    Emulation Hardware 3DS emulation device in 2026: all my real 3ds are broken

    Quite shit. I'm cheap: about $50 is the most I'm willing to pay for a phone because they're all unsustainable junk, e-waste to be. Game phone is "Nokia" G100 with 4GB RAM, got the snapDragonBalls whatever chipset and octa-core something or other processor. (I use the quotes because it is some...

    Emulation Hardware 3DS emulation device in 2026: all my real 3ds are broken

    I give up. Everything's eventual as the great schlockmeister Steven King says. Eventually, the Thor will be $50 used. Then I'll get one. As for 3DS units, I imagine they will become "collectible" as more and more of them fall into disrepair and quality parts become scarce. Right now, the 3DS...

    Emulation Hardware 3DS emulation device in 2026: all my real 3ds are broken

    Yes, yes...I've seen the latest Anbernic rubbish: RG DS. It is can run DS games and 3DS games just choke and sputter unless all you want to play is Fire Emblem with all the animations turned off. I've tried azahar on all my phones and the performance is mediocre-to-poor but, more importantly, no...

    Where is the English version of DBI?

    Unfortunately, I find there are not a lot of choices for installers/rippers: in addition to being able to install/rip nsp, a good installer needs support for external drives with modern filesystems like exfat and ext4 (files larger than 4GB.) In my experience, DBI, Goldleaf, Sphaira all have...

    Bowser is retiring from Nintendo at the end of this year

    Big companies will always suck as long as they are feudally run. Might makes right. Fuck them all.

    Is it worth waiting for Switch 2 piracy?

    Hell No! I'll probably never buy a Switch 2. The Switch era was a turning point for me: I lost interest in all of N's franchise games because they're not getting better. The Switch Pokemon games were all gimmicks and bullshit; for the first time, I didn't want any Pokemon games in an entire...

    Custom BD-JB Cases

    I just use a CD jewel case from a local Office Depot/Staples store. They're always on sale because the store can't give them away. However, it would be fun to 2D print a cover paper image with Spyro The Dragon. It might be neat to ask some AI to draw me a BD-JB logo involving Spyro, but I'm...

    Gaming cozy grove strangely compelling

    Anybody like this game? I got it a while ago because it was cheap. It is supposed to be like Animal Crossing. The artwork looks like chunky barf, but somehow I got in the habit of playing this game before bed. (Subnautica and No Man's Sky didn't work so well as chill-out games.) So anyway, I'm...

    switch V1 got warm while charging on FW19, now fine after upgrading to latest

    Sometime around upgrading to FW 19.something my switch started getting warm in the dock. I tried charging it outside the dock and the back of it still got really warm. I figured the battery was just getting old so had started shopping for a replacement battery. I upgraded a few times to other...

    where to get cheap good luckfox devices?

    I got a another luckfox RV1103 device from Aliexpress for about $15. I was worried my main one could fail or get eaten by my insane plastic-munching dog. Came with a plastic case, ethernet wire and pointless USB drive. It also had two switches on it marked "A B" and "9.00 11.00" Well, all it...

    jailbroken Slim 9.60, original 9.00 both crash on wake up after pressing X

    Already did. I upgraded from 2.4b18 to 2.4b18.2 weeks ago. It doesn't seem any different.

    fake R36S from Ali and updating ArkOS....

    Well, it's been ok for a good while with a Walmart "Onn" brand 64GB card. The original no-name card it came with failing was expected: nothing from Aliexpress ever comes with a good card. 1737558918 The two 64GB "Onn" cards from walmart were about $10. I've had good results with "Onn" cards...

    jailbroken Slim 9.60, original 9.00 both crash on wake up after pressing X

    I think I might have finally found the problem. If I wake the PS4 using the PS button WITH THE CONTROLLER PLUGGED INTO THE USB PORT, sometimes this freeze happens after I press X. It's been more than 20 sleep/wake cycles on my PS4 Slim (9.60) and over 5 on the PS4 original (9.00) and I have not...

    fake R36S from Ali and updating ArkOS....

    Err, I already went down that road. (Actually, I dd-ed individual partitions onto a new card and resized them using gparted, but I'm sure doing the whole card will work as well.) I did the upgrade from the menu with the USB Wifi connected after that. Battery life and performance are good. It...

    fake R36S from Ali and updating ArkOS....

    I bought a fake R36S on Ali a while back and didn't notice it was fake until I started having problems with the (included 64GB no-name) SD card failing. I figured it would be no problem to go over to https://github.com/AeolusUX/ArkOS-R3XS/releases and just write the disk image to a new 64GB...

    jailbroken Slim 9.60, original 9.00 both crash on wake up after pressing X

    Well, I tried the instructions from post #2 and, after a looong period of stable suspend/wake cycles (more than 8 times), it finally crashed again when I tried to wake it up. I had let it sleep a while longer, 24 hours+ since I was too busy to play games. I have the PS4 plugged into a UPS...

    jailbroken Slim 9.60, original 9.00 both crash on wake up after pressing X

    I have two PS4s and they both seem to go to rest mode ok, but then they freeze up solid right after I wake the console using the controller. First I press PS, then it asks to press X to select user and then...freeze. This happens maybe half the time, although I do sometimes have long periods of...

    good third party controller

    So I bought an el cheapo USB PS4 controller from the Amazon. Everything seemed fine at first. But then I upgraded my hard drive which required me to reinstall the OS. I had to press the PS button but it wouldn't work. Every other time I had to press PS, it works; but not at this utterly crucial...

    upgrading working dumped game results in NP-32046-5 error

    I own the disc to No Man's Sky "Beyond" (ver 2.01) and I dumped the game using Itemzflow and, having built the PKG, I installed it to disk. It's a lot faster loading and just more convenient running it from ssd. I'm on FW 9.00. Then I tried to upgrade to 3.75 (the last version allowed on 9.00)...
