Any new year resolutions? (to be fair I didn't pick one) โ€” Sort of. I made a list of some things I want to try to do or change this year and so far I haven't had the energy to follow through on any of them retrospring.net/@taizou/a/1138

Best non-licensed console fighting games? โ€” the Vast Fame ones on GBC. They use the engine from Takara's KOF games so they were working from a solid foundation but they're really good. Especially Queen Fighter 2000

Favorite original (i.e. not a ROM hack) bootleg/unlicensed title?โ€ฆ โ€” Squirrel King. It's one of my favourite Mega Drive games overall & probably the best example of Gamtec's work on the system. Fun to play, great musicโ€ฆ retrospring.net/@taizou/a/1138

i need a new chair since my current one is barely holding together. but my desk is small & most chairs don't fit under it so really i'd need a new desk first. oh but a bigger desk with drawers won't fit so i'd need a separate drawer unit too. at this point i can't be arsed

It's frustrating though because this same company previously made 2 devices with IMO perfectly good controls, the D007 and D-R35 Plus, they had decent d-pads and big chunky face buttons so its weird they reversed track on something they were actually doing right

Show thread

On the hardware side the screen is nice and it feels well built but i'm not enjoying the controls, the D-pad doesn't have much pivot & gives false diagonals, and the face buttons are too small and far apart. So even if the OS issue can be solved this might be kind of a miss sadly

Show thread

It probably is able to boot from SD though since the SOC can usually do that as standard. So a custom OS is probably possible but it's unlikely any existing builds will work since they have to account for the screen and controls. And who knows if any devs will take interest in it
