genuinely dont see a reason to buy a ps4/xbone as i know theyll shut off all the servers sooner than later to force all the scrubs to their new platforms
i guess bloodborne looked kinda fun from what ive seen of it but idk

People beg them for new IPs constantly, but whenever they actually do it they never sell. Yet a collection of old Mario games running on shitty emulators became a top seller.

if we look at nintendos format (making both hardware AND a lot of 1st party games), their peak in creativity
imo happened when they had sega competing in that same ring. since sega kysd and went software only, theyve had no real competition. sony and microshaft consoles are near-identical in terms of games and compete directly with each other, while nintendo kinda exists on its own.
this lets nintendo succeed by simply shitting out the same IPs theyve had since the mid 80s, as they know they will have dozens and dozens of exclusives people will buy their hardware for. meanwhile sony and microsoft eat each other over the small handful of exclusive games they can get exclusive licensing deals over

No.900
>>501You can avoid it. Easier to do with super old firmware exploits but even with later exploits you just use a cfw emunand and a "clean" emunand that passes firmware checks without burning fuses. Nintendo generally only detects modded consoles if you go online with a partition that has hacked games installed, so if you use a separate partition with none of the bells and whistles you can usually ghost by. Always check the current state of the scene before updates though, just in case you need to update the hack with the official firmware.
tldr hack it with a clean sysnand boot option, cfw sysnand boot option, "clean" emunand partition (online play), regular emunand partition (pirated games etc)
No.903
>>900Separate partitions are a thing now? That's pretty cool. Part of why I never hacked my 3DS back in the day was because of those banwaves that happened every now and again.
No.904
>>903Yeah, though I think the classic way to avoid it was to use a separate sd card (I think that's what most people did for the 3ds as well). My experience is people usually mess up when there is a firmware mismatch when they connect online, like downgrading your firmware and forgetting to upgrade it again before you go online, or having non e-shop games installed when you go online. Oh! And the cartridge reader for the switch has its own fuses, with no exploit known, so unless you're willing to crack open your console and keep two separate card readers you're stuck deciding if you want to be able to use your card reader on new games and not be able to downgrade firmware or be able to downgrade your firmware in the future but not use your card reader at all. For pirates it probably doesn't matter, but it's worth considering if you're a fag like me who just wanted to customize his console and not really pirate.
No.905
>>903IIRC the 3DS banwaves only hit retards who had botnet mode turned on or did stupid shit like set an SDK app as their favorite game
these days you can just install a bootloader hack to the firmware and CFW directly to the NAND and nobody will give a fuck as long as you don't play pirated games online, and I think there's even a workaround for that
No.906
>>904switch is not worth hacking tbh
there is ONE game worth playing and it's online cartoon little girl asses
everything else is either shit, multiplat where Switch is the worst version or both
No.907
>>906Meh, you're mostly correct, except about the multiplat part I think being worse - I'd rather avoid soyny and some games I still prefer physical; for things that are digital only, though, go pc. Still, bing bing wahoo isn't terribad as a collectathon instead of normal instanced style since yooka lalee flopped and every other collectathon is a remake (see spyro), and mario rabbids may be a dumb concept but it was executed well. I think remakes being the switch's best games are its major weakness, but whatever.
No.909
>>906I think there are a few decent exclusive single player games. Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade 2 come to mind. But it's so few that you might as well just buy them rather than gimping your console.

The most "fun" parts were the sengoku castle and the on-rails bit at the very end where you possess gay bowser, so not great. I found out the guy I borrowed it from was a fucking furfag too.

>ninja gaidenthe first one was okay idk people give it a hard time because you have to replay the last 3 levels if you die at the final boss but after doing it twice its just a time sink which isnt really great other than that played uh that xbox game but only at a friends so didnt start from the beginning nor beat the end so idk

Also, the dynamic difficulty feature actually feels really innovative and modern, I'm surprised it never took on tbh (though it's at lvl. 1 for me most of the time because I fucking suck lol).
