We've regressed back to using Kosmos CFW packs again?
>>568221095to be fair it makes more sense now, given updates are much more scarce. The main issue with those packs was that everything would break when you had to update after all

Anyone else swapped Homebrew Menu for sphaira?Like the look and the inbuilt MTP Installs.
>>568290949Never heard of it
>>568291061It's pretty good, a huge step up from Homebrew Menu.

I want to play saturn and dreamcast gales on original hardware on my 4K TV. It has componnt.
Without a new hack we will die....
>>568309247The TV has component ports? The red, green blue, yellow, red?
>>568290949how is this out since at least 2 years ago and this is the first i hear of it
>>568314625Switch homebrew scene pretty dead since new switches aren’t hack able unless you solder.
>>568315659sure but that shouldn't be at our expense, like we've argued about DBI constantly and this shit can do everything DBI does (MTP is both for installing AND browing the sd card contents) without le scary malware thing, i'd say it's something that should've been on the table since it happened
>>568315659>>568316014>>568314625probably because of the large % of emulatorfags who might have become homebrewfags but went to emulation because they didn't already own a console and plus soldering can be quite tricky.
>>568316014Been installing games over MTP with Spharia today and it’s been flawless, boot into applet mode and then it’s just menu > install over mtp and then just drag the NSPs/XCI etc etc over to it and it transfers and installs super quick. Installed 150gb worth of games today through it.
>>568316173i know, i just tried myself, it even lets you install homebrews on the home menu with a few clicks, hence my disbelief. This thing fucking does it all and it has never been mentioned before, what the hell
>>568316115can't blame them, wouldn't been much more useful to me two years ago compared to nowt. started emulating switch games on my pc last year
>>568316293Yeah has pretty much everything you need really
too lazy to quote but it has been mentioned before and iirc someone shat on it kek

My clean Switch 22.1 setup is like this:AtmosphereHekateSigPatches from OP but remove the nosigchk line from hekate_ipl.inisys-patchSphariaAll you need. Don't need anything else.
>>568320416>SigPatches from OP but remove the nosigchk line from hekate_ipl.ini>sys-patchwhy both? Just "to be safe" or?
>>568320943Just to be safe and I have no idea why sys-patch doesnt come with a hekate_ipl.ini so I can only just use that. And I lack the brainpower to make one desu.
>>568193809I just followed the switch.hacks.guide. Is there a hShop equivalent for Switch? Not that I want to use it, it's just so I know where to avoid it. I had a look at the links in the OP but it's a bit confusing for a newcomer. Thanks.
>>568326734on switch it's like some installers supporting a "shop" functionality, rather than there being a dedicated shop homebrew. So basically you can use whatever installer cause to use the shop you need to do some additional shit like joining a discord and whatever else
>>568316615yeah like finding out about this now that there are no switch games coming anymore kinda pisses me off
>>568326734Long story short, there used to be tonnes of rom shops. Nintendo purged all of them a few years ago. Likely due to the totk leak and emulators going viral. Like 3+ shops, 4 reddits and 4 discords all of them dedicated to rom downloading were purged. Telegram seems to be the most comprehensive source now if you don't like those ddl sites or don't want to put time into private trackers >>568328639You guys got screwed over, leak season has been going on for literal decades with all the current gen emulation and it's really fun to play with anons on emulators often across the internet. There's always cfw peeps in those threads too and a lot of people are nice. Then some cute tourist anons. It's super fun
>>568328454>>568331190Ok I figured out that part, thanks. But now when I successfully install my .nsp through Cyberfoil, it still doesn't appear on the home menu. Is there something I'm missing?
I’ve been using Spharia for a year now…
>>568338146idk but the game should show up in the home menu, i also used cyberfoil a few times so i know it works. I have no idea why that just happened to you though, like afaik at worst the games show up on the home menu even when they don't work. Try reinstalling it again, or using another installer (though again, cyberfoil works)>>568339549then why didn't you ever say anything when people were arguing about dbi and shit? You could've saved countless anons from the evil malware (that still did nothing whatsoever to no one)!!
>>568341137I did, someone shat on it because it wasn’t DBI and then I never brought it up again.
>>568341242what did they say about it? I'm curious cause it just does everything flawlessly, though i'm the anon that just discovered it today. I don't get what someone could say to shit on it, is there a gay flag in there somewhere?
>>568341137Well, after letting Atmosphere update, I was met with a black screen for a few seconds, followed by a "PANIC - STOCK SYS" error message. After it rebooted I couldn't access the HB menu and inspecting my SD card on my computer, I've discovered that it's erased all of the homebrew folders/files and only the stock "Nintendo" folder remains. What the fuck?Why are these homebrew developers such fucking dunces? You asked me to update, I tap the A button, and you destroy my whole setup? There goes my day off, I guess. What a waste of time.
can sphaira do MTP installs?

So, retard here, point and laugh at me, i fully updated my cfw switch but completely forgot about sigpatches and now am basically locked out of doing anything. Does anyone know where to get sigpatches for 22.1.0 ?I mean i assume thats the problem, and I dont really know much about this stuff. I updated my hekate to 6.5.2 with the new fusee, i updated my atmosphere to 1.11.1and i booted into all of it, and all of that was just fine. But when i updated my firmware from 19 to 22.1.0 i was no longer able to boot into my switch unless i changed the "nosigchk" in hekate.ipl to be commented out, and of course after that I cant load any of my games because im no longer using sigchecks.I have the all in one updater cfw, it says that it also can update sigpatches, but for the life of me I do not see any option in any menu for it for sigpatches. Am I just fucked here?
Bump>>568526371We use sys-patch around here, sir.
gib poppy playtime chapter 5 NSP plz
>>568530304so i just put this on my sd card, boot, and it updates all by itself?
>>568531184It should, yeah.
>>568531451how can i know if it did anything? Like if i go to my switch sd card afterwards, what files would be the newest ones
>>568533174I'm not entirely sure. You'd just have to make sure you clicked "replace all" or whatever and put it in your Switch. Click on a game and if it launched, you did it correctly.
>>568533817its not doing anything when i boot. im using the latest version, which is 1.6.20 , which says it supports my atmosphere and firmware version. i placed its contents on the root of my sd card. But booting into my switch doesnt actually do anything. is there anything im supposed to do once i do?
>>568534303Weird. Sorry, I'm outta ideas, bro. Maybe reinstall everything?

>>568534303what "doesn't do anything" means here? The screen stays black even though the system is on? Cause that just means you forgot to push the payload for the bootloader, aka hekate bin file
>>568483724This just makes me think more about getting one of those used rog allys now, it increasingly looks like we're at the tail end of high end personal computing as a concept.
>>568530304Can you give me a sys-patch hekate_ipl.ini so I don’t have to worry about this dogshit patches anymore
>>568559082it's the same one as the one in the op, at best you just remove the nosigchk line from it but even with it in there it will still work

Fuck I forgot I bricked my Wii years ago.Can a hacked Wii U do everything a Wii can? Might just see if I can buy my cousins barely used Wii U.
>>568597679yes
>>568597061Mariko can since there's less power/heat to allow so. v1 might struggle.
>>568559726it doesn't work as well with the nosigchk linethere was some reason, I forgot
>>568599573it does though, it's how i use itonly issue is that when you reboot the system it will throw a nosigchk related error, but you can just ignore it and keep goingor at least, i didn't have any issues so far, and it's been like two months
Can I discuss hardware mods here?I recently turned up my old DS Lite, but the shell is broken so the hinge is fucked. I gotta find a replacement piece or just re-shell the whole thing.Considering tinkering with it while I have it disassembled, anything cool you can do with these things?

>>568647679N64 emulation is shit. Better to acquire a N64 and a summer cart. The emulation is preservation camp has acted as if it's a race against time and all the original hardware is going to turn into dust. But what has a better chance of working, a 5 year old used computer or a 30 year old used Nintendo 64? Which is harder to maintain? Sure if you want upscalers or HDMI mods and to make your shit not look blurry there's more effort compared to the jank ass emulation. But even if it can't accomplish it easier it's unquestionably better than trying to cope with buying an Optiplex or some shit when the rig you're running now breaks down and you're priced out of the market.
,
>>568666947>But what has a better chance of workinguuh a 5 year old computer?
>>568673672Lmao, no.
>>568673776lmao, yest. is using that 5 year old computer right now
>>568673830That's a sample size of one. I can't remember the last time one of my consoles needed a board level repair. I can remember multiple times my computers needed such things though.
>>568673936That's a sample size of one. All my consoles have issues, especially the older ones and especially the ones that deal with disks (cause duh, i actually used them), not my computers though. When i updated my rig i just gave everything to my dad and he's currently using the now 10 year computer himself
>>568674126The way that is written does not quite make sense as a rebuttal for my post. It's a sample size of one person but multiple old ass consoles. Also we have solutions for systems with optical drives now. If you care to keep those kinds of machines running basically all of them have ways to use SD cards or hard drives instead. The original post was about a Nintendo 64. You turn it on, the game starts, or you access a flash cart menu. It couldn't be simpler than that. How many variables are there for PCs? With a modern console replacing thermal paste might be a concern as it is with a PC, because more current consoles are basically PCs. But cartridge era machines not so much. Recapping them might be a good idea but you can totally get away with not doing that in most cases. I'd have more faith in a "junk" famicom from Yahoo Auctions working long term than I would most affordable PC hardware.
>>568674765>The way that is written does not quite make sense as a rebuttal for my post. It's a sample size of one person but multiple old ass consoles.same here though? You somehow think i only have 1 pc and 1 console or something? I have every playstation system besides the ps5, a good deal of nintendo systems and even an xbox one, but in my 31 years i only ever had like 3 pcs and 2 laptops, two of which i still use today. Hence my rebuttal>Also we have solutions foryes, it's called emulation on my pclike don't get me wrong, i'm not saying you're wrong in any way, i should probably try to fix my stuff, but i'm the kind of person that doesn't find joy in tinkering for tinkering sake, and if i have to choose how to spend my free time i'd rather choose what lets me play videogames right away. Which, in my case, is emulation. Where i too just "turn it on, select game, and the game starts, it couldn’t be simpler than that", which is also the same for proper pc games by the by. At worst the variables are there when mods are in play, but that's a different story
>>568675292I get it. You are into /emugen/ not /hbg/. That's fine. There's a thread for you and you aren't in it. I have multiple PCs too and they have been quite unreliable for me. Rising prices have led me to take in all the e-waste I can to cobble together working machines from it. I am not trusting any of it to work long term. I am not trusting the SSDs, NVMEs, or hard drives in these things to keep my data safe. I also hate PC gaming and think it's consumer driven retardation. People like you gave these companies all this money. What did they do the minute someone with more money came around? Complete and utter betrayal. Are you going to be happy to use the same GPU that you have now in 2036? Or are you going to hope and pray that the bubble bursts? I've already opted out. I don't need a shitty approximation of something that was already done right the first time. Asterisk, the older the console the better the emulation. It's not as if I never emulate either. But no I don't care that you can render some things better if they're from the 3D era. I don't need porn, gaming, shitposting, work, movies, anime, and social media all on the same machine with each thing fighting for my attention. I just want to play a game on a game machine. People call all this shit on the same machine minimalism and getting rid of clutter. I call it over-complicating what could be dead simple.
>>568676030i think you have issues a normal person doesn't have. Or maybe i'm the one with issues, as i never got this "muh fighting for my attention!!", it's not like i have to do everything at once or something happens. Same reason i don't get doom scrolling, like nigga walk away from the screen like close your eyesalso i never said i pay for games, hence me being here (aka the place where you hack systems to pirate their games)>Are you going to be happy to use the same GPU that you have now in 2036?that's a good question actually, but like you i also tapped out in my own way, as i think you literally don't need anything past 1080p60fps for videogames. Like i have a 4k tv too, but my 1080p shit looks fantastic on it just like the 4k movies (that i pirate) i sometimes put on it, but then again even my switch looks good on that tv so either my eyes don't work or upscaling technology really just got figured out a long time ago (i got the tv in 2021 and i don't think it was released that year)ultimately though the point is that i don't mind having a "do everything" machine, while you clearly do mind. And that's fine, to each their own etc etc, i think the most important thing is that we're still able to choose this shit instead of it being forced on us

>>56870231622.1.0 sigpatches / sys-patch compatible with 22.1.0 has existed since day 1 of firmware releasesigpatches aren't really that big of a deal anymore, as sys-patch is actively, with support day of firmware release, before atmosphere is ready

Hey all. My hacked N3DSXL became soft bricked recently and I spent a lot of time racking my brain around what the issue could be. Black screen, blue light and wifi light, no error messages. I manually updated Luma, went through my SD and deleted old obsolete leftover files from the older Homebrew etc and nothing helped. I even ran CTR check and there’s no issue, I can boot into safe mode, update, access Luma menu and all of that stuff. I was doing some further troubleshooting and I think this may be the culprit as I’ve done the steps and the qtm process from step 9 was displayed so I’m gonna go ahead and attempt to disable the camera ribbon.I’ve never ever taken this thing apart before and don’t wanna mess it up— does anyone have a good guide or image/video on JUST disconnecting the cameras? I’m finding videos on the entire disassembly but nothing specific on just the cameras. I’m not even 100% sure this is the issue so I hope this effort isn’t for nothing. Thanks!
>>568790471appreciate it.

Asked in destiny’s thread but I’ll ask here too. So I’m trying to play destiny 1 on ps3. I’ve got cfw hen and multimod etc. ps3 is on 4.9 firmware.I tried logging into psn without entering hen but it wants to system update to 4.92 which obviously I don’t want. What should I do how should I go about this? I really want to play destiny 1 online again and just hang out there
>>568847251What's wrong with updating?
>>568849873Well I guess I should get the latest version of hen thst will set me up wirh the latest ps3 firmware so I can then login to psn. It seems that might be the easiest way but I hate updating stuff like hen. I feel like shi always gets fucked up at that point and I never know what to do. But I can’t just update the ps3 firmware bc then it conflicts with the cfw. I found some online resource though

I updated all my ps5 linux stuff getting locked 60fps 1080p high settings cyberpunk 2077a month ago I think I was having fps problems because of the steam overlay performance monitor and not locking fps?
>>568871546That's pretty impressive actually. Regular PS5 or Pro?
>>568871906the pro can't use linux, so my launch day fat
>>568872046Interesting. I need to find a PS5 that doesn't cost a billion dollars lol.
>>568872283also on the right firmware, no?
>>568872540Yeah... that's probably gonna be like finding a 4 leaf clover in a field.

>>568883059I'd buy it over a pc
>>568193809Sorry if this is an oft-repeated question, but is there a similar thing for the Wii U that hShop is for the 3DS system? Or do I have to manually add game files I find on the web to the Wii U's SD card?Is there an on-console "shop" for games?
>>568883059It's actually criminal they don't do it with the current hardware crisis, all that hardware that could be used for something other than Spider-slop 2
>>568893375freeshop is an one off thing where people were just able to download every rom off ninty's own servers without paying. it didn't exist for switch but people made shops out of scene roms and then it got punished hard in switch etc era. so it's just an one off thing for 3ds only, no other console really had it.
>>568900619ps3 and vita also have it, and the same system can be accessed from pc too. Really useful for getting games in the proper legit format off the psn for emulators, or if you don't want to connect your system online
>>568893375hshop only happened cause people still care(d) about the 3DS, the wii u wasn't so luckythough i'm pretty sure that in its time it also had it, i personally never used it but i remember it existing

anyone managed to downgrade the FW of the Mina NSP? SAK gives me an error and I dont know of any other software thats able to remove FW requirements
>>568467429no keys no nps
>>568926035just update dude, everything works on the latest
>>568786047Cyberfoil gives me the same error as Awoo (0x001fd602) even having the "ignore minimum firmware version required", Sphaira just refuses to display my Switch on the device list on my PC
>>568927639I don't know, last time I believed that I got stuck on a useless firmware for a month, is there a GBATemp thread or something that proves it?
>>568928203>that proves it?that everything works? Everyone in this thread, and probably everyone over on gbatemp if you trust them more. I don't think anyone is making a "guys everything works on 22.x" because it's a honestly a given, even with all the changes that happened. I also can attest to it, i updated almost two months ago now (when tomodachi life dropped) and again everything worked just fine, at best (or worst) i remember having to switch from the tesla overlay to ultrahand, which is the same shit but made to work on the latest firmware. Also using syspatch instead of sigpatches, but again it's just a "you used to use this, now you use this", it's all still dragging and dropping files on your sd card
Is there like a checklist somewhere for things I need to do when updating firmware?
>>568928534Alright I bit, updated another card I had before doing it to my larger, harder to recover card. Games seem to work but I get an error (Failed to apply ‘nosigchk’!) when booting up cfw then it works normally, is that going to bite me in the ass later?>>568930678Put the firmware files in the firmware folder on root, copy and paste the latest Atmosphere, copy and paste the latest Hekate, copy and paste the latest sigpatches/syspatches in that order, am I missing anything?
>>568930819>I get an error (Failed to apply ‘nosigchk’!) when booting up cfw then it works normallyapparently it's because you need to delete the nosigchk line in the hekate_ipl ini file. As i'm extremely lazy i never did and i also get that error, but had no other issues so far
>>568928203why do you believe gbatransvestytes and non us?
>>568932435Because I've been tricked once, and also gbatrannies yell very loudly when something isn't working
>>568922141right here *unzips dick*
>>568258471so... i just updated atmos, Hekate and the syspatch.but just to be sure, how do i exactly update the firmware from there? im right now on 20.1.5
>>568943163Do what you did to get it to 20.1.5
>>568943163it says right there, you use daybreak. You also need the firmware files, which you download from that github also mentioned in that postin anycase you did the best thing by updating that stuff first (and i'm assuming checking everything works fine), as downgrading the cfw files is much easier than downgrading the fw in case anything goes wrong
>>568945247ok, is there any specific game that requires 22.1.0? since the latest Atmos says only basic support for that firmware and full support for 22.0.0
>>568946168idk, and i think the basic vs full support is really just dev semantics. All i know is that i'm on 22.1.0 myself and everything works, i guess it all depends on what you did with your system. If you just play games as is (ie no mods), which is what i do, then again everything works just fine. Cause afaik that's all the "less ram for homebrews" the newer firmwares affect, just playing games and stuff isn't affected at all
>>568951272i'm using Sysmmc, does the daybreak method work too there?supposedly it is possible to just use the regular update from system settings, but i get communication error, and no one is being clear about that last one.
>>568954142If piracy - DaybreakIf legit - use settings with your Hosts blocks renamed to emu
I was looking over the DBI thread on GBATemp and people constantly refer to some "russian site we can't post".What forum are they even talking about?

>>568954142yes it works, sysmmc is what i use too

>>568965026I've used 2 of those chink Wii2HDMI dongles and they're fine. The second one had a weird issue with how the resolution was displayed, it put thin black borders on top and bottom, they were barely noticeable but I never understood why it happened, oh and also it had slightly worse sound quality, so maybe it's a thing of luck. I believe the Bitfunx are more consistent.
>>568258471What happened with 20.5.0? I'm only familiar with 18.1.0. I recall the memory available for homebrew got drastically reduced. Did that ever get resolved?

We can send robots to Mars but getting a software hack for the Switch 1 is impossible? What is this tranny logic?
>>569001971there is a software hack for the switch 1, which has an implemented solution that works up until 4.1.0 - which can be fully impemented for up to 8.1.0 (though no one has had any interest in doing so because of access to the RCM bug)the exploits name is called "caffeine" (if up to 4.1.0)below its called "pegaswitch"

giving myself a fat fucking headache over wiiu vwii moddingi just want to play some downloaded fucking games man, but nowhere i look do i find a way to play them from the vwii menu, just through homebrew backup loaders and shit.the 3ds solved this shit, how cant the wiiu/vwii community do something half as good? imagine having to open an open_agb_firm equivalent if you wanted to play downloaded 3DS games. insanity!
>>569006083no one has a wii u
>>569001971it's "impossible" as in there's no one currently willing to do it, at least publiclyor for free
>>569019120who could realistically do it and how much are they asking for?
>>569006083???It's the same as on the Wii
>>569019430The time of a skilled individual who is willing to do it for free. Instead I suggest you find a skilled individual willing to put a picofly in your shit for free.
>>569024153For a fee I meant to say I am distracted because I'm typing this while watching a movie in the theater.
While I was waiting for the movie to start I was in a coffee shop and saw a girl playing a Switch. I wondered if it was modded. Highly likely in this country.
>>569002716>>569003310Pegaswitch was usermode only
Continued switch updates make software exploits a bit of a non-starter until the console is totally abandoned, if that ever happens.
>>569027003it will be abandoned eventually an exploit might pop up in a few years if people care enough by then
>>569029404Nintendo is usually more eager to abandon their shit than Sony is but all this money they're making off this system might change their mind. Consumer attitudes will likely be influenced by the price hikes too. People might be less willing to go out and buy a Switch 2. I don't see indie devs dropping support until someone forces their hand so there's still new shit to play on it if you want to spend money.

>>569022707???nothing i can find online says that i can play wii games straight through the vwii system menu, requiring me to use things like wiiflow and shit
>>569042881idk what you found but the vwii is literally, as in literally literally, a wii inside the wii u. Meaning, it does the very same things, and any guide you find for the wii also applies to vwii. I know i played skyward sword on my wii u, via vwii, and didn't need any of the shit you mentioned (though that was shortly before botw released, so like 10ish years ago?)
>>569042881https://www.gamebrew.org/wiki/WiiGSC
>>569043506maybe i'm not explaining things clearly enough. that's on me. what i want to know is if its possible to have downloaded wii games, .wbfs, accessible from the vwii's system menu, similar to the other channels, or if i need some bullshit like wiiflow.
want to play pic related on my old DS, are flash carts still a thing? doubt the DS has the brains for anything else
>>569045645You always needed a loader to play the games.The simpler method is to install the games to the Wii U menu.
>>569045645>>569045541why are you ignoring me>>569045707yeah there's gba and ds flashcarts still around. Not sure if the new pico ds can play gba games though as it's much cheaper than any other option
>>569045707If that's all you want to play buying a cheap repro will not hurt you. Don't do it for Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald because those games have a real time clock. You'll want a flash cart if that's on your list. EZ Flash Air is probably the cheapest that will get that job done.
BTW I checked and it's $4 for Fire Red or Leaf Green on aliexpress versus the 40ish dollars you'll spend on an EZ Flash Air. So it really comes down to how much you love the GBA library, even if it's just the library of Pokemon games.
>>569051992Let's be real, the rom will wipe itself after an hour on one of those fake carts.
>>569052684That wasn't my experience with buying them. I owned a few in the past. Not to say that they're high quality or anything. With a bit more digging I found this one on sale for $2.53:https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005011851704009.htm
>>569050416>>569051417>>569051992Thanks for the recs, I'll probably pick up a ds pico since I want to play B2/W2 at some point. I definitely want to play emerald (that kid never gave it back), so I'll grab a EZ Flash Air if the pico can't do gbaWhat's the deal with repros wiping themselves?
>>569054448Well you're more likely to experience issues with saved games than the actual rom disappearing. But that's also more likely to happen with Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald than Fire Red/Leaf Green in addition to the patched fuckery to make it so you can set the clock every time you restart the game, rather than having a real RTC. GBARunner2 is a thing but research compatibility before you rely on it for whichever specific games you want to play.
>>569054448>>569055141Not a perfect experience, but it is an option.
just bought a switch oled, can anyone tell me if this is the correct modchip and if its not missing any parts https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256807477897488.html
>>569056815Yes but be warned this is not something you should do as your first soldering project. If you are going to attempt it yourself watch YouTube videos of people doing it first to see if you think you're up for it.
>>569057038yeah I'm planning to buy it and have someone else do it. the repair shop gives a discount for bringing your own chip surprisingly.i really should learn micro soldering at one point tho. I'm always having to pay to fix shit I could do myself
>>569058057I wish that's something I could get good at. My clumsy trembling hands and fat fingers just aren't cut out for that. I got mine done for $50 including the picofly which seems perfectly reasonable.
>>569055141>>569055513Gotcha. I think I'll go with the gba flash cart, since I might want to transfer pokemon at some point and I've heard the repro carts can fail thereIt looks like the EZ Flash Air can transfer, in "Mode B", whatever that means
>>569066413When loading a game from Mode A it's copied into the cart's flash memory. Then when you switch it into Mode B and turn on the console it boots straight into the game rather than the flash cart's menu.

>>568994449>>568994891Oh nuts, also just realized that in replacing my atmosphere folder, I lost my hosts file blocking Nintendo servers. Didn't realize until I connected to wifi to ftp some files over and saw the news on the lock screen updated. Is this basically a guarantee that my console is gonna be banned now? Realistically it's not a big deal since I never play online and pirate all my games anyway, but I've always liked my console staying as virgin as possible in the event that I eventually go to sell it or something.
>>569108065Also is there a way to clear the downloaded news stories? I now permanently have a Bluey ad on my lockscreen :/ I don't want to install a custom theme if I can avoid it.
>>569108065ALSO also, why does Atmosphere not just automatically block Nintendo servers out of the box? When would you ever want to connect to Nintendo servers on CFW? It should be something you have to enable, not the other way around
>>569108065dem>>569108370tough>>569108758tittiesIf you had piracy you'll probably be banned soon yeahrip your switch anon :(
>>569109003fug. oh well. just more incentive to pirate everything I guess since now there's no going back. looking at ebay switch 1s are only selling for like $150 anyway so it's not like I'm losing much by not being able to sell it at market value. had no plans on selling soon anyway
>>569110181you'll never sell, why would you? it's not a lot of money you can't make other ways if you're in a hurryalso having basically the entire nintendo library on one console is kino
>>569110390I always figured theoretically if some other, better way to access all these games came about, I might sell. Like if a softmod or even a modchip came out for Switch 2 I might upgrade and sell the old switch. really it's about knowing I could if I wanted to, not necessarily that I ever would.i do agree that switch is kino. like 95% of my gayming is done on this thing. i love it
downloading several gigabytes worth of wii games from vimm wont have my ISP throw a fit, right? its uploading thats piracy, no? or should i spread obtaining the games out over several days?
>>569117258depends on where you live but just spread it out in different places like a library or strabucks/local coffee place
>>569117258>>569117774Not just where you live but your ISP. Hope you don't have xfinity.

>>569108758cause cfw by itself isn't dangerous, it's pretty much just piracy that will get you banned
imagine living in a place that cares about piracy
>>569117258>downloading several gigabytes worth of wii games from vimm wont have my ISP throw a fit, right? ISPs don't care, the only time they do is if if they get sent a notice1) Only p2p (torrenting, p2p streaming like the notorious old popcorn time) can be caught because the fucks wait in a swarm and log people's IPs2) Only TV and Movie MAFIAA care about trying to send people noticesworst places for torrenting are probably germany or usa. you can drop your country and I'll tell you how safe you are
What's the next homebrewing trend?

>>569141593>2) Only TV and Movie MAFIAA care about trying to send people noticesThis isn't true. A good friend of mine got one from downloading Phantasy Star Online
ps5 fpkg being teased again
>>569137230That's surprising. I'm sure if Nintendo could tell they'd ban anyone for any kind of unauthorized use. I bet those Atmosphere cucks went to great lengths to block any telemetry that indicates CFW but purposefully left behind any telemetry that indicates piracy so they can continue to stroke each other's egos about how morally superior they are to pirates for building a system ostensibly to enable piracy.
>>569155160that's not it at all, it's literally just that cfw by itself doesn't write anything to the system's logs while actually installing shit does. And it's not like you can manipulate what is written to the logs, as in doing that would still create altered logs that are sent to nintendo, which will crosscheck them and find out you did shit anyway. And not sending logs to nintendo would also alert them, so basically the only way is to clone the system and use the clone to do piracy shit, while the og one goes online with its logs intact, aka the whole sysmmc/emummc thing
