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

    Kinda wish I could have gotten my grandpa's old Odyssey2, but he sold it along with everything else to move into the city after grandma passed.

    Thanks :P Would have been nice, but that's the way it goes. Although I wouldn't complain if they decided to honor the screwup, lol

    Walmart and Target will no longer sell Pokemon cards in store due to "safety concerns"

    iirc, what basically happened is it became popular to drop thousands on boosters to open on stream, which lead to an upsurge in scalpers looking to profit, which lead to empty shelves and raised prices everywhere. For those who just want to build their collection, like my fiance, it kinda sucks...

    Suspicious login attempts begin to plague Switch owners, Nintendo to investigate

    That explains the weird logins on my 3DS account (for reasons, my 3DS and Switch are on separate accounts). Had 2 emails from yesterday morning (Around 1130AM on April 21) saying that my 3DS account logged in from the US. Not like I have any payment info saved on either anyway.

    Homebrew Emulation GameYob, a gameboy emulator for DS

    So I tried to download the DSTwo plugin for this, and my laptop tells me that the .RAR file that supposedly contains the plugin is in an incorrect format or damaged. Just thought you might want to know. If it matters, it tries defaulting to use my browser to open it for some reason. Edit: I'm...

    Hacking [Confirmed] New Firmware update 5pm PDT

    I got eShop cards for a digital copy, so I could just play it a little each day without having to switched out cards all the time. I went to redeem the second $20 one today after I got it, and there was an update. Good thing I declined and checked here first.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you just want pi for emulation no point when Anbernic releases new shit every two seconds

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
