Hey guys,

So this is not a post defending Nintendo or anything, I would not consider myself as a fanboy, far from it. But I've noticed something about directs, and why I find my opinion being much different from the online consensus.

I think that there are two types of people that play on switch/switch 2. People that have more than one gaming platform and use the Nintendo switch to play mostly exclusives and people that only play games on switch.

Nowadays I'm on the second group, I do own a computer for work, but as a working adult with a career and kids, it's hard to find the time on a regular basis to launch a different platform. Although precise data is hard to find, I did find some es

Hey,

So I know everyone is busy trying to showcase their GTA VI set-up, but I have a different question from simpler times.

I've been using SNES9x EX+ but I'm done with it (mainly due to losing a 12 hour save of Lufia 2 due to the emulator hijinks). Which dedicated SNES emulator do you guys use? (Don't really care for retroarch)

Thanks in advance.

Chegou Agosto, estamos oficialmente no Verão.

E para mim não há verão sem Melancia. Sim Melancia com maiúscula, porque é a única fruta que merece nome próprio.

Em agosto é quando a melancia é mais saborosa e mais barata, é o ponto alto de uma época cheia de humidade e calor.

Mas este ano, desde junho ainda só comi uma boa melancia. Antes achava que era porque ainda não estava na altura, mas ainda ontem fui a vários supermercados e frutarias diferentes e não encontrei uma que prestasse. Até a melancia escolhida e pre-cortada pelas lojas é uma vergonha - esquálida, raquítica, grumosa.

Nunca vi tal coisa. Alguém sabe onde comprar uma boa melancia nesta altura, ou pelo menos o motivo por

Hey guys,

So I need to buy a phone to replace my pixel 7 with a dying screen.
I just care about camera, ease of use, reliability, no ads/clean android, and had a bad experience with Chinese phones. I've narrowed it down to these two.

I can get the Pixel 9a for 365€ (with a 40€ store voucher included) or a Pixel 10a for 390€ (with a 40€ included as well).

I mean any other generation the extra 25€ would be a no brainer, but from what I've read the pixel 10a adds nothing (aside from an extra year of support, which I don't care - I'll use the phone for about 5 years, tops), and some reviewers actually find the camera worse.

Which one would you get?

Thanks in

Hello. My almost 4 year old pixel 7 screen is dying (vertical lines on the screen, that increase very day, replacing it would cost about 200-250€).

I liked the phone. Always ran a bit hot, battery never lasted more than one day, replaced the battery last year (bloated), and the connectivity sucks but everything else just works, and no bloatware. Came from a pixel 4a, my wife has a 7, and now a 9a.

This is the worst time to buy a phone and everything is very expensive (got the 9a three months ago for 350€, now it's 480€), so I was looking at other brands, and I'm looking for help!

Needs:

• Under €500
• Good camera - I have kids and the phone is my main camera that

Hey,

So it's basically the title. I played this game, and absolutely loved it over 3 years ago.

I just bought the DLC. I've forgotten a lot about the game story, but I remember enough (including the twists) that it doesn't warrant replaying the game - and from what I see New game + is basically a super hard mode or just cruising with my endgame gear, none of which sound enjoyable.

Is there any good complete plot summary videos to watch before playing the DLC?

Thanks in advance.

Hey,

So I was absolutely loving this game/rom-hack, and already had about 20 hours in it.

Today when I started the emulator (Pizza boy A basic), both the save states and in-game states were completely gone (including of other games). It's an older Pixel 7, and I'm the only one with access to it, and I didn't do any manual or automatic clean recently. Searching for .sav only brings up the new save I created today as a test. I had even created a new folder in /documents/GBA

I don't mind starting the game over, it's a blast so I'll up it to expert this time. But, I would hate it if it happens again. Anyone had this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Boa tarde,

Alguém que use com frequência a Amazon/Amazon prime reparou recentemente num aumento brutal no tempo para entrega, e sempre em datas fixas? E o atraso não vem do envio, mas até enviarem...

Será que começaram a fazer consolidated shipping/bulk shipping, ou será uma situação transitória?

Desde já obrigado, e abraço a todos.

Hey,

I wanted to export a save game for the only game I play on android (Exiled Kingdoms) to a different phone.

The issue I'm having is that the game creates the savegame to the Android/data/data/ game folder, which I can not access without rooting the phone apparently. After a lot of googling, I've tried a lot of things to no avail: I've tried plugging the phone to the computer and using dev tools, file explorers (total commander, x-plore etc), using shizuku to empower these apps but in Android 16 nothing seems to work.

I've tried installing a previous edition of the game that exported the savegame to a different folder (storage/0), but my phone won't allow me to run the game because it

Hey!

So I don't know if anyone is still around here, but I really like this game, and I wanted to finally finish it.

I wanted to export my old save game to use on my new phone.

However when I try to export the save it doesn't work - since Android 16 uses a "Hidden" Android/Data/Data folder, and not and not the older Android/Data, the backup save isn't created. I can't salvage the original files without rooting the phone because Android no longer allows that.

Whenever I try to use cloud saving the game crashes.

Anyone knows any workaround? I didn't feel like starting over, I have over 20 hours on this save.

Thanks on advance!

Hey everyone,

I'm in Portugal, looking for a new budget laptop to use mostly for everyday use but I would like one with a dedicated GPU - a weak one will do - on account of ocasional video processing and 3d work - my current laptop has a 1060 and it works fine for my needs. As for the budget basically add 30% to what you would pay in the US and you got our prices.

However since I use it in a professional setting a discreet design would be much appreciated, nothing that screams gaming.

Here goes the form;

Total budget: 1300€, if possible under 1000€. Let's say 950$-1000$ to get the same thing I the US.

Are you open to refurbs/used?

Yes, but not really much of a deal over here.

Hey, So I'm looking for a new vacuum for my 1000 feet hardwood apartment (and future 2500 hardwood home), and after reading around and asking for help here I narrowed it down to a bagged Miele, either a C3 or an M1.

However I have a couple of questions to choose the actual model.

I knw the M1 is the redesigned C3 with a new bag system. I've read some people here say that the M1 uses cheaper plastics. Is it true?

Secondly is the parquet head (regular one, not XL) worth the extra 40€?

Basically I'm trying to decide between the M1 guard (259€), M1 parquet (299€) and the old C3 complete parquet (349€).

Thanks in advance.
