Time extension sucks ass. It’s a usability nightmare. Wish I could block all links to it in my feed.

They might be able to do what Taki did and source the components they’re looking for directly from the manufacturer rather than using existing boards.
I do think this is a big stretch, but things in this market are starting to change.
I doubt this, but the Mars FPGA project supposedly will have a Dreamcast core and it’s being supported by respectable people in the community. The mister cores for everything else could be ported, though without the support of the original developers that might be a bit sketch.
I still doubt it, but I don’t think it’s impossible
i don’t think it’s reasonable to say “most of the people are happy with that”. Most people in the US are definitely NOT happy with how the medical industry or insurance works. But i do think it’s fair to say that most people don’t understand that voting for the guy that says they will prevent higher taxes is also working to keep the insurance system in place OR they would rather have lower taxes than better insurance (and are too dumb to realize that would be a net gain) OR they don’t vote at all.
Hyperkin’s products, especially the retron line, are generally considered sub-par for this reason. They’re usually just android-based systems that run emulation from a rom they dump from the cart at runtime. Since they’re low-spec and emulation focused without some of the refinements that come to those emulators over time, they have glitches on some games.
Nice dude, I’ve got the first gen DCDigital and don’t think I’ll be upgrading because it’s good enough for me and I think I’ll use an external scaler instead with it and other devices.
I’ve spent way too much on my Dreamcast. It’s got a MODE, DCdigital, and now this VM2. It’s an awesome system, I love it! I only wish there were more minigames for the VMU that had more features. I’m sure it’s hard to do with only 128kb though so I get it.
There’s some awesome mods to restore headphone jacks in the SP, but I myself prefer the original GBA form factor anyway.
Actually, my preferred ways to play GBA are in the following order of preference:
Analogue Pocket
GameCube GameBoy Player (with a SNES controller using an adapter I intended to link but the Etsy shop appears to be gone now)
MiSTer GBA core
OG GBA with a screen mod
My wife and I have rewatched all of game changer at least 3 times. It’s easily the best $45 I spend each year.
That’s actually how the pocket works. It uses separate fpga’s for the cores and display modes.
I’m definitely interested in hearing more about it. No openFPGA is a shame. Since it’ll have a bigger fpga than they’d been using, it’d be nice to see what else you could do with it as a platform like the pocket.
I’d also like to know this. Pi-hole has been pretty great.
The latest episode of ATP had a big rant about how fucking stupid app review is. It honestly seems like it’s being done by ChatGPT or something it’s so fucking stupid.
Sonic Mania has a very good built-in CRT shader. It’s not a perfect recreation, but it think it looks excellent! And I also think it looks really great on a CRT using a downscaler.
Or the gameboy player on the gamecube!
Yeah, you’re pretty much right. Interlacing complicates it a bit more because not only would the previous frame “fade” but half of the frame was drawn, every other line, and then the next half. So it didn’t look like a flicker because it was basically 60fps for half of the total screen, but an alternating 30 frames for each half of the image. This is why on early and terrible transcodes, you can get a “comb” effect, it’s not properly combining the image per frame and showing you half of the last frame and half of the next frame and the motion in the image shows in combs.
It’s really interesting stuff, imo.
The RetroTink 5x Pro i think has some (hacky) ways to pretend to output HDR to get a decent effect. It’s definitely developing!
Oh man I LOVE my Sony PVM 8045Q! I’ve been really wanting one of those consumer grade 9” ones, like the KV-9PT60. But they go for quite a bit now!
This is a dope account! I did think you meant it was an account like CRTPixel on twitter, but it actually just looks like an artist who’s aesthetic is CRT Pixel art. Super awesome!
