  • So I've finally gotten TwilightMenu to work on my DS Flashcart and everything. Having said that, whenever I load a game for some reason, my menu will always boot into the game and not to Twilight Menu

    Did you make sure to copy the correct files over for your flashcart?

    This is a config oopsie as far as I can remember.

    If it is, you can hold B to boot into TWiLightMenu++, go into the options via SELECT, switch pages with X/Y, then there is an option to turn off "Last played ROM on startup".

    I've managed to do everything right, but ngl I like the other menu that it provides with it replacing my M3i Zero Menu. I'm going to miss having sounds and whatnot, but I'd take this as a huge win.

    Okay. Okay. Okay, can someone help me on how to add a save file on the Wii plaease? I've tried using Save Manager GX, adding a Mario kart Wii Save file, putting it in the Save Manager Folder, and the whole app crashes.

    If it's in encrypted format you can just place it right on the SD card if it has the right folder structure (private/wii/whatever, IIRC) and import it through system settings.
    Man, I haven't said anything here in a while. I guess I ain't in the homebrew craze as much as I used to anymore. I finally finished my Modded Wii, but I don't use it much outside of playing a few games.

    @DragonMals Your Wii is much more capable when it comes to retro gaming.
    With RetroArch you can play Arcade games. Most of the Mame 2003 Full Non-Merged Romset are playable, so if you're into that...
    CPS1, CPS2 and CPS3 alongside the 98% of the NEOGEO Arcade games are also playable in RetroArch.

    Then there's Homebrew Games and Ports of classic PC games.

    I didn't know that! Well considering that it can run Magical Drop and some other Arcade games, then I could just have that as an Arcade emulation machine.

    I don't know how how to get MAME working on my PC at all nor how to even get the games "through other means"

    I never like playing games as I used to.
    Can anyone see this? Great.

    Today I just saw the anoucnement of RiiConnect24 and WiiLink merging together. Uh... Should I do anything major to my modded wii to keep up to date with the current changes?

    Never really used WiiLink in all honesty, its a revival to Japanese channels so call it 'experimental' if you may.
    Update on the Wii: I guess that there's something wrong with my router that it changed something and whatnot, so I guess I have to rely on good old Hotspot connection to get things going, and this impacts the performance on stuff like the Nintebdo Channel.

    Dude I just want to watch videos of Trailers from the 2000s why gotta make it so difficult for me

    Anyways, issues aside, I hope y'all tempers have been having a great Christmas. I don't interact much often cause well, life has been taking me over and I haven't been really into the homebrew scene much.

    I've heard that something with the 3ds and WiiU happen but Pretend is yet to be open to the public as ive said this comment, I think.

    Anyone waiting for 2024? What are some things that you've accomplished this year? Any notable achievements, conflicts and whatnot? And what do you plan for the next year to come?

    The Wii doesn't support WPA2 IIRC. So your router needs to be set to WPA/WPA2 mixed (which lowers security)
    What happens when you say "Why can't I mute the administrators and the other 'higher ups?'"

    Okay for some reason, I am having a TON of intenet problems on my Wii. My WIFI is good everywhere else, but I don't understand why I am having so much problems with my Family Wii. Can I get help?

    Honestly, you're onto something. In the future of my house, my parents thought about making everything run using Ethernet because some of our folks don't get enough reception in this house and instead of having to deal with the wifi, we could just have everything plugged in and works fine.

    However, when it comes to actually working on converting everything to LAN, I guess that it's all up to my father cause well... We don't know how to route anything in the house without breaking something else, or something.

    I might look into this for sure especially if I have an extender nearby and I can connect this to the WIi cause well, because I'm not the only child or the only parent, I couldn't just have all of the Wifi to myself.

    So with the WiiU bootleg that Sony had made (heard it got released last month), does it still deserve the cticism that it gets?

    It's just okay. A bit weird going from the previous UI to this, but I think if my first impression was the new UI then I probably wouldn't have much to say about it.
    Oh damn, forgot to update you guys on the status of my modded 2ds. Everything gotten transferred and 2 times the comfort!

    .... Until I realized that I'm going to try stripping my life down to the Wii/DS era for a week. What do you guys think?

    You should write a blog entry about your experiments/tests regarding hacking/modding.
    I hate having to wait for my console to finish having a wait cycle for transferring y data over to another console. I'm hearing people say that it's sever based and I can't do anything about it even on a modded console.

    I used the 3ds browser loads back in the day, it was actually pretty well done for the mobile Internet of its age. Unfortunately it seems the internet has moved on without it.

    And to clarify by "back in the day" and "its age" I mean like, 2012. And even 2015 for the new 3ds browser, though it started to stop being so neat soon after.

    You don't hold down START+SELECT together to enter the Luma3DS menu. You only need to hold SELECT to enter the configuration menu, and the START button is for the chainloader menu to launch payloads such as GodMode9.

    "Got a new 3ds xl and is immediately modding it"
    Of course. Very much needed.

    "I factory reset a 3DS, will the modded stuff still be on there?"
    Factory reset just throws away the user profile. Nothing more.
    Few things have an impact on B9S.
    When did Elon annoucne that Circles are going to be removed, and when did he also annoucne t hat to make a community, you must have premium? Now I have no other way to interact with my moots in a space. But then again, why would I want to do that if none of my moots actually interact with me?
    Not counting RetroArch, Bizhawk, and Kega Fusion, what are some other Genesis emulators people use on PC? Kega Fusion is getting old on me and I can't even go on fullscreen with using the application.

    Dear lad, nowadays I don't use MD emulators on PC, but I remember well one of the first ones for ms-dos, with its unforgettable bloody interface. Welp, what good memories. :rolleyes:

    Would you exclude something like Ares? Because there's basically no good modern standalone Genesis emulators iirc
    I had a pretty solid birthday! I played Wonder with family, and while I have to get used to the new voices, I'm still happy to play a whole new mario game.

    Although Superstars and Wonder releasing the same time together is still a bit weird, I'll still be enjoying the best of both worlds soon... (I don't have Sonic Superstars yet).
