    Hacking Speculations about Switch 2 hacking

    Rocknix on the Switch 2 could go hard. I bet the Switch 2 competes with a lot of the high end Android handhelds in raw performance. Being able to emulate pretty much everything including a lot of PC games without needing a separate device for it is rather appealing.

    Some new Pringles flavors

    I'm pretty sure buffalo wings is also a rehash, I'm sure I bought it a few years ago. These limited edition Pringles always tend to be mid as fuck. They don't go hard enough on the flavoring. Pringles tends to be kind of light on flavoring in general but things like curry and buffalo wings you...

    Usb loader gx freezes when HDD is plugged on USB

    You said it was new. That changes things completely, how can you be sure it's not faulty?

    Usb loader gx freezes when HDD is plugged on USB

    Samsung don't make external hard drives. That's probably an SSD. Note that SSDs are not widely tested to be compatible with USB loaders. I've had some success with them, but I've also seen others that have had issues with them. Possibly that model is not compatible. A Y-cable could help, if the...

    Nintendo fined 35 million euros by the French government due to Switch 1 Joycon malfunctions

    The wipers in the potentiometers wear out which leads to all kinds of issues including stick drift. Like I said, in most controllers, this normally only happens from years of heavy use, you may never experience it if you're not rough with your controllers. The joycons, due to their small size...

    Nintendo fined 35 million euros by the French government due to Switch 1 Joycon malfunctions

    Any 1st party controller from any generation is susceptible to stick drift, usually this happens after years of heavy use though so it's considered normal wear and tear. Joycons are unique though in that they are guaranteed to fail, no matter how gentle you are. EU law guarantees products for 2...

    Did Nintendo make the legacy download servers slower?

    Like any large tech company they obviously scale bandwidth capacity with number of active users. Both so that they can scale up to meet increased demand and down again when that demand is no longer there. This is how the modern Internet works.

    RAManimator adds animated graphics to emulated games with no ROM editing

    Pokemon is a good target because animated sprites already exist that can be reused. Somebody would have to make animated sprites for other games but by the time you are putting that much effort into it you may be better off just making it into a portable romhack rather than rely on a...

    Games that Became Other Games

    I don't know about that. I think Nintendo always intended to make Captain Toad, but the levels in SM3DW acted as a testbed for the mechanics. Turning it into its own game just seemed so obvious. I didn't much care for the Toad levels, because they slowed down the pace of the game. It works much...

    [discussion] Paper Mario Wii U or Mario Kart 64 wii u?

    Definitely Paper Mario. That game still holds up, Mario Kart 64 has not aged so gracefully.

    Can the Wii u pro controller works for Wii games ?

    It is odd though. SNES controllers have L and R so even if the sticks and ZL/ZR and such didn't work (because they don't exist on the NES/SNES Classic) at least you would expect L and R to work. The retro receiver has an extra pin that's not wired up to anything on the wiimote, maybe that pin...
