    UltraFP64: The N64 FPGA Project is becoming a reality.

    The problem is, you don't start from the schematic for the chips, you start from your understanding of the chip. If every FPGA cores were not emulation, then there would literally be no glitches not present in the original console. And even then, it would still be emulation because your FPGA is...

    Nintendo officially announces LEGO NES Building Kit with pricing and release date

    For everyone complaining about the price, it's a 2600 pieces lego kit. That's the usual price for a lego set this big, it has nothing to do with the licensing or Nintendo being greedy.

    UltraFP64: The N64 FPGA Project is becoming a reality.

    It's 100% emulation. You can argue it's hardware emulation instead of software emulation, but at the end of the day the FPGA must be programmed based on our understanding of the chips it's trying to emulate. You can't magically tell the FPGA to emulate a certain chip, you need to literally...

    Gaming Hacking with a normal USB Drive?

    But even then you couldn't just use an off the shelf usb thumbdrive, put a file on it or reprogram it and then hack your PS3 with it. You needed something that could execute code. You can't use a USB thumbdrive to make a BadUSB or a Rubber Ducky USB drive. If you look carefully at this...

    Hacking Question Backup my NAND or not?

    Yes. Right now at least you have a usable NAND. If one day an update or rogue software screw up your Switch you will be glad to have a working backup.

    GCN Is it possible to hack a Gamecube with a broken disc reader?

    Nintendon't isn't an emulator. The only emulated things are controls, memory cards access and data reads (since it's not reading from a drive). Everything else only leverages the fact that the hardware in the Gamecube and the Wii is very similar.

    Gaming Link's Awakening - Thief Status

    But then you won't be able to rebuy the shovel after getting the boomerang, the piece of heart or the stone tablet (which costs like 1200 rupees). All in all, if you don't want the Thief name, you shouldn't bother stealing at all.

    Gaming Link's Awakening - Thief Status

    Hacking Question Downgrade from 9.0 using nand ?

    Exactly. If you update from ChoiDuJourNX or SX Installer you won't burn any fuses. But make another backup of your NAND now with the burnt fuses. And if you want to play Zelda, just use Atmosphere for now, it's compatible with 9.0.

    Hacking Question Downgrade from 9.0 using nand ?

    I'm pretty sure you can downgrade, but you will ALWAYS have boot into a CFW where the fuse check is disabled, you won't be able to boot on original firmware. Also from now on, you should update either with ChoiDuJourNX or SX Installer.

    Satellite Dish Homebrew

    No you can't, the Satellaview only distributed games for short periods of time. If you wanted to play BS Zelda for example, you had to connect at a precise date and time to get the broadcast.

    Homebrew Question Windows emulation on Switch?

    Nope, I searched to confirm, if the hardware has drivers for ARM you can emulate x86 but Microsoft doesn't support OpenGL or x64. I don't know about DirectX, I'm not sure if any hardware running on ARM can implement that but couldn't find a confirmation either way.

    Homebrew Question Windows emulation on Switch?

    Sorry you're right, I got mixed up. It's x64 and OpenGL that don't work on Windows 10 on ARM.

    Homebrew Question Windows emulation on Switch?

    If they did, it was Windows 10 for ARM. That's not gonna run any x86 softwares.

    Hacking External Drive with y-cable vs. USB thumb drive

    A thumbdrive (unless it's a REALLY high quality one) will be really slow. If you really need the USB port you can get a powered USB hub. Also, if you want that USB port for the Gamecube adapter, you can plug only one of the two plugs and it will still work, you just won't have rumble (not sure...

    Hacking Does the WiiU HDD encryption tie the HDD to its enclosure?

    It's both the hard drive and the enclosure. You can't take a drive, switch its enclosure and still have it work, the USB controller ID is used in the encryption.
