ok i was wondering if anyone else has encountered any bugs in 2.1, i have just found a super trimmed ocarina of time doesn't go down to well with the gateway card, with some quite weird effects

inb4 "don't trim them then" yeah i am aware that the best advise is to not trim, im just wondering if anyone else has had stuff like this happen

when this happened i could still move around on the gateway bar untill i selected a game then,


this is what happened after selecting a game, quiet wierd, but console works fine after reboot, but it does crash whenever i select the zelda super trimmed rom


Sooo has anyone else experienced any bugs like this?

I've had the an error has occured quite a few times, think it was more to do with my MicroSD card though than GW. When I put a real one in it's not happened since, it only used to happen on loading Animal Crossing & Bravely Default. The only other bug ive encoutered is failing to boot properly into gateway mode, after clicking nintendo ds profile the screen goes black and freezes, probably happened twice out of 40 times, no big deal.

That's no bug, trimming cuts partition info, which is now used by the new savegame system, new trimming tool is need wich i believe i have seen on the mario virtual console thread but i don't know if it works for all the games.

Yea, that happens when the microSD or the Gateway cart is not making proper contact.

that only applies to nand saving games, i do realize that the super trim removes the system update which is the likely cause, but its just weird that it crashes like that i.e garbled screen :D

I had that happen with the older version (not the one with the brick code, but the one right before that), but not with Omega.

when i enter gateway mode, then i go to settings again and load up the exploit again (maybe this time i want to dump a card etc), i get an error and have to power down.
maybe it doesn't happen all the time, i forget, but the last time i did it i got an error :)

    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
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    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)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.

    @BigOnYa, Lol I bought a new USB card reader thing on AliExpress last month for I think like 87 cents. Free shipping from China... It arrived it works and honestly I don't understand how it was so cheap.
