    What Have We Learned From Video Games?

    For life: if you're not sure you made the right choice, but the path you're heading down has new enemies, it's probably the right way forward.

    Xbox hit by massive layoffs, Perfect Dark and Everwilds canceled

    I really don't like this "hit by layoffs" formulation that keeps getting used. As if they got hit by a tornado or something. SOMEONE decided to lay off people, likely not for the benefit of consumers or remaining workforce, and very likely when that money could have been saved by cutting a CEO's...

    Norwegian man denied US entry due to bald JD Vance meme

    They can deny you entry and seize devices but cannot fine or put you in jail. That requires a judge. Be on the lookout to being asked to sign anything. If the situation is dodgy it might be wiser to shut up and seek a lawyer. That said it seems like political motivation, sociopathic guards...

    Pokémon Hong Kong Gold version IPS patch

    Do not actually use the 1.1 (revision 1) JPN ROM for patching. Use version 1.0 or the game will crash when entering the hall of fame. Your CRC32 should be fc04ac0e after patching.

    It might be possible to add DSONE to ntrboot_flasher.

    I have a DSONE(non-i), can this be used to have ntrboot and still use it as a normal flashcart at the same time without swapping between the ROMs?

    Homebrew GBA GBA Exploader on modern libnds...

    @Apache Thunder I have a question for you. This is an ancient idea I had way back in the heyday of the DS scene. You now have the code that reads GBA flashcart metadata and launches GBA mode. Would you be willing to make both an ExpLoader modification and a standalone GBA slot-2 launcher(I made...

    Palworld developer responds to Nintendo's lawsuit, claims they don't know which patents are being infringed upon

    Anyone knowing IP stuff will know exactly what's up. The first rule about patent infringement is you don't know anything about any patents. If it comes out that you've researched patents the legal penalties double.

    British police claim that they will extradite and imprison Americans over social media posts

    So let me get this straight, brits want to extradite Americans residing in the USA doing something on a US social media platform because what they're doing is illegal in the UK?

    GitLab has taken down the Suyu Nintendo Switch emulator

    Unless it's possible to host on some obscure git site hosted whoknowswhere that doesn't respond to takedowns, it's time for a dark web git. Preferrably complemented by an Element/Matrix chat and maybe Monero donations.

    Amazon has removed Emulation-Station from its app store because it "facilitates piracy"

    There aren't even emulators in this app... are they just going by aesthetics to remove an app because their wealthy friends are thumbing their noses? What we have allowed this world to become...

    Nintendo is suing the Yuzu emulator team

    This has to be an attempt to stall and bankrupt them with lawyer costs. Because legally they have no case. The encryption mode in the ROMs, and in general in other DRM'd media, can be decrypted using freeware tools. Yuzu is doing nothing unusual here, it's the key that's the essential part, and...

    Rosalina menu contrast setting on max and now my 3DS is blinded and i don't know how to revert is

    Remove the SD card and put it into the PC. Navigate to the \luma\config.ini file on the card and open it in any text editor. Scroll down to the [screen_filters] category and either edit the values yourself or delete that entire section and let Luma3DS rebuild it. Save and close the file and put...

    Hardware Good Store for Aftermarket N3DS XL Batteries?

    The battery is only in stock on their US store, not the EU one. And although you can place orders on the US store, you can't ship to Europe. No European countries show up in the country drop-down.

    Hardware Good Store for Aftermarket N3DS XL Batteries?

    My Mugen Power battery has swollen and I had to dispose of it. Looking for replacement. Mugen Power appears to have ceased to exist. The US Nintendo store has some original batteries in stock. Didn't find any in the EU and either way Nintendo appears to be extremely obtuse to this day that...
