I like literally died, haven't been in Australia for the past two months haha, been away in Singapore for work.

Too feckin' humid there.

Back in Aussie Land now, so I'm back baby.

^ but am I a tasty taco though?

V needs to invent better laundry powder/stain remover.

Yeah, they're probably going to release a new Switch to address the BootROM/Tegra flaws in the current Switch, due to homebrew/piracy concerns. Apparently the new system-on-a-chip is codenamed "Mariko".

I want my old games on my Switch, immediately.

Agreed.

When I installed all the DLC and bought all the upgrades/packs for HW for Wii U, and I got all those "Unlocked" notifications at the start of the game when playing on a different user, took like 10 minutes to get to the title screen... GUHH

I host my own Teamspeak server for chats with my tech friends, we usually hop on every weekend and talk sh*t.

Whoa, quite the collection!

I am curious, how does playing the Wii games fair? Is there a viable way to use a controller, despite having no motion controls? I would love to be able to rig my Dolphin emulator to play them better.

I have a neat setup currently where I use a Raspberry Pi to use this streaming technology called like moonlight that communicates with ShadowPlay from NVIDIA on my desktop computer and stream the screen to the TV, and send the USB input to the computer as well. It's the closest thing I've gotten to replicating a couch-to-TV experience with "upgraded" visuals while deviating from original hardware. The GameCube experience is really good running at a forced 16:9 ratio and 1080p quality with heavy sampling and other smoothing techniques. The N64 one works moderately well, I just had to get a USB controller for it instead, but I am at a total loss on what to do for Wii.

Works rather well, I played Metroid: Other M and Mario galaxy 2 all the way through using a wii Remote and a Bluetooth adapter.

Works really well, cheers Kyde

If you have a GC controller lying around, and can flesh out the $30 (I think) for the GC to Wii U adapter (USB), it's really great. Dolphin supports it out-of-box as well. I've not personally tried with an Xbox controller so it's really down to what you prefer, I guess.

I've used an Xbox controller with Dolphin for GC games, actually worked quite well, also with Project64 too.

Now I just have a corded USB GC Controller and a Logitech Wireless Controller and they both work neat.

Most of my games:

I usually stick to Telegram, IRC and Discord (Mainly for Voice)

Other than that, Messenger is only there for my non-tech friends who don't know how to computer.

Personally I think Skyward Sword would be the next to get the HD treatment, though considering a lot of the game was based around motion controls, quite a few areas such as the Ghirahim battles will need to be reworked.

I quite enjoyed the Champion's Ballad, especially the

A big thing for me was the music for the dungeon and its boss battle.

The best way to get into these old Gamecube games is to fire-up a Dolphin Emulator and source... *somehow* a copy of the game.

Most modern PCs now can run Dolphin at a decent speed.

Oh wow, that's really cool Shannon. Keep up the good work!

Mexican Snow Angels?

Woo!
