Am I mistaken, but I thought that backup games could be converted to .wfbs file format, placed on a FAT partition HDD, and played through either WiiFlow, USB Loader GX or Config USB Loader. I thought that you didn't have to format the HDD....am I wrong?

    Apple DS sued by Nintendo

    @NinStar, Depends on what is comfortable and right for you. For me, my hands are not the manliest in the world (haha) they're quite small. What comes to mind in terms of handhelds, the most comfortable has to be the 2DS. Not only does the corners not dig into your palms but it's probably my favourite in terms of ergonomics. The buttons are made out of a soft plastic, not too mushy to press, a huge advantage over the 3DS. Doesn't feel too bulky and it could be compared to the DS Lite.
  • D @ DemiV:
    when the xbox series was launching, phil spencer or someone else there did say that targeting smaller hands improved the ergonomics of the controller for more people.
  • D @ DemiV:
    that's phil, though. the guy is always targeting small hands,
    can't go within 500ft of a school.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    @SylverReZ, The 2ds is definitely the one people find the most comfortable lol. People with big hands love it and it looks like people with smaller hands love it too. I find holding the normal DS/3DS consoles more comfortable and I prefer their build quality. The 2DS looks smaller when you hold it because you hold onto the whole console, not just the bottom, but it's actually the right size. The problem I have with it though is that the screen is a bit too small and holding the entire console while looking at a just few small screens makes it a bit less practical imho.

    @DemiV, Huh, he definitely made a good job, it's the perfect controller to hold for my hands. A bit on the heavier side though.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Wouldn't a ps controller be more comfortable for small hands
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    @K3Nv3, Hmm, it would be but the thumb stick is way too far and I have to stretch my finger to reach it and it's a bit uncomfortable
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Xbox stick is in the perfect location though and this basically sold be the entire controller
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Compared to the og Duke controller
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Wait I was talking about modern controllers lol, never tried the og but I'm curious to see how big it'd be in my hands lol
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Even DS4 shouldn't be that far apart
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Original PS controller (both with or without sticks) is absolute perfection
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    I don't think I'll ever find a more perfect controller to hold
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    DS3 triggers were garbage
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Never had a PS3
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Doesn't look much different from the PS2 controller at least in pictures
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Aside from a few buttons
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    They had a spring back function that always felt too slippery

    yeah it was a pretty straight forward iteration on the dualshock 1/2 compared to 4 and the dualsense.
  • D @ DemiV:
    aside from the sixaxis motion and aforementioned queer triggers.
