How accurate is Ayn's shipping dashboard?

I'm trying to figure out if it's approximate or if they skipped over my sub-1k Pro Black order.
>>
>>11517415
Just email them about your order
>>
on my Steam Deck's desktop mode I tried to charge it and for a couple seconds I got a "discharging" on the status rather than charging. Anyone mind seeing if theirs does the same?

Already had to send this thing in for a battery RMA once and now I'm well out of the warranty period
>>
Is the Steam Deck still worth it or is there a better value for power handheld?
>>
>>11517418
Ally x is the best handheld x86. But steam deck is still good for value.

>>11517360
What are people coping about when china takes our data? I genuinely want to know how this affects me in the slightest
>>
>>11517418
On one hand, I'd really like to recommend it. It's emulation capabilites are wonderful and emudeck is an absolute joy to use...

On the other, I had to RMA one unit 4 times before Steam just gave me a refund and on my OLED I had the battery die (apparently, a somewhat common issue) and now I'm on >>11517417

There are a lot of documented issues that are somewhat common, and for 500 bucks a year long warranty is just not long enough for a hardware with so many potential issues. If you can get a cheap LED model for around 200 bucks it's not a bad gamble, but the 500 OLED, I'd say hold off on that one unless you're good at tinkering and soldering.

Man I just thought I could get like, a $400 repair for the screen and then stop using it as my main phone to keep it in better condition despite never dropping or even scratching the thing, ever. Wish I got photos/footage of as it was dying before going full black.
>>
>>11517441
Between those 3? the odin 2 hands down
>>
>>11517454
That is weird. Those screens tend to only have either the top or bottom half die when they break.

Me again from last thread >>11508574
I decided to stop being retarded and bundled the actual shader files that my setup uses in with the glslp files, so now it should just be as easy as unzipping this whole thing into one folder and loading them from there. No fuss no muss, no matter what system or operating system you're on, as long as you're using glsl shaders in Retroarch. They're just the standard ones that come with every Retroarch install, so if it prompts you to overwrite files you should just be able to skip it, because it means they're all where they need to be already. Hopefully solved this anon's problem >>11509191 sorry for the confusion bro.

https://files.catbox.moe/nkmf4q.zip

Also quickly slapped together some versions without the glow, for those who prefer it that way.
>>
>>11517461
Bottom died, upon closing and opening the phone again, the entire screen had bled out to every pixel.

And I fucking take good care of my shit, which is why I was able to use my previous Galaxy S9 as a backup.

And while I'm at it, shout out to this anon from a few threads ago for the cool Game Gear grid overlay >>11494974
It looks pretty slick. Already set it as my default and going to use this one going forward. Thank you, bro.
>>
>>11517465
Fuck downloading apps on a Galaxy S9 just to convert video for 4channel's shit webm specifications, that is what you get.
>>
>>11517462
I love how #1 looks, but think #2 looks the best. The colour bleed is neat in #3 but can make it look a little too similar to over-filtered modern pixel games like Octopath Traveller.
#4 and #5 just look like blurry fucking garbage.

Oh whoops, wrong version. Don't want to give anyone the impression that the grid filter is that dark (it is at 100%, but by default it's set at 70%)

RP4P for the stick placement alone.

None of them are really supposed to look "the best", it was all just my attempt to get an okay CRT filter with no performance hit on my 40XX and similar budget devices with entry-level hardware and low-res screens. I was only out to make #5 for myself, but went ahead and made a few others when I decided to share it here, to suit different tastes. To that end I feel #2 is actually the most needless, as I'm sure there are already CRT filters that lightweight anyway, but I figured why not? 4 and 5 are blurry because they incorporate a convergence filter for pixel blending. I do like the sharper look of the others, but a slight blur on a small handheld screen isn't that big a deal for the tradeoff, especially when you grew up used to running composite or even RF cables to $80 Chinksonic brand televisions from Rite-aid or whatever. But hey, that's what options are for if it's 2blurry4u

Me browsing this thread: oh shit did I slide into the timeline where iphones and gamesir stopped existing?

>>11517436
Great choices and a nice variety. Tell us how you like Sword of Mana. I bought it blind and was surprised it has the same story as Final Fantasy Adventure, a favorite. It bored me then, but I've never given it another shot.
>>
>>11517448
Good point. Also New Year is coming, which means big sales and shipping delays.
>>
>>11517569
Nta but SoM is so unnecessarily wordy which is what makes its story so forgettable outside of its main plot beats.
>>
>>11517579
Yeah, one of the few things I remember is that people talked too much. People talk a ton in Brownie Brown's Magical Starsign, as well.
>>
>>11517490
The picture you chose tells me you were sold on it by Russ.
That alone should be a deterrent until you find another source.
>>
>>11517595
I literally googled "Odin 2 Portal" and picked one of the gamecube colored ones that wasn't a stock image.
>>
>>11517595
>not trusting Russ implicitly and completely
What went wrong with you guys?

Am I lookin' good or is my setup based and crt-pilled? Probably looks like ass blown up but I swear it's nice on a small oled screen.

Designing a line of sticks for Retroid/Odin devices, any other styles I should include?
>>
>>11517823
Maybe mini variants?
Bottom right without the inner ring maybe.
>>
>>11517829
Mini? These are already roughly the same size as the stock sticks, about 14mm. If anything, I'm planning on a second set that's more high profile. As for bottom right without the inner ring, I tried that actually, then realized I'd basically just remade the stock sticks
>>
>>11517836
idk then, flat grippy dualshock 2 style?
>>
>>11517407
daily reminder I own the best device for handheld gaming on the planet and no amount of copium can change that

currently playan:
xenogears
umihara kawase
muramasa
>>
>>11517823
The FlyDigi Vader controllers have reeded edges like coins, but with wider peaks and valleys.

I'm also very partial to the Xbox Elite sticks that have a kind of micro-knurling. but you'd probably need a 0.2mm nozzle or SLA to get the detail.

>>11517878
>currently playan
And finishing none of them.
