CFW can now go into and out of sleep mode so it's less of a problem, but Briccmii corrupts boot0 so that the switch will always boot into recovery mode: https://github.com/rajkosto/briccmii

Injecting a gb rom into a super gameboy rom isn't possible because the super gameboy wasn't actually super nintendo software, it was its own piece of hardware that patched into the super nintendo controls and display, like the sega 32x. There are a couple of RetroArch cores that support super gameboy, but you need to do some hacky stuff to get them working that Hakchi doesn't do.

Instead of using the complex, CLI-based ‘subsystem’ launch commands, it looks for the necessary files in the system/BIOS directory whenever you feed the core a *.gb/c file.

Linux doesn't touch any of the internal files, it's very unlikely that Nintendo will be able to detect it. If you're really worried about it, use separate sd cards and switch to airplane mode to use Linux. There are a couple of problems still. Linux can't access the native sound output so you only get audio if you connect to a Bluetooth speaker, and it's handheld mode only. It can't use the dock or connect wirelessly to the joy cons. Once those two things get sorted out, it'll be a better emulation machine than the psp and wiiu combined.

Yeah, and it's not much of a hoop. Just grab anything conductive that can ground the rightmost pin on the right joycon dock, and hold volume up when you turn it on. Most people bridge the first and last pins but anything bigger than a paperclip should be enough to ground it on its own

I've been keeping my switch on 4.10 because of vague rumours of coldboot and untethered softmods and whatnot, but with autoRCM and fuseless updating is there any point at all in keeping an old firmware? Even emunand doesn't seem to be worth much at this point. Should I just bite the bullet and get my eshop access back?

The Switch is now officially supported by RetroArch https://www.libretro.com/index.php/retroarch-1-7-5-introducing-libnx-switch-version/ What this means is that the RetroNX homebrew emulator that was forked off of RA has been merged back into the main branch. It doesn't mean a lot right now, but hopefully this will mean more developers giving a little attention to the Switch port when updating cores and such.

azurite posted:One thing I was never clear on was: Does Atmosphere modify the firmware so you don't need RCM, or do you still need to use RCM to start CFW every time? It still works exactly the same as every other cfw, the only advantage Atmosphere has is that it blocks a lot of Switch telemetry reporting. Might make you less likely to get banned, nobody knows for sure

# ¿ Oct 17, 2018 19:27 |

Yeah, just stick with what you've got. They're working on emunand support which should let you switch on the fly between cfw and stock firmware and supposedly there's a possibility for coldboot in the future, but reinx will probably add that as soon as it's working

The Switch doesn't use a legitimate implementation of exfat, the same way it doesn't use a legitimate implementation of usb-c, and force-stopping a process that accesses the sd card can corrupt the filesystem. The most common way to access the homebrew launcher is to replace the gallery with it, which the switch just force quits when you exit. If you've got the homebrew launcher as an nbs file that eliminates that problem, but homebrew stuff also tends to crash a lot. Since Nintendo isn't likely to ever fix their exfat implementation, best to just go with fat32. If you want to pirate, there are filesplitters you can use to get around the 4gb limit flavor.flv fucked around with this message at 18:49 on Oct 20, 2018 |

This is interesting: https://gbatemp.net/threads/use-atmosphere-to-access-full-ram-with-homebrews-without-nsp.5212 Most homebrew setups replace the gallery app with the homebrew loader, but the photo gallery doesn't have access to the full ram capacity of the switch and therefore neither do any of the apps you launch through it. You can get around that by installing a custom-made .nsp and putting the homebrew loader or even the homebrew app right on your game list, but Nintendo will almost certainly ban you if you go online with that setup. This lets you replace a legitimate eshop game instead of the photo gallery, so you can have full ram access without worrying about your console phoning home and telling Nintendo that you're playing retroarch. It should also help mitigate some of the exfat problems I mentioned in my last post

https://reinx.guide covers everything you want and more It's not worth buying an rcm injector unless you're on the bleeding edge of homebrew stuff that crashes a lot and you don't have an Android phone. Incidentally, I am on the bleeding edge of homebrew stuff and I just had my switch crash while connected to Wi-Fi and got banned. They don't just ban you from Nintendo's servers either, I can't play Fortnite (fine with that) or Jackbox (gently caress you Nintendo) anymore

I've been pretty happy with this thing, too: https://www.amazon.com/Handheld-Console-Birthday-Presents-Children/dp/B0796RLW6N They got ahold of the original supplier that still makes the screen for the Game Boy Micro, so it's pixel perfect. The emulation is a little spotty in weird places, like Doom 1 and 2 run like poo poo, but Driver 3 with actual polygon graphics runs fine. I've been using it to play through the megaman battle network games lately

It's not as easy to get banned as it sounds, I only got banned after retroarch crashed multiple times and sent error reports. I could have stayed in airplane mode while playing and then done a nand restore or used a vpn to block Nintendo's server ip and probably been okay.

The switch burns the fuses on the first boot after an update, so if anybody restarts your switch for any reason, update or no, you'll be stuck on higher firmware. You'll want to set up AutoRCM so that it can't boot without a payload injection. Small price to pay. Annoying if you're at a party playing smash and the system crashes when you left your usb-c cable at home so you can't turn the switch back on, but that's a rare edge case that only happened to me once this week.

I had a gateway, and I never had a problem with it. I loaded it up a 32 gig microsd full of .3ds files and that was more than enough to last until I got bored with the 3ds entirely and threw it in a drawer.

You still need to mod the firmware to make the flash card work, at least with the gateway, and it's not any easier than setting up a proper custom firmware which will be much more versatile and give you access to a much bigger library.

Worse part is Metal Gear Acid didn’t even work 😢 As long as it didn't crash you should be okay. I'm pretty sure I only got banned because I was using the very first release of retroarch and it crashed multiple times while I was connected to the internet and sending crash reports. Metal Gear Acid has never worked, unfortunately. I don't know what they did differently with that game but PPSSPP just cannot run it and probably never will since it's not popular enough to bother writing custom code for.
