Edited to say 5.0.x Cause I was apparently still on 5.0.1 but all my homebrew still works after I updated

credit to the people who developed these homebrew applications, we all appreciate your work

IF ANYONE WANTS TO HAVE ME ADD THINGS THAT WORK ON OTHER FIRMWARES ILL HAPPILY DO SO AS LONG AS SOMEONE TELLS ME IF IT WORKS OR NOT

So uhh. I compiled the latest libnx. The version included in the DevkitA64 download is from March. I then compiled 2048 with it, and it runs completely fine on my 5.0.2 Switch. Though I have no idea how to play it lol. So I wonder which other homebrew will work fine if they're just compiled with the latest libnx. I'll try testing other apps. It seemed kind of obvious to me but I haven't seen anyone talk about it so...

    I'm so pumped, NCAA football video game is back after a 10 year hiatus, coming to SeriesS/X, PS5 in July.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Wish they would let us play the NCAA football 14 on newer xbox, its one of the only games I love and own on disc still, that is not back compatible, bs.
  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @BigOnYa My dad recently bought a spare Series X off of me, got game pass, and saw Madden '24 on Game Pass, decided to try it out.

    ...He was a bit taken aback by the 60GB download size. Poor guy's still living in the 90s!

  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @K3Nv2 He was looking into consoles for his house anyway (for my younger siblings and himself) and I had a spare XSX and Switch I ended up selling him at pretty steep cuts. I would just give them to him, but I did buy them with the intent to sell them... and college is super expensive.
