For Checkpoint, all we have to do is create a folder switch on the root of the SD card, put Checkpoint and put back the SD card on the switch? And it will be all done? I would just want to edit my Smash bros ultimate savegame to unlock the characters (will it make me ban if I pay a online subs later?) (and same for mario kart 8 deluxe)

Yes, they can ban you in game for save editing.

I'm banned in game from Super Smash Bros Ultimate since 2018 for save editing, also they will ban your account too so it means you need new console and new account to play online.

If you are interested in mod chip - you can request to find someone to install -

or create a thread so someone could PM you -

Thank you, but I think I'll just play my game in vanilla configuration :( since, maybe, I'll play online later

Thank you Linuxares for deleting my test post. I didn't make the rules so... go figure...

For others coming across this post, Checkpoint generates the sav files (6 folders according to each save slot) and any of these can be edited on the Marc Robledo online editor (do a web search) then saved back onto the original Checkpoint folder where it came from, and then restored using Checkpoint again. Assuming one was using the right user to back up and same user to restore, and not using applet mode, it works very well. Bear in mind that one should not use values outside of normal game range, for example, I think the maximum of spirit orbs is 124 so, if one enters 999, it crashes.

    VR had the chance to integrate with existing games and tech but VR companies said "NO, I WANT MY SHIT TO BE STANDALONE AND MY GAMES EXCLUSIVE TO FACEBOOK"

    Back when Oculus Rift was still starting out and being demoed around, they modded existing games to use it as a 360° immersive screen thing and that was AMAZING.

    The tech isn't there for affordable power enough VR headsets at a good market value yet sadly, oculus had a good idea but didn't have enough funds for marketing iirc

    But now it's "can I use my VR set with my racing games, that would be neat?" "ONLY IF YOU USE OUR DILDOSTICK CONTROLLERS AND RUN THE GAME ON OUR ANDROID-UNDERPOWERED BRICK"

  • Veho @ Veho:
    The tech to have quality VR goggles at an affordable price is here, but every set has to have 4 additional controllers and be standalone.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    These are the same type of gamers that spend $2,000 on a GPU when a $600 GPU gives nearly the same outcome which is what the market looks at for them to do spend more on unneeded bs

    If we're talking AAA titles a vr headset would be priced at nearly the same cost as a midrange gaming pc maybe even double
