A list featuring the top 12 Atari Jaguar games, including games from the Jaguar CD attachment console.
Nintendo Switch 2 upgrades portability with a bigger screen, 1080p handheld play, and Wi-Fi 6. Here's why it still matters in 2025.
As someone who travels for work I still care about portable systems.
I have found using remote play in a hotel room is an excellent experience in a major city as I've got my console hard wired to a gigabit connection at home however it's not perfect if power trips the console tends to go to the repair section and can't be booted remotely so it's a annoying call to family to power it on for me.
A hotel out of town or regionally though that can cause havok for remote play as I'm always on 5g using it hotel wifi is never good enough for a solid remote play session.
But leaving a stable location and getting onto a plane or train and there's little to no chance of a good experience with remote play thats where something like the switch 2 will really shine for me personally long haul flights are exhausting and one of my most hated things the switch has been invaluable for me and I'll absolutely be upgrading
Nintendo has always done it the best, handheld is in their genes. I do wish their dock could be like an egpu though and it make it much more powerful, it's a bit harder for me to play portable now for some odd reason, love just sitting on the couch with a big screen and controller. And ofc always great to have the portable option and for me it's best for smaller games.
IMO, 540P upscaled in portable mode to a 1080P screen using DLSS on the tensor cores will likely extend battery life using a lower TDP and provide much better anti-aliasing and similar clarity compared to native 1080P with med/low AA at a higher TDP. It’s just a better way to use a mobile chipset. That’s not a flaw or weakness, it’s a key benefit for the portable design of the platform.
"NACON Revolution X Unlimited is a premium device with a premium price - stacked with features like an LCD screen and built with Hall Effect tech for longevity."
THIS IS HUGE. Do you know how long i've been waiting for an XBox style controller with rear paddles, a touch pad and gyro? This is enormous. I spent 400 dollars on a custom PS5 controller with rear paddles just so I could have that - but it broke and i've been devastated ever since. Even that controller didn't let me use keyboard macros as buttons (specifically the rear paddles) because it didnt have XBox Elite support in Steam (obviously). This is the greatest controller feature list of any controller on the market. Finally. Finally! Ordering one soon.
The Vader 4 has all of these features for half the price, plus a few more bells and whistles. Just an example as their are a TON of other brands making better stuff.
Few consoles have ever felt as good a home for RPGs as the PS1. But not every RPG could go on to have the insane success of Final Fantasy.
I have a few copies of Threads of Fate, Azure Dreams, Lunars and Koudelka. I believe I own all of these
Now this is the article I've been waiting for!
Hahaha I used to have a Jaguar! Alien vs predator was my fave
One of the few consoles I'm missing to complete my collection. This and the Panasonic 3Do.
AvP could certainly have benefited from a slightly higher frame rate. One game that was in development for the Jag CD and eventually graduated to the DC was initially called "Native". When released, the name was changed to Sturmwid.
Cybermorph as a top? Ouch.
Syndicate. Great port.
Doom. The Jaguar version was the best version of Doom visually/performance wise for a good amount of time.
Iron Soldier 2. Good follow up to the best-for-its-time console robot sim (let alone a console).
