Translated by GoogleDSi to see success in the HelloWorld. Considering all the way ANO. Do you have a real way to try to
It was not me, so I moved. But the public should wait and measures
'd Hate to MAJIKON epidemic. To buy the console for now. ... Do you sell?
I hope to CFW, FW is a bad sign? Jk? What I know is PSP.

All I get from that is Hello World, wait, and CFW. If anyone can supply a real translation that would be great.

We'll see if Nintendo has better luck outrunning the hackers than Sony.

Rough Translation

He says that he borrowed his friends one and was able to perform the hack.
He didn't say how he did it, but says that he did the the same way every thought it might be able to be done...
He also says something about not being sure if he wants to disclose how he did it due to a boom...

He says that the DSi's are all sold out now in Japan. He wants to buy his own to do further testing to make sure the hack works on all DSi's.

He mentions creating a custom firmware

END


WOW

Glad it didn't take too long
And also glad I picked up one on release day

Everyone who has been saying bad things about it hasn't played around with one.
It's a very cool little machine....

I enjoy how quickly systems can be flipped.

But more than that, i love how people bitch when a new system comes out how "Its impossible to hack, i'll never buy it!!!1" when 5 days later, bam. Hax0r'd.

Whoever thinks that needs to get kicked, because in the pirates world, nothing is unhackable. Obviously.

good to see it hacked so soon. I think everyone knew it would be hacked sooner or later ... though ... maybe not like 3days soon LOL.

however, the price is still the biggest issue for me =(

He borrowed one from a friend?

He must have good friends.
I wouldn't lend it to anyone to try out some firmware hacks.
No matter how skillful that person in is.

Now, I'm curious to know if that was made using the SD port or with a flashcard/hardware hack..

I'm thinking a flashcard hack, but am hoping for an SD hack

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gonna check out the new Garfield looks like garbage
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty didn't you see the new garfield?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ah it's all animated I was hoping for some live action
