Ok, I read somewhere that if you load preloader twice your system can get messed up. I have preloader 27 and for some retarded reason I decided to go on the preloader AGAIN! So far nothing has happened to me but I just want to make sure that my stupid "noob" self hasn't messed up my Wii. Can someone tell me I'm ok or not and what can happen? When I loaded it the second time it was installing, then it was loading the preloader and the Wii just restarted. Idk if preloader 27 has a safety thing where if idiots like me do this they're ok but I want to make sure I didn't f**k anything up...please?

I don't think it fucks up your wii. It should uninstall the older version first, then install the newer.

But I could be wrong, so don't sue me and bring me to Ace Attorney, I'm begging you!!

Installing Preloader multiple times will not mess anything up.

It will detect that there was a previous version and overwrite it with the newer version.

It is a good idea to run the hacks remover wad before reinstalling Preloader.

Sincerely,

Heh sounds like me, except I didn't flip out because I realized that it just did the same thing again.

What you should be worrying about is when the blue light turns red and you get a... RROD sort of thing but Nintendo style

Then before you do anything to your Wii. Read the tread about what it is that you are putting on your system FRONT to BACK BACK to FRONT or deep enough to where you see some real success of that hack/application your about to install. When somethings are release they have bugs in them that need to be fix by the coders. So let the pro's do their job and find the mistakes so they can be corrected and a new release may come out. Then those like you can be sure that what you have will work if you understand about what it is you have.

    Teraflops are not necessarily indicative of real world performance, especially when compared across different architectures. The Switch 2 will also be smaller/lighter than the Steam Deck so it's performance has to fit inside a much smaller thermal and power envelope. Using a 120hz VRR panel means 40 fps locks can be an option in handheld mode, which will be a noticeable upgrade over the current 30 fps standard on Switch 1. Games could also go uncapped and leverage VRR to keep things smooth.

    Call me a filthy casual but I really don't notice the difference between the last few generations of consoles, and pushing specs just for the sake of bragging rights is really pointless.

    Yea I think the HDR and 60fps+ have been the biggest noticeable improvements, along with faster load times/ ssd hd.

  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    Playing the devils advocate, o nstema deck I drop the FPS on most games to 30 due power conservation and tbh I see little to none difference to 60fps. I'd say the difference is in what one wants to believe

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I mostly play shooter games and after playing 120fps (on 120hz tv) most of the time, 60fps otherwise, its hard going back to 30fps, it feels like its in slow motion or screen stuttering.
  • False_Hope @ False_Hope:
    huh I can't tell the difference between 30 and 144 fps and I play with both '-'

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Steamdeck only 60hz, so 60fps max, but yea its whatever we get comfortable with.
