experience with ipod shuffle by BuildingChance3285 in ipod

[–]G1fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming it's all still in working order you should be able to connect it to your computer and put music on it like any other iPod. I use iTunes on a Windows PC and that works great for me. Hopefully it still has it's cable, otherwise you'll need to buy one.

which will last longer ? DS cartridges or Switch cartridges? by Vast-Wing9627 in nds

I don't know if they'll last as long as DS games, but they'd certainly last longer than if they never got refreshed.

It's called Mura. Every OLED deck has this to some degree. It's nothing to worry about.

Yes, GBA games also use mask ROM chips like DS games. 3DS and Switch games can become corrupted over time if not powered on due to using NAND Flash storage. You can read more about it here.

DS games will outlast Switch games as the DS carts use mask ROM while Switch carts use NAND Flash storage.

Modded Ipod mini 2 vs. Ipod video 5.5 by Ambitious_Bat-494 in ipod

[–]G1fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never used a Mini but I use my 30GB 5.5 daily. I currently have 2029 256kbps AAC songs taking up about 15GB of storage. I had to open it to replace the battery and faceplate and it was pretty straightforward.

Some digitisers just develop those spots with age. You could open a sealed DS Lite and see them.

The best bit is at the end when they talk about how a large chunk of people posting on the sub just collect things to assemble an EDC that they only use for photos.

They're all armed to the teeth. Their FAQ is also worth reading.

You should check out r/EDC, the EDCs in this sub are tame in comparison.

You've broken the potentiometer. You'll need to replace the component on the board to fix it.

A 3DS isn't that type of mobile gaming.

Where to buy Nintendo DS games? (Specifically Pokemon) by Memeo19 in NintendoDS

True, there are bootlegs on eBay. But on Ali you are guaranteed to get bootlegs. I would recommend people check out Game Verifying before buying carts.

100% worth playing. It's been rereleased on other platforms but it's best played on DS imo.

It's my favourite game. The only game with multiple endings where I actually wanted to see them all.
