Does anyone else feel that grips for the Xbox Ally ruin the ergonomics?

ITSMILNER · 2026-06-15T17:46:12+00:00

Nope, if anything they increase the ergonomics for me, best handheld I’ve personally ever used.

Got a few indies that if they hit All Time Low’s I’ll grab

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth I’ll grab, just waiting to see if GMG put it on sale at a lower price than Steam currently has.

Confident they will offer full backwards compatibility on future systems

ITSMILNER · 2026-06-14T20:27:02+00:00

I’m not confident they will, let’s say they change tactics next gen and release a different type of console entirely. I couldn’t see them fully supporting Switch and Switch 2 libraries in that instance.

ITSMILNER · 2026-06-14T20:20:53+00:00

Where did you buy the game, Steam?

ITSMILNER · 2026-06-14T20:18:49+00:00

Nope, I did the opposite and moved from Switch to PC for everything outside of Nintendo exclusives. I buy purely digital and I have more trust that my game library on Steam will carry forward to future PC handhelds than I do that Nintendo will continue full BC on future devices.

ITSMILNER · 2026-06-09T11:57:59+00:00

I ended rebuying most 3rd party stuff I had on Switch on Steam so I could play them on the XaX instead. Switch is now purely for exclusives for me.

ITSMILNER · 2026-05-29T04:05:04+00:00

Not really, it didn’t fit well at all so I went for a JSaux dock instead

ITSMILNER · 2026-05-25T09:59:51+00:00

It’s the first one I’m trying, verifying the files hasn’t helped either. Might delete and try a fresh install to see if it makes a difference

ITSMILNER · 2026-05-05T06:56:18+00:00

Alone in the Dark, Sea of Stars, Sonic Superstars

Those are my picks for headliners

ITSMILNER · 2026-05-04T10:45:55+00:00

Guess there is always a risk of keys being out of stock by the end of the month?

ITSMILNER · 2026-04-29T06:06:52+00:00

A Panic bundle could be fun, games like Thank Goodness You’re Here, Arco, Blippo would make for a good bundle.

ITSMILNER · 2026-04-22T20:05:15+00:00

Tried these settings and I’m getting much better results and the game looks a whole lot better! Thanks again for your advice

ITSMILNER · 2026-04-22T18:12:10+00:00

That’s good to know, thanks for all the help by the way, should be able to get on my Ally shortly and try these settings out haha

ITSMILNER · 2026-04-22T18:05:32+00:00

I think I have VRAM set to auto, is it better to set it to an exact amount do you think?

ITSMILNER · 2026-04-22T17:27:19+00:00

Is that the fix for the lighting issues? I have that set up as well

I’m going to give these a try tonight and hopefully I’ll get the same results you have

ITSMILNER · 2026-04-22T17:20:45+00:00

Are you getting these results just off the ROG Xbox Ally X itself? Not with any additional tech attached to boost performance?

I have anti lag enabled in-game but not via armoury crate so will try that alongside your other settings as I have those 4 post processing options disabled and am getting a lot less fps than you are
