Almost ready, this will include the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, and PlayStation Portable studies

@noop_dev I don’t want to sound harsh, but I think most authors of this claim are only interested in engagement instead of technical accuracy

[Rodrigo @Flipacholas]

Lately I’m seeing tons of content claiming the PS1 was conceived as a 2D console and never intended to do 3D. I think there's confusion between cost-saving measures and native 3D operations. See the GTE processor, included for 3D math: https://t.co/cJMYMPxuuA

@Juliolino2020 The ps1 had extra functions for 2D (e.g. rectangle drawing)

Amazon doesn't allow to reply to comments so I'll try here. Did you get your issue sorted? I also received misprints in the past. It's rare but happens. I just had to return them and got another copy without issue.

[Rodrigo @Flipacholas]

@Fxg0dfan Yep, I know about font weights and serifs, what I was asking is what specific page from the books you found difficult? The photo I posted is not very accurate due to the camera used.

[Rodrigo @Flipacholas]

Paperback and hardcover users: do you find the current font size too small or fine as it is? Some of the tools I use now default to a bigger font and this makes me wonder.

[Rodrigo @Flipacholas]

@CreepNTech To be honest, I've always skipped the back because of lack of photos and interesting chips to show (on previous consoles). Maybe it's time to finally change that.

Thank you all, February has been a record month for book sales! Feel free to leave your sincere review on Amazon, as it's helpful for those who are not sure yet or are still deciding between editions. https://t.co/lxxYvvzmjz

Hell yeah! I am excited to dig into this, I've used

's site for Game Boy info before, now I have the real thing

@peevishdave It's a shame that the Italian print is inferior. I can send you a copy from the UK, if it helps.

@nyaaasen @waefrebeorn That’s strange, it wasn’t the case when I ordered mine from the UK printer. But if that happens I’d return it and try another store, I can also post a copy from the UK

@peevishdave I think Amazon gives you 30 days to return it, so if that happens I suggest to return it and try with another store, or I can post you a copy from the UK

[Rodrigo @Flipacholas]

@bgsbudp I started writing about the Game Boy back in 2019, so 7 years in total!

[Rodrigo @Flipacholas]

@peevishdave Never had any complain from Italian sales. I don’t know about other books but I use 400dpi images, which is higher than the standard

[Rodrigo @Flipacholas]

@anxious599 I’m at the mercy of Amazon I’m afraid, but you should be able to purchase the eBook to get the PDF

@bass_espresso Worse, AI used my writings for training
