    Hacking Semi-Brick

    So I hacked my Wii years ago and it was working completely fine. I haven't touched it in years and have moved twice since I last plugged it in. I just tried to set it up again and it just goes to a black screen. I can get into preloader, but when I try to go to the System Menu from there it's a...

    Homebrew Genesis Plus GX with new GUI

    Does anyone know what the image requirements are for the snapshots in GenplusGX. I put a bunch of 320x224 .pngs in the snaps folder, but none of them show up in the emulator, only the ones I've taken through GenpluGX do.

    Homebrew Genesis Plus GX with new GUI

    I've been wanting screenshots or boxart for the wii emulators for a long time. Didn't realize this had started to happen. Very exciting.

    Hardware Best Modchip to fix Banner Brick

    I found a place that sold the Wasabi DX with autoboot already enabled. Using that and the Universal Unbrick disc v4 I was able to delete the messed up wad and get my Wii running again. Hooray!

    Hardware Best Modchip to fix Banner Brick

    Thanks. That does seem easy to install. If it is true that none of the chips ship with autoboot enabled, could I temporarily put it on a friend's Wii, enable autoboot, and then put it on my bricked wii?

    Hardware Best Modchip to fix Banner Brick

    I banner bricked my Wii and wanted to know what the best and easiest to install modchip is that will give me a good shot at fixing this. I can get to the health and safety screen, but after that it goes to black. I need something that will enable autoboot so that I can autoboot the homebrew...

    Hacking L button my Ds is Dying

    Seriously cup your mouth around the button and blow on it. I've had the L and R buttons break on me on multiple DS's and blowing on it worked every time.

    Gaming GTA Chinatown Wars graphics

    In regards to the FPS confusion in this thread I am a professional animator/games developer and can explain this pretty easily. A frame rate isn't really a measure of the speed of a game. In terms of speed all that matters is that something is played back at the rate it was intended. This...

    Who watches the Watchmen ...trailer?

    Alan Moore didn't sign any movie deals away. He made the Watchmen for DC comics. Warner Bros owns DC, therefore Warner Bros gets to decide whether or not they make a Watchmen movie. Alan Moore doesn't get to say anything about it. It's all part of the unfortunate way intellectual property is...

    DS #2308: Myst (USA)

    The original was still images that popped from one to the other just like this one. Video was used few and far between and is present in this DS version. I haven't played the DS version, but that video makes it look to me like a 100% faithful port. I can't believe you can't switch screens...

    Nintendo's next handheld

    This misconception irritates me every time it is repeated. The N64 was significantly more powerful than the Playstation. The Playstation was 32-bit and the N64 was 64 bit. The Gamecube was more powerful than the PS2. The SNES was more powerful than the Genesis. It's not really until the DS/Wii...

    Team Ninja to Work on Wii?

    Awesome! I love me some Ninja Gaiden. I'd actually really like a new sidescrolling Ninja Gaiden as Ninja Gaiden 2 and 3 for the NES are two of my favorite games ever. But that's not gonna happen, so I'll just have to be happy with whatever 3D games they make in the future, which up to this point...

    Gaming List of ALL DS multiplayer-capable games

    We've had wifi tournaments in the past and I'm sure we will again. They're a lot of fun.

    Lameboy 0.10 released

    The scrolling lines that went through games like TMNT Radical Rescue and Ninja Gaiden Shadow (whenever you only had one life bar left) are gone. Huzzah!!!! This is a fantastic update!

    Best Console Ever?

    SNES! SNES! SNES! SNES! Link to the Past, Super Mario World, Super Metroid. Those 3 games alone already trump everything else other consoles have offered.
