    Haven't used Switch in a long while, feels like something is wrong with Atmosphere

    I followed the instructions to update to latest Atmosphere, and boot into Switch. Fine. But many of my titles say "corrupted/check" and won't run. I can't seem to figure out what I have neglected to update. I am on the latest version of hekate.

    Accidentally snapped sd card in half, what to do now?

    So my micro sd card snapped, it's toast. I can get the system to boot up just find and was able to put basic luma+godmode on the boot, so I can see that stuff. But what should I do to truly restart?

    Any suggestions on why my friend's Wii U doesn't show up on TV when booting into Wii mode?

    So I borrowed my friend's Wii U with the goal of installing custom firmware on there for her. I did so successfully, but then realized when you go to play a Wii or Gamecube game, it won't show up on the TV, only on the gamepad. This was confusing me because my friend said it would boot onto the...

    If the Wii U is using component cables and playing a Gamecube or Wii game in 480p on a CRT, is it the same as using Gamecube/Wii hardware?

    I own a Trinitron CRT and my Gamecube, PS2, N64 (basically all retro systems) look great. Since the signal is analog and the TV is analog you basically have zero input lag. I am curious whether the Wii U acts the exact same as a regular Wii or Gamecube when outputting via the analog component...

    So do Virtual Console games run better in vWii than their Wii U VC counterparts?

    I saw a comparison video of Majora's Mask running on N64, Wii VC, and the Wii U VC. The best looking one in this particular case was Wii (imo). Is this the case for all virtual console releases, that they look better on vWii instead of Wii U. And does having shortcuts to these games on the Wii U...

    vWii will not show up on monitor or 4k TV unless I set the Wii U display settings to 480p

    I'm trying to figure out what the issue is. I've tried this on two TVs and a monitor, but it only displays vWii on the gamepad. The only way to get it to display also on TV is to set the Wii U settings to 480p. I don't like, it should automatically switch on the fly. Is there a solution...

    So installed Tiramisu without issue, couldn't figure way to make backups, removed Tiramisu successfully but Daily Log causes error 160-0103

    I've been following hacking guides for year and never had a brick or major issue. I followed the Tiramisu install guide to the letter. But I was admittedly stressed by how many methods there were to install Wii U, Wii, Gamecube games, different storage devices being preferred, etc. So I decided...

    What’s the best way of installing game? Is it on a USB or an SD?

    It’s 2022 and a lot of guides I see are pretty old. I understand the system is old but want the latest information. I recently installed tiramisu on the Wii U, but am unsure where to go from here. I can’t seem to determine if playing backups of Wii U/Wii/GameCube games is best when off of an SD...

    How is the Wii U's "DS" emulator? I've been wanting to add some

    I know that Nintendo did release a handful of DS games for the Wii U. But apparently putting other DS games on the system isn't the same as it is with DS games on a 3DS. I wonder why? Has anyone had much experience playing DS on the system?

    Super-stable 3D is not functioning correctly. How to send in with Luma?

    I’ve had my 3DS running Luma for a few years and I never really noticed that the 3D was off. I always figured it was that I was playing in a low light room. Well I go to calibrate Super Stable 3D and it simply says that it’s not functioning correcting. I can’t get default settings working or...

    3DS issue with Pokemon DS (real cartridge + rom) connectivity. Works one way, doesn't the other?

    So I have a New 3DS XL which I have had Luma on for a long time. I play all my backups right off the SD card, right off the menu (used a forwarder I believe). My friend purchased a regular 3DS and I installed Luma on there for her. The goal was for both of us to play Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver...

    Hardware Are using a BC PS3 and PS2 (both with composite cables) the same quality/performance on CRT?

    I have a CECHA01 PS3 (that's the launch one with the PS2 hardware built right in, not the software one). IF I use a composite cable, and plug it into a non-HD/non-HDMI CRT (I have a 27 inch Sony Trinitron), is the signal really coming out at true analog? If so, that means no latency issues? If...

    ROM Hack Twilight Menu, Pokemon, and local wireless?

    So I am having issues with being able to locally trade/connect two Pokemon games using Twilight Menu. When both games on 2 different Luma CFW 3DS go into the union room, they dont see each other. However, those two 3DS playing physical copies of HeartGold and Platinum do see each other and can...

    Homebrew What’s the best way to use Twilight Menu?

    For playing DS rims? This was my previous method: - Using an R4 SDHC flashcart. I made DS Forward shortcuts to the DS games for convenience. But there are some other ways that work and I wanna know which is overall best: 1 - Twilight Menu installed on the 3DS SD, and running DS games from on...

    Homebrew Been a while, what's changed with TWLoader?

    I haven't used my Luma 3DS in a while and recently got back into updating it. I use an older R4 card to run my DS games. Usually I would use TWLoader to run the R4 card itself, then run the games. At some point I figured out how to make DSForward shortcuts for the games on the 3DS main menu...

    Hacking Help with the r4i card I got, won't show up on New 3DS Luma

    So I have an existing R4 Upgrade card that works on my N3DS running Luma, no issues there. My friend bought an r4i Upgrade and it does not show up on my 3DS. It came with a small 8gm micro sd and the person who sold it said it was working fine. Can anyone help?

    Homebrew Question about NDS backup playback

    So I have an r4 card that I use to play all my DS backups and the compatibility is really good (except Pokémon Platinums bag menu lags a little bit for some reason). That being said why is it that you can’t simply play DS backups from the 3DS SD card with the same 100% compatibility as when it’s...

    ROM Hack Any method/hack to force virtual console games to boot in pixel perfect mode by default?

    Basically I much prefer playing GBA, DS, and GB games in pixel perfect mode, where they are displayed in their regular resolution and size and not bloated to fit the screen. But this requires holding the start button during startup between 5-15 seconds. Any method I can enable to make my 3DS CFW...

    Homebrew Question How are GBA games on Switch vs 3DS?

    I’ve been playing a few GBA games on my New 3DS XL and it’s pretty good, since it has the hardware built in. But I figured the Switch probably has a better screen. Anyone have any thoughts on GBA on Switch? Any preference

    Hacking Dumb question, but about updating CFW

    I sometimes go a few months without playing Switch and forget how to update CFW and whatnot. If I'm already on CFW, am I only updating the CFW and never the actual firmware itself? If not, am I installing to the latest official firmware after updating to the latest CFW? Thanks

    Usually when such a big title leaks the Temp will be the first to report about it (going off of historical reports here, Pokemon SV being the latest one I can recall seeing pop up here)

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
