    Hardware Has anyone had issues with bad clone/knockoff microSD EZ4s?

    Just out of pure curiosity; there's a handful on AliExpress hovering in the range of $30 that go out of the way to hide the EZ-Flash name on the product images. No idea if they're trying to hide from Nintendo's potential legal actions or if they're just bad clones (at least one of them uses the...

    Gaming So what's your Switch library look like so far?

    Preordered Zelda with my Switch. Imported Disgaea 5 and I Am Setsuna when I remembered the Switch was region-free. Bomberman's a Gamefly rental to test multiplayer with the joycons, but my brother and I have both been too engrossed in Zelda (me on the Switch, him on Wii U) to actually give it a...

    Gaming Anyone have a save for SMT IV around the route lock?

    Looking to refamiliarize myself with SMT IV's endings before Apocalypse, but I really don't want to do a full playthrough. If anyone's got a save in any format shortly before you're locked into a route (preferably with a bit of wiggle room, but that might be harder) it'd be much appreciated.

    Hardware o3DS - "Write-protection is enabled on the SD Card."

    I picked up a half-broken o3DS this week for the purpose of downgrading other systems. The cart reader is broken, which I knew about in advance; it should be compatible with Browserhax, so I don't need a cart slot. However, every time I've tried to insert an SD card I get an error saying write...

    Gaming Looks like Zero Escape: 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors is coming to Steam (and Vita?)

    Yesterday morning. Spike Chunsoft's English account sent out a tweet containing the phrase "A familiar ship heads into port.", with a wider-resolution version of 999's opening video attached. Shortly thereafter, series creator Kotaro Uchikoshi retweeted it, adding that "It looks like a...

    Android Android/Linux ARM TV box - navigation via remote/controller?

    I got a free Linux mini-PC (appears to be a rebranded MK902II LE, running Xubuntu), minus most of the accessories. I'd like to set it up basically as a media streaming/emulation device, to be controlled either by a PS3 controller or an old DirecTV remote. Is there any good ROM library/launch...

    Windows 10... now has a Ubuntu subsystem, I guess?

    https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2016/04/06/announcing-windows-10-insider-preview-build-14316/ https://blogs.windows.com/buildingapps/2016/03/30/run-bash-on-ubuntu-on-windows/ This is interesting and something I haven't had a chance to try out yet. The newest Win10 Insider Preview...

    Android Low-price Android TV stick/box?

    I'm looking for something that'll run Kodi and do some fairly lightweight emulation - I had a $20 Gamestick, but it overheated within the warranty period, the manufacturer wouldn't do anything other than tell me to return it to GameStop, and GameStop insisted that I had to return it to the...

    My parents' new ISP might be a contender for most inept filtering.

    I've been staying with my parents at their new place on and off for the last couple months, helping them rebuild and remodel it. Yesterday we finally got internet set up, and even though it's only a couple houses down the street from the old place, we went with another ISP - our last one refused...

    Hardware For heavy internet browsing only (RAM question)

    8GB of RAM at 1333Mhz is going to work better than 4GB at 1600Mhz, right? I'm taking my mother's laptop for a little while to make sure her Windows 10 update goes smoothly, and she's the type of person who'll have literally 40+ tabs open at any given time. Whenever I have to troubleshoot...

    Hardware Has anyone else noticed how cheap x86 Windows tablets are getting?

    Recently I've noticed a bunch of cheap tabs using Intel Atom processors running Windows 8/8.1. The specs generally aren't great, with the best generally being 2GB RAM/32GB SSD, with no chance of upgrading either, USB only through an OTG adapter, etc., but DealExtreme has an 8.0" Ainol tablet...

    Hacking Any way to read a PS3 HDD without knowing my keys?

    I recently modded a PS2 and wanted to pick up where I left off on my last Persona 3 run on my PS3, but the thing YLOD'd about three months ago, and apparently I didn't have a backup of any of my virtual memory cards (or if I do, they're on some USB stick I've long since forgotten about and...

    Atlus is finally localizing the original Shin Megami Tensei

    ...on the iPhone. The game releases March 18, 2014 for $7.99 on the App Store; you can find more info on Atlus' own page here. Worth noting: This seems to be based on the PSX(?) remake, not the original SNES version. I wouldn't get your hopes up for a SNES release on the Virtual Console or...

    Gaming Looks like Atlus themselves are publishing Conception II in Europe.

    With a relatively fast turnaround, too; April 15th in the US, sometime in Q2 for Europe. Digital-only, but it's better than nothing, and hopefully it sets some precedent for Atlus doing these things themselves in Europe rather than you guys having to wait for Ghostlight to fuck it up. Dunno if...

    Hacking So is it time to give in and shell out $40 for an EZ-Flash IV?

    I picked up a backlit SP earlier this month and I've been looking at my options for backup carts, probably for the first time since I picked up a 3-in-1 maybe half a decade ago. The choices, as far as I can tell, are fairly narrow anymore: - The EZ-Flash IV is probably the best value for the...

    Gaming Tales of Vesperia and Dark Souls are $5 or less for XBL Gold this week.

    Tales of Vesperia is only $4.94, while Dark Souls is $4.99; other sales include Final Fantasy 13-2 for $6.59 and The Witcher 2 for $9.89. You need an Xbox Live Gold Membership to grab these, though; there's a link floating around for a free one-month trial (probably US only), but I don't know it...

    Hardware Anyone know of a reliable webstore selling SP housings?

    I picked up a severely beat-up backlit SP off of eBay earlier this week - while it works fine, and the screen is flawless, there's some deep scratching and chipping. Originally my plan was to repaint the thing before looking into a replacement housing, but a small chip of the bottom by the cart...

    Hacking Can a backup from a 2.06 Vita be restored to a lower FW system?

    The short of it is that I sold my old 2.06 Vita and bought a 3G one currently on 1.81 (which I plan on updating to 2.02 at some point). Unfortunately, I didn't think to back up most of my current game saves individually, and I don't think they were backed up through the PS+ cloud. All I've got...
