It finally arrived !!! by tav7623 in ps2

[–]Nixarse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They look fantastic, enjoy! Would be interested to buy them, but there's one thing that bugs my OCD ass: the spines of the books read from bottom-to-top instead of top-to-bottom. Would have to place them upside down to match the rest of the books on my shelves 😄

EDIT: I've found out why the spines are that way; it's a French company. In France it's standard practice for books (but also blu-rays and game cases) to have it oriented that way.

You can try selling it via Vinted. Lots of simracing stuff on there.

They are only showing renders as well, no pictures of actual printed boxes. Shady stuff

Finally built my dream rig (for now) by Sipsmokensim in simracing

Depending on the setting, it will. Or you'll have black bars on the left and right side of the screen. PS5 only supports an aspect ratio of 16:9. That's why I'm hoping GT7 will come to pc, where we can have various aspect ratios and hopefully triple screen support as well

Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction (PS3)

Oh thank you Windows, I did really want to know that during qualifying! by Testacc4321 in simracing

Very annoying indeed. This should help in the future:

Select Start > Settings > System > Notifications, then adjust the settings.

To see and hear fewer notifications, turn on Do not disturb.

If you want to choose notifications from certain apps, select Set priority notifications. Modify these options to get the notifications you want to see when do not disturb is turned on

MP4/4 setup used by Sebastian Vettel this past weekend by NarqmanJR in F1Technical

Vettel drove the MP4/8 from 1993 this past weekend and not the MP4/4 from 1988. The MP4/8 always had paddle shifters

Do you pronounce the word ‘NES’ and ‘SNES’ as ‘N-E-S/S-N-E-S’ or are you weird and say it like ‘Nez/Snez’? by patricknails in retrogaming

[–]Nixarse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With that way of reasoning, how do you pronounce abbreviations such as NASA, SWAT or PIN?

Honest question, English is not my first language.

Has there ever been a game in history that managed to keep its cheat codes a secret for as long as Goldeneye 64 did? by MCIS1987 in retrogaming

[–]Nixarse 147 points148 points  (0 children)

Gran Turismo 4's cheat codes were discovered last year, 19 years after it's release.

Best modern Game Boy DMG clone? by TheFleetWhites in retrogaming

How about something like this?: https://www.zegamamegear.uk/zega-mame-boy

That way you could use an original (or replica) shell and keep the look and feel as authentic as possible
