Hey everyone. Hope you have had a good weekend and are enjoying your summer. This week I've been out of town but I spent a lot of time in airports so I dusted off my Gameboy emulator on my phone and saw i had a Pokémon emerald save that was still before the first gym leader. I now have 3 badges and full steam ahead on the 4th. Hope you all have a great week!

Yeah my hands are not what they used to be so I've got the aim assistance bumped up. But long drawn out fights tend to leave my hands pretty sore. Action games are probably going to disappear from my future it seems.

Almost got through the first boss, just trying to get the hang of dodging, shielding and general positioning to avoid the bullets

Yeah getting used to using the shield took me a good long while.

If you're having hand problems are you doing your hand and wrist stretches before gaming? using any wrist or hand braces?

If not, you should. They help a great deal.
