    Misc RTL819xCU homepass issues

    You probably need to run Macshift as Administrator. You should be able to do this by right clicking on you shortcut to Command Prompt and selecting "Run As Adiministrator". Then you can continue running Macshift with the appropriate parameters as normal. You will of course need to be logged in...

    Hardware 3DS XL Painting Concerns/Questions

    If you download and print out the template file I posted on a piece of regular paper, it should give you a fairly good guide on how to cut out the vinyl sticker to make a snug fit. Then you could just paint on the vinyl sticker at your leisure. Alternatively, you could buy printable vinyl...

    Hardware 3DS XL Painting Concerns/Questions

    Personally I would really advice against painting directly on your 3DS XL or any portable electronic device for that matter. First of all there is a small risk of actually messing up the paint job or even damaging the device. Secondly, it will probably void your warranty. Plus portable devices...

    Hardware Nintendo 3DS Power-A Headset Review

    The WiiU uses the standard 3.5 mm with 4 contact point plug so it should work fine. I would personally advice you to search for other Smart Phone Headsets instead though as the Nintendo 3DS Power Headset is not exactly a good value. Better yet, get a decent pair of PC Headsets instead and...

    Hardware Nintendo 3DS Power-A Headset Review

    I think what he is referring to is the fact that Beats by Dre is probably the most overpriced, overly colored headphone brands you can possibly buy. The general consensus from anybody with any semblance of discriminating taste for music and sound quality is that Beats by Dre is a brand...

    Hacking Forcing Gateway to not "Real-Time Save"?

    Haven't tried this myself as I have had no reason to prevent Gateway from saving games, but couldn't you just switch on the write protect on the SD Card to prevent Gateway from modifying the save file in the card?

    Hardware Nice headphones for gaming

    Actually there are plenty of headphones you can get with microphone support that you can use with the 3DS. Most of these are meant to be used with smart phones for making calls though, so you can't really expect the kind of quality you'd get with mid to high end headphones designed specifically...

    Hardware Nice headphones for gaming

    While I agree that the colored sound profile of the V-Moda Crossfades are nowhere near as bad as the Beats By Dre, they are still quite pronounced which I personally am not a fan of. I believe that headphones and speakers should be neutral, meaning that they should reproduce sound the way the...

    Hardware Nice headphones for gaming

    I personally use the Audio Technica M50. They are hands down the best headphones you can get for under $150. They are meant as professional studio monitors so they have a very neutral sound profile unlike the V-Moda ones that have been previously suggested which have a very colored profile with...

    Hardware 3DS XL extended battery AND circle pad pro?

    I replied to a very similar post before. I'll quote that reply here for you convenience. You can just go ahead and play with the battery pack hooked up to the 3DS charge port via the wire. You can leave the battery pack itself on a table nearby or perhaps beside you on your seat. You could...

    Hacking Homebrew Play Coins Generator

    Just saw this post on the MaxConsole Gateway forums and thought some people here would be interested. This will only work with Gateway at the moment, since only Gateway supports Homebrew.

    Hacking Gateway Omega Feedback

    I'm still getting this issue where trying to launch out of region games will require you to enter the Parental 4 Digit Code even if you disable game restrictions under Parental Restrictions. This is problematic as I want the Parental Code enabled to prevent accidental updates or purchases but...

    Misc online way for "local multplayer" ?

    There is a user over at MaxConsole forums that is working on getting local multiplayer working over the internet. It looks like it is a whole can of worms though so I wouldn't hold my breath for a stable release just yet. For those interested in the development process details, check out the...

    Hardware NNID, Miiverse, Club Nintendo and eShop 3DS questions.

    There are a couple of ways that you can get Netflix and Hulu on the 3DS working even if you don't reside in the USA or Canada. The more straight forward way is to hook your Wireless Router up to a US or Canada based VPN. This is the best solution since it should circumvent any region locking...

    Hardware Best battery extender/grip that allows CPP? (3DS)

    The replacement battery for the 3DS in the link below is rated at 2000 mAH. Given that this rating is accurate, this battery should give you a modest 35% boost in battery life over the stock 1300 mAH 3DS battery without adding any extra bulk...
