    Nintendo says server breached, no data lost

    If they didn't want to attack them, though, then why did they hack them?

    Homebrew Emulators or Virtual Console?

    Well, the only issues I'm having is mostly focused upon VBA. Mainly the default sizing is too big for my screen (which I fixed), there's some audio skips, and trying to turn the Wii off with the emulator running just turns off the remote. Only one problem with FCEU is mainly that the sprite for...

    Homebrew Emulators or Virtual Console?

    This thought came to mind recently after being indecisive on what to spend 1000 Wii points on. Is there any differences between the VC versions of the games, versus the same game in ROM form? I was planning on doing this for Genesis games (mainly because Genesis Plus keeps ticking me off), but...

    Misc Mario Kart Wii Issues

    I doubt this is the case. I have 2 Wiis in my house (one for me, and the other for my sister, who mostly uses it for Netflix). Me and her watched different things on Netflix on our Wiis at the same time, and the only ill effect that occured was the modem's signal was knocked out one night. Most...

    Hacking 3DS Bricking Rumor

    As mentioned earlier with the PS3, it is illegal for a company to release code that can potentially damage their product. Such code could mistake a legit game for a pirated copy, or the consumer could mistakenly play a bootleg copy. If the hardware developer is aware of this code, then THEY are...

    Hacking Blocked sd?

    By the looks of it, it's a broken SD slot. Maybe, since you didn't install HBC yet (since you couldn't get the installer to load), and you're still under warranty, you could get Nintendo to fix it.

    Are you sure the SD card isn't locked?

    Gaming Virtual Console Question

    Then what's stopping Nintendo from releasing it, since they own the majority of the license? Come to think of it, how come they've yet to make a remake of the CDi games they leased?

    Hacking Nintendo executive insulted hackers....

    As seen in the latest updates, Nintendo's mostly worried about ISOs and ROMs. If they would develop a better DRM, they wouldn't HAVE to worry about pirates. They shouldn't also have to guilt-trip the homebrew community and, with the DSi's latest firmware, penalize them. Looking at the homebrew...

    Homebrew Emulators VS Virtual Console?

    Yeah, I'd like to see Wii64 fully functional any time soon. I want to play Castlevania 64, Banjo-Kazooie, or Donkey Kong 64 soon, and Nintendo doesn't seem like they're going to release the latter 2, and Konami shuns ALL of their 3D Castlevanias.

    Hacking Nintendo executive insulted hackers....

    The only way Nintendo can combat piracy is if they make a console that forbids external methods to import data, or not use internal flash memory (IE, everything before the Gamecube). We all saw how quickly the PSP was hacked, and I could imagine Sony's face when they heard "Avast, ye swabs! We...

    Homebrew Emulators VS Virtual Console?

    Well, SM64 and Zombie Panic are on the SD card. I use a 4GB SDHC for both homebrew and spare VC/WW storage, and they are official channels of VC/WW. Maybe that has a factor in the freezing?

    Homebrew Emulators VS Virtual Console?

    Lately, I've been getting a bit bored with the emulators (Except VBA GX, except it's constantly crashing now). Other than the advantages to having the emulators (save states, cheats, bigger library), are there any advantages to having the VC versions? I know with the VC games, I've been having...

    Gaming Virtual Console Question

    Even though Donkey Kong 64 is owned by Rare, Donkey Kong itself is owned by Nintendo. Anyone wanna explain THAT license issue?

    Hacking IOS236 Installer v3

    Is it on 4.3? If it is, 4.3's designed to shut off the Wii's input modes (leading to the error occuring) whenever someone tries to install/patch an IOS without a game.
