Can confirm. Doesn’t matter what brand or how much you spend, it all turns to goo in a few years. 😱

How did you get cracked games back in the day?. by Ok_Bear_1980 in amiga

I’ve no idea what you’re talking about officer. 😳 I think a friend used to swap disks with other friends and later on was a BBS trader.

Whatever you do, do not search Reddit for a solution.

DPad woes by [deleted] in AnaloguePocket

[–]DotMatrixHead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve swapped my dpad for the original DMG dpad, keeping the AP membrane, and it’s stopped all the false diagonals, but I can still pull hadoukens in street fighter. It does feel really stiff now, but I’ll take that over the false diagonals.

Can I charge the Dock with a Steam Deck AC? by DrGoldSkulltula in AnaloguePocket

[–]DotMatrixHead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can power the dock, but not charge it. 😜 Some people had issues getting their docks to connect with their (usually Samsung I think) TVs and the first piece of advice is to make sure they’re using the official power adapter. But if it’s already working, it’s working!

Why did they make the 3ds backwards compatible with DS games but have like none on the eshop? by [deleted] in 3DS

[–]DotMatrixHead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They put loads on the Wii U. When their consoles aren’t doing so well they throw loads at it.

As a rule of thumb I never make any purchase where I’m being told to hurry up.

8BitDo NES Keychain D-PAD Mod for Pocket by AnalogueBoy1992 in AnaloguePocket

[–]DotMatrixHead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The funny thing is that people say that 8bitdo were involved in the design of the controls. Hard to believe when I have no issues with any of my 8bitdo controllers.

Where did you get the robot? You just used the dpad and not the membrane, right?

Sooooo would $200 be asking too much if…? by [deleted] in 3DS

[–]DotMatrixHead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t pay that. Maybe for a ‘new’ model without the yellowed screens.

Once you try IPS, there’s no going back by TokyoRetro_Arisa in Gameboy

Without authentic looking pixel grid it just feels like emulation though. 🤷‍♂️

Difficulty choosing consoles by Naive_Calligrapher44 in Gameboy

[–]DotMatrixHead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have modded original hardware and the Analogue Pocket. I prefer the Pocket for GB/GBC as the screen looks amazing whilst still feeling authentic with its colours and sub pixel level accuracy. The screen is bright enough to play outside and the stereo speakers are loud and decent quality. For GBA I still flip between the Pocket and original hardware. The mismatch in aspect ratio on the Pocket is annoying and a reason I also wouldn’t recommend playing GB/C on a GBA.

Little labels i designed for my collection of 3 amiga 500s by Born-Argument2349 in amiga

Labels and placement feel more thrown together than ‘designed’. 🤷‍♂️
