5 screens no problem as long as they aren’t more than 2 feet away without my glasses. Far vision now that’s a problem.

Same (near vision okay, far vision toast) Although near vision has its limits too. I tried playing Mario Picross on an Anbernic 280M and it’s why I sold it. I couldn’t read the numbers on the larger puzzles. Same with Mario’s Super Picross on the RP2+ and RG351V.

There’s a translation hack but it’s 100% playable without any knowledge of Japanese. One of the better picross games too

So I was mostly curious about the Odin 2 and lmao at this poo poo  It defaults to a $77 tip lmao which is like an 18% tip.   Listen fuckers if you can’t support your self at 5% then maybe it’s time to raise the rates and not default to asking the end user for another 18%. Anyways if you could have snuck in with the early bird for the Odin they were a steal but those probably went quick.

I don’t know much about emulation, but I heard the Saturn is particularly nasty. Is the upcoming Saturn core for the MiSTER likely to solve those woes?

Having an accurate FPGA core might help with software emulation development I think. At least that’s what people smarter than me say

I wrote a whole thing about what tipping has become and how I hate it but I'm being sensitive to people who think they should get paid equally for handing you a bag of food out a drive through window (and getting the order wrong) as social workers do for dealing with the heavy poo poo and now I'm just super mad. I need gatorade and advil.

I don't know about the specs of the MiSTER dealie, but that's a lot of hardware to simulate in one FPGA, but could be done with a dedicated enough psychopath on the project. e: Dropping these videos here, too, just because the Saturn hardware and resulting code is so overcomplicated it lands in an area beyond fascinating to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPaNNiB2H-s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wU2UoxLtIm8 Explosionface fucked around with this message at 19:42 on Aug 22, 2023 |

I wouldn’t even has posted if it was like 5% but that default is just lol. It’s just a shameless attempt to make the consumer feel bad so they can make more money. It’s also greedy. Yes I also realize you can change it to $0. Also best of luck to the Odin 2 people getting their device sometime in late 2024! Russ mentioned that Ayn and Retorid have the same parent company now?

I brought a few times from indiegogo and kickstarter, but I would never recommend it. The customer service is always non-existent. I am talking about 2 steps below aliexpress. This tip thing will just make me swear off indiegogo and kickstarter for good.

I dont know if it's my brain damage or what, but I find Kickstarter to be really confusing how there's no integrated system for doing a lot of the essential things and you have to babysit the projects you back (at 2 am and then forget about a month later). I got a cool graphic novel off there though.

I've was hemming and hawing but I cancelled my Retroid Pocket 2s preorder and then I bought a japanese vita 2000. I ultimately couldn't really come up with a good enough use case for something that is kind of in between on power and can't necessarily run gamecube / ps2 stuff well with the same size screen as my miyoo mini plus. Also I wanted a new vita and it was vaguely the same price and I couldn't justify 3 handhelds in a month.
