    Rumour? They are asking a question, not making a statement.

    Nintendo May Reprint ‘Super Mario All-Stars Limited Edition’

    I can believe that people bought that - you get an audio CD and a history booklet, as you say. What I can't believe is that people buy the VC games for around the same amount - and they come with nothing. Who are the bigger fools here, VC buyers or the buyers of a limited edition audio...

    Geohot: Full 3.55 CFW PS3 Jailbreak Is Working!

    That is speculation - nobody has evidence to support it or to refute it. What is fact is that OSS was removed after geohot published his work - not before, as someone claimed earlier in this thread.

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    You shouldn't force any options for 4:3/16:9 - and even if you want to then it isn't the job of CFG. Set the option to your TV shape in the Wii System Menu. If you want to stretch the image out of proportion then use your TV's controls, don't expect an option to be added to software for it...

    Geohot: Full 3.55 CFW PS3 Jailbreak Is Working!

    I'm not sure what that has to do with anything - the fat ps3 kept OOS way after the slim was released, as the timeline shows. OOS was only removed after geohots "work" on the PS3 fat.

    Umm, geohots exploit = January 2010. OtherOS removed = April 2010.

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    Yes, but 4.1 doesn't have any advantage, other than access to the SD card in the System Menu. 3.2 will work fine, as long as you add any recent IOS to the system. I'd go with 4.1 rather than 4.2 BTW - 4.2/4.3 add absolutely nothing but restrictions.

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    Well cfg isn't reading from the drive if it is just sat at the menu, so I'm not sure how. Are you sure the drive doesn't just make that noise as it parks the heads before powering off? "Safely remove" in windoze just makes sure there is no access to the drive before you remove it. As long as...

    PS3/PSP private keys released.

    I don't remember sony ever saying that the PSX would have a ten year life cycle, but you could still buy PSX stuff in the UK in 2005, ten years after launch.

    Hacking Need some help with FAT32 HDD over NTFS HDD

    What happens in the future if a game that does interest you comes out, and needs S/UNEEK to be playable? It makes no sense at all to limit yourself to NTFS when in this situation FAT32 can do everything it does, plus more.

    Hacking Need some help with FAT32 HDD over NTFS HDD

    As cobleman says above, the most obvious (and useful, to me) program that doesn't work with a NTFS drive is S/UNEEK. A FAT32 drive can be used on any computer running almost every OS and be safely R/W. It can be plugged into any console (PS2, PS3, Wii, X360) and be both R/W. A NTFS drive is...

    Hacking Need some help with FAT32 HDD over NTFS HDD

    Stick to FAT32 and you have pretty much universal support in all apps. If you use NTFS you are limited in support. Even NTFS is better than using WBFS partition though.

    PS3/PSP private keys released.

    There is a link on this very page explaining how to get into service mode. If you can't read that then I don't think this is for you.

    Dreamcast Power Supply (240v)?

    You can replace the power supply board in the DC no problems - I had a couple of Jap 110v DCs that I used a stepdown with. When the DC got a release in Europe I took a PSU board from a 220v Euro and put it in one of the Jap models. I don't know how much DCs sell for in Oz, but in blighty they...

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    Return to either CFG or the Wii System Menu, then use the power button on the wii remote. the drive won't be reading/writing when sat idle at either menu, so it is perfectly safe to switch off the wii. Not that I ever do, I just switch the wii of whenever and haven't had any problems - but if...

    Many hackers turn out to be terrible in a corporate setting, but they won't be hacking/cracking your product if they are on your payroll. See: NDS/Sky.
