PREFACE - The Introduction to your Embellishing Future
[Preface is planned to have 7-15 paragraphs. These paragraphs are currently under construction. Some of these material may or may not be in the final tutorial. I am currently fiddling with layout. Not all of my work are found here. I am pasting it from my draft from MS Word to test the format.]
There was a time when you could get the classic IBM Portable PC (1975) for $19,975 USD, which scores you a 64KB RAM. Yes, you read that right. ONLY 64 Kilobytes of Read Access Memory. Go ahead, grab your smartphone. If you don't have one, just check your local, favorite carrier store. Even the cheapest budget smartphone probably have at least 256MB of memory, let alone that whooping 2GB memory in that Galaxy Note II.​
______NOTICE notice NOTICE notice NOTICE notice
If you have no idea what RAM means, don't worry. This tutorial does not require you to understand what RAM means, unless you are planning to tackle the advance section of the tutorial (which will be written at a later time). In a nutshell, if you are interested, RAM (Read Access Memory) in the very simplest definition, can be thought as where temporarily data is stored. The more RAM you have, the more likely the device is able to multi-task. If you are interested in learning more, hit the link for more info:​
__________________________________________

We have dual cores, affable chunk of RAM, and flexible operating system. Does not that sound familiar? You might realize: "Yeah, you're right! Doesn't this sound like my computer in my bedroom?" If you have a gaming rig, or you don't have a PC at all, please just pretend do understand for the sake of this tutorial. (And if you don't have a bedroom... well... :wtf:) With these relatively small minicomputers, shouldn't we get more ....​

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
