18.09.2024Great clarification. I grew up in the era where the cost of a game exceed most peoples finances. (One or two games were all you had) I bought a retro game handheld to re live my childhood game console.

18.09.2024I love Retroachievements, I play with hardcore mode on not because I'm competitive in fact I hate competing in things but because it makes no difference to me as I try to play games the same way I did on the original hardware so I don't use savestates often. I'm participating in and almost finished the Gamecube launch event right now, I have 29 out of 30 points so 1 point away from a gold badge.

18.09.2024Please make a video how to sync 2 dualsense controllers with RA in Odin 2 pro 😅 I’m living a nightmare trying to make them work, one there’s is no problem, but when trying the second all goes to crap
@RealDownTownShit
18.09.202416:07 has been outdated for a while, currently there are separate leaderboards for softcore and hardcore achievements
@modestyblaise4167
18.09.2024I’ve been using Retro Achievements for a few years and recently making sure my PSP games match up for my Odin 2 which can be a bit fussy but all part of the fun. Is the PSP supported games list ongoing as it’s a bit small?
With Dolphin now gaining support on PC, do you think Android will get it? I’m guessing NetherSX2 will never be supported.
Thanks, Joey.

18.09.2024I have an Acer Chromebook laptop, is this capable of using Retroachievements' emulators or do I need a desktop computer?
