    Homebrew Retroarch Emulation Thread (Nightly Builds Included)

    Last night I downloaded the nightly version from 11/4/2017 and tried some new roms and got it working. I'm confused by this statement though, I just downloaded the cia version, and there is a cia folder with a cia file (frontend) for every emulator (I only care about pcsx so that's the only one...

    Homebrew Retroarch Emulation Thread (Nightly Builds Included)

    I'm running B9S 1.3 and Luma3DS 8.1.1, I'm using the nightly build from 11/3/17 (haven't bothered updating to the most recent). I've tried old version and new, and tried changing the menu driver (I like rgui better anyway). I'm trying to run PCSX, and have installed that .cia and have copied the...

    ROM Hack [Release] Simple 3DS GBA Banner + Icon generator

    I've been using this utility lately and it's great, but I had a problem with a few roms. I managed to trace the issue. It seems any game with an '&' in the title causes an issue. Your XML uses the & for URL encoding, but libretro repalces all & with _ in their titles. For example: Final Fantasy...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Why would you want to spend money and have battery drain and be not able to do hardly anything with your console? There is a huge world you will be missing out on. If someone offered you free plane tickets to go wherever you wanted to, would you choose to spend money just travelling by bus? This...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    I think I'm understanding the difference between everything now. I don't know what you mean by access to the store but you'll always be able to update your firmware. If Nintendo pulls some sort of trick that stops the current version of Luma working properly you may need to update Luma, but...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    I have 11.6.0-39U I see the guide to installing ntrboot on 3ds.guide, I can follow those instructions easily enough. I have various questions about cfw and the ROMs etc. If there is an existing guide or FAQ for my questions please link me, I haven't found the answers online yet, or maybe I...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Why are they a bad idea? And correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression I couldn't buy games from the eshop and use the built-in friends list etc. with custom firmware? I have a large SD card, and plan on purchasing 3ds games digitally, so I want that to remain intact. I just want...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Really hope this is the right place to ask this. My friend pointed me here before I go doing anything. I just recently got a new 3ds xl (the special edition samus one). I have no desire to change out the firmware (which is what most everything I've been reading around here is about). All I want...
