    Retro-Bit shows off its "improved" take on a Dreamcast controller, set for release this year

    it really confuses the hell out of me that people dont like additional buttons and improved features. like, if you want the exact same controller then just buy the originals which have been readily available for the last 20 years. theres a bunch of fighting games that will benefit from the extra...

    Gaming Switch Online REMOVES OFFLINE FEATURES FROM SOME GAMES!

    i tried disconnecting the wifi and it didnt help. also who do i contact? Nintendo or Bethesda? i highly doubt they would fix the issue just because i asked them to. the only way to get stuff like this fixed is to get people talking about it and i figured this was the best way to do it. this is...

    making a snes repro and need some help

    i have not tried using the untouched ntsc rom. any time i try loading a game in ucon64 it always says that the game either has 8kb of sram or none at all for some reason which im positive isnt true for super metroid since i own an offical cart and can confirm that it should at least be 64kb. i...

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Good idea, or at least power the GPU
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's not the movies or games downloads that I would worry about, like breaking into networks, downloading encrypted things, spying on network traffic. I have seen so many "Top Secret" seals on files when I was a kid

    Ship to ship communication software for the Navy although without access to the encrypting chips it was mostly useless
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I bet now a 4090 could probably crack it? Hmmm maybe not even back then I'm pretty sure they where using like 1024 bit encryption
