Problematic gaming era gap

Oh and also 4 exists. Better unlockables and stuff but the vibes are off unfortunately. Has crusty early GBA game vibes, and the starting game selection kinda sucks.

On the topic of cute lil Gameboy games Game and Watch Gallery 1/2/3 are fun collections. Lots of fun visuals and stuff. Also they really expect you to lock TF in and get 800 points in every category on every game lol. Wowie 100% seems brutal.

Also been getting into a lot of niche-er games lately. Here's Mole Mania, with a color patch applied (I'm a sucker for GBC pallettes okay lol) Fun little sokoban adjacent game. Definitely recommend it if you're a Gameboy fan.

If you know me, I Am Just Like This On a related note, I downloaded Sonic 3 AIR to my phone and wowie that's some bad audio latency lol. Like half a second easily. And nobody knows how to fix this yay

Been trying to address some bad audio latency on emulators on my phone Disabled this Dolby Atmos app. Might be placebo but also whatever audio improvement it gives also seems to be placebo so IDK lol Not enough for me though. Might dig through system files to reduce the audio buffer later. 🙃

Like yeah gaming sucks now and I find myself playing really old games more than newer ones but like. The idea that nothing of note can ever release again only come from people that refuse to play anything that's not AAA.

#Deltarune Something I don't see get brought up enough: The references to Earthbound. This isn't just a funny reference surely. It Means Something.

Deltarune fans are starting to just outright deny major facts & themes People will just look you square in the face and say "Don't Forget" and "Find Her" are just irrelevant track names. Like bro. Come TF on. Toby was right for calling out the fanbase, holy moly. The theorizing side is so bad now.

I mean I get why it's not like the Iga games. He's still making those games. I just wish Bloodstained didn't suck... Maybe the sequel will be better.

All-in-all, I still love it. But you need to keep the phone case thing in mind before you jump in. Otherwise I would recommend this to anyone remotely interested in mobile emulation, it's that good. I plan to revisit my score in a month or two to see if it's just new toy syndrome.

Lancer (Not Deltarune) @notherside.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
...This. I had to carve up the bottom of my phone case to make it fit, no easy task. I don't even think my case is all that thick and yet it wasn't even close. It's one size (doesn't) fit all. No adjustor, no available variants, nothing. This was why I was hesitant and it wasn't unfounded.
The bottom of my phone case, chewed up and somewhat jagged. It's just dense rubber so it won't cut you but not ideal. Surgery performed with a box cutter... And a pair of toenail clippers. You could go caveman mode and tear off the bottom entirely but it wants to rest on a case.

Lancer (Not Deltarune) @notherside.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
Now if it's so amazing to play with (within it's limitations), has a great form factor to bring everywhere, an ideal price point of 30 usd (playing your old favorites on the go for half the price of a full game that's inevitably mediocre? Sweet!), what's the catch?

Lancer (Not Deltarune) @notherside.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
You're essentially stuck with mono audio. That's the phone's fault but still. No way to use wired headphones. An aux jack where a hinge is would of been amazing. Could of rested on the screen better. I don't think it'll cause any serious issues but the peace of mind would of been great.

As for the nit-picks... The dpad is *incredibly* clicky. Makes for a good fidget toy but it's a bit much for public spaces. Not gonna work for a doctor's office or under your desk at work. Buttons could of been bigger or the controller itself smaller, I feel.

Lancer (Not Deltarune) @notherside.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
What separates the Flip Pad from other phone controllers is the portability, the incredibly small size. It's the size of a credit card, though thicker of course. It's easily pocketable, the easiest of any phone controller. You can even plug it in backwards to keep it attached but out of the way.

Lancer (Not Deltarune) @notherside.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
You can even play full on PC games directly on your phone nowadays. Gamehub lite and Game native make this possible & it works quite well with games like I've described, & of course browser ports. There's rumblings of an official Steam method coming soon. You can in fact play #Deltarune on the go.
Black Knife simulator, a browser port of the Knight fight.

You can get whackier with it than that. Games that use a sideways Wiimote are a cinch, but even GC/Wii level games that don't need analog sticks are easy to adapt to. Stuff like Paper Mario 64/TTYD or Kirby Air Ride are more than playable. You can potentially use touch buttons too if needed.

It's also very good for GBA and DS games. You can reasonably play even mixed buttons and touch games like Scribblenauts or TWEWY if you desire, or even games with gyro support like Kirby's Tilt and Tumble.
Sonic Rush (original). On MelonDS. Unfortunately doesn't scale well on my phone, and the screen gap is a little wonky even with the game shoved up and behind the camera cutout. You can have the screens in any orientation you want however, and can swap the primary screen with a button.Warioware Twisted. On GBA.EMU. I'm not very far and there wasn't a good gameplay screenshot so have an image of the first stage's clear screen lol

Lancer (Not Deltarune) @notherside.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
In spite of the small size of the buttons it's actually very comfortable to play on. The layout is a little weird but it's not hard to adapt to. It is, naturally, built for 2D games that don't use a lot of buttons or are slow paced. Perfect way to make your phone a pokemon machine.

I'm a pretty hardcore gamer, and very much prefer 2D games, so good D-pads and buttons are a must for me. And it passes with flying colors. In spite of the small size, I haven't had a single accidental diagonal. Tetris plays like a dream. akouzoukos.com/apotris/down... (Again check alt text)

Time for my review for the #8bitdo FlipPad! #Emulation Let's start with the score and work from there. Easy 9/10*. I've had it for a week and been using it sooo much. I got it with the intent of reducing social media usage and it's been doing it's job really well. (Be sure to check alt text)->

The Knight has armor, but there's nothing suggesting it's any different from say Kris's armor. My confusion is about how it's allegedly Shadow Crystal armor.

Lancer (Not Deltarune) @notherside.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Where'd this "the Knight is wearing Shadow Crystal armor" thing come from anyway? It seems like complete fanfic if I'm being real. #Deltarune

Oh no yeah, I just needed to actually review the photos lol. I snapped them quick without thinking before I left for somewhere.

That feel when you take a bunch of photos to show off your new gadget but your face is reflected on the screen 🫠 Was gonna post a review on the 8bitdo flip pad buuuut yeah... Tldr for now though is that I love it, but there's a few issues.

It sure feels like Sakamoto stumbled into it but never really cared about that direction. Honestly there's a lot about Super that seems like Sakamoto was itching to ditch.

Today I found out about the fan made classic Mega Man ports from NES to SNES. I've known about these conversions before but the Megaman ones are new to me. No graphics changes, just performance upgrades. Well and quick swapping and alternate soundtracks but yk. archive.org/details/mega...

Deltarune fans sure love to insist that Undertale and Deltarune aren't actually connected and that you're not actually supposed to compare anything between the two huh

Well yeah lol but I meant like. Having party members that cooperate with you and there's dialogue to go with it.

When Deltarune's story doesn't end with sunshine and rainbows and [major character] did bad things, all hell is going to break loose. Not to mention if the community built up something that won't happen.

It's maddening. Stories can't be stories anymore, they gotta be about blorbos doing things with other blorbos with all equal screentime and they can't be problematic and- Then when the story inevitably isn't that, people get mad.

Funnily I think he hit the nail on the head with Toby's newsletter comment, how people are just shutting down and crapping on speculation... But he also went "yeah yaknow Knight candidate talk is fine." When that's transparently and obviously the most toxic part of Deltarune discussion. 🫠

Autism and BPD are one hell of a combo huh I'm prone to arguing very passionately about things but also my understanding of social cues is very very low so I kinda just. Don't know how to stop lol Then there's all the other shit I got but it's those two that are most outwardly apparent I think

Man, my accidental repeating myself and double reassurance-ing is really bad lately. Like "also, xyz. also, abc" back to back unironically. Or I'll go "x means y" then the next sentence "x means y" rephrased I think my unmedicated ADHD is getting way worse because of my other meds. 🫠

www.8bitdo.com/flippad/ New gadget... Coming in a few days. Trying to cut down social media usage and this seems like a good way to do it lol. I already game a bit on my phone, even even with touch buttons. So it's definitely not going to waste.

Besides just being slop, is also probably stolen. Again, obviously bad. But this is *spectacularly bad* for a project like this. OoT and some others had their official source code leaked online. If the AI steals it and Nintendo catches wind of it, it's GG.

Ah geez... I loved playing on the N64 decomps. I mean I can still use the old versions but yaknow. I dunno if using AI tools in coding is the devil or not but this certainly seems to of crossed some lines. Beyond the AI assets (obviously a no no) there's a lot of generated code which... ->
