switch is such a piece of shit

new trace fix?

>>541111307
should mention that it's nearly as old as the ds itself so i changed it a little to build on libnds 1.8.3, any newer than 1.8.3 and you'd have to learn how to use the calico shit where they completely rewrote a lot of libnds

>>541109509
I don't know shit about DS development, but at a glance, touch all needs to go through ARM7 if what I'm reading is right. Are you sure ARM9 can just read it normally like that? Maybe you need ARM7 to read it and store it somewhere they can both access it? Just throwing it out there. Like I said, never touched DS. Only 3DS.

>>541113923
that is right but libnds provides a default arm7 binary that does nothing but respond to arm9 ipc for things like touch and soudn

>>541113923
my understanding of it from the libnds examples is that the ARM7 only runs a little bit of code to be set to idle and send things to ARM9 while the ARM9 handles everything else

Yeah the battery drain seems pretty bad after updating my switch to 20.x
Is there some actual solution beyong keeping it in airplane mode? My switch is launch so the battery itself isn't the freshest, but dropping 10%+ overnight is extreme

>>541159040
Downgrade to 18.1.0 and use SAK to patch games to run on old firmware

>2 weeks until pokemon za is out
>no leaks
Thats honestly insanely surprising. I guess Nintendo finally learned after many many generations of pokemon.

>>541164856
Give it a week. Someone's gonna leak it by then.

>>541164856
Someone leaked Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 early, they're DEFINITELY gonna leak Z-A.

Having problems with running pokemon X on my 2DSXL. Luma 13.3, most recent firmware. The console is Japanese but allows for region free gaming. Black screen and softlock after choosing language in game. I figured out that this was due to the 1.5 update, I can play the base version just fine. Redownloaded the update multiple times from various different sources, still no dice. Oddly enough, Pokemon Y works just fine even with its respective 1.5 update installed. I also have a physical cart, when I put it in and boot it up it just gives me a black screen softboot immediately. I've tried messing around in luma locale switcher as well but no luck. Any ideas?

>>541172109
Pokémon started being region free in X/Y, so language isn't the issue.
You may need to delete the folder that the update is located or the folder of the game's title ID.
If you got a spare SD card, try a fresh install before deleting stuff. Sketchy SD cards can do bad stuff too.

>>541164856
by the weekend it should be available as usual

>>541164856
guy on /vp/ has it
>>>/vp/58326448

is sd2vita faster than proprietary memory cards? Also is the proprietary port on the 1000 slower than the usb one on the 2000?

>>541164856
Almost no game since 2024 if any at all leaked earlier than the week of release. It's pretty clear Amazon was the problem and blacklisting it left only mom and pop stores who only leak the week of.

>>541159040
Why do you need it connected to the Wi-Fi in the first place?

>>541183840
To install things off my NAS.

>>541105403 (OP)
but my wii does want apple juice

>>541175271
depends on the sd card, i don't think there's that much difference (like even if the sd card was faster the system would likely not allow for that faster speeds to be used)
for the ports, i don't think so

>>541174784

I had an inflated Old 3DS battery too. Replaced it with a Cameron Sino battery and it's all good now.

thanks to the guy last thread who hooked me up with a solid download for pokemon violet, i'm back on the grind now. it's such a pain to find roms though and the only freeshop I have has a 5gb limit. Would think a console as popular as the switch wouldn't be such a headache to 1) mod and 2) get downloads for.

Anyway what are the most reccomended linux and android OS's for the switch? going to take it with me on my holidays next year so it'll be handy to have

>>541190762
oy vey

>>541222934
just get a cheap tablet instead

>>541222934
>shops
lol, lmao
>other OSs
what do you want them for? emulation? the switch already does that just fine. If you're on holidays I doubt you'll use moonlight. Honestly android or linux on switch is not that great of an experience, just get a tablet like >>541225260 says

>>541112649

He's developing a full-on softmod, too, but BadAvatar is a pretty solid boot automation as is.

>>541222934
>Would think a console as popular as the switch wouldn't be such a headache to 1) mod and 2) get downloads for.
that's specifically why it happens to be fair
also having used android on my switch (there's no choice there by the way, you just get the latest version available) i'd say it's not worth it, ultimately you realize everything it can do your phone by now can probably do better, with the switch just having a slightly bigger screen over it. And/or, the switch itself on its own OS can do better

is there any better method for deleting games off of my 3ds without having to go to System Settings -> Software? this shit's slow as hell and some games aren't even displayed there

>>541265562
FBI

nueces

What do you mean pagina dieci I just got it kjn the firstbu aplcea,...

The fact people in here are still playing their 3DS (myself included) shows that the Switch really did not replace it.

>>541294017
is this a surprise?

>>541294414
A little because when the Switch was coming out I thought "new handheld, I guess they're replacing the 3DS".

>>541294659
switch barely even registers as a handheld to me, it's huge

>>541294736
Yeah.

Has anyone tried update bad avatar over bad update?
I have been using bad update 1.2 for while now and using my old xbox 360 acc. Can you flash it over not to lose saves etc?

>>541294017
only cause 3DS still has some games not ported elsewhere, at least for me
though i'd also agree the 3DS was the last true big company name handheld given the switch's portability is only good for playing on the sofa or bed. Even the vita is too big (not to mention the protruding sticks) to actually carry it around without a dedicated case. Sucks most chink handhelds also do this and very few took the clamshell design way

>>541297459
if they had made the switch lite a "clamshell" that closes on its sides (ie the joycons closing inwards on the screen) i would've got one

>>541297459
The niche of actually pocketable machines is taken up by smartphones, would be suicidal to try to compete with those.

>>541306541
smartphones are still too cumbersome to actually play videogames with, even if just for the fact that they don't come with built in controllers. It's the reason chinkhelds that are literally that, phones with a built in controller, sell like hot cakes. Or like in another field, why dedicated music players still sell even though you can just use your phone, people like having dedicated hardware instead of a "it does everything" hardware

>>541315891
I'm not saying you're wrong to want dedicated devices, but I feel you're way underestimating how niche those are now.
PS5 install base is what, 80mil now, random Chinese emulation handhelds on budget SoCs aren't even competing in the same league. Nobody is mad enough to seriously release and treat one like a real independent platform.
For actual high end gaming all platform holders figured out that nobody can afford to have separate handheld architecture and to develop a unique game library for it, so yeah it's all going to be largish luggable devices for the foreseeable future.
The big advantages phones have is they are already in everyones' pockets and people have been conditioned to spend well over a thousand dollars per device so it can have a really nice screen and a top end SoC.

>>541297459
There's a ton of chink clamshells lately. retroid flip 2, miyoo flip, anbernic rg34 and 35xxsp, ayn thor, ayaneo pocket ds...
I wish Nintendo was making one instead because they all have caveats.

>>541323951
same but at the same time i'm glad it's not cause i'd essentially want a more powerful 3DS, and by 3DS i mean a hacked one
they're going slow and steady with it but in 5-10 years i can see those rog ally or legion or even a steam deck getting a clamshell model, maybe even "dual screen" (aka it has a foldable screen)

>>541294017
mostly because there's no way yet to accurately replicate the feel of a 3DS/DS, dual screens is still something so unique that emulators just never feel right, and ports have to get rid of any dual screen capability, which keeps the 3DS a very unique system because its games are hard to adapt to single screen devices.

On top of that, the 3DS was made portable first, even the Switch Lite is not as portable as a 3DS XL.

I feel there's still a market for a DS-like device, but maybe not big enough for Nintendo to justify manufacturing, at least for now, maybe in the future they'll release a 3DS Classic Edition if they feel like it, but it will probably just be an overpriced console hoarded by collectors

>>541337983
The Switch broke Nintendo, they won't do anything cool or interesting for a long time.

Does Retroarch still work alright after the 20.X Switch update?

>>541348303
Retroarch was always kinda busted

>using switch v1 with moonlight on LineageOS as daily driver to play games
>battery is starting to die faster

I’m looking at a steam deck to replace this switch since the oled switch requires a modchip

Is the difference between the steam deck LCD and OLED models that big?
Seeing the LCD on discount right now is tempting

>this is also assuming the steam deck can run android too

>>541356115
consider android chinkhelds for streaming also

>>541356115
>switch v1 with moonlight on LineageOS
use moonlight on the normal os, it's miles better
also i'm pretty sure battery life has always been an issue on android so again just try the normal os first

>>541356375
will look into this

>>541356713
I do use moonlight on switch OS but I use artemis on LineageOS only because of the virtual monitor option that makes playing on the go way easier for me

I was hoping I could install the same artemis apk on the steam decks version of android

>>541357251
moonlight works with apollo too, i myself use it and the virtual display option works just fine

>Is the difference between the steam deck LCD and OLED models that big?
Same power between the two models, but the OLED has:
>Larger battery (50Whr battery vs LCD's 40Whr)
>WiFi 6E (LCD has 5, it's slightly slower)
>Dedicated bluetooth module
>The screen is OLED (duh) and it's slightly larger than the LCD (OLED is 7.4" and LCD is 7")
>90Hz refresh rate VS LCD's 60Hz. On the OLED, you can limit the FPS to 45 and it won't have stuttery framepacing like trying to do 45FPS on the LCD
>Can use HDR (which can cause some stutters and lag depending on the game)
>Can get brighter than the LCD (1000 nits with HDR on, 600 with it off; the LCD is 400 nits max)
>The console itself is a bit lighter than the LCD version
>The touch screen also has better response
>OLED has a longer charging cable kek
I feel like the discount on the LCD is just Valve trying to clear out stock before discontinuing that model, and the battery alone is a a pretty good upgrade, but you do you. There's also the chance of getting a refurb, so check if there are any for your area.
>this is also assuming the steam deck can run android too
Why? For Moonlight? You can probably just use Sunshine instead, which is Moonlight for AMD. No need to fiddle with Android.

Too hopeful for Pokemon weekend?

>>541348303
Use Lakka if it's that important to you. I don't think Retroarch on the Switch/HOS gets any real updates anymore. The team pretty much abandoned it from what it looks like.

>>541371605
I'm hoping it leaks at least by next Friday.

hazelnuts

>>541160320
Don't big updates burn fuses or something like that so you can't downgrade? Also, what I'm supposed to do with already installed games that require >20.x? Uninstall them, patch them and install them again?

>>541393720
can downgrade
custom firmware bypass the fuses
only a problem if you're booting stock on old firmware if you burnt fuses (updating via dayback doesn't burn a fuse)

>>541394375
Well, the stock was already on 20.something when I got it and I updated the emummc so I could play Silksong. That's why I thought I was locked to that firmware. I guess there shouldn't be a problem if the cfw is on another version then.

kicknuts

moonlight on switch can only do 1080p60fps right?

> I traded in my Wii U because I didn't want to buy a new power brick.
> XBOX 360 games sold as if they were new.
Are these people crazy? I know about XONE backwards. But with the bad update, you'd think they'd sell the games for cheaper. Because it's better to RGH or, with the bad update, softmod your console. Resellers and collectors are the worst.

>>541419945
they're fiends but on the other hand they're enabled by the complete retards willing to spend that kind of money. It's especially grating when they go "i want to play this old game, of course i need to buy this used copy that goes for 200 bucks!" as if piracy and emulation just didn't exist in their mind. And like yeah i can get collecting and whatnot, but at some point you have to realize you're just making it worse for yourself and everyone else too by not telling sellers "fuck you i'll just emulate it"

>>541420554
society needs those complete retards to waste money on shit sadly

Would be pretty funny if 3DS and Wii U get a firmware update.

>>541109509
anyone?

>update switch
>install silksong
>finally start playing zelda echoes
I'm done letting this console rot for now. That's what the Switch 2 is for.

Newfag here. Never modded a console before so I got a new sd card for my 3ds but it seems I have to format it to FAT32 first, how do you guys usually do it?

>>541443331
assuming you're on windows there's a program called guiformat that does that

>>541105403 (OP)
Is there any way to easily almost instantly transfer a 3DS save file from your handheld to PC and back? Like over FTP or my home network or whatever? Hell even uploading the save to a cloud service or something. I haven't touched my 3DS in ages but want to be able to play this Pokemon romhack seamlessly on the go and then back on PC through emulation. I don't want to have to whip out the SD card and SD card USB dongle thing and go in and copy and paste blah blah blah every single time.

I have JKSaves program or whatever else on my 3DS already for save file and file management, I know how to backup and transfer saves manually. I just don't know about any easy potential FTP/upload function.
And if it's more of a hassle than just using the USB dongle I guess I'll suck it up.

that means they went to walmart and bought one of those cans of air and used what was left after they huffed most of it to blow out the fan a little bit. then they wiped it off with a dirty baby wipe that was used for like 30 other switches and maybe used to crank one out to some anime. trust me. i used to be a professional ebay refurbisher before the fees made it really hard to profit because i kept huffing so much of the canned air.

Guys, is it a good idea to trade in my XBOX 360 for a handheld like the 3DS or Vita?

>>541489313
never trade in your old stuff, you're gonna regret it later

>>541477678
there probably are people that honestly do refurbish the systems. clean them out, dust, and do the right stuff. the problem with a place like ebay is sorting them out from the people that do exactly what i described.

you also have to remember that feedback is essentially useless sometimes. retards selling to retards with a feedback system like ebay... yeah.

the last time i messed with ebay for anything, someone scammed me out of a rare wii game. they bought it, disputed, and returned a scratched up copy. mine was basically pristine, i only used it once. ebay took their side and i was out $90. they removed my negative feedback from their profile too. i don't use ebay anymore. i've heard the fees have gotten even more ridiculous.

>>541489313
fuck no, that trade's absolutely retarded especially now that softmods finally exist on 360

when will people find a way to install regular programs on xbox series s

>>541499048
this, I want to play Excel in mine

>>541489801
That’s exactly my fear. Receiving a product and it has issues or stops working down the line

At that point I’d rather get an open box model from best buy and at least there I have a better chance of returning it if it stops working

>>541503701
that's the risk you have to accept when buying used products online

easy question for those who know. i have freemcboot on a mem card and hdd with games on my ps2. if install freehdboot and stop using the mem card does that make transferring games on to the hdd more annoying? is that the tradeoff? i currently enjoy just dumping some ISO's and having it be that simple

What purpose does a hacked Vita serve these days? With 3DS, I still have Atlus, Pokemon, and Dragon Quest to keep me attached.

>>541507007
no, it's just as easy

>>541507007
you just need pfs batchkit it does everything for you

>>541507994
I still find it the comfiest handheld for playing gba games in bed. I use my 3ds more often because everything else is on it, but vita is still comfier.

>>541509498
>>541508680
ok is there a video or something. i really like the idea of just dumping a bunch of Iso's onto my hard drive. i can organize them in folders right? i dont see the issue. but if there really is a simple easy way to have fhdb with game transfer then point me or tell me plz. as it stands right now i've reformatted my hdd back to exfat and am going to start dumping my personal collection onto it

It's been way too long since I visited this general
Need some help, I wanted to upgrade my 3DS' SD to a 64GB one, but it seems the SD I'm currently using on my 3DS has a virus
Anyway what I want to do now is just to use the new SD from a fresh start, how do I go about doing that?

>>541511636
excuse my writing i am an esl
using freehdboot requires you to format your hdd with ps2 format which is a bit of pain to transfer games to (pfs batchkit makes the process kinda of easy), if you want to drag and drop your games directly to the hdd (exfat) you have to use freemcboot (booting from your mc) + latest version of opl with bdm support, also you can take a look at neutrino which is a barebones command-line lightweight ps2 game loader with no plugins which adds to it's games compatibility somehow.
(this link is for a neutrino frontend based on opl which makes it easier to use) https://www.psx-place.com/threads/opl-based-gui-frontend-for-neutrino.42166/

(this is a cool project that combines both neutrino and ps2 bbn)
https://github.com/CosmicScale/PSBBN-Definitive-English-Patch

btw both of these link provide you with how you can transfer games, especially the ps2bbn english patch

thank you. im going to assume you're mexican. thanks for the explanation but i prefer drag and drop exfat. except even this method has hit a speedbump. i guess i tried transferring too many games or in an irregular manner because now a bunch of games i downloaded are coming up as fragmented in the OPL. hoping i can just delete them and replace, but something tells me im going to be reformatting the whole device again.

What I would do: If it's a 360 fat that's loud OR a 360 with very small storage space, I might cause those two things makes gaming less enjoyable.

If it's a 360 Slim/Elite with decent storage space I'd definitely keep it and save up for the 3DS. The 3DS is a great gaming device and so is the 360.

newfag here.
got a ps4 fw 6.72 with gold hen, some hb software and a edited local db to hide some useless apps.
can i update to the latest jailbreakable firmware without factory resetting the console?
should i even upgrade?

>>541565610
it's possible with a firmware update file on a usb stick, but newer jbs can be less stable or convenient

'ass 'brew

>>541574674
from what i've heard, 9.00 is the most stable jb and basically it never crash.
my 6.72 has crashed sometimes, about 10% of the times.
it's a bit inconvenient if you don't have hardware to simulate a usb connection.

Where's the DQ1+2 nsp?

Okay, Pokemon ZA. I'm ready

>>541603969
yea idk what you mean but it used to be you just type in gba no intro and download one big file. now im not seeing jack shit when i type that in for ps2. worse i dont see ps2 on some sites. i guess have to torrent hunt

>>541604447

Wonder if that leaker from last thread will ever come back with more.

best gba emulator for the vita? do I really need to install fucking retroarch to have something decent?

Best friends, I got this Evangelion platinum complete DVD set that I wanna watch on my CRT but wont play on my Japanese MIDNIHT BLACK edition PS2 because regions, and I can't get mechapwn to work. Thinking of getting a PS3 instead. My options are a hacked and working but cum and cigarette covered superslim from a friend for 50 bucks or I can try and get a CECH-21xx (alleged best ones?) from Japan for around 100. OP says all FW can be homerewed, so would I be good with a clean JP console? Anything they could have done to it to make it non-brewable?

Since when are PS3s 100-150 bucks anywas? Did some youtuber shill them?

>>541673689
Wow. So you're thinking you can buy it back later anyways if you want.

>>541673829
no, rather I think what's more likely is no one will be interested in buying your 360 with all the existing supply so better keep it. If I were you I'd go for the 3DS first before they go up in price even more, Vita might too but it's usually Nintendo shit that appreciates the most

i have partition based emunand. definitely not on sysnand. was just looking through hekate if theres any where i have put too much storage for a useless partition or something but i didnt wanna change up settings randomly

>>541704746
just be careful in there, and don't repartition from hekate as it will erase everything
maybe your sd card is being used in sysnand? boot into both and check what's installed

How much would you a pristine, unused, fully functioning PS3 slim?

>>541717195
$20

>>541717441
Shiet.

Seriously though, were PS3's always this expensive? It's not impossible to find a reasonably priced model, but the majority of listings are for unmaintained systems which "coincidentally" don't happen to have any of the cables, so they can't test them for full functionality.

I feel like most people are wholly unaware of 7th gen console's failure rates.

Serious question.
Could it be possible that that Unity vuln could be a potential entry point for a homebrew exploit for the NS2, PS5, or XSX?
If so, lol

>>541720496
VNs are currently the way to exploit games, so possibly.

>>541719298
try looking at charity stores and japanese auction sites, btw it's $20 in my country

>>541719298
that's the ebay tax

>>541721184
>japanese auction sites
I am American, buying overseas is considered an act of treason, which is unfortunate. I miss buying chinkshit for a reasonable price.

I don't know how viable Japanese auction sites are either. I looked into them *a while ago*, and I found exceptional prices. I read a few guides on proxy shipping, but nothing came of it.This was just as more people were catching onto buying from Nippon (either directly or via proxy shipping). I've read that it's a trend for gaijin to buy 3DS' in particular, and bring them back to the states for profit.
>>541721676
This is the case for Fuckbook Marketplace and Offerup as well. In fact, I feel like I'd be better off buying from eBay since they have buyer's protection, and the seller can't just ghost me or neglect to mention that a certain functionality doesn't work without them getting raped by eBay.

>>541720496
No. The vuln is a nothingburger. It requires dropping a dll and altering launch parameters.

>>541722562
check this : https://www.psdevwiki.com/ps3/SKU_Models
be sure to only get 21xxx-25xxx if youu care about cfw and reliability, if you don't you can get 30xxx, avoid the superslims because some models have a high gpu failure rate (especially the ones with 45nm rsx) for some reason

They're not. Like you said:

Many of them probably know full well that the consoles might be kaput (or close to it), so they're hoping some dumb sod buys them, and if the console doesn't work they can just try to go "well, we both knew it was untested, and it was the risk you took teehee"

Hypothetically, how practical is it to use mig cart + switch2? Does it work? Do back compat games just run in handheld 720p profile?
I have a hacked switch1 but frsher hardware would be nice at this point.

nuts

>>541856892
most were banned on release, maybe because they didn't wait for an update which supposedly makes it work now
>back comp
games run as if you played a switch 1 game on a switch 2, tiny performance boost but nothing major unless you get the upgrade pack for a game, which you can't on mig

kickass

>>541824038
pretty much, it also depends on what you're streaming, i noticed streaming emulated switch games (with pumped up settings) means i get a slightly worse visual quality and more lag than usual for example (aka my pc is bottlenecking the whole thing)

pokemon
>why?

>>541856892
>Hypothetically, how practical is it to use mig cart + switch2
practical for about a week, then your console is soft-bricked due to being unable to get updates for any games ever, and unable to access eshop anymore

hello

Paige 10

>>541873702
never realized how damning that is for a system that isn't otherwise hacked. At that point you outright need to get it modchipped to use it, making the mig switch even more useless

>>541977108
do you play with other people? if so download the most played multiplayer games and have them ready with all dlcs and completed saves

WHERE IS POKEMON HOLY SHIT

— You see, little Timmy, back in my day there were still those things called "shops" and you got to keep games for life if you were willing to steal them.

>>541984590
of course little Timmy, just wait 5 more hours

So i tried using some cheats in Xenoblade X DE on switch. Cheats are not recognized, then the game stopped starting. It gets over the nintendo logo and then gives me the generic error for the software stopping. Can i troubleshoot this somehow? Maybe deleting update and reinstalling? I am checking with DBI for integrity, would that find something?

>>541998028
does it happen only when the cheats are enabled? Have you enable every cheat at once (maybe some of them break them game)? Also iirc there's different cheats depending on the game's version, maybe that is something to check out too

>>542003568
The cheats were never even recognized by the game. I deleted the game and reinstalled it and it still crashes. Maybe has something to do with the save game? But i dont even reach the main menu screen.

>>542003931
>The cheats were never even recognized by the game.
ok but that doesn't mean the cheats are disabled, or aren't affecting something else. How are you even using them in the first place? Edizon?

>>542004038
So i have Breeze and Edizone installed. Both didn't see any cheats, then i tried downloading a text file with manual stuff and that wasn't recognized either. The actual trigger..i guess, was when i went into tinfoil, i checked the cheats tab of the game, nothing was shown and then i tried opening the game and it crashed ever since. So i didn't activate anything

>>542004372
idk then, you can check DBI for orphaned files but i don't know how and if that will fix anything. Try also doing a clean install, it's explained in full in the guide in op but basically you delete all the folders of the hacks stuff off your sd card and put in fresh ones, you don't lose anything but some atmosphere/hekate settings (if you ever changed those from the defaults) but you can just reapply them, games and saves won't be affected

>>542004674
Maybe i can backup the saves, do a full wipe of the game and then reinstall it. I just archived it this time

>joycons are still drifting
Is there still no solution to this?

>>542006108
You get a new stick

>>542006108
i got hall effect sticks more than 2 years ago now and still no issues, but to be fair my og sticks took a similar amount of time before the drift showed up and quickly got worse until they weren't usable anymore

Is this how you make backups?

>>542035367
yeah stealing multiple copies counts as having backups

>>542005235
wtf are you doing holy jesus
don't use shitfoil, use edizon cheats in tesla menu (ultrahand menu wors as well)
if you don't want to search for them and install them yourself, just get the HATS package
make sure the txt file you download is for the correct build of the game, i.e. game version (1.0.1, 1.0.2, etc)
if you want the cheat list with the most cheats you need the latest version of the game
if you want the 60 fps cheat you must use the first update which is 1.0.1 iirc

>>542004674
>>542048924
IT WAS the cheats text file...Huuh..i deleted it and i can access the game.

>>542049129
cheating in games is basically moving things in memory, so if you load a wrong or corrupted cheat it will move shit where it's not supposed to, breaking the game.
there should also be an "enabled" txt file or similarly named, you can just delete this one if you're sure you have the correct list for your build. Deleting it basically toggles all cheats off, and you can enable them one by one again

>>542035481
No

>>542060173

exFAT

>>542062151
Isn't DBI made by some schizo that has some sort of bricking thing in it? I wanna avoid using that if at all possible.

>>542061829
No, installing over USB. With a USB transfer program or DBI's MTP responder mode.
Although if you have a USB HDD formatted to exFAT, you can install from it too with DBI.
>>542062480
The brick code isn't real but even if it was you can just use an older version

>>542062230

what are you using official joycons for?

>>542013448
Funny enough my hall sticks drifted after several years of use. They lasted significantly longer than stock but I'm still annoyed it happened.

So for like the entire 3DS lifespan that I was aware of, only one NDS flashcart could potentially work with it, and that was the R4. That's what I remember, anyway.

I had the CycloDS. I still do. Apparently now it works with the 3DS using TwilightMenu++? Is this true? I can take my NDS flashcart CycloDS and toss it into my 3DS and all I have to do is put some files on the root of my CycloDS sd card?

>>542111761
many nds flashcarts worked ootb with 3ds
all nds flashcarts work if you install ntr launcher
twilightmenu++ is a piece of shit, ignore it

I've reported getting a $5 pair of hall effect switch sticks over a year ago, anon was surprised since at the time the market was limited to pricier gulikit ones. Haven't been playing on the ol' bing bing wahoo machine much, but for what it's worth they are still working fine.

Why do controllers even drift anyway?
STILL have an original ps2 controller
Does not drift.
Have a gamecube controller I bought when the wii first came out. STILL does not drift.
I have a 'crappy' 3rd party switch pro controller I bought for like $20 when the switch first came out. It STILL does not drift. Mean while EVERY joycon I have ever owned drifts. Only other time I have ever dealt with drifting is one time in a ps4 controller and every other time has been madcats controllers or other 3rd party ones.

>>541643802
>hacked and working but cum and cigarette covered superslim from a friend for 50 bucks
That particular model, as well as >25xx manufactured after April 2011, are not CFW compatible, though they are HFW compatible. I haven't looked much into super slims nor HEN/HFW, so I don't know exactly what you'd lose out on; I don't know if it's simply a loss of convenience that comes with CFW.

If you don't care about full CFW functionality, at least make sure the bluray drive works--especially considering the condition your specimen of a friend left it in. It's already jailbroken so you won't run into a boot loop when trying to update the FW to jailbreak it, but a functioning bluray drive (the logic board at least) is required for a few functionalities--playing PS2/PS1 games is one of them. A workaround exists to convert ISOs to pkgs (I believe), but it looked rather inconvenient, so I didn't look much into it.

>CECH-21xx (alleged best ones?) from Japan for around 100
Is that before taking shipping costs into consideration? They can be pretty high, especially with something heavy. If you go that route, I'd go ahead and order some trinkets from Area 11, like some animu figures to go along with your thousand-times-folded PS3. If you can't read moonrunes, make sure to translate each page carefully.

I'm not all that familiar with consoles from different regions, but it looks like it should work as-is

I don't know why people are saying it's easy to fix a Switch joycon.

I don't have a screwdriver small enough to open it and I'm afraid of fucking up the circuit board.

>>542125724
It is easy. Most stick kits will come with a shitty screwdriver that's good enough for one time use. Plastic is chewy and screws are easy to strip, but like with anything electronic if you take your time and don't just start forcing things, it's not too easy to damage.
Soldering fullsize sticks is quite a bit more involved by comparison.

>>542125724
It's super easy if you aren't a gorilla who rips PS1 traces.
Helps if you put a small investment into a good screwdriver to do the job properly though.

>>542125724
>don't have a screwdriver small enough to open it
then get one. you should have an ifixit kit or some shit if you want to repair things

>I'm afraid of fucking up the circuit board.
you won't, but you might fuck up the rail ribbon cable, it's extremely flimsy. replacements are probably easy to find though.

>>542125724
what the other anons said but the main point is that it's easy by virtue of there not being soldering involved, like there is on other "proper" controllers.

>>542115623
>Why do controllers even drift anyway?
2 main reasons.
> Small debris (mainly dust) interfering with the contact between the joystick/board.
This one is the reason why sometimes can be fixed with proper cleaning
> Decay on the contact itself
This is why these cheap joysticks end up failing forever and you should change them to hall effect.

why do ps4 fpkg games load so slowly on ps5? i tried booting up last of us 2's ps4 version and the loading times are in the minutes

>>542144704
kstuff is a workaround for the lack of a hypervisor exploit
kekcalls are very inefficient

>>542109416
I always wanted those but recently saw TMR ones and got those instead. If I notice any drift I'll report back

>>542160425
I think you just gotta deal with it

Is it possible to hack a og ps4 to play PT

>>542166993
yeah it's just a fpkg you can install

i finally hacked my ps5 and installed a bunch of ps4 games... is it normal for them to load so slowly and drop frames?

>>542169161
You're too used to the PS5's 4K 60 FPS and 0 load times

>>542169990
um... no? i just tried uncharted 4 and the fpkg takes about 1 minute to initially load. normally takes like 10-15 seconds

>>542169990
NTA but fpkg on ps5 absolutely take way longer to load than discs/fpkg on ps4

>>542169161
No, it's probably some hardware issue like picrel.
RIP PS5

>>542177031
This only happened to someone who dismantled his ps5. this is deboonked

>>542177031
of course not. It only happens with some fpkgs, not retail discs

I timed it with a stopwatch. The Last of Us 2 fpkg initial load pressing continue game turned kstuff on, loaded game, turned it off took 2 fucking minutes.

Why is this happening?

I tried it with TLOU remastered fpkg, 5 seconds. Uncharted 4 fpkg? 1 minute load. Why is it some games but not others?

>>542181671
ND games have long boots in general. Try literally anything else.

well yeah but i watched a video of tlou2 booting up from a playthrough and it took like 25 seconds, an increase of 4x is pretty noteworthy desu

Its really not going to be until motherfucking monday
Nintendo's not playing around this time.

Why do you want Pokemon when it hasn't been even close to half decent since it was on handheld.

>>542185901
I have played every pokemon game before release so I can rub it in faces, Im not going to stop now
also pla was good

>>542068568
no, but beethoven is

>the ps5 struggles to load last gen's movies
Do SNOYggers really?

i wanna play the new final fantasy tactics but my switch is on firmware 16.0.3, is there any way to play it on this firmware or do i need to upgrade to 20.4.0? also are there any things to be aware of when upgrading to newest firmware? i didnt dig deeper but i read something about sig patches not working out of the box with atmosphere anymore

>>542191601
try using SAK

>>541105403 (OP)
When do you expect the switch 1/lite to be easily homebrewed like the 3ds

>>542192941
5 years

>>542193348
...ago.

>>542195420
>switch lite was released in 2019
>first modchip was in 2020
damn it......

>>542196463
Is mod chipping and soldering the only way to do it still?

I can solder. Just not sure if it's worth the risk

>>542192941
>>542196463
>>542198167
Man, I would love to own a switch lite, but no way in hell I ever will, the way the damn joycons drift

>>542198527
How common is this even on the lite? I heard you can switch out the sticks if needed

>My USB port on my Switch stopped allowing USB installs for some reason
>The game I want to install isn't on the DBI shop and is too big to put on the card directly
Well that is annoying. Guess I have to lean how to split NSPs.
>>542198527
I hear the lite actually doesn't have that problem nearly as much. Personally I wouldn't risk it but for whatever reason that seems to be the case.

>>542185901
PLA was a pleasant surprise. Though ZA is looking like it'll be dogshit and that's not because of the battle system change (that's the only good looking thing).

>>542215001
>DBI shop
That's where the brick code is, bruv.

Best Pokemon game for actually catching pokemon and its not even close
I'm all ears for any other game that lets you catch monsters in a fun way like that game did.

bwos... my 3ds broke i dropped it off a balcony

You shouldn't have done that

i turned on my 3ds for the first time in years. It still had 1 bar of battery left but when i tried to charge it overnight it still had 1 bar. Charging indicator shows its charging technically so im unsure on where the problem lies. do i replace battery?

>>542230339
>do i replace battery?
Probably yeah. I had to replace mine once because it wouldn't hold a charge like that. If you really want to test it, leave it on until it drains completely and then leave it plugged up for the amount of time they say it takes a 3ds to charge and see if that fixes it. I know with switch the battery calibration can get fucked up and doing that resets it. I never seen it happen to a 3ds but it should be possible for it to happen.

But I'd bet its just a dead battery. It happens.

>>542230674
desu i hope its the battery because if its deeper than that it would be way more annoying to fix probably. any recs for replacement batteries? ive read most ones are scams with way higher capacities listed than actually used

>>542230778
I'm sure it is the battery. I use my 3ds all the time still and its still going strong. I just had to replace it that one time.
>any recs for replacement batteries?
Ah man, when I replaced mine it was back when Nintendo was still making them/selling them. My advice is go to ebay, look for them there and see if any reviews of the people selling them say if they are legit/work. And see if anyone on there is selling actual official 3ds batteries.
I hear ifix it is reliable though there prices are bit expensive. I remember people back in the day talking about how you could upgrade the 3ds battery too. Maybe search online on how to do that and buy a battery that they recommend for that. I almost went that route when I replaced mine but figured I'd just stick with official. Search around. Maybe check out gbatemp, they normally have buying guides and upgrade guides and what not.

Is there anything cool I can do with this? I also have a GBA and a SP somewhere around here. I should probably find those.

>>542218086
how does that happen exactly given i'm pirating every game of theirs?

ZA
>where?

any real reason in terms of losing RAM for homebrew to stay on 19.x? might just go to 20.x, it's only like 10mb as far as I can tell?
never gonna care about TOTK mods anyway

>>542235819
what's on version 20? haven't updated since like v15

>>542235819
I'm 18.1.0 and used SAK to install mario galaxy 2

>>542237371
it's not that there's anything new on it, it's that you lose some available RAM for homebrew if you update from 19.x

Updooting to 20.5 so I have no problems

>>542206854
>How common is this even on the lite?
FWIW, I had a lite that started getting slight drifting issues after nearly two years. I was pretty careful with it, even in Smash I avoided getting too rough with it, and most of my playtime at the time was stuff like Animal Crossing and other games that didn't need sudden joystick movement.
>I heard you can switch out the sticks if needed
You can, but opening up a lite to replace the sticks is more annoying than doing it for the joycons, since you have to disassemble more stuff to get to the sticks.

>>542218086
NTA but I was expecting so little of PLA that I actually thought it was better than their other recent stuff. I guess it was also different enough that I thought "well it could be better, but at least it's a start"
I still think it's hilarious that playing in docked mode has way more stuttering than on handheld, and most people never seemed to notice that because so many keep it docked

>>542235098
>claims
Wake me up when they actually release anything relevant.

>>542232992
Backlight IPS screen and a flashcart, very easy to do.
But you have an SP so not much point really.

>>542247806
I may mod the GBA (if I can find it) since there's more games there that I want to play and I prefer that form factor over the SP. I've spent all night looking for it though and haven't found it unfortunately.

>>542234035
wouldn't be surprised to see zammis involved. after all the slaps on the wrist he's had for hacking there's no way he's learned his lesson

I have an original 3ds with an ancient version of Luma that I don't remember the details about. It often crashes when booting Luma and when I boot a game, even a legit purchased game, it often gives me a black screen with "an error has occurred please restart."
I've been looking into updating, all the guides say to hold select when booting to see the version number so I know what guide I need to follow. Absolutely nothing happens when I boot whilst holding start or select or both, it just boots into the stock firmware. If I hold L I get the funny colors screen and the Luma3DS launcher which can successfully launch Luma about half the time, but I don't see where it indicates Luma's version number.
Seems I need to fix it but I don't want to brick from following the wrong guide from a fucked up starting point as well.

>>542281649
>. If I hold L I get the funny colors screen and the Luma3DS launcher which can successfully launch Luma about half the time, but I don't see where it indicates Luma's version number.
this means you're using menuhax, which also means you're probably using an emunand setup
first install boot9strap and update luma, then decide what to do with the emunand

It will get leaked sooner than 5 days

Same old leak season. Fags get the game, drip feed info so they can gain epeen, keep teasing they'll leak the xci but never do, then go apeshit when someone else steals their thunder.

Hey anons I downloaded Vita3k and while installing it had some preinstallation firmware stuff I could choose from, and when I clicked on the first option it took me to a website and my browser didn't download what it tried to give me, saying it was 'potentially harmful'. Is there something smarter I could be doing here or is it no big deal?

onions

ZA LEAK ALREADY
Im kidding, it wont leak until mondya and thats assuming I get lucky, I wont
It wont leak until the dAY after itds out

>>542341358
I, too, was really hoping for this weekend

>>542317774
Isn't it just saying that because it's served over HTTP?
Don't worry about it. It's http because the firmware is signed (although whether or not vita3k checks is another question). You can also navigate to Sony's website and download it.
Also, /emugen/ is that way

Just BadAvatar'd my old 360.
I want to play original xbox games but all the guides I find seem outdated or no longer relevant to current scene.

Aside from that I'm having trouble finding xiso rips of games.

Does anyone have an updated guide or resources to help me?

>>542358469
>get a hard drive
>search for xbox rgh download
>choose your shitty site of preference ( I personally use dlxbgame )
>install aurora

>>542364434
I'm currently at step ">transfer games through usb or ftp"
I have xefu patches but where do I put the games and in what format?

>>542364768
Just make a folder on the root and name it whatever, format doesn't matter, current dashboards read most of them, just don't forget to clear your filters so they appear on aurora.

>>542364768
extract the game using extract_xiso to folder format , then put the games in the same directory you keep your games in and refresh aurora after that

>>542366072
>>542366080
Gotcha, copying now.
I've had to go back to my kingston USB drive since the xbox isn't detecting the Sandisk portable SSD.
Thanks for the tip, all guides I found had me create partitions on the hard disk using homebrew.

>>542369336
anon that partition is necessary for og xbox games, it works as a vitrual hdd for xbox games

Got an old modded V1 switch that I last updated maybe almost a year ago. I don't wanna use it but it has a pretty decent 512gb microSD in there I want to use on a camera instead.
I only got one spare microSD around for the switch and that's a 64gb one. I still want to keep my switch modded but that's about it. I don't want to keep a backup of my saves or games or whatever the fuck.
What's the fastest process for this? Couldn't I just transfer the files on one SD card to the other and just generate a new emuMMC and get it over with? I remember doing this sort of process with the 3DS.

>>542364434
>>542366072

reminds me: remember to follow gbatemp and stuff like this https://github.com/Fl4sh9174/Switch-Ultrawide-Mods/tree/main for eventual patches like 60fps and whatnot. Obviously it's mostly geared towards emulation but usually these patches also work on switch proper (if you're willing to give something else in return, as in you either get better resolution but less fps or viceversa)

What do you guys use to install nsp over USB? AwooInstaller throws an error and I remember DBI having malware inside

>>542401914
Use DBI v658. It's completely safe from the author's autism and installs everything I throw at it without issue

>>542401914
I use DBI but you claim it to have malware which is something i've not heard off.

Use DBI version 616, and you will be fine to install over USB.

>>542402323
>It's completely safe from the author's autism
Are you sure?

>camera doesnt let you upskirt
Strike 1
It better be modded out by the time the game releases.

>>542402832
I'm >>541971569 and I just installed over 400GB worth of games with DBI658 with no problems over the weekend. All work perfectly and honestly I haven't heard of anyone having issues using that version specifically. Use Tinwoo if you're that apprehensive of using that freakolli's app

>>542385972
this crashing for anyone?

>even if it's dropping frames
That's GF's bread and butter now. I'd be more surprised if they managed to make the game not shit itself on the Switch 1

>>542404716
>>541111874

Attempting to install ZA using DBI onto EmuMMC results with a "success", followed by "Corrupted data has been detected. Please run a check for corrupt data." on attempts to launch.

Anyone got this running on hardware yet? Emulators certainly aren't working.

>>542406816
Update your shit. Half the internet has confirmed it works at this point.

>>542406984

Hekate and Atmosphere updated, new sig patches from gbatemp, fresh install of DBI, the non pozzed variant from a link above.

I don't see anyone playing this on switch. Citron and Ryujinx don't work either.

Right now the only people making progress through the game are on a very specific r of an android emulator called Eden.

You sure?

>>542401131
I was unsurprisingly right, I'm at the tutorial and it's 80% of the time around 20-25 fps, even during cutscenes and indoors

New nurse joy has a FAT fucking ass holy shit

>>542407396
Play on Switch 2 then.

>>542407358
I got it working on hardware but I'm on SysNAND. Use sys-patch to bypass possibly outdated sigpatches.

>>542407358
I had the same problem. As >>542403826 suggested I used TinWoo (I didn't know Awoo was forked) from here: https://github.com/mrdude2478/Tinwoo-Release/releases
I had to add kip1patch=nosigchk to my hekate_ipl.ini, otherwise it wouldn't start the installation process. Now the game starts fine.

>>542407358
Pretty sure

>>542407818

>>542415324
With or without the game's 1.0.1 update?

Does updating from 20.1.1 to 20.1.5 require new sigpatches? I'm only asking because atmosphere doesn't need to be updated.

>all free shops are absolute garbage
>alternatives are absolute garbage too
I miss libera shop, I wish the owner wasn't a retard, assuming his excuse to close the shop was true.
>inb4 shops were always bad
Worked on 3DS very well, although because you downloaded directly from Nintendo's servers. I can see why people don't like switch shops, but it isn't because of the concept of shops on itself, but because 90% of shop providers are jews wanting to make a buck out of it, defeating the point of piracy in the first place.

>>542383953

To those having issues installing rhw game on modded Switch consoles - Remember to RCM boot into the most recent build of Fusee to launch Atmosphere rather than Hekate, that -should- fix any install problems you may be facing.

My ryujinx keeps crashing on the first cutscene. I downloaded the latest firmware, the game nsp. havent downloaded the update because apparently that crashes the emulator too.

Maybe I'll wait for Prime 4.

Fw 21.0 probably launches tonight

>>542485009
It's actually running pretty well so far. No major frame drops and the game is pretty fun

>>542498536

impossible

do people really give a fuck about pokemon? it hasn't been good in like 25 years

I was hoping ZA released on switch 2 only so hackers could get pressured to hack it so competitive players could continue genning their pokemon

>>542515470
given switch 2 likely won't have a "it works on all firmwares" hack, if it ever gets one it's better for it to happen as far in the future as possible. Like no reason to hack it now just to play dong kong and mario kart and nothing else

It's mostly an RPG or Monster Hunter machine. With random puzzle or platformers chucked in.

Has anyone managed to get ZA running on Android? Eden is crashing and has visual artifacts during character creation.

Another RGH exclusive feature brought to Bad Update

>leaked signed factory RCM payloads

is there hope for a Switch soft mod?

Tourist here.

Using a combination of eden, and the latest ryubinx, emulatorfags are powering through legends ZA.

Does anyone here have the game running on modded hardware yet though? I've seen a few posts claiming to have it done, but no proof.

Currently, Tinwoo and DBI are both resulting in a "corrupted" install, with NSBU-loader throwing a failed to install message.

Running on EmuMMC on 20.5.0 with the latest gbatemp sigpatches if that helps.

Someone suggested booting directly through fusee, rather than the latest hekate, to avoid install issues, but that doesn't seem to change anything.

>>542554386
Neither Atmosphere nor GBAtemp support piracy out of the box.

>>542554386
I just did the guide in the past in, installed tinfoil, sig patches and a SYs-patch or whatever from the same GBA temp thread and got it running

>>542555282
https://gbatemp.net/threads/sigpatches-for-atmosphere-hekate-fss0-fusee-package3.571543/page-275#post-10692213

Are these the latest sig patches? I can't find more recent.

Which guide, if I might ask? I'm unfamiliar with syspatch, and heard tell that tinwoo is the current installer to use.

Tinwoo is the top image, failing before it even installs.

DBI gets it installed, but refuses to run due to corrupt data. I downloaded the latest sig patches from said link and plopped them on the root of my SD card. What am I missing?

>>542554335
good thing I never burned fuses past 6.X

I'm in the same boat

Hey, I just rescued my old 3DS from a closet. Thought it was lost for years. It boots into EmuNAND 11.0.0-33U with Luma v9.1. I want to move from my current 32GB microSD to a 128GB one, but I’m a bit lost on the best path.

Should I just update Luma to the latest and migrate, or wipe everything and redo the whole CFW setup on the new microSD from scratch? I barely remember how any of this worked. I don’t have anything important on the 32GB card, so I’m fine with formatting and starting fresh. Ideally I want the 128GB to be my main card.

What do you recommend?

Anyone get the DLC working?

No other issues here, Gen 1 v1 switch 20.5.x, 1.0.1 update installed. Game runs fine.

What's the issue?

>>542565876
If you don't care about stuff just follow the guide from scratch with your new sd card, maybe backup your saves beforehand and add them afterwards

>>542564336

After two days, i've figured it out. NSP, NSZ, XCI, doesn't matter.

sigpatches are not currently up to date in a way that allows for the installation of ZA. Head over to the gbatemp thread, what you need to do is fully uninstall sigpatches, and install sys-patch instead.

From there, a DBI install will run properly, rather than corrupting.

sys-patch wins again
>>542567893
thx foir the tip

>Hacked OG Xbox
Good times. My first hacked console was an Xbox. Me and my best friend used to sit around playing old arcade beat em ups for hours on end and it is a big part of how I got so into retro gaming. I should pull it out and see if the old thing still works.
I really need to hack my 360 now that that is less of a chore but I only have one flash drive and I am using it for other stuff.
>>542524919
It had a lot of really good RPGs and side scrolling action games. At this point it makes more sense to hack a Vita instead though.

>>542570204
>I should pull it out and see if the old thing still works.
the clock capacitor said hello

>>542567893
I actually did a more clean install of sigpatches and sys-patch and it just worked this time although I'm not even sure if I got sys-patch working properly. Maybe the Switch just also needed a restart, either way even a dummy like me got it booted.

I've tried 3 sources for Pokemon Legends ZA and they all say "failed to install"

Is there actually a working leak out? Or do I need to finally update my switch just to install things?

>>542572684
What firmware is your Switch currently on? I wanted to try SMG+2 and was previously on 19.0.1. That failed to install those two. PLZA is currently running on 20.1.1

Also see >>541111874
The game finally leaked there on Sunday.

>>542573324
I can't even tell my switch firmware. Even though I don't think I ever connected to internet, it somehow hit me with a "your switch is ready to install" message, and now bugs me to update every time I boot up a game.

I figured I would just update the damn console to get ready for Metroid Prime 4, but all of the guides are still set to 20.4.0

>>542574390
I'm assuming the "switch is ready to install" message hides your firmware because I can't find my firmware version anywhere in the system settings.

>>542557158
For me, I was unable to install on an outdated 18.x.x (got the base nsp from the gofile link in this thread). Updated to 20.1.1 using the OP pastebin, was able to install with Awoo but couldn't boot. I copy/pasted the whole folder from the post you linked and the game boots.

>update switch firmware to 20.5
>battery drains to 1% from full overnight
What the fuck man, this was worse than when I last updated which was on 16.0

>>542574390
I had this issue before. Didn't wanna update and went into maintenance mode.
This link will give you more info.

i feel for it too, just keep it in airplane mode

I just updated my firmware to the latest, it boots well, but only SOME games won't boot anymore. Most games are fine, but random games won't boot anymore like "lego starwars the skywalker saga"

I'm assuming this particular problem is in this thread somewhere, right?

Can I just say I feel like this homebrew community seems to have diverged to the point I can't keep up? Updates used to be simple, but people seem to be arguing about sigpatches over syspatches, and installing from DBI vs some other one, and booting from hekate vs the other thing, and "you're an idiot if you still use THAT!"

I hope this is the last firmware update I ever have to do. After the next rhythm heaven comes out, I'm never connecting my switch to wifi again.

>>542584917
The thing is we try to give you tips based on what we've already tested to work flawlessly, and yet you refuse to do that and still use something else (not you but generally).
For your problem, try this >>541111874
Apparently for the latest update sys-patch seems to work best, so go with that instead of sigpatches. These are interchangeable, sort of, but one may be updated first before the other.

>>542585332
I saw that post, but I guess I'll start tackling it.

Problem is, I don't even know what half of those abbreviations are. And the older abbreviations I do recognize I will have to brush up on because I guess it's been almost a year since I updated.

Before I get started, am I going to be fucked since I already updated the switch's firmware? I know you're supposed to do that last, but I'm guessing I can just skip the daybreak step.

>>542585601
just google whatever is written there, it'll be the first result

nah you won't have to update it again if you're on the latest, but do update everything else in that order

I'll hack a switch 2D when they sell those for like 80 bucks

Yeah, having to delete them every time is annoying. I don't update often so it isn't a big deal for me but it is annoying when I do.

>only owns a JB PS3, JB 3DS, JB Switch
You should be content with that desu. There aren't that many interesting games on PS4, and even then some of them had a previous gen release. You could make do with a PS3, a handheld and an adequate gaming PC.

I've read that you can go online with a jailbroken PS3 too, but that you have to take the necessary precautions to not get banned. Even then you can unban your console.

I don't know how active PS3 servers are for games, nor if connecting to a lobby will rape your network like with COD games. Probably would've been a more enticing option even 6 years ago. I remember playing BO2 semi-regularly back then. We really don't know what we have until we lose it...

reading about switch running hot and churning through the battery if you leave wifi on while on the last few firmwares, but i always had this issue since early 2018 (and what led me to adopt airplane mode at all times, since i hacked it a few months after that and never used online on it), what gives?

>>542760427
This was an issue in older firmwares too, on and off. Part of it is probably that many of the switches are now 5+ years old so the batteries are degraded to begin with.

almendras

How big a deal is this stuff about battery drain and overheating, I sort of want to play the new pokemon but it's not worth updating just for that if it really does fuck up your system

>>542787597
If you don't turn on airplane mode, it'll drain the battery faster and be a bit warmer even in sleep mode. Even docked, it will be a bit warmer even in sleep.
>I sort of want to play the new pokemon but it's not worth updating
There's some homebrew you can use to backport games, an anon has been shilling it for free in the last few threads.

I'll need to keep playing it to see if it actually works, but I downgraded the new pokemon game and it seems to be working on 18.0. Pretty neat, I wonder if that will work every time.

Was squirrel.exe ever replaced with something newer? Because tools like SAK cannot create working hybrid xci from basegame, update & dlc on newer titles from the past few months, they simply do not show up in emulators and when they accidentally do, they don't even work. The older games can be shaped like this no problem. I suppose its a miracle we got this much mileage out of NUT to begin with.
All this fucking around just to avoid a pointless nsp install.

A friend on a tcg group said the switch 2 cart works on switch 1. Chat is this real? Can anything usefull be extracted from it?

>>542915783
every "Switch 2 Edition" does that, and it just boots the game in its switch 1 form

>>542916976
ok so the only games that do not run on switch 1 are exclusives? Saying it now sounds obvious but I thought there were specific versions for switch 1 and 2, even for games that run on both and you would have to get separate carts for each

>>542918310
I think they include a switch 2 patch that only the switch 2 can see.

>>542918310
that's right, and even though that means running switch 2 carts on an hacked switch 1 is possible the switch 2 part of them is still encrypted separately so, afaik, it can't be accessed yet. As i said, it's just like putting a switch 1 cart in there, even for hacked systems

>>542918727
>>542918743
well that just sucks but cool I guess for people who buy games

>>542922234
Good news is there aren't many of them. You could snap up the ones you want to play now and get most of your money back if/when we ever get a hack.
