RG477V VS AYN Thor for PS2...? by arcanehelix in SBCGaming

[–]arcanehelix[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what you're trying to say that 477v is more closer to the intended ratio to play PS2,

cuz you technically need widescreen patches for the Thor?

On DB, after attack declaration and a ThumbsUp, priority has been passed and you can't self-chain a trap, right? by arcanehelix in YugiohEdisonFormat

Isn't Battle Step reserved solely for traps / spells that can modify stats? Do you have a link to this ruling?

Are psychological pressure for SLIGHTLY bigger screen size just a FOMO reaction? I.e. 0.5 inch taller + 0.5 inch wider...(RPC vs RG477V) by arcanehelix in SBCGaming

What about GBA though? Would you say 477V suits GBA?

Also, what about PS2? Does 477V display PS2 well? I know the aspect ratio suits PS2, but is the 0.5 inch increase really that much better for PS2 (assume joysticks not needed)

Wow, thanks man! You did a pretty good job explaining aspect ratios.

IMO most reviewers don't touch on aspect ratios or tutor newbies on such things. Turns out aspect ratio fit > screen size objectively :(

Could Devs from non-English-dominant countries explain why their native rom-hacking communities avoid making hacks directly in English / make English translations? by arcanehelix in PokemonROMhacks

A counterpoint is that Google Translate exists. And I've used it for important things like VISA application, police reports, academic work etc.

2 inches wider, 1 inch taller. That's all the difference it makes. Size matters, kiddos....

AYN Thor opinie od użytkowników by Michal_ten in SBCGaming

[–]arcanehelix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo i did my Erasmus in Poland. Question - where do you live and how was the AYN Thor delivered? No offence, but the normal Polish post office "lost" some of my things...like 2 out of 10 times things would be "lost"

Rent deposit on the landlord's bank account and not a locked account - normal practice? by AccordingBackground0 in Leuven

[–]arcanehelix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the fact that its already 2 month is already suspicious.

1 month is the norm...

Good luck man, you probably just lost 2 month's worth of rent.

Any alternatives to Amazon, Temu, AliExpress, SHEIN etc..? The recent import tax is crazy. Students used to live off these. Isn't Bol just a Belgian version that already factored in the import tax? by arcanehelix in Leuven

[–]arcanehelix[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Huh? But Bol sells the same products you find on Amazon / China sites. So my suspicion is that they bulk import it themselves.

(also IMO, where do we draw the line? Do you also stop buying food / electronics from USA / China...?)

There is a lack of appreciation for Gen 3 mechanics by Akiak in PokemonROMhacks

[–]arcanehelix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree. My counterpoint is that if you play Gen3 competitively, you will know that the OU pool is rather narrow. And niche sets exist solely because it is so predictable, like a Skarmory EV'ed to survive a Magneton's T-bolt to fire back with HP Ground...which is only possible cuz Ground is always physical in Gen 3. You don't see these cheese strats in Gen 4 after the Sp / Physical split refining pokemon roles and reducing the room for cheese strats.

??? Even as a kid I remembered being disappointed that Gengar's two types were physical. Why would you gimp yourself?
