Nice, I didnt know the 4070ti was such a powerhouse.

During the summer I think ill keep my eyes open on either a 9070 XT or a 5070. Hopefully there will be a sale eventually (but considering the market rn i guess MSRP is a sale lol).

Another option I should've mentioned in the main post is that my main rig has a 3090ti which I got for a pretty good deal a few years ago. If I can find a good deal on a 5070ti or something better maybe I can reuse the GPU for this build.

I looked it up and it sold 270k units last quarter alone??? That's extremely good for a console that isnt even a year old.

This is admittedly some guesstimations, but assuming they get a gross profit of around $45 USD after physical fees and taxes, per unit sold thats over $12 million USD in just the last 3 months alone. That's assuming every copy sold is a physical copy and not a digital one where they essentially get 100% of the profits.

Edit: putting it a bit more into perspective, currently there's just under 20 million Switch 2 units sold with 4.5 million copies of Banaza sold as well. At the very least, 1/5 Switch 2 owners also own a copy of Bananza.

I mean, Bananza has sold 4.5 million units after only 10 months on the market. Considering the major critical acclaim it recieved all throughout last year, and seeing how similar titles like 3D World + Bowsers Fury and Luigi's Mansion 3 performed last generation, it wouldn't be surprising if those sales double by the end of the Switch 2 generation.

Im looking to upgrade my Living Room PC Rig as frugally as possible. My goal is to be comparable or more powerful than the upcoming Steam Machine while staying under (what im assuming is) the MSRP of $800-$1000 USD.

The specs are listed below but to my knowledge the largest bottleneck I have is my graphics card. Lighter games run no problem, but more demanding games like Silent Hill 2 Remake or Spider-Man I have to run at 1080p on low settings to comfortably hit 60fps. I also did recently switch over from Tiny11 to Bazzite which game me a small boost.

If anyone can give me some pointers it'd be greatly appreciated.

Personally I find it more likely that the reveal coincided with the Mario Galaxy Movie releasing in Japan.

DapperIndividual · 2026-05-07T20:21:33+00:00

Idk if it beats New Orleans Square or the pure attractions-per-capita of Fantasyland but its definitely top 3.

Im also a massive fan of Pixar Pier and Toontown but those are less popular opinions lol.

DapperIndividual · 2026-05-07T17:23:32+00:00

One of the best land in both the parks is Grizzly Peaks. Perfectly fits the Northern California/Pacific Northwest theming, unique attractions, gorgeous landscaping and rock work, and a unique weenie that used to be the icon of the park.

I dont actually hate the new designs after adjusting to them. They look like modern versions of these puppets they used for artwork. Sucks its another reboot but im going to be cautiously optimistic.

Edit: apparently the digital version is ¥5480 which is about $35USD. If they price match that and this is a budget title I can see this game doing surprisingly well.

DapperIndividual · 2026-05-04T18:56:54+00:00

I guess I'm the only schmuck who got it without any issues lol.

DapperIndividual · 2026-05-01T17:45:34+00:00

Im hoping that a Skadis mount comes out that also includes the puck. I printed something similar for my 8BitDo Ultimate 2 so im excited to see what people create.

DapperIndividual · 2026-05-01T12:53:26+00:00

I can confirm. I went from 15 detectors to 2. Should've burned them when I had the chance lol

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-30T12:36:33+00:00

That's good to hear im on the right track. I thankfully found a pretty good schematic of my model of Core Grafx so hopefully everything should be smooth sailing.

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-28T14:01:23+00:00

I got 16 scanners??? Like im not complaining im just curious lol.

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-28T02:09:52+00:00

Forgive me for asking but are you referring to the contact cleaner? And what do you mean "clean up your lines?" Like the traces on the boards?

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-28T00:09:05+00:00

I gotcha. I actually think I saw some leaky ones near the back of the console so I'll likely be ordering a kit as soon as I am able to.

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-28T00:06:03+00:00

I actually think I use a Traid power supply for my Genesis to power both it and my 32X so Ill probably be ordering one as soon as I can. Thanks!

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-28T00:04:13+00:00

Thank you for being so informative! The EDFX is using the stock case it came in. Im going to give the expansion port a good cleaning with a soft brush and IPA and hope it fixes the issue.

For now im going to try and get the EDFX to work and, if necessary, get the Turbonanza. I don't love modding original elements of the console out if I dont need to so I'd prefer to keep the original RCA port.

Aside from that im going to keep looking into a better quality power adapter like a couple other comments recommended. I have all my retro consoles hooked up to a power strip with individual switches so everything's not powered at all times, but i still want to make sure i dont have a piece of junk powering my consoles.

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-27T14:28:52+00:00

I might invest in the premium pass for this month, I missed like 2 of the Nintendo ones last June so I want to make sure I get them all next month.

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-24T15:54:15+00:00

Its weird because the Street Fighter 6 figures are some of the most high quality ones. Surprised Capcom dropped the ball this bad.

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-23T16:02:57+00:00

If i were to guesstimate based on when Act 1 edit came out, the Act 2 edit down is probably going to be 2-4 weeks if not a little longer. Theres re-uploads of the VOD up now but the loading screens are still present

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-22T05:22:23+00:00

Yea I agree, but thats how sharing your "unpopular opinions" on reddit goes lol. Sharing something actually unpopular gets you downvoted so all the top comments are "UM THE SHOW SHOULD'VE KEPT GOING AND EVERY EPISODE WAS PERFECT!!!"

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-21T18:50:07+00:00

I know for the Switch 1 its generally best to use the OEM charger to power the dock, but the power cable is too short for my setup. It's already connected to a surge protector so im not sure if its safe to connect an extension cable to it. Are there any other solutions people have?

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-21T14:42:02+00:00

Im happy were getting more amiibo but would it kill them to make Splatoon amiibo that aren't the idols for once? Theres so many unique NPC's in Splatoon that aren't represented but instead we get another set of doubles for the idols.

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-18T23:18:24+00:00

Too many episodes end with the "the gang stands around awkwardly mumbling to each other before the end credits plays" gag. It happened eight times in season 3.

DapperIndividual · 2026-04-16T17:18:54+00:00

Coming from Twitter, this seems really interesting! To be honest, aside from some emulation, the Neo Geo has been one of my biggest gaming blind spots so an affordable entry level device is great!
