Thanks, this is helpful. Got any links to the Japanese review you read? Sounds way more useful than retrododo.com article.

Does anyone know what the AI actually does?

I’m assuming it’s based on image recognition like the Shinden gun. It’s a branch of AI different from the LLM systems that power things like ChatGPT.

Honestly, the fact that the article writer is shilling an AI product without actually explaining what the AI does is kinda making me doubt their journalistic integrity.

Ha ha hell yes, retro dodo is garbage, they are a site that posts whatever silly thoughts they happen to have about old video games. This kind of announcement about upcoming release is about the best they are good for, and you still have to read through the filler to see that they don’t know anything more than the Japanese Twitter post that actually announces the thing.

You think it won’t work? Because it is “AI”?

Shinden also works on image recognition, so this sounds fine, but I need to read more. Light gun games were some of my favorite in the Arcades, I’ll buy this or something like it.

it requires removing parts from an original Super Game Boy cartridge and attaching them to the new board.

I am in awe of the deep technical knowledge in the retro community. I just emulate things and am satisfied. Some take it to new heights, seemingly just because they can.

I remember playing around with this, never went deep with it but appreciate the project. I really wish more languages had alternative syntax options like this. I’ll give Hy another shot this weekend.

I don’t really remember Zoun, but happy to see the pros come back from military service. GLHF!

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Nuon. That’s cool as hell and retro as hell to put a Net Yaroze game on it, wow!

Raiden 2 was my most played shmup in the local arcade for me, the rest in thy series never drew me in the same way.

I like roguelike games, I’ll check this out when I can. What platforms does it run on?

Relaunch? I never listened to it’s old run, anyone have thoughts on it? Other Django podcasts to listen to?

I have a 4 Pro right now and like it a lot. A bigger screen is exactly what I wanted to see in the next version, so I’m happy with the announcement. I don’t plan to buy unless my 4 Pro breaks or something. Hope they keep to a good price.

I’m expecting it to be more powerful than RP4P.

I’m not a modder but I think it’s cool people can do this kind of stuff 🎉

I need to do a dive on this era of Sega arcade games, I was a Genesis kid.

I’ve got a RP4P and if anything I want a bigger screen device, not a mini. I would get a 35XX if I want something mini. For a powerful chip and android setup I would rather have a big screen.

Oh lord I somehow thought this is next week, it’s here already!!

I am still confused how to understand the results about programming language. Desired vs Admired? One means you use it, one means you want to?

From the comments, the poll is not well done.

Going to take me all week to watch the series on YouTube, but the games are always quality!
