    Hacking How does SX OS Emunand work?

    Okay, so I am at this stage: I have SX OS. My SysNAND is still on 4.0.1 and is clean (I think I launched CFW once and then immediately rebooted after doing nothing). I also have a clean backup. My EmuNAND has been updated to 6.1 via ChoiDuJour. I know SX OS doesn't support the new 6.2...

    Hacking A few questions before I install SXOS

    Ahh, you're just saying keep the switch offline all the time when in EmuNAND and bring it online when you want to play online in SysNAND? I thought you were saying keep the Switch online always.

    Hacking A few questions before I install SXOS

    I don't understand the "stay offline" advice everyone says. Isn't that exactly the same as getting banned? What's the point? I'm thinking of getting SX OS to set up EmuNAND for offline backups of all my single-player games (I lose catridges easy :( ), then updating my stock for the games I...

    Hacking How does SX OS Emunand work?

    Thank you for the tutorial! However, I'm confused about something. I've never hacked my Switch, so I'd skip step one ("Clean up sysnand"). But the next step says to update sysnand. Isn't it bad for me to update before I've hacked? My Switch is still on 4.0.1. I've been told by others that...

    Hacking How does SX OS Emunand work?

    So I have a Switch on 4.0.1. I have not hacked it in any way. No CFW, SX OS, Atmosphere, etc. I want to play Smash Bros Ultimate online. I also want to be able to back up all my games so I don't have to carry around cartridges when I travel. I don't care if there is no online option. Does...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Hey everyone, I'm a longtime 3DS/Wii U/Wii CFW user. I'm considering hacking my Switch. I have a launch day switch running 4.0.1. From what I understand, this is golden. However...I also really want to play the new Smash Bros Ultimate online. My understanding is that if I update normally...

    Homebrew Would Backwards-Compatibility be Possible with Homebrew?

    Yeah, I'm going to say it's impossible for the Switch to ever emulate a Wii U. You need a big performance lead to be able to emulate another architecture and run it's software at full speed. GameCube and Wii are even questionable. The Wii U can run GC/Wii software because it shares the...

    Homebrew Would Backwards-Compatibility be Possible with Homebrew?

    I'll try to answer this: There's two cases: (A) We unlock "Homebrew" on the Switch- custom code can run. (B) We actually "Jailbreak" the system, such as a custom firmware, to run unsigned code (or sign our own code). Scenario A allows emulators and the like. Scenario B allows actual Nintendo...

    Homebrew Question What will be the latest Emulator working on Switch?

    The 3DS is definitely far easier to emulate from a hardware perspective. Especially because both the 3DS and Switch use ARM processors; similar architecture, way less work to translate I would imagine. (You still have to worry about different GPU architectures though.) However, from a...

    Homebrew Switch Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

    Dumb question: What are the technical hurdles to making a Switch flashcart? I used DS flashcarts and 3DS flashcarts back in the day. There's a lot of effort towards making a software exploit at the moment. Is it harder to make flashcarts for the Switch?

    Hacking Dock Hacking

    I knew it was a moonshot, but I really had hoped Nintendo would implement Thunderbolt 3 on the Switch. Would've been really neat if, 2-3 years down the line, they could release an external GPU dock that does 4K.

    Hacking Who hasn't yet installed arm9loaderhax? Why?

    I've done it on three 3DS's now (my o3ds, my wife's n3ds, and then I got myself a n3ds). I understand the laziness- it honestly takes me about 6-8 hours to set up. (~6-7 hours setup, then another hour to get all my stuff loaded back on right.) But oh man, is it nice. It's, to me, the...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    So I've got a CFW AuReiNand 4.2 o3DS, and I'm in the process of softmodding (to the same) a new 3DS XL. There are several games installed from CIA. Afterwards, how do I move my data over from the old to the new? Will the System Transfer from Nintendo work? Should I first reinstall all my games...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Hey guys, was looking for a little help. Sorry :( So I have two 3ds': My o3ds, and my wife's n3ds. I performed the same process (following this guide) to set both of them with AuReiNand CFW. I'm on 4.2 as of yesterday (was 4.0 before), she's on 4.0. We are both on system update 10.7. We've...

    To an extent? Melee is one of the most competitive eSport fighting games out there alongside Street Fighter and Marvel vs Capcom. It's huge. We just had MLG and Evo this year. http://gfycat.com/KindheartedCookedBluetonguelizard Notable matches: The documentary:

    Hacking Wii U support in Dolphin

    Very interesting. Thanks for the correction! Sorry for my incorrect statements then, I didn't know the Wii U worked differently. I'd just assumed an emulator would still be working at a hardware level and running software on top of it, like the Intel emulators for PowerPC Macs way back in the...

    Hacking Wii U support in Dolphin

    If it's that different, why did the Dolphin team add Wii support to their GameCube emulator rather than develop it? Similar hardware lets you use it as a starting point.
