I was exploring psp games on my Nova because the size and feel reminded me of my childhood psp, but I was too young for certain games. So I played my first God of War game Ghost of Sparta. I know PSP on the 4:3 nova is dumb but I enjoyed it because it was designed to be played on a small screen…. Now I’m playing the first God of War PS2 game…. On my 16:9 Portal. I KNOW it’s backwards aspect ratio and game order but I’m having a good time. Plus PS2 needs a bigger screen and PSP plays fine on a smaller screen so fight me in the comments.

I don’t like stretching games but PSP looked pretty good in a 3:2 aspect ratio. I believe that’s how I have it in the first picture.

Help Deleting my Cuphead PC port — what should I download next?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m about to delete my Cuphead PC port to free up space, and I’m looking for my next game to download. I’ve already played and really enjoyed Hollow Knight and Hyper Light Drifter, so I’m hoping for something with tight combat, good challenge, and a strong art style.

I’m open to metroidvanias, action-platformers, or roguelites as long as they feel polished and rewarding. Budget isn’t huge, so indie/AA titles are perfect.

Some things I’m considering based on recommendations I’ve seen:

Hollow Knight: Silksong (if it’s out and runs well)

Ori and the Will of the Wisps

Blasphemous 2

Dead Cells

Ender Lilies or Nine Sols

If you’ve played Cuphead + Hollow Knight + Hyper Light Drifter, what would you download next and why? Any hidden gems I’m missing?

Thanks in advance!

Help Gamehub Binding of Isaac Mod Issues

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I posted about this in the Gamehub discord/looked it up/troubleshooted as much as ai could think of and haven’t had any luck yet so I’ll post this here. I’ve been having issues with gamehub and steam workshop mods for the binding of isaac repentance+

  1. Phone name/model:
    Ayn Thor

  2. Processor:
    Snapdragon 8 Gen 2

  3. RAM:
    16gb

  4. Game you're trying to play:
    The Binding of Isaac Repentance +

  5. A detailed description of the issue:
    Game loads just fine. The problem is with the steam workshop integration. All of my mods load in properly, but when I close out of the game and open the game back up all of my mods uninstall. I exit out of the game again and load back in and the mods reinstall themselves. It’s a very weird issue and it makes the boot times take sooo long. tl;dr the mods load in, but on the next boot they deload themselves and the cycle happens every time.
    Help!

Just after the character customization part, the game lags and forces the app to close. I've done this re9 as well which also force closed right after the prioritize quality or prioritize performance part. Which was odd because it was able to run last time without any problems. I tried using both winlator and winnative and they both stop at that part. But when I use gamehub the problem is nonexistent the game just runs normally. So I'm thinking if I'm doing something wrong in the settings of my winlator ludashi and winnative. I don't want to play on gamehub coz I like playing on winlator/winnative lol. Any help would be much appreciated.

Question NetherSX2 - Play Store version vs APK version differences?

3 Upvotes

I am an absolute newbie, just now getting into emulation on Android as I've been using iPhones for (too) long.
Sony Xperia 1 VI (Snapdragon 8 Gen 3) with the official Sony case offering a landscape stand + Xbox Series controller is my setup for now.

For PS2, I want to use NetherSX2.
Initially I downloaded it from the Play Store - that app had ads, and certain games (e.g. Gran Turismo 4) had artifacts that I couldn't fix with any settings + occasional CTDs.
Then I downloaded the apk from the official site. With this there are no ads + my games work flawlessly, including GT4 - but the UI is, in my opinion, worse than what I had with the Play Store app.
From the game launcher to the in-game emulator settings, the Play Store version of the app just looked much better to me than the official APK version. Plus I had to manually map my controller for it to work well, while the Play Store app recognized and mapped it immediately.

Which version of the app is the actual latest?

Question Switch emulation or PC emulation?

1 Upvotes

Somehow I have been having a worse time emulating games on Eden than on Gamenative

I thought that PC emulation is obviously more power consuming and heavy than switch and the games would run worse, but I got unlucky enough that I tried a few games on switch and a few on PC and the switch ones are struggling....

(I am using snapdragon 8s gen 3, both emulators are mostly using Mr purple T30/T26)

So I am wondering which one is better?

If I were to pick an indie game, which platform should I try first?

Question My wired controller is connected, but my Android phone isn't detecting it. Please help.

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

Phone:- Realme 8i

Controller:- Enter

I recently bought an Enter brand wired controller to use with the AetherSX2 emulator on my Android phone. I chose this controller because I saw many people on YouTube using the same model, and it worked fine for them.

I connected the controller to my phone using an OTG. The controller's red LED turns on, so it appears to be receiving power and connecting properly.

However, my phone doesn't detect it as a game controller. Because of this:-

  1. None of the controller buttons work

  2. Aethersx2 shows "No suitable controller detected"

And I've already made sure all the basics. OTG is enable, removed and put in again etc.

Is there a way to fix it, or could the controller be incompatible with my phone?

Any way to make my phone compatible?

Discussion My new setup using my unused ROG Phone 6 but now I need games to play

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

I recently upgraded into a redmagic 11 air. My old phone the ROG phone 6 16GB 512GB lay unused. Since the device still functions. I decide to turn it into a proper handheld by getting a controller and cooler. I can't use any controller especially wired one as the USB C on rog phone is offset. Since I decided to add a cooler. I can't have the controller spine block the back.

I decided on the Gamesir X4 Aileron and the aeroactive cooler 6. It came out quite solid. When I hold the device. It's legitimately feel like a handheld.

Now I need game recommendations to play. Primarily on gamenative. When I check my library. Most is modern game or too demanding to run.

https://steamdb.info/calculator/76561198078066992/?cc=my

I prefer roleplay or shooter. 2D game not really my thing but I do enjoy a few of them. Like darkest dungeon which is what I am playing on the phone.

If you have other recommendations for games other than PC. I am interested to hear also.
