    is it necessary to change capacitors in n64 carts?

    The capacitors in N64 carts rarely die or leak - ffs leave it be. Don't try and fix a problem that does not exist - it's best leaving them alone. When a cart dies then the first suspect is caps then after that look at the CIC chips. But wait for failure. Don't change em just because you think...

    Can anyone help me with possibly repairing my SNES?

    Shame you never ironed out the defective snes problems. Glad you have a solution though. I have to admit the N64 is my passion and I am forever collecting "spare" consoles just in case. I'm hoping Nintendo release a n64 classic - it might just sort out the N64 cart scene and stop the stupid...

    Any good sites to get replacment housing for retro consoles?

    I have a NES shell lying around. Was going to jam a wii into it and never got around to it. I can post it to you if you were to cover the postage buddy (I'm in the UK so take that into account - my she'll will be an EU one so stuff may be in different places)

    I made a quick video tutorial on how to add new games to the SNES Classic

    I can confirm a lot of titles are not booting. I don't know enough on the emulator but I'm guessing we may need to patch the ROM files to make them work. Disappointed that Mario Kart USA is not booting, Still - I have plenty of others to fight through. Side note :- spot on with the page...

    I made a quick video tutorial on how to add new games to the SNES Classic

    I followed your guide - easy to follow. I bunged on 43 of my all time favourites.... I have found that it will display half - then a folder icon. Hit the folder icon, get error C8, reset the device. Then the other half of the games are displayed. This will keep me going though untill...

    Hacking Possibly a Softbricked Vita -

    ok, Its my understanding that the vita stores some old parts of the firmware to avoid corruption and allow you to restore via safe mode. There is a method to make the vita think its on less than 3.60 running henkaku allowing you to do a QMCA restore. DO NOT TRY AND DOWNGRADE - That DOES =...

    Hacking VitaShell USB transfer not working

    If you have modded a phone on your PC and changed the adb driver for example..... this can break the usb mass storage option (if you used ODIN etc etc) Another item to consider is if the USB port is USB 1.1 - not good enough for VITA in my experiance, you need to use a USB 2.0 port. And...

    Hacking Should I system restore?

    No guide, but you can mixxy blob some how to videos. I.e FW 3.55 to 3.60 update using henkaku dns update The only difference is that you are using molecules Spoof setting to make the vita think 3.6 is the newest firmware. It used to be in the molecule bubble but has now moved to henkaku...

    Hacking Should I system restore?

    You could try a firmware restore.... That fixes most weird things. ---Caution this is pretty technical compared to most homebrew--- Set your DNS to the henkaku one (henkaku.xyz/usage) Once you have deffo set the WiFi DNS to henkaku updater.... Open henkaku settings. Set the Spoof to 3.59...
