    Tinfoil installs usually fail upon booting. Why?

    Most of the games I download and install from Tinfoil fail. The game is added to the main menu, I click to open, and it fails - booting me out to main menu. If I get the .nsp from another source and manually install it, the same games work fine. Tinfoil used to work flawlessly. What could be...

    EZ Flash Omega + Analogue Pocket firmware

    I have an EZ Flash Omega. If I run it on an original GBA or a DS Lite it loads up fine. It is updated to v1.09 But with the new Analogue Pocket the EZ Flash Omega asks every time to update from v1.07 to v1.09. If I hold R and boot it seems to update, and then asks this question again. No matter...

    Hacking emummc not recognised... windows now sees partition!? 'unknown pkg1 version'

    I updated to latest Atmosphere etc. but now hekate gives me a 'unknown pkg1 version' / 'emummc corrupt' message on attempted boot. The emummc folder is still intact on the sd partition, but weirdly if I put the SD card into windows, windows now sees the emummc partition as an actual empty fat32...

    Hacking Updated to 9.1.0 on Choidujour + Atmosphere emummc: now black screen!?

    I have a partitioned SD card, with my emummc on a fat32gb partition. I used Choidujour to update to latest firmware. I chose the fat32 option. After it installed it went to reboot and will now not load at all. I can get sysnand back up, and the atmosphere/hektate logo shows when booting, but it...

    Hacking Which backup files should I bundle when I sell my 3DS XL?

    I am selling my 3DS XL (I upgraded to another model) and want to bundle all the original backup files for the buyer. I originally hacked my 3DS waaaaaaaay back when it was Gateway entry, and updated to all the other exploits as I went along. Having just hacked my New 3DS I realised that I don't...

    Homebrew Hacking *New* 3DS and then transferring from old hacked 3DS XL

    I have an old 3DS XL. It is hacked with many many CIA games, retroarch forwarders, as well as GBA and DS installs. A few games were bought from eshop. I am thinking of getting a NEW 3DS unit, hacking it and then transferring everything over, basically to replace my old unit with something more...

    Homebrew Suggestion A SNES Classic emulator (Canoe) port?

    There has been a LOT of work going on in the SNES Classic/Mini community to get all SNES roms running on the inbuilt emulator, known as Canoe. The Hakchi builds that sync with the SNES Classic are still being updated. I would love to see the entire emulator ported over to Switch homebrew. There...

    ROM Hack Save game backup/restore on 5.02 -> BOTW WiiU conversion?

    I read on GBAtemp some time ago about a save game backup/restore payload. I also read somewhere else about a save game converter for BOTW WiiU saves. Has anyone successfully moved their BOTW saves from WiiU on a 5.02 firmware Switch? If so, what do I need to go about doing this at the moment...

    Hacking Way to get Japanese eShop in UK?

    I have a UK Wii U. I would like a game that was only released in the Japan eShop. I have searched around and it seems like the region lock means I couldn't play this game - without a region free hack. But is there any way to get into the Japanese eShop in the first place? What are my options...

    Hardware Grips for joycons / handheld: what are current options?

    I just bought a Switch. Very happy with it, but I am getting really intense hand cramps. I have searched around for some simple grip options. Something that could snap onto the joycons and act as some extra support. I assumed there would be some products out there already. The best thing I have...

    Hacking DSTWO battery use while idle

    I have been keeping my DSTWO cart in the slot permanently. I know it uses more battery than other flashcards when in use, but does it use battery while it just sits there idle? The 3DS console recognises that it is in the slot, so I wonder whether it might use some battery while idle. Any idea?

    Homebrew 3DNes -> 3DS homebrew ports?

    The online 3DNes project allows people to play custom skinned NES games in 3D. It looks amazing. Any slight tiny possible chance that these could be ported to 3DS Homebrew? Or have I been drinking too much crazy juice?

    Hacking Is A9LH likely to get easier?

    I am a relatively happy Gateway user on an old 3DS booting through MenuHAX loader and multiboot thingy. I usually keep up with changes/updates to the mod/hack scene, but A9LH is far too imposing and I just don't have the time to spare to install it. The instructions are insane, and I still have...

    Homebrew 3DS > Wii emulation switching

    This is probably not a new idea, but it only came to me today, and worked a charm. I have an old Wii permanently plugged into my TV, which I use occasionally to play SNES emulation. I realised that I could setup the SD card on my 3DS to function for the Wii too, just by copying a few folders...

    Hacking A save game encryption solution?

    Did anyone ever come up with a viable solution for the 6+ vs 4.5 savegame encryption problem? I could never downgrade my system for Gateway because I started at 8.x and my savegames for things like Zelda and Animal Crossing wouldn't work on a lower system number. So inevitably I got stuck...

    Hacking There is an urgent need for 3DS brew FAQs

    Some great work going on in the 3DS homebrew/hack community. Only problem is, that unless you are willing to search through and read a bunch of random threads on here it is often really hard to keep up to date with what is possible. For instance, Cell9's Savegame Manager tool looks great. I am...

    Hacking NV ram exploit on OLD 3DS 9.2?

    As usual with Gateway stuff I am not entirely clear about something and don't want to screw up my 3DS I have an OLD 3DSxl with sysnand 9.2. I have been using the browser exploit to load into Gateway. I have separated my sysnand and emunand. I cannot downgrade my sysnand to 4.5 because of save...

    Hardware Buying a N3DS on UK Highstreet?

    Where can you buy a N3DS in the UK? All high street stores seem to be empty, and let's face it, there are very few places on the high street you can buy video games and hardware any more. If I want to check serial numbers, where can I find one?

    Hardware Good carry case for New 3DS? (not XL)

    Finding a carry case for the New 3DS is turning out to be tricky. There seem to be loads for the New 3DS XL/LL, but Google and Amazon are not turning up anything good for the new smaller edition to the family. I usually have a zip case with room for some games, but would also be happy with...
