    Hardware Mig Switch on Switch 2

    That is a very different claim from this: Your testing shows that the second claim is (for now) true, but unless you involved a fifth system and everybody got the hammer, the first claim is not yet verified. Still, the second claim is useful. I think this "used Switch games can get you...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Hoping for some advice on selling an unpatched launch Switch unit. Mostly I'm not sure how to price it because of a number of factors: - Original backplate eventually fell apart, replaced it with one of those eXtremeRate atomic purple deals. - Original battery was replaced with an HAC-003...

    ROM Hack [Release] .Net 3DS Toolkit - Extract and Repack 3DS ROMs (and CIAs)

    Awesome! Great tool by the way. I've wanted to unpack a few games and check out their guts before but found all the methods I came across too much trouble. Thanks for creating this.

    ROM Hack [Release] .Net 3DS Toolkit - Extract and Repack 3DS ROMs (and CIAs)

    When using the GUI, I had to change the file filter when I went to extract from a decrypted CIA to "All files (*.*)" because CIA files weren't included as a supported format.

    Gaming Has anyone gotten banned from playing Pokemon Moon online?

    Neverminding the possibility that people want to try before they buy, want to play during the launch rush but maybe can't afford a copy just yet, etc. etc., the pirated copy was available well in advance of a legitimate one for the vast majority of people, and it's not hard to imagine some...

    Gaming Has anyone gotten banned from playing Pokemon Moon online?

    It should be pointed out that (as far as I'm aware) bans went out in two separate waves: the first prior to the game's actual release, and the second the day after. As far as I know, people in both bans waves were taking part in the same activities (GTS, Wonder Trade, etc.), so it does beg the...

    ROM Hack [Release] AGB_FIRM Signature Patcher + GBA ROM Converter

    I'm trying to get Pokemon Ruby v1.2 to work but having some trouble; keep getting the white screen. I tried applying the clock patch through GBATA, but that didn't help. And I was looking over the post that was made about fixing saves for all the Gen 3 games, but when I go looking for the string...

    ROM Hack [Release] AGB_FIRM Signature Patcher + GBA ROM Converter

    No, I'm saying that when I use RxTools as my CFW and try to run one of the GBA VC titles it freezes up the way you described.

    ROM Hack [Release] AGB_FIRM Signature Patcher + GBA ROM Converter

    Forgive me if I'm completely out to lunch because I can't understand half of the technical details of all this crap, but I was under the impression that RxTools had to be working in Pasta mode to play these games. I'm not using an emuNAND which (for reasons I don't understand) seems to make it...

    ROM Hack [Release] AGB_FIRM Signature Patcher + GBA ROM Converter

    I see you installed the patched AGB_FIRM on sysNAND using Pasta mode, but did you then run the game in Pasta mode?

    ROM Hack [Release] AGB_FIRM Signature Patcher + GBA ROM Converter

    My first attempt at doing this was Golden Sun and that worked swimmingly. Then I tried Super Mario Advance. The first one. US version. After uninstalling, reinstalling, repacking and then reinstalling, I'm still being told the save data is corrupt. Am I missing something? I loaded the ROM into...

    Misc Has anyone attempted to abuse the Nintendo Zone streetpass relay?

    I had a similar headache to this because of the disparity in information between the main dd-wrt website, the wiki, and the forums. If you're using the 21061 build, you might give this a try: 1. Revert to stock firmware just to be safe (make sure you do the 30-30-30 just as instructed), as...

    Misc Has anyone attempted to abuse the Nintendo Zone streetpass relay?

    Huh. Alright, I'll give that a try then. My router has a Broadcom chip. The wireless repeater bridge works okay I guess, but the problem is that any time I make a change to the configuration on the dd-wrt router, the wireless network in my house hiccups on everyone, so I'm going to try just...

    Misc Has anyone attempted to abuse the Nintendo Zone streetpass relay?

    Well that explains a lot. I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out what was going on yesterday while I was working on this. Now I have my answer: the Bestbuy SSID just wasn't that common. That's both a relief and kind of aggravating. But at least we have an answer now.
