>IEM for multiplayer games

What's wrong with OLED?
>>
>>721244956
Why is Switch 2 on that list? Didn't it break sales records and have like 5 exclusives so far?
>>
>>721245024
Early adopters got fucked over. Now it's alright.

For monitors it's the price, realistically it's worth a 20% premium over a good IPS at most
For televisions it's the brightness, I have to draw my curtains whenever I use my OLED TV during the daytime, and at night it can very easily reflect lightbulbs.
>>
>>721244956
The only thing I bought on that list was the Vita and I spent $100 on it which was, and always will be, worth it.

Yeah. My 5 year old cx is still a banger, but I bought the first wave oled monitors and returned the lg monitor in a week.

Apparently they are good now and cheap to produce(and they have a life span of about 5 years so you'll buy a new one)

>and they have a life span of about 5 years
Say what you want about LCD, but every monitor I've ever had still works dating back to the 2000s. Obviously I don't daily drive them, but they can be useful in a pinch if you want to test the video output of some random device
>>
>>721244956
>PS Vita
Yeah ..
>Ultrawide monitor
Yeah.. I got one of the early ones, it was cheap tho. Had no issue going back to 16:9. Bought a more high end 21:9 a few years ago, returned it
>VR headset
Yeah, owned 3. Will still stand by it that the first few months/games you play are magical and well worth the price to at least experience once. Still keep one around for vr racing
>OLED monitor
Yeah returned it tho
>Switch 2
Yeah screen sux, but I'm sensitive to blur and you cant get more blurry then the switch 2. Ended up playing my backlog switch 1 games on my Swoled again
>"high end" mechanical keyboard
Own one of the most expensive wireless ones. I recommend it to no one, but I dont regret it. A fancy keyboard is like a fancy watch, you really dont need it, but if you have money to throw around, why not?

> 5 exclusives so far
Back in my day consoles had like 10-20 exclusives on launch day alone.
>>
>>721244956
I preordered Brink

>HOLY SHIT A CONTROLLER WITH A MOUSEPAD
>THIS SHIT IS SO AWESOME WITH CIV
>WOW THIS IS SO COOL TO USE A ROTARY WHEEL MENU IN AXIOM VERGE
and it was unplayable for literally everything else fuck that piece of shit
8bitdo controller meme too. Piece of shit stopped working after two weeks.

Logitech $20 controller for life. Never going back.

>>721244956
Is this a poorfag cope thread?
Sure smells like it.

>>721245447
>>721244956
How the fuck do you fall for the PS Vita? Back then everyone in those threads recommended getting a used one which cost like 50-80 bucks
>OLED
It's good and I like those screens but nobody ever said "it's a must", it's just better and more expensive
>"high end" mechanical keyboard
Too bad the times are over and you can't get the used keyboards from offices anymore because resellers bought them all up and charge a premium for them now too.
This isn't even a problem just with keyboards but retro consoles and any kind of card game. Everytime something gets a little hype, retards pretending to be investors buy up all of the stuff.
>>721245130
Maybe those exclusives aren't that good or justify getting one yet
Also there is the other shit surrounding the Switch 2, like the pricing, keycards and so on
>>
>>721246274
Easily the best controller for N64 emulation
Otherwise depends on the game, I never gave it a fair change for 2D games to be fair.
There are a lot of setups by other people, otherwise you have to set it up yourself
>>
>>721246274
I really wish I could have gotten one, I autistically cllect controlers but it was never available in my region
