    Will you be buying the next Nintendo Console?

    I voted yes as I likely will at some point. It probably wont be at launch, however when theirs a new mainline Pokemon game announced that is exclusive to that console I'll start looking.

    How to evolve tradable Pokemon - Soul Silver

    Now I'm curious as to what this thread title was before based on the above comments?! You can setup a real DS or emulator such as MelonDS to connect to community run servers and trade online as normal. WFC instructions for MelonDS, you can change the DNS settings on a real DS to get online...

    Rumor Google is going to kill uBlock Origin in June 2024

    The web browser is one thing you really shouldn't run an outdated versions of, so its not really good advice to help people stop their browser from updating. Look what is possible with webkit exploits on the Wii U for example. The current best long term solution would be to use a non Chromium...

    Share your most memorable experiences with the Wii U's unique controller, the GamePad

    Well you have taught me something there, I had no idea you could ever video chat on the Wii U! It's kinda crazy how on the DS you could voice chat when trading Pokemon, video call on the Wii U, yet online functionality / communication on the Switch still seems so primitive. Great story :)

    I use atmosphere on sysnand, do I have to format my sdcard to install android on my oled switch?

    You have to partition your SD card, so will need to backup the data on it first (copy it to your PC) you can copy it back after however. Follow the instructions here: https://wiki.switchroot.org/wiki/android/11-r-setup-guide

    Reverse engineered ports to Wii U

    Sonic Mania and Sonic CD have Wii U ports. I think theirs ports of the mobile versions of Sonic 1 and 2 also.

    Swapdoodle still works?

    If you have kept your 3DS online in a certain game some still do currently work. You can still currently wonder trade on Pokemon X / Y, however if you get disconnected that's it, you won't be able to reconnect.

    Did you use Floppy Disk/Diskettes?

    I used floppy disks in the 90s / early 2000's. The first computer we got was an Amiga 500 that used 3.5" 720k floppies for everything. You could get hard drives for the Amiga, however that was not something we had. Games were loaded from floppies, sometimes multiple depending on the game. Our...

    Denuvo unveils new technology "TraceMark" aimed to watermark and easily trace leaked games

    I believe Denuvo has supported the Nintendo Switch for a while and was supposed to stop emulation I believe was the selling point to developers. Do any Switch games actually make use of it?

    maybe i just a found a thing about softmod xbox 360

    Unless private keys leak from Microsoft you can't put a modded firmware on the hard drive and install it on a non modded Xbox 360. The non modded Xbox 360 will just ignore anything not digitally signed.

    Not sure if serious, however you answered your own question. That is exactly why it happened:

    TheFlow has hacked the PlayStation Portal, manages to run PPSSPP natively on the device

    I suspect it does run Android, this deleted tweet said: "Turns out they had some custom code that attempted to prevent apk installation, but I could bypass it: https://t.co/0B38HRaaaw" APK's are Android packages.

    Its been done with one game: Sonic Mania (3DS Port)

    "Official Xbox Podcast" to stream on February 15th, 2024

    Honestly I think that would be pretty awesome, even more so if it allowed all past Xbox, Xbox 360 / Xbox One games that are supported one the Series consoles to be played on Windows. Its nice that a lot of newer Xbox games work on Windows, however as someone who has a long HDMI lead connecting...

    Easy to lock yourself out of your Google account? → Is that normal?

    Usually when I log in to my Google account on a new device it will prompt on my mobile, however it will also give the option to enter a code from my authenticator app, or use one of the recovery codes generated when 2FA was enabled. The phone might have had to have been offline or not accessed...

    Do you use SMS to message your friends or family?

    People might hate Meta / Facebook, however WhatsApp is fully end to end encrypted with the Signal Protocol so Facebook or the government can't read your messages in transit, even if they wanted to. At best they can get metadata such as the time a message was sent, however not the content of the...

    Switch gamecarts include firmware updates, so in theory you could update your Switch to a certain firmware version with the Mig Switch. This site includes the firmware version on the gamecart: https://nswdb.com/

    Nintendo officially announces the end date for 3DS and Wii U online services

    I wonder if Pokebank / Transporter will eventually stop working due to requiring SSL certificate updates? I suspect with no way to update them it could eventually happen. Hopefully these remain around for years to come as it will be sad to see 20+ years of backwards compatibility between...

    Remote Deletion Of Paid Applications (Google Play Store)

    Good point, I purchased my OnePlus 5T back in the day with support in mind. Having used roms since the CyanogenMod days back in 2010 that could used to be the case. These days I do feel that if a device is (officially) supported by LineageOS then everything does actually work in my experience...

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.

    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.

    @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.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    @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."

    @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
