Now this has been done, the team have made the tools available to learn from. I’ve seen a lot of users in forums talking about how they’re planning to tackle other games from the same gen of gaming, so…I’d say given some time we’ll have a good chance of a lot of games getting the same treatment!!!

Pastel pretty colors?

Okay judging by all these anti-gray/beige comments I’m an outlier in what I find lovely, but even this looks nice to me!!!

I guess I have the fact that I wasnt alive for that ‘era’ of gaming, so its maybe a bit more fascinating to me to see a more utilitarian design over what we get now.

I dislike the move in PCs and consoles where everything has RGB (you’ll see it everywhere on SBC retro handhelds), or just looks garish. To me this boxy-box just looks BEAUTIFUL. Gray/beige hardware wins me over every time

I missed you too!!!

Thank you!!!

I’m still cross (not really tho) that when I reached out to you all last year, you never wanted me to interview you!!!

RetroDECK has been my one true emulation love for so long now, and I’ve adored all your recent updates. You should all be so proud! I went into a little more detail for the users here on RetroDECK on my latest news post here on Lemmy too!

<3

Check the link in my post, it links you to Russ (Retro Game Corps) new video on it, and he will detail how!

Or, I also write about it in a guide I made last year, here:

I’m sorry, that’s not really my scene! I haven’t ever played any PC racing games locally (which makes me seem rather sad, doesn’t it?)

I can recommend Mario Kart 8, emulated, for this though! Which might or might not be something you’d consider. Friends and I often play this through my Steam Deck or PC!

Hah!

You got it in one there. Thanks so much :)

I just hope the little, fun and interesting things I love to share keep on being interesting to others! And its nice to be here, I was very sad to leave Reddit towards the end of last year, and the Steam Deck community I built up there. Nice to see an alternative like this exists here (with nicer folk, so far!)

I appreciate it!

…well at least it’s prettier this time!

This is so sweet of you to say!

Really, this is fun for me. Its going to take all my resolve to not do this again in 24 hours (because, over saturation!), it just makes me happy to find what interests me.

I’m lucky to have found a place like this community, where it just so happens others find that same stuff (so far!) just as interesting!

Thanks for this, made me smile!

Make sure you check for a ‘Xenia compatilibility list’

This is a spreadsheet showing whether any particular games are working, and how well they work. Some don’t play at all, and some play perfectly!

I have 5 PS3 games installed on my Steam Deck, through RetroDECK right now that play perfectly, and a couple that required tweaks!

I do remember that Xenia (the 360 emulator!) plays Skate 3 perfectly, though!

Oh my Gosh the Steam Deck has been by far my fav gaming purchase. I was the same, rarely playing anything, looking for something new, but the convenience of this thing changed everything for me.

I adore how it plays to two strengths: for those who want a simple console-like experience, it works right away! And for those who want to tinker (me) - the sky is the limit!!

Look for my friend’s work if you decide to buy one, he makes something called Decky Loader. From there the customization is endless!

I love finding other GOG fans! They’re my absolute number one, and that tended to be my focus. I’ll keep it in mind that especially here, there’s more of us!

Thank you! So much! This is really helpful for reading through :)

Next time will be far prettier then, I pinkie-swear!!!

It’s definitely more polished and complete now! The dev also works hard, especially if a user has any little issues, they have a Discord and Git page all where help and previous issues are detailed and worked out step-by-step on a fix. There’s also a huge list on games which work via Legendary, and any tweaks users have reported to make games work are listed there on the Discord, too.

I’d be curious how you find it, after so much time has passed between the beta and now! Do update how you go! (I’ve shared that people have written comments here about Junk-Store, with Eben the dev (hi Eben), so I know he’ll be lurking here)

*ma’am!

You’re so welcome! It’s a bit of awful thing, writing up something like this and wondering if it’s going to go down okay (for me anyway!), but that might be a lot of the typical Reddit user responses tainting my previous experiences doing this kinda thing!

I’m glad the responses are positive here, you can count on this being a regular thing <3

Further:

• sadly no store pages are live yet to wishlist

• the release date is September 5th (for some reason skipping Judgement Day’s date?!)

I feel so heartbroken that I never got a sequel to Prey

Thank you so much!

It was bought by a crypto company that pushed aggressive monetization, and fired most of the original staff.

Constant nerfs to the original gameplay, invalidating months of users’ grind by removing (‘improving’) core mechanics.

This is why the popularity dropped, but as to their official announcement, it was very short on details. Just another failed game, sadly.
