    Emulation Hardware 3DS emulation device in 2026: all my real 3ds are broken

    Quite shit. I'm cheap: about $50 is the most I'm willing to pay for a phone because they're all unsustainable junk, e-waste to be. Game phone is "Nokia" G100 with 4GB RAM, got the snapDragonBalls whatever chipset and octa-core something or other processor. (I use the quotes because it is some...

    Emulation Hardware 3DS emulation device in 2026: all my real 3ds are broken

    I give up. Everything's eventual as the great schlockmeister Steven King says. Eventually, the Thor will be $50 used. Then I'll get one. As for 3DS units, I imagine they will become "collectible" as more and more of them fall into disrepair and quality parts become scarce. Right now, the 3DS...

    Emulation Hardware 3DS emulation device in 2026: all my real 3ds are broken

    Yes, yes...I've seen the latest Anbernic rubbish: RG DS. It is can run DS games and 3DS games just choke and sputter unless all you want to play is Fire Emblem with all the animations turned off. I've tried azahar on all my phones and the performance is mediocre-to-poor but, more importantly, no...

    Where is the English version of DBI?

    Unfortunately, I find there are not a lot of choices for installers/rippers: in addition to being able to install/rip nsp, a good installer needs support for external drives with modern filesystems like exfat and ext4 (files larger than 4GB.) In my experience, DBI, Goldleaf, Sphaira all have...

    Bowser is retiring from Nintendo at the end of this year

    Big companies will always suck as long as they are feudally run. Might makes right. Fuck them all.

    Is it worth waiting for Switch 2 piracy?

    Hell No! I'll probably never buy a Switch 2. The Switch era was a turning point for me: I lost interest in all of N's franchise games because they're not getting better. The Switch Pokemon games were all gimmicks and bullshit; for the first time, I didn't want any Pokemon games in an entire...

    Custom BD-JB Cases

    I just use a CD jewel case from a local Office Depot/Staples store. They're always on sale because the store can't give them away. However, it would be fun to 2D print a cover paper image with Spyro The Dragon. It might be neat to ask some AI to draw me a BD-JB logo involving Spyro, but I'm...

    Gaming cozy grove strangely compelling

    Anybody like this game? I got it a while ago because it was cheap. It is supposed to be like Animal Crossing. The artwork looks like chunky barf, but somehow I got in the habit of playing this game before bed. (Subnautica and No Man's Sky didn't work so well as chill-out games.) So anyway, I'm...

    switch V1 got warm while charging on FW19, now fine after upgrading to latest

    Sometime around upgrading to FW 19.something my switch started getting warm in the dock. I tried charging it outside the dock and the back of it still got really warm. I figured the battery was just getting old so had started shopping for a replacement battery. I upgraded a few times to other...

    where to get cheap good luckfox devices?

    I got a another luckfox RV1103 device from Aliexpress for about $15. I was worried my main one could fail or get eaten by my insane plastic-munching dog. Came with a plastic case, ethernet wire and pointless USB drive. It also had two switches on it marked "A B" and "9.00 11.00" Well, all it...

    jailbroken Slim 9.60, original 9.00 both crash on wake up after pressing X

    Already did. I upgraded from 2.4b18 to 2.4b18.2 weeks ago. It doesn't seem any different.

    fake R36S from Ali and updating ArkOS....

    Well, it's been ok for a good while with a Walmart "Onn" brand 64GB card. The original no-name card it came with failing was expected: nothing from Aliexpress ever comes with a good card. 1737558918 The two 64GB "Onn" cards from walmart were about $10. I've had good results with "Onn" cards...

    jailbroken Slim 9.60, original 9.00 both crash on wake up after pressing X

    I think I might have finally found the problem. If I wake the PS4 using the PS button WITH THE CONTROLLER PLUGGED INTO THE USB PORT, sometimes this freeze happens after I press X. It's been more than 20 sleep/wake cycles on my PS4 Slim (9.60) and over 5 on the PS4 original (9.00) and I have not...

    fake R36S from Ali and updating ArkOS....

    Err, I already went down that road. (Actually, I dd-ed individual partitions onto a new card and resized them using gparted, but I'm sure doing the whole card will work as well.) I did the upgrade from the menu with the USB Wifi connected after that. Battery life and performance are good. It...
