- Comment on I regret to inform you all that I will not be purchasing the OoT remake. 4 days ago:
so much snappier than running on emulator.
Yep, that’s because it’s a decompilation of the original game’s code under the hood, which was then recompiled as a native PC application.
Meaning Nintendo can’t do shit about it, unless HarbourMasters decides to start making charging for their PC ports?
- Comment on Microsoft patent describes in-game advertising triggered by boss fights, loading screens, and cutscenes 1 week ago:
I’d suggest looking through F-Droid, IzzyOnDroid and other FOSS repos for mobile games. I’ve found a bunch of mobile games that have as much depth as the ad-laden ones.
Hell, the reason I got back into mobile gaming recently was because the developer of Poinpy decided to make their game free on Google Play, remove microtransactions, and make the entire game playable from start to finish with extra modes. It feels like a Nintendo game in the best possible way. The main character Poinpy even looks like Kirby, which is reinforced by the ending of the game.
It’s ironic that even Nintendo hasn’t gotten mobile gaming down pat, either going the gacha route with Mario Kart Tour and Fire Emblem: Waifus, or trying to do the paid model and failing at it with Mario Run and Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp.

Indies, romhacks, fangames, recompilations, mods, etc can extend the life of any game nowadays.
- Comment on Costly Disappointment 💸 1 week ago:
Lemme give you a personal example of how fucked everything is:
I was fired from my cyber security job back in March 2025. The only interview I got with a real human was with this one IT repair company that repairs school laptops. The interview went pretty well. Y’know, aside from the interviewer looking at my resume before asking me why I was applying for the job as I was overqualified. He then followed up with, “Is the job market really that bad now?”
I did my best to answer in a way that made me seem enthusiastic for the job, but deep down I knew he was right, and that I was overqualified for the job. Needless to say, they didn’t move forward with me.
That was July 2025, and I haven’t found a damn job since.
If we don’t get tribunals for every single fucker who fucked the economy sideways, there is no hope or future for this country.
- Comment on Costly Disappointment 💸 1 week ago:
Yep, experience is what employers are looking for. It’s best for college students to work alongside getting a degree if they have the time and resources to do so, even if it’s a work study or internship.

In most cases, yes.
But then you get a Mario Strikers Battle League, or a Pokemon Scarlet/Violet once in a while.

- Goodreads (never had it) to Bookwyrm
- Tiktok (only used it once, no account) to Loops
