    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    well, it would be more than nothing, and would at least require non-public knowledge (ie. a password). Google can tell you how to install hshop in a few seconds. It cannot tell you a parental controls password (though yes, I assume you could just force it with time). 1762280567 Is there a...

    Hacking 3DS NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Is there such a thing as parental controls for hshop? I was thinking of giving a family friend's kid a 3DS as a present (they say that its been asked for) and I would rather just mod it to help them out with games that aren't available anymore, but I wonder if there is something I can do to stop...

    Who wins the console wars for the WORST game quality overall?

    I hate to beat an old drum, but I feel it not often stated enough; The CD-i is not truly a "console" in the sense that a super NES or playstation is a console. CD-i was and is a format, a variation of CD, the same way that VCD or CD+G are variations of CD. There is not meant to be any practical...

    Want to hire someone for CFW Installation Service. Any Recommendations?

    Simple question, I have a slim PS3 (CECH-2001A) and want to put CFW on it. I'd prefer someone else do it for me and am willing to pay. Does anyone have a recommendation for who to hire for this job? If you can do it or know someone who can, I'd appreciate if you'd send a PM. If this is not...

    Game Boy: How to make pictures of game levels?

    I am playing a GB game called Dirty Racin' and am interested in making a screenshot of the in-game map for the race tracks in this game. I have seen similar in-game maps for games like Pokemon Red/Blue and Zelda GB. Is there some particular technique for doing it? Is it unique to the game and to...

    Hardware How much money do we actually need for a decent gaming set up?

    Definition of "decent" varies wildly. Would free online games be enough? If so, a used computer could be decent. Okay with piracy? A world of opportunity exists for you, sometimes without even downloading games. Or maybe a deck of cards is all you need for a decent gaming setup. If you wanted...

    Mario 64 Render96 3DS - How to change deadzone

    I have been playing Mario 64 again on 3DS via the Render96 port. I have noticed that I will let go of the circle pad, but mario will tiptoe around like it is still being pressed. This seems like a disconnect between the 3DS hardware deadzone and the mario 64 programmed deadzone. Is it possible...

    Can anybody help me with this issue? I am still unable to resolve it. Could you share with me how to do that? Maybe the Vita will succeed where my PC seems to fail in formatting correctly.

    game boy micro link cable wiring color coding

    Thought I would circle back on this since I have since done the work to success. As it turns out, the colors from my cable were extremely similar to the normal GBA cable. The color-pin relation were as follows: pin 1 - blue pin 2 - red pin 3 - orange pin 4 - brown pin 5 - green pin 6 - thick...

    How can I get better battery life out of my game boy micro?

    I've been using my game boy micro a lot recently, and have noticed the battery life is not very good. I have a new mahko 750mah battery and I mostly play NES games on the pocketnes emulator, running off the SZ Flash 4 mini SD card version. I have noticed that I only get maybe 5 hours in this...

    game boy micro link cable wiring color coding

    Nice resource. I had a chart but that is solid, so appreciated. I'm working on getting a good connection; I've been attempting to avoid desoldering the wires from the link cable PCB, but given how I'm struggling to get good connections there, it looks like I will have to do the work anyway...

    Looking for any info on the color of the gb micro link cable internal wires for the player 1 side and to see what pins on the plug side they correspond with. ie. red wire goes to pin 3, etc. I'm having a bit of difficulty accurately touching pins on the plug side with my multimeter, and so I...

    Some DSi Shoulder Button Questions

    What behavior should I look for using the multimeter? Also, I am surprised that L/R harnesses are, contrary to my experience (and yours, it seems) are hard to find on their own. Plenty of cheap whole units for sale however, so I will look at harvesting if needed. As you say, it looks like a real...
