    Misc Animal Crossing NL NZone items via Homepass?

    Yeah, it seemed to work this time without trying to mess with the MAC, for some reason. Huh. Thanks for the help, guys.

    Misc Animal Crossing NL NZone items via Homepass?

    Yeah, my 3DS is always set to the US region. Has anyone successfully managed to get the items without visiting a Nintendo Zone spot? Just wondering.

    Misc Animal Crossing NL NZone items via Homepass?

    Nintendo has a new set of DLC for Animal Crossing New Leaf if you go to a Nintendo Zone, but I am currently out of the United States. Is there any way to use Homepass to fool the 3DS into thinking I am in a Nintendo Zone? I remember the original items worked just changing the SSID to Bestbuy...

    I did, in fact, had a fairly long conversation with him over email. One of the cables had a problem in the way it was assembled and pushed pin #5 down on the adapter - I managed to fix the adapter, but the cable itself seems not to be working. He said he will replace it. Frankly, I have been...

    Hacking Possible Fix for Y USB Cable Problem

    Like I said earlier, I can absolutely confirm that a powered USB hub works. It's what I have been using so far. It doesn't work without it. And it's a USB 3.0 drive as well.

    Hacking Possible Fix for Y USB Cable Problem

    Or, you know, you could do something even simpler like me, and connect the external hard drive to a powered USB hub that I had lying around from Rock Band and connect that to the Wii U. Works like a charm - using it with a USB 3.0 drive right now, since the end plug is backwards compatible with...

    I also prefer shorter cables - I actually got the Japanese white GameCube controllers (I think they were made with the Wii in mind) and they have longer cords than the American purple/orange/black models. For a device that is already strapped to a wireless dongle it would just get too messy.

    Hacking Gamecube to Classic Controller Converter 2 questions

    Huh, what do you know. I could swear I had done that and some other permutations of connections... but now it seems like it worked. I would still be interested in the adapters, though, because of the analog triggers. Edit: I think I know what I was doing wrong. I was disconnecting at the...

    I would actually be willing to get four. I actually ordered a couple from the guy you mentioned earlier, but each one of the two units he sent gave me a different problem: one had a bad connection and it damaged the pin on the adapter, and the other is giving out a crazy input as soon as I plug...
