Should i stay with 7.02? Or update to 9? And if i want to play say the most recent games, how would i go about doing that? Cause the reason i want to softmod, is due to the inevitable end of ps4's online service that apparently bricks it from digital and physical games.

you should update to 9.00, theres no good reason to stay on 7.xx since it was so unstable.

that's already been resolved with Official Firmware 9.00 which silently fixed the CBOMB issue so all of this games will still work even with a dead cmos battery. You dont even need to hack your ps4 to fix this anymore.

Goodie :) Softmodded it on 9 the other day. But there's one predicament, i previously deleted some of my purchased games back when on 7.02, and on 9, i need to update to use the store. Guessing there's no way for me to fetch the digitally purchased games anymore?

    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

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    For your R4
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    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
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
