    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Yeah, I have USB magnifying camera. I can see some questionable solder joints, but soldering at this scale makes repair nigh impossible (at my skill and equipment level). I tried reflowing some of the solder to make better contact, but to no avail. At this point I think I have to cut my losses...

    So, I finished modding my switch lite. It was a little touch and go, but it ended up being a dead battery lol. I managed to reach the spacecraft-NX “NO BIN” screen, which makes sense, because I had an SD card inserted, but only with Nintendo stuff on it. Unfortunately, after fully charging my...

    Hacking Atmosphere-NX - Custom Firmware in development by SciresM

    I’m a developer taking some time off from work. Is there anyway I can contribute to the project? Not sure if it needs any help, but I have spare time and experience as a software dev.

    Emulation Emulators running on Nintendo Switch..

    Is the idea for loading android on a switch the same as it is for retroarch? Booting a cfw so you can load whatever you want? (Still brand new)

    I just want to call out how helpful you’ve been and how quick you are to answer all manner of question.

    Hi. I have a new (to me) switch lite that I factory reset with plans to mod for running cfw, retro gaming, etc. How deep into the setup process should I go? Leave it on language select and do the hardware mod? Set it up with a new dummy nintendo account? Log in with my own legit nintendo...

    What's your favourite falling-blocks puzzle game?

    When I thought of Columns, I immediately recalled Super Puzzle Fighter and decided that of the two, I preferred the latter. The jewels are just as pretty, if not more so, and the versus mode it's more fleshed out. Give it a try.

    What's your favourite falling-blocks puzzle game?

    This is a hard one, as it depends what I'm in the mood for. I think the top three I recall are Tetris (original computer or Gameboy or NES versions), Super Puzzle Fighter, or Lumines. I feel like each had a distinct rhythm or scratched a different itch.

    Sorry, one more quick question. Is it worth trying to seek out an SX Lite for modding, or does the HWFly Lite suffice? I remember reading about the differences between the two, one of them involving updating, but since I haven't had a chance to play with either yet, I didn't quite understand the...

    Diablo Immortal reportedly won't launch in Belgium and the Netherlands due to lootbox restrictions

    As a huge arpg fan with tens of thousands of hours in all the great arpgs from the past three decades, I completely forgot about this game's release. And I'm equal parts disheartened and not surprised by its outcome. At least we have other great arpgs carrying the torch (Grim Dawn, Path of...

    Old modder, new to this scene

    Hey all, I'm here because every few years I catch the emulation bug and want to see what the latest tech is for playing my old games on the go. Started playing back in the Coleco Vision & Atari days and have since dabbled in modding several systems: the PS1 and 2, a DS, Atari 2600, Ms. Pac-Man...

    Dipping my toes into the switch (lite, specifically) mod scene. I think I'm familiar with hardware side of things, but are there any good guides/tutorials for setting up the software (hekate and the like). Thanks!
