we have to write these self-intros on a discussion board for my intro to game dev class and it's kinda funny to me that I wrote that I play PC games p much exclusively since we didn't really have consoles growing up, and someone replies to it saying they prefer not to play PC because they like keeping work and pleasure separate

like do you only use your computer for work??? I mean I guess maybe some people do and watch stuff on TVs or their phones and use social media exclusively on their phones (or maybe social media doesn't count as pleasure, lmao) but that's SUCH a wild concept to me.

Slowly getting the video game collection in order…

05/17/23: It's that day again! Wednesday. Here's what I bought. I found gaming accessories! Two ps2 red octane guitar hero guitars and two 360 games paid $10 for everything. I got two NES plugs and RF cable for $6.00. For $13, it was more gaming accessories; an Xbox 360 AV cable and plug, another NES rf cable, a generic snes controeller, a dvd, and a Resident Evil displate wall art.

I also found plenty of discs too. Three Xbox 360 games and 1917 bluray movie. $7.00 for all of them. I paid a bit more for these other three. Epic Mickey, Assassin's creed dvd and a horror bluray. But Elizabeth Olsen is on the cover so I'm intrigued. $10 for the three. I paid a whole lot less for some DC superfriends dvds, another dvd and a bluray. I got all of them for $7.00. And inside one, I added the cover to a 3ds Batman game. The case was broken and most likely be thrown away, but I put it in a dvd case. And for $9.00, I found more media. Two more horror dvds, still unopened, a ps4, 360 and GameCube game. An empty case for Smash Bros and a DS screen protector. It was a fun little trip.

The gamecube had so many accessories that you could turn it into a battery powered brick shithouse with a SCREEN ATTACHMENT and SO MUCH MORE and you could play gameboy games. You love the cube and the cube has seen the world's most beloved games be played on it.

‼️ATTENTION ‼️

As you all know I have an oc named candy,she is apart of the Object offset group. She has never been apart of any other fandom. She is from O.O.

I have recently seen a show called twilight orchards and I have seen another hard candy type character with spiked edges and similar accessories.

Now, to the thing I want to talk about.

PLEASE DO NOT COMPARE HARD CANDY TO CANDY!!!!!!!

they are from completely different shows

And if you’re asking “but why does candy look so similar to Hard Candy???”

Well idk?? I don’t think the creator copied or could have copied but for a fact I do know candy was out before twilight orchard came out as a whole

So the conclusion is: pls don’t compare them!!! They are not in any way in the same franchise!!! They have somehow came to be similar characters and if any of you come and accuse me AND GAMECUBE of copying you will be blocked??? Read this first before you start making accusations about copying

‼️‼️PLEASE REPOST IT HELPS ME OUT ALOT WITH FUTURE ACCUSATIONS‼️‼️

Light's recommended emulators: macOS standalone

Well, I've had a Mac since around November 2023 and it's high time I wrote this.

If you're looking for my previous posts: [Windows standalone] [RetroArch]

Preamble

Full disclaimer: I am writing this running a M2 MacBook Air on macOS Sonoma 14.2.1. Your mileage may vary on other CPUs or older versions of macOS. Some of these will, if you're using Apple silicon, require Rosetta 2 if not already active.

I'll be using a significant amount of color coding throughout this little primer. Blue: Notable information Green: This is a good thing Orange: Go with caution Red: Warning!

You should generally always check if the emulator you are using supports Metal as a graphics backend. macOS doesn't support Vulkan, but some may try to use the MoltenVK translation layer, which doesn't always have Metal equivalents. Additionally, OpenGL on macOS is forever stuck at the outdated version 4.1, and may someday be removed entirely. For this list of recommendations, I will denote which ones support Metal and which use MoltenVK or OpenGL.

As before, if you need BIOS files (or just want a more comprehensive information source than a Random Guy™ on Tumblr), EmuGen is the place to go.

Most systems

OpenEmu is an excellent Mac-exclusive multi-core emulator (much like RetroArch), whose cores use code based on other open-source emulators. It can emulate everything up to the fifth generation of consoles (PlayStation, N64, Saturn), but standalones will be required for anything past that. I strongly recommend OpenEmu based on personal experience, especially if you're not a fan of RetroArch's clunky UI. * OpenEmu's graphics backend is unknown at this time.

ares is another multi-core emulator that might do you just fine. Its cores are quite good, particularly its SNES core as that was derived from bsnes (when Near was still running the ares project). Others aren't quite as good or are outshined by standalone emulators. * ares uses OpenGL on Mac.

Remember that you'll need BIOS files for the FDS, Sega CD, and Sega 32X.

Standalone emulators

Nintendo

NES: SwiftNES is a cycle accurate NES emulator built in SwiftUI. The advantage of this is that it will run natively on Apple silicon. It is a bit resource hungry (dev admitted they made some design decisions ever), but it will emulate nearly everything about the NES--although it is not at the full NES library yet in terms of compatibility. I'd just use ares or OpenEmu for the time being. * SwiftNES uses Metal.

SNES: bsnes is available on Mac. If you're using Apple silicon or the last Intel Macs made, it'll run well. Recommend the nightly builds. * bsnes uses OpenGL on Mac.

Nintendo 64: Mupen64Plus is available for Mac. As with its Windows version, it's command-line based, and any plugins written for Zilmar's spec won't work with it. Recommend using a frontend. * Mupen64Plus uses OpenGL on Mac.

GameCube & Wii: Dolphin again remains your best option here, but it's as legendary on Mac as it is literally anywhere else. It includes a stripped-down version of mGBA to emulate GameCube/GBA connectivity for those games that support it, and can connect to a real Wiimote + accessories via Bluetooth. GameCube specifically has a version of this core in OpenEmu, but I recommend you use the standalone version of Dolphin since that is more frequently updated, as I am currently aware. * Dolphin supports Metal as a backend.

Wii U: Cemu has a macOS version in its experimental releases. I haven't messed with it much, so not currently sure how well it runs on Apple silicon (will test further later). * Cemu uses MoltenVK on Mac.

Nintendo Switch: Ryujinx has a Mac version. As the Switch is not perfectly emulated yet, don't expect things to run 100% perfectly--glitches will happen. Many commercial games are fully playable though. You will have to supply any needed keys or system files yourself. * Ryujinx uses MoltenVK on Mac.

Game Boy line: Use mGBA, VBA-M, or SkyEmu. SkyEmu and mGBA can emulate real-time clock features (gen 3 Pokemon games) and Boktai's solar sensor, but not the e-Reader. VBA-M can emulate the e-Reader alone but cannot link it to other GBA games. They'll all emulate the DMG and GBC. * mGBA and VBA-M use OpenGL on Mac. * SkyEmu's status is unknown at this time.

Nintendo DS: Use either melonDS or DeSmuME. BIOS files aren't required, but are heavily recommended. melonDS can emulate DSi features DeSmuME refuses to. Creative differences, you know. * melonDS and DeSmuME use OpenGL on Mac.

Nintendo 3DS: Citra, your only option, has a Mac version. * Citra uses MoltenVK on Mac.

Sony

PlayStation: DuckStation is your best bet here. If you have ever used Dolphin before, this will feel very familiar. You shouldn't need to muck about with settings too much except in very specific cases. You'll need BIOS files. * DuckStation supports Metal as a backend.

PlayStation 2: PCSX2 is available for macOS. You'll need BIOS files, but it works about as well as it does on Windows. Recommend you use the nightly builds. * PCSX2 supports Metal as a backend.

PlayStation 3: RPCS3 has a Mac version too. You'll need official firmware libraries to run it. Since PS3 emulation is quite resource hungry, I'd recommend you run it on at least a fairly recent, decently spec'd Mac, like a MBP or a Mac mini/Studio. MBAs are fanless and might heat up a bit. * RPCS3 uses MoltenVK on Mac.

PlayStation Portable: PPSSPP is your only real option, but it's a good'un. Make sure you get the system fonts installed, or else text is gonna look weird (MHFU, anyone?) * PPSSPP can use either OpenGL or MoltenVK on Mac.

PlayStation Vita: Vita3K, your only option, has a Mac version. Note that this platform isn't perfectly emulated yet, your mileage may vary. * Vita3K uses MoltenVK on Mac.

SEGA

All systems prior to Saturn: Your only decent options for most Sega systems are either ares or OpenEmu. BIOS files are required for 32X and Sega CD emulation.

Sega Saturn: Mednafen, in my opinion, is the king of Saturn emulation. You may also see it referred to as Beetle. As with its Windows incarnation, it is command-line based, and it is very picky about what BIOS files to use. Get them from EmuGen and they will be properly named. Bear in mind that there aren't any Mednafen frontends available for macOS. Use OpenEmu or RetroArch with Mednafen as a core if that's an issue for you. Mednafen will require a CUE sheet to know where the music data for a game is. * Mednafen uses OpenGL on Mac.

Sega Dreamcast: Flycast is your only option here, but it seems to be alright. BIOS files aren't required for Dreamcast alone, but are recommended. They are required for NAOMI/AtomisWave emulation--use the MAME ROMs for those. * Flycast uses either OpenGL or MoltenVK on Mac.

Microsoft

Xbox: You can give xemu a shot. Some setup required. * xemu uses OpenGL on Mac.

Xbox 360: There's no emulators for this running natively on macOS. You'll have to use Xenia on a Windows machine.

Other systems

ares can emulate the Neo Geo AES/CD.

ares, OpenEmu, and Mednafen can emulate the Neo Geo Pocket.

ares, OpenEmu, and Mednafen can emulate the WonderSwan/Color.

ares, OpenEmu, and Clock Signal can emulate various first and second generation consoles.

Same CDi and MAME can bomb Dodongos emulate the Philips CD-i.

Phoenix and MAME can emulate the 3DO. 4DO is only available outside of Windows as a libretro core.

MAME can emulate most arcade hardware. Believed to use OpenGL.

Old/obscure PCs

Clock Signal can emulate various old OSes, such as those of the Apple I/II/III and the MSX/MSX2, among others. Uses Metal.

TRS80GP can emulate the Tandy TRS-80. Graphics backend unknown.

VirtualC64 can emulate the Commodore 64. Uses Metal.

UTM is a virtual machine app based on QEMU, made specifically for Mac. Useful for running obscure games and software since it can also run classic Mac OS. It's free if you get it from their site (Mac App Store version is paid). Uses Metal.

86Box emulates old x86 CPUs primarily to run MS-DOS. There is also the Staging or X forks of DOSBox. Uses OpenGL.

Running PC games on Apple silicon

Most games are developed with x86-64 architecture in mind or simply never get native macOS versions. Additionally, Apple completely dropped all support for 32-bit apps as of macOS Catalina.

And while this isn't usually an issue (most Mac users, myself included, don't really buy a Mac for gaming), if you want to run a Windows-only game on your M series Mac, use Whisky.

No, I'm not telling you to take shots (unless you want to)--Whisky is a modernized wrapper for Wine built in SwiftUI that makes it easy to create and manage bottles, install and run PC games with almost no issue, all with no technical knowledge required.

The GitHub page also lists any edge cases that may impact certain games. As it states, Whisky is designed purely for Apple silicon running at least macOS Sonoma. If you are running an Intel Mac, just install Windows via Boot Camp.

Platforms not currently emulated

THERE ARE NO EMULATORS FOR THE FOLLOWING PLATFORMS THAT WILL RUN COMMERCIAL GAMES/SOFTWARE. ANY YOUTUBERS CLAIMING OTHERWISE ARE SCAMS!

iOS/iPadOS (Some iPad apps can be run in macOS if you are running Apple silicon, at least macOS Big Sur, and their devs have allowed for it in the App Store)

PlayStation 4 (some are in development but can't run games in a playable state yet)

PlayStation 5

Xbox One

Xbox Series S/X

Compact, practical and elegant –  ways you could describe a Gamecube console. It’s been 20 years since the world was introduced, yet it remains one of the most underrated gaming devices. Introduced in 2001, Gamecube was the sixth-generation home console from Nintendo. What made this system stand out from its competitors and predecessors was the design. 

[doubleddenden]

I watched a bunch of videos about gaming accessories for older consoles and honestly I miss that era of gadgetry. I really do.

The Game Cube had this screen that clicked into the handle, and it also had this huge battery pack that could fit on the bottom if you for some reason wanted to make a cube your portable gaming console. There was also the Gameboy Player that attached to the bottom ports that, with a start up disc, would basically turn your gamecube into a gba- I had one of these bit lost the disc.

From my own memory, i remember tons of doodads for Gameboys and gbas. The most I had was a gba sp that had a screen magnifier and a chunky thingy that would let you attach 3 games at once with a switch to swap between the cartridges. And let's not forget the eReader.

I know things are more convenient for players now but like. Look at this

That is a gen-u-wine doohickey. This is the shit that scared boomers when they made parodies of it in cartoons. I love it! As a kid something as simple as this

Which was basically a better grip and light for the gba (no clue what the bottom part is) while also giving the screen a lid

Even something as simple as that just felt cool af.

It's the same reason I miss flip phones like the razr or mp3 players you wear around your neck. The gadgetry of it all was half the appeal for me. It was about as close to having a scifi device as you could.

Like yeah okay your smart phone can do all of these things these days and takes up less space in the process. But is it as cool looking? No. No it is not.

Wonderful Things That May or May Not Be Wonderful!!! The Nintendo GameCube. Nintendo’s fourth major home console released to the masses in 2001 to…well, middling reception at best. Sadly, it struggled compared to its competitors, Microsoft and Sony, who were also packing DVD support, online capabilities and more “mature” and plentiful offerings. Plus, this was the second generation where Nintendo had a rocky relationship with many third party developers but let that not distract from the console’s many good points. One of the greatest controllers of all time, a wireless variant that seems to have an almost eternal battery life, an accessory that allowed people to play GameBoy and GBA games on the big screen, and a slew of great games. Many refinements of past success, some still unsurpassed today like F-Zero GX and Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. Many experiments that breathed new life to their franchises and sometimes entire genres like Metroid Prime & Resident Evil 4. A few new IPs like Pikmin & Viewtful Joe thrown in for good measure. And that’s just the tip of the six-sided polyhedron. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Super Monkey Ball 2, Luigi’s Mansion, Mario Kart: Double Dash, Super Smash Bros Melee, MARIO GOLF: TOADSTOOL TOUR!!! Oh so many great games! Without a doubt in my mind, the GameCube, for its time and time hereafter is most definitely #wonderful. Plus, it’s cuboid. CUBOID!!!

Norma and gisu, 4

4 of my favorite headcanons

Norma

She (and Lizzie by extension) is from the Midwestern United States, either Missouri or Illinois

Norma tends to accidentally stay up horrendously late reading bad romantic novels (guilty pleasure)

Attended Whispering Rock with Lizzie and met Gisu and Morris there.

A closet manga enjoyer, knowledge only Lizzie is privy to.

Gisu

Electrokinetic, as well as Technopathic (like Sari Sumdac from TFA)

Loves Daft Punk, her favorite song is a tie between Crescendols or Digital Love (makes her think of Dion)

Her dad taught her how to skateboard, the levitation was all her.

Has a GameCube and a GameBoy Advance SP, and both respective consoles major accessories. (Currently trying to get Raz into Mario & Luigi SuperStar Saga)

Thank you!
