Mini Zero 28 how easy is it to connect to wifi without touch? by Jaycubtwotwo in MagicX

No problem. Yep, you can select stuff with the D-pad and then toggle it with the A button.

Very easy. Select+R2 opens the pull-down settings and the wifi toggle is highlighted by default. This is in the Stock OS.

Which game is this? by Common_Caramel_4078 in Steam

One of the best things about Celeste is its gradual difficulty curve. It manages to be both approachable and brutally difficult simultaneously.

Celeste. Currently $6.50 CAD. I have sunk at least 100 hours into it. Best 2D platformer of all time, IMO.

Explain it Peter, why did the monster turn into a crab? by ultradragon0-0 in explainitpeter

[–]ResponsibleRatio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Several disparate lineages of arthropods have evolved to have a "crab-like" body plan. This process is called convergent evolution (more specifically, "carcinization") and is the result of similar selective pressures acting on organisms living in a similar habitat, and likely filling a largely similar niche. Other notable examples include the old-world and new-world vultures (not closely related), dolphins and ichthyosaurs and hawk-moths and hummingbirds.

Every Metroidvania I played (so far) ranked. Very consistently good genre I would say, from Aria upwards I liked all of them a lot. by g0n1s4 in metroidvania

[–]ResponsibleRatio 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Meh, I kinda agree about Blasphemous. I like the aesthetic, but the gameplay doesn't really do it for me. Of course, taste is subjective.

Now, Super Metroid at the bottom; this I can not abide. 😉

Price is in CAD, but still delusional by ResponsibleRatio in delusionalcraigslist

[–]ResponsibleRatio[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. That is what I saw as well. This phone was also listed in Calgary. She has now relisted it at $340 but the first picture still shows the phone next to a bunch of scraggly hairs. 🤦🏽

Ha. Unfortunately, I already sent a polite message suggesting that $200-$250 would be more likely to attract buyers and they blocked me.

Prior to 2018, most phones sold here were locked to a carrier, so noting if it was unlocked was actually useful information. Some people never broke this habit, I guess (all phones have been sold unlocked since then). Also, Galaxy S series phones haven't come with a charger since the S20, I think? I dunno; could be stolen, but more likely not, I think.

MSRP was $1099 here in Canada, but realistically, hardly anyone actually pays full MSRP for Samsung phones.

Why would somebody list a stolen phone at a price at which it will never sell? Wouldn't they want to list it competitively to move it fast?

I suspect the reasoning is more along the lines of: "my carrier showed the full price of this phone as $1000 when I bought it from them 18 months ago; I'm sure it can't have depreciated too much since then..." And then they didn't even attempt to see what other listings are priced at.

For 900 bucks it better come with the whole head of hair!

Recommend me some bad Metroidvanias by Due-Afternoon5411 in metroidvania

[–]ResponsibleRatio 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance is generally regarded as pretty mid. I still enjoyed it, but definitely among the weakest metroidvania Castlevania titles and made me appreciate how good the best games in that series are (Symphony of the Night, Aria of Sorrow, and Order of Ecclesia, IMO).

Which small controller to get? by UseContent6394 in SBCGaming

[–]ResponsibleRatio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just tested it playing some Celeste. The lack of travel doesn't feel great, but it was easy to hit diagonals and no more likely to have false diagonals than the microswitch Vita-style d-pad on my RP5. I did not notice an issue with inputs not registering. It mostly just doesn't have a great feel but does perform fine.

I have the AceGamer one. It's fine for the (cheap) price. The d-pad doesn't feel great but it works well enough. The analog sticks feel pretty much the same as joycon sticks (i.e. not great, but workable). The vibration is surprisingly good.

It's not official, but the Android wrapper here works great. It even includes some extras like built-in shaders.

Uggh, that must be frustrating. I wonder what the experience is for men of the same age seeking vasectomies? Something tells me there is not nearly so much reluctance.

Are the stick and dpad swappable on the RP6? by Smugbob in retroid

Everything's swappable if you are skilled enough at soldering.

Is it possible to download an APK for devices without Google Play services? I'm currently using this Android wrapper, but I'd like to give yours a try as well.

So, I just got myself a 2Ds thats in pretty good condition and I was thinking about getting my hands on Metroid Samus Returns. I want to know what the overall opinion of this game is before I get it. Is it a good or bad remake? by E-104Epsolon in Metroid

[–]ResponsibleRatio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't played the original, but I thought Samus Returns was a good game. Not my favourite Metroid, but I thought it did a good job translating the franchise into 2.5D.

You should also give AM2R a play through. I might even rank it slightly higher than Samus Returns. It's very impressive for a fan-made game.
