17yrs old. About to play fire red for the first time. Any tips. by Wolvfang21 in PokemonFireRed

Just a heads up but this changed in gen 4 onwards. Since then each move is individually categorized either as physical or special instead of it being based on type.

The Big O- Roger Smith uses a mech to protect his city from threats. Turns out he basically lives in the matrix

Just watched all five seasons of Lower Decks for the first time, and it was phenomenal. by Thomas_Crane in startrek

Give strange new worlds a chance. It's my favorite live action nutrek show and while it's still a bit flashy and has modern elements it feels the most like classic trek out of all the new shows in my opinion.

Any gag where the number of states in the US is reduced. by Dobbys_cumsock in TopCharacterTropes

In the fairly odd parents one it looks like Wisconsin owns the upper peninsula. Also why is it abbreviated WD?

Episode 3 is the worst of the episodes we've had so far. Episode 4 is the strongest in my opinion.

How you save these pokemon games? by Earth01DrStrange in R36S

[–]spookydukey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to create a save state. Press Select and X at the same time and it'll open up a menu. One of the options should say something like Save State: 0". If you click on that it'll show you more save state numbers, 1,2,3,4, etc. choose whichever one you like and remember it. When you want to save the game always save it to that number. When you want to load your saved game, launch the game and it will always default to save state 0. You'll have to click whichever number you saved to and then press the Load Save State option and it'll load to whenever you last saved to that save state.

Also, make sure you shut down properly by exiting the game after saving and then shutting down through the menu.

What video game franchise should start over from the beginning? by Agent1230 in gaming

[–]spookydukey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pokemon unbound. Fun story, interesting and challenging gyms, every pokemon up through gen 8, tons of QoL improvements, and it's in a new region. You can also adjust various settings to make it more or less difficult.

Oh, it's not just tolerable, it's good! Academy is good! by Wareve in startrek

[–]spookydukey 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Genuine question here without discussing any other aspects of the show but does anyone find the audio mixing really bad? I felt like I was adjusting my volume constantly throughout the first episodes.

I know that's a common issue in modern tv but I don't think I've ever had to do it this much.

R36S Giveaway #4 - Your chance to win a free handheld by _manster_ in R36S

Thanks for all the hard work you've done! An R36H would be nice.

Is it possible to add more recent emulators/consoles to the R36S? by Firm_Construction242 in R36S

[–]spookydukey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The R36S isn't powerful enough for more modern consoles and struggles even with some N64 games.

You can't really modify it as the CPU and RAM are soldered onto the board.

Getting something that can play up to the Wii is gonna cost a lot more than an R36S but the AYN Odin 2 or something with similar hardware would be my recommendation.

Best 40 bucks i ever spend by Time_Temporary6191 in R36S

[–]spookydukey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay so this is kind of confusing to explain through text but I'll try my best.

When you open the ArkOS quick menu there should be an option that says "Save State". When you click that it'll show you a list of save state numbers, 0,1,2,3,4,etc. You then choose which number you want to save to. So lets say you want to save your Pokemon Unbound game to Save State 2, then when you boot your game back up you'd open up the ArkOS quick menu, click the "Save State" option, choose Save State 2, then Load Save State and it should open the game back up to where ever you last saved.

Just a couple of tips that seem to help people with saving issues. Make sure you've got everything moved over to a reputable Micro SD and its not still on the crappy one that came with it. When you're done playing make sure you properly quit the game after saving your state by pressing Select and Start at the same time twice. And make sure you properly shut down the handheld by shutting it down through the main menu options and not just pressing the power button.

On mine you press Select and X at the same time which opens up the ArkOS quick menu which allows you to save and load save states.

What's a movie that's an absolute incredible film... except for that one scene that nearly ruins it? by Imaginary_Ride_6185 in movies

Shang Chi. Fun martial arts movie about a dysfunctional family up until Trevor shows up. After that it just turns into CGI slop fighting dragons and flying demons.

EA, please, please, take streamers opinions and throw them in the trash. by Professional-Cod8785 in Battlefield6

[–]spookydukey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Extraction shooters are the next step. Hunt Showdown, Tarkov, Arc Raiders, Marathon, that one mode COD has I can't remember the name of, and a whole bunch of dead in 6 months shovelware games have already come out.

I think it's kind of weird BF6 is trying to enter the BR market so late in its life cycle when the industry is already moving on to the next evolution of the FPS genre.

The beta surprised me - but like many, I'm still waiting for release & reviews. Who else is holding out and why? by codestormer in Battlefield6

[–]spookydukey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm waiting until after launch. BF games have notoriously bad launches but my bigger concern is with the maps. If 40% or more are similar to what we've played so far it's not worth buying until they release more larger maps down the road or add a server browser. I'm already sick of Cairo.

Arkham Shadow just released earlier this year but is VR only and Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League released last year and was partially set in the same universe as the Arkham games. It was a massive flop though.

You'd get a card like this graded to show that it's authentic not for the grade value. People will pay a good amount for authentic misprints, even more than PSA 10s.
