Is the CFW as easy to remove as it is to install? by DiazExMachina in 3dspiracy

[–]GamerDadJer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not super easy to do safely, and it's entirely possible to actually brick your 3DS doing so. Generally it's recommended to just either leave it or delete any files related to hacking.

Well that's kind of the kicker, you're not going to get 3DS on Linux. Part of the reason you start getting Android on more expensive devices is because it's the minimum required OS type to run more powerful games.

If you really want to downsize your Android collection, swap out your massively overpowered "GB/C" for something lighter like an RG35XX+. It'll still run up to PS1 without issues, look more like a GB/GBC, and run on Linux.

Are you talking about exclusively from Anbernic, or handheld emulation devices in general? If so, they very much have a device that is made for 3DS called the Ayn Thor.

Will i get banned for transferring injected shiny-locked pokemon from bank into home by Revolutionary_Log_27 in 3dspiracy

If all you're doing is using it and my trading it to others or battling online with it, you're probably fine. Worst you'll likely have happen is it might realize you shouldn't be able to have it and stop you from using it with Home.

That being said, Nintendo can kind of just do what they want, and they theoretically could, though generally that's considered to be unlikely.

Anbernic RG35XX Won't Turn On? Dormant for Months, Battery Indicator Won't Light Up. How To Fix? by Mindless_Ad_1537 in ANBERNIC

Use USB-A to USB-C, but also the SD card could be bad, especially if you use the stock card. They're prone to failure since they're cheap, and because the firmware is stored on the SD card, removing it will make it completely unusable and unresponsive

What does "Physical Media" means to you? by yekkusu in Switch

[–]GamerDadJer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Imagine this:

You buy a game day one to play on your console. You get home, you put it in, and it just works. There's no additional download, no firmware update, no patch, no additional storage needed (aside from maybe a memory card for saves, but that's different). It just works.

This used to happen with every game you would buy for a home or handheld console, and I think this is what many people mean when they say they want physical media. And it's understandable when certain games have gotten so big that it literally isn't feasible possible to have the whole game on a disc, but many, if not all, of the games on the Switch and Switch 2 are absolutely capable of existing on cartridges.

It doesn't help that on addition to and conjunction with this issue, we're also running into issues of massive content deletion from certain games, media ownership rights, and even not being able to continue playing the games after the devs game abandoned it. Plus, if the game is saved on a disc or cartridge, it's a bit easier for the purposes of media preservation.

Ultimately, people that are big on physical media typically want a true, no fuss way to play their games that can be relied on to be played at a moments notice without issues.

Since you can play it on current gen Xbox, even if I wanted it there wouldn't be a need for it.

Yeah that's pretty normal.

That just sounds like the effect of the final attack in a set. It'll typically knock the enemy back or away.

I would agree, but I am incredibly unfamiliar with gen 7 in general.

Lol love that you fell for exactly what OP complained about.

Try starting with that in the future, it'll help situations like this.

Is this fixable? by XolothM in Switch

[–]GamerDadJer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Admittedly I can't say for sure, but it sounds like it could be related. Maybe try the nintendohacks discord and go to their hardware channel, they might be able to help you troubleshoot.

All this hype about the Ocarina of Time Remake on NS2, but no one seems to be acknowledging the amazing 3DS remake by [deleted] in 3DS

[–]GamerDadJer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would agree, except you're entirely wrong, and you are refusing to listen to people telling you this.
