SmileBASIC 3ds on Samsung Note 10+ with Citra NDS emulator - works with S PEN!


Nintendo Switch with Neon Blue and Neon Red Joy‑Con - HAC-001(-01)

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I love playing around with SmileBASIC 4 (Nintendo eShop). It's a great software to learn to code on the go. It's available for the Nintendo Switch. You can dock your Switch like a desktop computer and code away. The good thing is that it has mouse & keyboard support.

I didn't really know that there was a Smilebasic NDS (Nintendo eShop) version until much later. I think because it's only released in Japan and Europe or Australia. Although I already have a Nintendo Switch or rather Switch lite version. Sometimes, I felt like it'll be cool if I can play it on my computer.

Yesterday, I decided to look into my collections of NDS Roms to see if I actually downloaded the software before. Nope. As usual, Google is your friend. So, I did a quick search and actually found a website that has the Smilebasic for NDS.

I thought the rom will automatically work with Retroarch. Apparently, you need to download the Citra NDS emulator. You also need to decrypt the software before able to play it. I'm not sure if I can share it, that's why I'm not linking directly. You can easily find more information via Google search.

I tried it out on my computer and was really excited to play an NDS version of smilebasic. The NDS version is actually a little different than the latest SmileBASIC 4. I've noticed it when I was searching around to learn how to code on my Switch lite.

It's a little funny to me that I learned to code on SmileBASIC 4 before on the NDS version. Which is more updated. But, in spite of that, I still managed to get used to the latter version. That's when I thought, wouldn't it be cool if I can play it on the go on my Samsung Note plus?

I did a quick search on the Google play store and found an Android version of the Citra NDS emulator. Download it, find my smilebasic 3ds file on my phone and load it. The software load pretty quickly without any problem. You can imagine how ecstatic I was that it actually works.

I was already wondering if I can use my Note 10+ S Pen with the smilebasic software. It'll be just like playing on my 3DS. If you're thinking of course it'll work, not really. There are some or mostly retro NDS games that don't work with an S Pen. I've tried it. Although, now I'll want to test it again.

Well, I spend the night playing with the smilebasic 3ds and also checking out what the Citra NDS emulator features are. I think it's still in beta mode. You can view the smilebasic horizontally or vertically. You can hide the on-screen controller inlay, resize it or change the layout. 

One thing though, unlike SmileBASIC4, you can't use it with a mouse and keyboard. I haven't tried out any other NDS games on it. Can't seem to find my MicroSD card location. I discovered just now that the emulator eats a lot of my resources. My device assistant pop up and advice me to kill it.

I thought that I've closed the program after playing with it. Seems like as long as you don't close it, it'll run and eat up your phone resources without you knowing it. Maybe, that's why the smilebasic software suddenly went blank on me at one time.

I'm still not sure why the smilebasic 3ds won't open in Retroarch. The Citra emulator is available on the PC version but I can't find it on the android version. I also tried using a different NDS emulator but they don't work. Seems like it only works with Citra.

For now, I'm just happy that I can play around with smilebasic for 3ds on my Note 10+. It's also a plus that I can use my S Pen with it. Since I've played around with SmileBASIC4 on my Switch lite, I won't have a problem with the slight differences. If only there's a smilebasic for Android gaming!

SAMSUNG S10+ DEX PAD MOUSE KEYBOARD PUBG MOBILE GAMEPLAY


Samsung DeX Pad Desktop Experience for Samsung Galaxy Note8 , GS8, GS8+, GS9, and GS9+ W/ Fast Charge USB-C Wall Charger (US Version with Warranty)

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Play, PUBG mobile with a mouse or keyboard on the monitor or tv with Samsung, Dex Pad!

The Dex Pad is a great accessory for the latest Samsung phones like my S10+, S9, Note9 or any other with Samsung Dex support. It's so light, you can bring it anywhere with you without adding any significant extra weight. That could be important to some of you road warriors.

You can fast charge your phone when docking to it and it also includes a fan that will help cool the battery of your phone if you're gaming, hard. It will still be hot, but not as much. If your phone starts to act weird or slow down, it might be because it's overheating. So, be careful.

So far, I did have a hiccup one time while using the Samsung Dex. I wasn't even doing anything. My nephew came, and I wanted to show him Rush Rally 3. I clicked, the taskbar to set it to mirroring mode but nothing seems to be happening. I forgot what I did, but a few secs later, everything was back to normal. Maybe, the phone went to sleep?

I wanted to show my nephew that you can turn your Samsung phone into an android gaming console with just a dex pad. Too bad, Fifa18/19 mobile is a crappy game without controller support. It's his favorite game on his PS4. While my other nephew prefer playing it on my nintendo switch!

That's the problem with android games. They're full of in-app purchase crap and it's not a full game where you can play it offline. It's really exasperating. And, most of the game doesn't even have controller support. Game developers today, have become a bunch of greedy hyenas!

An old gamer like me really misses the old days, where you can't wait for the latest game iteration to come out. With great stories and adventures. Remember, when we're kids trying to beat the game. Playing until our thumbs grew numbs. Smashing, and throwing the controller when we lose. lol :p

Those are all just memories of the good past. And, now we have all these crappy games that keep asking you to pay to play. Whoever thought of this, have really destroyed the fun in gaming. It's all about the bottom line. Well, good things, we have emulators. I can still relive those days!

I can definitely play it on my S10+ and even use the Dex pad to play on my Tv. The games are also controllers supported. Retro gaming, anyone?

Get the latest Samsung 10+ and Dex pad!

I've said, time and time again. We need popular pc games to be ported to android. I'm no technical expert, but I'm pretty sure they can do it. Imagine, playing games like skyrim, diablo, call of duty and dirt's franchise on your mobile phone. That will be totally awesome!

You can play it with controller support on your lap dock or docked to your dex pad. And, once finished playing, you can straightaway answer that work email or video chat with someone on your phone. It's an all-in-one device right in your pocket!

Path of Exile Free to play


CYBERPOWERPC Gamer Supreme Liquid Cool SLC8820CPG Gaming PC (Intel i7-8700K 3.7GHz, 32GB DDR4, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 8GB, 480GB SSD+3TB HDD, WiFi & Win10 Home) White

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I decided to try out, Path of Exile - Free to play available via steam. Okay, it's been out for awhile but I was bored. There are so many games, sometime, you're pretty much overwhelmed. And, you just don't feel like playing.

The game, not really as fancy as Diablo III but, it offers something different. A different story line and adventure. My gaming rig can handle the game quite well too. Almost, all on high. I was lazy to dabble in the setting. So, I let them set on auto.

My pc have 16gb of ram and a GTX 1060 3gb. Although, I'm running out of space to install new games. That's why I had to delete those that I stop playing. I hate that the games today are so big, it ate up most of my hard disk drive.

I get it that, the games today are massive with latest graphics and files. But, not all good games got to have beautiful graphics. What about having good story line that make you want to finish the game?

Frankly, I've never finished any kind of games for so long. I've even stop buying games, because they're all about multiplayer and having to pay to play. Most game console got the subscription offer with latest games. I just ignore them all.

Nowadays, I just stick with retro games. There are so many out there that I haven't even heard of. I love the fact that I can just slowly enjoy playing the game whenever I want even without wifi or eating up my data.

I discovered, a couple of months back that most of the games that I've downloaded via Apple app store or Google play can't be played without internet access. That's when I realized, all that latest fancy games depend too much for you to log in and play.

The older games doesn't have that kind of problem. You can play the game, basically anytime and anywhere. If you're travelling or on a holiday, you don't need internet access to play. That's part of the reason why I like buying full version of a game.

Anyway, if you're looking for a gaming rig, check this one out!

Gameboy Emulator Pinball Wani (Jap) - Revenge of the Gator Gameplay


Anbernic Handheld Game Console, Game Console 3 Inch 168 Games Retro FC Game Player Classic Game Console 1 USB Charge, Birthday Presents for Children - Black

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I found this after looking for pinball game to play on my ds lite. I played it using the gameboy emulator for the ds. Didn't realized that I had this game all along. Found, the game interesting with couple of tables you can jump to while playing.

People are selling lots of different design mini retro game console nowadays. You're basically spoilt for choice. Even the younger generations are finding the games so much fun even though it came out decades ago.

That's the charm of the old games. It might not be as fancy as the latest console games today. With better beautiful graphics, sound effects and music. For a quiet, simple and relax game alone, it's kind of therapeutic. Well, at least for me.

That's why I could play, Revenge of the gator whole day long!
