Homebrew {Request} Can someone look into the FLOG Emulator? [Updated]

[Deleted-355425]

Tried this on a 2.2.0 console never been on the net and I can't trigger it but I'm probably doing it wrong

 

[V-Temp]

i tried for a good 10-15 mins to OPEN my switch, shit as if it has invisible screws.

You need a few different tools to open the thing, its a pain. I'd recommend watching a tear down before trying because there are a number of little things that you can accidentally break and brick the system. I was extremely meticulous when I went digging into mine to find that there's very little room for anything. I do not recall anything like a CMOS battery, and disconnecting the main battery unit did not reset anything when I had it back together. If it has a battery somewhere, its very well hidden and possibly not in plain view.

That being said, it must have some long-term low-power source hidden, I might try cracking my spare open again to see if I can find it later on.

I have a 2.3.0 console that's never been connected to the Internet and I can't get it to work.

You know what the sad thing about all this, Golf wasn't even that great of a game. People will tear apart their Switches now to mess with it so they can play such a basic game.

 

[ShiftaDeband]

Hm.... this is freaking bizarre.

1.0 systems are able to do it, but anything afterward isn't? I wonder what kind of changes have been made to the code since 1.0.

This is more about the mystery at this point, and a cool easter egg at that.

According to yellows8, one must find a way to remove a cache file on the Switch module, without connecting to the Wifi.

I fear that the cache file, once connected to Wifi, cannot be removed permanently.

Even if it stores some offset/reference permanently to disk, removing the battery should at least confuse/offset whatever's stored in that file(?)

I have a 2.3.0 console that's never been connected to the Internet and I can't get it to work.

I suppose there's also a possibility that after 1.0 the easter egg was made more obscure. Did you try letting the home screen dim first before trying the gesture? And also making sure nothing else was running on it.

No way, NES golf is great!! I like all the Nintendo/Mario golf games

 

[KardchCode]

That day when you become rich with selling screws to remove switch battery's, lol

Are you guys trying it in the "Arms" position kind of motion, not like, straight, but like the "Thumbs Up" position? Maybe you have to do it that way?

 

[Raverrevolution]

My Switch is still at 2.1.0. I'm sure it won't work, but I'll try it when I get home.

I tried it that way and no luck

 

[pwsincd]

I just don't believe thay the source is real, like we haven't actually seen it performed on a 1.0 console yet, heck the other day Plutoo was telling is that the X button was a trigger! Don't go tearing apart your switch yet.

 

[KardchCode]

I can see lot of people adding an event in Google calendar "switch golf day" 7/11

It's already on the Twitter feeds of yellows8, smea, shuffle2, Shiny Quagsire, qlutoo, and other tinkerers' Switches.

He said "may be"

 

[delete12345]

He said "may be"

No, I was referring to a full playthrough of Course 1. (actually, just 1 tee off)

 

[fedehda]

Well...

 

[Tsubakiandou]

keep in mind if you make it into news sites and this ends up fake you will be a living meme contrbutor to Flog.

There's pictures and videos of it running but absolutely no footage of the 'action' needed to load it on unhacked, retail units

 

[pwsincd]

For what it's worth, there are no NES Roms anywhere in the console's NAND/etc where flog could access them, even if you somehow managed to launch flog.

Anyway, OP's a liar, move on, nothing to see here.

this quote reads a little awkward , im not sure what to say , maybe this guy is right .. hmm the confusion !
