You know, I'm thinking that since it takes forever to check, wouldn't it be faster to just download the .CIA, convert it to .3ds and try it on Citra instead? Convert takes only like 5 mins with a fast HDD and if it loads at all on Citra it's real. Having to install, then test and uninstall is a pain...

i bet nintendo's getting a kick from these trolls
Who says they aren't the trolls themselves?:P

How do you convert it to a .3ds?

I thought that might've been the process. That would be the fastest way to see if the leak is real.
I know, installing 3+ GB games on the 3DS with FBI takes forever!:/ Just keep in mind that you can't repack .CIA files, only .3DS, but can extract both. CIA repacking isn't working lately and still needs a fix...

Yeah I'm aware of that. I actually rebuilt a .3ds with HackingToolkit last night.

Just putting it out there... I just left work (Best Buy) and we got our shipments of the games today. The SKU's are already in the register as well so I'm almost positive we will see a leak before Friday. The games ARE 100% in the wild now.
That would line up with last year then.

my friend works at gamestop and i asked him today if they specifically had ultra sun and ultra moon yet. he said yes, so game stop has them too. so we for sure should get it before friday.

Yeah I've been a manager there for over a year, most retailers get the games the same week. SO I'm 99% EVERY big box store has them already or will have them by tomorrow. Either way, the carts are out there in stores now. 100% confirmed.

    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gonna check out the new Garfield looks like garbage
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty didn't you see the new garfield?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ah it's all animated I was hoping for some live action
