I remain pretty bummed out by the state of decompilations, ports, FPGA cores etc these days. The rise of GenAI has really flooded the whole scene with garbage and kinda poisoned the whole concept. Good piece from @pandamonium.bsky.social on it www.segasaturnshiro.com/2026/09/24/c...

Reminder for everyone - the CEO of ModRetro is Palmer Luckey, who is a war profiteer (1), AI weapons manufacturer (2), fascist surveillance state supporter (3), genocide enthusiast (4), and pedophilia supporter (5). Supporting ModRetro means you're supporting fascism. Sorry, that's just the truth.

The chintzy-looking M64 clone console of the N64 by a company named ModRetro has been released, I think, I don't pay attention that closely to shit. But as the great @frankcifaldi.bsky.social posted before, it is our civic duty to push back against this company and shun ANYONE who doesn't.

Even if raising taxes doesn’t close budget deficits, it should still be done if only to keep the ultra rich from accumulating such vast wealth that it distorts every aspect of society. Even if the money is confiscated and burned, that is still vastly preferable to them having it
It will not work, and is wrong in principle

from the perspective of someone who might want to be president, the best time to run for the white house is now, not later. so if AOC is thinking about it — if the white house is her ambition — then her best bet is to throw her hat in the ring

Elite media has always been eager to protect Trump because if he was shown to be so fundamentally unfit for the presidency it would delegitimize the GOP which placed him there and thus call the system into question. Now that he is the representative of American order that task becomes more essential
Right on cue, here are the push alerts from the 3 major newspapers lmao

Shame any company or influencer that talks about this piece of shit, or the M64. If you actively shill any products from #ModRetro you are complicit in the spread of fascism and the killing of innocents. Palmer Luckey will burn in hell. He deserves to be shunned from society for his crimes.
I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

I am begging people, please stop trying to use Resetera as a source for anything. The entire website is filled with idiots that get high off the smell of their own farts It's not a journalism site, it's a fucking web forum It's like trying to use Reddit as a news source

3) No physical edition at all. I don't understand it. The Battlefronts were far more popular than Bounty Hunter or Jedi Power Battles, yet they got treated like garbage. The Classic Collection is probably my greatest gaming disappointment of all time. #StarWars #Aspyr @aspyr.com #JediPowerBattles
@modernvintagegamer.com regarding your MMCE video, using A2 rated microSDs can help a lot with stutters on slim PS2s. Something like SanDisk Extremes, the higher IOPS really helps a lot.
