Hi I've been looking into getting a second nintendo for playing US games, but I've been told by a friend I can play a US game cart on my EU console if I use homebrew?

I'm a complete noob, so could someone tell me if it's true/false? Thanks!

yes, either launch the games through hans or if you have a9lh/cfw then luma cfw can do it automatically

Actually, HANS is not required. The region free launcher works fine from the HBL.

You can't link that site here afaik. And all those titles are in freeShop cache except the latest Rabbids one. However, not all those titles have encrypted keys yet, so that's why they won't show in freeShop. You can encrypt them yourself or wait for the site author.

@TheCruel Just reinstalled freeShop. Set it up and it says "No cache entries found for your title keys. Try refreshing cache in settings. If that doesn't work, then your titles simply won't work with freeShop currently." I refreshed the cache using the Refresh Cache button in the Update tab and still the same thing. I looked in the cache folder and it only had 2 json files. genres and platforms. On my other console it also has images folder and data.json. I copied the images folder and data.json to the new install and now it works. Is the cache r43 broken or maybe the download function for the cache.

Think it may be a github problem.

EDIT: Yeah https://status.github.com/messages

We are investigating issues serving web hooks as well as assets on GitHub.com.

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.

    Either that or their old games were unfinished aswell but we can't notice it
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So that version is semi rare
