[Software]The five cheapest Nintendo DS games on the market
Dean Ambrose™ posted a topic in Software
If we talk about the historical king of video games we have to mention Nintendo. It has triumphed both in the desktop console market and in the portable console market, with examples as notable as the Game Boy, which seems like the company's darling when there are other wonders that many incomprehensibly ignore. This is the case of the glorious and revolutionary Nintendo DS. If you were already making your first steps in the world of video games during the early 2000s, then it is almost certain that you have come across, or even played, with a Nintendo DS, one of the most successful machines in history and which was capable of engaging parents, children and grandparents in the world of video games. Who doesn't remember the times of Brain Training or the first Animal Crossing? The least sought after of the great Nintendo laptop But today we are not going to focus on the best games, we will leave that for another day. Today we tell you which are the five games that will be the cheapest if it happens that you want to add them to your collection of retro Nintendo DS gems. These are… 5. 1,000 Cooking Recipes from Elle Do you remember the Cooking Mama games? Those games were a lot of fun, weren't they? Well now imagine those games but if you take away all the fun. Congratulations, you now have 1000 Recipes from Elle. With this description, you can surely imagine why no one is looking for it like May water, so you can buy it for only $1.58. 4. Kameleon This puzzle game is undoubtedly one of the most curious on the console. Although it was very simple and was basically made up of small colored chips that we had to move. Almost all the players who had this console had this game, so now it is not too sought after. You can get it for $1.54. 3. Let's Yoga Yoga games have never worked on any console, so we don't know what went through their minds to make a title of this type for the Nintendo DS. The result, a game that no one wants even if they give it as a gift with the Happy Meal. If by any chance you want it for your collection you will have to carry $1.51 in your wallet. 2. MinDStorm One genre that was surprisingly po[CENSORED]r during the 2000s was brain games designed to strengthen our minds. Although these games were not bad at all, the thing about MinDStorm is that it is very generic, very recently new, so seen one, seen them all. For the modest price of 2 cents. The cheapest we have ever seen. 1. Imagine Girl Band This game that targeted little girls as a demographic was a kind of Guitar Hero for Nintendo DS but aimed at the littlest ones in the house. Currently, for you to get one, this game is cheaper than a loaf of bread or some pipes. Its sale price is 1 cent. We have seen few cheaper things. And you? Do you have any of these games in your collection? https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/cinco-juegos-nintendo-ds-baratos/ -
You have bought a monitor or you have an old one that only has HDMI inputs, and yet, your graphics card only has DisplayPort, either because you have other ports occupied, or it simply does not have any other options, and you want to know if there is any way to be able to connect both devices. Well today we are going to see it. As a short answer I will tell you that yes, you are in luck and you will be able to do it, also in a very simple, fast and uncomplicated way. It just has some other drawbacks that we are going to analyze now. How to connect DisplayPort to HDMI port? The solution, as you might guess, is with an adapter, or simply with a cable that has the necessary type of connector at each end. That is, we can take advantage of our HDMI-HDMI cable if we already have it, directly purchasing a connector that we will show you now, or buy the necessary cable without further intermediate elements. If you are in option 1, we leave you the adapter here, which will serve you forever if you need it on another device or time. https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B01FQN5X8E/?tag=hardzone-21&asc_source=1071387&asc_campaign=bannerlink&asc_refurl=https://hardzone.es/noticias/perifericos/conectar-hdmi-displayport-tarjeta-grafica/ If you don't have the cable and you just want one that works for both devices, this one with an HDMI and DisplayPort connector is simply perfect. https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B0BZS4XZBX/?tag=hardzone-21&asc_source=1071387&asc_campaign=bannerlink&asc_refurl=https://hardzone.es/noticias/perifericos/conectar-hdmi-displayport-tarjeta-grafica/ Now, we already have the method and the necessary tools to connect our monitor to our graphics card, but... is it that simple? What disadvantages does this have? The first of them, logically, is the expense of an adapter or cable, although that is obvious. However, there is another one that we have to take into account when playing our content, and that is the versions we have, both adapter, cable, and ports. That is, our graphics card and DisplayPort cable can be 2.0 at 77.4 GB/s, however, that speed is not accepted by an HDMI standard, and, therefore, we will limit ourselves to the speed that it offers us, depending on the version. What this one has will be one or the other. This not only happens by connecting a more modern standard with higher speed to a lower one, but also by the type of cable or adapter. Even if we have a 2.0 port, if the cable does not meet the standards, we will not get its speed either. It is something very recurring in HDMI. People who buy the cheapest one and then watch content in HD that they could view on their 2K monitor at a higher resolution, just because they don't pay attention to the version of it, thinking that they are all the same. And the thing is, cheap is expensive. In short, you can do it in two different methods, but keep in mind the limitations, and do not want to do this because DisplayPort supports better speeds, since if you are going to transmit from an HDMI monitor, these will not meet your expectations, so , this is only a solution if you have no other way to do it. If you have to do this because your graphics card has only 2 ports (HDMI and DisplayPort), remember to attach the highest speed one to the best monitor you have, and leave this method for the secondary one. https://hardzone.es/noticias/perifericos/conectar-hdmi-displayport-tarjeta-grafica/

Without a doubt, Blasphemous II has been one of the most important releases of the year, not only in the indie scene, but in general because it has managed to transcend beyond those independent areas that gamers like so much now. So the creature from The Game Kitchen still has a lifespan for a while and new developments are coming, the kind that will empty the pockets of those of us who are careless. These changes have nothing to do with the game itself, which is fine as they left it, but rather with those editions that some companies tend to make once success in digital sales allows them to make the leap to the real world. In the case of Blasphemous II he had already given it, but now what we can see on the horizon is even better and more complete. What a Collector's Edition! As we tell you, an edition like this Limited Collector's Edition of Blasphemous II is not launched if there is no prior success within the field, especially digital. So the opportunity is offered to those who acquired it and cannot display it, to have their fully physical and functional replica on display, on a shelf, or highlighted in a display case that does justice to the wonder of The Game Kitchen. The fact is that it has just been announced, by Selecta Play, a Limited Collector's Edition of Blasphemous II that is an ode to gifts and extras. Specifically, and as you can see right below, it will only come to the PS5 and Nintendo Switch versions, so all the Xbox, PC and PS4 versions are left behind. Quite a logical decision supported, presumably, by the fact that they are the two ecosystems where the most units have been sold. This Blaphemous II Limited Collector's Edition comes with the original game in its blister box, an instruction manual, the game soundtrack on CD, a 60+ page game guide, a Mark of Martyrdom, 12 edition CD covers collector, a letter of thanks from the development studio, a set of eight cards, an album of illustrations and a certificate of authenticity. When can you buy this edition? At the moment there is no official date, it has only been announced that it will arrive in the spring of 2024, that is, it is just around the corner. Of course, they have not revealed an important detail such as the price, so we have to wait. Based on previous experiences with the same company that sells them, we already told you that it doesn't look like it will be cheap and will easily exceed 100 euros without problems. The opposite would be an absolute surprise. We are glad that Blasphemous II is burning stages in this way because it means that things have gone very well since it hit stores last August. Spanish talent, in a title with a very local theme and that is allowing a small studio that does things very well to make its way in the future with new proposals that, we hope, have the same success. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/blasphemous-ii-edicion-coleccionista-fisica-extraordinaria/

If just a week ago we told you that Pat Gelsinger, the CEO of Intel, had attacked NVIDIA saying that no one wants its CUDA technology, now he has returned to the charge and in this case to say that the success that the company is having Jensen Huang regarding Artificial Intelligence has been “pure luck.” Of course, things are getting quite heated between the two companies, especially because on this occasion NVIDIA has come to the fore and responded to Intel's statements. Intel, leading many other technology companies, appears to have engaged in a "war of statements" against NVIDIA in recent weeks. Now they have stated that the success of Huang's team's AI is simply due to the fact that they have been lucky, but as we said before, NVIDIA has not been able to remain silent and has responded, quite elegantly, that "the success of company is due to a clear vision and execution that Intel lacks." The thing about Intel and NVIDIA is already a soap opera This whole mess started when Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger mocked NVIDIA's financial achievements in the data center segment (as you probably already know, NVIDIA's revenue this year has broken all its records), and He said that the CEO of NVIDIA had been very lucky with it. According to Intel, it was fate that NVIDIA and its AI products got to where they are now, and it had nothing to do with the contributions of its team to improve its position. In summary, what the CEO of Intel has said is that NVIDIA's triumph in the field of Artificial Intelligence has had nothing to do with the company's efforts, but rather has been pure luck. «Jensen worked very hard in computing, mainly for graphics at first, and then he got extraordinarily lucky. They didn't even want to support their first AI-oriented project. - Pat Gelsinger, CEO of Intel. Obviously, this hasn't sat well with the team in green, and NVIDIA Vice President of Applied Deep Learning Research Bryan Catanzaro and a former Intel employee have revealed that Intel's Larabee project lacked focus and execution on the part of the team. of the company, which is why Intel has failed in this area. Bryan reveals that despite having 10x the revenue of NVIDIA, Intel didn't even know what they were getting into with Larabee, which ultimately set them back a decade behind NVIDIA's development. Logically, he has also stated that with the efforts of the green team in computing and GPGPU both at the hardware and software levels, NVIDIA has conquered the market practically without any competition. For those who don't know what Project Larabee is about, it was a project that Intel started to develop a parallel multicore architecture, initially intended for the consumer segment but Intel changed its focus and repositioned it for high performance computing (HPC) and computing tasks. parallel processing. The Intel team already saw the rise of AI a decade ago and the Larabee project could have positioned them much better in the market, but it didn't because, according to NVIDIA, they didn't even know what they had on their hands. What is undeniable is that NVIDIA has set the benchmark for AI computing in today's market and controls over 90% of the market share as proof of this. Intel and AMD are now putting a lot of effort into developing their products in this market but they can hardly compete with NVIDIA, who are years ahead of them. Both companies have announced new accelerators, but for now they do not overshadow the products of the green ones. In our opinion, the statements by Intel's CEO are completely misguided. Day by day we see the current state of hardware and NVIDIA has been focusing its efforts on AI for a long time, so we consider that its position there is deserved and the result of work, effort and large investments, not by luck as Intel says. https://hardzone.es/noticias/tarjetas-graficas/intel-guerra-nvidia-ia/

GTA VI is already on its way and although we have only been able to see a first reveal trailer lasting a few minutes, its impact has been such that we have not stopped talking about conjectures and conspiracy theories about what its story will be and what characters could end up. appear. And the latest rumor has as its protagonist Michael De Santa, our Michael from GTA V. What did you miss him? The fact is that we have heard theories of all kinds, such as that somehow GTA V and GTA VI could be connected. We will not be the ones to add water to the wine but Rockstar, if it has been characterized by something, is by making a clean slate with each Grand Theft Auto that it puts on sale and the connections in terms of events and narrative arcs between some are scarce. and others. Will Michael return to GTA VI? Michael is one of the GTA V characters that has had the most impact among gamers. The gangster by definition, a boss who has fallen into disrepair and whose personal story conquers us, has once again spoken about the future we can expect from him. Well, the character was not the one who said half a word, but the actor who gave him his voice and who, for the sake of the success of GTA, has become a kind of media star. In a recent podcast, an anecdote occurred that has put the GTA community around the world up in arms, since the host of the program introduced Ned Luke – voice of Michael in GTA V – as the protagonist of "Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto VI«. Instantly, Luke himself ran to say that "GTA VI is... something completely unknown to me at this moment, just to be clear." That correction to the race, as if something important was being revealed, spread like wildfire through the rumor mills of GTA fans who have quickly begun to give background to a possible participation of Michael within the plot of GTA VI. A mistake or does Ned Luke know something else? As we told you, that initial setback already conditioned the entire interview, which moved through that gray territory in which misunderstanding is played in practically every answer, something that occurred in the following minutes where Ned Luke came to declare that "who knows whether I will be in this [GTA VI] or not […] I mean… if we look at the story I think not, because [Rockstar] never reuses the protagonists, but I still have the NDA in force so even if I knew something, I couldn't say nothing". If we had to opt for an option, we would say that Michael will not be in the plot of GTA VI as an important character. Another thing is that at some point, for a minor mission, Rockstar wants me to make a cameo. If that happened, it is certain that the players would go crazy because a self-reference like that would be one of those that makes history. Don't you think so? https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/michael-podria-volver-gta-vi-falta-confirmacion/

The race for supercomputing is not only so that countries can show off on the list of the World Top 500 that is published every year, but it is equipment that is very useful for the advancement of technology in all areas, whether in computing, medicine, weather forecasting and much more. And now good news comes from Germany, because they have reached an agreement to build two new supercomputers, first Hunter, which will arrive in 2025 and then Herder, which will be ready in 2027. This all comes from a partnership between AMD, HPC and the University of Stuttgart in an effort to improve HPC and AI development in the region. At the moment the agreement involves two supercomputers, Hunter, whose design has already begun and is expected to be operational in 2025, and Herder, an exascale system whose deployment is scheduled for 2027. Meet the two new German supercomputers The goal of both Hunter and Herder is to improve HPC (High Performance Computing) and Artificial Intelligence capabilities, as well as high-performance data analysis (HDPA). The cost of these two supercomputers rises to about 115 million euros (estimated), and will be financed by several government organizations in yet another effort by Germany to become a technological superpower (remember that it is also subsidizing Intel factories in the country). Starting with the first of these two supercomputers, named Hunter, it will have an HPE Cray EX4000 rack and inside it will accommodate 136 nodes interconnected with four high-performance HPE Slingshot interconnections. The system will use AMD Instinct MI300A accelerators, which combine both processor, GPU and HBM memory on a single chip. In total, it is estimated that this should provide a computing capacity of around 39 PetaFLOPS, which is a generous performance increase compared to the Hawk, the University of Stuttgart's current supercomputer, which provides around 26 PetaFLOPS. As for Herder, for now there is no detailed information on the hardware it will mount, but since it is expected to be ready by 2027, it is assumed that they will wait to have the latest hardware available by then. Let's remember that in this case, Herder is an exascale supercomputer, and that means that it must be able to perform a minimum of 1 ExaFLOP or floating point operations per second. Generally, this type of supercomputers do not consist of a single rack, but rather many interconnected ones as you can see in the image above. Big words. In any case, we must also mention the Jupiter supercomputer, currently under development and which will be the first exascale computer in the German country. Of course, Germany's investment in the development of technology is being monumental, so it will be interesting to see if these capabilities drive the country's (and Europe's) overall development process, especially in the field of AI. AMD takes center stage As we have mentioned before, the Germans have chosen AMD and its Instinct MI300A accelerators to assemble the first of these supercomputers, Hunter, giving great prominence to Lisa Su's signature. These APUs (because they are actually APUs with CPU, GPU and HBM memory) have 8 cores and 16 Zen 4 architecture process threads for each CCD, and since they have 3 it means that each of them provides 24 cores and 48 process threads . It has 1 MB of L2 cache per core (i.e. 24 MB) and a separate cache pool (32 MB per CCD). These accelerators integrate 153 billion transistors, have Zen 4 architecture for the CPU and CDNA 3 for the GPU, support up to 192 GB of HBM3 memory and have up to 8 chiplets + 8 memory stacks. https://hardzone.es/noticias/equipos/alemania-superordenadores-hunter-herder/

Flight Simulator officially arrived in the year of the pandemic and since then it has been fulfilling the plans that Microsoft had in it, which is nothing other than transforming it into the reference of the flight simulator genre both on Xbox and, above all, on PC. And one of the commitments made to players was to obtain regular content updates. And seeing new planes arrive is very good, because the range of experiences that are opening up is incredible: from commercial aircraft that are now flying the skies of the planet, to small planes, gliders, drones with four engines, helicopters, etc. Now, what is happening with the scenarios? How is Microsoft improving them little by little? This is how it feels like flying The other leg that Microsoft is taking care of is that of the scenarios, the cities around the world that, although as standard they are drawn based on a type of maps obtained from satellite photographs, seek to reproduce exactly what a specific enclave is like. Until today, those from Redmond had published four city updates and in the last few hours we have had a fifth that especially affects our country. And if that were not enough, it will allow us to fly over and enjoy the views of a beautiful Cádiz that opens to the sea surrounded by its wall and that allows us to enjoy its skyline just as we would see it if we flew over it with some of the aircraft that Fligh has. Simulator. So you will no longer see pixelated textures or strange shapes on the ground, now the buildings and every small element of the city will be perceptible from practically any height. Now, this fifth update not only has Cádiz as the protagonist, but also other cities in Europe and none of them are the ones you are imagining. Neither London, nor Paris, nor Barcelona, Madrid, Rome, Vienna, etc. appear in the pack that Microsoft has just launched, but The Hague (Holland), Brussels (Belgium), Košice (Slovakia) and Zagreb (Croatia). Perfect packs to play in virtual reality These packs are perfect for gaining realism with Flight Simulator, that's clear, but if there is one way in which it especially wins, it is when we enjoy it with virtual reality glasses on (it doesn't matter what monitor you have), since the detail It becomes more perceptible and a higher resolution is necessary to create the effect that what we are seeing is real. So for those who have these glasses, each new update allows you to go check it out as soon as it is published. Remember that these scenario update packs are completely free and with the latest version of the Flight Simulator client installed we will already have it on the PC, or the console. In the case of airplanes, this is another matter because in many cases we are going to have to check out if we want to get the entire available collection. Something that many users have complained about but we fear that Microsoft is not going to change it. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/flight-simulator-mas-real-vuelas-sobre-ciudades/

Apparently, a revealed roadmap shows us Intel's plans for 2024, among which we can see something that catches our attention a little, and that is that, apparently, they will continue betting on dedicated graphics, with the code or name "Battlemage" The latest launch of this type of component has not been a great success, at least by Intel, however, they believe that the new model could work, of which more details are expected to be known in the near future, since its release would be this next year that is about to begin. New dedicated graphics in 2024? Apparently, the new roadmap for this coming 2024 will bring with it the Battlemage, with an Xe2-HPG microarchitecture that will encompass two different GPUs: the BMG-G10 (with a nominal power of up to 225 W) and the BMG-G21 (with a nominal power of up to 150 W). The release, according to Intel itself, is expected to be in the second quarter of 2024, that is, between April and June, although we all know that this is very theoretical and could undergo some change, although we do not believe it will be delayed much longer in that case. It seems that they have everything quite planned and would like to present it as soon as possible. Among the characteristics that we know about these new GPUs we can highlight; X² HPG architecture 56 Xe cores 448 XVE (EU) Each XVE unit consists of 2 shaders 112 MB Adamantine cache 16GB 256-bit GDDR6X video memory Power consumption up to 225W There is not much more data that we have, not even with them we can deduce whether it will be a good launch or a new failure, for now we will have to wait to learn more about them, which will not take long to know, since they intend to market them in less half a year. For now we will settle for the Arc was expected of them. These new integrated graphics cards are designed for both desktop and laptop computers, so we should see different models and versions adapted to each type. And you, what do you expect from these new Intel GPUs? Will they be up to par next year? Or will they lose the battle against AMD, which is becoming very strong. Some sources assure that if all goes well, we could even see these graphs presented at the CES in Las Vegas this coming month of January, something that, personally, I see as very hasty, since there are only a little more than 15 days left, but that, of course, If so, we are not going to object, it would be great news that would surely bring us forward to its launch at the beginning of the second quarter. Intel knows that if it wants to regain and consolidate first place in this sector, it has to turn everything around, and the sooner it does so, the better. A big change is expected in this architecture, let's hope they don't disappoint us. https://hardzone.es/noticias/tarjetas-graficas/escaso-exito-intel-lanzara-graficas-dedicadas-2024/
