New update coming for that soon!

I’m fully aware of the feature that has been promised for years and is supposed to land in 5.3. I’m still using Krita, just not solely.

Krita is my graphics app of choice these days.

So much of Krita is great and then there is the text tool which is still a heap of trash.

neutrons and electrons reportedly very upset as well.

I’d be upset as well: https://www.electronjs.org/

Yes it has Bluetooth support and, naturally, USB C.

Even regular ass USB keyboards work with Switch. Usually not for control input but typing search terms in the e-Shop, for example.

“We’ve updated this article to note that Nintendo has made similar disclaimers with its previous retro controllers, which have ended up working with other Switch games.”

They’re just not officially supporting it. I hope Reto will informally make Metroid Prime 4 work with this the same way as MP1. I don’t like twin stick controls and mouse controls are not feasible on the go.

Didn’t you hear? Just buy a switch 1 if you can’t afford or care for the switch 2.

You can also buy this controller and use it with PCs for an authentic emulation experience.

Oh, so it’s just ragebait and they’re reporting on nothing? I fell for it.

Just read the article for a change and you’d see that it was a later update to the article.

Edit: That’s also literally in the part I quoted.

“We’ve updated this article to note that Nintendo has made similar disclaimers with its previous retro controllers, which have ended up working with other Switch games.”

AMD is weirdly bad with their software side.

Damn I didn’t know the driver situation is that bad in Windows.

It’s better for RDNA GPUs but it’s not the fault of the customers that AMD was still putting Vega cores in relatively recent notebook APUs. Vega is fine for regular web browsing etc but a Vega GPU should easily be able to handle lower end games such as Quake I but just doesn’t.

People just keep buying Nvidia, so no need for them to change.

And why wouldn’t they? (they = average Windows gamer)

AMD decided that my Vega-based iGPU had enough driver updates. Reminder that Vega was kept in iGPUs for quite some time. Vulkan is completely broken under Windows, so I need to enable my NVidia dGPU for things like Doom I+II and Quake I.

It’s different under Linux where Radeon drivers are open source and developed by Valve and others.

Step 1: Don’t remove / completely change extension APIs every couple of years

Rosetta is full emulation. This sounds more like a hypervisor.

I imagine that AMD is more motivated to keep Microsoft/Sony happy than Nvidia is to keep Nintendo happy.

I don’t think it’s about making anyone happy, it’s about feasibility. From NVidia’s point of view, the first Switch was a throw-away project made up of already way outdated components. They literally just gave them the then currently in development NVidia Shield Tablet (meant for PC game streaming and Android apps) and let Nintendo stick the controllers to the side and port their 3DS operating system over. It was cobbled together to have a Wii U replacement relatively quickly.

Adding transistors for hardware-level backwards compatibility probably has more downsides on a portable console than benefits.

an almost 10 years old mario kart is still at full price is crazy

True but at least with physical media you can buy used.

hmm EU can move manufacturing to Ukraine.

There’s the slight inconvenience of Russian bombs, though

there is no trade.

But there is and what’s remaining in trade is exempt from Trump’s tariffs because of him being a Putin fanboy.

So my question is will we ever get a proper signal from Valve saying “Yup, it’s now fully compatible with the RoG Ally”.

I have doubts there will ever be such formal announcements for devices that don’t run SteamOS out of the box. With more OEMs deciding to ship SteamOS, for other devices will work better as a side effect.

don’t let yourself be scammed.

When entire industries are forming informal cartels, there is little individual consumers can do. That’s why antitrust authorities exist.

Trump Tariffs have nothing to do with the Switch 2 prices in Europe. Everybody incl. Nintendo is just hiking prices because they can.
