8BitDo’s Latest Retro Receiver Lets You Play PS1 & PS2 With Modern Controllers

8BitDo has released their newest Retro Receiver, which allows you to use modern controllers to play games from the PS1 and PS2 era. The Retro Receiver is compatible with a variety of different controllers, including 8BitDo’s own collection. This means that you can even use the company’s Arcade Stick v3 to play games like “Metal Gear Solid” on the PS1. The supported models include the PS5 DualSense, PS4 DualShock, and various Xbox and Nintendo Switch controllers.

However, it’s important to note that while the Retro Receiver enables you to play PS2 games, the gameplay experience may not be exactly the same as the original console. This is because some PS2 games made use of the pressure-sensitive buttons on the controller, which the compatible controllers do not have. Although perfect one-to-one emulation across platforms is still being worked on, 8BitDo’s Retro Receiver is a step towards ensuring that older consoles remain playable for years to come.

8BitDo’s products have received positive feedback from customers and critics, and the anticipation for the latest Retro Receiver is high. However, since the receiver is just now hitting the market, there are currently no published reviews available. But it is likely that we won’t have to wait long for the first reactions to be shared online.

How To Unhide Apps On iPhone: A Step-By-Step Guide

When you install apps on your iPhone, they are placed in the App Library and organized into categories. The most frequently used apps and recently downloaded apps are usually at the top of the list. If you want to see all your apps, you can switch to an alphabetical list view by swiping down on the App Library page.

If you have previously hidden an app from your iPhone home screen, you can bring it back and make it visible again by following these steps:

  1. On your iPhone’s main home screen, swipe left.
  2. If you see the icon of the app you want to unhide and add back to your home screen, long-press on it.
  3. Choose one of the following options:

    Release your finger and tap “Add to Home Screen” from the menu that appears, or

    Continue holding the app icon and drag it onto the home screen.

  4. If you used the second option, all the apps on the home screen will start jiggling. Tap Done to finish the process.

It’s important to note that not all apps in the App Library category will offer the “Add to Home Screen” option when long-pressed. In such cases, dragging the icon to the home screen and tapping Done should work. Alternatively, you can also swipe down on the App Library page, long-press on an app icon from the list, and without releasing your finger, move it to the left to create a copy on the home screen. Remember to be cautious when unhiding apps this way to avoid accidentally deleting an app.
