    So sales are down for Nintendo, are they?

    The number of good games had not decreased. The number of bad games has increased. If you ignore the bad games, the DS is on par with the other systems. Are you saying that you aren't smart enough to decide what is a good game? Anyway, back in the NES days, publishers were allowed to publish...

    3DS Dev play, nintendo gonna be mad

    All right! We have pictures of ANOTHER 3DS dev kit! That is soooo awesome. You know what would help compromise the security of the 3DS faster? MOAR PICTURES OF 3DS DEV KIT!!11!!! Honestly, woooo, The home menu of a dev 3DS. The mind reels at the sheer uselessness of this topic.

    Hardware can 3D be displayed when holding the system sideways?

    I don't think that's right. The 3DS uses an LCD screen to create a parallax barrier. The depth slider works by changing the thickness of the bars of the transparent LCD. So-3DS color LCD--Parallax LCD---Plastic cover,

    I take back everything I said bad about Gnome3 and Shell

    What were you using before? KDE, or one of the stranger ones?

    ROM Hack has anyone notice that ds can have an internal modchip?

    I think these were created by MashMods.com(long dead). They do exactly what they say the will do. However, 10 tiny wires to solder is hardly worth the minor gain. I remember when these were new. I feel I am becoming a bit of a dinosaur, alas. As for modchips for the DSi, not practical for...

    Nintendo DS Debug Dev Unit Cart

    I would like to say that 200USD is "chump change" when it comes to development stuff. I mean to say that just because the price is at 200 does not mean that somebody special will get it. An RVT-H wii dev unit sells for around 1,500 - 2,000USD. An rvt-r sells for 500-1000, depending. An...

    3DS scene releases?

    One mod said, a few weeks ago, that "GBATemp is not a piracy site." We all know this is shit. This bull-shittyness of this statement is exemplified by the fact that GBATemp admins are not adding 3DS games to the list. If GBATemp is not a piracy site, why are you refusing to add legitimately...

    GCN Getting a gamecube to load backups?

    Getting an unmodified GC to play pirate games is hard. It has a sensitive laser and tight security. Soldering a XenoGC to the DVD drive, then using an SD gecko to launch games via a DVD with swiss burned to it is going to be the cheapest. About 10-20USD Buying a Qoob or ViperGC is going to be...

    Apple Could Buy The Mobile Industry

    Actually, anybody that's technically inclined would buy neither an android or an apple. Apple is evil. Google is, too. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/12/15/st...n_on_chrome_os/ One evil branch makes the whole tree evil. Chrome is not part of android, but close enough. Honestly, I doubt that...

    Wii U will not play DVD and Blu Ray movies

    If Nintendo had not left DVD reading functionality in the Wii, I doubt homebrew would have ever supported it. Have you read ANY of the articles on HackMii? The wii had functionality that allowed it to read dvds as long as a channel was launched. Or something like that. It has been a while. Of...

    Wii U will not play DVD and Blu Ray movies

    I don't think that cutting down functionality is any form of Anti-Piracy. It's simply cost cutting. However, look the dreamcast. The dreamcast could play music CDs. An exploit was found that allowed a disc to be read as an audio CD, but booted as a game. The Dreamcast does NOT require a modchip...

    GCN Help with SDload through AR 1.14

    Newer versions of AR can't use the SD load hack. I think you have to buy a v.1.08 disc to use this hack. Datel blocked it so that you would be forced to buy the SDML.

    EverDrive 64 is out (N64 flash cart)

    $99 is crazy cheap! That is really an amazing price. The next cheapest is $199. GBATempers must just be used to crappy DS flashcarts. Yeah, they're cheap, but they don't have nearly the features of a real flashcart solution. I would say the DS has just caught up with the rest of the cartridge...

    Best Operating System?

    Uhh... sudo apt-get install firefox I'm not really sure what your point was. Installing programs that are already in the repo is easy. No searching for exe's. No sifting through "Free trial" or "Shareware" crap. If it's not in to repo, there is probably a .deb, or at least an install.sh (Like...

    Rare close-up shots of the Wii U

    I would have tried to snatch the WiiU and run. It would be worth a few months in prison to just try.
