Ich habe gesehen, dass leider viele meiner Platinpunkte bald verfallen. In der Vergangenheit gab es viele Items, die gerne gekauft habe und hätte und wo es eher schwierig war schnell die Platin Coins zu sammeln, bevor die Belohnung nicht mehr verfügbar war. Und verlängern und weitersammeln kann man ja leider nicht :(

Das Belohnungsprogramm war mal einige Zeit offline bzw. es gab gar keine Updates. Jetzt kommen seltenst mal neue Artikel - ich glaube in anderen Ländern ist das wohl aktiver.

Weiẞ jemand etwas zu Updates, ob es z.B. Artikel zur Star Fox o.ä.geben wird?

Already owning a Switch - which controllers should I buy for Switch 2?

So I have a Switch and considering buying a Switch 2 (mainly now because of Starfox :)

I started on Switch with the official Gamecube-styled Smash Bros controllers, great for SSB or Mario Kart.

But I remember getting frustrated with it when playing things like the Tony Hawk 1+2 remake.

It worked wonders investing in a Pro controller. But the Switch 2 Pro controller is even more expensive!

I also considered buying that NSO N64 controller for Star Fox but as I don't plan on using NSO (as I have the original hardware) not sure if it is worth it. Got a 8bit do controller I bought for Analogue 3D though that might work for Switch 2?

So what are the best options. I didn't like playing with Joy cons for sure...

My hackchi hacked SNES mini has been working quite well for a long time. It is set up via the USB method.

I don't have many games on it (maybe 60, will check again), subfolders alphabetically. Save games worked until now, only maybe 6 active right now. I have set Snes9x 2010, not sure if for all games.

I have been on a Mario All Stars playthrough with SMB3 teying to beat every level.

Save game worked using the default by SNES mini, not the "cartridge saving". Yesterday I had quite progress but after returning to main menu to save it took time.

All the games were still there but no artwork (except Starfox 2 locked) and no saving possible. First C4 error when teying to save then C3 error.

I restarted the console. The previous game saves were there. I erased two save states from another game. Entering SMB3 save and saving worked. But afraid I'll be playing along again (those damn hard levels) and getting that issue again.

My questions:

1.) What causes this issue? I have plenty of space available on the USB? How many save states can I have? Is SMB3 a big game save? How can I avoid future issues without needing to reset the whole setup?

2.) Is an alternative to save via ingame saving (wgen available like with All Stars?)

3.) I know there is a retroarch menu with save state options (how can I open it as Start and select opens the ingame saving?) and does saving via Retroarch makes more sense than the default save states?
