The NX2navi stuff is really interesting. It turns out that you don't have to blow $5k on tokens to vibe code your thing by yourself. You can rely on the community, with N number of people on $20/mo plans. There are 55 pull requests open right now as I look at 0.7, all of them fixing actual bugs. It's a sight to see.
The unlimited plan starts at $100/mo. Who the fuck is spending $5k lol

I shouldn't have said unlimited but the plans are right here: https://claude.com/pricing

If you blow through the $200 plan in a month then you should at least be pulling profit from what you're doing. I use my $100/month plan nonstop and have only capped out at about 80% usage.

If you're spending $5k a month you are literally retarded or for some reason using API usage rates.

To be clear I am talking individual plans

Are you using the $100/month Claude just for personal stuff?

I use the $22/month Cursor plan and its more than enough for my dumb personal projects.

I think you're mischaracterizing what I said.

When I say that "blowing $5k on tokens" I'm talking about all of these application rewrites. Like Discord's recent attempt to rewrite in Rust or the infamous Bun rewrite in Rust. People are spending a lot of money on tokens to perform the work quickly. Yes, I know, you or I could pay $20 or $200 and have limits that we can hit several times a day and have to wait on resets. If you want something done quickly, you must use the API, and the API costs money.

If someone wanted to brute force AI recompile Zelda, they could do it quickly - although they would need to spend a lot of money. What I'm saying is that is soon to no longer be the case. You could have a project (like said project on github) where 55+ people have PRs against it. No individual will need to spend $5k anymore to reduce the time it takes. You can crowd source it with a bunch of people on the $20/mo plan. Normal people.

Another thought exercise. A few people here are constantly making games or working towards making games. What if, instead, we group together and outline (assisted by AI tools of course) a project plan, split things up to tasks, have it all laid out as github issues. Then your group (us, FoH, for example) then look at said issue list, and we have 20 people that each take 5 issues a day and work on them. Nobody individual is out of pocket more than $20/mo. You will be able to move as quickly as you can manage a project, approve PRs, and resolve merge conflicts.

Happy crowd source vibin'.

Edit: I'll add a pointed statement, because we're here, we love it, and we love each other. Noodleface Noodleface if you think one person built NX2Navi in the past 4 days on a $20/mo or $200/mo plan you're a fucking idiot.

Yeah I have 100/month for my own personal use and I'm forced to use the inferior API usage model at work.

what are people doing as personal projects that they need to pay? Just curious. I’ve designed patios and my kids a clubhouse using the free version. But I honestly don’t find much use for it outside of parts lists and shit.

I'm a software engineer by trade. Mostly applications and game dev. I have 3 games I'm currently designing

There have been 4 releases to NX2Navi since this thread last saw action. I no longer crash in town and it holds a pretty steady 60 fps. Almost ready to look into hooking my laptop up to the TV to play. Still busy with Crimson Desert though.

So it was a major hassle to move the dock in the game room and I refuse to squint at a tiny ass screen with a 70" TV and (2) 32"monitors so my game time has been limited. Ordered a second dock on Amazon and despite saying it worked with Switch 2 it was cheap Chinese made shit. Bit the bullet and bought a second official S2 dock. Nintendo broke it off in me but at least I know it will work when it gets here.

Wife was out today so I was able to game in the living room, tablet with Zelda notes (whomever said use a tablet was dead on that's the way to go) , Pro controller, life is good. In Dodgon(sp?) Cavern. Trying to get bombs in the eye. 100% forgot this dungeon from before. Got the bomb ready to drop in the hole, hit fucking jump instead of drop, land in the fucking LAVA. Die. I really really really hate these backward ass controls. I did at least map sword swipe and jump to the bottom buttons.

I’ve enjoyed that opencritic removed OoT from their 2026 hall of fame but left the Witcher 3 remaster in it. The absolute vitriol at this game but certain segments of the nerd population has been interesting.

Star Ocean First Departure R supposed to get here today. Really enjoyed the second one for steam, so hopefully 1 will be good as well. Haven't been playing switch really, was playing metaphor refantazio and FF resonance on steam. Also pre ordered switch 2 version of Xenoblade 3 that I hope to get the 3rd, can't wait for that Xenoblade is such a great series.

Decided to try this and wow. Nx2Navi is version 0.6.0 now and took about 20-30min to compile. Once I was in game and got everything configured (fullscreen, playstation controller prompts, DLAA, etc) I'm blown away by how well it runs. At the Deku tree and getting 45-60 fps with very minor graphical glitches (some mild flickers in places or brief hiccups) but running this well on PC so soon after release is pretty wild.
I don't know anything about this. Is this just a computer based emulator for the switch, or is this the game itself? And if it's just an emulator, DM me where you found the game. Much appreciated.

The game is in the typical places that has said things. The NX2Navi software lives next to it - point it at the image and it compiles the game for use on your machine.

I downloaded the NX2navi zip file and extracted it to the computer, but I don't see an executable file in there, nor do I know how to make one. Could you offer any assistance?
