    Anybody here ever shopped at AliExpress???

    I have more than 100 orders from Aliexpress so far and only three have not turned out as expected. One was too good to be true, one was a dud from a store I've successfully ordered before and one was a bad phone screen that was LCD, not AMOLED as OEM screens. In every case Aliexpress has sided...

    Comment by 'enarky' in '20 years…'

    Similar story here. I've seen so many sites come and go during that time. And to think I was already member #30.000 or so back in the days. I sometimes wonder if @Costello or someone else keeps a statistic of how many people in the 2002, 2003, 2004, et cetera cohorts are still logging in.

    Hacking Hardware MigSwitch, i just recieve my sample.

    They do everything to make it look like it works like the flash cards we know from the DS (maybe 3DS, but things were going downhill already) and before, which it just doesn't. Their marketing is dishonest, that's what I would say. With its limitations it's a product that should never have been...

    EZ-Flash's new Nintendo DS flashcard Product Images with Information

    These comments were quoted and attributed to @lifehackerhansol who also posts in this thread. I hope he doesn't mind, but I think he's currently the leading experts when it comes to DS flash cart tech. I'm curious where he made these.

    Make custom cartridge adapters for SNES that allow's other game consoles/handhelds to be played on the system.

    MSU-1 video is very low FPS and highly compressed, it gets decompressed on the SNES side, AFAIK (might be wrong, though). Bandwidth is not that much on the cartridge port of the SNES, here's a more in-depth discussion on nesdev.org forums on why Super Game Boy Color isn't possible.

    Make custom cartridge adapters for SNES that allow's other game consoles/handhelds to be played on the system.

    That only uses the SNES as a glorified power supply and base to stand on, with its own video out. I'm completely with you there, btw, it's only that I'm convinced it's not even technically feasible if you want to use the SNES for anything else than supplying power and controls.

    Make custom cartridge adapters for SNES that allow's other game consoles/handhelds to be played on the system.

    All of it is limited by the SNES cartridge bus. For anything that connects via cartridge bus and does its operations completely on a cartridge the whole image readily rendered needs to be transferred to the SNES to display 60 times a second. That is barely fast enough to transfer the Game Boy...

    Further information about the upcoming Nintendo Switch "Mig Switch" flashcart has been revealed

    Interesting speculation from @hexkyz in this Twitter thread: https://nitter.net/hexkyz/status/1740168835607773473 Especially #5: Not France, Germany. There's a Max Louarn associate from Germany, Kim Schmitz. Source. Fuck Kim Schnitz.

    Flash cart for the Switch incoming?

    Security Trails shows a lot of interesting info for aftertimex.com: https://securitytrails.com/domain/aftertimex.com/dns - I have no idea how reliable their records are, because all other services only show Cloudflare - but why should Security Trails show a domain and an IP tied to that specific...

    Hardware What is the rarest DS Flashcart?

    Hey, are we posting out collections?I got a bunch of images of mine, I think the lose flash cart collection only misses the two DS X-treme cards and an Acekard 2i I got in the meantime. And a bunch of R4 clones, probably. Making an image of every single boxed card would take a while. In terms...

    So I want to play PS1 ISOs. What's the best approach?

    I guess I struck a nerve, @KleinesSinchen? CD-Rs and DVD-Rs degrade, that's just how it works. You would be the first person I meet that has never encountered bitrot in an optical media collection. You do your thing, I'll do mine and I'll surely don't want to force you to change your ways.

    So I want to play PS1 ISOs. What's the best approach?

    Bought my last 50 CD-R spindle a couple of years ago and it looks like it will last me a lifetime, currently. I honestly have no idea where I would go if I needed to buy a CD-R right now. CD-Rs and DVD-Rs are a thing of the past, they're even more prone to disc rot than pressed media, if you...

    So I want to play PS1 ISOs. What's the best approach?

    Honestly, I don't even know where to buy CD-Rs nowadays. ODEs like xStation are just so convenient, you slap the ISO on SD card and you're good to go and with a SD card big enough you can have close to the complete library accessible. Also no need to hope your laser is still good or any of the...

    Hacking Possible to Disable the Wii's (De)Flicker Filter?

    Thanks a lot, @NoobletCheese, for the very comprehensive answer to my question and the detailed example images with explanation. That must've taken quite some time to put together. Highly appreciated, thank you very much. The way I see it right now I'd rather live with the banding effects than...

    Hacking Possible to Disable the Wii's (De)Flicker Filter?

    Were there any new developments on dither patching since this post from @NoobletCheese? Tried it on Twilight Princess this morning and it seems to disable dither quite fine on the first glance, but from what I understand that's not an ideal method to disable dithering? EDIT: Twilight Princess...

    Homebrew app Emulator NGPGBA a new NeoGeoPocket emulator

    Wait. This is from 2022? I somewhat expected this post to be necrobumped from back in 2006 or so. Great to see you're still doing GBA stuff, @FluBBa. Can't wait to try this later.

    Reddit Mods and their Abuse of Power

    I moderate two small (10k) subreddits. In the end it's my decision what's on my sub and what's not. Sometimes you just can't avoid hurting someones feelings with all the consequences. In OPs case I don't see why a post shouldn't stay up, even when it's not related to the general topic. Mods...
