A controller frame for my phone. I'm now carrying around a DS, N64, PS1, SNES, and GBA with me everywhere I go. I'm looking forward to adding Gamecube and PS2 and 3 to the list in the future. I can also play PC games in my bed, but can't quite take that around with me because it's streaming from my PC.

a gamesir x2. It's got an absolutely awful name (i think they were trying playing off of the gameboy's name?) but it's narrow enough to fit in the pocket while in its case, and that's good enough for me. I also got it pretty cheap, so i'm not worried about it getting scuffed or stolen while taking it out and about either.

Sounds cool. How do you like the streaming from your PC?

[–] HipsterTenZero@dormi.zone 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

its kind of bad, because I've got some pretty garbage internet. Steamlink works well enough for slow paced games like balatro and stardew, but anything like skyrim or binding of isaac has noticable problems and multiplayer games are right out.

I've heard of people running SF6 sets with no trouble though, so ymmv

That's unfortunate. I play mostly platformers and action rpg's, I kind of wonder if those types would do alright on a setup like that. I've also been considering something like a steam deck or handheld pc. I haven't been doing much gaming for a while now, mostly because my accessibility/comfort is too low I think. I'd like that to change though.
