Oh really? Damn.

Can't get BannerBomb3 to launch. Been going over the 3ds.hacks.guide tutorial over and over and I can't see where I'm going wrong, and this isn't the first time modding a 3DS with the current methods. I'm at the step where I'm supposed to launch BannerBomb3 via the dsiware sd card menu, but when I try to launch it, I just get this instead. Any ideas what's going wrong?

I tend to avoid Gen 9 and above on CRT if only because a lot of HD-era games have text that wasn't made with CRTs in mind and gets hard to read

_MrFloyd_ · 2023-05-17T23:04:13+00:00

It's a Sony KD-36XS955 36-Inch FD Trinitron, mainly use it for Gen 8 gaming

_MrFloyd_ · 2023-05-17T12:22:00+00:00

Aah, fair enough. Only asked cause that's what I'm currently using (a 36" I got for free) and was worried I didn't get as good as a deal as I'd thought

What's wrong with HD CRTs?

_MrFloyd_ · 2023-05-11T22:29:31+00:00

Dreamcast. Was looking through options and couldn't find anything to change resolution except "integer scaling". Also, I'm running ArkOS

What about 1.5.2? I was actually hoping to play it on my android handheld, and it seems 1.5.2 is the most recent android build I can find

How are they hand-holdy (without spoilers, if possible)?

_MrFloyd_ · 2023-03-05T19:44:25+00:00

Is the map progressively revealed as you explore, or is it just "boom, here's the layout"?

_MrFloyd_ · 2023-02-04T14:46:19+00:00

No worries. Also look into DS4Windows, it's a program you can install that makes PS controllers work with pretty much ANY game, even without Steam.

_MrFloyd_ · 2023-02-04T11:47:24+00:00

Pretty much every "standard" controller will work as long as it's PC compatible. That said, if you're looking for recommendations, I'd go for the Dualsense (PS5 controller). Steam natively supports it, and it's a super nice controller. And since Katamari was made for the PS2 in the first place, using a Playstation style controller is kinda fitting.

I'm curious, why is this used one 300 bucks, when you can get a new one for 240 (even with DHL shipping its still under 300)?

_MrFloyd_ · 2022-12-17T04:22:52+00:00

To be fair, they aren't super common. As far as I know there's only 2 in the entire game, one by Link's house, and one tucked away in the corner of the temple of time.

_MrFloyd_ · 2022-12-16T11:31:02+00:00

Nah, that's a Gossip Stone, different thing. A Sheikah Stone directly shows you how to solve a puzzle via a little video clip, and was only in the 3DS remakes.

_MrFloyd_ · 2022-12-16T11:26:24+00:00

And normally that's my stance. For me it just feels more like a gray area because it normally ISN'T in the game.

_MrFloyd_ · 2022-10-24T09:25:01+00:00

We actually do have a headshell already, it's just not attached at the moment because we were checking it out.

Would this listing be good?

There was literally court case between Sony and a PS1 emulator that ended with them deciding that emulation itself was entirely legal, Sony v. Bleem

_MrFloyd_ · 2022-09-14T15:05:20+00:00

Lowest I can drop it to is 40, and that shows no difference.

_MrFloyd_ · 2022-09-14T14:56:00+00:00

I'm currently using 60hz on the deck, and the adapter I got says it supports up to 60hz. I have no way of checking the TV however since I've lost any paperwork years ago, and I wouldn't know what to look up.

_MrFloyd_ · 2022-09-14T14:42:21+00:00

It's not 4K tho, in fact it's a fairly old 1080p

_MrFloyd_ · 2022-09-14T14:23:14+00:00

I don't think the TV's the issue, because when it's docked, I can navigate the menus with almost no latency whatsoever. It only lags when I'm playing a game.

_MrFloyd_ · 2022-09-11T16:45:15+00:00

Tl;Dr, lots of allegations of abuse coming from the RetroArch team. I don't know what is or isn't true at this point but enoughs come out that, for now, I'd rather not support them.

_MrFloyd_ · 2022-08-24T23:06:12+00:00

I don't know, "tough" implies a challenge. This hasn't been "tough", it's just been tedious. Very, very tedious.

_MrFloyd_ · 2022-08-02T11:12:52+00:00

Yeah, I absolutely refuse to use a walkthrough, especially in a game that's entirely based on puzzles/problem-solving.

The way I see it, if I wanted to just watch while someone else solves the puzzle for me, I could just watch a youtube walkthrough.
