    Hardware Preserving battery life of 2nd Switch

    Hi guys, I have 2 Switches, but I don't intend to use one of them for a while. I'll look for tutorials on how to disconnect the battery from the unit, but the question is: how safe is that in the long term? I intend to reconnect it every few months just for charging. Thanks in advance!

    Hardware 3DS batteries years from now

    So, I have a small collection of consoles and handhelds. I am now wondering how worried I should be about whether or not the internal battery of the New 3DS (or any other console with an internal battery for that matter) will still hold up, say, 20 or 30 years from now? I know that old gaming...

    Hacking Priiloader-like function on vWii for region free channels?

    Hi guys. First, I know I absolutely should not try to use Priiloader on a vWii.

Is there any way to do the same on the vWii...

    Just wondering. My Switch is on Atmosphere 10.0.0, but I have the means to downgrade it back to 1.0.0. Wondering if a low firmware could at some point be exploited to allow cold boot into CFW, or something of the sorts.

    I have a joycon with tinfoil taped onto those 2 little connectors to enable the Switch to enter RCM. My Switch already has Auto RCM enabled, but I still want to keep that joycon as is because I want to have it always ready in case I need it again for some reason. Question: Can I charge that...

    Is this happening with anyone else? The upper screen works normally when 3D mode is not on, but when I turn it on, it's like the screen splits in 2, but not the way it was supposed to be, so there's no 3d effect and the images just overlap each other. On sysNAND it works just fine though.
