    Can’t seem to find an answer on this:
    Can you display the screen in small size with the FRLG games from the eShop?
    Similar to how you could toggle the “Display with small screen” option on the GBA app:


    I’m guessing you can’t

    Dont think so
    Its not running through the GBA app, but as a separate game
    It does look weird stretched out like that tbh

    Damn, if Pokemon isn’t dropping til next year what’s Nintendo’s big holiday title gonna be?

    The new bing bing wahoo

    Wait
    Switch 2 exclusive
    I'm cooked

    You really thought they were going to put it on switch 1 when it couldn't even run gen 9?

    5th gen are arguably the best games in the series

    So many early-only fans legit know nothing about gen 5 and it's crazy

    I've explained to my friend who quit playing 18 years ago (platinum) like 10 times now that gen 5 isn't 3-d and he somehow always forgets and says it's when the whole series "went to s***" though again he himself never went past gen 4.

    Dude has the loudest (and most objectively wrong) opinions for literally not playing pokemon for over the last 50% of his life

    He gets pretty mad when I f*** him up on stadium 1/2 tho so at least I got that going

    I don't play my Switch and haven't since Arceus so I didn't really think about it at all

    Gen 9 is a completely different game on switch 2 and there's been a large amount of hunting that it was already supposed to be a switch 2 game that got forced into switch 1 due to all the delays.

    Donkey Kong makes it worth it

    And Kirby air riders , and some of the switch 2 versions imo.

    But at the moment they're all in on more niche stuff so it makes a lot of sense why people are hesitant to get one at this point.

    If you aren't heavily into pokemon (or at least just gen 9), a big Kirby fan (air riders + star crossed world), or into more side-series stuff (donkey Kong, Metroid), or an obsessive maro kart fanatic, it makes a lot of sense to not really be into it yet

    Plus everything is so expensive that people are going to be more focused on rising grocery bills / electricity bills right now than dropping a premium price for a brand new console when they probably have a PC or switch 1 already

    I got mine because I only just got to launch my legit career, am doing well for myself, basically only played my switch lite (PC and PS4 collect dust), and am primarily a fan of more Nintendo franchises. I've never owned a new console prior to it being at least a year old in my whole life. I hadn't bought a console in 6 years

    I understand I'm the target audience and most aren't.

    No it can't. Switch 2 emulation doesn't exist yet (if ever, even. We have no idea because creating emulators can take years or just not be possible in some cases). Switch 1 emulation is not the same as firing up dolphin as well.

    I emulate heavy bro. I have like 5 devices and started on mame2003 when I was a child. I built an arcade cabinet out of wood and a windows 98 desktop.

    Emulating most the time is more about tinkering for me unless I'm doing nuzlocke/ironman type challenges. I guess I'll dock my retroid for some specific GameCube games to play with friends though

    It's just more hassle than it's worth for me as a primary way to play when I have a full time job and just want to click play or play online with other people. Getting air ride multiplayer running last year was such a b**** for example and I hate joining weird discords for it.

    Also I legit hate dealing with computers even if I'm "good" with them. I am so tired of modern windows and I want to keep my computer use to work as much as possible. Don't think I've used my gaming pc since helldiver's 2 or baulders gate 3 and I barely sunk that many hours into them

    Went through my old Pokemon cards and find two first editions ones.

    One of them was a holo.

    Then a bunch other holo cards.

    Some cards with that star-sign. I found out they are "rare"?

    Any good? Worth anything?

    Check on collectr because we aren't even able to search the app for you without you giving at least a picture but imma be real just get the app and search yourself

    Research grading if you actually want to go that route for any reasons do not just walk into a GameStop for example

    Thanks, man

    I had a couple of cards worth +200 dollars, if scanning is correct and if I filled in the right option

    I have only scanned a few cards that I thought was rare so far

    Portfolio currently at +800 dollars

    And have two cards that I scanned but couldnt found the right option for yet

    Damn bro and that's only loose!

    Look up the worth regarding the possible grades! Could be thousands

    I got the new team rocket Mewtwo and I think I'm actually going to get it graded. Never done it before but it's by far the most pricey card I ever pulled. I have a few between 100-200 though

    Yeah, I dont know if this scanning is really correct.

    It messed up some that are either holo or holo foil.

    And two cards that were holos I couldnt really find or put in. One holo Gastly and one holo Haunter.

    I think my rarest according to the scanning is one Suicune holo foil. Magikarp holo. Or Dark Vaporeon holo foil.

    It should say the set name on the card, with a number. Use the search bar to find your match

    I don't ever use the scan function

    I think I have done it correctly with this method.

    Some cards went down from what I had previously done.

    However, I have some holo cards that didnt say it was holo for the number of the card I have. Could it mean they are like "secret rare"?

    Recap, my Suicune holo foil card seems to be most valueable atm.

    At 116 dollars currently

    But could getting it graded make it be worth more?

    Depends on how you think it’d grade, can’t really give any advice without seeing pictures. But either way now is an amazing time to cash out, market is hot
