List of games that don’t work on Alpha?
Or a list that don’t play right. Etc. i read about Duke 3D Issue without the L2 and R2 buttons. So I asked chatGPT. And got this. But I’m not sure how accurate. I mean I think Xenocrisis sounds like a blast on the alpha and plan on it as a purchase soon.
I’ll get my first evercade Alpha hopefully tomorrow.
