    Hacking [QUESTION] Change the title ID of a game

    Yanu seems to have this function. I'm not sure what the minimum amount of change you can apply to a game along with this, or whether making a game Skyline-compatible breaks compatibility with any other platform, but it might be worth a look.

    Nintendo announces plans to discontinue Nintendo Switch line in Europe next year, outlines upcoming hardware changes for other devices

    If you only need to pack the components in, never to be seen again, they can be arranged in a way that maximises space for the battery. If the user needs to be able to change the battery, it needs to be next to the case, and you need extra hinges, screw posts &c., and probably extra casing to...

    Hardware Dunno if this Circle Pad replacement module is for the New 3DS normal size or the XL version

    OP hasn't installed the new parts yet - you can see the original, slightly wider, stick cap under the darker grey C-shape that slots into the 3DS's case. When it's installed, it won't stick up. IIRC the stick modules are the same, but the original 3DS's cap was slightly wider - the rubber on...

    How to downgrade SDK version of an update?

    Hmm… I had no problem running FB3 on HOS 18? 19? Is this a recent update? You could try using a different installer.

    Anyone know how I could increase FPS on this game?

    LS can be used with non-Steam games - you press the scaling button then switch to the window you want to scale. You can even run it without opening Steam. NB frame generation is like the ‘motion smoothing’ option on TVs - it won’t make the game more responsive, as the program is still only...

    Anyone know how I could increase FPS on this game?

    https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Nox says the game is limited to 30 FPS. It also links to some utilities that may improve compatibility on newer Windowses. If it's stuttering, there are things you can check in general: Are you running something else that's resource-intensive (could be your...

    Other Controller as Wiimote?

    You could use a real Wiimote. Or the abomination I'm using in my profile picture - InterWorks Retro Classic Controller Pro U or some combination of those words. It can act as a Wiimote (either upright or sideways like the NES controller) or a Wii Classic Controller. Beware of getting the version...

    Other Controller as Wiimote?

    We can simulate Wiimotes in (v)Wii with DualShock 3 / 4 controllers using Fakemote. The output from Wiimotes is significantly different from a standard controller (accelerometers, IR pointer, gyros from WiiMotion+), so it's not very surprising that it's a different, possibly harder, job to spoof...

    Stereogram Thread

    This is the first time I have ever got one of these to work! I had not realised that the apparently repeating pattern was not supposed to disappear, but to be wrapped around the 3D scene. TBH I thought they were a bit of a scam - there's no way that these splodges could possibly resolve into a...

    Hello, Im looking for new switch games to play

    Yeah, loads. What have you already played? Without some context, it's going to be difficult to recommend something relevant. DekuDeals can alert you when a game you want goes on sale. Else, eBay or local second-hand shops (Trade & Play in Birkenhead is good if you happen to live near Liverpool...

    But after 360° you're facing it again? You would then need to back away.

    Gaming Hello, Does anyone know a good switch dock other than that huge thing that comes with nintendo

    I got my v1 Switch cheap because the dock was broken. I bought a GuliKit one that is very compact and provides one USB-A port for peripherals as well as the USB-C for power and the HDMI out. No problems in the years since. And being open-face is handy for accessing the touchscreen when setting...

    Hardware TMR joycon stick tension - I will do science to it!

    I still use original joycon in Ring Fit Adventure, and if they happen to be attached to charge when I need to use the Switch handheld (installing games, updating homebrew) rather than docked. Got fed up with both the original sticks and the free set of generic white sticks that they sent me with...
