Honestly, this article shouldn’t be called how to. I’m trying to make heads or tails of this documentation but I would love to see more. I just want to recompile Mystical Ninja starring Goemon as it’s my favorite N64 game from my childhood.

Just a thought, remakes like this tend to appeal to people in the PC crowd. We’ve all moved to PC for various different reasons. Better games, better prices, better hardware? Emulation and software preservation is the name of the game for a lot of people. Those people are working everyday to make things like the steam deck the dream game console they always wanted. That’s the kind of person who will go back and replay Final Fantasy 7 four or five times.
There are a lot of Android based Pocket devices out there like the retroid. Imagine having a retroid or ayn odin that can also double as a wii u controller.
The same reason a movie theater owner can’t show Pee Wee’s Big Adventure every weekend. Value is derived from exclusivity. Exercising your “rights” to a work means preventing anyone from having access to the work unless you are paid when and how you want.
If NVK is good enough maybe Nvidia will consider dropping the proprietary driver because no one will want to use it and it will cost too much for them to maintain a separate driver.
A man can dream.
Is there an alternative way to register a domain that cannot be seized? It seems like domain seizure is the one thing that enables internet censorship. Is there some sort of block chain base registrars out there? I’m genuinely curious.
Depends on the usage. That’s the gamble you take. I would maybe buy three and put two in a mirror and keep the third one as a replacement?
That’s 240$ for three drives without warranty though… Nevermind I’d prefer to buy two new Toshiba X300 new for 210$ a piece and forget the headache and get the warranty.
Sometimes you get what you pay for … Sometimes
I wonder if this age of consolidated net access if Google, Facebook,Twitter will be for or against this.
Time to invest in some foreign VPNs.
I find that when I’m feeling depressed and lefty, singing out loud helps me. Maybe you too can sing along!
“Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men? It is the music of the people Who will not be slaves again! When the beating of your heart Echoes the beating of the drums There is a life about to start When tomorrow comes!”
Don’t feel shame, be heard, be loud, and beat the drum!
(Yes this is les mis)
Rem4 has the energy of a movie that was made because James Cameron walked into Capcom main offices, met with the presidents, stood in front of a whiteboard and wrote “Resident Evil$” making sure the s was notably a big red dollar sign $. Everyone applauded and then they made whatever the hell they wanted.
and I love that about it.
(Note: this is basically how we got the move Aliens 1986)
Are there alternative firmwares available for shield?
Don’t worry, Nintendo will make a switch 2 and all the problems will be fixed!

Oh my … That’s awful. I’m just discovering this myself. Even IGN put out an article https://www.ign.com/articles/near-bsnes-remembrance
Maybe the blue ray box should have an entire SSD in them or some kind of NextGen Compact flash as long as it’s a standard format and not a proprietary format like a switch game. You can buy blank CDs, DVDs, SD cards and there are standards in place to make them readable by entire fleets of devices.
It’s harder for games but I’m coming at this from a games preservation angle.
Games keep getting bigger and require installation to drive to effectively load assets quickly. I really envy the ability to not have to perform an installation to the device. If your game was simply its own storage device again then you could have that plug and play like experience back and also have that ~4GBps read that even the cheapest NVME drives can offer.
I have DVDs, but I also have MKV files, and I have the ability to go between these formats. I suggested something like flatpak because a universal physical media image format for games would be just one more way to easily preserve content offline indefinitely and neatly keep it pretty platform agnostic.
That was my train of thought. I know the likelihood of this being done by a real company is slim to none because of DMCA and over engineering another format is pointless if they can force everything to be download only IRL but I would like to push back and I can’t easily archive all this stuff forever on an ever growing 48TB Nas on my home. I would like offline ownership and convenience please.
If it’s going to be too expensive for a company to put Alan Wake Two onto physical media then I’d like a way to do it myself so it continues to work when epic decides they want to pull a Warner Bros and rip it off the internet forever and claim it was a loss to get tax breaks. It would also be cool if it didn’t have to install and it just started.
I understand the difficulty involved with that but we’re halfway there with software running containerized on Linux.
A man can dream.
I want this so much. I dream about making cartridges that are glorified PCIE NVME caddys and the slot on your console being essentially a PCIEx4 slot.
Maybe we could port some games and wrap them up as flatkpaks.
I’m just spit balling but it could work.
I agree. A digital file is written to disk yet has no second hand value because of the nature of replication. Your books have value after you’ve read them because it’s not easily replicated and has more value beyond its basic consumption. It can be collected, displayed, traded, burned… It has all sorts of intrinsic value beyond the words on the page.
It’s as if the printing of the media to a physical device in the end provides you a solid copy but not the rights to the work contained inside of it. You’re not allowed to modify and distribute those works as that violates copyright.
I feel like the individual ownership of physical media actually protected copyright and now in the digital era, the lack of ownership is subverting its own purpose. We as a people never understood or acknowledged the implicit agreement that came with the acquisition of our books and DVDs. We ignore all the legal messaging and even made fun of it. We laughed when we realized “How could they ever enforce this?!” And so we didn’t care.
Now here we are, learning in real time how it will be enforced.

Im pretty sure this method utilizes RDP. I’m thinking about getting an Intel ARC380 GPU for PCI-E pass through to a windows VM and doing the same thing. I’ve tested this with an Nvidia Tesla k80 (though it’s not a very practical card to have on a desktop). You should be able to get enhanced performance out of the VM if you enforce video encoding on GPU via group policy.
The only downsides are :
