    Hacking Emulation Gaming Homebrew Do NSP forwarders break your homebrew?

    I've been to a modding discord and they keep insisting that NSP Forwarders break your switch/homebrew/atmosphere without really specifying how so. They also say it will get the console banned. Can someone explain this more in depth? Is this even true?

    How do you feel about the Switch 2 UI?

    Well, I wouldn't be, that's why there used to be this thing called choice. And once again, a a menu can be fast and good looking.

    How do you feel about the Switch 2 UI?

    Consoles today are not just "turn on and start a game". They provide you services, digital games that you can't insert into cardridge slot, switch online, eshop, even system settings. These things require a menu to facilitate these things, therefore the UI and navigation is integral part of the...

    How do you feel about the Switch 2 UI?

    Who cares about presentation, fun, artistic design, charm and good memories for the future. It's just for playing games. Don't think, just play games, reject novelty, consume

    Where did people get this idea that gaming has to be cheap and affordable to everybody?

    Gaming is escapism. It should provide you fun and relief. Yes, devs should be compensated for their work, but have some limits. I doubt Nintendo employees and their families are going hungry. If buying a single game becomes a major financial decision and may require considerable compromises in...

    How do you feel about the Switch 2 UI?

    Uninspired, plain, boring, soulless, sterile, no personality, zero style, unexciting, feels like government issued console, bad, just bad, all for 450$.

    Launching Wii Games Boots CD Drive

    Update: I tested an SD card on 2 consoles. My main one works just fine - WiiFlow plays Wii games. Not so much on the second one - launching wii games just boots to disc drive. What could be wrong?

    Gaming Unpopular Opinion: Switch 2 is Odd and Boring

    Now that it was just inveiled... Probably nobody would agree with me, but I just find entire Switch 2 situation a bit disappointing. I know people called it Switch 2 out of simplicity that the community used to refer to Nintendo console of uncertain name, and never actually expected Nintendo...

    PS1 Emulation on OLD 2DS?

    Yes, I have new 2DSXL. Yes, I know I am shooting myself in the foot here, but dammit, I like O2DS the most for its shape. Is there any way maximize performance on O2/3DS? I've got the game in .pbp format, but still they are quite slow.

    Launching Wii Games Boots CD Drive

    No, the card has been working just fine, I could transfer stuff in and out, and play normally, even wii up to a point. I haven't touched the lock, I tried the syscheck, not sure if it even installed properly, it write protected now. How did that happen

    Launching Wii Games Boots CD Drive

    wtf the card is now write protected.. I ran the syscheck app, but it didn't have any graphics in the HB menu. It booted me to hackmii menu, not sure if that's what's supposed to happen so I quit it. Put the SD card back into laptop, now it's write protected. Yes, I am flipping the lock switch...

    Launching Wii Games Boots CD Drive

    I don't believe I've used this program. I have latest version of wiiflow, just updated from the link worm sent me. I also just tried launching from the wiiflow's fire browser, it still boots the disc.

    Launching Wii Games Boots CD Drive

    Hello. I'm using WiiFlow, and I cannot launch Wii games, whenever I launch one, it will just try to boot a CD Drive. Gamecube games work fine. The games are in wbfs folders in the root of the SD card. Inside there are folders named after the games and each has game.wbfs inside. The games DID...

    Emulation Any Frontend for 3DS?

    I assume there's not but I'll ask anyway. Is there any modest frontend for retro games on 3DS? So the games have at least covers, and maybe background. Raw Retroarch is very ugly and not fun to use.

    ROM Hack [Request] Luigi's Mansion 1 Cheat Plugin

    Is there a way to lock Luigi's horizontal position? Even with X3 speed Luigi will fall through the floor when going through walls, the only feasible way is to use doors.
