That post title really got my hopes up.

OH MY GOD! Gotta get me some Gazogem!

Nostalgia is a strong force. Nintendo is very good at capitalizing on it.

An abundanceage?

I think in that case Nintendo was more a victim of its own success and they released the console a little too early. Everyone was still playing wiis back then and there were still so many great games coming out on the Wii.

And in one sentence you’ve completely encapsulated the reason why Nintendo is terrified of emulators.

I wonder if it has anything to do with all the layoffs.

Having seen what Annapurna has done creating unreal worlds and impossible recursive realities I am extremely hyped to see what they do with control 2. I will definitely play the shit out of that game.

That I am. I’ve been fucking around with it for a couple of hours now and I just can’t figure out why it’s not working. I’m pretty convinced that it’s not me though. I tried using the fluffy app as well but I couldn’t get that to work quite right either. I’m starting to wonder if there isn’t something going on with Android 14 that’s causing the issue but I really don’t know.

Thanks. I joined. I think there might be an issue with the client now, but the link worked.

I followed the prompt for the encryption upgrade and that failed.

Maybe? Edit: removed unintentional redundancy

Not for me or that other person. I dunno dude. I never used matrix before though so perhaps I’m clicking the link wrong or something crazy.

Let me know when the link works

Or they could go with the good old “if you sacrifice privacy for security you will have neither” - Benjamin Franklin

I’m sure this could never backfire.

Interesting. My understanding of field programmable gate arrays is that they were field programmable and therefore programmable in the field. Perhaps I’m mistaken. I’m just thinking that it would be foolish for them not to leverage this for higher profit. Their handheld has a MIDI sequencer… Something tells me that maybe they were leveraging it there too.

I recognize this sounds sarcastic but I don’t mean it to be. I’ve just never done any in-depth study into FPGAs, just a little bit of an intro to them when I was back in college an Eon ago. 😂

Rom play would be good. That would make sense, but I think it would definitely be a mistake to not fully leverage the FPGA and make it do other things. If you have the ability to change your processor into a different processor on the fly, and don’t, you should be using custom chip design instead of FPGA. In the long haul, that should be cheaper.

No, if they’re using FPGA, and advertising it, the consumer should expect this box to be a chameleon. Anything else would be a disappointment, just looking at their earlier work.

Still, it’ll be interesting to see what they do with it but I already know I can’t afford it.

Yes. That is it. It’s been since before I had kids… Everything before that is a little bit fuzzy.

Yeah, it was probably project64 I was using. I get th FPGA is fantastic and allows for, basically reprogrammable hardware (think re-flashing all your firmware at the rate of a few KHz) but isn’t this a solution seeking a problem? I never had any real issues emulating N64, and it didn’t cost anything.

I’m not really seeing where the benefit of this product is. I hope the sell the crap out of it because it sounds cool, but I would never invest in the idea.

Hope I’m wrong for their sake. If I can’t remember the name of an emulator I used 13 years ago, hopefully that means I’m wrong about this too.

I wonder what they’re selling it for. FPGAs are about 150-300 off the shelf. Looks like the pocket is selling at 500-800 by scalpers, and I can see the demand for that. Maybe if the 3d plays all PS1, N64 and PS2 games, all in Super sharp 4k?

Regardless, this will be interesting to watch for further developments.

Huh. I remember playing perfect dark at high res on my PC. Guess I forgot which emu that was. Thanks for the heads up.

Now get off my lawn! Lol
