    Nintendo Switch 2: The Current State of Physical Releases

    I'm not sure this is accurate in this case. I wasn't forced to download a system update to play this game. I was forced to download a game update. I was already on the most up to date Switch firmware. If you query the game information with the cartridge inserted, it says that it's version...

    Nintendo Switch 2: The Current State of Physical Releases

    If I literally cannot run the game from the media without downloading an update, then it is not the "full game." Whether the missing portion is 1% or 99% of the game's data is kind of irrelevant, as functionally it's the same experience either way. First S2 cart I bought and I'm taking it as a...

    Nintendo Switch 2: The Current State of Physical Releases

    Picked up the Mario Wonder Switch 2 cart and was kind of surprised to find that it refuses to boot without downloading the v1.2 patch. (It only comes with v1.1 on the cart.) Seems kind of scummy when it's not labeled as a game key card. Is this common?

    Is there a way to identify different game disc revisions for Wii U?

    Most console libraries have at least some games that received multiple production runs, with later runs including a patch on the ROM/disc that makes it different from its launch version in one way or another. It's pretty common on Switch, and you can identify different revisions of Switch games...

    Hacking Nintendont

    Can anybody let me know what, if any, difference in input latency would exist between: 1) a Gamecube game on an actual Gamecube (or Wii) 2) a Gamecube game through Nintendont on Wii U with an official GCN controller adapter? (Assume that the display lag is the same for both consoles.) I've...

    Hacking Save Nintendo WiFi - A project to save online servers for Wii (and DS) games

    This might be the cause: Firmware: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (10/10/09) micro I'm getting plenty of packets in the Wireshark capture, but I just can't seem to get anything specific to the Wii's IP address, despite following the instructions on the website. Should I flash the router with a different...

    Hacking Save Nintendo WiFi - A project to save online servers for Wii (and DS) games

    Wondering if anyone has some pointers. I've followed the instructions on using DD-WRT and Wireshark here to the letter but Wireshark doesn't seem to be picking up anything. Whenever I apply the filter for my Wii's IP address (ip.addr == 192.168.1.3), nothing is showing up in the capture window...

    Hacking Save Nintendo WiFi - A project to save online servers for Wii (and DS) games

    So I'm way late to the party on this, but I want to help get the necessary data for Bleach Versus Crusade. I have a Windows 7 laptop, Linksys WRT54G V8 wireless+wired router (no custom firmware), official Wii LAN adapter (if that would be more useful than wireless), and I'm using Riivolution...

    Hacking Reggie! - NSMBWii Level Editor

    I'd just like to say thanks to the programmer(s) working on this tool. I've 100%ed NSMBW in both solo and 4-player and really want to take a crack at this when it's released. Most of the questions I had have already been answered in this thread, but I have two more: 1) Will there be any sort of...
