So I'm on 9.2.0 and AMS 0.10.3 and I'm trying to get emuiibo to work. I downloaded emuiibo 0.4 from the github here, and I'm quite confused about how to actually get this working. It says to "extract the contents of 'SdOut'" which flat-out doesn't exist, so that's not helpful. There is a contents folder with a '0100000000000352' directory under it, so I extracted that to "SD:/atmosphere/contents/". I rebooted the switch and have no idea how to activate or use this since there is no tutorial information on that page. There's supposed to be some mention of emuiibo on the Tesla menu apparently. There is not. There used to be a combo when I tried an older version, but apparently that's been removed? I have I generated an amiibo using the latest emutool released alongside the github release. I have placed it in the appropriate folders. I do not know how to activate this module and no documentation appears to exist on this that I can find. Can anyone help me?

So I googled and eventually found XorTroll's discord, then joined it. I'm searching around and I can't find that purported download. I even used the search function for "sdout" and all I found was people talking about it, but no actual download or post having the download.

I did ask for information on this and how to use it. I'd still like to receive that. it would be very helpful.

Now that I think about it, if there's some hidden update that apparently isn't worth posting on the github, why does the tutorial list "sdout" when it's not available on said github? This is a legit question. What am I missing?

It should be pinned in the emuiibo channel

So I found it in #chat-emuiibo after scrolling up a bunch. It seems to be working pretty darn well. It just takes a bit of time to work for each software, but then I can change the amiibo in real-time with Tesla. I got it to work for Zelda and Smash so far, so I think it's going to work pretty well across the board. It doesn't seem to be able to do anything in system-menus, but I imagine that's just a homebrew restriction.

This is honestly working better than I thought it would. Thanks for the Discord tip.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
