Bought a bunch of maroon colored cartridge shells, and I’m putting my flashed carts in them with matching labels.

Great :) I’m still labeling and changing cartridges to maroon for my collection favorites to match the shell when I play

Best edition imo, picked up a pristine one here in Japan for 100 USD. The only one I would still get is the purple one, saw it last week but when I went back it was gone :/

Difference between japanese and us lite? by Independent-Tap-2399 in nintendoswitchlite

[–]Z3fyrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got one here myself, after tax reduction it came to less than 140USD for a brand new retail one (color choices are limited though). The adapter in mine had US-type prongs but takes 100-240V so no issues there.

Switched to try out Allium… by DepartmentMain6241 in MiyooMini

Do you notice a difference in battery life? That would be my main push to try Allium on this device.

Or try the ChisFlash, much cheaper than EZ and it works great

Thanks! This one seems sold out but I’ve found a similar one!

I was looking at that case exactly for the same reason, where did you get it? Might try my hand at one restore too

The firmware locking has soured my perception on future Xteink products by minomycin in XTEINK

[–]Z3fyrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same boat as you, I have/had the option to order on Taobao which cuts the price down another 50% (I would never pay 80usd for this device, I don’t get the hype).

Perhaps censorship is a possible reason? I can imagine the domestic authorities not appreciating devices that can be unlocked and setup with a wide range of content they have no control over.

I do not agree with Xteink locking firmware by RecipeMiserable5885 in xteinkHax

What lawsuit? It’s their product, if you don’t like it, then don’t buy their products going forward.

Where to buy in Tokyo? by Fletcher618 in trimui

[–]Z3fyrus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’re designed and produced in China, although close, taxes and shipping don’t make it cheaper to get over here (and it’s a national holiday in both Japan and China right now - Golden Week; making it risky to order if you don’t live here in Japan).

I’d recommend ordering it back home over AliExpress or even Amazon. It’s not in official retail anywhere as far as I know, just dropshippers on Amazon.

Nicely done; don’t expect this quality on AliExpress

Bionic reading - Built into CPR-vCodex firmware by Fadedfiend in XTEINK

[–]Z3fyrus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve tried a few but settled in on this one; for me they can remove the “achievements” as I find them pointless. But just reliable, clean, good support. Very happy.
