Tetris & Dr. Mario does not save high scores. No battery save, so when you power off the console, high scores are wiped.

But there’s a hack you can apply (to the PAL rom) to make it save high scores!

So it only comes with one controller, it isn’t actual hardware, it comes with ten games (pretty sure all the Atari Flash back games had more), and I’m pretty sure even people nostalgic for Atari games will admit they’re too basic and archaic to bother with these days.

Eh.

I think you mean Danny DeVito.

Castlevania: Circle of the Front Burner

I’d love to be able to play Kingdom Hearts II, Super Mario Sunshine, Super Mario Galaxy…Maybe in the near future. We’re already seeing a big bump in console power right now.

Real hardware, not emumation.

Name checks out.

Same, honestly. No PC atm, just my little RP2+, though my right stick is wiggly and R1 doesn’t work anymore. ;u; Considering getting the RP2S just because it fixes all the issues I have with the 2+, and it’s still super cheap. RP3+ doesn’t have magnetic hall sticks, and that’s huge for me.

Steam Deck would be sick, but it’s pricey as all hell. Maybe the price will go down if they release a 2 Steam 2 Deck.

The PlayStation 2 had three GTAs.

GTAV had three PlayStations.

Oh, and definitely make sure the battery contacts aren’t corroded/had leaky batteries, though if you’re gonna swap it for a rechargeable one, it may not matter?

PS2 had pressure sensitive buttons? No shit, I had no idea.

Hell yeah! The cheapest thing you could do while waiting for parts, I think, is clean it up, like removing and de-gunking that sticker.

Honestly, I appreciate the Virtual Boy. It was ahead of it’s time, both positively and negatively. The 3D was a sort of prototype for the 3DS’ technology, and it worked well, especially for the mid-90s. Having a 32-bit console you can (kind of) carry with you was a dream back then.

The only issue was having to make so many concessions due to the cost of the 3D technology. 2bpp display? Bright red? Giant-ass brick you have to tape to your head? Bleh.

Pros: Your Virtual Boy can be safely carried without risking damaging it or losing parts.

Cons: You own a Virtual Boy.

I’m kidding, this is neat. c: Always love seeing people taking care of their older systems.

If anyone is looking at this and wishing there was something even smaller, have a look at the Thumby, the true handheld for ants.

What in the goddamn…?

Okay, but, again, I don’t have the cash for something that expensive. Even the base model is $400.
