FBI has an awful UI and it's great for ruining a console with its ability to uninstall NAND titles.
It's a specialized tool, not meant for simple CIA installation.

DevMenu is way a lot better for that.

There is no *best*. Depending on your needs, it is essential to have both FBI and BBM(or Dev menu). FBI doesn't seem to handle DLC properly. At the same time, it does so much more, like install your choice of a bunch of different MSET rops... not to mention the ability to delete stuff so you can install older versions (I know it's supposed to give you the choice to do that automatically, but it doesn't seem to do that for *every system file)

I really like FBI and support open source. However, I've run into some strange errors on occasion that don't occur under BBM. I tend to use BBM more in real life situations.

I'll vote FBI, because open source.

FBI and BigBlueMenu are both great picks. I voted FBI because it's the one I'm using currently tbh. Although I should pick BigBlueMenu because the name sounds cooler to me. Eh, it is what it is. ^_^

I couldn't install DLC CIAs with FBI, but I could with BBM. That's good enough to get my vote.

    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
