    Hacking Haxchi/CBHC: a psychological analysis

    I'm starting to think haxchi/CBHC could be the target of the combined frustration of thousands of cheapstakes burning inside at the mere thought of spending money for the VC DS title. Sometimes actual cheapstakes, sometimes just unable to make that purchase for a number of reasons. Let's hope...

    Hacking LAST WARNING: haxchi your WiiU or regret it forever

    EDIT JULY 2017: 90% of this thread (except the last pages) is from last winter when 5.5.2 was just pure speculation, don't read it and don't quote old posts, I just upped it to friendly rub into people's face that Cassandra happened to be right and 5.5.1 wasn't supposed to be the Wii U final...

    Hacking CBHC vs CBHC+autoMocha+(redNAND)

    What coldboot setup do you prefer? In terms of - boot time - brick risk and recovery - other pros and cons I was set on just plain CBHC but also CBHC default booting to Mocha doesn't sound bad. Not sure about boot times though. Why are you people using CBHC+Mocha doing it? Is the risk of...

    Hardware Is the right JoyCon (IR camera) potentially a WiiRemote for Wii VC?

    Has this already been discussed? - accelerometer: check - gyros: check - dpad: analogue stick - buttons: plenty, just in another position; - IR sensor: check (only in the right JoyCon) add a sensor bar and you could play stuff like RE4_wii, Mario Galaxy and the like, if released as VC titles...

    Hacking 2017 Wii U flash sales: 8GB vs 32GB

    So it's 2017 and the Switch is upon us. Plenty (or not?) new&sealed WiiUs will flood auction sites in the coming weeks, both in 8GB and 32GB flavours, the former particularly cheap. I was wondering: is there any reason to prefer 32GB black wiiUs over the 8GB basic (big fan of white here) in...

    Gaming MGS 3 Snake Eater 3D now on the eShop (25K blocks = 3GB+)

    Cool. At just 19.99€ it's a steal. Downloading. Between this and RE Revelations (another 3GB+ monster download), good thing I have a 32GB SDHC.

    [Just for fun] EU elections poll

    The final debate just finished. Votes are not public and poll closes 10 days from now. (just after the actual elections) I chose a "Vote the PRESIDENT" approach to avoid listing tens of options and because there's no way the president won't be one of those five. So even if you're going to...

    Hardware Everybody should enable Parental Lock, here's why

    With the latest update, it's a good time to enable Parental Lock on your 3DS, because if you do: 1) Nobody will be able to format your 3DS without the pin 2) Nobody will be able to delete your NNID from existence without the pin (= all your eShop purchases LOST, both on 3DS and Wii U) 3) You...

    PAL/NTSC video output on softmod Xbox: I don't get it

    So, on every other console (region free or softmodded to be region free), if you load a PAL game you get PAL video output, if you load a NTSC game you get NTSC. Simple as that. Sometimes you have the option to force the game to load in the other format, sometimes this works flawlessly, sometimes...

    Gaming Considering buying a Wii Mini to scavenge spare parts

    I noticed Wii Minis are starting to drop below 80€ (even getting close to 70€) when on sale in some places and on amazon. Wouldn't mind having some spare parts (for the years to come) for my GC-compatible black Wii, namely - original red Wii motion plus remote - original red nunchuck (hard to...

    Gaming [Ultimate Comparison] Game Boy Micro Vs backlit AGB-001

    The gameboy micro is a thing of beauty. I recently acquired one and I figured I could share my take on it, as a Zerey's modded AGB owner. As I said, it's a thing of beauty, a "unibody" metal handeld (yep it's anodized colored metal, for those not familiar with it, except the removable plastic...

    Hardware The usual question about preinstalled games in bundles

    How "resistant to deleting" are preinstalled games? Let's break down all the cases 1) format (or swap) SD card --> no problem, just redownload from eShop 2) format (or swap) SD card + format system --> again, just redownload from eShop (right?) 3) complete NUKING (format SD card + format...

    Hardware [Review] Shocked by how good the 3DS XL is

    The perfect way it feels in your hands. (adult hands at least, don't know about kids) The glassless 3D that surprisingly WORKS and is amazing and for the first time ever sold me on this whole 3D gimmick. Screw movies and dorky glasses. This is 3D you can actually carry in your pocket and if...
