  • I personally don’t recommend anyone get the Switch 2. The new price points are frankly ridiculous, and I’d hate to see that shit get justified by sales.

    Personally, I’d recommend looking into handheld PCs. I haven’t looked into them much myself due to lack of money, but they’re generally much more worth the cost from what I’ve heard.

    All that said, I missed that you were looking for something to play with your 7 year old child. Switch might be better, but any handheld would be… notably destructible, so that’s a factor to keep in mind.







  • I have a Moto Razr. When opened, it has the form factor of a standard phone, but when closed, it’s a perfectly square little block. It’s honestly the best form factor I’ve had in a phone. It’s also a 2023 model, so I’ve had it for about a year and a half at this point, and the screen is still in perfect condition. There is a small ripple in the screen at the fold, but it’s only visible when shining direct light on it. You have to be looking for it under specific conditions.










  • Also, I’m technically correct anyway: Microsoft owns GitHub, so it’d be the one acting on the copyright holder’s DMCA request.

    Despite what Take Two would like you to believe, reverse-engineering software isn’t illegal unless it’s for circumvention of security measures (oversimplified). Distributing copyrighted assets, on the other hand, is. Since the GitHub repo doesn’t include the game assets, the only legal DMCA takedown that could be made here is against the Play Store app, in which case, Google would be handling it.

    All that said, there doesn’t even seem to be a repo for this. There’s a different port done by someone else (fexed) last updated over two years ago, but this particular port seems to be closed source. Last update on Play Store was yesterday, but the last time any fork of the main repo was updated was last month.
