Why not just do this actually legit with PS1 and Saturn games

"we chose the name because of..."

Nah they just wanted an excuse to not use UWU, since this was originally Universal Wine Launcher iirc

Pseudoregalia was fantastic

Also if an update gets completely borked while installing (i.e. you lost power), then it just boots into the version you were running previously thanks to the A/B update scheme. It's neat.

Original wipeout? Phantom HD Edition.

Wipeout Omega Collection for PS4 includes HD+Fury+2049 (all of the content from PS3 and Vita), and a lot of the PSP content had made its way into HD+Fury iirc.

For everything else, your options are emulator or tracks/ships ported over to BallisticNG. IMO you can just play BallisticNG as is though, it's an amazing game.

Either that, or they use specific tools that they can't or won't replace and which don't work on Linux. Usually it's creative or engineering software. There are usually good, Linux compatible, open source alternatives, but they're not the same as industry standard tools that they need to know how to use and be 100% compatible with. Windows or MacOS is your only safe bet there.

If you're a mere hobbyist and interested in learning new tools it's an entirely different answer. You can try out the windows versions of the alternative software first, then try switching to Linux down the line when see the greener grass.

Throw some silicone joystick protector rings on your sticks if you haven't. Makes the joystick almost completely silent even when I slam them against the shell, and as long as they're seated right and clean they'll still slide smoothly against the shell. Just make sure to run through the calibration script so you still have full joystick range after adding them

It's just regulation. No sweepstakes allowed without some "skill" involved

Unless their production costs are vastly cheaper for the old model, I give it maybe 6 months before they replace the 256 LCD sku with an OLED version. They probably know they wouldn't be able to keep up with releasing the entire lineup at once and want to get just a bit more use out of the existing lcd sku production line and supply chain (using up already purchased components and running out contracts) before they shutter it.

A vibrating buttplug. It also self replicates at the press of a button.

This. Do I want an OLED deck? Yes. Do I need one? Absolutely not. I like my deck enough and I can wait for Steam Deck 2.

Dangan (弾丸) literally just means bullet, and Danganronpa doesn't use the kanji in its logo. The stripe with the English/romaji subtitle is the same color as the big text in the Danganronpa logo but it's inverted here.

It's fine.

 

I've been playing japanese games on my steam deck lately and have discovered a useful workflow for looking things up if you've got an Android device on hand.

Install Google Lens. Install Aedict and add JMDict in it (JMDict is what jisho.org uses, so it's pretty good). When in Google Lens, you can use "Text" mode to take a picture then select and copy text. When you copy text, Android will helpfully pop up a Share dialog. Click the share logo, find Aedict in the list and bookmark it so it's always at the top by holding down on it and click "pin".

Google lens will smartly let you select entire words with a single tap and has a dedicated copy text button, so this workflow is a surprisingly fast way to open your dictionary when trying to read text from other devices, from physical media, or out in the wild. It's even pretty good at reading handwriting.
