I recently formatted my SD card to work with some other apps, but saved what I had on there to put back on the card later - basically just Media Player and a handful of emulators, one of them being FUSE. When I tried to start up FUSE again I get an error that appears for about a second, then boots me back to the Homebrew Channel. The error says something like "cannot find fuse.font" then somethinby DevilRy - Homebrew Applications
Quotedaniel_c_w(and just because I do not agrre, does not mean it is not valid or the reasoning for the people in charge) I didn't say that it wasn't...? For the most part I have no problem with Nintendo, or whoever for that matter, protecting their bottom line. It's business 101. Quotedaniel_c_w How do you tell? Are there developers who said, it is not worth the risk? Yesby DevilRy - Offtopic
Quotedaniel_c_w I asked: Did anybody from Nintendo (or the Media Industry) ever claim, it (region protection) would restrict piracy? And it looks like, your answer is yes :D I misunderstood the wording of your question. I thought by "it" you meant Nintendo/"Media Industry." No, I don't think they ever out-right said they use region protection on their consoles in an effort to curb piracy,by DevilRy - Offtopic
Quotedaniel_c_w At first glance, I do not see anything about regional protection on the page. So what's the point? Um, that's exactly my point. You asked what Nintendo does about piracy and I provided an official link detailing their position on it. They never mention why they region lockout all their non-portable consoles, yet they do it *every* time. Ostensibly this falls under theby DevilRy - Offtopic
Quotedaniel_c_w Did anybody from Nintendo (or the Media Industry) ever claim, it would restrict piracy? Nintendo's been campaigning for stricter piracy laws for over two decades... (when HK and East Asian developers were making little yellow pirate Famicom cartridges) But besides what they actively participate in, their policies are apparent in their business model. Despite this thby DevilRy - Offtopic
I wasn't aware that you yourself had to manually delete your own shop channel account in order to access a foreign one, but still... Far be it from me to question Nintendo's "right" to make dumb/questionable decisions, but I'm just frustrated that they keep doing so in regards to region lockouts. I think this behavior/policy/treatment/whatever you want to call it also arguably cby DevilRy - Offtopic
I couldn't really think of any place else to put this thread, but here goes... Every time I get frustrated with Nintendo it invariably involves region protection. With the newish shop channel updates, using Any Region Changer to go to a different shop channel country to actually *PURCHASE* let's say a recently released, muscle-bound & ridiculous Japanese Wii Ware/arcade title (whichby DevilRy - Offtopic
I've found that when using any homebrew with the Loadmii/Bannerbomb combination the WiiMote will invariably stop working. What's frustrating is that in every case the WiiMote will work initially, but within a time frame of about one to two minutes the controller just goes 'dead.' None of the homebrew apps themselves freeze (music still runs, etc) but since pressing any buttonsby DevilRy - Homebrew General
This blog seems like it's deliberately spreading disinformation... BTW if this Comex guy is sick of people asking him about it, he should at least release an update about the status of it. All this hearsay is freaking ridiculous.by DevilRy - Homebrew General
Thanks for the advice, guys! After some investigation I don't think the Wii would run SSF, which has some pretty gnarly technical restrictions I guess I didn't notice at first. For instance, SSF requires the processor to have the SSE2 instruction set, which I don't think Power PC/Hollywood does, correct me if I'm wrong.by DevilRy - Homebrew Applications
I know there's already Yabause Wii, but has anyone tried this emulator? Do you have to have Linux on your Wii to run it? I've tried it on Vista and it seems to run pretty poorly, much worse than SSF (which actually runs fairly smooth). I'll have to wait until the 4.0 menu workaround gets released in any case, I just wanted to collect some info on this and other Saturn emulators befby DevilRy - Homebrew Applications
