    ROM Hack playhistory.dat timestamp

    I used 3ds-save-tool (disa-extract.py) to extract the files out of the container file. I also threw together the attached gm9 script to make it easier to repeatedly get the file off of the device. Edit: Yeah, it's true that pld.dat also has the data, and the timestamp values in there are...

    Which flashcard would be the best from these ones for a ds lite (price is the same for all of them)?

    It's hard to tell from the pictures, but things that I'd look for are "SDHD" compatibility, otherwise it might only support up to 2GB SD cards. Also, if you have a DSi or 3DS and you want to use it there, only some of these might work. Take a look at the comparison chart here...

    Open-world adventure game 'Tchia' gets release date

    Yeah the "open world" part of all of these games really annoys me. The art style doesn't bother me at all, and in fact parts of the world look really nice and definitely fun to explore. The thing is, I don't have time for more than 1-2 open world games a year, and I doubt this will be one of them.

    Nintendo Direct - Feb 8th - Metroid Prime and Baten Kaitos remaster

    Prime Remastered is way more than just a remaster. It's really good. My only complaint so far is that there are little wall mirrors in the Chozo Ruins that used to show Samus's reflection, and now they only show the room behind her. I guess Samus is a vampire now?

    ROM Hack [Release] Picross S (Picross E9 mod)

    This is amazing work. I can understand why the project is on hold, but being able to install this alongside the full picross e 3DS collection is extremely satisfying. I'm working my way through them all now. :)

    ROM Hack playhistory.dat timestamp

    So, I think I figured it out, or at least I'm getting very close. But it's bizarre, and I'm hoping someone can help me make sense of it. Basically, here are the steps for interpeting PlayHistory.dat's timestamp values: Read the 4 byte value as an Integer¹ Multiply it by 3.75 Add it to...

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
