    Homebrew WIP [Official] switch-lan-play

    I was meaning more like this: Custom sysmodule catches the attempt to put the device into local wireless mode. Presents a virtual interface instead. The game works exclusively with the virtual interface, not the real wifi chip. The virtual interface accepts the datagrams from the game, and...

    Homebrew WIP [Official] switch-lan-play

    Ninty is known to use nonstandard protocols for local "wireless" play. Be that as it may, it is just datagrams in the end. Perhaps these could be piped over PPP encapsulation?

    Homebrew WIP [Official] switch-lan-play

    I should try running that on my zsun. (its small, and can be powered right off the switch's usb-C port. might also try running it on the travel modem injector dongle. Network services were one of the things that were possible perks of ownership, afterall.)

    Homebrew WIP [Official] switch-lan-play

    Ad-hoc wifi (if it follows normal standards) is just a step below putting the device in AP mode. Once a connection has passed handshake, it sets up a minimalist network segment that acts the same as any other, just that the adhoc host does limited dhcp, and routing is not normally a thing. It...

    Homebrew WIP [Official] switch-lan-play

    I dont have a second switch to collect wire traffic from ninty's servers from, but the solution people really want is more like pvpgn, and less like a big vpn. (that is to say, emulates match making and pals, by emulating a ninty server) Don't get me wrong, this is a neat feature, but not...

    Hacking Question Switch not loading when using TegraSmash

    It's possible that the battery has depleted as well. May need to sit on the charger, THEN do the 12sec power hold, so that the tegra's emergency charging logic engages enough to power on the switch later. (like, 3 hours later.)

    Hacking Suggestion we need a way to unbanned

    Building our own matchplay service seems the most tractable long-term. See also, PvPGN (aka, BNETd, and the absolute purple cow Blizzard had (has) over it.) Nintendo would likewise have an absolute purple cow over any emulation of their online service offering, and would have their nazgul at...

    Hacking Suggestion we need a way to unbanned

    The use of something like Emunand does not really make sense in this capacity. At BEST, you are playing a losing game of cat and mouse with Ninty, since using a foriegn console cert is going to also require hacked security engines, and all that-- which would be much easier for Ninty to test for...

    Hacking Atmosphere-NX - Custom Firmware in development by SciresM

    Depending on what device classes they make the switch support, when running as a gadget, this could still be very useful. "Oh, you wants to put stuff onto the switch without shutting it off? M'kay-- just plug it in and use it as mass storage! What's that? You want a highspeed memory...

    Hacking Suggestion we need a way to unbanned

    No, As has been stated many times, what a "Ban" is, is being added to a blacklist file stored on nintendo's server farm. To "Unbanned!" your console, your console's unique ID would have to be removed from that blacklist. So, unless you decide that you are going to graduate from "I only hack my...

    Homebrew RELEASE NES ONLINE Game Injector

    Neat. Wondering when Ninty is going to release more system emulators. (I was quite sad that their n64 emulator for Wii/WiiU could not handle >32mb rom images, like Concker.) A wrapper application for making home-brewed "500-in-one" cartridges, with suitable support for large roms in the...

    Hardware Switch NAND upgrade

    I originally wrote a hairbrained idea to try to get the tegra to boot an alternative boot loader by letting it read a legit boot0 then bankswitching the NAND while it did the signature check, but from reading the SDK for the tegra (as concerns the boot process), it sounds like the BTC is read...

    Hardware Switch NAND upgrade

    @ OP What I really want to see, is a switch nand module, loaded with a Push-Push style microSD card slot. eMMC is an offshoot of MMC, which is the progenitor of SD. Theoretically, an SD Spec card should be able to handle all the same commands an eMMC module would. (just be more "fragile" in...

    Hardware How do I cover scratches on the back of the console?

    IIRC, it is anodized aluminum and black ABS that the switch's chasis is made from. Anodized aluminum is "theoretically" fixable with a steady hand, a graphite cathode, and a solution of dilute sulfuric and boric acids--- but I would not recommend. (needs high voltages, needs a clean area to...

    Hacking how can I trick switch that i am are in japan?

    Japanese titles work just fine. I wanted the more recent monster hunter. Did not realize that monster hunter generations was the US release of monster hunter XX. Foolish me, I grabbed XX, and installed it. That is straight up the japanese regionalization version of the title. It installed...
