    Hacking [Semi-working] NFS2ISO2NFS - convert nfs to iso and back

    Bunch of really stupid questions. Metroid Prime Trilogy is a multiple executable game, correct? I guess it is not dependent on partitions and IOS reloads? Does it load sub-executables in the same way Wii Menu would load anything else? What communication mechanism is this not-IOS (HAIOS?) using...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    so this is more of a homebrew question but I can see no separate noob question thread in that section I have an 11.0.0-33 EU O3DS and decided to install some homebrew for temporary fun. Browserhax is working ATM but since it's remote-nuked unless you avoid eShop I wanted to replace it with some...

    Nintendo starts selling Wii U Gamepads... but not to YOU!

    Because Wii U GamePad has a firmware (Quick Start, TV Remote etc.) that is updated concurrently with Wii U's "main" firmware, and thus shenanigans would start if they decided to desync regional firmware updates on an update containing a GamePad firmware update. Update. EDIT: Actually I think...

    Homebrew Browserhax is dead (on 9.9 and up)

    Incorrect, as far as I know. Currently browser checks for signal to go dead but if it's not present it just ignores it. YouTube refuses to start if it cannot verify it's not been updated.

    Hacking Noob hack concept questions - using cIOS without installing it

    Concept. According to Wiibrew, if AHBPROT thingy is turned off, it is possible to patch executing IOS in real time, this suggests whatever protection IOS usually has against PPC code is off. In theory, it should be then possible to replace it using PPC code with a cIOS without actually...

    Hacking Wii U Homebrew Wish List - Homebrew Idea Thread

    Thank you for the information, Mn1. I was thinking of tags, along other things. In the random homebrew ideas, using USB ODD for movies/music/data could end up being hilarious.

    Hacking Wii U Homebrew Wish List - Homebrew Idea Thread

    Okay, I honestly have a problem with this. It would make perfect sense on Wii. But Wii U uses simultaneous multiprocessing. Would, say, web browser, or notification checker, be a title, or is that reserved for games (and maybe DLC)? Regardless, how would IOSU distinguish which of running...

    Hacking Wii U Homebrew Wish List - Homebrew Idea Thread

    So this is probably going to be extremely stupid. Is my understanding of the following correct? IOSU guards USB HDD and eMMC in a reasonable way. It protects the system by refusing to decrypt unsigned stuff. That's why Caffiine thing works over network. IOSU has some sort of concept of PPC...

    Hacking Gateway 3.1 Zelda OoT Compatibility List. Please post

    With all due regards, I don't think you can move a checksum. Checksum is supposed to depend on the rest of the save. I think. You could fix the checksum if you knew how it works. But a dump from a regular game wouldn't help there, unless you wanted to check if your checksum theory is true.

    Hacking Priiloader working funny?

    This might sound stupid, but what Wii Remote are you using? As long as I remember, I had to use a non-TR one to install Priiloader and then update it to beta version which does support -TRs.

    Hacking Now will we be able to find out how Nintendo uses the gamepad as a controller in vWii?

    Well, fine, the question is whether somebody smart could get that special IOS. Then it would be easy to pull out the "how the GamePad work" parts. I think. If it's implemented in IOS anyway.

    Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

    So, uh. Excuse me for annoying you, but you mean the "play from downloads" part, not the "use the GamePad buttons" part, correct?

    Hacking Now will we be able to find out how Nintendo uses the gamepad as a controller in vWii?

    No. Regular Wii cannot connect to eShop.

    Hacking Now will we be able to find out how Nintendo uses the gamepad as a controller in vWii?

    Well... I have no idea, really! It may be not as easy to RE as it seems though. I wouldn't be surprised if it works like this: Nintendo created their own "cIOS" (except working with eShop purchases, obviously) This thing is kept not available to the rest of vWii It pulls the saves from...

    Hacking [release] Use blocked DS flashcards on 3DS, probably N3DS too.

    This is all quite confusing actually. So if I got it right, 3DS has either a program or a file describing how to detect valid / invalid NDS cards, and this program or file is upgradeable and signed, but rising the version number does NOT invalidate the signature? (If this signing is...
