fgsfds has ported NXquake to the Nintendo Switch:

Running

Place the NRO into /switch/nxquake/ on your SD card.

If you only have the shareware version of Quake, copy pak0.pak to /switch/nxquake/id1/. If you have the full version, copy both pak0.pak and pak1.pak to /switch/nxquake/id1/.

If you want to play Scourge of Armagon, copy pak0.pak from hipnotic to /switch/nxquake/hipnotic/. If you want to play Dissolution of Eternity, copy pak0.pak from rogue to /switch/nxquake/rogue/.

Make sure the pak files and the id1 directory have all-lowercase names, just in case.

You can run NXQuake using Homebrew Launcher.

If it crashes, look for console.log and error.log in /switch/nxquake/.

Mission Packs and mods are supported. If you have more game folders than just id1 in /switch/nxquake/, a mod select menu will pop up when you launch NXQuake.

[SWITCH] Checkpoint v3.4.2

September 5th, 2018, 21:24 Posted By: wraggster

Bernardo Giordano has released a new version of the savegame manager for the Nintendo Switch

Switch: What's new

Fix compatibility with certain games and CFWs. Now Checkpoint is fully compatible with custom firmwares using fs_mitm, layeredfs and other modules massively relying on file operations.
Confirmed working on both hekate, Atmosphere and ReiNX using said modules.
Other CFWs may be compatible as well, even if not directly tested.
The issue was caused by a poorly optimized function to recursively delete folders, which has been now replaced by the one available on JKSV, too.
Fixed configuration override after updating Checkpoint version.
Avoid using a separate thread to populate titles.
Default selected button for the homebrew keyboard is now OK (thanks @fennectech).

September 4th, 2018, 21:31 Posted By: wraggster

Heres a surprise release:

• You thought the Nintendo Switch was supposed to get its 6.0.0 update today, but it looks like the Nintendo Wii U did instead. The retired console got a new firmware revision, the first since July 2017. By now, you should know the drill; this is a stability update. Chances are, Nintendo is trying to prevent any further exploits, and only time will tell if they were successful.
  

  Improvements to system stability and usability:

Nintendo Switch nears 5m sales in Japan

September 4th, 2018, 21:25 Posted By: wraggster

Just shows that Nintendo are back on form with the Nintendo Switch:

By the end of this week, Nintendo Switch is expected to have reach five million sales in its home market since it launched last year.
Nintendo Life reports that the latest sales figure for the Japanese games market, as published by Famitsu, show the console-handheld hybrid has now shifted 4.966 million units to date and with its current pace of sales, that five million milestone should only take a few days to achieve.
It brings Switch's lifetime sales closer to that of PlayStation 4, which currently stands at 6.979 million units - just two million units ahead. It's a fine achievement for the Nintendo device given that Sony's console has been on the market three years longer, although it has a long way to go if it wants to beat PS4's global sales of more than 82.2 million units.
The updated lifetime sales followed Famistu's report for August, which was the sixth month in a row that Nintendo Switch has been Japan's biggest-selling console. The device sold 199,000 over the course of the month, compared to PlayStation 4's 86,000.

higan v106r60

September 3rd, 2018, 21:49 Posted By: wraggster

higan v106r60 is released. higan (formerly bsnes) is a Nintendo multi-system emulator that began development on 2004-10-14. It currently supports the following systems:
- Famicom
- Super Famicom
- Game Boy
- Game Boy Color
- Game Boy Advance

higan also supports the following subsystems:
- Super Game Boy
- BS-X Satellaview
- Sufami Turbo

higan Changelog：
* Update to v106r60 release.

byuu says:

I added (imperfect) memory conflict timing to the SA1.

Before:

- WRAM↔↔ROM ran 7% too fast
- ROM↔↔ROM ran 100% too fast
- WRAM↔↔IRAM ran 7% too fast
- ROM↔↔IRAM ran 7% too fast
- IRAM↔↔IRAM ran 287% too fast
- BWRAM↔↔BWRAM ran 100% too fast
- HDMA ROM↔↔ROM ran 15% too fast
- HDMA WRAM↔↔ROM ran 15% too fast
- DMA ROM↔↔ROM ran 100% too fast

After:

- ROM↔↔ROM runs 14% too fast
- HDMA WRAM↔↔ROM runs 7% too fast
- DMA ROM↔↔ROM runs 4% too fast

If you enable this with the fast PPU + DSP, your framerate in SA1 games
will drop by 51%. And even if you disable it, you'll still lose 9% speed
in SA1 games, and 2% speed in non-SA1 games, because of changes needed
to make this support possible.

By default, I'm leaving this off. Compile with `-DACCURATE_SA1` (or
uncomment the line in sfc/sfc.hpp) if you want to try it out.

This'll almost certainly cause some SA1 regressions, so I guess we'll
tackle those as they arise.

Nintendo Switch leaked 6.0 firmware: here’s what hackers found so far

September 3rd, 2018, 21:46 Posted By: wraggster

Upcoming Nintendo Switch 6.0 was leaked online, and several Switch hackers have had access to it already.
Hacker Hexkyz has shared a pretty good summary of what’s been found in the leaked firmware, besides what mainstream sites have been reporting.
[h=2]Nintendo Switch Firmware 6.0 updates, from a security perspective[/h]From the hacker’s tweets:
What changed:

• New fuse and keyblob index (means new keys)
• New sysmodule “olsc” for the SaveData cloud backup feature
• More telemetry: new error report entries for tracking PCIE devices and connection test URL redirection
• Introduced the concept of “elicenses” in NIM (paid online);
• New domain for online error collection (“dragons”);
• Small Mariko related changes (e.g.: max77812_dram is a thing now).Hexkyz adds:
  The rumors of this being a “homebrew breaking update” were obviously false and there are no traces of an active NSP/XCI detection system. Additionally, the GameCard firmware was not updated either (no cart3 or w/e). Nonetheless, caution is advised for those wishing to update!
  
  Mainstream media have reported on lots of upcoming features based on the leaked firmware, many of which have been confirmed by Switch hackers. This includes new icons on the device which might indicate, according to a few sites, that the Nintendo Switch will not support more controllers including those of the SNES and NES Mini. Multiple sites also report that a paid online service will appear in 6.0, as well as a “Cloud” option will now be available for people to backup their saved games. Hexkyz has confirmed that such details (additional icons, savedata backup, paid online) were found in the firmware.

Team-Xecuter Announces SX OS v1.8 with improved Switch Firmware v6.0 compatibility

September 3rd, 2018, 21:40 Posted By: wraggster

• Team-Xecuter is back again with an update to their SX OS and now with v1.8, they continue to rock the scene world yet again!
  
  ​

  
  
  By making sure their SX OS is 'future-proof' and with their own 'system stability' based on 'user feedback', in that it now handles all the new curve-balls that Nintendo will be throwing at you in the coming days with the new v6.0 firmware for the Switch, which of course as usual adds Nintendo's brand of 'system stability' (closing exploits), but with TX at the plate, you will always score a homerun, allowing you to fully enjoy the ease of usage in playing your XCI or NSP 'backups' on the very latest of Switch firmwares.

Nintendo Switch firmware 6.0 leaked and confirmed, Sept 3 release likely

August 31st, 2018, 22:31 Posted By: wraggster

• Earlier this year, back in March, we saw the release of a brand new 5.0.0 firmware update for the Nintendo Switch. It was an overall minor update, giving users better control over their parental controls, changing the way the news app entries were filtered, and a handful of new avatars. Now, we're almost to September, and a new milestone firmware is on the horizon. A 6.0.0 update has been leaked by the CDN, and some of its contents were datamined. The update file itself currently lurks in the darker parts of the web, if one dares to hunt it out. It's not advised that you try to mess with that, however.
  
  While the full details of the update are not currently clear, hackers have datamined the update with fairly interesting results. Like the last update, there's new avatars, this time focusing on Captain Toad. There's 2 Toad avatars, 2 Toadette, 1 Draggadon, and 1 Wingo that have been added.
  
  
  

• This is also an update that prepares for the imminent launch of the Nintendo Online Services, with a new slogan on the eShop being written as "More Games, More Features, More Fun". Cloud save data backups have been added, too, and will happen automatically if you put your system into sleep mode. Supposedly, measures have also been put in place through telemetry in order to have a higher rate of detection on those who use exploits and CFW. There may also be a new master key.
  
  Furthermore, a large banner of controller icons were datamined, with NES and SNES controllers. What their purpose is has not been identified yet. Theories range from it bringing new controller type support, or icons for the new NES and SNES games that will be offered with the online service. A release of potentially Monday next week, September 3 has been cited as the most likely time that the update will drop. Regardless of when the update hits, a news post covering the official release and its details will be posted, so stay tuned.
  
  

  • As always, if you value keeping your system primed for homebrew, you'll want to refrain from updating before a full breakdown is available. Are you wary of this update? Excited? Shocked that it's not just stability patches? What do you think of the new 6.0.0 update?

RELEASE: FastBoot 3DS v1.1 (Stable)
