Having the reader on the back was easily the best spot. The only thing I miss from my old phone.

Maybe give the universal android debloater a try. Its a pretty useful tool.
Oh, I know what you’re talking about. I got a “new” phone a few months ago. Was thinking about either the pixel 4a or Samsung S10e, and went with the latter.
The cool thing is that both of these phones have LineageOS support. I didn’t try it yet, but LOS sounds pretty awesome, I hope that I won’t be disappointed.
Awesome to hear that it works on real hardware. It’s so cool to play new mods on decades old consoles.
Absolutely. The Wii U modding community is really active, I feel like there’s something new every few months. I love it!
And that’s fine too, I think. This is what gave the Wii the perfect backwards compatibility, allowing many more people to enjoy Gamecube games on original hardware without getting a Gamecube, which are way more expensive today.
And you know, the Wii is like a beast when it comes to sub HD stuff. It’s the most powerful console that ever released that wasn’t designed with HD TVs in mind. That lead to many Wii games just looking really damn good and clean. Seriously, Mario Galaxy on a CRT in RGB looks absolutely stunning.
But maybe they did go to far trying the same thing again with the Wii U.
I know I know, you’re right. This is a rather temporary setup, I plan to arrange the consoles a bit differently so they’re less in the sunlight.
Even now, its just during the evening, and my Gamecube, which is the most susceptible to yellowing, is already kinda yellow unfortunately. Same for the wavebird receiver.
But you’re still right, I should put something over these consoles for now.
Right? It feels like gaming peaked with the 6th console generation. Just a fun time to look back at.
Yeah, having some evening sun shine into a room just gives it a great vibe. I just wish it wasn’t 29°C in here
Anyway, thanks for commenting as well!
That VCR is from my parents, they don’t use it anymore. I don’t really have any tapes for it though.
We had the first 3 Star Wars movies on VHS, which was the reason I set the thing up. Unfortunately, these tapes have somehow disappeared completely, they are nowhere to be found.
So it’s just decoration for now, but I’ll definitley get some other movies one day. Thank you for your comment!
Haha true, but only dust for me, no pets. I guess having carpet doesn’t help either. Let’s just say that it adds to the vibe.
Micro Mages, let’s go! This is such a cool game, it’s always great to see people online play it on anything but a PC. I for myself played it on a modded Wii on a CRT. I love how everyone plays this game differently.
Anyway, nice little emulation console you got there too, glad it worked out with the custom firmware as well. Enjoy!
Really interesting to read through! Thanks for sharing :)
Big phones suck so much. I’m using a Samsung S10e, because that’s the only model I have found that is small and actually pretty good, despite its age. What phone are you using?
Now this was interesting to read through. I guess that’s what money does with us.
Maybe. It’s definitely good at what it does, playing music.
I really like this app. Though it does seem to have google tracking according to duckduckgo. Maybe inevitable because it’s getting the music data from YouTube? But that would mean that it wouldn’t work while blocking the trackers, but it does work. I don’t know, just felt it was worth pointing out.
Besides that, pretty nice app. Works well, has a nice UI.
This is sick, definitely gonna check that out later. The Satellaview is such a cool device, kinda retro futuristic. The idea of using satellites seems crazy today. What a shame it never released outside Japan. I guess making such a service work in other countries would have been really expensive.
Oh man, I really have to play Superstar Saga again. Started it in 2019 when I got a GBA for the first time, but every time I took a break from the game it was larger than the one before. That’s kinda weird too, since I remember the game quite good.
Anyway, I always forgot the button combinations for the different attack moves. I somehow still made it to the final boss but never beat it, because at that point I just forgot basically everything. Really one of my weirdest playthroughs. Definitely have to check that game out again, thanks for reminding me about it. Good luck with your playthrough!
Yeah, its absolutely not a space problem. The Samsung S10e has a headphone jack, a SD card slot, and has a 5.8" display. Its way smaller than the vast majority of phones today, yet it has all of these features.
I think we all know the reason apple removed it was because they can sell you the worse product for more.
