    Can you trade in a banned switch for an unbanned one?

    So, have you confirmed that it GOT banned yet or what? You'd be surprised sometimes, honestly.

    And when EMUtool has target card options all grayed out? Or just copy the hidden partition as Atmosphere files, and then re-inject from that?

    So, do we have a clear and definitive instructions to upgrading to a larger microSD WITHOUT losing games/saves/user profiles/etc? I've been searching all the past threads and nothing really fully worked for me.

    The MIG Switch Thread

    You realize big N has banned far more people, for far less before, right? As a huge company, they are perhaps the biggest anti-consumer entity there ever was after Apple.

    Power A Nano enhanced controller, so IT is just that smol. Vertically, it's just a mm or so shorter than a joycon. It's lighter too despite technically having all the same guts from the normal sized one, which is also important as hell if you're gonna sit with it for an entire day or travel...

    Unpopular Opinions 2.0

    To be fair, the original live also dragged the hell on and on and on, but that's just the nature of the beginning of the story as I understand it. The animation is definitely the best adaptation thus far, IMO, because it gets to interesting points through it's season.

    Things you recently bought or got

    A way, way overdue game changer for me since I absolutely hate how huge all standard Switch controllers are for absolutely no good reason.

    Rog ally issue

    Hate to say this, but from my past experiences, ASUS and especially RoG line of laptops/quite possibly other devices is a hot pile of garbage when it comes to the hardware design, cooling, and etc. That aside, it's still a new handheld hodgepodge thing, so wait and pray ASUS will patch whatever...

    Who actually cares about graphics and framerates?

    Ah yes. the good old, "PC is for gfx/fps peak" vs we all already know what PC is really for when new single-player-only AAA's are $70... Back a decade ago, I had my PC croak due to a surge that nailed the power strip as well, and I figured why not explore the console route for the sheer...

    Hacking Emulation Gaming Is it morally correct to pirate games that cannot be obtained officially from the company that made/published them?

    Damn right I would if it means another clear month! On-topic - if something is not readily available anymore, it means the devs/publisher have made the revenue they wanted, and seeing how more and more stuff is becoming digital-only, pirating is the only choice left. Now, when we're talking...

    Terraria and just about any decent racing game, with some Monster Hunter sprinkled in.

    The MIG Switch Thread

    So, where are we all on the likely inevitable crash of the used game market thanks to MIG? People can go to used game stores, buy used carts in bulk, make themselves legit copies, then go dump that entire stock back off, and when the cart's next owner and the pirate both go online - they both...

    Gaming Help installing a game that requires internet connection!!

    Sounds like Doom 1 & 2 where it wants to connect at least once. Only way around is to use a savegame editor and for someone to supply a save that's right after this step, but I had absolutely 0 luck getting any of the save editors to boot.

    Gaming Nintendo Switch/3DS cartridge lifespan

    Excellent post OP! I would've figured that to prolong anything with write enabled would be to use it as little as possible. This also clearly goes to show to backup alllll your saves twice or thrice.

    Gaming Breath of the Wild Highly Rated

    I finally played through about 2 months ago and, in order of your list I quoted: 1: agreed! 2: Let's face it, the real culprit are clunky ass targeting controls as can be VERY clearly seen when fighting the Thunderblight. Like hooooly hell you can end up facing completely off, no lock-on, and...

    Hacking Possible to load base FW and play online (safely), while also having a CFW?

    Best I can tell you - I set mine up to have 1 entirely separate and phat MicroSD with emuNand + atmosphere setup on that and that never sees a single byte of internet. Sysnand is squeaky clean and I use a different, small mem card for screenshots and such to keep the built-in mem as free and...

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They haslve dedicated on board chips that aren't tweaked like x64/x32 afaik
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    but its a custom os for both of them
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    designed for only specific hardware
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    so you have to learn to emulate that specific hardware which isn't as easy as you'd think
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It's a locked down Linux distro basically
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think the only custom hardware is to do with the SSD and a security chip
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Probably combined in one chip
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They place married security chips onto boards iirc
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Damn Frontier is offering 5Gbps now lol
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I honestly can't recommend any of the big 3 this years I'd say buy a rog ally z1 if we're being honest
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Honestly after the PS3 and 360 I just went full PC
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Every games basically cross platform they only have about 6 titles making it worth the $600 price tag
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Didn't see much need for a console, all the advantages have kind of disappeared
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    the ps3 used to support installing linux because the cpu was so powerful
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Then the games are $70 and they want to reboot and refresh the same game every year
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    The ps3 was always Linux they just found a way to make it open source
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    I'm avoiding buying from the big 3 at all atm
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    At one point PC game pads where poorly supported, loading a game had setup, it was complicated. Now it's almost as easy as a console.
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    nintendo needs to up their game soon
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah even bt support for Xbox one controllers are just as easy as pairing
     +1
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    considering the steamdeck can emulate the switch (yikes) theres almost 0 reason to buy the switch apart from playing online and using cartridges
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Xinput and 360 dongles were a driver nightmare
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I remember having to manually put in drivers and what not
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah the 360 dongles sucked
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But the new Xbox pads? PIr it up and if a game supports it it just works
