4k..... 10 inch screen....weird flex but okay

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It’s actually 4x resolution on this screen. I have a 4K 55” on the wall in front but there was some lag and we unplugged it.

Sorry man, I was in a bad mood (quitting smoking) , just hanging shit on a random on the internet... I love video games because you can play however you want to play, as long as you're having fun bro... I hope you have an awesome day mate

Looks great but I'd plug the laptop into the TV, those games were made to be played on a big screen from the sofa, not gathered around a laptop.

An then there’s my Apple iDSphone

I have a foldable phone (Samsung Z Fold 3), which unironically works out perfectly for DS and 2DS games. The only thing missing is the 3D.

"Now that we've taken the picture for your Internet points dad, can I back to playing on the PlayStation now?"

Haha not really. He actually switched to Mario party. He’s also really into Paper Mario TTYD.

Mac is garbo but at least you found a good use for it.

why e-waste? I’m re-using things. Nothing is wasted. We are re-using controllers to play new games. The waste would be to buy each console. Instead I’m using my work computer to play. I gave my son my old computer and he’s using it now. Nothing is wasted.

Yo, that laptop looks like it might be suffocating? We just gonna ignore that? Lol

Why not connect to tv or a bigger monitor?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Delay. I have a 4K TV right above but somehow there is significant delay on it.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago

Does TV have game scene / picture mode? On mine that is more than just different colour settings, it cuts the delay significantly. Also ensure all motion smoothing / interstitial frame generation bullshit is disabled.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago

Interesting. Hopefully you find out the issue.

Switch games look and run better on PC too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Very true, Sword and Shield at 60fps is vastly superior to the 20-30 fps you get on Switch.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago

Not to mention that 60 FPS is at 4K.

Apple doesn't even make a 4k macbook....

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago

There’s a 4K tv right above. We actually connected the computer to it not long after the photo.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago

Things still look better at 4k displayed on a 1440p screen than they do at native 1440p. If you have the power excess, why not?
