In a strange amalgam episode, two weeks apart in 2022, Ken, Kit and Andy discussed the state of play in their toy collections. There's a break in the middle where the discussion shifts weeks and we talk about the "new" (at the time) game Turtles in Time. These original episodes were recorded just after 2022's Star Wars Celebration. 02:42 Andy's Bounty Hunter Cadre 11:00 Where are the toys? 18:37 (...

JJ and Andy do a “final” look at the Steam Deck and Emulation situation and get Suikoden II running. Really, it’s an excuse to wax nostalgic and start a journey evaluating one’s possessions.

JJ and Andy take on "modding" the Steam Deck again, this time in MUCH better visual quality. Though, that doesn't mean things go smoothly with our attempt to Add Emudeck onto the handheld. 00:00 All the Problems 09:00 Marvel's Midnight Suns 10:51 How does this display work? 15:19 Actual Emudeck Install 34:34 Is the Steam deck a Switch?

A fun-filled fiasco of friends finding out how to fiddle with frivolous settings menus. JJ and Andy, left idle, decide it would be "fun" to get emulation running on the Steam Deck. Hey. It actually was. Learn a few things with us, enjoy the mistakes.
