PS1 games and memory cards are all originally mine from when I was a kid, same with the GameBoy games and the GameBoy Pocket.
The Pokemon Stadium and Digimon card books are complete as well 😊
Insanely good game, can't wait for Tomba 2 with a good sale.
Thought this would be interesting. Anyone else see examples of historic art that inspired gaming ?
Despite a few initial issues like screen flickering, and a persistent 1fps problem when winning a car, I would say RPCS3 has been easy to setup and the game looks decent upscaled to 4k.
Disclaimer: the image in the post isn’t from my game (its from a wiki) because I’m away from my PC right now.
I bought a red Toyota MR2 GT-S ‘97 ASAP and put some 18” 5 spoke wheels on it. I love this car.
The lack of a 20 minute unskippable intro video, not having someone ranting at me the whole time I try to play and a clear game loop with satisfying progression means GT6 easily dunks on modern games like GT7 and Forza Horizon 5.
Get car, tune car, race car, win car, do the licensing tests and then buy a new car and repeat for the next class. Fucking perfect!
Damn near all my favourite cars are included in the game so modern games offer little more than graphics and claims of a better driving simulation.
I find GT6s driving to be a near perfect mix of sim and arcade with enough options to tweak.
Feel free to discuss what you like about GT6, favourite car/s, other retro racing games and emulators you’ve had experience with. I’m just dropping this post here because I’m so happy with this game.

I’ve been thinking about buying one of these for a while but finally bit the bullet now that companies have started raising prices due to the RAM/chip shortage…
And it turned out to be the best purchase I’ve made in a while! It’s a ton of fun gaming on this little thing. I flashed a custom operating system on it and am now playing Castlevania & Secrets of Mana with RetroAchievements support (which adds achievements and progress tracking to retro games).
I’m also playing a lot of random PICO-8 games since it runs on the device and I can easily browse and play free games on it. Low-key wish I had bought it sooner with how neat it is.
Anybody else have a retro handheld here?
Geometry adjusted, emulators optimized for 240p. This consumer 14" CRT doesn't show great scanlines but if you play very near is good.
This Blueretro adapter works very good on GameCube slots for bluetooth controllers like my 8Bitdo Pro2.
I learned PSX emulation isn't very good on Wii so not the definitive 240p retroconsole but it covers a lot for very cheap.
Daggerfall is the prequel to Skyrim. I'd never played it until seeing it for free on Steam recently.
I bought an unmodded PS3 super slim model and all the games pictured below for about $100.
I haven't been this excited about gaming in years. I never had a ps3. It was one of the few consoles I didn't own since all the way back to the nes.
First thing I did was mod it by putting hen on it so I could use my usb headset while playing since I do not have speakers connected to my monitor.
Now, I am playing the uncharted series for the first time. Out of all the games there, the only ones I have played are Skyrim, GTAV, and the last of us. I played a bit of the batman games, but not really too much of it so I consider it unplayed.
I can get more games where I live for about $6-$12. I think the PS3 is going to be my new gaming console for a while.
If you have a modded ps3, what hen compatible homebrew apps do you recommend? I do not think I will do any piracy since the games here are so cheap, but I am thinking of copying the games to an ssd and running them over a network (I think that can be done with HEN).
I have a small ssd which could hold a few games at a time and I think that will be better so I do not put too much wear on the optical drive.
Sorry, for the long post. I am just really excited about this. I have always had the opinion that gaming started going downhill in this generation.
Oh, also, what other games do you recommend I pick up?
I already have fallout 3, new vegas, god of war, and the injustice games. I have a steamdeck, but since games are so cheap, I want to build out a ps3 collection.

I was watching some random YouTube video that was listing arcade games for some reason (I honestly don't even remember what the video was) and they mentioned a game called Cyber-Lip. I'd never heard of it before but it looked cyberpunk to me so I had to dig deeper. Apparently it's a Neo-Geo arcade game made by SNK in 1990. It's basically a mix between Contra and Metal Slug, except Metal Slug came out in 1996 (also made by SNK). So I guess this game must've been SNK trying out the Metal Slug formula.
Anyway, I have no idea what "Cyber-Lip" means, and I'm not entirely sure this game is cyberpunk beyond the first level. Except the main character is definitely a 90's cyberpunk:
But this game got me thinking... what other cyberpunk arcade games are there? As obsessed as I am with cyberpunk, I can only think of a couple titles that are close. There's the Tron and Discs of Tron games, although those are mostly cyberpunk-by-proxy due to their relation to the movie. But what else is there? The Aerosmith rail-shooter Revolution X?? There's a shoot-em-up called Last Resort whose first level looks cyberpunk to me but I don't think the rest of the game is. And that's all I can come up with! That's crazy to me.
Cyberpunk was in its peak of popularity while arcade games were still popular and yet I'm not aware of any other cyberpunk arcade games. I'm obviously thinking more of the "retro" arcade games here but even if I include modern arcade games, nothing comes to mind.
So help me out, what arcade games can you remember that even might be cyberpunk?
This is my third DSL. I love these things. It's the most I've spent on a busted one so far, at $30. The last one I bought was 12, and the one before that was 5. All this one needed though was a new shell and a digitizer. Both screens are in excellent condition. The shell was very yellowed and busted.
Anyway, I had just learned recently that eXtremerate made DSL shells, and I decided I needed to try one out. I am a huge fan of the Switch Lite shell I have from them, it feels nearly OEM.
The DSL shell, not so much. The plastic is pretty soft. That's kind of nice, since I have had issues with previous aftermarket DS shells cracking. The bottom screen bezel is molded in, which I also like. It's hard to get the adhesive ones off without ruining the digitizer. The upper shell does not have the dual square DS logo molded into the top, which is also appreciated. The fit is also very good. No unexpected warping, everything fit together fine.
But the plastic is so soft.. I'm afraid it is going to scratch very easily. Plus, it's painted. I thought it would be gray plastic with some UV printed logos, but it is white plastic painted gray with UV logos. Sort of disappointing. If I ever re-shell it again, I'll get one of their transparent ones. But yeah, probably the best aftermarket DS shell I've seen so far, overall.
Did you know there's a decent DOS emulator for the DS? You aren't going to be playing Doom, but you can play Oregon Trail! Or Jetpack! And lots of other earlier stuff. Bind the buttons to keys, use the stylus for mouse input.
