@RetroGames First thought I had was no shaders? Probably not the right first impression. Heck, even Balatro uses them for the nostalgia/clean up the jaggy edges of pixels. But, I haven’t even downloaded it to see so maybe it does?
@RetroGames No good way to play DS games as they were meant to be played on a horizontal screen. Slap the joycons on the top and bottom rotate 90° and now you have a vertical system great for NDS and Schmups.

Even with the resolution change the computer wouldn’t have made that choice on interpolation. I live in a mountainous area and they don’t look at all similar to me.

You know, I wonder if that is why the Switch 2 is said to have magnetic joycons …
Re: Watching This 30-Year-Old Joypad Take An Ultrasonic Bath Is Strangely Satisfying

Re: FPGA PS1 Teased Ahead Of PlayStation's 30th Anniversary
Taki isn’t a marketing genius by any stretch. Good at hardware, bad at misleading people, more than likely unintentionally.
