Companies charging 50 bucks for 30 year old games is always cute. My brothers, people who want these games will pirate them lmao Fortnite kids ain't buying your shit.
Ignoring the dumb deluxe edition, it's roughly $8~$10 per game, I guess? ¯\(ツ)/¯ (price per game depending if counting 4 or 5 games, due to Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles)
I'm still gonna get it at least, though I'm waiting for the usual 20-ish% discount from 3rd party stores like GameBillet.

Though, the regional pricing is awful.

fucking how much??

No I don't care that this is a "remaster" thank you very much
Despite the style being as close as possible to the originals, technically they were all remade from the ground up (though Sonic 1, 2 and CD were remade years ago and now were updated into this collection). Plus all the additional bells and whistles that they're adding, this could have been a collection with nothing negative about it if it wasn't for SEGA doing "shooting themselves in the foot" type of actions (regional pricing, denuvo, ubisoft editions chart, ...).

Oddworld New 'n' Tasty was fine and I was kind of excited for a sequel but I guess it didn't take much to kill my interest in it.

I'll play it one day I'm sure but I won't pay more than 5-10 bucks for it.
going by how they were complaining about "lost sales" on PSN i wouldn't expect any discounts on launch (or good regional pricing)

This also means that they probably won't include it in a Humble Choice bundle.
they probably will - after it turns out that releasing a game 12 months late at full price doesn't bring millions of sales ;)

devolver jokes would be funnier if they hadn't also decided to start doing this shit:

I do wonder if it can come off as, I dunno, a cop-out? But I do appreciate how more and more games are just doing the "you know what, put whatever on whoever, however" for character creation because they realized making it modular is just gonna be easier anyway. Despite being a white dude IRL, if I never have to play as a generic white dude again in a game I'd be fine with it. Let people represent themselves, whether their normal body or their fanfic or whatever. I know I enjoy a game more that way, and everyone else should get to, too.

Hopefully when it releases on PC in 2023* it'll be in good shape.


*not exclusively on a store that sucks and I will never make an account for

actual_norwegian_guy Nuked my emu install and started again, so I took the opportunity to test SMTV on Deck.
I have configured nothing, so maybe Yuzu was set up very wrongly by default, but the game is… ugly. You can cut yourself on the aliasing. BUT… at first glance, intro + real starting zone, the game is 30fps 99% of the time, with maybe some long loadings and shader caching.
well the game is ugly by default i have to admit (jk, but the human models are just blurgh at times)
thanks, my guy is doing school work atm so i'll wait with the video

how ugly are we talking? we talking like 240p youtube, or like, just not working properly?

I wasn’t judging the art style, when I say it’s ugly I mean it’s jaggies wonderland. It works fine like I said, just where the hell is my anti aliasing ?
It was not as bad on pc, but it was in 1080p there, and I’m further away from the screen.

if i remember correctly, you can change on the fly (mostly except shaders like Vulkan and OpenGL), even anti aliasing or interpolation or something

they should be on the bottom left of the screen when you load up a game, with things like GPU High (or something with GPU xxxxx), Vulkan/OpenGL, and then some more (dock or handheld mode for preformance, etc)

if you're up for it, can you mess around with these and see if you got it to look better?

Nope, I'm at the end of my rope. Linux can go fuck itself. And the Deck in Desktop mode for good measure.
Horrible IQ on Yuzu.
45 minutes just to find where to put the product keys for Ryujinx (special mention to the tutorial that seem to talk about linux but point to %APPDATA%)
Sub 30 perf with slowdowns on Ryujinx.

My point is not that you can't have better performances, my point is that I'm just tired of fighting with this franken console. You can use the emu in linux mode, you can use it in steam and you can use it in 'big picture', and every fucking mode has its own problems.

Jesus, I will play some steam games in big pictures, sorry to try something a little out of line, ffs.

Yuzu (linux mode) was set to 0.5 resolution scale. Once put to 1 it still seems to output 30fps and looks good.
Now to get Yuzu (BigPicture) to work with custom controller layout. Sweating.
Yup, Deck mode looks very fine 1x 30fps.
I just can't for the life of me assign the key to go from or to fullscreen, which is, for an emulator where you could have to tinker, a fucking dealbreaker.
