    Microsoft lays off nearly 2,000 employees, cancels upcoming Blizzard game

    My thoughts exactly, having lived through 2 different merges and acquisitions in the same company, I've seen my coworkers lose their jobs on a whim. Unfortunately, I think most people don't consider it, given that they think their positions are important (and maybe it was before the merge) or...

    Steam's new currency change for Argentina and Turkey created a big price increase for certain games

    It's a shame that Valve pulled that move instead of cracking down on easy region changing. Nintendo managed to fix that issue for Argentina in like 3 days when it became widespread, but instead they picked up the easier route. And the worst thing is that they decided to just fallback to USA-USD...

    Analogue 3D - an FPGA based reimagining of the N64 announced

    That controller tease looks like 8bitdo, that has me interested.

    Adblock on fire tv?

    You can either try a DNS based solution like Adguard DNS or Pi-Hole (if you want it local), either setting it up on your router or by manually setting up networking on your stick, or give the Adguard app an try, which in theory should work like Blockada on unrooted devices (by setting up a local...

    "Game Porting Toolkit" by Apple will allow Windows games to run on Mac, similar to Proton on Linux

    It's unfortunate that the first reply to this thread is pure and unadulterated bullshit. This whole shebang is Wine (Crossover is Wine with a few extra patches. Codeweavers actively helps with Wine development with money and expertise) and a fancy DX12 to Metal pipeline. If it weren't for the...

    UK's CMA sides with Microsoft in latest update to Activision-Blizzard acquisition

    Sony's net worth should be around $108 billion USD today, meanwhile Microsoft dropped $68.7 billion USB in cash, it was a hyperbolic but neither Nintendo nor Sony could pull off something like that AFAIK.

    UK's CMA sides with Microsoft in latest update to Activision-Blizzard acquisition

    See, the lack of foresight strikes again. Osaka laid out a possible future where Microsoft boils the frog slowly and pulls the rug under you, while you're concerned with now, your whole point right now is "it's okay game pass is good microsoft lets us buy the games discounted", meanwhile you can...

    UK's CMA sides with Microsoft in latest update to Activision-Blizzard acquisition

    Nice argument, buddy. Let's all commemorate Big Tech buying a company, paying as much as their main competitor is worth and becoming a gaming conglomerate, we all love Big Corps here, right? Amazing how shortsighted people are, and how well Microsoft sold this "small fish in big pond" underdog...

    Retro Arch is mind-blowingly amazing! 😯 (❤️ Dreamcast)

    Give playlists a try, they were made specially for that. They can also replace a heavier frontend like EmulationStation if you are using just RetroArch by providing the basics right (system playlist + game named after file + title screen/boxart thumbnail) if you want something more minimal.

    Translation Clannad for PS Vita English fan translation released

    Most of the Vita's library is composed of indie releases and weeb games, there wouldn't be a better console to get a release than it.

    Editorial Can an Android phone be the perfect emulation handheld?

    Console Launcher with custom icons, as mentioned in the video and within the article. Alternatively, take a look at Daijisho for something easier to mess around with.

    Editorial Can an Android phone be the perfect emulation handheld?

    You're missing out the point. You aren't taking your PC everywhere, are you? Sure you can stream from it but it still limits your options somewhat. Furthermore you can still find great options with microSDs like the Poco X3 Pro for emulation, Samsung's high end models just suck on that point...

    GBAtemp Exclusive 20 years of GBAtemp.net

    Happy 20th! Long live to the Temp! I gotta say I'm thankful for the Temp, it was a major part in my life even though I'm mostly a lurker. I started lurking around 2007~2008 since it was the main hub for scene releases and homebrew. I was just a kiddo that barely knew English. As time went...

    Editorial Digital downloads vs. physical copies of games - which do you prefer?

    I'm pretty neutral overall, new physical releases are crippled, as you have mentioned, and if they even pull the rug over my digital titles, I'm willing to pirate them back. So far, the latter hasn't happened for any title I've owned, so I feel safe. So for me, it ends up boiling down to...
