So I have two Wii Us now. I've only ever played Splatoon online so I was curious what my wife and I could tackle together. Especially with co-op in mind, but Vs will be fine too. We've played more than a few normal local multiplayer titles and loved the system for it. I know there's Bayonetta 2 coop, MonHun 3, Mass Effect 3... Anything else worth looking at for multiplayer on 2 Wiius?

I tried poking around on google, but found nothing. Does anyone here know about the possibility of modding Slay the Spire on a homebrewed Switch?

Theoretically it's possible but it depends on how the game was ported / if someone is gonna put forth the work to bring PC mods over.

Wii homebrew question, bit of a stretch really, but for TimeSplitters 2 GameCube, does anyone have a 100% save file?

I said come in! posted:Wii homebrew question, bit of a stretch really, but for TimeSplitters 2 GameCube, does anyone have a 100% save file? edit: beaten by randomferret with the same save file. How are you playing the game/using the saved games? Do you have an actual gamecube memory card in your Wii? Dropbox link to .gci file is a dropbox link from some wordpress that says everything is unlocked but not all the awards are completed: The wordpress blog page with the save If you're using a gamecube memory card plugged into the wii you can just use https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Gamecube_Saver to add it to your memory card. If you're using nintendont and an emulated memorycard you'll have to follow this guide on gbatemp and use dolphin to convert the save to raw format: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-convert-gci-gcs-or-sav-saves-to-raw.385808/ Not sure how making a new raw memorycard file with only one save on it will effect your other nintendont saves and the emulated memorycard since I've never used nintendont. I'd back stuff up just in case though I think you can just make nintendont look for multiple memorycards.

Using Nintendont. Thank you so much for the help! [edit] That save file it turns out is a user created map.  I tried that save file anyways and now TimeSplitters 2 just won't load period, my Wii turns off after 30 seconds. It's just this game specifically because I tried another game and it loaded just fine. I said come in! fucked around with this message at 04:31 on Oct 9, 2019 |

I checked GameFAQs because they've got 100% saves for everything but they surprisingly didn't have anything for this widely beloved game.

There must be something about TimeSplitter 2 save files that prevent sharing them. Next thing I want to figure out is cheat files with Nintendon't. I haven't been able to get this to work.

Is there a compelling reason to go with either WiiU method (temp vs cold boot) over the other?

Temp is probably safer if you have kids that might muck around with your files. Otherwise, coldboot is fine. Just don't delete the DS game you use for it. (It'll get renamed to something like, "DON'T DELETE ME," so you should know which one it is.)

I soft modded my Wii using a guide from Mar 2019, the guide recommended USB Loader GX and d2x v10 beta53 and beta 52. After the mod, I put in a couple genuine Wii discs to play games the old fashioned way, and the promptly requested to update my Wii system. Despite already running 4.3U, the updates ran and over wrote IOS 249. I never lost the Homebrew channel, but I eventually figured out how to re-install d2x back in IOS 249. I've read more about this and I think it might be possible for a retail Wii disc to not only overwrite d2x, but also brick my Wii. Is there a way to prevent retail Wii games from attempting to update my console? I think I've seen that ModMii will replace a lot of system IOS files with the same file, but a higher version number thus preventing disc based games from updating. Is this correct, is ModMii safe to use?

From the standpoint of a hacked wii-u is there any reason I shouldn’t use a PAL system in the US? I imagine the HDMI out is fine, long gone are the days of 50hz PAL right? Can it be hacked to read NTSC discs?

Dunno but you can certainly install NTSC games as if they were store titles, same net result I guess

So, because of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F57nH6YAE8o I got re-interested in Wii-U hacking, but because my son still regularly plays our Wii-U, I wanted a separate one to hack up and basically kill the "just works" kid friendliness of. If you have a Wii sitting around to steal the power cable and sensor bar from, the below machines arent a bad deal if you're looking for a cheap Wii U. Cheaper than the gamestop ones, and for whatever reason, my local FB Marketplace seems to still want $100-$150 for Wii-U's https://www.ebay.com/itm/223536777293 My research indicates that once hacked, the PAL versions are the same as the NTSC ones

I don't see what you could do to make it less kids friendly. Just avoid using the coldboot variant and there'll be no way to shoot yourself in the foot.

Why oh why did Nintendo have to use such cheap glossy plastic. Check Walmart. Mine had the afterburner wireless controller for WiiU for $7 or $9.

While not, technically speaking, homebrew, I am more excited for this device than I should be: https://twitter.com/analogue/status/1184484202772926466?s=21 super curious if my EZ Flash IV works on it

If it's anything like their other FPGA clones, it'll work with virtually anything the original systems worked with as long as it physically fits. Edit: and since it's a flashcart you're asking about, there's usually a subsequent jailbreak that allows playing ROMs off SD cards anyway.

Judging from their past releases, there will probably be a way to directly load roms on to it so flashcards won’t be necessary.

Yeah I saw that too. My only other issue is that it’s $199 when you can get GBA clones for $60. I really want to see some reviews before I jump in. I think if it were like $100-$150 I would be all over it but $199 is switch lite territory and they charge something like $30 for shipping (according to the retro thread).

What you're buying with Analogue is the utmost quality. I completely trust their build quality and apparently the screen on this thing is supposed to be otherworldly. It's also not software emulation but multiple (!) fpgas which is basically computer science alchemy for turning a single chip into actual hardware. I'm hugely nostalgic for all things Game Boy so I have no issues spending $200 if the device is anywhere near advertised. If you're just looking for a handheld you can throw an SD card full of roms on and play retro games there's probably plenty of better suited devices out there for less than half the cost.

I absolutely agree I just can’t see blindly spending the $200+ on it with out some reviews and hands on. If it were cheaper I’d probably go in blind. On paper it seems like everything I’ve wanted from a retro device.

It's definitely a boutique product for the niche that wants accurate hardware emulation. If you are fine with the performance (and more importantly, performance vs. price) of the various Chinese handheld emulator devices by all means save your money. And yeah, while buying a used GBA is cheaper (even modding in a backlit screen), if the Analogue Pocket gets the jailbreak that allows rom loading from an SD card, you'd save a lot of money on GB/GBA everdrives for a real GBA for a (hopefully) identical experience.

I’m more excited about the Analogue Pocket than I am for 9th gen consoles. I’ll definitely spend the money if it’s as good as it looks and it could easily load roms.

Ok, at my wits end here and google is not helping me. I'm following wiiu.hacks.guide, and I'm at the point where I should do a NAND backup. No matter what I do with my SD card, I get the error "first partition not fat32", and it crashes. I'm using guiformat, and I've done 16k, 32k and 64k allocations to no avail. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Is it not capable of reading a 128gb card or something?

Wii u isn't setup that way. You can put Wii homebrew and Wii or gamecube games on it though for Wii mode.

Good to know I had hardly messed with vWii mode really. 'Course I also am running around with a usb stick for my wii u "hdd." I didn't notice any real issues in mario 3d world and botw but I'm sure that could potentially cause load time or "oh the usb stick died. poo poo" issues

Looks like the 128 gig card was the problem. Dropping to the 32 and doing the same process worked fine.
