alright after this I'll dip for two weeks like I said I would but
Today I installed a program from the UniversalUpdater.3dsx for forwarding .nds files into .cia files to play on the 3ds itself. Once I installed it, I accidently forwarded BOOT.nds into a .cia file. I didnt think much of it and went into GodMode9 to rip my ds games. After I was done and ready to play said ds games, I rebooted the console. It got to the splash screen I had installed and, as I speak, it's now stuck on a black screen with a blue light. To clarify it's not the softbrick when the blue light flashes for a second and turns off. The blue light hangs along with the black screen.

Rookie mistake or unrecoverable brick? Please help!

It'spretty simple.
Just hold the power button for long time. Then stopp and press again for looong time. Sould turn off then.
And if that doesn't work, just take the akku out. :D

I know how to do that and ive done it miltiple times before. I just don't know how to make it stop. I can't play any of my games because I cant get past the my splash screen.
I think I'm gonna install a new boot.nds file. Should fix everything.

    At least PS5 finally getting some games, nothing that great tho, ofcourse Sony don't have the studios like MS does.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    They're getting copy and pastes
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Why does this sound so much like Castlevania https://youtu.be/fyDFrWo0uRs?si=XUzhTT1xXc3fBezj
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Hopefully the new Digimon story gets released on the switch 2 as well.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    What made me love Story Cybersleuth when it came out for the vita was the portability. All the grind is not as fun if I need to look at the big screen.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I kind of feel like Nintendo learned from their poor excuse of a library which would explain the specs boost so more devs can work with it easier I suspect a bigger library
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Poor excuse of a library? Switch has over 12,000 games on it, where you been?
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I've taken over 12,000 shits but it's still shit
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    PS4 only has 3,477. N most of those were shit.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Okay but this isn't about Playstation or xbox
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Look at how much the play store has but people say that's shit
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There were/ are lots of good games on Switch, why else did the console sell over 150 million units.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Because it was targeted towards kids and parents assumed it's kid friendly
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    And cheaper
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You just enjoy your PS4\5 and "poor library", while us " kids" will enjoy a huge library of game choices. :P
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Yeah that's why I'm buying a switch 2 I say what something has which the switch does mostly have shit titles
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Don't know why you think I fanboy when I own every platform just not switch lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Btw, the average age of Switch owners are 20-30 years old, so doubt parents bought most those 150 million units.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    It's entire platform is targeted towards kids though lmao
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Sony and Xbox/PC just has more M rated titles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I know you not a single console fanboy but @kijetesantakalu042 not here to argue w you so figured I would
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Or you could just say yeah I agree and move on from it :teach:
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I don't agree that Switch has a poor library as you said tho. There are tons of good games.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'll never forgive microsoft for making Halo target a T rating instead of M now
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Compared to other consoles it kind of is switch just has like 6 main IPs worth any while and it makes them their money so
