Oh yeah, I didn't mean to make it sound like it was distro-speciffic, I just think that Bazzite was the primary platform target originally (but I might be wrong)

Nah, The Legend of Zelda is a Nintendo franchise, and Nintendo is well known for only releasing their games exclusively on their own consoles. There has been the very rare case of a Nintendo published game coming to PC, but they are never ones made by Nintendo themselves. For example, Daemon X Machina and Bravely Default II were originally Switch exclusives that later released on PC, but they weren't made by Nintendo, only published by them.

You can technically play this game fine on PC at 4K using a Nintendo Switch emulator program such as Yuzu or Ryujinx if you have a powerful enough PC, but it isn't official.

I didn't agree with it being a paid product either. And I might have been misunderstanding so don't take my word on this, but I think it was originally open source and free (at least in money, not sure about freedom) ~~for those running Bazzite~~ and primarily designed for Bazzite Linux and that they planned to keep supporting that version, so I feel like all that would do for the Steam Deck is incentivize people to install Bazzite Linux on it so that it would be free.

This is a Nintendo Switch game. I didn't buy my capture card to take screenshots, I got it to record my gameplay. I realised happened to realise I could get better screenshots than the built in screenshot button the Switch has, so have been taking screenshots using the capture card now.

The Nintendo Switch can do Full HD 1080p, but Tears of the Kingdom unfortunately only has a resolution of 900p since the console isn't all too powerful. So the base canvas of the image is 1080p while the actual resolution of the game is at 900p. Think of it like a 1080p screenshot of a 900p image.

Oops, accidentally spelt Odyssey as Odysee. My bad, too late now.

Yeah, figured that out recently from my own physical PC collection. This wasn't game assets, but I thought it was really awesome one day when I found a really early development test video of the Lemony Snickets game for PC. It was just a raw video file sitting on the disc in a folder. The video was an in-engine recreation of this scene and the characters had no voices or animations, placeholder models, and were just moving around the scene in a T-Pose and, it was so interesting and cool to personally bump into it because that was a childhood favourite movie of mine.

I can't find the video online, so when I get proper internet in a few days, I'll try to upload it.

Put the headset on full blast? Got it!

Oh cool. I didn't know the company was Australian, but I'm Australian and got this from a regional op-shop here (aka thrift store). You can tell it's Australian from the G rating on the bottom-right.

 

Picked up this funny goofy looking 1997 pet simulator. Has anyone here played it before?

Looks like the kind of obscure game you'd see people asking on r/tipofmyjoystick 😆

Some grump is going around downvoting all the posts.

 

Pretty crazy this came out in 2003 and this secret was only just found now.

 

It's finally here -- a small 4:3 handheld that packs a punch AND with a high-resolution AMOLED display. Let's discuss all the reasons why I love the Retroid Pocket Mini, some of its promising future updates, and why it may or may not be the right handheld for you.
