You know those "best viewed on internet explorer" and "best viewed at 800x600" icons you'd see on some old websites?I wanna do something like that for games, like you start up my game and it's like "best played on a CRT" and "best played with a ball mouse"

@foone nobody talks about how every mouse got an orchiectomy in the early 2000s.

@foone"best played on a CRT"That's very true for many games. They look too sharp on LCD.

@foone Oh Lord. You've reminded me how delighted I was the day we got an optical mouse and I didn't have to constantly degum the thing with spirits and a q-tip anymore.

@foone There was a window in the early 2000s where you could pretty much do a colour spectrum of PC performance:* Factory Black Computer (cheap new OEM tat where the PSU will give out before the installer finishes)* Beige Computer (Enthusiast who upgraded his 486 systematically to an Athlon XP)* Spray-Painted Black, Blue or Red Computer (Same, but overclocked)* Silver Computer (brand new Lian-Li case crammed with top-end kit)

@foone Some games already do that; "best play with a controller" and "best played with headphones" (on mobile) are common ones.

@RainofTerra @bryan it's actually annoyingly enormous, because I want so much to swap out the yellow ball for a glass one, and put some RGB LEDs in the base so it can be a shiny magic ball.But it's 4 inches, which is 10.16cm.Guess how big every "4 inch" glass ball is? 10cm.
