🧿🪬🍄🌈🎮💻🚲🥓🎃💀🏴🛻🇺🇸<p>Been organizing my <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retroGaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retroGaming</span></a> collection in <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/launchbox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>launchbox</span></a> and despite never playing <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/basketball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>basketball</span></a> games at all, this is the fewest I can manage. Wild cause there weren't really any good ones untill the mid '90s and yet after that there were a dozen every year! I even threw out most of the portable systems!</p>
🧿🪬🍄🌈🎮💻🚲🥓🎃💀🏴🛻🇺🇸<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LaunchBox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaunchBox</span></a> lets you give games a 0.5-5.0 star rating and then collects everyone's ratings and averages them out for a "community score". </p><p>Sorting ROMs by their score is helpful for finding good games. </p><p>It also lets you see how many people have scored a game which is a kind of "popularity" score and useful for sorting too.</p><p>Games that aren't well rated are sometimes extra weird, or funky prototypes from japanese services long past.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retroGaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retroGaming</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/emulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>emulation</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/videoGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>videoGames</span></a></p>
🧿🪬🍄🌈🎮💻🚲🥓🎃💀🏴🛻🇺🇸<p>I have a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/miniPC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>miniPC</span></a> lying around and I decided to install <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> on it, so I am obligated to tell you about it. </p><p>It's an 11th gen quad core <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Intel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Intel</span></a> Core <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/i5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>i5</span></a> with 16GB of RAM, and an Intel <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Iris" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Iris</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/GPU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GPU</span></a>, so it should be good enough for most <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retrogaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retrogaming</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/emulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>emulation</span></a>. </p><p>First I put <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Batocera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Batocera</span></a> on it, but that's a little barebones and I couldn't find the low level settings, so I just installed <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ubuntu</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/RetroArch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RetroArch</span></a> instead. Hopefully I can find a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/emulator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>emulator</span></a> frontend like <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/launchbox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>launchbox</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/videoGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>videoGames</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gaming</span></a></p>
