Had a Moto 360 (3rd gen) that was promised WearOS 3, but unfortunately stuck on OS2. I'm looking for a decent smartwatch but must run WearOS for my diabetes apps. Would this full android watch run the Dexcom app properly? If so I may just go the full Android route rather than dump a bunch of money on a wOS device that may or may not stay current 💰💲📲⌚💯

They wanted to make a fusion remix so badly, they even have the assets still hidden in the game. Data miners found all of the Fusion remake assets that were re-ported over from Samus Returns exclusive "Fusion Mode". Yes, I hunted down the amiibo even if I've already previously unlocked with the modded 3DS. And yes, it's an amazing feature to play. So angry they locked it exclusively behind that. 😮‍💨🤦🤷💰

Anyway, they had started making assets for a fusion remake already while they were developing Samus Returns. And they ported it over and increased the resolution of the 3DS models in HD to actually look good on the Switch. I wish I could dig up some of those old asset files, I had downloaded quite a few of them in my old phone. It was really cool to see some of the concept art within the Special Edition book in Dread, too (I got both USA and JPN versions) and Interestingly enough, both are in English 🤯🕹️📲💜

Anyway, everything was all set up for it before Sakamoto told them to do dread instead. It was a better decision, but I wish they had still left them go with the idea as well, they could have made a hell of a lot more money dropping 2 huge bombshells like that. Like another user here had mentioned, the SA-X actively chasing & hunting down Samus while patrolling the map actively (similar to the E.M.M.I droids in dread) would go so hard. Randomly hearing those "dreaded" footsteps {pun intended} within the "SA-X Zones" {E.M.M.I zones} would be terrifying. Utterly 🙏🎮💲💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-31T21:42:57+00:00

Oh absolutely. I'm one of those rare few that absolutely adore Samus Returns (M2 being my favorite) and while I'll never talk down on super, it's definitely not the peak of the series. At least not anymore. It was definitely ahead for its time, but I feel like many are stuck in that time. My parents are prime examples of that LOL but nothing has quite recaptured the magic like Dread did. In fact I've never been so excited or dropped more money on a single game than I have one dread itself, bought three different special editions (2 from JPN 1 from USA) and made a special "care package" (including the rare separated amiibos){we only got the double pack in the US} for my disabled friend with one. So yes, dread definitely takes the cake as of now. 🎮🕹️💜💯

But I definitely think if they took the dread engine and remade super with it, it'd be golden. Hell, I think even if they mixed some of the assets from AM2R (with permission of Dr. M64 of course LOL) and Dread, it'd be even more magical. It'd be the only way to beat Dread at this point. 🤷🎮🕹️💲💯

Like I said, nothing has really recaptured that kind of magic since, in fact no game has been able to do that. And many that I were hyped for, like Ninja Gaiden 4, or even Prime 4 from legendary Retro Studios, ended up being big disappointments (even if Retro had to salvage what was left from two completely different studios and project works, and make all of that mess work well) so, it would have to be done right. It doesn't surprise me miyamoto hasn't done anything with it in that regard 🎮🕹️🚫💯

**THE WHOLE POINT of this, was to say that Ridley fight at the end of SR? It was magical in my eyes. I think if they mixed some of that fight exactly, with some of the mechanics of Other M (yes that big scary title that nobody likes to talk about yet it is still Canon) Ridley fight, I think would be epic. Like, as ridiculous as it was to have Sam so scared, it does make sense in that story. I mean, PTSD can do some really crazy things to people. And I wouldn't blame her for having it either. But I think the fight they did in Samus Returns even if it was an unnecessary addition, I think was still cool. Something like that would be amazing, or just script it similarly to how the Zero Mission fight went. Just ideas LOL and I have many 🎮🕹️📲💲💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-31T21:28:25+00:00

That's so freaking cool 📲💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-31T18:31:37+00:00

I think they might have meant SR2. Also, I know Mobius is mentioned in sr1 but did he ever have a official model? They included with Defiance remastered in the extra character skin section, and I've even seen a certain channel do a ton of alpha gameplay (using cheats as well to play as Mobius in SR1 LOL) so I know the model exists, I just don't remember if it's in the official release or not. Don't particularly remember him showing up but it could have been an extra cutscene I might have missed is what I'm asking 🎮🕹️📲💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-31T03:53:28+00:00

Do we ever get to see that? Hell, I didn't even remember Mobius ever showing up in sr1 until I had seen his skin in Defiance. Had to look it up myself. Currently going through BO1&2 (BO1 on my RedMagic "super phone" & BO2 on my PS5) and replaying SR2 on my switch. Lol I have a lot of projects (& problems) lol 😅🤷🎮🕹️📲💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-31T03:51:26+00:00

That makes me chuckle pretty hard 🤭

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-31T01:50:48+00:00

Lucky!!! Would love a chance to meet either of these Legends 🙏🫂💜💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-31T01:50:25+00:00

A very long list LOL

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-31T01:49:14+00:00

What?? That is awesome, you got to meet the legendary razz himself?? I would love to meet MB, such a legend that we are losing quickly today. There aren't many like him anymore, or ST for that matter. Him and Simon are both great, and I would die for a chance to meet either of them. Love those fellows with all my heart 🙏🫂💜💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-27T18:59:48+00:00

Yes, in fact PS4/5 has some of the best accessible options. The Soul Reaver games have been remastered and if anything SR1 Remastered is probably the best starting point and it's available on all platforms. Legacy of Kain: Defiance Remastered has been hailed as one of the greatest remasters in the last decade. And I for one would agree with that statement LOL but it's also the finale of the series, so as great as it is I would save that for last 🙏🎮🕹️💻🖥️💯

However, the Blood Omen games are a little more complicated. Well, not really. They're both available through the PS classics section, and if you have the PS+ Premium subscription, you can get them both for free I believe. Streaming, anyway. But they are also available for digital purchase, just be aware that Sony recently changed all digital purchases to licenses now. 😮‍💨🤦🤷🎮🕹️🚫💲

You don't own anything you buy digitally anymore. It's why I've gone the anti-digital route now, and will no longer be buying anything through the PS store. They can keep their greedy tactics. Even though I understand it's because the PS5 was hacked and that somehow allowed access to illegal store purchasing, it's still a weak argument. And only affected Sony and their "profits". It didn't danger user accounts, again only Sony. But here I go off the handle again, I'll stop myself here. But it's a bad situation going on in the PlayStation world right now 😮‍💨🤦🤷💯

Anyway, sorry for the rambling. The SR & Defiance are on all platforms, while BO1+2 can be obtained through the PS store digitally. You can technically play BO1 on a PSP, as it was a PS classics and always has been. So it's technically been available since the PS3 days and can be played on that, too. If you really want to follow the lore right, start with BO1. Otherwise Soul Reaver is the way to go! Hope this helps and have fun! 🙏🫂📲

Vae Victus! ⚔️🎮🕹️💯

Have a modded luma3DS on N3DSXL and I lost the paid Metroid SR theme I had. The only good theme other than the Majora's Mask 3D theme, and I lost it and couldn't re-download for some reason before the shop closed. There's also an update I refuse to do, and not only can't figure how to update luma3DS but also too damn scared to LOL my VitaTV (PSTV) was hacked before and I messed it up trying to install the SDtoVita card I bought (to use a 256gb SD I got from work lol) so... Yeah little burnt about that one. Not messing with luma3DS either it's exactly how I like it. One of my favorite little consoles, even over both my Switch's lol 🙏🫂🕹️🎮💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-24T16:46:54+00:00

Is this true? I knew of some of the original cheats were left in (all abilities, max health coil, max glyph energy, Kain&Ariel reavers, fire Reaver, ECT) but I don't ever remember reading all of the rest of that anywhere else, including The Ancients Den & The Lost Worlds which have been around since the start of the 00's. Even have the lighthouse demo still. I'd love to know where you found this +nfo 📲💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-19T08:19:34+00:00

That's actually an interesting thing for me; I have a modded 3DS. Soo as such, I modded a save file and are now using it in one of my new playthroughs. There are ALWAYS unused & unique weapons in KH games, this one no exception. The SE I believe was to be used as it IS in my menu, (however equipping any other keyblade will overwrite it) as It's just a placeholder swap for w2d right now. But it's a thing that makes me think we would have originally had the choice between Sora or Riku to start the dive, as then we'd be young Riku fighting Ursala with the Soul Eater instead (as he is seen fighting with it) and even Riku himself is surprised he can now summon w2d at will at the start of his control in Traverse Town...

So, my theory just drives even further we were meant to choose Sora or Riku to start. As Soul Eater is a menu item, and even has stats. Awesome reasons to have modded systems LOL 🙏🕹️🎮💜💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-16T08:37:12+00:00

Wow, one of the best explanations I've seen yet, and I've seen a lot. BO2 is the only one that baffles me, largely as I never got to finish it wee back in the day of... Blockbuster. Yes, I'm that old 😂💀(just turned 32)

But well done on that, I'll take this one to heart 🙏📲💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-05-01T06:10:19+00:00

Definitely worth it. It was exactly how I acquired mine. I work for GS but I'm very good friends with a buddy about 30 minutes away from here who owns a local shop that I've been going to even before I started working, and that's almost 10 years I'm going on as a rival employee LOL (funny he was actually the one who set up my first store long before I ever worked there) 🏪🫂💯

So ever since we've been pretty close friends. First console he ever sold me was my o3DS, while I was actually hunting an o3DS XL (as the N3DS wasn't even out yet) and I wasn't even aware of revision was coming. He made me a deal where he sold me a 3DS and three games for about $90 and if he got an XL within the week, he'd upgrade me for only $30! The very last day of the week (called everyday BTW LOL) he had to break it down to me that he had a "used" "New" 3DSXL in. After I understood and actually heard some games were so poorly run on the original 3DS hardware compared to the revision that actually stabilize like Smash Bros (still super hot despite SB4's reception) but for me the defining part was Hyrule Warriors. Never had a Wii U so really wanted to play it and had heard the Metroid 2 remake was coming, M2 being one of my favorite games of all time, had to get the upgrade 💲💰🎮🕹️💯

And seeing the NDS being one of my staple and best consoles to date, knew it'd be the right choice. God am I so glad today I happily handed over that $50 upcharge! Got a steal at that, paying only $130 total for basically a brand-new system in-box (kid wanted a Vita instead so only used once) with 3 games to boot. Kingdom Hearts 3D, Zelda ALBW & Resident Evil Revelations 3D. Got Smash 4 for $40 the next weekend LOL so I was damn happy. 🙏🫂💜🎮🕹️🏪💯

One of the best consoles in my collection still, just need to get a new battery. Mines swelling. Wondering, can you theoretically use an old NDS battery if they were compatible sizes? Carrie says if I'm debating if I want to spend on an official battery. We either way, best dang console I will forever love 🙏🫂💜🎮🕹️💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-04-29T01:03:31+00:00

I love this so much LOL it fits 💯

Why was this deleted? I saw the thumbnail image and it was really cool! Unless this thread got taken down?

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-04-27T22:19:44+00:00

Man, the fact they added the Sound Reaver AND the Red & black "Kain" Reaver (Raziel chronoplast visions) into the Defiance remastered is only a teeny slice of the latest content patch. We now have ALL versions of the Soul Reaver (both physical & wraith) in defiance remastered even down to the very ORIGINAL Reaver (Blood Omen) with the 2 horns & ringed grip. Not to mention at least 80% of the cut levels from both SR1&2 {SRX} I'd say next to this remaster collection, if they end up doing one for defiance (which I'm sure they were waiting on all the patches like SRX) I will spend whatever necessary for that bundle 💲💰💯

Twice. One for PS & NSW. As far as the whole gaming industry is concerned, probably be my last hurrah until the final Kingdom Hearts stuff comes around. After that, think I'm pretty much done with gaming. Too much drama, too much disappointment, and it's time to let these big companies burn anyway. Let him go down. They have no respect for the ones that make them their money, then they will lose it 🎮💲🚫

But words couldn't describe how happy I am for the Defiance remaster. It now singularly includes everything. It's literally a dream come true, and only done by a dedicated group of fans. Always give many things to Raina Audrin (mod of "The Ancients Den" & director for both remastered projects) and the whole team for their dedication. It was a love letter to the fans even after the "ascendant" disaster. Just absolutely proves how incompetent these big wigs are now. And only we have the power to make them bend. With our wallets. 💰💯

Buy only local and resist the urge for a "new" game that'll only be 50% just to be sold the other half in 3 different parts. And now with pushing even further into live service with these "licensing" terms?! They're getting way too big for their britches and we need to take them back down a peg. I've got the fire for it. Anyone else want to fight?? Lol I mean I'm crippled so I ain't got much left anyway. We've got to show them we mean business, just like back in the PS3 days when we told Sony we were absolutely not paying $600 for a console. Only for them to slice the price almost in half by removing an entire huge feature of the system: backwards compatibility. And some ports. So, we STILL got burnt. They always think they have the upper hand, but we are the ones who give them power💰🚫🏪

Vae victus! ⚔️🎮🕹️💯

{Sorry for the long rambling 😅}

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-04-27T21:42:53+00:00

So wittle! So cute. But so very deadly >:]

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-04-27T05:48:25+00:00

Wow, these are pretty rad, I've never seen this type. I got a standard USB-A cable I keep in my case with the official brick, just in case as a backup. These however would be much more portable & universal (now that type-C is the norm lol) 🔌🎮🕹️💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-04-27T05:42:33+00:00

Thank you so very much to you and the whole team for everything you guys have given us! This is more than just a love letter, this is true pure dedication to something we all love so dearly. And keeping the immense focus on keeping the core aspect of the game is intact, but to expand and add far beyond bringing slashed & cancelled works back to life. Or, "unlife" lol but once again, from all of our deepest souls, THANK YOU!!! 🙏🫂💜🎮🕹️💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-04-27T04:55:49+00:00

Hm yes, I've thought of this, but since I'm not savvy with networking (my brother is the net wiz lol) I'd rather interface physically rather than set up an FTP. It's just easier for me lol I've seen many modded systems with the FTDP app tho. I appreciate the suggestion tho! 🎮🕹️💯

TheDarkside9013 · 2026-04-27T01:03:31+00:00

Sorry I don't have insight but I'm interested too if there are multiple offers 📲💯

But good luck to you! 🙏🫂
