With full privileges can we run our own unsigned updates or would we be screwed on that because they still aren't signed by Nintendo? Sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm going off of the ps3 scene years and years back. But with that we had the keys to sign our updates and disable signature checks.

We don't know exactly. I'm guessing here, but I don't think they have access to the trusted zone so I don't think that's possible.

They have it dumped, just as with the kernel. They don't have any actual exploits into it, IIRC.
Does that mean they can like read the chip where it is stocked via a computer but cant acces it through the console? Rigjt?

TrustZone isn't where problems arise. We don't/won't have the keys from 3.0.1 and future updates, so while you can run unsigned updates, they won't match to Nintendo's because you won't have a key-match. From here on, 3.0.1+, and 3.0.0 and lower, will grow apart.

    GBAtemp should be legally obligated to ban them, as its against the law to collect information from users under 13 because of COPPA. :tpi:

    VR is like 3D TVs in my opinion it's cool and all but it doesn't have enough great content.

    VR had the chance to integrate with existing games and tech but VR companies said "NO, I WANT MY SHIT TO BE STANDALONE AND MY GAMES EXCLUSIVE TO FACEBOOK"

    Back when Oculus Rift was still starting out and being demoed around, they modded existing games to use it as a 360° immersive screen thing and that was AMAZING.

    The tech isn't there for affordable power enough VR headsets at a good market value yet sadly, oculus had a good idea but didn't have enough funds for marketing iirc

    But now it's "can I use my VR set with my racing games, that would be neat?" "ONLY IF YOU USE OUR DILDOSTICK CONTROLLERS AND RUN THE GAME ON OUR ANDROID-UNDERPOWERED BRICK"

  • Veho @ Veho:
    The tech to have quality VR goggles at an affordable price is here, but every set has to have 4 additional controllers and be standalone.

    These are the same type of gamers that spend $2,000 on a GPU when a $600 GPU gives nearly the same outcome which is what the market looks at for them to do spend more on unneeded bs

    If we're talking AAA titles a vr headset would be priced at nearly the same cost as a midrange gaming pc maybe even double

    I think they should bring back the shutter glasses for VR put 120Hz screen in for 60FPS and even a basic phone these days can pull that off

    Head tracking cameras and all
