Heres some nice Virtual Boy News:
Superstar VB homebrewer Martin Kujaczynski has just launched an indiegogo crowdfunding campaign in order to be able to spend the rest of the year finishing up his VB Music Tracker, the respective sound player code, as well as new game called "Bombenleger", that bears a striking resemblence to Bomberman.
Most homebrew games and demos for the Virtual Boy have inferior sound and music due to the lack of proper sound tools. To change that fact I started the development of a music tracker that will allow developers and composers to create high quality music for the Virtual Boy. At the moment the tool is half-finished. If the funding campaign is successful, I will spend the next few weeks working full time on the project to complete it till the end of December.
To raise interest in the campaign I decided to pair it with the development of a small but fun game for the VB. It's similar to a well know game, where you have to make your way through a labyrinth by placing bombs to destroy walls and defeat enemies.
The campaign will run for a week only two weeks and requires €1,200 to be raised. Let's make is a success!
See all the info here.

Nintendo recently updated their old original Wii firmware, and they also more recently announced they shutting-down the 'Internet' on the old outdated Wii's, as such some of current exploits will stop working so there is need for new easy 'entry point' @Fullmetal5 has detailed out his idea of attack plan using the fact that with the recent firmware update Nintendo added a nice 'spot' for us.  Alright, so with Nintendo shutting down the E-Shop there won't be a way of getting the Internet Channel anymore which means no more FlashHax. So we need another exploit that works without sd cards and now only works with whatever default channels are installed on the Wii. So what's the attack surface for the default channels?
Well luckily for us Nintendo decided to have their EULA for the Wii be updatable, and they decided to do this by making the EULA view actually just be Opera pointed at the page " http://cfh.wapp.wii.com/eula/XXX/YY.html". Where XXX is the country code and YY is the language. And since they get the page over http that means if we change the dns servers then we can switch the page out for whatever we want.
The actual vulnerability being exploited here will be posted soon when the write up for it is done but the name of this exploit should give you a pretty good idea. (For anyone looking for a fun exercise try figuring this exploit out yourself.)
How to setup str2hax:- Go to the Wii's settings the under Internet select Connection Settings and choose your currently active connection.
- Select Change settings and scroll to the right until you get to Auto-Obtain DNS
- Select No then select Advanced Settings.
- Change the Primary DNS to 216.69.185.14 and the Secondary DNS to 173.201.71.14.
- Select Confirm and then Save, you will be told you must run a connection test. (Select No to the system update prompt)
If the connection test doesn't work try running it one more time and if it still fails leave a post about it. (Please make sure you have a working internet connection in the first place.)
- Back out to the Internet panel and choose User Agreements. Select Yes to the question about the Wii Shop Channel/WiiConnect24.
- You will be taken to a screen telling you to review the User Agreements for the Wii. Select Next.
If you see a pony on screen telling you to wait then you have done everything correctly. The exploit takes 1-2 minutes (1:25 is usually how long mine takes), if it takes longer than 2 minutes then it probably failed. Just turn off your Wii and start again from step 6.
After a minute or two you should be booted into the HackMii Installer. If the Wii freezes on a with a bunch of white text on it please take a LEGIBLE picture of the screen. I can't help you if I can't read it.

If you got some use out of this and want to throw @Fullmetal5 some money you can do so here. (His College is expensive, so is IDA)

Currently, to transfer files back and forth to your Nintendo Switch, you either have to remove/insert your MicroSD between your console and PC, or you have to enable WiFi and use an FTP server to transfer files, but now scene developer @ischeinkman has started working on NX-USB which allows to you access your Switch on your PC with just a simple handy-dandy USB cable connected between your Switch and PC, and bang you can start transferring files back & forth. NX-USB is composed of 2 parts: a "server" component that runs on the switch, called nxusb_server.nro, and a "client" component that runs each command on the computer.
Setup- Grab a copy of nxusb_server.nro. This can either be done by building it yourself, or just by downloading it from the Releases page.
- Make sure that you have gotten nxusb_server.nro on to your Switch somewhere where it can be ran from.
- Find a valid client, which at this point is only possible by downloading Rust and building it yourself via cargo build -p client. At the moment, the client executable is just called client, so that is what we will be using to refer to it here, but this may change in the future.
Running
- Connect the Switch to the computer via USB.
- Run nxusb_server.nro on the Switch.
- Use the client to transfer files between the computer and the switch:
- To "push" a file TO the Switch FROM the computer, use ./client --push [NEW PATH ON SWITCH] [EXISTING FILE ON COMPUTER].
- To "pull" a file FROM the Switch TO the computer, use ./client --pull [EXISTING FILE ON SWITCH] [NEW PATH ON COMPUTER]`

@SciresM has been a busy beaver documenting all the changes big 'N' made to their v6.2.0 TSEC Firmware, that is now in control of decryption, which basically has put a 'stop to the current-generation' of Custom Firmwares out there for your exploitable Switch console, but if you are one of lucky few that have been given the new set of 'master keys' and 'pk11' keys for v6.2.0 which were found with new undisclosed exploit, then you can place them in the 'atmosphere/prod.keys' file, and enjoy having the first v6.2.0 CFW! Pushed some 6.2.0 support code to atmosphere-master -- for now stuff requires you to bring your own keys externally, but if you do...
Click to expand...
Now with this update out on the official GITHub Project Page linked below, it means the battle is on, with whom will leak the 'keys' and whom will copy the work by @SciresM to produce a complete CFW package that does not need any external dumping tools or secrets!

The selling power of Pikachu and pals continues unabated as the launch of Pokémon Let's Go on Switch sets new records.
Combining the Pikachu and Eevee editions, more than three million copies of the latest monster-catching outing have been sold worldwide, according to the official Twitter feed.
The tweet also reported this is the best-selling first week for any Switch title since the console launched last year, placing Pokémon Let's Go ahead of best-sellers such as Super Mario Odyssey and launch title The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

Heres some Virtual Boy News:
Jorge and me are delighted to finally be able to announce that we have teamed up with Rubén Garcerá Soto earlier this year to revive his beautiful Virtual Boy homebrew game "Capitan Sevilla 2", which won 2nd prize in PVB Coding Competition 2010.
Under the new name "Capitan Sevilla 3D", we have been rebuilding the game from the ground up in VUEngine, based on the foundation of our Platformer Demo. Since the original game demo was 2D-only, we are remastering all the environments in 3D. So far, the first three (out of four) areas are done and fully playable from start to finish, as is everything else from Splash Screens to Introduction to Credits Screen, etc.
We'll release a demo once we converted all of the original content, probably early 2019, before moving on to extend it with new areas, improving animations, etc. However, a playable demo of the current state (as seen in the video below) will be made available for "Beta Tester" (and above) tier backers of our Patreon campaign today, in a separate post. You select few, please play the demo on a real Virtual Boy to experience it in all its stereoscopic glory! :-)

PypeBros have released a new version of their game for the Nintendo DS:
it has been almost one year since the last release of Bilou : School Rush. Through unpractical ideas, oversophistication and deep engine refactories, I finally get something to share with you. Here is maybe the penultimate release bringing 1-UPs and hi-score tables to School Rush.
Voici enfin une nouvelle release de School Rush. Je laisse donc tomber les options trop complexes pour me concentrer sur ce qui compte vraiment pour le jeu: les 1-UPs, le calcul du score (distance parcourue si on ne finit pas le jeu ou temps écoulé si on le termine).
So, compared to the previous builds,
you can get 1-UPs by collecting letters. Everytime you get one, the next one will be more "expensive", though.
every loading screen show how long it took you to get there and how far was that "there".
there is a "congratulations" level at the end of the 'secret, good ending'
there is a "game over" screen
in both case, a hiscore table will show up. You'll compete for the shortest time if you found the good exist, and for going as far as possible (in pixels) if you're game over.
no new levels this time. Core gameplay unchanged.
I do not have yet the code to let you enter your own name at the end of it though (that will likely be for the latest release). The purpose of this one is to ensure that the arbitrary scores mentioned as "special thanks" can be beaten. So you'll always be "Player One" and the pointing hand will not yet help you to see where you are.
J'ai un début de table des scores, aussi, mais pas encore la possibilité d'y enregistrer son nom. ça, ce sera pour la dernière release.
The times are shown as MINUTES:SECONDS:FRAMES, btw. I managed to get to the end in about 10'50", while losing 2 lives (which took me about 2 minutes). So beating KirbyKid will ask you at least deathless play through and beating Wintermute will almost certainly require to pull off some emergent gameplay and speedrunner skills... which isn't necessarily bad.
gameplay
You're controlling Bilou, a blue, ball-shaped explorer. You make him JUMP with the (A) button and grab things (or throw them) with (B). Your goal is to reach the right of each level before you're caught by the ever-raising ink.
You'll need to be quick, too. Use (R) or double-tap in left/right directions as if you were a pink, living vacuum cleaner.
You can stomp some monsters, you can throw sharpeners at others. Remember: the pencil soldats are the only real threat here, and they must be stopped from pouring even more ink for their autoritarist plans. Everything else that looks dangerous is mostly acting on fear and may prove very useful if you keep your head cold. Think about how useful a bobbing sponge could be if you could ride it (B). or how high an inkwell could shoot you ...
There are rumours of magical artifacts that could help you. The Fist of Justice, that noone can stand against (double-B) and the Floating Twister (hold A), that let you reach far away places. It's unlikely the pendats will let you recover them without a fight, though.
Story
At the far east of this school-like country, there is a gauge that will stop the ink. Rush for it! The books city is close to be destroyed once for all, and the elders' knowledge will be lost. This must be another plot from Square Root, who decided that mathematics are the only thing worth of being written down.
Everyone here seems to believe that Bilou is a sort of legendary hero...

Jayenkai has released a new version of the rather awesome looking retro type platform game, heres the release news:
Platdude's great adventure continues.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Platdude.
We join our adventurer as he roams around a series of dungeons and caverns and puzzling areas for absolutely no reason other than to gather up as many blue spheres as he can.
Why does he do it? Nobody's sure.
But gathering up all the spheres seems to unlock a door to yet another dungeon, cavern or otherwise puzzling area.
-=-=-
Editor
-=-=-
The editor is as fully formed as it's going to get.
If you'd like me to add a few more tile types, be sure to suggest them in the thread! I have space for another 16 or so tiles before I need to rework some of the game's formatting.
Once you've made a set of 4 levels in a single pack, head back to the menu and play through all 4 to earn the "All 4" icon for that level pack, to ensure the levels are completable.
If you'd then like to upload your levels, take the MyLevels.lev file from your SD card and upload it via this page.
-=-=-
Puzzle Platformer
-=-=-
Please be aware that JNKPlat is more Puzzle game than Platform game. There will be a few occasions when you consider things in the game to be "wrong", because you're expecting them to behave in the style of a Platform game.
JNKPlat is a Puzzle game first and foremost.
-=-=-
Two Button Jump
-=-=-
You can turn this off in the main menu. The toggle is on the top-left.
It is recommended to play JNKPlat with two jump buttons.
The game is .. Harder.. with only one jump button, and I haven't implemented everything properly due to it requiring more than a little guess-work as to what the player's actually trying to do.
Hopefully when you start playing the game, you'll understand that a little better.

Joel16 has updated his shell for the Nintendo Switch:
NX-Shell v1.05 - Initial Stable Release
This is a pretty important release. If you're updating this from an older version, it is recommended to delete your /switch/NX-Shell/ folder before you install this update. This is the last version where you'll have to do this. Future updates will automatically handle this.
Features:
Make use of the GPU hardware acceleration.
Switch to internal FS functions to display directory list.
Added config version to config files - If a new version is found where the config file needs to be changed, it will automatically be deleted and regenerated.
Replaced the executable icon with something more dark theme friendly.
Local time is now supported.
Displays file permissions in properties.
Display storage bar for current mounted device. (some devices/mount points don't have this)
Allow user to browse other user partitions from menu bar. (Very little can be done at this time, since it seems FS functions are locked out of using them).
Lock applet during write/cut/copy/delete processes.
Added a "More..." button in file options.
Added a "Refresh" button refresh directory list.
Added a "New file" button to create an empty file.
Added a button to set archive bit on checked directories or currently highlighted/selected directories. - This
feature is a work in progress. Don't use this with any important directories unless you know what you're
doing. This feature can only be accessed if "Developer options" is enabled.
Added a new options in Settings called "Developer options". If this toggle is set, any FS function that fails to execute properly will be logged in a file called debug.log, which can be found in /switch/NX-Shell/debug.log.
Wrap CWD display if it gets too long.
Improve book reader controls in landscape mode (Right stick right/left should zoom in/out in landscape mode)
Fixes:
Fix last saved directories not properly being read due to having spaces in their names.
Fix automatic scroll when selecting a checkbox.
Fix exit key (PLUS) in music player, image viewer and settings.
Book reader no longer displays status bar after every page. Only displayed during zooming or if screen is touched in the middle or outside touch area depending on the orientation.
Many under the hood changes.
If you'd like to support me, then feel free to buy me a coffee, I'd really appreciate it! https://www.paypal.me/Joel16IA

November 14th, 2018, 21:31 Posted By: wraggster
rsn8887 has released a new version of the port of the Amiga Emulator for the Nintendo Switch:
This is the Amiga emulator UAE4All2 v1.73. I ported this emulator to the Switch, based on my latest Vita version. I had to adjust the code from 32bit to 64bit. The Switch is faster than the Vita, for example Jim Power plays without slow-down.
Changes in this Version
======
1.74 (Switch only)
Allow remapping of ZR/ZL on Switch
Map ZR/ZL to "slow-down mouse" on Switch if custom controls are off
Add option to misc menu to choose either A or B as OK button on Switch
Add sharp-bilinear-simple scaling routine, and make it the new default
Add point filtering scaling routine
1.73 (Switch only)
- Fix savestates on Switch
Description
=====
Use4All2 Mod is an Amiga emulator for Vita and Switch. This is my mod of this great Amiga emulator that was originally ported to the Vita by Cpasjuste. Depending on when you read this, this mod might be ahead or behind his version.
Thanks to Cpasjuste for the original port and for jumping in and adding shader support and making the assembler optimizations work.
Thanks to ScHlAuChi for extensive testing, ideas, and for contributing the new larger virtual keyboard images.
Thanks to the original authors Chui, john4p, TomB, notaz, Bernd Schneider, Toni Wilen, Pickle, smoku, AnotherGuest, Anonymous engineer, finkel, Lubomyr, pelya and many more.
Thanks to my supporters on Patreon: Andyways, CountDuckula, Matthew Machnee, and Sean Ritzo.
Installation
======
* Vita:
* Install .vpk
* Obtain and copy BIOS files "kick13.rom", "kick20.rom" and "kick31.rom" to "ux0:/data/uae4all/kickstarts"
* Switch:
* Download and unzip `uae4all2_switch.zip`
* Copy the resulting folder `uae4all2` to `/switch/` onto your SDCard, ensure none of the "archive" flags is set.
* You should now have the executable `/switch/uae4all2/uae4all2.nro` and a folder `/switch/uae4all2/data/` with the keyboard icons and other data files on your SDCard.
* Obtain and copy BIOS files `kick13.rom` (size: 262,144 bytes), `kick20.rom` (size: 524,288 bytes) and `kick31.rom` (size: 524,288 bytes) to your SDCard into `/switch/uae4all2/kickstarts/`
* Use your favorite Homebrew Launcher or Homebrew Loader to start Uaeall2
Vita/Switch-exclusive Features
======
- Full speed emulation of most Amiga games with zero frameskip
- Large, complete virtual keyboard with adjustable position and adjustable transparency
- Three fully mappable custom control sets: map Vita buttons to any Amiga joystick or key input, three custom control sets supported
- Multiple hard-file support: up to 4 hdf files (size <2GB each) can be mounted simultaneously
- Multiple controller support on Vita TV: up to four paired controllers can be fully mapped
- Analog mouse control: control the mouse using the analog stick with adjustable sensitivity
- Custom autofire: any mapped Vita button can have autofire with adjustable rate
- Savestate with hard-file support: state can be saved even when hard-files are used
- Additional emulator settings: sprite-sprite collisions can be enabled, blitter settings can be changed
- Adjustable stereo separation
- A button can be mapped to "slow mouse" in custom controls. When custom controls are on and that button is held down, the mouse pointer speed is greatly reduced. This is useful for precisely positioning the cursor.
- Sticky virtual keyboard modifiers: allows keyboard combos like CTRL-C to be entered easily
- Touchpad style pointer controls using the touchscreen
- Parallel port joystick adapter support for multiplayer games with up to 4 joysticks.
- Additional savestate slot called auto, for automatic savestate loading
Vita-exclusive Features
======
- Shader support: default "sharp_bilinear_simple" uses integer pre-scale for sharp, undistorted pixels with minimum blur, even if game is zoomed to fill the full Vita screen.
- Bluetooth keyboard and mouse support
- Supports loading files from ux0: or uma0: partition
- Rear touch panel can be enabled for mouse pointer control
Switch-exclusive Features
======
- On the Switch, there's no shader support yet. But the Switch resolution is high enough for perfect integer scaling with factor 3x if displayed lines is not larger than 240 and width is not larger than 426. Filtering can be set to "Bilinear" or "None". When "Bilinear" is selected, the screen is scaled to fill the Vita display, keeping aspect ratio. No black bars on top and bottom appear. The image can be quickly zoomed using "R+Start+left/right" and vertically adjusted using "R+Start+up/down" to center it. When "None" is selected, only a perfect integer scaling is applied. Depending on the chosen Amiga screenmode, the integer scaling will be a 1x, 2x, 3x, or in principle even 4x, depending on whether the scaled Amiga screen fits. In most cases, this results in black bars on top and bottom as well as left and right.
Notes
======
- *Bios:* Please put kickstart files in `ux0:/data/uae4all/kickstarts` on Vita and in `/switch/uae4all2/kickstarts` directory on Switch. Files must be named as kick13.rom, kick20.rom, kick31.rom
- *Speed:* Most games run full speed. Some slow Amiga 1200 and WHDLoad games actually run faster if the CPU speed is reduced from 14 MHz to 7 MHz, because they rely more on custom chips than CPU. Some graphics glitches in Lionheart WHDLoad inside the caves are fixed by this.
- *Config File:* If you have problems with settings not saving etc, please delete or rename your config file in the folder `ux0:/data/uae4all` (Vita) or `/switch/uae4all2/conf/` and restart the emu. I heard this can fix many problems when you are replacing an older version of this emulator with a newer version. Lots of things are changing in the config file between releases.
- *Display on Vita:* On the Vita, the sharp_bilinear_simple shader, on by default, creates a sharp pixel image with minimal blurring. It applies a maximum integer pre-scale first. Then it scales only the small remainder using the builtin bilinear filter, keeping the aspect ratio intact.
- *Display on Switch:* On Switch, there is no shader support yet. But the 720p resolution on Switch allows 3* integer scaling as long as the displayed lines are <=240 and width is <426. This can be selected in the display menu under `shader`. There are two settings: `None (perfect integer scaling)` with black bars on top and bottom, or `bilinear (a little blurry)`, without black bars on top and bottom.
- *Screen settings:* Many Amiga games fit the screen very nicely. For example, take Chaos Engine with a screen setting of 320*200 and sharp_bilinear_simple shader enabled (or bilinear on Switch). The picture can be zoomed using R+Start+Dpad left/right, and moved vertically using R+Start+Dpad up/down to center it on the screen. Once this is done, the picture fills almost the whole screen and looks amazing with no artifacts and, on Vita, almost no blurriness. The game runs smooth with zero frameskip.
Selecting a 'Preset Width' of 320, 352 or 384 (max overscan) results in lo-res screen emulation, good for most games, while 640, 704, or 768 results in hi-res screen emulation, good for use with Workbench or some text-based games.
- *Blitter:* The blitter settings can help with graphics glitches in some games. Since it seems to work best, "immediate" is the default. But some games require setting blitter to "normal" and re-booting to remove graphics glitches, for example PP Hammer, Spindizzy Worlds, and Shufflepuck Cafe.
- *WHDLoad:* If you have problems with a WHDLoad .hdf game, maybe try an .adf version of the same game. Rock'n Roll is one of a few games that work on UAE4All2 only using .adf files. It has graphics glitches and runs too fast in WHDLoad with .hdf. To make it work correctly, I loaded the "Rock'n Roll.adf" from Gamebase Amiga, chose the preset A500 config, and changed the Blitter setting to Normal.
- *Sprite Collisions:* Some games require sprite-to-sprite collisions. Sprite collisions can be turned on in the "more options" menu. The only game I know of that requires this is SpaceTaxi 3.
- *Savestates:* Four regular savestates can be saved per game. There's also a slot for an automatic savestate, labeled "auto". If it exists, this will be loaded immediately when the .adf is inserted. To prevent this, delete the auto savestate by selecting it and choosing "delete savestate".
- *Multiplayer:* Up to four controllers on Vita TV are supported and can be fully mapped. The mouse can be switched off because it interferes with the other joystick that controls player 2 in most games. If you pair new controllers and they do not seem to work, scan for them in the "custom controls" menu by pressing L. At the bottom it will say how many controllers have been found. By default, parallel port Amiga joysticks 3 and 4 are controlled by VitaTV gamepads 3 and 4. They can also be mapped to other inputs using the custom controls screen.
- *Sound:* For use with headphones, a stereo separation setting of 50 sounds better than the default setting of 100. The original Amiga had completely disjoint left/right channels. This can sound quite jarring on headphones. Concerning sound frequency, on the Vita, the default of 44.1 kHz gives by far the best results. On the Switch, the best sound is obtained with 48 kHz, which is the only frequency supported on Switch.
