I googled it. It's a Nuby Boomerang 64, there is a trigger on each side underneath and a slot for the rumble/memory pack. So yeah, that might actually work better for some games at least.

Where is the Z trigger on that thing? That's the question.

I'll go plain old paracetamol which works for me most of the time. If that fails then ibuprofen would be my next choice.

Emulators have always existed alongside their consoles. That's to only way you get enough talent involved in a project like that. Difference is these days computers are fast enough to emulate the consoles much better and the architecture they use is a lot closer to what the PC is using anyway in a lot of cases, or at least a documented strain of ARM with a few custom tweaks.

The people working on the emulators are pioneers forging a path that takes a massive amount of time and effort. Trial and error, tweaking and ironing out the kinks can last years.

Didn't The Incredibles have a backstory like that where supes are basically illegal after they caused too much collateral damage?

I still play, I can see me running out of desire to play as much with the changes to the way new content is delivered.

Unless something changes soon for the better I can't see the game staying afloat for more than the next couple of years. Which is a real shame.

No cosmetic items should cost more than £10/$20 imho £50/$70 is a full game for crying out loud.

Forgive me if this is an overly simplistic view but if the ads with cookies are all served on Google's platform say then would all those ads have access to the Google cookie jar?

If they don't now then you can bet they are working on just that.

There are a lot of games that work. Still some that hold out, mainly due to their shitty anticheat software.

Great. So managing printers, network settings and quickly comparing settings from two places becomes a weird game of screenshots and guessing.

Remote support workers of the world collectively shake their fist in despair.

No way on this planet I will be able to explain the new UI to your average office worker.

The first generation DS could play GBA games.

The original Wii could play GameCube games.

The 3DS ran DS games.

The GBA ran GB and GBC games.

The WiiU could run most Wii games.

Nintendo has history making backwards compatibility a selling point of it help sell consoles.
