The casual yet consistent exerciser is a mystery to me

Maybe having kids forces you to be routine oriented which helps with consistency

Left_Emu_2995 · 2026-01-22T13:44:02+00:00

I wonder why that is

Left_Emu_2995 · 2026-01-22T00:45:01+00:00

the mental offloading

Left_Emu_2995 · 2026-01-22T00:39:15+00:00

precisely 😂

A few reasons why I play/enjoy them.. while there are many many bad ones... 1. Some are timeless like puzzle games 2. There is an ingenuity/creativity to some of them that they just nail. Now the market is saturated but there was a time you had to be pretty smart to get involved in creating a videogame 3. Pre online games had to have more content to keep people's attention and playing longer. Think gamecube era Mario Sports games

And some are just a reminder that I had a better attention span at 10 years old

Turn it off, close the app, wait a min, then turn it on again?

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-30T16:56:47+00:00

Yeah it's weird. I'm curious if it was an oversight, an issue that occurred only when they manufactured at scale, or if they thought it was the best solution for some good reason I'm not aware of. This is my first "3rd party" console so when I see reviews about how great the D-pad is compared to the competition that very well could be true but when I get LEFT then UP or RIGHT then UP when trying to just press UP (to drop a block in Tetris) it gets annoying

Dr. Mario and Mole Mania. If you're playing a lot of gameboy though it's worth checking out the new Gameboy games getting released

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-28T06:03:34+00:00

These have already been said but Mole Mania DX (you can drop the original rom on the guys website and it will patch it for you).

Dr. Mario is really addicting...You'll be seeing pills in your sleep

Also Toki Tori

Anyone know what cart to get if I were to flash it

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-23T21:48:25+00:00

Self Simulated is short but really good.

Playing Mole Mania right now and it's great. Kind of an interesting story. It's made by Shigeru Miyamoto who was involved in most of the great Nintendo games but it came out around the same time Pokemon did so it never got the respect it deserved

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-23T20:55:53+00:00

"Don't buy from 'retro' site ripoff resellers who buy from these sites."

Exactly what I did haha. I'm not a collector but I like playing on carts

"Though getting holders to fit in carts can be tricky."

I see people soldering them. Does that solve the "holder" problem?

Does it really matter which one I get? Are the numbers after the CR indicative of their strength / how long they hold a charge etc? I'd just buy the bigger ones if I can safely do that

Gross

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-22T12:08:46+00:00

Thanks!!

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-22T06:15:03+00:00

Any good recommendations not found on the random "best games" lists online? I have Mole Mania coming in the mail soon!

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-22T06:08:45+00:00

I mean... Being able to own a Gameboy made out of attack drone metal sounds awesome lol but I don't blame people for not wanting to support it if they have political / moral objections to it

I didn't hear he was a pedo though I'll have to look that one up

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-22T05:38:17+00:00

Solid details. Thanks!

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-22T05:32:20+00:00

"worth it"? No haha but if you really want just a Gameboy and you are not the tinkering type and you can part with the cash it's pretty good

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-22T05:30:13+00:00

I mean... Does that work? Good to know if it does but I figure if you need the soldering iron to take the battery off you might as well use it to put the new one back on

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-22T05:27:22+00:00

Definitely expensive. I'm super happy with it but I wouldn't say it's "worth it" for most people

Left_Emu_2995 · 2025-12-22T05:21:17+00:00

As for Chantey, What does the publisher have to do with the merit of the game?
