Comment on Nintendo sues to prevent Trump from dodging full tariff refunds
SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 hours agoI’ve only been pirating Nintendo games since the Wii era. When they released the Wii and stopped providing support for the old consoles they were dead to me. Before that I was able to get my NES serviced for $35 at Nintendo of America in Redmond, Washington and that included new parts and my games all getting cleaned.

You ever play any GCN in your travels? Wondering if I’m better off hacking my wii (due to the GCN being natively built in) or if emulation through something like dolphin might be better.
Never got to experience the gamecube all that much so im open to ideas. I do have one of those nice wireless wavebird controllers which has me slightly gravitating to hacking the wii

If you have a quality PC, I always promote emulation over hardware, just because modern PC hardware can do things like let you play old games at higher resolutions and framerates.
Also, if you want to use those Wavebirds on PC, you can use receiver for them in something like this:

I like hacking the old systems, but I have more fun hacking them than actually continuing to game on them since using my PC and streaming the games to other screens is just more flexible for my needs.
