The GBA had a fantastic library!

[-] RamrodBaguette@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago

Aria of Sorrow, Fire Emblem, Minish Cap… yeah

[-] AFineWayToDie@hexbear.net 22 points 3 days ago

Gaming attained perfection in 1998.

[-] ChaosMaterialist@hexbear.net 20 points 3 days ago

That era was a sweet spot because developers had enough power for complex games and decent graphics, but limited enough that they couldn't drown their art department in graphics fidelity.

Common misconception—Hamtaro: Ham-Ham Games released in 2004

[-] doublepepperoni@hexbear.net 9 points 3 days ago

I think most people would argue that at least when it comes to console games, the peak was attained a little later, in the PS2 era

You gotta Noctua on that thang

Stardew Valley runs great on my 1080

I got myself a cheap emulation handheld and haven't booted up my PC since July. If it doesn't fall apart, it would take me years to finish what I have stored on it.

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 10 points 3 days ago

I had a period of like 2 years where I mostly played GBA, SNES, and PSX games on one - super fun. A slightly bigger one with more ergonomic controls and maybe PS2 and NGC support would be perfect

I really appreciate the steam deck for that

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 3 points 2 days ago

I want one, but I'd use it in the same room as my desktop PC like 90% of the time, so it's hard to justify the cost. They also seem so large for some reason

haven’t booted up my PC since July

Do you not need to do like... productivity stuff?

[-] gramxi@hexbear.net 11 points 3 days ago

I don't have a computer toucher job emilie-shrug

[-] communism@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago

Neither do I, I just need to use my PC every day for my own projects. Even if not for those I need the use of a physical keyboard, just a much nicer digital experience than typing things on a phone.

[-] git@hexbear.net 10 points 3 days ago

I completed a build a couple of months ago:

  • ASRock X670E Steel Legend
  • Ryzen 7 7800X3D
  • 128 GB of G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo
  • Nvidia RTX 4090 Founders Edition
  • Bunch of NVMe storage
  • Fractal Design Meshify 2

I mostly emulate stuff or play 2D games, otherwise I’m working through my boomer shooter backlog.

i have similar.. less ram little bit slower cpu, but im stuck on playing this pixel art coloring book game.. just clicking squares to fill in the colors and eventually make a picture

[-] laziestflagellant@hexbear.net 12 points 3 days ago

I need the specs for playing Minecraft 😤

[-] makotech222@hexbear.net 11 points 3 days ago

this gonna be me in a week when my 9800x3d gets delivered

[-] Tomorrow_Farewell@hexbear.net 10 points 3 days ago

My Lenin-given PC specs are there for math. And 3D modelling.

[-] Luna@hexbear.net 9 points 3 days ago

Damn, Fire Emblem: 6 runs great on my beefy computer!

graphics card dies

Heyyyy, FE6, you're the only one still with me...

[-] geese_feces@hexbear.net 8 points 3 days ago

I've been playing LeafGreen on my PSP, almost ready to take on the elite four.

[-] Tom742@hexbear.net 5 points 3 days ago

Something about GBA on a PSP just feels right. That was my first emulation handheld, recently found a nice condition original thicc model and jail breaking that thing has been so simplified. I remember needing a paperclip last time I did that

[-] butter@midwest.social 7 points 3 days ago

Just emulate from your phone. It's super easy.

[-] crispy_lol@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago

4090 playing osrs and poke rom hacks
