    3DS XL Stuck at boot (black screen) when SD card is inserted

    I don't think it's an SD reader issue, it detects the SD insertion/removal and every pin seems in great shape... I've already cleaned it. I can't access any of these as the payloads are supposed to be on the SD card... 1713530933 It DEFINITLY was a SD reader problem. I didn't see one pin was...

    3DS shuts off when SD card is inserted

    I've already tried, but it seems everything is fine... I don't get how it is possible. It seems that it's only when the device is trying to access the SD memory, so maybe a faulty CPU or something... but I think it's going to be hard to repair :wacko: Thanks for your answer :) 1712330094 I...

    Did I kill my brand new OLED switch?

    Thanks for your answer ! I don't think there is any solder ball, i've been very careful doing it, but I'm going to check anyway. I've already removed the ones I soldered, which did not make the values change. I may try to remove all capacitors and see if it changes the problem before putting...

    Did I kill my brand new OLED switch?

    Hello guys, It is my 1st time posting here. I've already found some fixes for my issues here (thanks to y'all btw) so I thought it would be the right place to ask.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
