    Hacking Lawsuit in Japan. What is the probability ?

    Not that I'm some expert on Japanese law, but afaik this kind of law is akin to the ones that ban piracy; in other words, it's technically illegal, but it's almost certain that nothing will happen. Bottom line is, Nintendo isn't going to sue you. It's not worth their time or money to track down...

    Hacking Installing a DLC .nsp without game installed

    I don't know for sure if this would work, but you could try installing the game it's associated with, and then uninstalling said game. It's possible that it'll take the DLC with it.

    Hacking PSA: Reports of Fusee gelee patched units in the wild

    No. The flaw lies in the BootROM -- that is, the code that's loaded before anything else you turn the system on. This is read-only, and it's hard coded onto the Tegra CPU, so that a malicious program can't change it. It also means Nintendo can't change it, so the one your console comes with is...

    Hacking Question Payload loader for iOS?

    Stock iOS does support interfacing with USB devices. There are existing, officially supported frameworks for reading and writing to USB storage. It would probably need some tweaks to allow streaming executable data the way RCM requires, but nothing too grueling. You would definitely need a firm...

    Hacking Dev LaunchmyCraft Ported Lakka to the Switch

    It's a Linux distro, so it doesn't care about your firmware version. I wonder if "reboot to RCM" will support firmware beyond 1.0.0...

    Hacking Question Why the Nintendo consoles are always the first/only consoles hacked?

    Microsoft and Sony are both massive electronics companies working in multiple industries, and they both have LOADS of experience in constructing secure systems. Nintendo almost exclusively creates video games. They just don't have the experience or manpower to create an ultra secure system...

    Hacking Atmosphere-NX - Custom Firmware in development by SciresM

    Windows is starting to more fully support ARM-based desktop systems, even going so far as to provide 32-bit x86 emulation for apps. I don't think it's unreasonable to imagine that this could run on the Switch's Tegra processor. I still don't think we'll see it nearly as soon as Linux (if at...

    Hacking fail0verflow tease Linux on Switch

    I'm just dropping in my two cents. It's not like I'm going on a tirade about this, I just wanted to express that it upsets me. And now I have, and I don't intend to say much more about it.

    Hacking fail0verflow tease Linux on Switch

    Honestly though, I'm starting to get really ****ing tired of all these "Private" exploits. If you don't intend to use it personally, AND you don't intend to release it, then what good does it do anybody? Fail0verflow is doing no good for the community with the way they're currently operating...

    Hacking What are YOU hyped about?

    Emulators/VC Injection. Between the games natively available and the emulation capabilities, the Switch would be my PERFECT console. Imagine having Skyrim, Goldeneye, Spyro, and maybe even Wind Waker all on the same system, to play on the go or on your TV.....this is the stuff I dream of.

    Hacking [FAQ] eFuses

    It seems that a lot of people don't fully grasp the situation with eFuses. So, I figured I'd go ahead and write out an FAQ for them. Edit: Made some corrections. Q: eFuses? What? A: The Nintendo Switch contains things called eFuses that can be blown on command. The system checks on every boot...

    Hardware What's the whole eFuses thing?

    I'm extremely late here, and also not at all an expert, but I don't think it's completely impossible. If a low enough level exploit is found for a given fw version, then, hypothetically, we could have an updated emuNAND. SysNAND would boot properly using the real eFuse count. From sysNAND, we...

    Hacking R4 Wood loader plugin for DSTWO

    Should be able to, the "HC" only implies the capacity range.

    Homebrew Need a good name for an upcoming 3DS physics engine.

    Fractal. A shape with an infinite perimeter, indicating both geometry and unlimited expression. It's also got the letters C, T and R in it, but the R has been moved. It's breakin the rules a bit, kinda like the target demographic of the engine. Idk, I came up with this on the fly.

    Homebrew Is DS Homebrew Development is Harder than the 3DS ?

    Like I said, I've never tried doing it at all, personally - my flashcart gets the job done a lot easier (which I imagine is why there's so little development).

    Homebrew Is DS Homebrew Development is Harder than the 3DS ?

    I wouldn't consider a successful conversion if the app doesn't launch properly.

    Homebrew Question about Homepass

    No. The way homepass relays work is by simply temporarily storing all streetpass data that comes by, and then sending it to all the users in range who haven't passed the relay in the past eight hours. The streetpass data is stored locally by the relay, so the only way you could streetpass...

    Homebrew NTR Launcher - Bring back that classic DS boot screen for your DS games!

    Just out of curiosity, is the classic style splash screen taken from the original thing, or just recreated from scratch using the original assets?

    Homebrew Is DS Homebrew Development is Harder than the 3DS ?

    As of yet, there are very few DS(i) mode homebrew installable on the 3DS - the only two I can think of are that action replay alternative, and that launcher for blocked flashcarts. NDS games are made to executed exclusively from a cartridge. I'm not a developer, so I don't know how hard it is to...

    Hacking Best DS Flashcart?

    This is a very popular and reputable cart, and one that's been in widespread use since not long after the 3DS launch - I'd be very surprised if it had a time bomb. And no, neither cards trip anti-piracy protection on any known games.
