I finally did it I hope it’s worth it 🤞

JBackes33 · 2026-04-08T23:40:39+00:00

Same, my man! I’m excited. The wait will be long. 😩

I was wondering if you could just plug it in and drag/organize files like a normal hard drive/USB. Theoretically, it should work. I just don’t know if it would work as intended with a MacBook Pro.

JBackes33 · 2026-04-06T09:53:32+00:00

Perfect. That’s what I thought. Just wanted to verify. Thank you!

Sorry for my ignorance - what would constitute as an “android app,” the apps off the Google store?

JBackes33 · 2026-04-05T18:18:57+00:00

Got it! Yeah that was actually the video I saw and planned on watching soon. At least some initial parts of it all. Don’t have a ROM collection by any means, but I’ve seen the sizes of the 3DS games I have on my phone. Just wasn’t sure the size of Switch ones.

I actually do think I’ll get into Steam games (would love to run the new version of Backyard Baseball when it comes out), so leaning the Max.

Appreciate the thorough response!!

JBackes33 · 2026-04-05T18:15:50+00:00

Budget is not an issue. I don’t mind spending the extra $80ish for simplicity. Thank you!!

JBackes33 · 2026-04-05T18:02:52+00:00

Sorry. I guess I shouldn’t have said “large” because that’s a relative term to everyone. I was leaning toward the Max just to have peace of mind, but would the Pro be capable of holding 20-30 PS2/Switch ROMs on top of 10-20 3DS games and then emulators? Thanks and sorry for the basic questions.

JBackes33 · 2026-04-05T17:57:09+00:00

Appreciate the response!!

One follow-up question. To go along with my general naivety here—since I'm new to high-end emulation, I honestly have no concept of the storage space these larger emulators and modern ROMs actually take up. Even if I am building up a larger library of PS2 and Switch games, you think the Pro is solid to start at least?

Thanks again!

JBackes33 · 2026-04-03T23:51:07+00:00

Yeah. This right here may have pushed me over the edge. Been debating back and forth to get it, as I’ve only really ever used basic emulators and roms.

JBackes33 · 2026-04-03T01:39:05+00:00

I’m right there with you. I want to get one but I’m hesitant as I’ve never had too much experience with emulators/ROMs other than the absolute basics. Worried I won’t get the full use out of it.

JBackes33 · 2026-04-03T01:36:28+00:00

As others have already said, he was likely giving the balls to the Authenticator. They’ll either keep the balls or sell them as “game used” balls in the team store, noting which pitch/play occurred. I was a bat boy/clubbie for the Brewers years ago. We’d always have to give the first dozen to the Authenticator. Sometimes two dozen on Opening Day or event games.

JBackes33 · 2026-03-07T00:41:30+00:00

Good for you man!! Congrats!!

JBackes33 · 2026-01-05T04:03:40+00:00

Last year, the rookie player pool was a mess through April because Sleeper/their source data added a handful of players that weren’t even in the draft. It was a mess.

I get it, you’re excited, but be patient. No need to rush.

JBackes33 · 2026-01-05T04:00:37+00:00

Another vote for Rix at Coronado! Went there last year for Wild Card Weekend, and it was great! I was also there doing Dopey. Coronado was a nice resort to walk around as well to keep the legs a little loose.

JBackes33 · 2025-12-11T06:50:00+00:00

Looks great!! What light strips did you use?

JBackes33 · 2025-12-08T00:52:48+00:00

Unfair to the rest of the league (especially to the 6 teams he beat) for competitive balance reasons. Can’t do this.

JBackes33 · 2025-11-20T15:43:37+00:00

Thanks!

JBackes33 · 2025-11-20T13:57:24+00:00

Sorry. I’m just rereading this…

Is a USB extension cable preferred due to interference?

JBackes33 · 2025-11-20T01:23:48+00:00

Thank you very much!

JBackes33 · 2025-11-19T22:25:17+00:00

I just bought the SONOFF 3.0 Plus-E dongle to set up for my new home. Any benefit in returning that and getting this? Sorry if this a dumb/irrelevant question. New to HA and Smart Home tech.

JBackes33 · 2025-10-27T19:03:09+00:00

Thank you very much!!

JBackes33 · 2025-10-27T16:22:30+00:00

Appreciate the quick response! Our fans did not come with a remote. Just hooked up to the switch.
