    Nintendo Switch firmware 18.0.0 has been released

    Themes usually break on an update and requires extra steps to fix. Easy enough to fix though.

    Nintendo Switch firmware 18.0.0 has been released

    Still cant believe we are this close to the end of the switch life span and we havent received official themes aside from black and white... I'm sure people would be willing to pay for them. We just get icons. at least those are customizable now...

    The Pokemon Company makes official statement regarding Palworld

    With all the weird things they turned into Pokemon, theres bound to be some similarities. Bunnies, Rats, Bats, Birds, etc. But look at how different Dragon Quest and Pokemon make those. The art style is different. like authors using similar words, there has to be a distinct style to the prose...

    The Pokemon Company makes official statement regarding Palworld

    I've played both Pokemon and Dragon Quest games but never thought "this DQ monster looks like a pokemon". They art style is so distinct and unique. I'm seeing the DQ vs Pokemon comparison and I think this is 2 different artists being told to draw a generic dragon, a rock creature, a...

    The Pokemon Company makes official statement regarding Palworld

    My best friend has always maintained that Pokemon needs to revolutionize their formula since its getting stale and he hasnt finished a game since rby... He wants real time fights (but doesnt consider arceus since its not a mainline) and hates that pokemon stories are lame and made for kids. but...

    Replacing the entire console shell

    Thanks everyone. Got in touch with a shop that does shell replacements. Might as well send it to people who have the right tools. And lesson learned, don't go to cheap ass shops. Asked for a resoldering of the motherboard connector for the sd card module, he did that and damaged the right rail...

    Replacing the entire console shell

    Anyone with experience replacing their shell? How crucial is removing the rails from the console? I stripped my screw on the right rail and have run out of options for easy fixes... I'm now considering buying a rotary cutter just to gouge a line back on the screw head (and adjacent parts) to...

    Sd Card reader suddenly broke...

    I assumed the padding was to help the module make contact with the motherboard... Does that part heat up that much?

    Sd Card reader suddenly broke...

    This problem might have been caused by improperly placed thermal paste at the time. I suspect the area overheated when I placed paste too thick. I'll wait for the repairman to finish his job then reapply minimal thermal paste only. Could heat be a cause of this issue?

    Sd Card reader suddenly broke...

    Rebuilding the fpc looks like more trouble than just placing a new one in... Definitely don't have the skills for this. Joycon drift doesn't scare me but this is way above me

    Sd Card reader suddenly broke...

    Planning to get a 1 tb card and splitting it between ofw and cfw. I'm already using mtp to install games. But every time I update or want to start cfw from scratch, I felt the need to remove the card... Won't be doing that again 0_o

    Sd Card reader suddenly broke...

    Guy I left the switch with does have experience changing the fcp connector and has a multimeter. Hope that's all it takes to fix it. But there's no way to ensure it won't happen again right? Taped down the card reader module on my brother in laws switch to prevent further moving around...

    Sd Card reader suddenly broke...

    Are these pins that easy to damage? I wasn't even touching the switch when it happened. Was just installing a few games using the mtp responder on dbi. I don't see any physical damage on the pins so could it be a short?

    Sd Card reader suddenly broke...

    Already ordered 5 sd card modules too... Hahaha. Oh well. I'm gonna tape down the card reader when I get this all fixed up. Guy who sold me a replacement sd module also does fcp connector replacements so I'll get him to do it. Hope that solves it all. Still can't figure out how the damn...

    Sd Card reader suddenly broke...

    Took a proven working card reader from my brother in laws switch and placed it in mine. Same problem... My card reader in his switch has no problem. So guess microsoldering is the next step...
