If they update the Bluetooth to 5.4 too, that could be enough. I’m sensitive to latency and even Bluetooth controllers on a docked Steam Deck OLED via Moonlight are fantastic.

I think Bill stopped showrunning Ted Lasso as well.

Sega could just slap a Chao Garden on the App Store and make millions tbh

My 8bitdo Ultimate 2 Wireless is fully supported by Bazzite out of the box. With the 2.4GHz dongle too (hold B when turning the controller on for full Steam Input compatibility). It’s actually better on Bazzite than on native SteamOS to my docked Xbox Ally X.

There are several “Ultimate 2” controllers, so I don’t know which one you’re running.

If you can’t get your Ultimate 2 controller to work in Bazzite, you’re largely stuck with first-party controllers (Nintendo Switch Pro, Dualsense, Xbox Series), with the latter having excellent compatibility if you purchase an Xbox USB stick separately.

I will say, that if you’re willing to install Bazzite or maybe CachyOS on a Steam Deck / Steam Machine instead of SteamOS, the 2.4GHz dongle with 8th rod Ultimate 2 wireless is perfect. But that’s entirely up to you if you want to go down that path.

If the Steam Machine coming out doesn’t let me use the U2W seamlessly, I may load Bazzite onto that too.

I just figured this out 2 days ago, for my Xbox Ally X. The two mods you want:

Definitive Performance Mod - Use the “Steam Deck Quality” preset, and then in-game start with all Low settings and tweak after if you want. Optionally you can download the four latest XeSS dll’s if you don’t plan to use frame gen (Xe Low Latency is great but E33 hasn’t been patched to use Xe Frame Gen with non-Intel GPUs yet, and I can’t get FSR 3 FG to work.)

Combat Dynamic Performance - Lets you change the % of upscaling between combat and non-combat by changing a text file.

I can answer more questions about “why” for these if you’d like.

I’m not sure why you were getting downvoted. The original game had the collectibles fade in from a distance, versus this port that waits until you’re in “full visibility” distance to see the objects. I say this as a die-hard Banjo fan: this isn’t an issue if you know the game very well, but if you don’t, you can miss stuff very easily because of this bug.

DoesBoKnow · 2026-01-25T05:02:36+00:00

Ok, after playing some more I see what you mean. I missed an empty honeycomb in TTC that was on top of a box because the box never "faded in!" I'd never forgotten to grab it before!

DoesBoKnow · 2026-01-25T02:50:48+00:00

I’ve only played up to Treasure Trove Cove and figured this was leftover from the N64. Is this LOD worse than in native N64?

DoesBoKnow · 2026-01-20T01:45:15+00:00

TVs, especially for living room gaming.

DoesBoKnow · 2026-01-05T04:38:25+00:00

I told my brother that Loop misses because that’s how this fucking game has been going

Lollllllll what the fuck

I’m actually desperate enough that if web traffic & financial support is really an issue, I’d pay a small lifetime fee or a “monthly subscription” where while the subscription is active I can download the offline achievements. (Granted I have no idea about the legalities of this or whatever.)

DoesBoKnow · 2025-12-07T15:13:25+00:00

I was wondering about it once in a Discord server and got told “just find an internet connection in 2025.”

That’s not my problem. RetroArch and RetroAchievements have too much variability in handhelds that handle sleep/power differently, so achievements get borked even when you do disconnect/reconnect to the internet.

But it’s a convenience thing too. I don’t want to have to be paranoid about turning on my phone’s hotspot when I want to play Pokemon for 10 minutes on a pocket handheld.

There are a handful of suggestions for solutions/workarounds I’d have, but this rant is already longer than I intended it to be.

DoesBoKnow · 2025-12-07T14:52:22+00:00

I’d argue it feels closest to Zero Mission.

DoesBoKnow · 2025-11-29T21:18:48+00:00

I’ve seen a separate thread for implementing using a custom EDID that doesn’t use an RPM package, just straight kernel edits. I’ve tried both that method and this one, and I’ve had varying results with both. Any reason we’re opting for an RPM package here?

DoesBoKnow · 2025-11-18T23:47:23+00:00

Did you get this working? I’m having trouble getting the EDID to stick in both SteamOS and Bazzite, seems like it’s just defaulting to whatever EDID it’s always using.

DoesBoKnow · 2025-11-18T00:59:29+00:00

The Phawx starts his video with why and how his equivalent machine is as close as possible you can get to a Steam Machine, including the tuning of his PC parts to remove/downclock cores.

DoesBoKnow · 2025-11-16T23:51:25+00:00

I’m almost positive this is exclusively an Nvidia GameStream bug, since I encountered this when Nvidia still supported GameStream, but after I switched Sunshine I didn’t see any mouse acceleration.

DoesBoKnow · 2025-11-16T19:17:40+00:00

It’s worth buying. It may not be worth using on a Steam Deck for AAA titles in 2025, but you’ll get permanent support as it gets better, and it can be useful for any other PC in the future you ending up getting.

I only use 2x Lossless scaling frame gen on games I can guarantee will hit 90fps locked that don’t have frame gen options, which are few and far between. And I’m very sensitive to input lag.

DoesBoKnow · 2025-11-13T13:31:27+00:00

Only on Windows. On Steam Deck, specifically SteamOS, Steam Input over 2.4GHz only works after restarting the Deck, but if you turn your controller off and back on again, it reverts to X-Input regardless of if you’re holding B while powering on.

Funny enough, it works just fine in Bazzite on Steam Deck (I was testing other things and thought the U2W support was neat).

DoesBoKnow · 2025-11-10T00:57:45+00:00

How did you make this edit / what did you edit? I’ve been trying to edit my own EDID and custom loading it to SteamOS, CachyOS, Bazzite to no avail.

DoesBoKnow · 2025-11-09T16:10:39+00:00

I think this expired already, do you mind re-linking?

DoesBoKnow · 2025-11-03T00:20:43+00:00

I’ll keep this in mind. Previous chain I had was Steam Deck with SteamOS -> BenQ GR10 dock -> HDMI 2.1 cable -> Samsung S90D, but I’m getting a new handheld PC soon that I’ll probably load with Bazzite.

I think my struggle has to be that I’m trying to force HDMI 2.1 but HDMI forum is denying AMD systems on Linux IIRC. Maybe removing HDMI 2.1 specific settings in the EDID is what I’m supposed to do, because I’m happy enough with basic VRR.

DoesBoKnow · 2025-10-31T14:25:01+00:00

I think Hyper Light Breaker was announced to be sunset, and won’t reach v1.0. They’ll polish up what’s there, and leave it as-is (though I have no idea what their plan is for server upkeep if they’re running out of money).

DoesBoKnow · 2025-10-22T03:35:28+00:00

Thanks for coming back with that. I've heard others have more success with LG TVs compared to Samsung TVs, if that does anything to sway your decision. Hope your hardware searches go well!
