The theory behind this is with the ever increasing topics when a new game or firmware comes out, how frustrated are you when people don't read, or are just plain 'silly' (I'm watching my choice of words) when it comes to common sense and hell even using the search or sticky functions.

Every 4.2 question, preloader, HBC ios error, how to hack their WII step by step plz, what firmware to use, or what Flash card to buy starts to get to you. Especially after dozens of posters here and every other forum dedicate their time to write reviews and guides so detailed an Amish person could figure it out.

Let the frustration out. I see there's been topics like this before, but why 'grave dig' and bring back topics, when there's so MUCH frustration now.

Retal: Awww Retal, look who proves my POINT, lol. I help via PM. Because posting is just that posting, making a 10pg long thread about a topic with maybe one or two useful posts, it's kinda retarded. Actually helping someone and seeing them go "jesus it's fixed, my wife/gf/parent would have killed me", is a lot better then having ur post lost behind retards and cynical arseholes.

Also, I lerked for about a year, until I actually broke down and bought a NDS/WII system, so why would I be on here if I didnt have one of those. Oh and yea, I was a US Marine for 6yrs, doing everything you see on tv, commericals and video games that you play and actually making a difference, so Retal get off your high horse please.

I'm still helpful and post more before becoming a jackass. It took me like 5,000 on Smash World Forums and I got bitched on forever before I became cynical. Now I'm hated by every moderator and almost destroyed an administrator and a super moderator and revealed most of the inner workings of the website.

Beat that.

I'm a mix of 2, 3 and 4. So basically I'm cynical, always providing useless posts, without ANY knowledge, and I like to give (mostly useless or bad) advice.

You registered this year and only have 100 posts.

@ Retal: The man joined in May, so basically that's 5 months. What's wrong with 100 posts in 5 months? I suppose you yourself voted for the 3rd option, because it seems so...

Awww Retal, look who proves my POINT, lol. But see if you look there's no posts about me asking questions or being retarded, because like all great individuals... I read. Also I help via PM. Because posting is just that posting, making a 10pg long thread about a topic with maybe one or two useful posts, it's kinda retarded. Actually helping someone and seeing them go "jesus it's fixed, my wife/gf/parent would have killed me", is a lot better then having ur post lost behind retards and cynical arseholes.

Also, I lerked for about a year, until I actually broke down and bought a NDS/WII system, so why would I be on here if I didnt have one of those. Oh and yea, I was a US Marine for 6yrs, doing the sh!t you see on tv, commericals and video games and I was actually making a difference, so Retal get off your high horse please some of us have more to do in life (though this is fun).

I enjoy helping people as it increases my post count, thus increasing my penis size.

Surely posting would be better because it doesn't just help that one person; it helps anyone who has a similar problem.

I see your point, however it doesn't really help... especially when 99% of the time the answer is already mentioned on the site, or other sites. Which just create more chaos lol. So, posting for the sake of posting isn't always the best way. There's a reason why we have stickies and tutorials.

If you look, when I find something specific that hasn't been mentioned before, I note it in a new topic. That why it's there for people when they search. I also use "TAGS" that when people search they can locate topics easier.

Wrong section?
unsure.gif


Anyway, im pretty much 1 and 4 on this

although when the same question is aked a million times, i do sometimes get annoyed and just say google or use the search function, or anything to just annoy that person, so on some times cynical as well. its those types of questions like " When is so and so dumped?" , "can i play GBA games on my R4?" "how can i make cheats appear on R4" "what flashcard do i buy" (those threads ultimately end up in an open argument about which flashcard is ultimately the best)

    RG Cube is going to be good for ps2 if it's $100

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, and since the default emulator is below average i downloaded some "replacements" like snes9x for snes games for example
    +1

    And I also have my ps3

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea ps3 is a beast still to today compared to most "sticks"
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you just want pi for emulation no point when Anbernic releases new shit every two seconds
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.
    +1
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
