Thoughts on the Playdate?

Why do you dig through twitter just to post some nobodys opinion?

kek

Who the fuck are they expecting to make games for this? Do they even know majority of male are the demographics for this thing and not female kinds?

No wonder it will be overpriced as fuck.

They weren’t going to buy it anyway. Saying your not going to buy a product because a white straight guy made it is just stupid. Your not going to look up who makes your toilet paper are you?

probably because he thinks it's funny. why are you so offended by it?

And they all turned it down.

>crank electronics
God no, I've used enough crank flashlights in my life to know that it's such a stupid gimmick and I'd rather just bring batteries.

It's probably for self-recharge, so you never run out of battery.

>, I've used enough crank flashlights
That's the one thing for witch I see it being useful. What's the issue with it ? Better than the lamp dying on you.

Camping for the weekend? Not so much.

The only thing I like is the desing but only because it looks like a neat MP3 player, and fuck I would prefer this thing to be one.

It's going to be great. Imagine the shitposting from nodaters trying to cope with the fact that they missed out on the pre-orders and will never ever get to play any of the games. Boy are they going to tell us that they're bad and they don't really want them but I'll know that they know that it doesn't matter what they want, because even if they wanted to play the games, the literally can't.

Millenials should burn. No other generation has become this shit so quickly

After checking the official site, i think it's pretty neat. For starters the little crank looks stupidly satisfying, and the guy behind katamari is making a little game for it. I don't really get the general outrage. Also I like that it embraces the toy aspect of vidya.

The crank isn't even for recharging, it's a gimmick controller for the games.

>For starters the little crank looks stupidly satisfying
lmao

No, it's a control method. One game has you walk with it.

This is an insane product, made by crazy people.

It's not

It should cost like $30. Not the same price and in some cases more expensive than a 3ds. The pricing makes absolutely zero sense and they are shooting themselves in the foot before the race even starts. Its baffling.

I'm all for new control methods but what fucking good is a crank on a console with two buttons on a black and white screen.

Something something green energy and sustainability, buy our consumer product to fight climate change!

The crank is for games not for recharging the battery. That would actually be kind of cool at least.

It's alright as an emergency flashlight but they really don't last long at all. With how cheap, light, long lasting, and powerful LED flashlights are these days you might as well just have those scattered around with an extra set of batteries as your emergency flashlight. Not like LED lights drain the shit out of batteries like old flashlights did. I got a cheap-o 5 dollar LED flashlight that takes 3 AAA batteries and I use it rather often and I've only had to swap the batteries out once and I've had it like 3 years.

I guess if you really want to prep and have as many JUST IN CASE options as possible you might want one but these days you might as well just throw a dinky little LED flashlight and an extra set of batteries in a plastic bag and tossing it where ever. One in the car, couple scattered around at home, just where ever you can think.

I don't know what it should cost. I don't personally see myself buying the thing at 150 bucks, but I like the concept so far a lot. I'd also think that at that price the thing will have neat materials and feel and so on. It's obviously a very expensive toy, but with proper marketing I see it working.

I disagree. The demo so far looks like it makes good use of it. You could replace that kind of input with buttons or joystic, but the little crank is so much better for what it shows it does.

I can see this being somewhat financially successful for whatever company is actually making money off this. I'd imagine they don't have to sell a lot to break even. They're not selling these at a loss.

This is a tranny, right?

Might have been interested in something like this during the '80s, and it would've been appropriately priced for the type of games on it too. But these days? I couldn't even see getting this for my kids when I could give them a new 3DS bundle with some preinstalled games on it for a similar price. From what we've seen, like the time rewinding game that uses the crank, this looks like a waste of time, money, engineering, and marketing. Perfect for spoiled millenials that love lighting their wallets on fire.

Is the current migrant crisis not a real war?

We the citizens of first world countries are fighting for our culture, rights, and tax increase prevention from large, never ending swaths of poor, dark skinned people who come from corrupt failed states and politicians who are not acting in our best interests but their own, and our own countrymen who take their side.

A war on the battlefield would be much easier to handle than something like this.

This thing looks like shit. The b&w screen is just lazy to make making games easier. Full color would not change the price. The crank is a gimmick and and a form of planned obsolescence.

Its going to flop.

you can't even do that, the original gameboy not only has more buttons, but more colors. The playdate only has 2 colors, so it can't do the shading that the original gameboy can. Also, unless someone can map start/select to cranking motions, the device lacks a start and select, which for games like pokemon, is necessary.

I came her to make fun of onions and get this based and redpilled post, good shit.

I mean, couldn’t you theoretically map Start and Select to button combos? Like A+B together = Start or something? Not that anyone in their right mind would ever use this god damn thing as a homebrew machine

>I fought in the meme wars; I know what it's like

Except at Handball, apparently.

Can I have one?

would suck for any action game because they use things like run+jump

well something like that would have to be a game-by-game basis. Super mario land, for instance, pressing b and a would be a run input + a jump input.

So its by the faggots who fill bogus dmca claims

California makes a console

My phone emulates way better games with no crank and millions of colors without giving money to hipsterfaggots.

>This is the hipster microbrew of the console world, mixing in weird gaming flavors and unique controller ingredients that the Sony/Budweisers and Nintendo/Millers of the world can't. Playdate is aiming to be the console you buy more as a statement about your refined and eclectic gaming tastes and less as a workhorse that will be a central point in your gaming life. Fashionable indie darlings like Celeste or Into the Breach might be fine for the gaming masses, Playdate seems to say, but truly experimental gamers play with a crank on a low-res black-and-white screen.

Wouldn't a laser be more fun for that? I dunno. I'm not really a connoisseur of flashlights or anything. Just any time I'm at Lowe's or Harbor Freight I end up buying another flashlight. I'd try a few out and see which seem to be nicest but I'm at work. I only have four flashlights with me.

Well, the flashlight thing just kinda happened. The fairy jars were just a goofy little side project. A while back I got bored and decided to mess around with an arduino. It was fun and got me interested in some goofy DIY for fun projects. I like that kind of stuff. Anyway I hopped on youtube and stumbled across a channel called BigCliveDotCom and he's an electrician. I took his joule thief video and just stuffed it in a jar.

b) there's not that many games to begin with. a dozen released over a few months. no current plans for a season 2.
c) no actual specs available (dev team literally just says "real beefy") means it might not even be able to hold more than a couple games at a time. there doesn't seem to be a microSD slot or anything.

You know that game company that's been producing successful handheld video games for 20+ years that's poured hundreds of millions of dollars into research and development and has a proven track record with systems we can literally just steal ideas from and nobody will call us out because the ideas are, at this point, considered to be bare minimum standard for a portable console?

Lol maybe because I'm not one? I'm a sound engineer in the recording industry and use a number of DAWs, but Teenage Engineering's little calculator sized drum machine feels really good in hand is super fun to use. Can it do even 1% my software does? No. And I'm not going to bother picking up the others in the series, but I can't deny that they got something really right with it, it's a great toy. So I expect this will be the same. It won't replace your Switch or PC, it'll be a really interesting toy and I don't blame anyone for saying "that's not for me". Like if you're a srs producer only want to finger serious 100 pad samplers then yeah skip their 12 pad calculator sized toy sampler.

It really shouldn't be interpreted as a mass-market console contender. It's clearly not in anyway... The backlash here is a bit bizarre.

Granted I'm a bit confused as to how heavy the media coverage has been. -But, I suppose some very loved designers are involved and it's an oddity, so will get hits.

Call it whatever you want if "videogame game console" makes you feel like more of an adult, but a Switch is also a toy, so is a PS4, so is an Xbox. Sure, it is literally a video game console, but it is also a fun toy, those things are not mutually exclusive. I assure you that this thing, like all their other products, will feel more like a toy than a "console" or "drum machine", not in a bad way, but don't think it's a good replacement for a Switch or w/e you play games on, it's a good complement.

The Op-1 and POs are surprisingly intuitive and well thought out in terms of useability. OP-Z, admittedly less so.

Adore my Digitakt, don't get me wrong. -And I totally understand people thinking of TE's stuff as obnoxiously overpriced toys. They kind of are. But like the best toys, they're damn fun. Not always the most practical, but are a pleasure to have and use.

The crank should be for charging, not for play..

They make expensive, cheaply made shit with the same aesthetic, only a handful of products being worth it and nearly everything having QC/customer support issues. If they helped design more than the crank then it's probably going to have hardware issues somewhere.

You can usually find close enough substitutes to what they make for half the price. The only exception is their Pocket Operators (the calculator things) are about as cheap as anyone can get and aren't too bad, but they straddle the line between toy and gear.

Shit. Overpriced and you don't get your moneys worth at all. Could be fun to emulate.
I am trying to get the sdk and some other manuals from them to post here so we know the specs to see where than money is going.

lol, just shedding some light on what to expect since some people think it's going to compete with Switch, it's not going to at all and I wouldn't recommend anyone get one if they're looking for an alternative to a Switch or any other console. I had fun with their calculator drum machine, but it doesn't replace anything, it's just a fun toy and it's ok to have fun toys sometimes if they're interesting and unique. That's all.

boy i'm shocked

That avatar is incredibly effective at telling you everything you need to know about the person behind it.

nobody thinks its competing with the switch you dumb retard.
people call it what it is, a shitty san francisco faggot scam.

Their QC can be patchy, sure. They're not a very large company. Haven't personally had any issues with support though.

>but they straddle the line between toy and gear

Agreed. That's pretty much the point. Toys are fun.

Yeah my only experience is with one of the Pocket Operators so everything I'm saying is based on that. I expect this to be like the PO of videogames, a little expensive but ultimately unique and fun toy and not competitive with any other videogame console, just a cute experimental toy and that's fun for some people.

>2019
>black and white
>$150

Yeah no.

...So don't buy it?

It's a niche product with a limited audience. Not everything is for everyone.

The pocket operators feels far too gimmicky for me, but I've seen some fun stuff being done with them. Like a gig with an Octatrack wizard who invited people completely unfamiliar with synths up on stage and had them make whatever noises with them, turning them into halfway decent tunes with sampling fuckery in realtime.

>it's just at toy guys!
>150 dollars

if they are going after the onions market, how do they know if those people will be able to operate the device and the crank at the same time?

yes, amazing conclusion, retard.

It's a toy for people who aren't poor.

150 is nothing idiot. It's for stupid hipsters

>gameboy ripoff in 2019
>experimental
faggots

Is this going to be the Action 52 of this decade?

>muh stupid hipster boogeyman
>150 is nothing idiot.
Then why bring up the price retard?

What does Playdate-tan look like?

"A thread..."

I don't think there's a single more obnoxious phrase on the planet. You're making ten tweets in a row, don't treat that like a grandiose event.

I hope so, we’re due for another legendary blunder.

Last one was what? Ride to Hell?

Provide a counterpoint, friend.

She has a crank attached to her head

Bullyhunters

Like a hipster chick with downs syndrome.

An obnoxious hipster faggot, probably.

>A thread...
I don't get it. What's that supposed to mean?

That's weird because people can't stop comparing it to other
major consoles in this thread. If someone said "My Korg has 1500 voices and a backlight why would I waste my time with a 12 voice Pocket Operator?" then I would say what I said, they're not really competing.

>hipster boogieman
>It's being shilled as the microbrew of video game devices
I bring up price because it's black and white, tiny screen, gimmick of a control option are you stupid?

Not really comparable.
Very much doubt this will be in particularly high scale production and demand will dictate supply.

150 is nothing idiot.

True but you expect more the higher a price of something goes

It means you're going to reply to yourself on twitter several times to write a few paragraphs worth of text. Saying "a thread" is to encourage you to open the first tweet and scroll down the following tweets. It's generally done to give the tweets an inflated sense of importance, rather than for reading convenience. If you actually wanted to write a long tweet, you could either post a twitlonger or screencap text you wrote in another program.

150 is nothing so anything more than nothing is a bonus

its directly competing with any other chink handheld that plays indie shit, and this one is clearly not holding up at all.

True, I'm honored to support this

>You need women control in every space
Maybe if Yea Forums made fake attack on she as playdate fanboy, whole thing just colapse.

>"It fits in your pocket!"
>Has retarded crank thing sticking out to ensure it never fits smoothly into your pocket without getting caught on a hem or some keys or something.

Hipster shill.

Jesus Christ your fucking stupid. $150 is too much money for a shitty time waster that no one will ever pick up again after being nominally amused with it for the first 45 minutes. It has nothing to do with being poor, it has to do with wasting money on something that isn't even worth your time.

I can't help it, it's such a cool toy

150 is nothing idiot.

lmao this gayboy has lost his mind

YOUR fucking stupid. It's a shitty time waster that isn't even worth your time.

Oh. That's dumb.

That's cool.
I got a Tank007 flashlight some years ago, been wanting to upgrade.

Occasionally I forget that Yea Forums is populated almost entirely by children.

Ah, you're right I'm not going to bother with such a gay lil hipster toy

I beat it on my Dreamcast, anything's possible

send me $150 and I'll send you 12 ROMS worth your time instead of this pretentious hipster faggotry

Then this toy should be perfect for them.

Will it run Doom though?

>brainlet-sama proves he has no fucking idea what's being discussed

Check m8

Why would I do that when I could download those roms for free? Also learn what pretentious means faggot.

I'll never really understand how people can get so angry about how other people choose to spend their own money...

Horses for courses.

oh all of a sudden $150 is too much for you for the same amount of games with higher quality, go fuck yourself hipster retard

Pyrenees tend to slap your shit when they want attention. Your hand, arm, leg, just whatever is within reach. The community calls it "pyr paw"

Thanks doc

Your fucking stupid. $150 is too much money for a shitty gay lil toy that no one will ever pick up again after being nominally amused with it for the first 45 minutes. It has nothing to do with being poor, it has to do with wasting money on this pretentious hipster faggotry that isn't even worth your time.

I'm not paying for free roms. Take your own advice.

I'm glad your came to the right conclusion.
