    Gah, FedEx end of day delivery. The thing is a 5 hour drive away from my hometown. It's not hard to get it on a truck and to the location?

    Homebrew Hardware Question: I was charging my n3DS and accidentally spilled water on it.

    Definitely clean drinking water. Not salt water/similar. It's stuck in my dehydrator now, probably waiting a couple of days before I turn the beasty on. Luckily it's not a connected to an NNID system.

    Homebrew Hardware Question: I was charging my n3DS and accidentally spilled water on it.

    I have a giant thing of silica gel from another project. But I have a dehydrator and am running it on the lowest heat to help dry it out. (It's a fan with a heater in it). 35 degrees C. I hope it was done charging for the evening, but yikes.

    Homebrew Hardware Question: I was charging my n3DS and accidentally spilled water on it.

    Woke up at 2 am, got a drink of water. Spilled it, and I think I spilled it on the floor. I wiped it up, and went back to bed. Woke up, made breakfast and just now (12:30) picked up my 3DS only to notice water near the 3D slider and on the inside of the console near the buttons. Immediately...

    Argh...just dumped water on my charging n3DS. Woke up this morning to it not charging and now I'm drying it out. Hopefully it survived.

    Hacking Discussion Why UniversedoorNX is not okay in any form + Poll

    I feel like very few people/end users are going to hack the Switch. The 3DS - sure, because the system is cheap and it's easy to get another one. The Switch is expensive, plus online is tied to your account on the Switch. 90% of the average joe/jane users aren't going to risk a $379.99...

    What're your workout or weight goals?

    My current goal is to try to eat more vegetables and lean proteins. My dad eats like a picky 5 year old (little veggies, a ton of fruit), so it's hard to keep vegetables in the house before they go bad. It's also winter, which means green things ARE expensive. I've been trying to cut down on...

    Which was your first console ever?

    Game Boy with a Hong Kong roms cart. Mortal Kombat was one of the games on it. Terrible port, but I played the hell out of it for ages.

    Unpopular Opinions Time

    - Soulja Boy's pirated consoles are just a cash grab directed at people who don't know better. Eg. people who don't routinely game or fiddle with emulators. - The S/NES Classic was left easy to hack because Nintendo wanted to fuck over people who were selling reproduction cartridges for...

    Gaming What happens if you perform game-destroying glitches on 3DS VC games?

    I'm pretty sure the Missingno glitch just duplicated items in a certain slot, and screwed up Hall of Fame data. No data loss at all. Sometimes you accessed the Hall of Fame and it will freeze, but that just needed a restart. I remember doing that crazy amounts of time for infinite rare candies.

    Hacking Question about a DS Lite shim...

    Quick and dumb tutorial. - Pull apart the DS Lite - Pull the d-pad/membrane - Cut the cross shaped piece slightly smaller than the d-pad. - Use an one hole punch in the center (there's a circle shaped indentation) - Stick on your shim with permanent glue - I used super glue when I did this...

    Webcomic Temper Tantrums #13 - The Perfect Setup

    I installed a ton of SNES cias on my n3DS and then played a ton of Pokemon. It's still a Pokemon machine, although it was briefly a Monster Hunter machine (makes me want to go back and play MH3 on here)...

    Hacking What is the best use out of custom firmware?

    - modifying save files (there was on "work in progress" for Animal Crossing New Leaf, and there are a few that work well for Pokemon) - 3DS as a PC controller (I use it on some emulated games, as well as some other stuff) - playing rom hacks/whatever

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    For your R4
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, why?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
