None of these are mine, but just looking through my dev menu:
  • 0x2FF - BigBlueMenu (might be the same as official dev menu)
  • 0xF69F - ftbrony
  • 0xF0023 - JezzBall 3D

Is there a specific format for the UniqueID?
Does official releases follow a specific layout?
maybe in binary, like : gameID, developer, publisher, region, version, etc.?

That would help to prevent using an existing official UniqueID and replace an eshop bought retail game.
That would also provide a rule for homebrew ID we can use.

http://3dbrew.org/wiki/Title_list:
TitleID Structure: 0xCCCCABCDLLLLLLRR

LLLLLL is the UniqueID (so we have 16.777.216 different UniqueIDs).
Official UniqueID can be viewed through BigRedMenu but i don't know if the same UniqueID can be installed on two different mediatypes (maybe yes).

p.s. Jezzball 3D seems to use the same UniqueID as QuickReboot...

Thanks for that link
so the UniqueID is in fact the TitleID "ID4" as we called it on Wii, but now uses ID3.
except now it doesn't follow ASCII model for gametype/region, all hex values can be used.

is it better to use "prototype" range for homebrew? (no gift animation, and probably no retail game using it)
unless some cia require the correct flag (application for cia managers, etc.)

Prototype Flag are used by Nintendo SDK tools (like devMenu). I don't know if there are limitations on what services can be accessed by these CIAs.

By the way, some of these are already used by Nintendo. In general, the 0x300-0x16XX range is already in-use. (It's only a matter of time until 0x19XX is reached, too)

Specifically, I can see...
0x1029 Picross e3
0x1330 Safari Quest
0x1331 Blue Exorcist Manga vol.2
0x1336 Blue Exorcist Manga vol.6
0x1337 LBX Manga vol.1
0x1338 LBX Manga vol.2
0x1339 Beyblade Shogun Steel 1

0x1242 will have been assigned too.

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
