I don’t pre-order but I do buy early access games. Unless it’s something genuinely limited edition and unique there is not reason to risk buying before release.

Most of them aren’t my kind of thing but I’m happy to get Hogwarts Legacy and Outer Wilds.

RetroGaming@lemmy.world•What is the cheapest console to get and collect for that still holds up?English
2·5 days agoIf you want something modern then I would recommend an Xbox One S (or a One X if you can find it cheap enough) because of the backwards compatability with pevious consoles and a lot of games are dirt cheap nowadays. Also as a bluray player or streaming stuff if you want that too.

2·5 days agoXbox One S or X is a really good choice if they want to buy physical games. Great backwards compatability and it plays blurays too.

Games@lemmy.world•Video Game Physical Software and Hardware Sales Just Had the Worst November in the U.S. Since 1995 - IGNEnglish
51·10 days agoI have mixed opinions on physical media but. I’m starting to agree with you on this point. In the past I’m all for having the option to buy it on disc/cartridge but when you have to install the game anyway and download a day one patch it kinda defeats the purpose of it. Also offline mode on consoles if just a joke at this point.

26·11 days agoWe’ll cut to the chase: In collaboration with multiple parties, we have recovered over 100 new Sega Channel ROMs, including system data, exclusive games, and even prototypes that were never published. We’ve also digitized internal paperwork and correspondence that reveals how Sega Channel operated, how it was marketed, and what would’ve come next for the service.
Wow!

RetroGaming@lemmy.world•It's kind of funny how many late 90s games had at least one drum and bass trackEnglish
6·13 days agoRollcage comes to mind straight away. 90s and early 00s games were full of jungle and drum & bass.
Lots of people make original music now influenced by the genre, like Pizza Hotline

Games@lemmy.world•Hands-On With the Miyoo Mini Flip; The Modern Successor to the GBA SP (my review)English
2·13 days agoIf I didn’t already have a Miyoo Flip v2 I would buy this version in a heartbeat. The love the clamshell design and portability of these things is a huge upside and I take it everywhere with me. I have been using MinUI on mine and it works great (especially quick save state and resume on open) but after reading your article I decided to change it up and move over to Knulli which has a lot more options.

RetroGaming@lemmy.world•What retro handhelds are the best value?English
3·27 days agoI have a Flip v2 and think it’s great. Very nice to use and carry around but the thumbsticks are average quality. It’s probably my favourite to take out with me.
So far I’ve tried a couple different firmware, MinUI and Knulli, and everything up to PS1 emulation is good but stuff like N64/DC/PSP can be problematic.
