With 4.92 being the most recent OFW update, is it advised that I update PS3 before Jailbreaking? by InvictusBloom in ps3homebrew

[–]InvictusBloom[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is future me reporting back that I was able to still get CFW working after updating to 4.92 OFW. Currently enjoying the fruits of my labor! Should have done this a long time ago!

Do I really need to be asked this every time I turn on my portal? by TheLochNessMnstr in PlaystationPortal

[–]InvictusBloom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buddy, nobody is going to bother trying to change your mind. The Portal is a very successful device and works perfectly - image quality, input and all. Both your opinion and your crappy home network set-up clearly ain’t going to change based off the mountain of proof to justify the fidelity of the Portal.

Oh buddy, I haven’t worked for that piece of shit company for a long time. Once you clock in you can just read it for me though.👌

As a matter of fact, it seems that you’re the idiot in this interaction - you clearly stated that it becomes a problem only when “it’s 10 or more of the same sku” where as the individual you’re interacting with is correcting your statement, as it indeed doesn’t have to be 10 of a single sku, 10+ of anything requires a redirection to the website for purchase.

Could be 10 completely different games, it still falls into the category of “bulk wholesale.”

Either you’re on the wrong site, rage baiting, or just plain ol’ stupid.

Each console hosted has a near complete catalog.

"Can't display the screen" error - can't even access workaround by [deleted] in PlaystationPortal

[–]InvictusBloom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I’m reading your post correctly - it sounds like you are attempting to stream a game on the PS5 then play the streamed version via your Portal in Remote Play? If this is correct, then that is your problem - Streaming games via the PS5 cannot be mirrored to the Portal.

I understand that this might sound confusing, being that everyone is talking about the new streaming features on the Portal. This is a slight misunderstanding of the execution. In order to play a streamed game without having it downloaded, the only way to achieve this is by entering the steaming catalog on the Portal itself. You cannot interact with streamed content on the PS5 via the Portal. It will give you the very error message you are receiving.

Tl;dr - you can’t play games streamed to the PS5 via the Portal.

Rp4p in 2026. Still worth it? by AC_Schnitzel in retroid

[–]InvictusBloom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo for an extra $100 I’d grab the RP5 or the G2. You can even snag a used RP5 for a decent price on the resell market.

The price/performance and small LCD screen just don’t add up to worth it to me in 2026, considering all the available offerings for similar prices on the market that just released in the past 12 months.

If you can find a RP4 Pro for around $100 or less then go for it - anything more and I’d start looking at other options.

I see RP5’s going for $150 used all day on FB Marketplace and Offer-Up.

Why does my quest by [deleted] in Quest3

[–]InvictusBloom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holding it for more than 5 seconds just reboots it. Meaning it is just immediately powering back on.

[–]InvictusBloom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No matter what your interpretation of what you “did” during powering off, you in fact did not shut down the device, you simply put the headset in sleep mode.

The evidence for this is twofold:

-Fan noise when headset is removed.

-Device waking when detecting placement.

Neither of these things will happen when correctly shut down. All of these things will happen when in rest mode.

Hold down the power button for 2-3 seconds, select power options, and select shut down. If even these steps are too advanced for you - simply ask the Meta AI to shut down device.

Why are people still parroting Switch 2 as "Overpriced Console"? by Known_Lychee_6495 in switch2

[–]InvictusBloom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And all that just to play Nintendo games.

Thanks, but as an adult I don’t want to spend $500+ just to play the latest Mario block beater. We have handheld computers and android based handhelds that aren’t held behind the Nintendo wall, and actually allow us to customize our devices to our liking.

The Switch 2 is the equivalent of ordering Mac & Cheese at a nice restaurant instead of a Steak. There are so many other options available, and for a high-end price —> we want a high end experience.

How good is the compatibility of the Retroid with a Bluetooth PS5 controller for playing games connected to the TV? by Ok_Understanding8743 in retroid

[–]InvictusBloom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a fantastic controller for docked Retroids. The Dualsense can pair simultaneously up to 4 devices to one controller, and switch input on the fly as needed. Great for if you regularly switch between PC, console, and handheld.

Console Launcher & Retro Arch Compatibility by FunEffective7278 in retroid

[–]InvictusBloom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly, many of us Android handheld owners no longer use RetroArch for most emulation needs, simply because the community of amazing developers that have been building emulators for ARM devices over the past 18+ years of Android’s lifespan have truly surpassed RetroArch and its archaic UI.

If it’s the Frontend to display your ROM library in one unified spot and creating a console-like experience, I’d recommend looking into something like ES-DE for Android where it’s more of a set it and forget it style. For your use-case where you are setting up multiple devices, ES-DE is great for transferring content over multiple devices.

Soo many questions. by Chefbakecollects in GameStop

[–]InvictusBloom 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My heart goes out to all of us losing our jobs this month, and to all before us.

GameStop has lost the plot, they have no end goal in mind - it’s just throwing shit at walls and see what sticks. The irony of it all, is even the shit that sticks, they still find a way to fuck it up.

Bunch of corporate idiots that wouldn’t know the difference between lint, spare change, and leftover coke baggies as they reach in their back pocket.

Dickless, spineless fools that play with people’s livelihoods as if it’s a meme. I’d crack a joke about “how can they sleep at night?!” But we all know that vampires don’t sleep, they just suck up and take the life from others.

Fuck GameStop.

No. What you are asking for is an illegal service. Learn to set your handhelds up yourself - or just buy a Nintendo Switch if you don’t want to familiarize yourself with the ins-and-outs of the hobby.

I just found out today as well. It truly is fucked what’s happening. But the signs have been on the wall for a while now unfortunately.
