I bought sx pro this week and its working ok but I noticed something strange. When I powered off my device and then start it up in the other day I noticed the following
1- the nintendo device is hot as if it was on all night .
2- the battery is depleted ( if it was 70 % at night , the other day morning is about 20 or even less)
That was not happening to my device before buying the sx pro.
And before anyone say that you might not powered it off or it was in sleep mode , I'm very sure the device was off and not in sleep mode
Does anyone had the same problem with sx pro ?

It's a known side effect of having autorcm installed. The only way of completely powering off the console with autorcm installed is by holding the power button for like 12 seconds. Using the power off option will not fully power it off.

I tried to push the power button for 10 seconds and device was off and then again when I start it on after few hours the device was hot and the battery was depleted about 20 %

Hmm that's not normal at all. I can only recommend to try to stay on sleepmode as much as you can. The sleep mode is great on battery and doesn't use much. Also You have the option of uninstalling auto rcm on the sx menu.

Uninstall AutoRCM and just use sleep mode, My switch stays on the dock 95% of the time, i only have to crack out the jig and dongle if i have to power down to remove the SD card for any reason :)

It's because you have enabled auto rcm, when you turn the switch off with this enabled, the switch isn't really off - it's constantly trying to boot into recovery, if you have that enabled, just put the switch into standby mode instead and then the battery won't deplete as much, due to not trying to constantly boot into recovery.

then just always keep it charging when not using it

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
