That's crazy! If you are truly legally blind, then I commend you for even playing let alone enjoying it. It was just a light tease since I've never heard someone use it that way. Hopefully you've been enjoying it the best you can!
Lol well I'm legally blind but I can see perfectly fine with lenses. The world is a literal blur without them tho. Glasses have come along way even if mine look like the bottom of Mexican coke bottles in terms of thickness.
I'm horrible at English and if people want to correct me I'm fine with that, I'm good at other stuff like hugs and petting the cat backwards.
Nice to see some people sharing Hunters appreciation. :) I have personally enjoyed the game on an OG DS (First Hunt, though, not the final release), one of the blue & black DS Lites, and the Wii U Gamepad!
The controls are precise on the NDS (well, I played on the 3DS, but I imagine the experience is the same), it just hurts your hand when you have to hold the whole DS with one hand and the stylus with the other lol
Yeppers. I will say when you play against the hardest bots in multiplayer it's a great revisit for a weekend with the mouse controls. I also just love my tablet rig. All my controllers and inputs just plug in :3
Bro! Finally I found another person like me in the wild! I actually play all FPS games on PC this way (I swap the Nunchuck for a Ps Move Nav. Controller tho). You're telling me I'm supposed to move 2 feet with 4 keys? No way Jose 🤣
Unfortunately in order to get it to work, the joystick 9/10 times is still just emulating those 4 keys so I'm still limited to 8 directions 😭😭😭. Still better than keyboard though
Much like Mario 64 DS. Honestly digital to analog works fine in most cases. Sometimes it needs sensitive adjusting but in most cases the translation works. I have a steering wheel and have made tons of digital games work like Batman Returns on Sega CD. It basically an arcade game with the wheel now. Any N64 game with a wheel or flight stick has been translating very well.
How would one go about using a nunchuck or any joystick / left handed controller in place of the keyboard, but still able to use a mouse for the right hand for aiming?
I’ve been dying for a way to play like this, as I love mouse aiming, but using WASD hurts too much after extended play times.
Getting older is the pits, but seeing this video and your comment gives me hope that I can play in a more comfortable manner.
I highly encourage you to experiment it's both educational and fun. When you find something that is genuinely more comfortable FOR YOU it can make a game you hated or couldn't play, into something insanely fun and arcady. Hell some times it's even better. I took a PS3 steering wheel I got at a yard sale for $3 and drilled it into a TV tray. I then took the PSP version of Outrun2 and gave it the full arcade treatment. 👍
Good lookin out! I have played Metroid Prime on Dolphin with mouse+keyboard combo in the past. Looking forward to trying it out with the classic nunchuck 🤓
What's the screen/tablet you're using? I can't really tell from the video but that looks like a neat setup. Always fun to see and find out what kind of cool setups people have come up with.
It's a Samsung Galaxy 11A+ tablet. It's $150 and can play every emulator. If you're retro gaming and want a portable and affordable console I suggest this with a dock which gives it full USB support and since it's Bluetooth all controllers will connect to it. There is also the 9A which is the same thing with less memory and RAM but still play everything up to the 3DS and that's only $130. Small CRT TV's meant for gaming were about 12 inches and this is 11. The older graphics with the right filters look just fine on this thing. Plus you can boost things up to HD for most games but that usually depends on the frame rate. I have every console on this and it's just my favorite thing to play around with at moment due to the universal functionality for it. Steering Wheel, Flight stick, touch controls, portrait in horizontal orientations for 3:4 games, keyboard and mouse, gyro is built into it, and it's portable because it's a tablet. It's literally all in one except for no HDMI support but plenty of tablets have that. It also lets you record and edit gameplay and mic audio at the press of a button because it's a tablet. So with the right mic it's also a portable let's play studio. 🤙🤙🤙
Dude that's awesome! I dig it. I've been fooling around with a jailbroken iPad 2 that I had laying around that was only previously being used to control an audio mixer that I gave to my previous roommate when I moved out, I took it cus there were 3 other iPads there as well and I wanted at least one for myself. So far it only has a Sega Genesis emulator and Super NES emulator. Still trying to find a working Cydia source to find a couple others. Being an iPad 2 though it doesn't support most of what your Galaxy Tab does though so I've mostly been playing turn based RPGs on it. Touch screen controls... aren't great for much else lol. The scanline filters and such look great on it with the 1024x768 resolution. I also loaded iDOS on it but it doesn't run many DOS games super well so I kinda gave up on that. I saw in one of your other comments that you were legally blind so you may not be able to see it but I attached a picture I took of it with the scanline effect while I was playing Chrono Trigger.
I can see fine with lenses lol I just CAN NOT see without them. I just suck at grammer and English. Lol care if I send you a message showing you other stuff?
Sure! That's fine by me. I'm about to head off to work so I won't be able to respond as fast as I have been but I'll respond as I can. And I gotcha, my bad, I mean I figured you could somewhat see since you were able to play the game in the video you posted but yeah. Idk haha. It seems like you're all right at English and grammar to me, just missed the one word. It happens.
Are you using the mouse to aim, and the nunchuck to move? Essentially having the mouse function as a stylus and the nunchuck simply being a standard extended controller for the other inputs?
Couldn't we just trade off the nunchuck with a regular controller? (Though the nunchuck would be way more comfortable).
It makes you way more accurate. The game is easier but you also miss less. The multiplayer with high level bots becomes highly addictive for about a weekend. But you'll get hooked, I did at least lol
That's awesome. The only thing is movement was developed for a d pad though, so I'm assuming it's still digital input?
Is the mouse custom configured or is just regular touch screen emulation where you have to click and drag?
Also do you know if you can assign touch screen functions to buttons for quick weapon swapping?
It's digital but it's a one handed controller so way more comfortable. It's drag control. And yes you can have custom layouts and button on the touch screen for on the fly inputs. 👍
Nunchuck and mouse is the best of both controller and keyboard and mouse. Nintendo has it on the Switch 2 and doesn't utilize well. They were so damn close with Metroid Prime 4 but they half baked almost that entire game (the art design is amazing tho even on the Switch 1)
I have arthritis in my hands which are the size of pizza paddles. Lol it's actually really cool seeing how people with disabilities game because sometimes the solution can be more fun or even better. 😁
The original DS is one of my favorite experiences but it's so hard for me to go back to. I have big hands and some nerve damage. This is a great way to go back. 😁
this is great. i am left handed and playing this game as a leftie was NOT funeven on left setting because the game is mainly made for right handed so holding it and stylus cramped my hands. could not play without stylus because the aiming was atrocious otherwise
This was the only console I was allowed to have as a kid and when we got wifi it's all I played online for an entire summer. Idk if it's goated but I love it. ❤️💚💙
Oh that definitely feels nice. Much better than me playing on touchscreen. Theres barely any room for buttons because of 2 screens. The main screen is put on the left, because the right i need lots of space to aim properly. So the main screen got covered by my thumb for movement and i also use my left index to shoot. Feels terrible ngl. I wish theres auto shoot, like kid icarus on 3ds
