Quoting: XpanderPersonally i don't care if its done in a way it doesn't annoy me.

Never seen this or similar line before...

One thing using tools (terrain, robot-voice generator and/or similar) with proper attributions, but whole "AI" with totally legit "training" and many other s**t surrounding it.

Quoting: Mountain ManWhy do they bother when they know Nintendo is going to shut them down? 🙄

Not happened to a single decomp so far

Banjo Kazooie should come at some point hopefully since that's 100% decompiled now

Not sure why you disapprove so much over such old games being ported to pc lol

It's not that I disapprove. Rather, we know for a fact that Nintendo will slap this project with a "cease and desist", so those hobbyists are just wasting their time.

Years, decades later, because hobbyists today "wasting" time, people sailing high seas or random ex employee took something home, will be only preserved, archived, existing copies, samples of tech.
Indeed, waste of their time...

Quoting: redneckdrowI just got to thinking: am I the only one who thinks that this doesn't improve the preservation problem? :huh:

I see as ports to current/modern systems. "Preservation" use for PR to sell copies. ROM dumps, ISO cloning or what id Software (and very few others) done with source code and proper archiving, public availability - what's preservation.

Quoting: PyreticThey're only switching to UE5 now, just so that they can stay ahead on engine updates and stability.

Switching to point release messing thing up, not to mention major jumps. IMHO, switched to UE5, because everyone on internet can't shut f-up about it. Should gone with UE4, it is more stable and better performer, just look how over the place UE5 games are, especially if lost setup lottery or hardware dated a bit.
Because how long development take, switching tech around not good too. One of many reason why so called AAA release are so borked and in development hells.

Quoting: missingnoForget about power, I just want a Steam Deck Pocket. One that fits in my pocket.

1st: Sub 10W, 1-5W or something for SteamPalm/Pocket/Pouch.
2nd: Chip for SteamDeck 2, generation leap? from barely 30fps to solid 60fps same game same power consumption.
3rd: 60-180W for SteamConsole or for those who constantly droning about 144Hz and 4K, SD-PPS (Portable Power Station edition aka always in the wall socket).

Quoting: pleasereadthemanualSome patents The Pokemon Company owns: https://patents.justia.com/assignee/the-pokemon-company [External Link]

BS filed 2019-2023 and granted 2023-2024... Yep, those NEVER existed and are totally new innovations, nothing like this ever have been done, nothing in those decades, a half century of games and virtual worlds...
Sadly... will be plenty of fan(atic)s and general corporate backside lickers defending it.

Quoting: ElectricPrism- Multiplayer

Live and kicking... everything must be/have multiplayer... First, properly finish main/single-player game, than can shoehorn other stuff (multiplayer, co-op, platforming, survival, battle royale, skins, NFT, etc), preferably, without messing-up latter.
Plenty examples of "extra features" adding addition figures to production cost not to sales number.

Quoting: elmapulcoming from the company who made the steam controller and put macros for specials in fighting games as an built-in advertised feature...

And what's wrong with it? Not all game are competitive multiplayer. Not all have perfectly functional dexterous hand.

Quoting: PyrateFurthermore, people asking for Deck 2 to run current games... do you guys want to throw $1K or more on your handhelds?

Couple to few time that, top of the line struggling with current release "quality" and "optimization" way to often.

Hopes... proper jump in hardware, not undervolted laptop APU/SoC; proper world wide and average (big) electronic store release and availability; not targeting enthusiast and people with no sense and too much cash to burn... not many can replace hardware every 3 year or less (or get free samples), a lots beyond 5 or even 8 year mark.
