    Hacking Homebrew Jailbroken PS5 console risk of account ban?

    Yes. Sony bans your account as well not just the console and it’s not temporary I learned the hard way back in the PS3 days. If you want PSN on a console you want to modify make a spare account. If you have purchased games Sony does not care how much $ you spent there is no appealing the ban.

    Sony announces major PS5, PS5 Pro, and PlayStation Portal price increases starting April 2

    If you factor inflation sure that makes sense. But in terms of actual dollar amount, has anything been this much. Maybe I am forgetting something but I don’t see $900 capturing a lot of new buyers granted that’s the cost of the pro not the base model. For something that has been $300 base with a...

    Sony announces major PS5, PS5 Pro, and PlayStation Portal price increases starting April 2

    2TB expansion only cost $119 on sale a few years ago, PS5 Pro with disc drive was a tad over $800 after tax. For less than $950 I was able to get a 4TB Pro with disc drive. To think if it dies Sony offers 0 repair options but to replace. And it will cost me almost the same price for just the...

    Hall Effect Joy Con 2 Review

    Depends on how you play. If you set deadzone to 0, TMR will appear to have a slight drift. Some dislike them for this reason.

    Series S Internal SSD Upgrade

    Con el chip Phison E19 cada vez más difícil de encontrar, optar por opciones oficiales que han bajado significativamente de precio es tu mejor apuesta. With the Phison E19 chip becoming harder to find, going with official options that have come down significantly in price is your best bet.

    Hall Effect Joy Con 2 Review

    Haven’t seen that happen, I have one pair with an issue where they don’t stay centered perfectly, it’s both Joy Cons in one specific pair. I can’t say what the manufacturer did to alleviate any potential interference but the magnets while connected do not cause any issues.

    Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 firmware updated to version 20.5.0

    Im definitely not calling Nintendo good, but I think there’s a lot more to it than that, Dark_AleX eventually saw how menacing Sony was being with PS3 hackers, I think it’s a heck of a lot easier now to track people down and companies will do it. Does it stink exploits are being disclosed to...

    Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 firmware updated to version 20.5.0

    For Nintendo it’s half at $50,000, I imagine some could give more, I think it if was going to happen it would have already. Not being serious but as long as someone can get paid and keep their disclosure ethical, it may limit public releases.

    Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 firmware updated to version 20.5.0

    If people want homebrew maybe they can get together and make HomebrewOne the platform paying larger bounties than manufacturers on HackerOne. If people were willing to chip in $10 each I don’t think it would be hard to raise more than the largest bounty from any game company. And keep the...

    ROG Xbox Ally X price confirmed to be $999.99

    All this fancy hardware across the board but no games that have really made me go WOW or OOOOOHHHHHH, not even a YIPPPPEEEEE. Also that price and you may still get stick drift.

    Hall Effect Joy Con 2 Review

    Good, still working great with no issues to report. I made several pair and they all work great still, they feel a tad different than the original sticks but that was the same experience with the Switch, they never feel exactly the same.

    Hall Effect Joy Con 2 Review

    More and more sellers on AliExpress are now selling the first Joy Con 2 Hall Effect sticks. It’s been only a few days, they do feel stiff in comparison but have some advantages to those who installed replacements in the Switch 1 Joy Cons. 1.) No calibration was needed, maybes it’s a one off...

    Hacking Major Security Vulnerability Reported

    If you stand on your head, close one nostril, wiggle your right pinky toe, and blink three times, your Switch 2 will run… Normally, but you just had a fun time.

    Switch 2 Joy Con teardown shows a marginal redesign

    Don’t be mad at Nintendo, it’s Alpsalpine to be mad at, Nintendo just uses their sticks like all other game companies. I wonder if Nintendo has even done any R&D to prevent drift or just says forget it and accepts the drift Alps sticks will eventually get, maybe all the game companies should...

    Hardware Mig Switch on Switch 2

    MiG Switch disappears into big ditch. Will be years if at all that an exploit is found that allows piracy. Also Hackerone and $20k, if you find something, genuinely go after that bounty vs a Nintendo Ninja showing up at your house.

    The Switch Flashcart Thread (Mig Switch etc.)

    At this point if anyone thinks these clowns even have anything, pretty sure Walmart is giving out Free Switch 2 consoles.

    Broken PS5 worth it for $250?

    I will also highlight you can not just pay Sony this generation, while that used to be a viable option, if it’s out of warranty or opened they simply will not service it.

    Why is Nintendo tripling down on Joy-Con drift?

    I really enjoy Hall Effect and TMR Joy Con sticks but this right here is the reason, from not working properly on wake, to an overall failure rate of 2-3%, are the factories that make Hall Effect TMR built for the level of scale Nintendo needs? I really like the technology myself but is it ready...

    Does it have to be a specific brand of drive, that’s pretty cool, nice work!

    The Switch Flashcart Thread (Mig Switch etc.)

    I’m not even willing to go that far. This is a non existent product with an X account ran by an apparent child. Maybe it’s Nintendo trolling, I would be entertained by this scenario.
