Those games had a publisher telling him no to features and needing to finish existing stuff and not have scope creep to begin with. I said unchained peter for a reason :p

Pretty sure its the unchained peter molyneux that was the birth and death of star citizen’s development :p

Oh ye, makes sense. I shoot at a foam target we hung between 2 trees because we dont like the things you shoot at, but i imagine arrows die quickly haha.
Even we destroy each other’s arrows once in a while haha

Seeing how my take down recurve easily cost 200, youve been set for life i think haha

What is defined as copy here? Cartridge data (game data, not firmware etc) is encrypted and can only be accessed by a protocol that is like spi, but is proprietary, by a specific chip running nintendo code. Or is a copy a full backup of everything on the chip?
Is the copy a raw copy? Has the data been modified/decrypted/or any algorithm processed it?
These things define wether a copy falls under this or not. Check what the fineprint or laws defines what ’ a copy’ is exactly in this case.
If it doesnt, what i mentioned are important to see if what you said apply here or not.

Like @[email protected] said, its only legal if nothing is done with the data. Any decryption using a nintendo key is infact, illegal, and falls under piracy.

This is why dolphin was removed from steam, because they do exactly that. Decrypt the data to use it.

If the process of dumping does any encryption or decryption, you also get in trouble in what they said.

These are the laws, and the lawyer you asked this too must not have been specialised in ip law, copyright and games, or doesnt know the technical details to decide on this.

The mig chip uses a proprietary protocol to send data of a partly, semi decrypted, game image. That will not go well in court, no matter if the rom was obtained legally.

Interesting writeup with some interesting techniques. I should read these some more

Even if that is legal (it isnt), but it will be circumvention of encryption at worst and recreation of protected algorithms, code and keys in a non-nintendo product at best ( and thats before talking about game cartridge content ).
Last i checked that is still illegal hehe

Yes, but it was only a few games when they were played/used on flashcarts before the game released :p
Happened with phantasy star zero iirc
It was also not nintendo’s choice but the game devs. So it was game bound, not console bound

Same. I agree that people are too stupid to know what apps they should use. But that also includes those using some of apples closed down, limited apps and features haha

Even today i find it important as the knowledge of how things work is vanishing and many just accept it works. But how will we build upon an idea if everyone forgets how it works?
There is also the idea within software that layers of bodgework upon one another creates overcomplex and unstable software. Thats everything but software you want to ship.
I understand you dont want all hobby work to reach professional levels, specially if youre trying something new! Thats ok!

Its just once you reach a certain level things have to change to make it not suck, dont build on that :')
Also one of the reasons i dont like retroarch.
But i will accept they fill a need that is very much wanted and needed by people and there isnt really anything like it

I get that, but imo thats dangerous. I will admit i live for tech and i get the basics of it all but understanding it is imo important when changing such settings because it can create other issues too.

But maybe im not the correct person to remark on this because i have a distaste for retroarch :p

I find this kinda… Bullshit.
Bluetooth controller’s lag does not get lowered by turning on game mode on your tv. All you did was lower the response time of your tv to display the image quicker ( by turning off some image processing ). Your bluetooth controller will still lag lol.

As for the settings in retroarch, that could change when it’ll process the input and can lower the lag, but without a list of the settings, im calling bs there too.

Edit: frame delay? Really? That will just delay the frame so its more in sync with input because input processing is not in sync. Nice one

It was announced in may on microsoft build event ^^
I call it nano for windows haha

Oh im not saying its perfect or any good, just saying what the logic was :p

I personally use both azerty and qwerty lol

Yes, because in french you need the special characters more often than numbers

Im not french and we still use this piece of shit. Thanks belgium.

Also, us/international qwerty isnt that great either imo. Uk qwerty is better

True, it was always bad :p

Saw this post this morning and was thinking about how to delete it ( while falling back asleep ). Escaping the ~, ofc that’d work! I feel so stupid now haha

I know what i did to the ps3, and i know what needs to be done. I barely use the ps3 so its fine for my case. The real fix can also be to redo the ihs so the solder doesnt crack or get damaged again because of heat. Also, ps3 also got a lot easier to debug with syscon, which was also only (relatively) recently discovered. Sure made debugging the ps3 easier haha. Ive left the connection available on my ps3 for future usage hehe

Ye no, ive have a ps3 that ylod which i reflowed back to life. After it was working again i started digging and the temps the core was reporting wasnt even close to the ihs that i measured with thermal couple. Also the thermal paste is on top of the ihs, not under it and it wasnt soldered in place. Early ps3’s did cook themselves. Less than 360 by a long shot, but they still did!
Also, side note, its funny how some 360’s rrod was not due to the heat issue but can also be caused by power supply failure or the plug being faulty. Thats how i got and fixed my 360 🤣
