I'm finding something a little suspicious. I want to install the homebrew channel. So, as you do, I go to hbc.hackmii.com. According to Firefox, my connection was refused. So, I go to wiibrew.org, and my connection is also refused there. A little suspicious, no? I go to hackmii.com, and the site loads without any page style.

Is this happening for anybody else right now? Or is my ISP playing around with me?

On a side note, Bootmii is released? (Please don't flame me)

No...but maybe they closed the sites only for this..writing some stuff about bootmii and release it...then open the sites with BootMii

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    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
