have some more Thor posting!!

It’s been around a month since we got these things and I’m having such a blast! It’s so fun to just open it, browse my launcher, look at my cute icons, and never actually play a game because I only have 15 minutes between lessons at work ;-;

but this things been a lifesaver for my breaks. there are days where I have a lesson early in the day but my next one isn’t until later, so I just hang out and play it at work. it’s better for me than being home and most of my coworkers just stay the whole day anyway.

I’ll make a breakdown post about my setup and the experience of getting my gf into the console and how she’s learning how to use it. These things are not beginner friendly but she’s doing pretty well with them. Her layout on iisu is so much cuter than mine lol.

Been mainly playing Ultra Moon, Attack of the Saiyans, DB Fusions, Tetris DS, and surprisingly Roblox lmao. I’ve also been playing a lot of steam games, and I’ve perfected the config for Sparking Zero and will probably make an updated video for that soon.

If you have a Thor, rb with a pic of ur layout bc I need inspo pls </3

theydies and gentlethems, I present to you: the dragon ball page.

I’m having a blast with my ayn thor and I’m super happy that it arrived a few days earlier than I expected. My bf and I ordered ours at the same time so I spent the day setting up software on both of them while we were at a quinceñera lmao.

Right now he’s playing Pokémon pinball and I’m playing Dragon Ball Fusions and Attack of the Saiyans. Both very good games I gotta say and I’m really surprised I haven’t played them sooner.

Will be posting updates with my bf’s Thor and the eventual decoration stage with decals and charms and shit.

Post coming soon featuring me and my gf’s AYN Thors!!!

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero (Steam)

running on a Retroid Pocket G2 through GameNative.

I’m kind of blown away by how well this runs on this chip. I’ve spent the past couple days testing this game on both GameHub and GameNative. I ended up settling on GameNative so I can have the game installed externally. It was mostly the same process to get this set up on both apps.

The game is running at 480p, lowest settings, medium anti aliasing, and a frame cap of 30fps with an engine.ini tweak to fix the slowdown. It looks pretty rough, but my weird workaround has been to turn on the CRT filter on GameNative to blend it together a bit. And it actually looks rlly rlly good this way.

I’m gonna make a full video breakdown on this setup and my settings soon, as well as an Emuready report. I’m currently waiting for a new microSD to come in tomorrow and that’ll hopefully make it load faster than it is now.

Android gaming is getting pretty damn serious. I used to play this game pretty regularly on my Steam Deck with a frame rate cap of 45. Playing it on this is definitely a bit choppier, but it’s more than playable. And it honestly doesn’t even look too bad.

Crono in Card Sagas Wars, a fan-made fighting game 👊

I love when fan projects go this hard. Crono’s moves in Card Sagas Wars are awesome! Some of his specials summon other Chrono Trigger characters, which is such a cool touch. The spritework is gorgeous and the animation is seriously impressive.

Card Sagas Wars (M.U.G.E.N.)

running on a Retroid Pocket G2 through Winlator.

Game works. It actually runs and is totally playable through this, but it will still crash occasionally because this is a MUGEN game from 2002. The readme in the files even states that these crashes are inevitable.

It is, however, a very fun time! Easy to pick up and play if you’re not familiar with fighting games, and the card system makes it feel like a party game in the best way possible. Definitely not something you play for serious competition, but as a fan of a lot of the playable characters this is a good time.
