    SciresM (Atmosphere developer) is retiring

    Thanks for everything and enjoy your digital retirement, SciresM! That said, what is the latest Firmware - Atmosphere combo that works? If one wants to update, right now would be the best time, right? Before another update drops.

    DSpico - An open-source flashcart for the DS(i)

    Oh god... of course it can't, what with flying a skulled flag and yell yarrr. But thanks for the pointer. Didn't know the firmware is another configurable component. Time to dive in and try! EDIT: Then i assume it runs on my 3DSs because they are modified already, my DSi XLs are both vanilla...

    DSpico - An open-source flashcart for the DS(i)

    Of course it is that easy. My monkey brain was looking for this kind of writeup on LNH's main github page, not within their different project pages. Thank you, works like a charm. The first issue i had was that initially the cart would show up in the menu, but boot to a white screen of death...

    DSpico - An open-source flashcart for the DS(i)

    Game Parts Store on aliexpress has a few DSpicos with the 'nice case' now, which looks to be the injection molded type of cartridge casing at least on their photos. I ordered one with the 3d printed case a few weeks ago that was supposed to arrive today, but DHL did DHL things so i gotta wait...

    potential Switch2 software exploit confirmed?

    I complete forgot to mention the possibility to tweak the system itself. Overclocking and undervolting in general of course, but mostly if the LCD can be run with more voltage / overdrive to improve the response time. It is a 120 Hz panel with response times that barely even suffice for 30 fps...

    potential Switch2 software exploit confirmed?

    June 15th coming into view? This would be lightning fast, even if its just finding an entry point with loads of necessary development to follow still. I stashed away a second Switch 2 with just the launch firmware applied and SD card initialized, banking on making use of it in maybe five or so...

    Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds - The better Mario Kart on the Switch 2?

    Both Sonic and Mario better be happy Crash Bandicoot has such a terrible ownership, because Crash Team Racing gives both of them a run for their money. I'd absolutely love a Mario Kart title with CTR mechanics. Here's hoping the IP isn't left for dead once more.

    Hacking Best practice for preserving Switch 2 exploitability?

    Because there is a chance. Nothing is unhackable, a vulnerability might just take years to be uncovered, or never be found. It's a gamble. Lowest reasonable firmware is always best. You can always update later on, but going back is rather impossible.

    Gaming Super Mario Wonder have ghosting/blurring issue on Switch 2?

    Comparing to the og Switch i don't see any more or less blur on those. Both are LCD screens with mediocre, but servicable persistence blur, and both run at 60 Hz in that game.

    Hacking Best practice for preserving Switch 2 exploitability?

    If it is like on Switch 1, the update will be downloaded automatically once available, but won't apply itself as long as auto updating is turned off. But every time you start a game it'll nag you to update the system, and it'll be the default option, so one wrong A button press can ruin your day.

    Switch 2 Pro Controller D-pad

    The main issue with the ProCon2 dpad is that it is so incredibly sensitive. There is barely any resistance at all, which is why it is so easy to input perpendicular directions when you don't intend to. The rubber domes just need to be stiffer. Unfortunately taking this controller apart is a...

    Hacking Speculations about Switch 2 hacking

    Which is precisely why you would want to disable your Wifi. To prevent any updates to either the system or the game from being applied. Not out of fear of catching a virus or something like that.

    Hacking Best practice for preserving Switch 2 exploitability?

    How does one even get to link two Switch 2 consoles in the first place? Even following the official guide to do so doesn't work. I never get asked to link the consoles, the VGCs just unload on the first console when loading them into the second and vice versa.

    Hacking Best practice for preserving Switch 2 exploitability?

    I guess it comes down to when you insert your SD card. On my first Switch 2 i booted, applied the day 1 update, and then the system asked if i'd use an SD card, upon insertion of which it then applied another update. On the second Switch 2 i inserted it prior to turning it on, and it only...

    Hacking Speculations about Switch 2 hacking

    Big decision to make then, with a possible outcome that may come to pass only in years of time. I could justify getting two Switches, one for use and one for tucking away, but three would be pushing the envelope.
