Why not make a collection to talk, briefly, about the video games I appreciate? Perhaps, managing to shine the spotlight on some half-unknown gaming experience which however should deserve much more. And it cannot be excluded that in the future, finding inspiration, I could take and write long and in-depth articles on some of the games that I always praise briefly here, to start with.

In my new mission to integrate, in the form of a home retrogaming console, any computer that works with a well-established configuration with RetroArch, and that allows me to play by passing ROMs and save files between different devices… the Raspberry Pi, with installed the Linux distro RetroPie, popped out as the ideal piece of the puzzle.

Just the day before yesterday, a game jam ended, that is, an (online) video game development competition based on creating something using RPG Maker 95, a very old version of the series in question. game engines. ...It wasn't well publicized, it seems? Because searching on the web I can't find a shred of an announcement page or one that collects the jobs.

☣️ The unsolvable ugliness of the Nintendo Switch dock (Part I)
Caution
The content of this page has been entirely machine-translated into English, from Italiano. Therefore, it might contain any kind of errors.
Note: This article should have first explained the Switch dock issues, but then continued and ended with >total development of my alternative solution. The first part was quite long, however, and I'm afraid that it might eclipse the really important part, that of my dangerously original solution. So, in this article I only talk about my problems; what comes out later will be dedicated to my do-it-yourself.

⛏️ Minecraft
Caution
The content of this page has been entirely machine-translated into English, from Italiano. Therefore, it might contain any kind of errors.
I believe Minecraft can be defined as the modern game (for better or worse) that develops potentially infinite complexity from simple premises. In a good way, obviously: complexity impresses and rewards those who seek it, but the title remains playable for anyone.
At first it’s making “houses” that are 4x4 holes under the ground, but later it becomes creating titanic installations, purely aesthetic or even totally functional - let’s not forget that Minecraft, with its redstone, is Turing-complete.

https://youtu.be/2N1TJP1cxmo The best way to describe Mirror’s Edge is to say that it’s a game in constant motion. Literally standing on the edge of the mirror, the edges of the enormous glass of which the buildings of La Città are made, one runs and jumps without any brakes.

💣 Minesweeper
Caution
The content of this page has been entirely machine-translated into English, from Italiano. Therefore, it might contain any kind of errors.
In Minesweeper (in Italian officially “Minefield”) you have a game grid in which bombs have been randomly placed (by an algorithm). To win, you need to locate them all without exploding any of them.
The rules are simple, but the game easily reaches high levels of complexity and has an I-don’t-know-what that you can’t do without.

2048 is a simple puzzle game in which you have a grid of randomly generated numbered tiles that you can slide entirely in one of four directions. All numbers are powers of 2, and equal numbers that collide add to become their double.
If you reach 2048 by adding up the tiles, you win a game, which however can go on even further.

🎮 Ancient history of DSpacc

Almost two months ago, the DSpacc came to mind somewhat by chance; first as a concept, talking about it with people online, and then directly as the little object that I proudly own.
This thing of mine has seen dust, glory, war, and despair. This is exactly what I should have talked about today, what I did recently to remove some dust and thus bring my device back to glory.
