Anyone here have experience with dual screen PC setups?  I'm looking to replace my monitor I hook up to my Surface Pro with a monitor that I can use my surface pen on and I have found one that refreshes at 75hz.  My Surface Pro is set to refesh at 60hz.  Can a higher refresh monitor render at a lower refresh, or does it then simply add duplicate frames?  Put more clearly, can a 75hz monitor run at 60Hz, or can it only run at 75Hz?

I donlt have much time for much though, but that's also because my wife took on a job before all this that requires me to drop off and pick up my kid each day, so I'm stretched thin. I've not considered commerical options for the pick up and drop off because I spoil my kid.

I remember a post about work life balance from a while back.  Good on you to be able to drive the kid to and from school.  I'm in a similar situation, where a change of workplace for my wife means I now have to drop off the youngest each day.  No CEO position for me though.  LOL

Do you think Nintendo might stealth drop Metroid Prime 2 and 3 to get us hyped for the new game?

Aren't we expecting MP4 rather soon-ish?  I'd imagine at this point they'd just be canibalizing the sales of MP4.

I would prefer August or September but I feel like Nintendo may hold off until November to help with holiday sales. I don't know, Pokemon will be releasing during that time.

I'm really curious to see what they'll show in the partner direct in an hour.  I'm hoping for a lot of third party heavy hitters to release second half of the year, because the one thing the Switch2 is lacking now is games.

That Nintendo Direct was, ok. The highlights for me were:

  • Monster Hunter Stories 3
  • The Adventure of Elliot
  • Octopath Traveler 0

Welp.

That didn't happen.

I feel like the leakers lied to us, those of us who were paying attention.

I was expecting some big AAA games blowout or at least a few more heavy hitters.

What that Nintendo Direct showed was literally a continuation of every game series and/or publisher that already supported Switch.

There were good games, great ones even but there was nothing surprising or unexpected.

I wanted to see something I didn't expect, here's The Oblivion remaster, or Death Stranding.

We've been led down the garden path by leakers saying all this support is coming and then we see, what?

Another Monster Hunter Stories, another Octopath Traveler (which will be awesome btw)

And more Persona and Yakuza.

Bloober teams game looked decent ish. Star Wars Outlaws looks okay.

I spent over an hour last night playing NES Pinball. I've never spent any real time with it before, but it's pretty good. I especially like the Mario break out style bonus level.

Im interested in the Hyrule Warriors games but they need to be a bit cheaper.

Was glad to see proper Switch 2 versions of Yakuza Kiwami and a couple of other games.

Sega seems to want to port as many Yakuza games as possible. I almost bought Kiwami a few weeks back but the sale timed out before I got it.

Wonder if it has an upgrade path?
