    Hacking Okami

    Because the Wii version of the game was not released in Japan until rather recently. Like, last year or something. So they probably updated the controls a bit. I have no idea what exactly they updated though. Presumably they made it so the game registers if you tilt the wii remote. In the PAL...

    Review 64drive review

    I would try to contact Marshall about it to see what you can do. He's a very nice guy. The CF card reader in mine broke down a couple of weeks ago and I contacted him about it and he sent me a new one, postage paid and everything, ordering me to send back the faulty one. Of course, I had to pay...

    Review 64drive review

    Thanks for the info. Yes it appears that PAL N64 video output is pretty shitty by default. I'll have to do that mod some day hopefully. Oh and an update regarding the issue I had with no colors on my HDTV; I just switched the channel to a different one after starting a game in NTSC, then I...

    Review 64drive review

    Just wanted to update you guys with this info. If you have a PAL console you need an S-Video cable to get color in NTSC roms. In other words, it's just like the PS1 problem with black and white colors on NTSC games on a PAL console unless you had an RGB cable. I would recommend an RGB cable for...

    Review 64drive review

    Alright, update. I finally received my 64drive today. I just came back from picking it up so I haven't tried it yet. It was well packaged in a small hard box and had bubble wrap around the cart. In the box was the cart, an A4 sized User Guide and a 6ft USB A to USB Mini5 cable for firmware...

    Review 64drive review

    I haven't checked my email for a few days and I just noticed that on Feb 6 I recieved a shipping comfirmation from paypal, with a "Note to buyer: Your 64drive has shipped"! It also included a tracking number. It was on its way to a sorting facility in Manhattan also on Feb 6. So, sorry to...

    Review 64drive review

    I ordered one back on Oct 26th and I still haven't recieved it yet either. I emailed him in November asking if my order had been recieved and he answered very quickly confirming my order, and also saying he would probably get to my order in December. Now I emailed him again a week ago or so for...

    Gaming So, any build quality issues with DSi XL?

    The XL has excellent build quality. Some things are even better than on the 3DS actually, like the D-pad which has a reputation of getting "squeeky" on the 3DS. No such issues on the XL. If you press down hard on the part below the D-pad with your thumb, you can feel the XL shell bending a...

    Hacking How to keep my Wii from updating when you put a disc in that wants to?

    You can usually use Gecko OS to boot the game and it will tell you what IOS the game needs. But if the game already boots fine but crashes later, I'm not sure that would work. But it's worth a try I guess. You can block disc updates with priiloader I think, but I don't use that myself so I...

    Hacking Wiithon 1.0 - IMHO Best WBFS Manager for Linux

    And I'd still love to try this, but since it is impossible to compile on a 64bit system i can't =/ I have everything required to build it but i get the same error as noon gets. I use Arch Linux 64bit. I also saw that this was reported as a bug on the bugzilla page or whatever, but I'd love to...

    Hacking Old 3.4U to 4.2U

    I dont see the point in updating anything. I'm still on 3.2 and every game I have thrown at it has worked so far. Yes, that includes Wii Sports Resort and other MotionPlus games. And 4.2 will basically remove all your homebrew, cIOS files and even bootmii. Just stay on 3.4, no reason to update...

    Hacking GameCube Backup Loader v0.2 + AR

    Sounds like something that could happen if people start developing the GC Backup Loader again. But currently it is not possible.
