Tons of good options in the used enterprise market. 3-5 years old, usually some paths for basic upgrades, as well as a flood of part availability from all the other similar systems being off boarded that were broken and not resellable. Laptops can be a bit roughed up, but full sized and sff desktops are usually in great condition.

I haven't cracked my copy of A Wonderful Life yet, so I can't comment there. But if you want something closer to the classic games, Friends of Mineral Town is your game. If you want a more modern game, Pioneers of Olive Town is your game. I enjoyed Pioneers more, something to be said for newer game features and a fresh story.

Recent Story of Seasons titles have been pretty good. They've put out a few remakes of older titles, Friends of Mineral town and the one a few weeks ago A Wonderful Life. And they also have some new titles, Pioneers of Olive Town.

Agreed, Aldi's stuff rarely worse than equivalent products, and some I prefer more than the name brand. Only things I balk at are fake cheese flavored things and canned goods from their German themed store brand.

Apple really doesn't offer me anything I want to do above and beyond what Android offers that makes the cost of transition worth it. I've been on Android for 13 years, I'm very used to it, know all the tricks. I like the level of control Android gives, I've loaded custom roms in the past and I side load apps now. I've also never had a (modern) Apple product and never had the need to set up any Apple accounts, so it'd be a pain starting completely fresh.

User replaceable battery. Just like the DS, little cover with a screw. Makes it so much easier to keep old hardware working well.

I've heard you are supposed to stop by 150

I still play OpenTTD, happy it got added to Steam.

Idk, I'm still working on CS1, maybe after I beat it
