A Cartridge for a Lost Nintendo System | Things of Interest

New video! In the mid-90s, Nintendo made a Super Famicom devkit for use in schools. To this day, it has yet to be found, but here's how pieces of it have been saved and still floating around today...like this RAM cartridge I bought!

I've been experiencing this cute glitch where Lucanis sometimes gets stuck with his mouth slightly open and he looks like he's having a nice time.

He's info dumping about wyverns.

Rook is delighted but also can't focus on the task at hand.

Recently I learned that my computer does not render scenes very well

Even though I'm not very happy with how it turned out, I figured I might aswell share since it took me about two and a half days just to render the thing,

(it was supposed to be a simple looping animation, and I wanted to focus more on the background, but apparently, my computer doesn't handle that stuff well)

I am very tired right now, if it wasn't already obvious, lol

hello gamers is slay the princess good/playable if you're horrifically bad at most video games/will it require me to download any programs that will fry my computer. It looks like the type of thing I'd enjoy but I'm allergic to games with the exception of choose your own adventure stuff that doesn't require too much walking around aimlessly

JUST LITERALLY CRASHES ONCE IT'S IN WINDOWED MODE. WTF IS WRONG WITH MY LAPTOP AND WHY CAN'T I EVEN GET ANYTHING BETTER THAN THIS PIECE OF SHIT. Well, i mean I know why. BECAUSE I FUCKING HAVE NO ANY MONEY. this is one of the reasons why I don't start making my mod yet. because SwitchToolbox will prolly not even open here on this laptop. fucking hell. i hope i will finally raise enough money for better PC so I can give this laptop to my mom.

Hello any technologically inclined mutual. My computer mutual. What do I do if a game says I need to update my graphics drivers but Windows doesn’t offer any updates. Game opens and plays on Home Screen for a bit, then crashes and says the driver needs an update. worried I may have asked computer to bite off more than it can chew but I’m not enough of a computerhead for this

Lucky Seven is a very cool sword, both in lore, theming, and design

~~Massive Xenoblade 1 and 3 spoilers under the cut~~

Fiora's soul and will being stored within the Origin Metal used to craft Lucky Seven is so cool to me for so many reasons:

With Aionios being a creation of Origin under the influence of Moebius, it's entire existence is thus directly under the influence of whoever is in control of Origin itself. The Origin supercomputer is based upon Ontos's core and architecture (which we know from Future Redeemed), making Ontos the prime administrator of Origin. Thus Ontos, and anyone tied to that core, carries special privileges within Aionios and Origin. (ex. Shulk carried the Monado in XB1, and the Monado IS Ontos. Rex's life was tied to the Pneuma core, one part of the Trinity Processor which was also under the jurisdiction of Ontos, A just straight up IS Ontos, etc.)

So Fiora, who ALSO was a Monado wielder (via her being Meyneth's vessel and Meyneth too having a Monado of her own as one of the two gods of the Xenoblade 1 world), too has an innate connection to Ontos and the Trinity Processor. Which is why Lucky Seven is so strong within Aionios. She (as the sword) is able to completely override Moebius's control; allowing her (the sword) to shatter the Flame Clocks, obliterate Moebius, and cut through literally anything within Aionios. Lucky Seven, which is Fiora, is essentially part of Ontos and thus can rewrite the "code" of Aionios (yes, Aionios isn't a digital world but that's the easiest way to explain how Origin and Aionios works.) That is such a cool way to explain the extreme strength of the blade.

Furthermore, it means that Fiora is still carrying on Meyneth's wish to give the people of the world a choice of how to live their lives. In Xenoblade 1, Meyneth's whole thing was acting as opposition to Zanza. She wished for an ever changing world in which its inhabitants could live and choose for themselves, whereas Zanza wished for a stagnant world bound by fate. He wanted complete and utter control over those who lived "beneath him", as he saw it. Fiora came to embody these desires and values of Meyneth after Meyneth's death at Mechonis Core, and idk it's just really cool to me that her influence on both the Xenoblade 1 party (especially Fiora) and the Xenoblade universe as a whole is still as strong as ever within Aionios.

Moebius is the embodiment of the fear of change in an unstable world. And after seizing control of Origin, Z created a world in which nothing changes and it's inhabitants serve as fuel to keep Moebius alive. Nothing within Aionios progresses. It persists for eternity, those living within stuck in an endless cycle of bloodshed and hatred.

So to have the one thing capable of combatting Moebius being a weapon that is the physical manifestation of the willpower and motivation of Fiora is just really cool to me, especially given how important Fiora and Meyneth are to Xenoblade 1 and how their entire thing in that game was giving the people of the world the ability to choose for themselves and defy fate. Fiora, as Lucky Seven, is giving the people of Aionios a real second chance at life unshackled by Moebius and their control. Just as Meyneth gave Fiora a second chance at life after Fiora was killed at the beginning of Xenoblade 1.

The way the lore, function, and theming of Lucky Seven is all tied together is good shit.

It also being why the sword is called "Lucky Seven" is very funny. (Fiora is Xenoblade 1's seventh party member, and she IS the sword.)

It could also be why the sword looks so much like a Monado. The soul within is that of someone with a connection to the Monado/Ontos.

tbh I think the reason the *Stephanie Jim Sterling voice* Triple A Gaming Industry has such a struggle putting out good horror titles is bc good horror titles kinda benefit from being pretty short and relatively ugly, things that they really don't seem to want to do bc then they couldn't charge $70 for it

I just.... don't understand why dead space remake is so.... truly dead running for me. I can't play without stutters at all, and the moment i alt-tab they are gone, but only then. When I return to the game in fullscreen the stutters continue.....

This new laptop rules I feel so powerful

[jacob-blogs]

Ninty is doing the most, but where in the fuck are any of y'all finding computers or tablets capable of emulating games at 60fps in resolutions upwards of 4k for $400 or less?? No seriously, the conversation keeps steering towards "Emulation" and "Piracy" but even emulated OG Switch games are notorious computational resource hogs.

Like, okay I can understand maybe a hacked android app letting someone use their phone to run something like Mario Odyssey, but what about the rest of society?? What about folks that are tech illiterate that have no idea what a root folder is?? What about viruses that plague emulation websites that folks are likely to download??

I don't know, I think it's important to call out Nintendo for their shitty pricing and communication strategy. But it's possible that they plan on supporting the OG Switch for a few more years, and are introducing the Switch 2 as a PRO edition of the Switch.

Granted, the S2 is much pricier than the PS4 Pro was at launch. And the games and peripherals having a higher price tag... dare I call it the "HARDcore Gamer Tax?"
