I’m not talking about suspend resume. I’m talking about saving in the middle of a boss fight, and reloading back to the middle of boss fight if you can’t beat it.
Some people might say that’s cheating. But if you are facing a tough game, and you have limited time, save states can be really helpful for feeling like you were able to overcome a challenge, but in a manageable timeframe.
Or, just being able to skip thru repeating dialogue or cutscenes.
Save states are the only way I was able to get thru harder older games like mega man


I haven’t tried it myself. But, if time is your main constraint, and if a switch emulator has it, save states may be really helpful. Saving during the middle of a boss or puzzle can be a time saver. Restarting in the middle of a boss fight or puzzle so you don’t have to return to the beginning each time you screw up.


My takeaway is start planning trips to Taiwan so you can go buy comp hardware bit by bit at a reasonable price




I think that story contrasts well with some advice I saw from maybe Pirate Software. He said - younwant tonmake an engine if you want to do something specific that can’t be done with a stock engine. Animal well seems to fit the bill.



So they got a new patent after a competitor’s game comes out, and used that new patent to sue the competitor out of existence.
Fucking IP law is broken.


Dock + big ass fan directed at steam deck vents + overclock the steam deck?


Kinda diff. It’s just an influential Chinese story - well known in the country.

The Sun Wukong (Chinese: 孫悟空, pronounced [swə́n ûkʰʊ́ŋ]) is a literary and religious figure best known as one of the main characters in the 16th-century Chinese novel Journey to the West.[1]


I had fun with the Naruto fighting games. It’s $5 and if you watched the show it’s worth that.
Ive also heard great things about DBZ kakarot - let’s you play thru the entire storyline of the show.




They’re putting money on the table, refunding purchases. You never see game companies do that any more unless forced to by steam.


The mbkhd video of the fisker was rough. A whole bunch of minor annoyances and he calls it the worst thing he’s ever reviewed.


My understanding was that they were delisted because of potential incompatibilities relating to updated software


Am I right that android/iOS apps require much more maintenance than PC programs? I can load up a copy of WinZip from 2000 and it would work fine, but anything that hasn’t been updated in a few years might be hidden on the app store for not working with my version.
I think that’s the bigger issue. Developers can’t leave stuff up and just let it sit, because you need to maintain a developer acct to have anything listed, and os updates break things
