    Best "open" handheld for emulation?

    I'm looking for something to play old games (preferably up through PSX). I know there are a lot of options, but what is the best of them? The OpenPandora looks good but it's a bit too expensive for what I want. I'd like to spend under $200. If it had good native games as well that would be a bonus.

    Hacking I want to start from scratch, would love some help

    I'm currently on 4.1, but I've been modded since 3.4 and I'd like to remove all my homebrew and start over. First, I had seen a guide to reverting your Wii to "virgin" status, but now the only one I can find is fairly old. Can anyone link me to a current one? Second, should I remove BootMii...

    Hacking Probably going to switch USB Loaders... couple quick questions

    I'm currently using USB Loader GX, and while I absolutely love the interface I've had enough problems with it that I want to switch. I'm looking at Configurable USB Loader and uLoader. The biggest draw of uLoader to me is the support for NAND emulation of WiiWare/VC games and saved games/dlc...

    Can anyone help me with IPS patching?

    So, I'm trying to play Shin Megami Tensei in english. I have the ROM and the IPS. I put them both in my snes9x directory and boot it up... and it doesn't work. It loads, but crashes as soon as any text should be displaying. Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

    Hacking Flashcarts and Pokewalker: Do they work?

    I haven't seen many topics about this, since anyone who has the pokewalker has the retail game. However, I want to be able to use Pokesav still, but I'd like to buy it both to support the company and get the Pokewalker. So, will the Pokewalker still work with a flash cart? I have an Acekard 2i...

    Gaming Proper Pokemon save sizes?

    So, I'm using an Acekard 2i. When I played Pokemon Platinum on my DSTT, it used a 1MB save file. On the Acekard (AKAIO), it uses a 512kB save. Which is correct? Also, while we're at it, what's the proper save size for HG/SS? Thanks.

    Hacking Is there any way to speed up cheat loading (AKAIO)?

    I used "USRCHEAT.DAT" from here : http://cheats.gbatemp.net/ It takes a very long time to get to the cheat menu for a game. Is there any way to optimize it to make it go a little faster?

    Hacking R4 faster to save than other carts

    Why is this? I have an R4, a DSTT and an Acekard 2i. I can unfortunately only use the Ackeard 2i at this point. But when I had the DS Lite, I noticed that the R4 saved much faster. My best example is with Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of Sky. It would take ~4 seconds to save on my R4, and...

    Hacking Acekard 2i and AKAIO: Savelist.bin?

    Do I need it? I noticed that it's included in the AKAIO download, but I thought that the Acekard 2i could auto-detect the necessary save size. Should I just get rid of it? EDIT: Also, what about other files like rpg_sd.dldi and rpg_nand.dldi, that are clearly meant for the Acekard RPG? EDIT2...

    Hacking Looking for an SD card that will definitely work with BootMii

    Basically, I'd like to use BootMii's auto-boot to HBC functionality. I used to use Preloader, but I found that the longer boot-time was a little irritating. Plus, you couldn't operate the Preloader menu with the Rock Band instruments (or even the Wii Remote when plugged into a Rock Band...

    Hacking Anyone have any experience with Dealextreme RMAs?

    Sorry if this isn't completely on-topic, but I ordered an Acekard 2.1 through Dealextreme. I finally received it today, only to find it's a fake-or-otherwise-non-functioning cart (HW:80 in AKAIO, doesn't load anything, from what I've read that's probably a fake). I want to send it back for a...

    Hacking Where to buy Acekard 2.1?

    I've decided on the Acekard 2.1, but I'm not sure where to buy it. I'd like to get it as cheaply as possible, but I'd rather not wait more than 2 weeks for it. I live in the US. Any suggestions? I never plan on getting the DSi.

    Hacking DSTT Slow to save

    Is this a common issue, or could something be wrong with mine? I'm certain that it's not a fake. I have an R4 (real, original) in addition, and that saves much faster. I switched to my DSTT because of compatibility issues. I tried YSMenu on the R4, but I had some sound issues in a few games. The...

    Homebrew Loading WiiWare/VC from SD/USB (Sneek, Triiforce...)

    What application is best for this? All I want is to load WiiWare directly from an SD card/USB drive instead of using the SD channel where it copies it to my NAND every time I want to play. I've read a few posts around and there seem to be conflicting opinions. What are the pros/cons of each?

    Hardware Multigame ISO Creator 3.5.4F+ download?

    Hacking Defragmenting a FAT32 drive for Wii Games

    I recently converted my WBFS drive into a FAT32 drive with .wbfs files. I'm wondering if anyone's found a good way to defragment a drive setup for that. Defragmenting is easy enough, but how do you ensure that you keep the .wbfs and .wbf1 files together?

    Gaming Guitar Hero 5: Cannot download World Tour patch

    I downloaded two songs, one that's GH5 DLC, one that's GH:WT DLC (Born to Run). The GH5 DLC played fine. When I tried to play the GH:WT DLC, it clearly didn't work. I went back to the store and tried to download the update to the Wii (I figured I'd copy it to the SD later). When I downloaded the...

    Hacking Guitar Hero/Rock Band DLC and the USB Loader

    I currently use a DVD for Rock Band 2, as I could not get the DLC to backup to the SD card properly when using a USB Loader. Now that I tried to use some of the GH5 DLC, I'm getting a different problem. Whenever I've booted from the USB Loader, it says that it cannot detect an SD card. Is there...

    Gaming Running Lego Rock Band from disc channel

    I have a D2PRO9 installed that should bypass updates. However, when I go to run LEGO Rock Band from the disc channel, it tells me that I need to perform a Wii System Update. When I go ahead and do so (since I have BootMii as Boot2 anyway, and am already on 4.2), it messes up the Homebrew...

    Hacking Sound Problems with Guitar Hero/Rock Band Games on USB Loaders

    What are the best configurations for each of the guitar hero/rock band games to avoid any sound glitches? I've been using Configurable USB Loader with cIOS 223 (37 + 36) so far, but I've run into major sound glitches in LEGO Rock Band and some minor sound glitches (tracks cutting out for a few...
