Thank you so much! Its getting to be a passion - organizing, tweaking the settings, applying the texture packs…and then having retro achievements with them? Perfect fun to me! And Clone Wars sounds fun, too!

007 Nightfire is a great rec, since spy themed games are still so hard to find. I’ll be onto this one next I think!

Games like Midnight Club and Sonic are better with the PC versions, I think. Easier to tweak with the highest possible graphics and shaders, etc.

Thanks for your tips, and help!

Nice to see so much care and effort being put in here, Dremor!

I love the thought, and it makes me feel super happy to see this place getting some more focus. Having well and truly burned my bridges (and enjoyed watching the napalm) on my ‘regular’ social media, having this place as my focus on long-form posts just makes me happy. Makes me even more so to see making this place even better is your plan!

I’m happy to raise my hand to moderate, if you still need extra help. I’d guess not since Lemmy’s workload on a modqueue is a small one. But do feel free to reach out to me via DM if you’d like suggestions/recommendations! Having moderated on Reddit (from giant 10m+ subs to the tiny community-focused ones) I’ve got plenty of ideas to encourage more community involvement?!

Take your fking screenshots and go to hell already.

Yeah, great, what a super constructive and positive outlook to have. If you mean these kinds of posts where the they share screenshots and the thoughts they’ve had on how the game plays, each day then I’m not sure how you consider that low effort.

I’m guessing you haven’t even clicked on them?

They write a great deal, show how the game feels, express how they’ve enjoyed the games and if they’d recommend them. I consider these posts one of the more valuable we have here in this community. It’s not just a link and a one-liner, they’re writing and sharing their experiences and creativity. Formatted and so well made.

Its insane to me that you’d think this is shit. What would you prefer be posted here?

That’s really kind of you to do! I’m glad its found a new audience thanks to your help! Thank you for doing that :)

I did it myself! Which obviously doesn’t help you whatsoever, but if you’re looking to get yours done you can:

• If you’re in the 'States, then look up So-Cal Console Modding - or follow this link and check them out. - this is run by the guy who moderates the sub-reddit called r/SwitchPirates and he is about as above-reproach as you can get. The best of the best.

• Check Etsy in your area (find someone who has a lot of reviews, and guarantees their soldering work - kamikaze method is the one you want for the OLED), or even nearby. Some are happy with mail-in services.

• Facebook Marketplace. I know, its fb…but there are reputable people who do the work, depending on where you are

• Phone repair shops! Sounds odd, but 9/10 will know exactly how to do the work, since micro-soldering is their bread and butter. Show them a guide, and they’ll do the work. My friend (one of the devs of Decky Loader) did this last week - took his to a phone repair shop and all is fine :)

Do let me know how you like it if you do pick it up!!!

I’m so glad someone caught a shot of that!

It’s hard to resist the urge. Amazing, right?!

That’s kind of you, Dremor!

And thanks for letting me have a space where I can share these long-form posts. They make me happy to write them, and each week its a relief to see them welcomed here :)

That’s really kind of you!!!

Keep an eye out for them in the future then! :)

Thank you so much!!!

So far, definitely no signs of slowing down with these :)

I am sorry!

I’ve had that a few times, I do know the Boost app for iOS struggles with these posts, too. Glad you worked around it, and sorry it caused your app to get wonky!!!

I’m so glad you enjoyed it!!!

Thanks for taking the time to read through :)

Oh nice to see you are here on Lemmy, Zurdi! :)

Oh that’s so kind of you to say!! Thank you, I’m so glad you enjoyed it!

I’d imagine that game would be phenomenal with the TDP set low!

I love that in these cases that whim of joining leaves people with a project they love, a community to enjoy, and friends for life!!!

Really, thats what I love in the FOSS world too!

Glad you enjoyed this, let me know what you think of it when you check it out, I’m super curious how you find it :)

God damn it. The wrong ‘to’.

Somehow I didn’t even see it when you pointed it out!!! -__-

Yep, that’s on me!

I get what you mean…kinda negates the ‘unique’ wording there, but the outspoken downside to so, so many handhelds which are released (and touted to be) in ‘competition’ with the Steam Deck tend to omit them. The LeGo got closest with the right-hand side one, which is still kinda small.

I know it’s worded poorly, but I can (if I peer) still see what I’m trying to convey even with how its set out there!

Well, keep an eye on RetroDECK + RomM, being friends with the RetroDECK devs, I can say they’re taking that idea just as seriously as you are!!!
