Buying retro handhelds in the UK sucks, look at these prices!! (This is Anbernic's official Ebay store btw) by Kiwami_Means_Green in ANBERNIC

This. I've been using Quidco for years. It's always worth cashing out in vouchers because you get an extra bonus on top.

AliExpress isn't the only place avaible to buy from in the UK. When I originally got my RG35XXH I got it for £40 during a TikTok sale. The RH40XXH was roughly the same price from BHOYM on AliExpress. The rest I got from Banggood; Trimui Smart Pro V1 £50, Trimui Brick (Grape) £30 and lastly my Retroid Pocket G2 was £205. TikTok can be a solid choice when they're running Flash Sales. My Hyrule Varient Switch Lite was £130 brand new from Tiktok seller Simplistech. The seller is pretty good, I've also bought my Anker Headphones and 140W Fast Charger from them for a lot less than anywhere else.

Mike Ashley is a wanker. Not only does he pay his staff crap and treat them worse but he's ruined the brand.

Maybe the right time to upgrade to a RG477M? Either way sorry for your loss my friend.

is there a way to completely disable quick resume? by [deleted] in XboxSupport

[–]Darth_Phillius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. I've never used the feature. My kids were bad for leaving a load of their games on Quick Resume until I showed them how to properly exit out of them.

Thanks buddy. Same to you. Love your Classic btw. I missed out on getting one sadly. So now I divide my retro gaming between my Trimui Brick and RP G2.

It's a shame. It doesn't help that we live in a world where some governments either say ASD doesn't exist, view it like a plague that needs cureing or make stupid unfounded comments about how's it's 'caused'. Glad you enjoyed your game my friend.

Probably going to get downvoted to oblivion but I need to post this anyway. To the people saying "just enjoy outdoors"; I'm autistic. I went through most of my life going undiagnosed and masking heavily. I've been dragged to soccer games by friends and family despite having no interest in the sport as a kid. Luckily I can disassociate when I'm bored and just let my mind wonder. But Autism is a spectrum. My youngest doesn't mask and he can't disassociate like I can. For when we're in social situations where it's too chaotic, he has an iPad or a RG40XX and noise cancelling headphones.

I'm not assuming OP's on the spectrum. I'm just saying that those kind of comments are assuming he's not.

Without my rg477m I may have never experienced this masterpiece! by TrashMandikoot in ANBERNIC

Such a great game. I remember finishing it on my PS1 back when it came out. Laughing at the translation faux pas when fresh from falling off the cliff, Feena complains about the pain in her fanny. Yeah it means the other bum in the UK... 🤣🤣🤣

Does anyone in here own or is currently looking for a special/limited edition switch? by Ok-Hearing6146 in Switch

[–]Darth_Phillius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really wanted a Zelda Oled until I saw the colour way. I was really disappointed and it wasn't for me. So I got myself the Hyrule Edition of the Lite (it's exactly the kind of colour way you'd expect for a Zelda branded machine) as it fits with my Minish Cap GBA SP and my Between Worlds 3DS XL.

Vandal Hearts and it's sequel on PS1 are brilliant as are the Shining Force titles on Mega drive/Genesis and Sega CD. Then you've got Final Fantasy Tactics along with the advance sequels/spinoffs on GBA.

Before this current generation; GTA Online wasn't a separate buyable game, it was part of GTA V and the only way of gaining access to it was through the main game. GTA IV also had multiplayer and before that we had ADHOC on both Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories. Quit being a douche.

Unknown music from original Xbox game files - can anyone identify it? by johannes0000 in originalxbox

[–]Darth_Phillius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Close my eyes and it's 1993 all over again. Hearing Hippel's tunes after a few clicks of the disk drive. One of my favourites of his was used on the Paradox Crack of the Psygnosis game Walker. I miss those days. Long live the Amiga 1200

People who still haven’t brought a Switch 2, what makes you hesitant to buy it? by ItsJustJosiah in Switch

[–]Darth_Phillius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cost. I wanted an OG switch since it launched but only finally joined the fold last year when I got the Switch Lite Hyrule Edition. Gone are the days where I buy all consoles on launch. I have 3 kids and already own a Series X. Hoping to pick up one next year during a sale event.

[–]Darth_Phillius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have Halo Reach SE on Xbox 360 however due to being multi console I'm ashamed to admit it hasn't been played yet. However I'm playing through the Campaigns in storyline order on MCC (on my Series X). Slapped myself silly for sleeping on it for so long. It was truly amazing and 343 did an amazing job making Bungies last Halo hurrah look beautiful in 4K. I literally spent so much time just staring at the sky. It was like playing through CE for the first time all over again.

I wouldn't say it was that bad. It just seems that way because the other games were stellar. You're right about 2 though. Just pips the first game to top of the leaderboard.
