purbeast Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Elden Ring sitting at 97 on metacritic with 44 reviews. Sounds like it's going to be fantastic. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I have a review on the knockoff Nintendo with 620 games programmed in to it. There is one incredibly bad "red flag", that you may be able to adapt to.. - $50 at the local Vintage shop. - Majority of the games are Japanese. Mario brothers games where Mario can shoot guns like the triple-sprayer in Contra. ****ing awesome. - Ice Hockey is the exact same as you know it, Double Dragon 2 is the exact same - except its music is sped up x2 throughout the entire game. HERE'S THE KILLER RED FLAG OF THIS SYSTEM: Diagonal on the directional pad doesn't work. If you hit a side and up/down button at the same time, your character freezes. It ruins even Atari games on here. However, I feel as if it gives me an extra challenge. Hard not to feel incredibly handicapped while playing. Sucks. The directional pad kills this system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro Pie...can you elaborate? I'd like to bypass the research. I swear this console is one giant subtle-complete-****-up of a system. Diagonal is broken.

I swear this console is one giant subtle-complete-****-up of a system. Diagonal is broken. It's an emulator that works very well with a Raspberry Pi. Just image a micro SD card, plug into the pi, and turn it on. Boots right into the menu and interface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoCalMike Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 I also have a retro pie too. It works great. The model I have runs game as far back as the Atari era through about Sega Saturn era. My buddy said it might be able to run some N64 but to be safe I could go with a more up to date model in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
“Misdirection” Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 lol the boys and I bought $40 burner androids to play GBA and DS roms on. Best part is how stealthy and mobile it is 😂 perfect for a plane ride, office break, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Oh know i'm a dork because I know how to read and follow basic instructions!" Do what you want with it. It doesn't really matter to me.

It's a list of the stuff you need and has links to where you can purchase them. Then it's a list of about 5 steps of what to do, with the links for tools you need, to get it all setup. And if that is too much for you, I posted a video that walks you through it. And no I'm not posting a link to where to get pirated games. I would assume you know how to use google but that might be a stretch at this point since you think you have to have "expertise" to use the internet. I'm surprised you know how to use a forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
