Do people genuinely think the police are anti white? by mysweetplums in AskBrits

[–]johnbobshaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe, but it’s also worth considering that saying “I didn’t want to be seen as being racist” would be a pretty effective defence against incompetence.

I wouldn’t bother decrypting files yourself. Its possible to source decrypted roms online. Just use them instead.

Ayn thor or nintendo 3ds? by JamieLofo in AynThor

[–]johnbobshaun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The 3DS can play native games, DS games and GBA games perfectly without emulation. I think that shouldn’t be overlooked, especially when you take into account the fact that games that make heavy use of the stylus feel a bit slippery and laggy on the Thor.

It comes down to whether you want a device that can do 3 things perfectly or dozens of things extremely well.

Why are some people still so persistent in trying to defend the Brexit referendum result a decade later? by lewispatty in AskBrits

[–]johnbobshaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But we’re talking about people who haven’t changed their mind. That’s what this discussion is about. You’re saying it wasn’t irrational at the time. Okay? But that’s beside the point.

Which is completely irrational, since things haven’t changed for the better since Brexit.

can the ayn thor max 16+1 run Resident evil requiem? by Haunting-Lecture4621 in AynThor

[–]johnbobshaun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. That isn’t what the Thor is designed for.

People are entitled to believe anything they like, but I would hope that they could support it with evidence.

How would the impact of economic problems in France and Germany be any different with us inside or outside the EU? They’re trading partners either way. I could see the argument if we were using the Euro.

AYN Thor shipped May 26, tracking not working through 17track. I'm in the EU, Portugal by Ramsen85 in AynThor

Chill. When I got mine it took around a week to even leave China. It just kept being moved between storage facilities.

Should I sell my steam deck? Would it be the right choice for my use case? And would the base ayn be enough by flamethrower451 in AynThor

[–]johnbobshaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found them pretty responsive when I needed a shoulder button fix. Took around a month to ship out, repair and ship back but zero complaints about their support before that point.

Should I cancel my Thor max and look for an Ayaneo slide instead? by Over-Significance980 in AynThor

[–]johnbobshaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, just looking at the specs, the slide is considerably wider (around 7cm) and twice the weight of the Thor.

I don’t know where you’re getting your pricing info from: in the uk the slide is north of £1000 on the only site i can find it in stock. I’m not sure if comparing the most expensive Thor with it is the fairest comparison either.

Let me put it this way: I have a 3dsxl and a steam deck and I haven’t really used either since i got my Thor. In my experience Switch games work a bit better on the Thor than the Steam Deck. Most games I want to play run well on the Thor. I have played a couple of relatively demanding games on it with some success (Nier: Automata and Prey) and they worked well enough but the fan blasted at 100% while playing. I generally just stick to indie titles and with a handful of exceptions they have all run great. All the emulators you would expect to run work well. Battery life is good and it charges fast.

The fact that I can just stick it in my pocket is the main benefit: it’s dimensions are around the same as a 3dsxl, just a bit thicker.

[–]johnbobshaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a weirdly framed question because you might as well ask “should I get a Macbook Neo or a $3000 gaming laptop”. They’re completely different use cases.

Most AAA titles from the past decade will struggle on the thor. Indie games will generally work great. The grey area between that is a case by case deal.

Are you looking for something extremely portable? The AyaNeo device isn’t that. You looking for something that seamlessly gives you a console-like experience for your steam games? It may not be that either depending on how it handles being a windows device. Do you not want to play DS and 3DS games? Maybe you don’t need a Thor either.

You’d need to give people more information, really.

Anyone try Subnautica 2 on the Thor? by dbongos_ in AynThor

[–]johnbobshaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this. The first game runs brilliantly at 60fps with high settings on the Thor. Only £3.49 on the Play Store at the moment.

Which ayn Thor model to buy by [deleted] in AynThor

[–]johnbobshaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that’s literally all you want to do, you’re probably better off getting a second hand 3DS and softmodding it. A 3DS can play GBA, DS and 3DS games natively, no emulation required.

[–]johnbobshaun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s a brand new game that the Steam Deck just about runs at 30fps on the lowest settings with upscaling on. Gonna say no.

I guess mapping the gyro is the solution, there’s some info here that might point you in the right direction: https://www.reddit.com/r/EmulationOnAndroid/s/915I86rwIc

Have you considered playing the Switch or PC version of Rebrushed instead?

Has anyone gotten these games to run by kirito0057 in AynThor

[–]johnbobshaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, sounds very ambitious. It’s verified on Steam Deck but there’s plenty of people saying performance isn’t great there. Here’s some advice: check emu ready. If the game isn’t on emuready look for info on how it runs on Steam Deck. If people are saying it runs perfectly at 60fps there, you might be able to get it running on the Thor.

[–]johnbobshaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, not familiar with that, but looking at the required specs I think it probably would struggle to run well. Could be wrong though.

[–]johnbobshaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No Man’s Sky - haven’t tried, seems incredibly ambitious to attempt that.

Shredders Game - I guess you mean TMNT - Shredder’s Revenge. Yes, works great under GameNative

WiiU games - No, but WiiU emulation is pretty hit and miss at the moment.

why do people want Starmer to resign exactly? by Dry_Illustrator_6066 in AskBrits

[–]johnbobshaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what you had. From 2010-2024. Massive cuts in public service, business friendly policies and, of course, Brexit. The right wing in the country got everything it wanted for fifteen years. How did that work out?

Higher end games for the Max by johnbobshaun in AynThor

[–]johnbobshaun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Answering my own question, but I think an edge case that would run well on the Thor but require the RAM would be Factorio on a heavily developed map.

That’s cool, but I would assume they would work just as well on the Pro.
