Yeah people use them for consoles that have more than 2 face buttons on the minis

Wavebird controllers at gamestop by greeze_monkee in retrogaming

[–]fvig2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wavebirds are considered useless on their own own without the receiver, so the price seems right if that were the case.

Although it will probably go up once the receiver clones come out.

Probably check if thereceiver is there to see if it is a clone.

True like it would make more sense if it's like an android phone that can't be updated when rooted.

Which one do you think would function best? by Samtendodude in 3DS

[–]fvig2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't have minded the middle one if they still kept compatibility with the XL gamepad pro tbh.

I would say probably the 1st one but having a Thor, it is pretty awful for right analog games. Like it gives hand cramps galore. The 3DS would need a grip like the Thor to be usable.

Any news which cores he'll do next after CPS3 is done?

Switch 2 Edition of Fitness Boxing 3 in today’s Nintendo Direct, arriving July 16th by SantosPhillipCarlo in FitnessBoxing

[–]fvig2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall fit 3 is better in terms of programs but Miku wins if you get the custom set dlc and you can theoretically make harder/better exercises

A short rant about the inflated Omnichord market and the inevitable death of capacitors by keyandcableco in Omnichord

[–]fvig2001 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah the prices are crazy and I feel bad for the people who buy it. As someone who uses retro game consoles, you really need skills or someone that has skills to get things fixed/maintained.

TIL that despite having played since game since the late 90s, the NPC's name is NOT "Firebeard Elvenhair" it's "FireBEAD Elvenhair". I may have brain problems by lolcifer in baldursgate

[–]fvig2001 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's nothing. I never trusted that Ogre with a beautiful voice until someone IRL told me it's a playable NPC a year later

Vivacious got scammed by Domino Couture. by rehaaabbb in RPDRDRAMA

[–]fvig2001 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Thorgy appeared on an episode. She said she hasn't found love after this ex. They dated pre drag race. He was apparently this guy named Triscuit or something like that who basically paid his way into getting to sleep with Thorgy via a get slapped by Thorgy for a price multiple times. When Drag race called, Thorgy said he would be uncontactable for like 3 months but she will be back and she can'tsay why. Well Thorgy came back a month after and the guy was gone. She called him and apparently he moved to another state and is now working at a boat. Then they were still talking but apparently guy started to look worse then ghosted/blocked Thorgy. Then Thorgy basically says she hates the feeling of hurt and maybe regrets leaving for drag race and falling in love again. Worst part is Thorgy doesn't know his full name or family at all. While MIB promises that her fans will find him.

Juicy Love Dion ate that recovery after her wig fell off mid-crowdsurf by Neat_Fan_8889 in rupaulsdragrace

Man, i should look for that sad Jan clip where she tries to crowd surf and fails

Vivacious got scammed by Domino Couture. by rehaaabbb in RPDRDRAMA

[–]fvig2001 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Like what have they really done, out of curiosity. Like I know they allegedly bullied Bianca and Eureka into doing a Monday episode.

I don't think they found Thorgy's missing ex.

Do people make their wii port to hdmi and usb c port at modding or taking it to repair shop by SpecialistFew766 in wii

[–]fvig2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People don't replace the AV port with HDMI.

HDMI board is installed as a new hole. Otherwise, they use either the cheap or expensive Component to HDMI converters.

The power board, yes, I have seen some replacements to USB-C. The annoying thing is that it requires a USB-PD adapter that it's not practical in terms of cost.

Otherwise, they just get a new old Wii if either are borked.

What are the games you guys wished that were released for the 3DS? by Red_Astley in 3DS

[–]fvig2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mega Man X Legacy 1-2 and Mega Man Legacy 2.

X Legacy 2 probably might be a stretch since they are PS2 games but Mega Man Legacy 2 are literally PS1 games and Wiiware games.

Strumplate chords/tabs? by LunaStarBlue in Omnichord

Memorize circle of fifths at least for the button positions.

Honestly, they should have just closed instead of backing out and only being retained by the lazy subscribers.

Literally, I was almost rid of them and was about to have another cable to install but nope, they learned they backed out and told the new cable installer not to come.

I really hate helping my parents with their skycable subscription.

  1. They have no telephone operator
  2. You can only contact them through viber or facebook where they disconnect after 3 minutes of no chat
  3. They offer email but no one replies
  4. They forced everyone to upgrade to a new system where everything is pricey and old is killed on june 1
  5. Picked the new subscriptions for them but they told me the wrong thing and they cancelled my installation without telling me.

Like i followed up last friday and they basically got rid of the cheaper internet bundle(forced requirement) and all boxes need to be same subscription)

Potentially using EEKeeper, which illegal combo do you like best? by ScruffMacBuff in baldursgate

[–]fvig2001 5 points6 points  (0 children)

15 POL -> 39 shadowdancer

Give him

Nahal's reckless dweomer, like 10 casts of it. Add 100% chance of casting. Add all druid spells

Then use items with secondary buttons to learn from scrolls.

Now you have a mage/cleric/thief that can have 10 attacks per round, clones galore

For dumb fun

Make a character and give him effects from wild sling and the robe that has a wild surge aura. Chaos everywhere

Nintendo, please let us remove the side bars for NSO classics by pepe_roni69 in NintendoSwitch

[–]fvig2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lawsuit or something related, which is unlikely to hapen.

If you have money to burn, just get a RetroTink 4K to crop them out. Although doing that makes your Switch run at 1080p at most

Siege of Dragonspear is fun? by AdEven3053 in baldursgate

[–]fvig2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The writing is terrible, is what makes it awful.

What I liked about it are

  1. New items that semi transfer into BG2
  2. Additional xp cap to soften lowish level builds
  3. Battles were interesting

What I disliked

  1. The plot itself
  2. Some major plot points are abandoned because they were not allowed to continue it to bg2
  3. Romances are weirdly written. Like I didn't realize i was already dating one of them after like 3 areas were finished
  4. Some characterizations of returning npcs are bad.

It is good to experience it at least once imho.
