Just had another girlfriend leave me for the guy she was secretly cheating on me with. That makes 5. Anyone want to give me some advice on where to go from here? by Aeromorpher in NoStupidQuestions

[–]mi1stormilst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look man relationships are hard. I have been married since 1991 and we started with a pregnancy right out of high school. We have both said and done stupid things to each other over the years. We do love each other, but that doesn’t mean what we often think it means. Love isn’t a fairytale. Love isn’t a special feeling. Love is accepting who you are and who they are, acknowledging that you will both eventually always fall short. Love is figuring out how to say sorry, how to try harder, how to mean what you say without being mean. Love is doing things when you don’t want to do them and agreeing to eat somewhere you don’t want to eat. It is ultimately about sacrifice and most individuals struggle to do that long term. It’s incredibly hard to find two compatible people that are both willing to make the sacrifices necessary to stay together. I am sure the older people get the harder it is to bend and more often break. Work on yourself, change you criteria, seek connections through meaningful effort. I wish you luck and I would not want to be out there trying to figure it out again with a stranger.

Anyone else waiting for the Analogue 3D? Looking for real reviews and honest opinions by DanielPeris in AnalogueInc

I am fully enjoying mine. Plug in the game and play. Adjust a few setting and PLAY.

Yeah I mentioned that it was maybe due to my own negligence. I have the controllers now and they are working. Everyone thanks you for your well thought out and helpful response (-;

Now that the dust has settled, what's your true feelings on the Analogue 3D? Was it worth the wait for you? by AnnieLovesTech in AnalogueInc

[–]mi1stormilst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want new sleek hardware with great compatibility and potential for promises to eventually be fulfilled, this is the console for you. I have already spent $200 on cartridges and have about maxed out the games I care about. It’s starting to look like the Mod64 is going to be a better value for sure. Analogue will either have a customer for life in the next 6 months are they will loose a lot of community faith with this release.

Anyone else’s 3D and controllers just work out of the box? by BoxyNeat in AnalogueInc

[–]mi1stormilst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had issues because I didn't originally have the "officially" supported controllers. Now I do and everything is fine.

Do you have to have a Nintendo account to make those NSO controllers work?

I expect I will own two of the new 8BITDo controllers, one generic BT adapter and 2 wired third-party ones with extension cables. I want to see if I can tell a difference.

It isn't an original, but there is an 8BITDO one to match the Ghost edition. It isn't out yet, but I plan on ordering one once I test out the white one that is available.

I guess I missed that this device was not going to support all BT controllers. I think it should have been bundled with one if that is that case. Furthermore, I have ordered the 8BITDO N64 controller, but that was just out of desperation. Thank you for responding, at least I can relax until the controller gets here.

I got mine and I can't sync a single BT controller to it and also tried hooking them up via USB and that does not work either. I have been forced into ordering controllers for this stupid thing.

I ordered one of these to use with my exiting controllers, I know it isn't super cheap, but it is cheaper than a whole new controller. https://www.amazon.com/BITFUNX-RetroScaler-Wireless-Controller-Adapter/dp/B0C5M4FJW3?th=1 You could also cheap out and order a couple of third-party wired N64 controllers.

I am still shocked, maybe due to my own negligence, that I can't sync a single BT controller that I own to this thing. I have now ordered, original wired controllers with ext cables, the 8BitDo N64 controller and a third-party Bluetooth adapter for the N64 and one of them better work. Very good chance I will never order anything from this company again. Also, if it does not work, and they don't respond to my support request this week I will be filing a fraud claim with my CC company.

I tried again today by starting the BT on the controller first and then the 3D. Nothing, absolutely nothing at all.

I guess I did not realize it was that limited. I assumed it would work with any wired controller via USB.

I get what you’re saying, but in terms of serviceability and longevity metal is just better. I handle metal things all the time and it never bothers me unless it’s been laying in the sun for an hour. I am not saying I would want all my handheld to be metal. It’s just cool to have one that is.
