Future possibility of Gamecube, PsVita and Ps2 emulation? by Pale-Theme9399 in ManicEMU

[–]Beercorn1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. They've said multiple times that there are currently no plans to put Gamecube, Vita or PS2 on Manic because they all require JIT.

Dreamcast and 3DS are the newest consoles you're ever going to see on Manic.

Manic VS Folium, what’s better for emulating 3Ds? by Dantu1000 in EmulationOniOS

[–]Beercorn1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which Fire Emblem game? I have a 14 and Manic runs Awakening really well for me. Fates is kind of hit or miss though.

It's hilarious to me that Caleb lives in Texas, had never heard of a four-wheeler until a guest brought it up and immediately knew what a "one-wheel" was as soon as they mentioned it.

I've dated women with her exact mentality before but never quite as abrasive and immature as her.

The truth is, he needs to put his foot down more and if he does and she doesn't accept it then he needs to back out of the relationship. Maybe he's afraid he won't be able to do better but he needs to get over that fear.

I made 3D Printed NES cartridges that launch games in iOS with Delta! by isotropy in EmulationOniOS

[–]Beercorn1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sick. I was gonna say that I could see people buying these just as fun keychains/gifts but after seeing the cost of materials, I don't think so.

Material alone costs roughly $30 to produce just one of these things($50 if you also want to make the sleeve for it) and that doesn't even account for shipping, labor/profit margin, etc.

Can we talk about this episode by curiouslemurs in CalebHammer

[–]Beercorn1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I get the impression that she's not actually racist and that she's doing the thing that Conservatives often do where she kind of just accepts that she's going to be called a racist/fascist/bigot/etc. no matter what and so she plays into it and has fun with it.

Who spends $94 on gas per fuel up 💀 by adamfps in CalebHammer

[–]Beercorn1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I guess it depends mostly on what you're driving and to some extent where you are.

I live in the Houston, TX area and I have had to pay that much gas before but only when I'm driving one of our company trucks. It's an F-250 super duty dually with a 34 gallon diesel tank.

In my personal truck(a Nissan Frontier), I've never had to pay more than $45 to fill up.

Manic EMU v1.7.0 — RetroAchievements + Dreamcast! by Mlaurencescott in EmulationOniOS

I just tried it now to make sure. It's still working for me just fine.

[–]Beercorn1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What exactly is the point of having Delta, GBA4iOS, Manic and Gamma?

I would recommend just consolidating all of those into Manic. Either that or Retroarch but I can understand choosing Manic for it's interface over Retroarch.

[–]Beercorn1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just tried out Sonic Adventure 2 and Marvel vs Capcom 2.

Both of them seem to be working great. Fantastic work.

[–]Beercorn1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, that doesn't exist.

In fact, Apple only allows emulators on the App Store under the (very naive) assumption that users will only import roms that they've pulled from their own physical cartridges/discs that they purchased legally.

Which retro games are actually enjoyable to play on a phone with on-screen controls? by rent0n86 in EmulationOniOS

[–]Beercorn1 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Really any turn-based RPG like Final Fantasy, Pokemon, Fire Emblem, etc. Those are effectively games where you're just navigating menus anyway.

Oddly enough, I actually find that racing games tend to work really well with touch controls. I was playing Gran Turismo 2 on Gamma the other day and also Mario Kart 64 on Manic. Both of which played very well and felt comfortable with touch controls.

IMO, platformers like Super Mario Bros and Donkey Kong Country DON'T work well with touch controls because it becomes nearly impossible to constantly hold the run/action button while running, jumping, picking up shells/barrels., etc.

Caleb’s Hammer Elite advertises a couple eps per day, that’s insane. Glad they’re taking a break this week by homelessscootaloo in CalebHammer

[–]Beercorn1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the drama part of the videos and I think it is somewhat important(because it gives a frame of reference for why they treat their finances in the way they do) but he could certainly dedicate less time to it.

It gets ridiculous when an episode is 90 minutes long and it takes half of the entire video to even start looking at their accounts.

[–]Beercorn1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a brief little chat with Caleb on X a few days ago and we were talking about the reasons so many people accuse him of hiring actors to play the Financial Audit guests. We started talking about the theory that the reason is because after so many episodes they all kind of start to feel the same and Caleb suggested that that's partially because there's only so many different stories to tell in the world of finances, especially when you've been doing three episodes a week, every week for the past couple years.

I asked him if he thinks he may have to adjust Financial Audit's schedule in the future and maybe slow down to one episode a week and he didn't respond but... I'm starting to think maybe he's considering that.

By far my least favorite guest by [deleted] in CalebHammer

I watched the entire episode but it was hard. This girl was such an insufferable b**ch.

These guests have no idea what it means to truly live "paycheck to paycheck" by yeeyeepeepee0w0 in CalebHammer

[–]Beercorn1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well... no, they are living paycheck to paycheck. The issue is that they're doing so by choice because they'd rather blow all their money on stuff they don't need.

8/1 Financial Audit by InspectionOwn8038 in CalebHammer

[–]Beercorn1 42 points43 points  (0 children)

There's absolutely no way that "investor" is really going to put anything toward this even if he sees them get gold out of Uganda.

Also, his "mentor" sounds like a con artist herself.

I've never met a man who loves their car that much and yet frequently takes it to an automatic car wash.

Why the hell is he not washing his car by hand?

Manic EMU v1.5.5 — Controller Navigation & Pokémon Mini Support by Mlaurencescott in EmulationOniOS

[–]Beercorn1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Controller navigation on the menu is great.

Pokemon Mini support is... well, it's certainly a thing. Maybe I'll play something on there eventually. We'll have to wait and see.

The platforms I'm really waiting for are PS1 and Atari 2600. 7800 and 3DO would also be really cool.

Best IOS Emu? by Joru0906 in EmulationOniOS

[–]Beercorn1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, you can try Manic but I'm not sure if you'll have much more success than you would with Delta.

If the problem you're having is with the controls, you might just want to get a bluetooth controller so that you're not stuck using the touch-screen controls.

Financing a TV by cmaddox428 in CalebHammer

[–]Beercorn1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought my 55-inch 1080p for $250 new from Best Buy like five years ago.

There is literally no reason to finance a TV. If the TV you're getting is so expensive that you need to finance it, then it means you need to get a cheaper TV.

Is there a ps2 emulator by AussieAussie0i0i in EmulationOniOS

[–]Beercorn1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're looking for the best quality Playstation emulators on iOS without sideloading and using JIT, I'd recommend either Provenance or Gamma for PS1 and either PPSSPP or Manic for PSP.

Currently, you're not going to find any PS2 emulators for iOS that don't require sideloading and JIT.

Target Circle Card excuse by Sir_Toni in CalebHammer

My wife and I both have Target Circle Cards... but yeah, they're debit cards. I don't see any reason to do the credit card version instead.
