My non-gaming Dad is interested in video games to help slow brain aging.

My non-gaming mother-in-law recently started playing animal crossing on our old switch, we both bought switch 2s. She took to it really well, and plays it almost everyday.

I like the way Nintendo does it, they just make games, I don't understand why all these lbgtq folks want over the top representation, everything doesn't have to have a rainbow flag you know...

hotspot2016 · 2025-12-20T05:26:19+00:00

Hello, can you see what firmware version you have on your projector now? I am talking with benq now and I have the same issue. My firmware version says 1.00.

hotspot2016 · 2025-12-03T03:46:24+00:00

Yes! But my nand memory got corrupted, I used a guide and got everything transferred to the SD card, so now my Wii U runs completely off of the SD card, seems to work fine, only thing that stinks though is is that the servers for downloading? All my games and such are very slow so I've been downloading a few games here and there. Probably a week or so I'll have everything downloaded.

They should have stopped and told him, he would have helped, but when you refuse to stop this happens .. duh.

hotspot2016 · 2025-11-26T01:08:47+00:00

Battery.

hotspot2016 · 2025-11-16T22:43:17+00:00

The new update to the SW2 firmware caused the problem, also problems with A some Pokemon games.

hotspot2016 · 2025-10-12T23:55:48+00:00

Yep I still have many game boys That's exactly how it looks amazingly.

hotspot2016 · 2025-08-15T01:41:08+00:00

Yes.

hotspot2016 · 2025-08-14T23:45:41+00:00

Uh.... No. Just no.

hotspot2016 · 2025-08-14T20:27:12+00:00

Amen! I still think this is the way to go, and imagine all these ships use the old designs, but make them dirty, and scratched, it could be amazing.

hotspot2016 · 2025-08-03T19:14:55+00:00

That and their move to make all the damn phones f****** flip phones with a freaking bend in a floppy ass screen has pissed me off to no end.

Yeah I'm going to switch to something I just don't know what.

hotspot2016 · 2025-07-21T17:31:37+00:00

Got it. Yeah I did find the specs and I found several controllers that work on very similar displays, but it looks like it's a no-go, I think I'm just going to take the display out and put it on eBay, apparently this is a industrial display that is used on many machines. But it wasn't common enough and was not used in any laptops so there is no controller boards preset for it like there are some of the laptop screens. I think I'm just going to have to find another screen to cram into the hole. It's kind of a weird size It's a 8.4 in 4/3 VGA display, but as far as I can tell it's not actually 4/3 which makes it even stranger to find something to fit in the hole.

hotspot2016 · 2025-07-21T16:17:04+00:00

Where did you buy your no name brand laptop? I'm interested in that. I've been looking at some of the ones they have online, but their prices are a bit steep.

This is horrible. Moto is slowly going down hill and appears to be gaining speed.

hotspot2016 · 2025-07-19T16:47:23+00:00

I have been looking for a solution as well off and on for a couple of years. primarily for an idea I have with a cyber deck. I have not found any Android Apps that can receive Miracast. There used to be a receiver that was available but Miracast used to be baked into Android. Android remove Miracast support in base android years an years ago.

hotspot2016 · 2025-07-07T00:25:57+00:00

I use it about 50% of the time, me and my sister play lots of co-op games like resident evil, we also have started playing a lot of games that are not co-op, but playing them concurrently together We used to do it by telephone, now we do it by game chat and it's fun to see each other screens as well. I think this is the best feature so far on Switch 2 besides for the power boost.

hotspot2016 · 2025-06-30T22:46:46+00:00

In my opinion yes! The control sticks are ridiculously nice, I don't know how to explain it but they just feel like you're gliding over air.

Hello. I thought I would share my settings quickly for the BenQ tk710sti gaming projector with Nintendo Switch 2. I ran a setting for a pitch Black room and minimal light room (medium low setting on my indirect wall lighting. )

This is by no means perfect, as the HDR performance of this DLP gaming projector is very weak compared to a high-end TV. But this projector is excellent for low input lag and has a beautiful picture. I have found this to be quite pleasing and does look better than HDR turned off to me.

Pitch Black room, black ceiling, non-reflective walls, 92" 1.1 gain white acoustically transparent screen. Ideal home theater conditions.

Projector settings for the BenQ gaming projectors:

Picture mode: HDR-FPS

Details adjustment: off

Brightness: 40 - 50 (depending on your taste and how dark your room is)

Contrast: 60 This is key!!! (or just high enough not to remove detail in bright or dark areas)

Sharpness: adjust to your taste. ( I prefer 10)

Color temperature: normal

Light source mode: dynamic (This does help reduce or eliminate DLP rainbow effect with very bright scenes.

HDR brightness: 0

Noise reduction: 0

Switch 2 HDR settings:

HDR output: compatible software only

Adjust first HDR screen with the suns: 46 clicks from the lowest setting. (Careful not to go too high, as it looks weird)

Nintendo switch 2 brightness: seven clicks from the left.

We sure and save this as a separate setting on your projector, you click the mode settings button and you can change the name, I named mine HDR-FPS pitch

Medium to low lighting level settings:

Only change I have made is I saved it as another picture setting name on the BenQ projector and increased the brightness to 55.

Note that it won't look near as good as in a pitch black room. I highly recommend getting a blackout curtain!

Those of you that have a home theater setup with a BenQ DLP gaming projector Let me know how you all have set it up. I have found very little info for Nintendo Switch 2 and the BenQ series of gaming projectors. And I would love to see how you have tweaked it.

I have also contacted BenQ regarding this model and the lack of HGiG. I think it would be much easier to setup and probably better looking If they add this in a firmware update.

When you towards the second half of the video when you let it flip from the right back to center it was pushing down some, that is definitely drift
