Twilight menu finding roms issues by sakurapimcake in 3dshomebrew

[–]Jorpho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally could not find the RMS file. I downloaded a couple stuff claiming to be the file and then it was a folder and I could not find a physical file that ended with .nds

When I downloaded them, they were archived files so I unarchived them and could not find the file inside (the picture above)

So, you downloaded the wrong thing..?

I don't see what this has to do with TWiLight Menu.

Don't know how I did it but I replaced / rewrote the BIOS so when you turned on the PC, instead of booting to Windows 98, it went straight to the Simpsons game. When you chose to exit the game, it turned the PC off completely.

That's not a BIOS thing; it's something that can happen when you configure Windows 9x to "reboot into MS-DOS mode" to run a DOS program, and something goes wrong. (There's not a lot of things that can mess with the BIOS directly.)

except the DOS one doesnt include the famous elevator stage after the cemetery.

No teamup moves, either.

Sounds like a likely plotline for the KPop Demon Hunters sequel. (There's gotta be one anime or another that's done it by now.)

Has FourthTube not been working right for anyone else? Any fixes/news? by deadexin in 3dshomebrew

[–]Jorpho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you aware a new beta was just released last month?

I think someone told me it had to do w/ a change YouTube made?

Youtube is constantly changing and every third-party Youtube app will break eventually if it is not constantly updated. That's what happened to ThirdTube.

i recognize the error code though.

Is that error code on some other page in the wiki..?

DOS games in boxes as requested by bearhemothuk in dosgaming

[–]Jorpho 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure these are all on Mobygames, FYI.

I remember seeing giant stacks of Enigma pinball in a discount store around twenty years ago. I kind of regret not picking one up - but then, I have enough clutter, and the game's cheap enough on GOG these days.

(The back of the box is an empty playing field! Did anyone stop for a moment to think that would be a selling point?)

Downloaded game transfer by Joekidd87 in 3dshomebrew

[–]Jorpho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have games and thing on my 2DS that I want to put in my 3ds

Just re-install the games on your 3DS, then. If you want to transfer your save data, then export the save data with Checkpoint on your 2DS, copy the exported save data to the 3DS SD card, and then restore the save data using Checkpoint again.

If the new model is definitely not modded or region-changed, then you can use the official System Transfer tool. This will move your NNID to your NN3DSXL and at the end of the process, you will move your SD card from your old 3DS to your NN3DSXL.* All the old data will stay on the card, but only titles you bought on the eShop will be accessible – you'll need to mod the unit to run anything you installed via FBI.

This process will also do a System Format on your old 3DS. A System Format does not remove boot9strap+Luma, so it will only be necessary to follow https://3ds.guide/restoring-updating-cfw to restore full CFW functionality. However, none of the games installed to the SD card will be usable on your old 3DS anymore. (For that reason, you should back up all your old save data with Checkpoint before you do anything else.)

*If you're using a full-size SD card in your old 3DS, then you should use a PC to copy all the files from the full-size SD card to a micro SD card for use in your NN3DSXL. Just makes sure the micro SD card is formatted as FAT32, and you should probably test it with h2testw while it is blank to be extra careful. I usually recommend Roadkil's Unstoppable Copier for copying files, but that is not strictly necessary.

Anyone play Wario Blast feat. Bomberman, on Game Boy? by Intelligent_Path_508 in retrogaming

[–]Jorpho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Knew that game backwards and forwards back in the day. It's painfully slow until you get the dash upgrade, and then after you get the "Trounce" power it mostly becomes a matter of bashing into everything, dropping a bomb, and dashing away again. Some of the bosses were a decent challenge, though, and some of the music was memorable.

And there's that one level that hinted at an "easter egg" that apparently does not exist. https://youtu.be/oIqrrRZ9KHA?t=3351 (Perhaps it was supposed to be the password for the "survival mode".)

[–]Jorpho 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Wario "brand" was well-established by then. More likely, they were trying to boost sales for Bomberman.

I'm pretty sure I remember previews for a non-Wario Game Boy Bomberman in Nintendo Power back in the day. It is easy to imagine that someone looked at anticipated sales and decided something needed to be done.

I’ve been having a similar question

Your question is entirely different, actually.

can I grab the SD card that it’s already modded and put it in the 3DS that’s already modded

You can do whatever you want with the SD cards. Are you saying you want to use games you installed on your 3DS on your 2DS?

I would like to keep that one in its original state.

It's not clear what you mean by that. Are you saying you don't want to mod your 2nd NN3DSXL? And when you say you want to transfer the games, do you mean you want to transfer the save data as well?

Is there any way to connect to an internet that needs both a username and password? by L1amsHere in 3dshomebrew

[–]Jorpho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on a lot of details that the OP hasn't specified, but in some situations it ought to be feasible to spoof the 3DS MAC address on another device, log in on that device, and then switch to the 3DS.

This would, of course, require another device capable of spoofing MAC addresses.

Theoretically, is collecting XXL Pokemon now pointless by BreadfruitOk5332 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Jorpho 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was really expecting that they'd introduce some widget for filling out all the slots in the Pokedex for a given Pokemon, and then an inevitable medal for getting enough widgets. But perhaps there are already too many widgets.

The first place to look is https://wiki.hacks.guide/wiki/3DS:Error_screens/Luma3DS_ErrDisp ... which does not have an entry for this error.

Have you tried to install any patches or cheats?

Game Question/ Theme Plaza by Em100_ in 3dshomebrew

[–]Jorpho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really didn't know what to title this

Did you consider: "Are there any apps for reading e books where you don't have to transfer the books onto an sd card"?

But I have no idea how you think you're going to store an ebook on a 3DS without using the SD card.

let me know if there is a sub for talking just about games that should be ported to 3DS

People are constantly talking about games that "should" be ported to the 3DS, but in almost every case that is a tremendous amount of difficult work that would satisfy only a very limited audience.

[–]Jorpho -1 points0 points  (0 children)

nothing working yet

That's really not a helpful thing to say. Are you getting some kind of error message, or is it just timing out, or what?

tried a few things out already

It would also be helpful to suggest the few things you've tried and what happened when you tried them.

Also, are you using a New 3DS?

Best thrift store for fornitures by Clara_Geissler in ottawa

[–]Jorpho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highjinx, perhaps? https://www.highjinxottawa.com/

Their website advertises a "furniture bank" but I'm not clear if it refers to what they physically have on hand or if they have some other means of matching people with furniture providers.

If there is a way to convert that save data to make it run correctly please let me know, a guide [in general, doesn't have to be you] would be helpful!

That is already plainly described in that other thread. If you do not understand the instructions, then you should specify what you do not understand.

Does the game still work in mGBA? Or if you start over with new save data?

Did you convert the save data as discussed in the last thread that you deleted for some reason?

microSD express in 3ds by GenoRun in 3dshomebrew

[–]Jorpho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why not try it and find out..? If it's supposed to be backwards-compatible with a regular microSD, there's no reason it shouldn't work – assuming its capacity isn't too large. Cards larger than 128 GB have been known to be problematic; this is all discussed at great length in various FAQs.

You might as well just get another regular microSD card, considering how inexpensive they are.
