This Ally is truly amazing - my xbox360 has been gathering dust (I don't think I've turned it on in over a year or two) and now I can bring my games on the go and finally finish all the games I actually bought! (yes, other games are tempting and will surely play them but I figure I should prioritize games like Ilomilo Lol).

@Matzahfiend5 ай бұрын
OK, making custom config files is a nightmare, just add the codes this guy is mentioning into Steam Launch Options, much less time consuming and works well. I tested with all games for launching in fullscreen, launch option is "--fullscreen=true" I tested Blue Dragon, the D3D12 option is no longer the same, it's under GPU, but you can put in launch options "--clear_memory_page_state=true" I reccomend just adding the lines you need into Steam Launch Options, save yourself the hassle of altering the configs on a per game basis, this just saves it. For example, copy and paste this into launch options for Blue Dragon to get it to run in fullscreen and not crash after the logo, "--clear_memory_page_state=true --fullscreen=true" Hope this helps folks.

I followed the steps in the video, but I think either I'm doing something wrong or maybe it's the version of Xenia Canary that's causing the problems. The game I'm trying to play is Ninja Gaiden 2, but for some reason once the game gets past the initial loading screen it has A LOT of slow down to the point that it won't even load in after picking what difficulty level I would like to play on. Also for some reason after trying to play Ninja Gaiden 2 several times with the same results my Ally was giving me problems and after several restarts it reverted my home screen back to a configuration that I had set weeks ago.

I tried reinstalling the graphics drivers and other troubleshooting methods, but nothing seemed to work.

Hey hey! Just checked out your Xbox 360 emulation video with the Xenia Canary emulator on the ASUS ROG Ally - awesome stuff, Retro Tech Dad! 🎮🕹 Fifty games on the Ally? That's some serious dedication right there. So, speaking of gaming gizmos, I've actually got my hands on a Steam Deck. Exciting, right? Now, I'm no techie, but watching your video got me thinking - could the Steam Deck hold its own in the Xbox 360 emulation game? I mean, with its beefy hardware and all, do you reckon it could match up or maybe even one-up the Ally's emulation game? I'm itching to dive back into some classic Xbox 360 titles, and if the Steam Deck could deliver the same kind of mojo as the Ally, that'd be a total game-changer for me.
