Challenged to live-toot games that I, apparently, should have played decades ago? I dabble in #retrogaming, #retrocomputing, #pinball, #3DPrinting, and other stuff as well.

If you're any kind of decent person, I'm happy to be here with you. Your biology and choices don't bother me. I'm on the side that welcomes foreigners, LGBTQ+ people, neurodiverse folks, and everyone else who wants to read my thoughts about computers and games and fun.

No Nazis. Ever. Under any circumstances.

If you are looking to mod a Nintendo 3DS or Nintendo Wii/Wii U, I used these guides:

https://3ds.hacks.guide/

https://wiiu.hacks.guide/

https://wii.guide/

Everything went smoothly for all devices. It had no effect at all on online functionality. In my experience, there's a lot more homebrew available for the 3DS and Wii than for the Wii U, but I figure that's just down to the install bases for the systems.

Mod your devices and add or restore the functionality you want.

I've seen it suggested that accounts should have introductory posts, and I never really did that. So, better late than never:

I play video and computer games. Always have - for decades - always will. But there are always more games worth playing than I'll ever have time to play at any given moment. Fortunately, as I've grown older, I have much less of an impulse to play the latest good thing, and I'll instead happily putter around with something that came out 5, 10, 20, or more years ago.

I wanted to play Earthion (https://earthiongame.com/) on my #3DS, because why not? It works fine on a Linux PC using the BlastEm emulator (https://www.retrodev.com/blastem/), but picoDrive on my 3DS fails to run it: I just get a black screen and no audio. It isn't frozen; I can get into the picoDrive menus change settings, exit out to the Home screen just fine.

Has anyone here had any luck?

(In case anyone wants to know, I purchased Earthion on Steam and extracted the ROM.)
