    Nintendo Switch firmware update 18.0.1 has been released

    Oh, so there is, my mistake. I didn't notice that in the settings. Haven't had this system for long, to be honest. Didn't buy it brand new though. The less money Nintendo gets from me, the better.

    Nintendo Switch firmware update 18.0.1 has been released

    God forbid we can use folders or sort options on the home screen, or filters anywhere. Even the 3DS let you change the amount of icons on screen at once. Other options - such as skipping user select when you have only one user on the console or have selected a default, or not burying the...

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    I did. There are so many options that it gets confusing though. And so many guides. So I hope I checked the right guide (EDIT: I did, must have just skimmed it). The modern GBAtemp layout is a disaster to navigate, so that doesn't help. I'll have a look for the info on the RP2040-Tiny though...

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    Sorry if this has been answered but I've searched a bunch over the past few weeks, and this thread is super-long so it's hard to find any definitive answers. I recently got a Switch Lite and want to install a chip into it. My only real issue is what chip to use. I'd rather avoid soldering SMD...

    Zippo says Sonic heroes remake might happed

    It doesn't. I own a copy back from when it was released. To be fair, I haven't tried it on Windows 10/11, but I had some issues just running it under Windows 7 years ago (it worked, but didn't play nice out of the box). My biggest issue with the game is just that there's no proper snapping to...

    I'm looking forward to the Analogue Duo more but I still plan to get a Pocket. May as well, since I have practically everything else at this point...

    Steam walks back decision to ban visual novel after fan outcry, Chaos;Head Noah now available

    Good. Now if only they stopped banning other stuff, and started cracking down on all the low-quality garbage.

    Man who hacked Nintendo servers pleads guilty to charges, agrees to pay $250,000 in restitution

    Wouldn't be surprised if the CP was just 2D stuff, given how ridiculous the laws have become. Regardless, though he obviously deserved to get slapped down for hacking, especially after a warning from the FBI (I doubt most people get a warning, though I suppose it's different because he was...

    Microsoft reveals the next-gen Xbox console name as the "Series X"

    Aside from this little thing called "subjectivity", I happen to like mini-ITX enclosures, and sometimes a plain, black box with minor embellishments is all I need. But contrary to that, I have builds in larger PC cases (NZXT H500 and the giant Corsair Obsidian 1000), and more I'm going to buy...

    Pokemon Company continues to pursue Sword/Shield guidebook leakers, court allows for subpoena

    Absolutely pathetic. There's still no proof, at least publicly, that these people were under NDA. Don't Nintendo have something better to do, such as kissing China's ass more?

    Microsoft reveals the next-gen Xbox console name as the "Series X"

    Looks like a nice, simple little box, but Microsoft's marketing is STILL bloody awful... Still, all their games are now being made available on PC (and Steam, as well), so I still have no reason to buy an Xbox.

    The Pokemon Company has filed a lawsuit against those who leaked pre-release images of Sword/Shield

    Fuck Nintendo and fuck Game Freak. Those idiots can't make a good game. They lied multiple times to their customers and were finally exposed with hard evidence (which some morons still deny). They're only suing to try to prevent the bad reputation they've been accumulating over the past few...

    Hardware Urgent Help Needed with Xbox 360 S Resistor

    Update: I fixed it! Woo! It was precarious and God only knows how good the solder joints were (they didn't look good at all), but it works and that's all that matters. I found that there are some little solder joints just north of the resistors, but the other side goes straight to the CPU/GPU...

    Xbox's Phil Spencer discusses toxicity in gaming and how to combat it

    Perhaps, but "being mean" isn't a reason to just start banning people and punishing them. You can mute and block people. Use that instead of having a nanny state (or company) looking out for you. This is how we end up with shitty legislation that makes society into a bigger shithole than it...

    Hardware Urgent Help Needed with Xbox 360 S Resistor

    I tried lightly scraping before I posted this thread but either they're too thin or just very fragile because I'm not getting much of anything, unfortunately. A bit late now unfortunately since I've removed the resistors already but I appreciate the input nonetheless. I think my soldering iron...

    Hardware Urgent Help Needed with Xbox 360 S Resistor

    It's not. It may look ugly, but it's not dead. It was working fine before I knocked off the connection I'd made (clearly already weakened before I even removed the resistor from what I can only assume was heat damage from the heatsink). It's just that one trace that needs to be joined up, so...

    Xbox's Phil Spencer discusses toxicity in gaming and how to combat it

    Censoring people because they said mean words and hurt someone's feefees is always an issue.

    Hardware Urgent Help Needed with Xbox 360 S Resistor

    I've been trying to fix this blasted Xbox 360 Slim for ages now and finally came across a fix that involves replacing resistors R4D3, R4D4, R4D5, R4D6, R4D7 and R4D8. I saw a recommendation to bridge the connections instead if you don't have correct replacement resistors (I currently don't but...
