I like indie games for walking sim and story heavy games only. Outside of that, 99% of indie games feel like some pixel art bs retro rip off roguelike nostalgia cash grab. I hate garbage ware like meatboy, etc.

If AAA studios weren’t so shitty, I feel like half of the indie studios wouldn’t have a chance.

Can we hold hands?

Jokes on you, I’m already there, shitting.

They don’t want to mess with dat Arab money

Yeah I couldn’t focus on modern games because of anxiety last night, so I fired up DOSbox and had a good time with doom and chopper commando

Sucks that a small frame single cab pickup truck has to comeback under Bezos, because it is the perfect example of a sane size and price truck, but being attached to Bezos and electric only kills it for me. I was super interested until I did research on the company. I really wish they’d bring back the tiny (by today’s standards) Toyota trucks with the full size bed. Like the mid 90s Tacoma with no lift

I really want a steam deck

It’s hit a pi zero 1 w in it so Atari to right up to N64, but not N64

Yeah I have a raspberry pi ‘syncthing hub’ that keeps all my devices uniform down to dot files and configs. It’s so essential. It’s so nice as well to be able to switch from my desktop to a laptop and continue coding seamlessly. Everything is ready as soon as I log to my computer. Don’t have to use any kind of service like google cloud, etc.

Omg I owned untold legends when I bought my psp at release. I loved that game but my little brother destroyed my psp like a month after I bought it with my first job. I could never remember the game’s name

I really need to try to play it. My computer lab at school growing up was lacking. We had Oregon trail, chopper commando, etc.

I haven’t played a ton of old games besides doom, Age of empires, etc.

Although I played Warcraft and original counterstrike at a pc bong once.

My main experience with older pc games is like 2002-2007, when I finally was able to save and buy my own PC.

I’m guessing yeah, unless they’re more costly than the PS1 because it can handle that well. I just haven’t messed with shaders much. I found this green one and kinda stuck with it. I need to do more exploring with it because I’ve had it for about 4 years now. I originally had a pi zero 1W in it, but I upgraded when the 2 came out.

I think the newest version of the case can take the pi compute module so you might have even more power with that

I don’t know, I got it for $2 at a thrift shop this weekend. It’s a compaq for sure. I got it to go with my early 90s IBM mouse. I got so excited I forgot to research it. I will definitely be doing that after work

It’s a case for a raspberry pi zero 2. It’s the retroflag GPI case.

It runs full Linux/retropie that you have to install and set up. You have to get the pi/sd card/batteries yourself. But i prefer it to the cheap TikTok ones. The support is really good and they’ve sent me spare parts

The new version can use a dock for your TV

So many sounds. Including you’ve got Mail

Yeah I already called them out a couple weeks ago. There is a rightwing disinformation campaign going on against sources the left trusts, including Wikipedia, especially since they’ve been in a fight with the administration.

We should pass that cost on to Israel

Speaking of which, I just did a fresh install of retropie for the first time since 2023 and am sad to see there are AI features in retroarch turned on by default. Wtf. I’m playing games on a pi zero. What do I need AI for?

Handhelds are so cool. I’d love to have a game gear one day

I don’t see the point of compressing the games. They’re so small (except my 300 gig psx collection) that I can fit every game from Atari- Gameboy advance on an 32 gb sd card + OS and a couple psx games. The internet thing kind of sucks, but I also don’t want to store all that data on my device like my pi.
