Pretty glad I skipped the current gen consoles - my last one was an Xbox one S. Still have it around to play DVDs and blu ray lol. Steam deck has been the best gaming purchase and I don’t see myself going back.

It’s like Christmas at Jackie Chan’s house!

I think the most fun I’ve ever had with Gex is watching Dunkey’s videos making fun of it lol

It’s a fun game with some nice visuals but for whatever reason I lose interest fairly quickly. Like it’s a nice little Saturday afternoon game - I’ll have some fun with it and then move on to the next thing. Worth the $5 or so it goes on sale for quite frequently

If you’re feeling confident to open it up you could try loosening the screws a little that hold the board to the shell on the Dpad side too. I’ve had to open mine quite a bit to get it right lol

So I had this problem on my modded GBA, my solution was to ever so slightly loosen the screws on the dpad side of the shell. Turned out I was over tightening them

Nice I didn’t even realize it was on sale, I played it on Game Pass a couple years ago. $4 is a great price for the game as it’s pretty short but a fun experience nonetheless. It has a cool soundtrack too

Donut county is a short but sweet game that is both relaxing and funny. My nephew got a kick out of Untitled Goose Game too.

Baldur’s gate 3 for me, easiest difficulty so I can play out the power fantasy and enjoy the story

I didn’t know they artificially ramped up the difficulty! That game had a reputation when we were kids! Thanks for sharing

I mean I suck at the game and play on the lowest difficulty, I just think the story is awesome. I’m the wrong person to ask lol

I just bought Balatro on Fanatical which came with a free game voucher so I picked up Grip: Combat Racing asking with it. Both really fun games.

Tempted to get FF7 remake but I need to put in more time with a Baldur’s gate 3 before buying another big game

Yup you nailed it, think classic top down Zelda but with more fast paced bump combat/hack n slash combat depending on which game you’re playing, and less puzzles. Don’t be ashamed to use a walkthrough for Ys 1 and 2 as they are originally made in the late 80s/early 90s and have some obscure elements to them (find a boss before getting x item and you will get one shotted/ won’t be able to damage him, etc)

Check out the Ys series on PSP and Vita, they are some of the best games I’ve played through on my Vita. Digitalemelas.com has a lot of really good info on it.

Also obligatory Persona 4 Golden

The RG35XX is pretty great, nice color choice too! Looks like I need to update my GarlicOS, my games list is still centered with boxart in the background.
