Help me
Please Help
Me and my wife just bought Super Mario Deluxe for the switch. As we were playing we see this shell and can’t figure out what other Nintendo game has these shells when she played when she was a child. It’s bugging her and I can’t find anything. Can you guys help me find that game. It’s no new game.

What is the best gaming emulator for PC in 2024? [Emulation]
I'd like to play some retro games, like Mario, Nba street v2/v3, NBA ballers, Midnight Club dub edition, remix Halo, Grand theft auto, Star Wars, Tony Hawk, eg. Just all the cult classics pretty much!
Can you give the emulator and what computer specs I need to be compatible. I want the system to run well and not lag.

Budget Component Upscaler?
I'm currently looking for a way to get better output from my Wii than using the Wii U's vWii. I've heard that OSSC, Framemeister, and RetroTink are all excellent solutions, but they're all at least $200-300; are there any decent budget options for upscalers that I can look into? I already have component cables as opposed to composite, and right now I only have a converter to HDMI, not an upscaler. Thanks!

GamePad for different consoles at once
Hi!, I've just get myself a batocera ,,console" on HP t530. Works really nice. And now I'm looking for a proper gamepad. I've seen these 8bit gamepads but I've read that they will not work properly with PS3. Why do I mention it? I actually have a collection - Wii, Ps2, Ps3, Ps4, Batocera HPt530. And on my PS3 I'm using the cheapest possible ,,esperanza" gamepad. I'm looking for something nice, good quality, a gamepad that will if possible work fully proper with Batocera, Ps3 maybe even Ps4 at once. I need it to be fully compatible. Anyone can help me find a proper gamepad? Also are there any non-SONY gamepads that have sixaxis?

Hey guys I’m looking for a specific type of podcast that talks about retro and retroish gaming topics
but also the developers and development process basically an all around podcast that talks about everything to do with that game or console. [Question] But this maybe of topic but I’m also looking for a podcaster that talks about ps3,2/360, ×box 1 era topics as well. I would really appreciate the help I’m new to podcasts and I really love retro gaming as well as 7th gen and under topics and games as a whole
