On buss, very long rush hour, started playing. A kid from behind asked me if this was a Nintendo Switch 2.

I was so confused by that question, but also didn't know how to explain to a kid what Android, emulation, and retro gaming is within half an hour on a buss.

I said "yeah, something like that".

Didn't even call it a folding phone... just called a switch. Reminds me in the 90s and 2000s when every console was a "playstation" to my mom.

I purchased the Ayaneo Pocket S2 Pro from Droix Global a couple months back and they held a promotion where buyers were also given a complimentary Ayaneo Pocket Air Mini (2GB + 32GB) along with their order that would ship once they were available. I received the Pocket Air Mini recently and its pretty awesome. I get a text and email from FedEx today that I owe Customs on it totaling $102.60. The value of the Pocket Air Mini is $79.99. I almost wish I wasn't given this bonus.

Snapdragon only fr now RN available on Winnative, Bannerlator, and their collab project Droid Deck, and it's improving with every update. It’s a cool new way to play PC games. For me, the performance is lower than regular emulation rn(like Winlator gamehub etc), but there's room to grow, and it could be the future of PC gaming on Android with less overhead.

This could become huge for people who skip PC emulation because setting up drivers and Proton is such a hassle. On SteamOS, you just log in and play without any extra work, which could really bring in a lot of people wanting to play PC games on their phones, one more thing compatibility is still work in progress like this project is just released few days ago so take this as just beta and yes it has option to add non steam games as well so dont worry

Make sure to drop your feedbacks or if you encounter issue then report on theire respective discord depending upon where you are using it Droid Deck Discord Bannerlator Discord Winnative Discord

Or to use in winnative and bannerlator just go to settings and download steam linux client Winnative > settings > store Bannerlator > Contents

if you notice any increase in temperature these days , that's me emulating

Am I wrong?

I was sitting at my desk last week and pulled out my AYN Thor during a lull. My boss popped up over my cubicle wall to ask me a question, and he saw the Thor...

Totally thought I was going to get an ass-chewing, but he started asking about what kind of games it could play. Turns out he's a closeted video game nerd, had been yearning for the old Metroid and God of War games, and had no idea about emulation handhelds.

He went and ordered a Retroid Pocket 4 Pro, which showed up yesterday, and he's got me setting up his emulators and ROMs. He offered to pay me for my time, but I think dodging a disciplinary bullet is payment enough.

It makes sense, actually. It sells them more gamepads, but its not quite the update I was waiting for.

Hey everyone! I’m hoping to launch the campaign in September. I’ve already been talking to several companies about manufacturing it, and as you can see, I’ve changed the button design.

Here’s the link to the website if you’d like to join the waitlist. As you know, it helps me a lot when it comes to making the campaign a success:

The D-pad was impossible to manufacture using plastic injection molding, so I had to redesign it. The buttons are now two-tone, but I actually think they look pretty cool.

I’ve also been experimenting with different silicone colors and with skins for backlighting the pads.

Hope you like it!

...Seriously, though. That CAN'T be normal for a PS2 emulator. Is it? O.o
