    Hardware N3DSXL failing POST, bottom screen flashes, power LED comes on briefly

    Once again, @TurdPooCharger, very grateful for your detailed help in this post and many others. To finish the story here: I ended up buying a used n3DS off eBay in great condition and doing a manual system transfer using ninfs by @ihaveamac, a GodMode9 NAND backup, and Decrypt9WIP’s Forced...

    Hardware N3DSXL failing POST, bottom screen flashes, power LED comes on briefly

    https://gbatemp.net/threads/new-3ds-xl-not-turning-on-no-lights.439525/ So lucky to have a well-known 5 year-old system with lots of experts and lots of people with similar issues! Makes me feel like there’s hope this will turn out okay. Digging some more into this... I wonder if the pin...

    Hardware N3DSXL failing POST, bottom screen flashes, power LED comes on briefly

    Thank you for your feedback! I tried carefully re-seating ‘em all again, but now it might be worse... just depends on what is causing the new behavior (see below). Thank you, too! I did not catch the mark on the slot; looks like maybe one of the pins is broken. Looking under a microscope, the...

    Hardware N3DSXL failing POST, bottom screen flashes, power LED comes on briefly

    Hi all, I took apart my N3DSXL a few days ago to clean the internals, especially the Circle Pad and B button since I was having responsiveness issues with them. (Curse you Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels! :rofl:) After reassembly, the system will not boot. I have attempted carefully...

    Homebrew Checkpoint - from flashcart to legit copy

    I don’t have a flashcard, so I can’t speak to compatibility for sure, but I don’t see why you could not write your flashcard save to a real cartridge. If Checkpoint does not work, this is what I’ve used to write .sav to real NTR card: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-twlsavetool-v1-0.412887/

    Hacking Removin a user from hacked Wii U

    @tmnr1992 after some digging, I found this helpful thread. What ended up working for me to delete an account linked with a NNID was the method outlined by @Txustra (thank you!) in that thread. See this post. It involved 2 steps: 1. By FTP, deleting the correct folder for the account to be...

    I'd like to know the answer to this question as well... time to do some digging.

    Hacking I deleted red tickets on FBI and now I can't boot the 3ds.

    Good advice, but even better: feel freer to experiment and explore after making a NAND backup. Having that can get you out of just about any mess.

    This happens to me in Phantom Hourglass occassionally as well. Sorry I don’t what causes it or how to fix it, but I am having the same issue.

    Hacking vWii USB Loader GX stuck on Initialize USB device screen

    Cyan has already greatly assisted you, but I just wanted to reiterate the important thing I think you should try based on my experience with USB Loader GX on vWii. Based on what you've told us, it seems to me your SD card is the one that has issues, like Cyan's last post mentions- you should try...

    Hardware USB Hardware mod possible?

    I have a multi-hard drive setup (Two 2.5" drives, 450 GB and 750 GB that would normally go in a laptop). The way I get around there not being enough USB ports/power to go around it by plugging the data ends of 2 Y-cables into the Wii U and the other 2 power ends into an external powered USB hub...

    Hacking My Passport Ultra Isn't Being Detected... (vWii)

    Correct; once again, I wondered the same thing, and my portable USB 3.0 drive enclosures worked just fine once I got more power to them. I firmly believe finding a Y-cable and using it should solve your problem.

    Hacking My Passport Ultra Isn't Being Detected... (vWii)

    Are you using a USB Y-cable? If I'm not remembering wrong, the Passport is powered through USB only and does not have a separate power supply. I had this same issue with USB-only powered portable drives and Y-cables fixed the issue. If Google can't tell you what USB Y-cables are I'm sure I can...

    Gaming Did you enjoy Twilight Princess for the Wii?

    My first experience with Twilight Princess was through the Wii version. (I did not learn until much later that there even was a Gamecube version!) I thoroughly enjoyed Twilight Princess for the Wii, and since from my perspective both versions are practically equivalent, I say let price be your...
