It’s like Christmas at Jackie Chan’s house!
I think the most fun I’ve ever had with Gex is watching Dunkey’s videos making fun of it lol

It’s a fun game with some nice visuals but for whatever reason I lose interest fairly quickly. Like it’s a nice little Saturday afternoon game - I’ll have some fun with it and then move on to the next thing. Worth the $5 or so it goes on sale for quite frequently
If you’re feeling confident to open it up you could try loosening the screws a little that hold the board to the shell on the Dpad side too. I’ve had to open mine quite a bit to get it right lol
So I had this problem on my modded GBA, my solution was to ever so slightly loosen the screws on the dpad side of the shell. Turned out I was over tightening them
I didn’t know they artificially ramped up the difficulty! That game had a reputation when we were kids! Thanks for sharing
I mean I suck at the game and play on the lowest difficulty, I just think the story is awesome. I’m the wrong person to ask lol
I just bought Balatro on Fanatical which came with a free game voucher so I picked up Grip: Combat Racing asking with it. Both really fun games.
Tempted to get FF7 remake but I need to put in more time with a Baldur’s gate 3 before buying another big game
Yup you nailed it, think classic top down Zelda but with more fast paced bump combat/hack n slash combat depending on which game you’re playing, and less puzzles. Don’t be ashamed to use a walkthrough for Ys 1 and 2 as they are originally made in the late 80s/early 90s and have some obscure elements to them (find a boss before getting x item and you will get one shotted/ won’t be able to damage him, etc)
Check out the Ys series on PSP and Vita, they are some of the best games I’ve played through on my Vita. Digitalemelas.com has a lot of really good info on it.
Also obligatory Persona 4 Golden
Yeah he’s one of my favorites, I think he had a pretty rough year last year and you could see it in his content but it seems like things have been better for him lately - his Japan videos are really cool.
The Retro Future made a hilarious parody of those videos, I think he was pretty fed up with them
Steam but mainly because I have a steam deck so ease of use.
Loop Hero
Hades
Persona 4 or 5
I hated BOTW but love TOTK. I think the expanded world, new mechanics, and story make it really fun.
Links Awakening (GB) is my comfort food though, I’ve always considered top-down Zelda games to be the best ones. Idk why but the lack of a jump button in older 3D Zeldas always screws me up.
If durability is a concern with the switch I’d definitely recommend you play docked with a pro controller or 8bitdo controller as your joycons will start to drift - happened to me about 1.5 to 2 years into owning mine.
I haven’t owned a PlayStation since PS3 but it sounds like PS5 is a solid choice for you
Lately it’s been Persona 4 Golden on the Vita and Zelda ToTK.
Zelda because you can change your play style easily, sometimes I just want to build stuff, other times I want to explore the map, fight monsters, or do side quests. Sometimes I’ll sit there and spend a bunch of time preparing meals for a future play sessions.
Persona 4 I keep coming back to for the story and overall experience - music, voice acting, and even just navigating menus is so stylistic and top notch. I started my playthrough in 2019 though and am barely picking it back up.
On days I have more energy I’ve been playing Freedom Planet 2 for some action platforming as well.
Just want to drop this excellent resource here on everything Ys: https://www.digitalemelas.com
Ys 8 is a great entry point which got me hooked on the series. Each game is self-contained, however Ys 9 does reference previous games more as an easter egg/fan service than actually affecting enjoyment of the story.
Same, I’ve been dabbling in these handhelds for about a year or so now and I always tend to go right back to the Vita, it’s such a solid device.
I run AmberELEC on my 351V and have a Miyoo Mini+,I just really like how OnionOS boots you straight to your game and I use the game switcher a lot on the MM+. AmberELEC is good for tinkering but I guess I just like the simplicity of Onion OS for quick pick up and play sessions.
Pretty glad I skipped the current gen consoles - my last one was an Xbox one S. Still have it around to play DVDs and blu ray lol. Steam deck has been the best gaming purchase and I don’t see myself going back.
