Nintendo and Tencent have finally revealed the launch details for Switch's long-awaited debut in China.
The console will be officially released in mainland China on Tuesday, December 10th, Seeking Alpha reports. It will be made available in retail stores, as well as through major online companies such as TMall and JD.com.
The Chinese Switch will be priced at 2,099 yuan (approximately $300) and will come with a demo of New Super Mario Bros U Delxue, as well as a one-year warranty.
Niko Partners analyst Daniel Ahmad shared more details from the official news briefing via his Twitter.
There are at least 18 third-party titles currently being localised for the Chinese market, after which they will be submitted for approval. This range includes Just Dance, Hollow Knight, Mario + Rabbids, Octopath Traveler, Tools Up, Mario & Sonic at the Toyko 2020 Olympic Games, Daemon X Machina and an exclusive Rabbids Party game.
Several other developers are working on official versions of their games to be localised and approved for China, including Bandai Namco, Sega, Konami, Square Enix, Level-5 and Tencent's own internal developer Next Games.

For many years, the FlashBoy series of flash carts has been a great way for people to play Virtual Boy homebrew on real hardware, as well as hacks, translations or simply the few super rare games which the average fan could never get their hands on otherwise.
Obviously, the discontinuation of the FlashBoy Plus earlier this year left a big hole. And, being the huge undertaking that it is, Kevin Mellott's upcoming MultiBoy32 multi cart is still rather far away on the horizon. So, aside from second hand units or a sometimes shady repro market, there currently is simply no way for Virtual Boy fans to enjoy homebrew on the real hardware. Let's face it - emulation can only get that close but never be as good as the real thing.
Luckily, to fill the gap, Kevin Mellott has recently announced the HyperFlash32, a new one-game-at-a-time flash cart with 32 MBit of flash memory. Apart from a single VUEngine video player demo, which is 128 MBit in size, that is enough space to hold everything the Virtual Boy#s library has to offer, even the largest homebrew game for the system, the infamous Hyper Fighting.
While sounding like just a bigger capacity FlashBoy replacement at first, new details shared by Kevin demonstrate that the HyperFlash32 is much more than that, in an impressive way. Here's a quick overview of what the flash cart will have to offer, as of the current state of development:
- 32 MBit flash memory, holds one game at a time
- 32k x 8 nvSRAM, no save battery required
- SRAM contents can be dumped to/read from SD card
- PC connection via USB
- Fully custom, a bit longer than usual, cart shell incomporating an ingenious triple-layer PCB design
- E ink display shows label of currently loaded game, possibly multi-color
- Three capacitive buttons built into the cart shell allow for flashing games from an SD card, without the need for a PC

And, after the 3DS got its recent system update, this time it looks like it's the Switch's turn. Firmware 9.1.0 has been released by Nintendo for all regions and the changelog states it's meant to fix an issue with the colour animation not showing correctly when attaching a Joy-Con to the console... alongside with the usual stability. However, there may also be something else under the hood, as @SciresM has warned that TrustZone might have received an undocumented change, so current CFWs may break if you install the update.
Ver. 9.1.0 (Released December 4, 2019)
General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience, including a solution for the following:
- Resolved an issue where the color animation was not displaying correctly when attaching a Joy-Con controller to the Nintendo Switch console.
Needless to say, given those premises, it may be best to avoid updating for the moment if you're running a CFW or if you wish to mod your console. Not much else is known at the time of writing - this post will be updated with any useful hacking and homebrew-related info.

The 3DS has received a new update and, shockingly enough, the changelog doesn't mention stability for once! Firmware 11.13.0-45 has been released in all regions for both New and Old consoles and it is aimed towards fixing a bug with the system's StreetPass functionality. Sure enough, initial reports show that the only updated sysmodules are StreetPass, friends and Web browser data, alongside your usual NVer/CVer changes. The official release notes can be read below:
Ver. 11.13.0-45U (December 2nd, 2019)
- Resolved an issue where StreetPass would not work in some cases.
Click to expand...
Not much else is known at the time and consoles that have already been hacked via boot9strap should be able to update just fine but, as usual, you may want to refrain from installing the new firmware version until someone else gives the all clear - especially if you own a stock console that you wish to mod. This post will be kept up-to-date with any other useful hacking & homebrew related info.

@XorTroll has just released the first major update for his Switch HOME menu reimplementation, uLaunch! Version 0.2 introduces a brand new feature called Quick Menu, which allows for easy and immediate access to various functions & sub-menus without using the touch screen, and can be brought up anytime by pressing (Z)L,(Z)R or the analog sticks. Two new applets (album and controller settings) as well as a power menu have been added to uLaunch, all of which can be accessed from the aforementioned Quick Menu. Many new entries are now available in the settings, including several toggles for the Switch's hardware and software features (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, etc) and console-specific info (Serial Number & MAC Address).
Last, but not least, a new PC companion application, uViewer, has also been released! This app works both as a replacement for the previously released QForegroundViewer, as it incorporates all of its screen streaming functionalities in itself, and also includes an entry creator, thus allowing you to easily make your own custom entries for uLaunch. An uViewer DLL plugin for RetroArch is also available, which can be useful if you wish to create ROM forwarders.
As usual, the official changelog can be read below:
Quoted from uLaunch 0.2 Changelog: - Main menu
- Added a new way to open menus without touchscreen: presenting the quick menu! Just hold L/R-stick, then move it while being held to select a menu, leave the stick and profit!
- Changed the web browser touchable menu item with the controller applet one, for what it's worth.
- Settings menu
- New settings were added:
- Console information upload (enable/disable)
- Automatic titles' download (e/d)
- Console auto-update (e/d)
- Bluetooth (e/d)
- 3.0 USB (e/d)
- NFC (e/d)
- Wireless LAN (e/d)
- MAC address
- Serial number
- Added controller menu applet (as a menu touchable icon, as mentioned above) support to change/manage players and controllers!
- Added album applet (as part of the aforementioned quick menu) support to view your captures!
- Added a power menu (as part of the aforementioned quick menu) to quickly power off, reboot or sleep the console!
- QForegroundViewer has been refactored into a major application: uViewer!
- New entry creator menu (custom entry creator to be accessible from main menu), customizable with plugins!
- This includes a custom RetroArch-themed DLL plugin, easily loadable by uViewer, to make ROM forwarding really easy!
- Added a new way to open menus without touchscreen: presenting the quick menu! Just hold L/R-stick, then move it while being held to select a menu, leave the stick and profit!
- General
- Custom icons in entry JSONs can now be used with normal titles too, not just homebrew.
- Custom name/author/version texts in entries are no longer restricted to 511/15 characters.
- Certain parts of the code/functionality were slightly improved (speed might be slightly faster in certain laggy moments)
Have fun with a brand new HOME menu!

The Switch is having an extraordinary year, with Nintendo's console and its software line-up cleaning up in pretty much every market. Switch Lite seems to be quietly racking up additive sales without cannibalising those of its older (and more expensive) stablemate, while games like Pokémon Sword and Shield are giving the platform a pretty amazing run at a Christmas season from which the other console platform holders have largely absented themselves.
Last year, Nintendo got a little over-enthusiastic in its full year projections for Switch and had to revise its figures down slightly. Now the pendulum has swung, and it seems almost certain that its current targets are a significant underestimation of the bumper year it's actually having.
Unsurprisingly, that's all been having a positive effect on Nintendo's share price, which after an undeservedly rough 2018 is up around 47% so far this year. It's not just about Switch, though; the company's mobile game strategy seems to be settling into something profitable and sustainable -- though not quite the cash-printing machine that some investors had rashly hoped for -- and there have been positive moves to expand and capitalise upon its IP by opening Nintendo stores in prime locations, loosening its grip to permit popular adaptations like this year's Detective Pikachu movie, and prepping the much-anticipated Nintendo theme park in Osaka to open in time for next year's Olympics tourist boom.

The modding community's favourite greek goddesses are ready to bless your Switch once more. Hekate v5.1.0 is out now and it features full FW 9.1.0 compatibility - but that's just the tip of the iceberg! Many improvements have been made under the hood, such as quicker boot times, support for Android fastboot, low battery shutdown and a bunch of other miscellaneous fixes. Nyx received several enhancements too: eMMC verification is even faster than before, GFX-related functions got speedier as well and the console's fan will now start spinning if the temperature gets too high (because no one likes an overheating system!).
Before you upgrade, however, here is a quick (but important!) warning: you must overwrite the bootloader directory on your SD card with the one found in the release's ZIP before launching Hekate 5.1.0, just swapping the RCM .bin payload is not enough this time around. You will very likely encounter issues if you choose not to do so, as some of Hekate's dependencies received mandatory critical updates. Finally, the bootloader will now skip patches_template.ini and only look for patches.ini instead to avoid user confusion, plus, empty patches are no longer allowed because they were never needed in the first place. Still, you will be unaffected by this last change if you've set up the aforementioned INI files correctly before.
If you want to learn more about a specific feature or read all the fixes included in this update, check out the full changelog below:
Quoted from changelog: This version supports booting ALL current OS/CS CFW, Linux chainloading and payload tools.
No more SD card removals
Latest HOS supported: 9.1.0
New in this version
- Full support for 9.1.0
- Faster and better DRAM training
This performance change affects both hekate and Nyx.
libsys_minerva.bso was updated and the update is mandatory.
If you notice slow performance in hekate or Nyx, you forgot to drag n drop the bootloader folder from release.
- Even faster HOS boot
Because of the aforementioned change, HOS now boots even faster.
- Enabled Low Battery Shutdown when voltage is less than 2.8V
This will help with many users that kill their battery by forgetting their devices into RCM/AutoRCM.
- Fixed an issue with some users hanging in black screen or logo for Nyx loading
This is unrelated with HOS boot issues.
- Fixed a critical issue with heap collapsing on edge cases. Thanks @shchmue.
Additionally, heap management became more robust and fragments way less often.
- Added support for entering fastboot on Android.
This requires of pressing VOL+ first and while holding it, also start holding VOL-.
- External patches only look for patches.ini now
The reason is that patches_template.ini is now useless and no one should install homebrew when title replacement exists.
Also because apparently it confuses users into thinking that it takes precedence over patches.ini, even though it explained countless of times that it's only loaded if patches.ini is not found.
Lastly there's a confusion where users thought that empty patches is not the same with no patches, even though it's exactly the same. So now any empty patch will throw an error.
To sum up, removed to simplify the process because of user errors.
- Fixed an issue with force shutdown timeout, where it would power off if PWR button was pressed for 2s. It's now back to 6s.
- Fixed instant boot to menu ("bootloop") on errors. Now hekate will properly wait for user input in order to go back to menu.
- Fixed an issue with tsec keys, where KFUSE didn't have enough time to initialize.
- Fixed an issue where double defined patches (like NOGC), would fail the process. Now any reapplied patch, will be properly marked as applied.
- Countless refactors and bugfixes in hw init and drivers
- Many general bugfixes
New in emuMMC
The binary is based on m4xw/emuMMC@bd81a67
Nyx v0.8.3
- 9.1.0 support for info and tools
- GFX rendering and generally many functions in Nyx are now faster
- Refactored SHA calculation for faster verification
Verification is now able to calculate the 1st buffer SHA while the 2nd buffer is read.
- Fan is now activated if temperatures are high
- Battery Voltage value is now Orange if lower than 3200mV
- Countless refactors and bugfixes in hw init and drivers
- Many general bugfixes
Check readme.md for more.
Lastly, keep an eye for the big Nyx update!
NOTE: You will need sept and a custom secmon and warmboot binary to boot 7.0.0-9.0.1 or stock emuMMC.
Warning: HOS 9.1.0 needs a new sept. If not updated, hekate will show pkg2 decryption error. On the other hand, hekate can still load older sept versions for 9.0.X.
Warning2: New bootloader contents are mandatory. Because they are new, you must not mix them with older hekate versions. hekate package is made for an easy drag n drop that can be used to replace the files.

Yep, it's that time of the year again, and I'm not referring to the holiday season: @SciresM and ReSwitched's Atmosphère CFW has received yet another update! Version 0.10.0 can now be grabbed from the project's official repo and it features a pretty hefty changelog. However, before we proceed with the highlights, there is a quick disclaimer that needs to be made: this version is currently marked as a pre-release and, while the build will transition to a stable release after enough time has passed without bug reports, you may encounter issues and other unexpected behaviours. If any bugs will be discovered during the aforementioned testing period, the devs will try to look for a fix and update the binaries whenever needed - so be sure to check the repo periodically if something doesn't seem to work as it should.
With that out of the way, let's start with a feature most of you likely expected: Atmosphère is now compatible with the Switch's latest firmware, aka 9.1.0. So, whether your console got accidentally updated or you always like to stay on the newest possible OFW, you've now got your back covered! But it doesn't end there, as the Stratosphère refactor that had been started way back in version 0.9.2 has now been completed, bringing benefits both to devs and users alike: on one hand, libstratosphere's new IPC-related code is faster and easier to manage, and on the other, the CFW as a whole uses much less system memory to run, allowing you to load a higher number of sysmodules at the same time! Also, Atmosphère's configuration system has received some changes, as it now includes in code its default values, thus no longer requiring config files if you wish to use the built-in settings. This completely removes the need to bundle any default config files in the releases' ZIP archives, so you no longer have to worry about updates overwriting your own custom settings! Speaking of which, HBL override keys have been improved too, as you can now specify different keys (and states) for programs and apps. The default override keys have also changed - applications will only be overridden with HBL if R is held, while the same will happen with the album applet if R is not held.
A few paths have been moved around in 0.10.0 as well. The process override directory (used, for example, for LayeredFS mods amongst other things) has changed from /atmosphere/titles/ to /atmosphere/contents/. However, you do not need to touch anything yourself, as the CFW will scan for the old directory and rename it for you if found. On the other hand, Atmosphère now expects all config files to be in /atmosphere/config/ - as stated before, you don't need any config files if you're okay with the default settings, but you will need to move them over if that's not the case (plus, loader.ini has been renamed to override_config.ini).
Finally, it has also been announced that the temporary HID mitm sysmodule introduced in v0.9.4 will be removed in the CFW's next point release (0.10.1). This will further free memory available to custom sysmodules and let you mitm HID without issues, but it will also break homebrew that had been compiled with old libnx versions due to internal changes with OFW >= 9.0.0. Make sure that whichever homebrew you use has been updated to avoid any future issues!
There's much, much more in this release, like increasing the default amount of memory reserved to applets, allowing homebrew access to the PMU registers and a ton of bug fixes! Here is the full changelog:
Quoted from changelog: 0.10.0 is Atmosphère's twenty-third official release.
fusee-primary was last updated in: 0.10.0.
With thanks to the @switchbrew team, Atmosphère 0.10.0 is bundled with hbl 2.2, and hbmenu 3.1.1.
- Please note: Atmosphère 0.10.0 is currently in pre-release.
- If any bugs are reported while Atmosphère is in pre-release, they will be fixed and the build will be updated.
- 0.10.0 will transition to release after a short amount of time has passed without pressing bug reports.
The following was changed since the last release:
- Support was added for 9.1.0
- Please note: The temporary hid-mitm added in Atmosphere 0.9.x will be removed in Atmosphere 0.10.1.
- Please ensure your homebrew is updated.
- The Stratosphere rewrite was completed.
- libstratosphere was rewritten as part of Stratosphere's refactor.
- Code responsible for providing and managing IPC services was greatly improved.
- The new code is significantly more accurate (it is bug-for-bug compatible with Nintendo's code), and significantly faster.
- ams.mitm was rewritten as part of Stratosphere's refactor.
- Saves redirected to the SD card are now separated for sysmmc vs emummc.
- Please note: If you find any bugs, please report them so they can be fixed.
- Thanks to the rewrite, Atmosphere now uses significantly less memory.
- Roughly 10 additional megabytes are now available for custom system modules to use.
- This means you can potentially run more custom system modules simultaneously.
- If system modules are incompatible, please ask their authors to reduce their memory footprints.
- Atmosphere's configuration layout has had major changes.
- Configuration now lives inside /atmosphere/config/.
- Atmosphere code now knows what default values should be, and includes them in code.
- It is no longer an error if configuration inis are not present.
- Correspondingly, Atmosphere no longer distributes default configuration inis.
- Templates are provided in /atmosphere/config_templates.
- loader.ini was renamed to override_config.ini.
- This fixes the longstanding problem that atmosphere updates overwrote user configuration when extracted.
- Atmosphere's process override layout was changed.
- Atmosphere now uses the /atmosphere/contents directory, instead of /atmosphere/titles.
- This goes along with a refactoring to remove all reference to "title id" from code, as Nintendo does not use the term.
- To make this transition easier, a temporary functionality has been added that migrates folders to the new directory.
- When booting into 0.10.0, Atmosphere will rename /atmosphere/titles/<program id> to /atmosphere/contents/<program id>.
- This functionality may or may not be removed in some future update.
- This should solve any transition difficulties for the typical user.
- Please make sure that any future mods you install extract to the correct directory.
- Support for configuring override keys for hbl was improved.
- The key used to override applications versus a specific program can now be different.
- The key to override a specific program can be managed via override_key.
- The key to override any app can be managed via override_any_app_key.
- Default override behavior was changed.
- By default, atmosphere will now override the album applet with hbl unless R is held.
- By default, atmosphere will now override any application with hbl only if R is held.
- The default amount of applet memory reserved has been slightly increased.
- This allows the profile selector applet to work by default in applet mode.
- The way process override status is captured was changed.
- Process override keys are now captured exactly once, when the process is created.
- This fixes the longstanding issue where letting go of the override button partway into the process launch could cause problems.
- The Mitm API was changed to pass around override status.
- Mitm services now know what keys were held when the client was created, as well as whether the client is HBL/should override contents.
- An extension was added to pm:info to allow querying a process's override status.
- Thanks to process override capture improvements, hbl html behavior has been greatly improved.
- Web applets launched by hbl will now always see the /atmosphere/hbl_html filesystem
- Support was added to exosphere for enabling usermode access to the PMU registers.
- This can be controlled via exosphere!enable_user_pmu_access in BCT.ini.
- An enormous number of minor bugs were fixed.
- dmnt's cheat VM had a fix for an inversion in opcode behavior.
- An issue was fixed in fs.mitm's management of domain object IDs that could lead to system corruption in rare cases.
- The Mitm API no longer silently fails when attempting to handle commands passing C descriptors.
- On previous atmosphere versions, certain commands to FS would silently fail due to this...
- No users reported any visible errors, but it was definitely a problem behind the scenes.
- These commands are now handled correctly.
- Atmosphere can now display a fatal error screen significantly earlier in the boot process, if things go wrong early on.
- The temporary hid mitm will no longer sometimes cause games to fail to detect input.
- Mitm Domain object ID management no longer desynchronizes from the host process.
- An issue was fixed that could cause service acquisition to hang forever if certain sm commands were called in a precise order.
- An off-by-one was fixed that could cause memory corruption in server memory management.
- ... and too many more bugs fixed to reasonably list them all
- General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience.
For information on the featureset supported by 0.10.0, please see the official release notes.

Never say the impossible, can not be done, as it seems, you can now play your SNES cartridges on your Switch! We released Classic 2 Magic Reader Package a couple of months ago. This will allow you to run your SNES cartridges on any system that supports USB.
Today a user sent us a great application out of this package with an installer for the Nintendo Switch. Yes, you can now play your original SNES cartridges directly on your Nintendo Switch with Classic 2 Magic!
The only requirement is that your Nintendo Switch has Team Xecuter's SX OS installed (for USB support). Simply unzip the installer in the root of your SD card, insert your game cartridge into Classic 2 Magic port and here you go. Your game will launch in seconds.
Hours of retro gaming for your Nintendo Switch and the ultimate wow effect for your geeky friends!

In the bygone year of 2014, GBAtemp received an SD2SNES, perhaps the hottest SNES flashcard of its time, for review. Five years later, I sit here with its big brother, the SD2SNES Pro, to bring you an up to date look at what's new, what's the same, and what's changed over the years. With the SD2SNES Pro sharing much with its predecessor, I encourage you to check out @Qtis' review right here before diving into this.
With our review published in 2014, much has happened in the way of progress for this popular cartridge. At the time of publication, the latest firmware was v0.1.6. Though supporting the vast majority of the SNES library, notable exclusions included both the SA-1 and SuperFX special chips. Though a mere 35 games between these two chips, the likes of Kirby, Yoshi's Island, Star Fox, and Super Mario RPG remained unplayable. Of course, thanks to the cartridge's FPGA chip and the continued efforts of creator ikari_01 and others, most notably RedGuy for their SA-1 and SuperFX support, things are now different.
