    Official hakchi2 - NES Mini very simple pimp tool

    Thanks for this utility first off, it's great! Since the source was available online I took the liberty of bringing it into VS to take a look at a few issues I ran into with it. First was something fairly simple, the application maintained a file lock on the image file selected with 'Browse'...

    Hacking Coding vWii 3-core support - everything you need to know.

    Sooo, back on topic... I've been following this thread for a bit now and have found it pretty interesting besides the distraction 2 pages ago. :) I did some work on the Wii early on with a USB loader, but haven't touched code on it for a while. The nice thing for me is that the CPU...

    Hacking Why you don't need to be afraid of a vWii Update

    I'm just going to chime in here, it's been said enough, but vWii mode on the Wii-U is not emulation... There's nothing to 'emulate' as the instruction set for the CPU used on the Wii is fully supported by the Wii-U. Emulation is used when you have a dissimilar instruction set between the...

    Thumbdrives don't' have a spinning disc in them and draw far less power then a mechanical HDD.

    Hacking Wiimode and USB Loader GX

    Personally I guess I have one "shady" use for the USB loaders, to try a game out if I'm on the fence about purchasing it. Also some of my more prized games I have kept in their original wrap to preserve them. Honestly though, every game that spends over a week's time on that drive is sitting...

    Hacking Wii U Teaser HomeBrew Channel

    ^ This, ordered my copy from Amazon for $25 a week ago and it showed up the other day. Looked like the surefire way to get homebrew under the Wii side at least and wanted to make sure I had a copy that's good to go. :)

    Hardware Tear down of pro controller / battery it's self in wii U pad?

    Also I just started digging a little bit to see what I could find for lithium polymer batteries within the size range, this one looks like a perfect fit: http://kayobattery.gmc.globalmarket.com/products/details/rechargeable-polymer-li-ion-battery-604883-with-3-7v-3000mah-646074.html Should...

    Hardware Tear down of pro controller / battery it's self in wii U pad?

    If anyone wants to know the rough dimensions of the gamepad, here's what I got on a quick run over it with my caliper. Current battery is 9.5mm thick which will be the real limiting factor on using off the shelf cells like a 18650 (18-19mm diameter).

    Gaming My only complaint about the WiiU

    If you have a citibank card they allow you to create virtual CC numbers good for one purchase, I use that for most all of my online purchasing. Otherwise if you tell eShop to not retain your CC info for future purchases, they won't have all the important information retained on their servers...

    Hacking Internet features of wiiU.

    I could definitely see someone releasing a little web server interface for getting your content onto the Wii-U using some of those methods. Once they're better understood it'd be pretty easy to setup a package that was ready made for apache and could easily be deployed to whatever OS you're...

    Gaming My only complaint about the WiiU

    If you pay with a credit card you can put exactly the credit needed to purchase a game on your account. That how I bought all of my eShop titles and I currently have $0 in my account waiting to be used. Probably no way to work this with store bought credit, have to use a CC on your last...

    Hardware HDMI to DVI with Audio?

    $500 is a ripoff for what you're looking for, hell my Atlona HD-570 was only $180 and it supports decoding 6 channel PCM to analog outputs. Here's some more reasonably priced alternatives...

    Hardware HDMI to DVI with Audio?

    There are cheap solutions for about $30 that will give you stereo audio from your HDMI cable, and there are more expensive ones that can give you 6 channel analog out for surround sound. (These are about $150-200). Take a look on Amazon or other sites for HDMI to RCA adapters and I'm sure...

    Hardware How the hell do I update with no internet?

    That's a good concern, 2 hours should be more than enough time to complete it on a reasonable connection, but I'd have that thought in the back of my head once I started it as you can't cancel it... Another good place to try would be your local library, many of them offer free wifi and you...

    Hardware How the hell do I update with no internet?

    No need for an extra monitor wherever you go, as long as you have the gamepad you can navigate the screens. Just be aware when it updates the gamepad itself (part of the update process) it will go blank for a few while it does its thing. Might want to try a Panera really, they always have tons...

    Hardware Wii U 5.1 Surround Sound Issue

    In short, it boils down to the fact that the surround sound audio data coming from the Wii-U is 6 channel uncompressed LPCM data, NOT Dolby Digital AC3 5.1 or DTS. Some receivers may not support this audio format and will fall back to 2 channel mode when getting that data. Probably because...

    Gaming Youtube is available for download

    Change the resolution in the controls that are displayed in the browser portion, they're still active while the video plays in it's window / pane / whatever. Had no problem playing back a 1080p youtube stream from the browser here.

    Gaming Youtube is available for download

    Yeah, hopefully we'll see a quick follow up with an update. Cause as it is, it pretty much sucks and there's no reason to use it over the browser. :\

    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:

  • 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:

    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.
