Ok on my vWII, I fired up Nintendont from my usb hdd, and it instantly showed all my gamecube iso's. I selected one game, and it hangs at Init Hid devices...

Idk if I'm supposed to have any additional files? I just took the latest .rar of Nintendont, and placed the app folder onto the root of my usb hdd. I've been using my PS3 Dual Shock on previous Nintendonts on the sd card. Does it create the file, or do I need that config again, and where exactly do I place it?

Anyway, this is what I get, and it just hangs...

Is the first partition (with all games and the app) a Fat32 partition with 32kb cluster size, primary and set active?

Still not working for me, hanging still at init HID devices.

1. I place (controller.ini) on the root of my usb hdd
2. I plug in my USB PS3 Dual Shock, into the usb port just underneath the SD card slot of my Wii U (Wii U is standing)
3. I enter Nintendont via the Homebrew Channel
4. When my games list pops up, I press the PS button on my PS3 Dual Shock, and all 4 led's blink
5. I select a game, and it just hangs at Init HID devices, while all 4 led's continue to blink on the controller

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    lmao

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
