After all that picofly discussion, i decided to search a bit more about modchips, and found out there is upgradable and flashable variants, one being significantly more expensive than the other. Didn't really find an explanation regarding the difference between those 2, and the seller also wasn't of help (as shown in the pic, lol)

Maybe he's saying one is the original chip. The elusive sx core but I don't believe it. Those are rare and aren't made anymore.

I bought the more expensive one because I have high hopes maybe it's just made better. Or maybe I'm just a stupid American and want to pay more. [emoji52]

Either way, mine came with sx firmware on it and I flashed it to .7.1 and it works much better now. It boots in .5 seconds as opposed to like 6 seconds with sx firmware. I also no longer need boot.dat

They are both upgradable.

    @Psionic Roshambo, The Wii U gamepads are tied to the console's region, so its impossible to find a cheap gamepad that supports your model.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Unless you modify your system, of course, and remove the region check.

    @Xdqwerty can we discuss chrono trigger
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @Xdqwerty I like how the game had the middle ages 1000AD, the dark ages 600AD.It was great seeing the post robot apocalypse 2300 like Terminator and enter the matrix. some of mad max and fallout. 2300ad though it could had used more elements instead of just a generic ai uprising. It was a great idea for their judgement day to be 1999 Y2K.

    -great additions if they would have made an expansion or dlc in my opinion would be finding out humans trapped in a matrix -

    a follower having a cyborg character living tissue over metal endoskelleton like terminator, and the synths from fallout
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    4After Zeal fell it would have been good to see more ancient eras. Perhaps Sumeria based in one area, then Egypt based in another area, Greek based in another area, then roman based in another area before the middle ages.---------

    ----between 1000ad and 1999 is a big gap they should have had the age of revolution like the american and French Revolution

    then the cowboyy era in one area of map and the Industrial revolution/age of enlightmentthen a ww1 and ww2 and a cold war era
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    they could have added 75,000 bc like assassins creed. zeal was already establish in 12, 000 bc , soething before the kindom rose
