Yo! Also couple more details in the alt text! ❤️
*Also* also, I dunno, but I love this outfit and general style -- experimented with other clothes and stuff, but minor changes aside, I always went back to this 😅

Worst issues I'm seeing in terms of image quality is some ghosting at high contrast edges, like with the text on Mario 64's star select screen, but that might just be my setup, like the S-video cable.
Overall tho? Pretty pleased and happy to be able to play N64 nicely again!

Honestly, I think I'm good with S-video + that RetroScaler for my N64, no need for an RGB or HDMI mod. This looks plenty sharp and vivid to me personally. Also love Draco's character design in this game :3

Brawler64 arrived! Still need to put more time into it, but first impressions with Mario Kart & Smash Bros. among others are good!
Stick definitely feels different from official, but shouldn't be hard to adapt to. Not that I've played with a fully working official controller in decades, anyway...

Got a wired Brawler64 on the way~
Looking forward to playing more N64 on real hardware again, having the SummerCart64 and a decent upscaler from S-video now, and hopefully a decent controller soon :3

The moment I read "skill issue", I could hear a certain kusogaki gem/rock quietly say that in my mind, and burst out laughing 😅

Sometimes I can't help myself and bite during Black Timespan™®©...
Got Pokemon Legends Z-A for OG Switch for 38€ on Amazon DE, instead of whatever the MSRP is -- 50 or 60€, I think?
Definitely having fun so far! :3

Got a new toy, a Retroscaler 2X -- a Composite, S-video and Component to HDMI converter with optional line doubling and "smoothing filter", and allegedly/apparently a clone of the original RetroTink 2X.
Tried PSone via Composite and N64 via S-video so far; works quite well~

I don't want Visual Studio "deep platform integration of AI" 2026, I don't want VS "open source AI code editor" Code, all I want is a decent IDE with working, non-AI auto-completion/suggestions, and debugging and profiling of C# code without needing workarounds :|

For #RandomGameSaturday, a not so great photo but, from what I can tell, a fine adaption of the TCG at the time, and one of the system's vertical games -- Bandai's 2002 Digital Monster Card Game Ver. WonderSwan Color, for, well, the WSC~

Been improving my old "English mode enable hack" for Digimon Tamers Battle Spirit Ver 1.5 (what a mouthful!) for the WonderSwan Color a bit the last few days.
I'm pretty positive I got all instances of the GPIO check remnants, fixed a bug in the original localization, tweaked some graphics, etc...

God, my C is reeeeeeally rusty... but here, have an emulated WonderSwan Color, err...fading from black to green, and black to green, and black to green...over and over.
... hey, it's something, leave my high-level C#-using self alone! 😅

Ahh, I knew I recovered it a while back alongside the rest of the data from a mostly dead HDD -- my old, IIRC relatively complete Digimon D-1 Tamers save data from 2006. Would be nice to use this on an actual WonderSwan eventually~

Not 100% sure if it's strictly purple, but probably Nintendo's purple/clear GameCube controller, with the purple front and translucent clear back!
Got mine over 15 years ago, maybe around 2008? Still works great and is my go-to for Cube and Wii games like Mario Kart, Smash Bros or Zelda WW/TP.

Still not finished by any means -- not tested, HDDs not back in, not screwed together --, but we're looking good so far 👍
