@EeveeEuphoria to be fair theyve been putting random other games in sonic games since adventure

i did a funny

nintendo told steam to remove dolphin from their store, allegedly due to it's hardcoded inclusion of the wii common key

so here's a flag that represents the wii's common key, in hexadecimal form :)

EDIT: oops inkscape fucked it up in the export, i fixed it now lol
EDIT 2: fix'd info, everyone was wrong apparantly! doesn't change much but still

nintendo's really having a blast telling everyone to pirate their games! so far in the past couple of months, nintendo has:

- shut down the eshop for wii u/3ds
- issued a DMCA to lockpickRCM, preventing switch owners from legally obtaining keys needed for emulation (and it caused a switch emulator to shut down due to fears they'd be DMCA'd too)
- sent a new 3DS update that blocked all free methods of homebrewing the console
- and just recently, they told steam to take down the dolphin emulator

remember: pirating nintendo games is good.
(edit: fix'd some info!)

do you think some cubones ever came across a different skull and were like "that's cooler than my mom's skull"

One of the main issues with online games is that when hosting the game is no longer profitable for the developers the game tends to become completely unplayable. A huge loss for preservation.

Old games tended to allow users to host their own servers, so don't have that issue as much. Modern games, not so much.

Some games get lucky enough to find a community with the skills to reverse engineer, others don't.

Cooler, knockoutcity.com/updates/knock released a self-hostable version of their game.

Make a Doom map! I'm running RAMP for the third year - from now until the end of June, I'm encouraging beginners to give Doom mapping a try and to be part of a larger project. See ramp.teamouse.net/ for this and previous years' projects!

FFMPEG is so great… whatever it is you need to do with a video file, all you have to do is type "ffmpeg [thing i need to do]" into Google, copy-paste your first result, and then it doesn't fucking work

@Mareepy @heatherhorns ahh fair. i have lots of ways to play gba games though (up to and including a gba flashcart!) - i was more hoping for games specific to the 3ds
