Hacking Wii u and Wii U game pad hack talk to be presented soon at CCC/30c3

[Ray Lewis]

Just noticed I forgot to reply to that. The main difference is that we got a lot of stuff working *before* getting f0f's help. I think by the point we got access to all the private Wii U hacking stuff, we already had dumped the GamePad flash, reverse engineered all the Wi-Fi stuff, and had audio and input streaming working. It also took us only a week or so to get to that point. Compare that to Maxternal and friends building on f0f discoveries and taking months to implement a (fairly trivial) race attack.

Good points. Also, last I knew Maxternal has one core working and then updates stopped there. That is a key difference you pointed out, thanks.

i think the artifacts would be lessened if gamepad video processing was moved to a seperate processor

Yep, and that clearly shows you have no idea what you're talking about.

What am I missing, then?

Knowledge about video encoding, but most importantly self awareness of your own ignorance.

Actually, it's worse than that. Either he has a developmental disability that prevents him from comprehending clearly presented information, or he just doesn't give a crap and hasn't watched your talk, because you explained pretty clearly what is causing the artifacts.

This problem seems to be rather pervasive amongst most gbatemp users.

someguy offers mis informed idea . guys with right idea bash mis informed person , gaining likes from slightly less informed people. Just another day on this fukked up topic.

Dya hang around places you dislike much ? Or is there an element of "look at me im sandra dee" about it all.

its a teachable moment, for sure, but its really at the discretion of the teacher to determine what the student is capable of learning. in this case, i think the teachers decided not to cast pearls before swine.

Amazing demo and explanation about the Gamepad. I'm eager to see what comes of that in the future. At some point, I think it would be entertaining to have people just buying WiiU Gamepads just for PC use.

Just to give you an idea of how much that would cost (The gamepad is definitely a good chunk of the price of the console.)

It'd still be a good buy if you have a really powerful rig. The Gamepad has plenty of input stuff to make it a good controller for just about anything. If I had a nice PC with a huge steam library of games, I'd be buying it in an instant (of course, for that to happen the kinks need to get worked out so it accessible for the end user.)
Either way, PC gaming is already a pretty expensive hobby, so whats ~$170 to have a controller with remote play? Not to much in the end, i would imagine.

 

[pwsincd]

what do you expect that remote play is ? i wouldnt expect to get further than the same room.

Depending on your Wire Less configuration

Well if you just tweak the vertex buffer ordering you can get both results and efficiency

Is there a way to make the wii u gamepad/pro controller avaible with the snes/nes etc. emulators in vwii mode ?

No.

Gamepad screen, yes. Gamepad buttons, no (although MAYBE with a compatible USB WiFi adapter and some reprogramming) pro controller, yes but have to be programmed to use it.

I may have missed it but:
Can anyone enlighten me on whether all regions have the same hashes for the same versions?
http://libdrc.org/docs/re/changelog.html

And are all NTSC systems (JPN/USA) and PAL gamepads interchangeable?
In other words are both the DRH firmware and the DRC firmware considered All Regions?
