    Emulating games going forward a thing of the past?

    Thankfully, if Nintendo is smart, their next console's hardware will be solid enough to not encourage people to emulate it, much like how nearly everyone who bought any console from the PS4 onward was content with the hardware. Although, lack of freedom with things like mods will take some...

    I have accidentally deleted the files on my SD card and now 3ds won't boot

    This happened to me recently. What worked for me was formatting the SD card to FAT32. Sorry in advance if this isn't helpful.

    Homebrew The Wii U Homebrew Request Thread

    If possible, I would like homebrew that allows one to switch between limited range and full range RGB over HDMI. I really want any form of response to this.

    ROM Hack Antisavegame Restore / Secure Value Updater (PS, ACNL, PRW, SSB, XY, ORAS...)

    If you have custom firmware on your 3DS, download and install Checkpoint. You can find your Shuffle save by looking for the folder in your SD card called "0004000000141000" (use the search function in Windows Explorer). The Shuffle save file is likely called "savedata.bin", and you can simply...

    Hardware New 3DS XL brightness issue

    That's actually what I figured, because I eventually bought a second motherboard and it had the proper brightness. Whereas the first one I bought was pre-flashed with CFW, so what you wrote is very likely the explanation.

    Hardware New 3DS XL brightness issue

    Welp, even though I got no replies, I may as well write an update for whoever may end up being in my situation. Basically, if you accidentally break the motherboard or power board of a dual-IPS 3DS, it's a pain in the *ss to find a proper replacement. Otherwise, it either doesn't boot or the...

    They're both dual IPS.

    Hardware New 3DS XL brightness issue

    What hardware controls screen brightness? I recently reconstructed a New 3DS XL that has dual IPS screens using a new motherboard and power board, and I found my screens to be noticeably dimmer than my smaller New 3DS, even with max brightness and power-conserving settings turned off. I attached...

    Gaming Pokémon Global Link note says almost 6,000 people have been banned online for having altered save da

    Well...because the ban is tied to your Game Sync ID, you'd have to unlink your game. However, you can't re-link the same version. At least that's my understanding.

    Gaming Pokémon Global Link note says almost 6,000 people have been banned online for having altered save da

    I did ask for someone to show me how this scenario is different, meaning I'm not 100% sure. I advise you wait.

    Gaming Pokémon Global Link note says almost 6,000 people have been banned online for having altered save da

    I agree with much of what you're saying. Yes, generally speaking, hacks should be kept to yourself, but my point is that some people online seem to be scaring people away from genning even though there's no proof that legal genning can get you banned and it has never happened before. And in my...

    Gaming Pokémon Global Link note says almost 6,000 people have been banned online for having altered save da

    Are people seriously afraid of using PKHeX at all after this fiasco? Quite literally, in the history of the series, no one has ever been banned online for genning a legal Pokemon. Perhaps insane judges at tournaments will ban you for merely having a 5IV Pokemon a couple generations ago, but...

    Homebrew oot3DHax 10.6 Help

    This is just a suggestion, but I've seen people say 10.5 payloads work perfectly well with 10.6. I was exactly in your predicament up until a few minutes ago. Basically, go to Smealum's website, input your version number, and try to match the .bin file's name with the one from the oot3Dhax folder.

    Homebrew What demos or games have you tried on n3ds HANS app 800mhz overclock?

    Sorry to inform you that 3D turned on in a grass terrain really doesn't improve lag very much (in ORAS). Did you try this with smaller Pokemon models or something?

    ROM Hack Antisavegame Restore / Secure Value Updater (PS, ACNL, PRW, SSB, XY, ORAS...)

    Is there no way to decrypt a save file without homebrew?
