Marx Headroom posted:Vita hacking is pretty easy these days Hmmm. Maybe worth holding onto just for Vita emulation since the 35xx does great with PSX and I already have the RG505 which handles PSP great. Truth be told....I never really played many games on the thing.....and it's sat idley for like 4-5 years at least. Maybe I'll check out what the Vita has to offer. Can always sell it down the road. Again....this was kind of a bonus find as I have been digging through my boxes of games in order to organize and pull out anything with rising value. I was about 75% sure that I had sold it years back.

It's apparently the goat for JRPGs but if you don't like those it's kind of forgettable. I bought one around launch and only ever owned like 3 games for it, although FIFA was cool because you could aim your shots with the rear touchpad Also they sell SD card converters now, which is nice because Sony gonna Sony and their memory sticks cost a hilarious amount shyduck fucked around with this message at 16:45 on May 2, 2024 |

Already ordered an SD2Vita. I'll custom firmware it up and see what if anything jumps out at me. At the very least.....there's a Vita exclusive Uncharted game that I'd definitely like to play.

I am in the middle of moving to a home which housed an 80+ old lady, I found an Game Gear (with 2 rotten batteries inside) and an old school Gameboy hard carrying box. I am keeping it to store my retro consoles. I am also moving own "gaming" basket out of my garage and found my PSP in it. I only kept my modded PS2 and PSP and sold all my other consoles. Sold my vita long time ago.  edit, oh yeah I also found an old X360. Haven't tested it yet but since the equally old Casio e-piano works, I expect this 360 will boot up too. stephenthinkpad fucked around with this message at 17:05 on May 2, 2024 |

The 360 is one of the few “retro” consoles I still keep not packed away lately since only my main pc can emulate it, and games are cheap.

There's tremendous value with the 360/PS3 area. Since resolution hit 720/1080p.....I think a lot of games are going to be much easier for the typical person to pick up and start playing.....even though the graphics might not be up to snuff with current systems. I have probably around 20 or more PS3 games that I never played.....but picked up for dirt cheap at gamestop over the years. Eventually I'll try them out.

I actively restored a 360 over the last week, it and a PS3 are extremely nice things to have around. Especially with how a modded PS3 can also play a decent chunk of the PS2 library though the official PS2 Classics emulator. That they’re both still pretty dirt cheap is also nice.

I’ve been bummed lately that there is no way to play Xbox360 games on steam deck or the like and now I have a crazy idea…what if I just buy an xbox360? Not portable, obviously, but could be fun!

There is a working Linux port of Xenia now, so you can but its compatibility is very limited.

The PS3 at least still has a sizeable pile of exclusives that’ve never been brought forwards because of a Cell shaped issue with how they were made.

many 360 exclusives also still work on the newer xboxes via back compat, often with resolution and framerate improvements IIRC like a third of the library is backwards compatible

Maybe there is a mod or something? Inquisition supports controllers though and there is no reason to ever play Dragon Age 2. Substandard fucked around with this message at 00:19 on May 3, 2024 |

Dragon Age 2 is the one where all the female characters have bigger boobs because it was told by the unreliable narrator the little creasy dwarf guy. I watched a youtube video recently that discussed how all the parties that invested in the cell engine in PS3 (Sony, Toshiba, IBM) ended up losing money in this venture and got out of the chip business afterward. Apple flirted with the idea of using Cell for Mac but wised up and called it off. Also some US military tried to make supercomputers with cell chips.

Can the RG Arc-D do video out over USB-C or do you need a mini HDMI cable? I tried connecting the USB hub I use for my Steam Deck up to the OTG port and connecting an HDMI cable to that but it didn't auto-detect the monitor I connected it to. I'm using the Android side with Daijisho installed because I've seen some folks in here complain that the included Linux build is "unusable". Also, is there any good CFW for the device, or alternate Linux builds I could use, possibly with an autoboot into EmulationStation?

Gotcha, there might be some benefits to streaming (better battery life on your deck and maybe a simpler setup of the games on Windows vs any manual proton that's needed for Linux), but it looks like they both should play fine locally if you prefer that option too. It's a great little device.

Some games on PC doesn't have controller support whatsoever, I came across such game after I brought it on steam (a Fortune Street knock off called "Richman"), I ended up finding the Switch version and play it on Odin Pro.
