@npub1r9y…6xu0 Welcome to Controller Hunting 101: Six-buttons for Sega exclusively, four buttons for everything else. I recommend Logitech F310 for general purpose just 'cause cheap and surprisingly tanky in build quality.

Revived my PSP earlier with a new battery. Waiting on a adapter so I can stop using the Duo card.
At least I backed up everything just in case the card suddenly dies! Now to play some more RPGs.

@npub126q…cy9p My understanding is no. They aren't saying so, anyway. But the original programmer did revisit this or so they KEEP REPEATING.

With QuakeCon started, Doom I and II got updated. New episode: Legacy of Rust.
Currently digging through the folders to see if I can get everything showing up in GZDoom but some files are missing, apparently.
Episode itself is REALLY cool so far.

I try never to be negative but I'm far happier than I should be that Analogue's false scarcity tactics are finally starting to get dents. Don't support this company or any "Limited Run" companies.
Scarcity is not preservation.
